Your vision soons return to you, and your laying on the ground. All items you previously had are gone, including your clothes. However, in front of you is a building.
"You have only one life, spend it wisely. Inside the building are clothes and supplies to help you until your inevitable death." A voice says in your head.

For some reason, I don't really mind being commando. Nor do I really trust a creepy voice after I just disappeared into basically another dimension. So before I go in, I walk around, inspecting the building. I count how many floors it has, the windows, the doors, how tall it is. Everything. If I'm going to play it wise, I'll have to be safe about this.
I can't help but grin, at the complete absurdity of what just happened. One moment I'm helping a friend out, next thing I'm probably passed out hallucinating I'm commando.
Oh well, I've had stranger dreams. |

| There is only one floor, with 2 windows at the side. 2 doors, one at the front, another at the back. The building is decently sized, and through the windows you can see knives, food that can last a little while, a poster in the middle of the room, 2 shirts and 2 pairs of pants. |

I finish up my funny round about tour of the building. Seems legitimate enough, no visible traps or anything. Still, to be on the safe side I go through the back door, and make sure to close it behind me after I go in. Then I take the knife out, and stick it into my pocket. Afterword I just put on some pants, and roll my supplies up in the shirts, including the other pair of pants. I look up to the sky, pretending I'm some sort of holy dude as I spread my arms out and jokingly ask,
"Oh lord and savior, what would you have me do next?" |

| Alright, atleast this weird fictional lord answers me. That's a start, I guess. I turn to look at the poster, walking over to it. My eyes briefly roll over it, reading everything that poster has to offer. Seems like it must be important, somehow. |

The poster reads
"You have been transported to another land by a machine built by the soon to be ruler of Earth, Jackson Montgomery. You are going to have to survive in this harsh envirement, and if you last long enough, you may help Jackson rule the world. However the chances are low." |

| Well, I hope this some sort of joke or else I'm screwed. I quietly pray that no one finds my browser history, as I glance out the windows again. I take the poster, then walk out the back door again. Once out there I look around my surroundings, to catch my bearings. |

Wherever this was, it was not earth. Somehow several biomes managed to be placed directly next to each other. Like since when can a n extremely hot desert be next to a place covered in complete snow?
"Every once in a while you will find buildings and objects that will contain supplies and ammo to help you survive. For now, I shall take my leave." And you notice that you get more warm once the voice leaves.

| I count all the biomes, trying to figure exactly where to go. I walk around the building as I look, in case I'm in some sort of even ground surrounded on all sides biomes. I can't shake the feeling that I'm in some sort of simulation like the Matrix, or I'm asleep. Either one makes so much sense, I wouldn't doubt either one. |

There may be more, but you count 5 biomes that you can see.

I head off to the jungle first, going to pick up various things for a bed. I read somewhere that the cold floor is often more dangerous than a lack of food or water. Plus if I ever get thirsty, I can just drink the snow. Seems pretty safe, so far.
However, I'm aware of the knife I was given, and the gun. That means at the very least I'm fighting big things, or other people. As such, I try to spend minimal time looking for bed supplies. |

| You almost instantly find a tree with leaves the sizes of actual beds. So far, so good. |

| I look at the giant leaves, wondering how to get them. I figure I might as well just stick to what's been dropped, and go around picking up fallen and dead leaves around the tree, versus trying to climb it. I lazily watch around as I do, who would of known survival would be so lax? |

| You hear a sound that sounds awfully similar to a lions roar. However wherever it was coming from, you had enough time to collect enough leaves for the bed. |

| I quickly take my leaves with me, and head back to the building, which I shall now dub 'The Safe house'. I glance back several times as I run back to the safe house, hoping this creature isn't interested in eating me. |

| You make it a quarter way to the safe house when you trip, and you hear the roar get louder and closer. |

I try to get up, pausing and wrapping the leaves around my arm, as sort of an arm guard. I ready my knife, turning and facing the direction of the roar. I glance at the sky, fear getting to me.
"Alright, I'm going to pretend I'll win this battle. Make sure to leave something like bandages back at the safe house."
Then I turn my attention towards the direction the roar is coming in. Time for battle. |

| A lion comes out of the jungle, jumping at your legs. However you managed to get up before it could pounce and you cut into its back slightly, but nothing fatal for it. |

I crouch a bit, ready to pounce as I circle around the lion. I keep my left arm infront of me, still wrapped in the leaves. If I can dodge it's attacks, and continue to leave little blows, hopefully I'll make myself look unappealing. Otherwise, I'll use the leaves wrapped around my arm as a sort of cushion. I'm right handed, anyway.
(Basically, using left arm wrapped in leaves as a shield, if can't dodge.) |

| The lion bites at your leg, but you jump away from the main bite, leaving you with only a slight scratch. In responce you cut into its side, and it roars as the knife connects with it's body. |

I get a bit too cocky, trying to use my superb location at it's side to my location. I move a bit, leaning against it as I try to stab it in the neck. I keep my legs a bit crouched, so if it tries to retaliate with any sort of attack I'll leap away from the animal.
"Is that all you got?!"
I challenge, more to the sky gods, than this crazy lion. |

| The lion moves its body and your knife goes to its back instead, and it tries to pounce but you jump away. |

| I go for a risky move, to end this move before it gets worse. I place my left arm infront of me as sort of a shield, fully expecting some sort of blow to come my way. With my right hand I ready my knife, to stab it somewhere in the head. I pour all my momentum into this, needing as much strength as possible to end this now. |

| The lion gives you a nasty bite to the leg, nothing fatal however. But then you stap your knife...directly between the eyes. The lion lets out a final roar as it falls down, and breaths it's last breath. |
