I woke up in the house of my enemy, the sun was setting and the lights in the town were dim. I wandered onto the streets and my first sight was disease control enforcement who looked at me but did not accost me.
I looked down and I was wearing battle dress and armor, I knocked on my armor and it was sturdy. I continued and as I looked around the place was familiar but nothing like when I had seen it. They let the mountains and forests burn. All that was trailers, houses and mobile homes were now apartment blocks.
I walked to convenience store as it was closing before the sunset, it had walk up and drive through windows; nobody was allowed inside when it was open. A mad man stopped his car and said I looked like I didn't have a weapon. He then began to punch and kick at me but I fended him off, he began to flee jumping off a raised concrete portion almost getting hit by a semi-truck.
The police saw this and began to chase him but were powerless to do anything to him. I looked around to figure out the new lay of the land from the heightened concrete platform. The country and suburbs now looked like micro cities, where there were trees on the sidewalk there were now bushes and cactus's.
I saw a fast food place and decided to get food, but making my way there the paths were not like they once were and I had to walk miles around. There were no schools or churches, there was nothing but apartments and work places. I decided half way the restaurant that I should instead look for my animals as they had been separated from me, then I awoke.
It could all just be my subconscious, I know.
