I had this insanely awesome dream this afternoon.  A few hours before, a couple of friends and I were goofing off, looking up “How to Survive a Zombie Raid” and apparently I got a lot more sucked into this than I thought I did.  So, about ten AM this morning, I dozed off for a few hours before I had to go pick up another friend to give him a ride to the movies at three this afternoon…so without much more hesitation, this is my dream:

I was on this planet.  A large desolate planet.  As far as I knew right now, only I and my three traveling companions were alive, and none of us were sure of anything anymore.  We had no memory of where we came from or what our past was.  We just knew that we were there in the present, and knew nothing else.  The only thing that we were certain of, was that we were infected….and what we were infected from, we didn’t know.  Perhaps a zombie virus, or perhaps, some strange alien bacteria; all any of us knew, was that we were there, the four of us, only the four of us.

I don’t remember any names, but there were three men, including myself, and one woman.  All of us were in our early to mid-twenties.  The two other men were maybe slightly shorter than myself, being six foot, one inch, and both had dark hair, perhaps black, or dark brown.  One was a slight bit leaner than the other and wore thin rimmed glasses.  The other, a bit more built than the other and I, and a bit more fit as well, more like he might have been a marine or maybe Army.  For the sake of consistency, I will give these two names.  The marine, as I will call him, is named Ted; and the other, a bit more on the computer geek side, but still well built, but not much leaner, and thin rimmed glasses, I name Allen.  My name is Ben.  I am of average build and weight for one of six foot, one inch, and wear thin rimmed glasses as well.  The woman was not much shorter than the three men.  She had shoulder length curly blond hair, and was a bit more on the fit side, not slim, but average as things go.  i have no idea if she had a name at all, but for being one of the four, she never spoke, at least, not to me, anyhow.  I will call her Sharon.
