Interplanetary Travels

Overview: Starting on Mars, Bob B. and I are with other travelers and we are packing up to return to Earth. This interplanetary travel seems rather casual, considering where we were was essentially a house with all the amenities. As we're about to head out, Bob and I each go back to grab duffle bags we needed back on Earth. Flash forward, I wake up in Wyoming in a small room on the north side of a house. I realize I'm not back in Minnesota where I'm supposed to be, the sky is a rainy blue color. As I move about the house, I find Adam K. and we begin to discuss our need to return home, likely using the Amtrak (which we searched the routes for in our discussion). I look out a sliding door to the west and see a woman pulled up to my car in the street trying to get into my car (it appeared that her car had died). She's talking intensely on the phone with, who I'm assuming was her boyfriend/husband/etc, and she barged into the house. After being on edge from her attempting to use my car, I approach her immediately upon walking in the door and push her up against the wall, bombarding her with questions. Her attitude quickly becomes more promiscuous, to which I didn't ignore. Another flash forward and I'm in Idaho, with an eerie orange colored sky, so somehow took the wrong direction on the Amtrak. With a strong urge to get back, I head outside to find Bob/Adam deciding to drive their vehicle back. Sam S pulls up in his pickup and offers to drive but as I open the door I decide I need my car. I grab my duffle bag from the front seat when Sam says "take the 3 on the right." Slightly confused, I turn around and see a swarm of 30-40 zombie/cannibal/post-apocalyptic type people slowly walking towards us. Before I can react, Sam drives his pickup right down the middle of the swarm, turns around, and I hop in the back as we jet out of there. A few miles or so down the road, we his inside a cement apartment building waiting for the zombie-likes to walk by. As they're passing, we walk out back toward our vehicle with scarves over our faces but we're quickly recognized. Again, we sprint toward the pickup and fly down the road and drive right into a body of water. Fortunately, the vehicle floats but at a very slow pace. Many of the adult zombies followed us along the road but the child ones were in inner tubes floating at a similar pace as us. In desperation, I start to drown any that come within reach. End.
