What did I tap into?

After a look around through the<b> bush </font></b>I returned to camp and they had a nice small fire going between a couple of thick limbs.
The lazyman's fire was the term for it.
If you didn't have a way to cut the wood then that's what you did.
I made some toast and a cup of tea and we prepared for the night by simply rolling out our sleeping bags.
It would be a fine night but I sensed the pot I'd smoked would release a multitude of phantasmagoric images that all vied for my attention.
It was the stuff of dreams that whatever you'd been thinking about during the day would manifest into something meaningful during your dreams.
At first I relived my dreams about the quaint life I'd previously had.
It was an innocent time for me but now I'd had visions about a confusing future where a Dantesque reality brought all the terrors of the revelation to life.
The World had turned into a technological feast and what ufo's showed they could do was the icing on the cake.
Now it seems they could cross the galaxy in four months. Would that take them to the Andromeda spiral.
Some thought our galaxies had already made contact.
Or perhaps they traveled through other dimensions and that seemed extremely likely as it would mean they could avoid crashing into things.
The craft could fly through water too with no obvious friction.
Really we only had a short time to get our act together to decide if we wanted to get along.
Despite the critics I think this had a good chance of happening.
I stayed awake for some hours too which meant I dreamed into the morning and then it was that my dreams took me back to what I'd watched about the androids that were fast developing.
They mirrored humans too and a hypnotist showed how the ones he'd put in a trance believed everything they were told.
They would only see what they were told they could see too.
The drones human made worked that way too and they'd interact only with what they were programmed to see.
In the dream I had a control box that I'd adjust to make the drones act in certain ways and they'd do all that without acknowledging I was there.
They could be courteous but with a turn of the dial they'd start to hunt each other and use weapons against each other.
You'd have your fun just like a computer game but then one of the androids came over to me and stared me right in the face.
It wasn't supposed to do that and its eyes were incredibly alive, showing the distress in its questioning glance.
I went to pick up the control box on the bench seat beside me but it stretched our its hand to stop me, then it reached for the knife holstered to its belt.
That's the last thing I remembered from the dream.
I crawled out feeling disturbed and shabby and one of the guys asked if I'd slept well.
"Oh man" I said, "I think we have to start planning our defense, I feel like I'd just wandered into the future !"
