“Alright, alright, got everything I need?” Glenn Hunter muttered to himself, pacing around the room. Life was being hectic for the 20 year old, and he was currently in the middle of prepping himself for a job interview. You know, boring adult stuff.

“Wallet, check. Keys, check. Name-brand cellphone, double check. Don’t need my resume because they’ll have a copy…should I take my own just in case?” Glenn stopped pacing for a moment, looking puzzled*y at an audience that wasn’t there. “No, no point, they’ll definitely have a copy is something burning?”

If his neighbors across from his apartment were to look in his window, they would see a very humorous sight indeed. A grown man, dressed all to the works * white shirt, black tie, black overcoat, slacks, an dress shoes – frantically sprinting from his bedroom to his kitchen.

Once there, Glenn quickly relinquished his breakfast from the scorching hold of his five dollar toaster. Grabbing at it once, the toast’s fiery exterior lashed out at him, causing him to reflexively pull his hand back, shaking the pain away. But Glenn would be the victor of this duel, pulling the toast out of the steel grasp and onto a plate. Victory, and slightly burnt toast, were his.

He made his way back to his room, both to allow his toast to cool and make sure he looked decent. His hair was still messy, there wasn’t enough product in the world to get it to lay down flat, so he eventually stopped trying. However, on days like these, he at least made it look good-messy. Slightly spiked, on the top, bangs reaching to just above his emerald eyes, and flat all the way to the bottom of his neck. Kind of like a five-o’-clock shadow, but for you hair. He had made sure to shave, and his suit was still immaculate.

It was time.

Grabbing his keys from his pocket and his toast from the counter, Glenn took a bite and went to unlock his door.

Nervousness was causing his stomach to toss and turn, and his vision to blur slightly. Wait, no, nervousness doesn’t cause your vision to blur, or swirl like this.

Was he passing out? He’d never been that anxious before! Except for whenever he was in a closed space. Closed spaces sometimes made him freak out a bit. Unfortunately for him, before he could even brace himself against his wall, his vision faded to black, and he felt himself falling…

Gavin would now sigh looking out over the desert then deciding with no water it would be more foolish to go into the desert. He would stand there continueing his gaze upon the desert. If seeing a man he would immediatly scream at him loudly saying: Hey you! And would jump up and down waving with both arms.

*What the hell’? A chill ran down Asia’s spine, though that moment of panic quickly gave way to frustration. WHAT THE HELL?! So descriptive… *What the hell’ did he mean?! Was he in trouble or not?

*Kyle… Kyle. Are you there? What’s happening?! Talk to me** Asia said, trying her best to keep an even tone, the phone speaker pressed hard against her ear. If Kyle had heard her, he apparently made no indication - his only response, it seemed, was the frustratingly vague sound of splashing.

In desperation, or maybe to take her mind off the agonising waiting game, she looked up – just in time to spot movement. Straining her eyes, she could make out a humanoid figure. Was that the rescue party?

“Kyle… I think I see someone.* Asia spoke quietly into the phone, unable to find her voice.

After a few moments of sprinting away from the hand, Tyler was feeling the cruelty of the heat. He wasn't a bad distance runner; however, his hometown was nothing like this sweltering desert and it was taking a told on his stamina. Already his mouth was starting to feel dry and his tongue felt sticky against the sides of his mouth.

The fatigue sobered his panic and Tyler took a moment to look back at where the hand was. As he turned he saw something else moving on the far side of the desert, but he ignored it at first to get a look at where the hand was. About a hundred meters back he saw a humanoid shape shambling toward him with something in its hand. He couldn't make out details that well from this distance, but it looked sort of like a mummy.

Seeing a monster in front of him unsettled Tyler; though it seemed to be moving quite slowly. He was feeling far from calm given the sudden string of events, but he didn't feeling as frightened as he should be, staring at a living, or undead rather, monster with nothing but empty space between them. Most likely the heat getting to me , Tyler thought.

Glancing back to the movement he saw as he turned, he saw another figure waving their arms. He couldn't really tell if it was another monster from this distance, but the gesture didn't seem too menacing. He began walking in that direction, slower now, and draping his jacket over his head and shoulders for shade. He still kept his pace fast enough that he was making distance between himself and the pursuing creature, glancing back every few seconds.

