You open your eyes. You look around you. You are sitting on top of a radio tower. All around you is a forest and then some old buildings. In the center of the building, you see a huge tower.

You: [ Where am I? I thought I died? What is going on? ]

You see an Ak-47 sitting near you with a backpack near it. The bag contains ammo, food, water, and first aid kit.

You hear sirens. Loud sirens.

You: [ Is this siren head, wait a minut- ]

You see an explosion in front of you. Its a nuke. It is far away but you see a small mushroom cloud. You measure it with your thumb. You are safe here. But the shockwave will be here.

You quickly use the zipline to get down from the radio tower and run toward the buildings. You enter the building and quickly run inside the basement.

The earth shake under your feet. You wait for 12 hours inside. You hear four sirens in total.

You: Four nuke in total. Has the war started?

You take your bagpack and Ak and head outside. You see mist around the building. You hear building screeching. One building falls near the building you are in. The buildings are in pretty bad shape.

You look around and see a group of people in hazmat suit.

UNKNOWN MAN: Search for civilians.

You hide behind a car and look at them.

You: Who are these people?

You feel something touch your head.

UNKNOWN MAN: Don't move.

You: I am not hostile.

UNKNOWN MAN: Neither am I.

The man lower his gun. You look at him. The man has a hazmat.

UNKNOWN MAN: How are you alive?

You: What do you mean?

UNKNOWN MAN: The air is toxic. You should be dead by now.

You: I don't feel anything.

UNKNOWN MAN: Here take this mask.

You take the mask and wear it.

UNKNOWN MAN: Under the car now.

You: What?

UNKNOWN MAN: Hide under the car quick.

You slide under the car and look around. You see nothing suspicious.

You: I don't se-

UNKNOWN MAN: Shhh look over there.

The group of people get attacked by something.

You: What happened to them?

UNKNOWN MAN: I don't know. Just keep quiet.

The man stand up and slowly walk toward the bodies. He take a picture of them and comes back to you slowly.

UNKNOWN MAN: That was tense.

You: What are you doing?

UNKNOWN MAN: These are proof that those things exist.

You: Hey but what is it?

You feel something. The man hides under the same car as you.

You: Wh-

He place his hand on your face.

You hear something walking on top of the car.

You hold your breath. The car goes back to normal. The man gets out from under the car and help you.

UNKNOWN MAN: Let's go it's not safe here.

You follow the man to a bunker. He stops in front of you.

UNKNOWN MAN: Wait let me open the door. Umm can you look out while I try to remember the password.

You: You forget it?

UNKNOWN MAN: No it's in my mind just need to remember.

UNKNOWN MAN: maybe it was 1265.

He tries it but its wrong.

UNKNOWN MAN: maybe 5621.

The password is wrong again.

UNKNOWN MAN: I remember now its 257359.

The door open to the bunker. You walk down the stairs and after opening another door. You reach DECONTAMINATION AREA. The door behind you shut.

The DECONTAMINATION starts. After decontamination another door in front of you opens and you enter the door.

UNKNOWN MAN: Place your mask over there.

While you place it. The man remove his hazmat suit and before you can look at his face. You hear a voice of woman behind you.

UNKNOWN WOMAN: You are back?

The man look at woman. She sees both of you and take out her gun.

UNKNOWN MAN: Wait, Anne. It's me.
