The Muffin is Forever with Me

I'm not exactly sure how this dream started out, but I know at one point my mom, Jo, and I were searching through various toy stores for Pokemon products. In each of the stores, the Pokemon displays would be quite strange; they'd look like a giant gumball machine, and all the Pokemon products would be inside vending machine capsules. Most of the stores we went to were sold out, but I think in the end we found one that was still stocked.
I'm not sure what happened during the transition between that and the next chapter of the dream, though I was suddenly in my house, in my room. For some reason, I was really scared that someone was going to come there and kill or do something terrible to me. The fear came out of nowhere; there was really no logical explanation to it. It might've been influenced by discussing the general areas we lived in with Rainy and Dapple in the real world. I got onto my bed, and pulled back the curtains. A red light from a laser shone through the window, and strangely it was in the shape of a roaring tiger's head. Seconds later, a huge beam of white light resembling a Hyper Beam blasted the left side of the house, reducing it to rubble. I think at this point, I either realized I was dreaming, or woke up for a minute or so. But after that little intervention, the dream resumed at my house. It was suddenly repaired, but I still had that strange feeling that something bad was about to happen. I looked out the window, and watched as a shadowy figure and what appeared to be a dog crept toward the stairs. I ran into the living room, and warned my family that we needed to hide or something. They told me that I was out of my mind, and the only way we'd be completely safe was if we killed the guy outside (who could also apparently be blamed for the Hyper Beam attack earlier).