Gavin now smiled seeing the man coming towards him. Seeing this he now stopped waving just standing there waiting. Gavin did not want to appear hostile. Instead of waving his hands franticlly above his head he now focused on yelling and trying to communicate with the person. He would now scream: Hello! Im Gavin!

Asia/Kyle

Kyle's mention of standing in a lake seemed to have gone completely unnoticed in Asia's immediate panic. Kyle, meanwhile, had realized his shoes were getting wet and immediately backpedaled to the edge of the forest, but Asia would still be able to see him. He also realized the temperature had increased significantly, and paused to remove his coat as Asia continued her panic. Underneath the coat was a plain white *-shirt.

He brought the phone back to his ear, just in time to hear Asia mention seeing somebody. Suddenly Kyle found himself looking off into the distance and seeing someone as well. Putting two and two together, he finally spoke.

"Er... is he wearing a white *-shirt? Holding a winter coat? Incredibly handsome?" He asked, the 'incredibly handsome' part being phrased somewhat awkwardly. "Oh god why did I say that..." He whispered to himself as he pulled the phone away slightly, although if Asia had been listening closely she would have heard him anyways.

Vlad

The monster stumbled backwards as Vlad's foot struck between the legs, although the sound it let out was more mild discomfort than extreme pain. Perhaps the 'giant monkey' had a resistance?

Still, it was enough of an opening for Vlad's next attack to come through. There was a cracking sound as the kneecap shifted, and the creature let out a shriek. It immediately reacted by swinging its hand out, ready to backhand Vlad in the face. If such an attack made impact, it would send Vlad to the ground and even knock out a few teeth...

Tyler/Gavin

As Gavin yelled at Tyler, the creature would continue its relentless stroll. Fortunately it still moved at the same pace, and it would be a few minutes before it actually caught up to them, so they had some time to chat.

Angel

Angel would wake up on the side of what appeared to be some sort of mountain, made of hard red stone that was warm to the touch. She was currently lying at a thirty degree angle, her head facing upwards, but the mountain seemed to get steeper the higher it went, and although she would not be able to see the top she would be able to see a massive pillar of smoke, which suggested she was on some sort of volcano.

If she looked downwards, she would find that the volcano continued to descend until eventually it evened out and met the ground. The area she was in seemed to be perfectly square, with several other areas surrounding it. Off in the west was a forest with grey soil and dead trees, but a massive stone tower was visible just over the horizon. To the south was a field of ice. And to the north, a vast cornfield with the occasional scarecrow... and a giant crop circle in the middle.

Dexter Keetings

Dexter would awaken in the aforementioned field of ice, and find that it was... totally barren. Or at least, would appear as such. Just a square mile of ice, with what was presumably water underneath. The temperature was a bit chilly, but so long as he kept moving and got out quickly he wouldn't get hypothermia.

To the north was a towering volcano, evidenced by the smoke leaking out of the top. To the west, an old neighborhood that appeared to be deserted - windows were smashed or boarded up, and no signs of life could be seen, at least not from this distance. Past the town, a bit on the northwest side, he would also see a massive stone tower. And finally, to the south was a perfectly flat field with a small abandoned-looking castle in the middle.

Glenn Hunter

Glenn would wake up directly in the center of the aforementioned crop circle. The circle itself was maybe forty feet in diameter, with two smaller circles about fifteen feet in diameter each connected to the main one, evenly spaced apart. If he looked over the corn itself he would be able to see a volcano to the south and a large tower to the southwest.

Angel woke up in a very strange place like she was on a mountain. She was lying at a thirty degree angle, her head facing upwards. As she sat up felt very dizzy,scared and very confused. She felt a ground with her hand and it felt warm. She looked up and saw massive pillar of smoke that's when she realize that she might be on a volcano. She looked down and saw the it continue to the ground that even out. She looked around and saw a forest with grey soil and dead trees, with a massive stone tower was visible just over the horizon in the west, a field of ice in the south and a vast cornfield with the occasional scarecrow with a giant crop circle in the middle in the north. Now she needed to figure out where she was going to go.

A few mins a later she decided to get off this volcano to head towards the ground. She felt much better so, she started to climb down. It was very difficult because she never climb before. She climb down slowly so she didn't fall. 30 minutes later, she finally reached the bottom on the Volcano. Now she need to figure out what to do next as she rested.
