Crouching Tiger, Hidden Cabin. Welcome to the Jungle

This is an older dream. Possibly a year ago. I was in the military. A fellow soldier and I jumped out of an airplane and parachuted into a clearing. A chain fence was nearby and we crawled underneath it. On the other side was a thick, lush jungle. We start running, determined to complete our mission, whatever it was. Next thing, we see a menacing Bengal Tiger stalking us. As soon as we start running, the tiger does as well, moving faster than we are. My partner grabs the back of my jacket, I spin around while lifting my M16 machine gun, and start firing at it while running backwards. It jumps around from side to side as if dodging the bullets. Finally, it retreats and we don't see it again. Still running, we make it to a shelter. A cabin in the middle of the jungle?! It's later in the day, turning night when we go inside. The place is lit with torches and we walk into a room with a fireplace. Sitting in there talking is my friend's mom, Lisa and Aaron Lewis of Staind. What a strange couple of people to see together in a cabin in the middle of the jungle!
