Last night I dreamt that I was in some house I've never been in before, it was a good house, I didn't get any bad vibes from it or anything, as I'm walking through the house I come into an empty room, it's carpeted but there is nothing else in it, there is a hallway going out of the room on the other side, I walk into the hallway and I run into a kid, by the looks of him he's between 12 and 14 years old, we talk for a minute, he seems like a nice kid. Out of nowhere he challenges me to a grappling match, I'm kind of shocked by this but I accept his challenge, the kid takes his shirt off and tells me to meet him in the empty room, he's got this smirk on his face, like he really thinks he's going to beat me. So I meet him in the other room, we both stretch out a little and then the match begins, I'm fully expecting to just man handle him. We clinch up with eachother, and to my surprise even though he's half my size this kid is STRONG, definitely as strong as me, or even stronger, his strength takes me by surprise and is pushing me back across the room, I get my wits back about me and start giving it everything I've got, I start pushing him back now.
I get him back to about the center of the room and now he starts going harder too. Now we're in the center of the room, we've got over/under hooks and we're both trying to push the other up against the opposite wall. Even though he's stronger than me I am still a lot bigger, outweighing him by 50 or more pounds, so I'm able to hold my ground, I get the feeling that if he were my own size I would have lost already. Neither one of us is getting any advantage. Suddenly he pulls backwards out of the clinch and shoots in on me for a double leg takedown, I sprawl on him and put him in a front headlock. I'm just holding onto the headlock leaning my weight down on him, I don't want to go for any big moves because I'm afraid he'll get back to his feet.
Suddenly he pulls guard on me and now he's on his back and I'm on top of him, I try to move to a better position, I get to half guard, where he now has one of my legs wrapped up in both of his, he starts violently thrashing around, it's all I can do to hold onto him and keep him on the ground, so now just like before I'm just trying to keep my weight on him and stop him from getting up, I'm crossfacing him now. His body is tense, I know that he's going to get out of this if I relax at all. Suddenly he explodes, and catches me by surprise, we're scrambling now and I end up taking his back, he's violently struggling now to get me off him, I'm exhausted now and I'm just clinging on for dear life trying to keep his back, I'm getting thrown around now and my head gets slammed into the floor, but I still hold on. Suddenly though he stops struggling quite so much, I can tell he's exhausted now too, he's beginning to lose his strength, I try to choke him but he defends well against it, next I try to put him in a full nelson, but I don't have the strength to put much pressure on it, so I let go. I try one more time to choke him and this time I am able to lock in the choke hold, he tries his hardest to get out of it but he doesn't have the strength left so he gives up, I think he's just going to let me choke him unconscious, but he eventually submits to the hold. I let go of the choke and roll off of him. Neither one of us has the strength to stand up yet, we're too worn out, we're both just laying on the floor wheezing for breath, neither one of us is saying anything.
Finally I'm able to get to my feet, my knees are shaky but I manage to stay standing, he gets up at the same time as me. We shake hands and he congratulates me on winning, and then challenges me to a rematch, I don't feel like I can handle another match but I accept it anyways, the second match is about to start, but at this point I wake up.
