You step though the opening into the bright light of day. Stretched before you is the ruins of what must have been a great city. You can see the skeletons of skyscrapers that must have overshadowed the tallest buildings from your time, poking out of the rubble and debris. You begin to get a weird feeling that something very important was missing. Then it dawns on you, there are no sounds. You would also expect to feel the wind blowing but feel it not. You look around for the person who dragged you here, but there isn't anyone around. You feel glad that no one is around to see you as naked as the day you were born. You feel a sence of lonliness at the fact that the person is gone. You look at the building you just left and see that there is just a doorway into a huge hill. The top of the hill looks as though something hit it. You feel the ground begin to shake and here a rumbling from deep in the earth. All of a sudden half of the hill caves in crushing the doorway and the passage beyond.
You decide that you will need to get cloths and then look for the person to thank him or her for saving you. The only place the person could have gone was into the ruins anyway. You notice that the ground around you is worn out from what appears to be people traffic. You see that the worn places form a path of sorts the heads in the direction of the ruined city. You begin to follow it. You walk the path for what seems like hours coming only a little closer to to your destination. You see what appears to be an old tire, looks as though it when over stakes. You wonder what happened, but figure that even if you knew nothing would change, you are still naked and still miles from the city. You truge on.
After going a short distance, you hear a low sound, the first since the hill caved in. You see a cloud of dust coming up behind you and hear the sound getting louder. You duck into the tall grass and hide. The thing passes you then suddenly stops dead in it's tracks. You get the feeling that you've been discovered, but are fasinated but the thing on the path. It is what appears to be a mechanical bug. It has a central fusalage and six legs. It isn't very big, maybe big enough for three or four people. You see a man jump out and walk over to the tire. He picks it up and opens the back of the bug thing and puts it in. Then he walks back to where the tire sat and backs up a few feet. He bends down and touches something on the road. He stands up and while looking down walks towards you. You freeze. You hold you breath hoping that he passes you by. You try to make yourself smaller as though you could just disapper. He stops at the edge of the grass amd looks around a bit. He then calls out; "I know you are there. Come out or i'm coming in."
