"I see." Cleve said compassionately, "So that's why you were speaking German when were attacked by those weird creatures with sharp teeth."  

After a moment, Cleve continued, "It must to tough leaving your family like that. In fact, we probably all miss them now." Everyone wore a apprehending face. Cleve sat down and started cleaning out of of the machine guns.

"Guys, I've always wanted to ask," Cleve said, "How are we supposed to get back home?"

"No idea but I left Germany when I was 6 with my mom and dad She was American studying in Germany before the great war started my dad was a sharpshooter in the army." "He's the one who taught me how to shoot he died almost two years ago before I left for England." frank sighed and wiped the tear away.

Dan shook his head.  "I bet the war was hard on many folks, wars always are." Dan said.  He set another sack down and put some of the fruit and such he had gotten and put it on the ground.  "If anyone likes fruit there is some." He said.  

Then he looked in the direction he had come in, "Guess I should bring my car here, sooner or later." He said.

"There hasn't been a World War III, has there?" Cleve asked.

Cleve put down the machine gun his was trying to clean out.

"Guess I'd better follow you, Kor," Cleve said, "There's safety in numbers, and I wanna ride a car of the future." Cleve picked up his M1911 again, just in case if he encountered something dangerous.

"Also," Cleve asked, "How many people died in the war? What are the challenges facing the US the 2000s, if any?"

"The US is engaged in a war with Afghanistan and Iraq," James said munching on his fish. "As for the USSR, it is completely shatttered." He then turned to Dan. "I'll help you get the car," he said.

"I'll watch the campsite," Deimos said, tossing some wood onto the fire.

Dan nodded, "Let's all head to my car then.  It's not to far and getting here should be fairly quick.  Even though it's not meant for off road use." He said and picked up a few grapes to eat along the way back to where his car was before he stood up and turned to head to where his car was.  "I hope the way there and back are safe and no danger happens." Dan said before starting off he made sure to keep his hand on his flare gun since it could shot farther then his mace gun could.

"Don't worry," Cleve said smiling, "We're all armed and ready." He showed Dan his M1911 pistol.

Dan's car soon came into view. Instead of a small triangular hood, its hood was rectangular and curved. The lights were more rectangular than the ones back in 1943, and the car seemed lower, but longer. The car had a layer of shiny paint, and the front windshield was a single piece of glass, instead of being divided into two pieces.

“I think I like your car," Cleve noted, "What brand is it?"

"Such a wonderful machine," frank said. "What kind of metal is it made out of?"

James followed Dan to his car. He looked it over, it was a silver BMW-7 series. "Wow, you got a nice car," he said.

"Hm," Cleve muttered, "a German car eh? What do you know?“

"Thanks." Dan said.  "I do like it." He said.  Then he turned to look at Frank.  "Depends on the location, but I'd imagine a type of steel.  Not in expert in that area myself." He said.

He went over to unlock the doors.  "Hop in and we can get back as soon as possible.  No telling what may be around here.

"Great," Cleve said enthusiastically. He pulled open the rear door and jumped inside. The seats were cushy, and the air inside was fairly warm. He tried to only the windows, but he couldn't find the crank.

"Hey Dan," Cleve said, "How do you open the window?"

Dan got into the driver's seat and turned the car on. "It's a little button type of thing, here let me open the window for you."  He said just before he used the driver's side controls to open Cleve's window.

"Anyone else want their window open?" He asked.

James climbed into the BMW and carefully placed his shotgun on the floor. "So Dan, what supplies do you have in here?" he asked.

With everyone in Dan started to drive off.  "Not a lot of food since I never planned on being in some world with no civilization or city at all.  Some mre and astronaut food, enough for 1 person for maybe 2 days, a canteen, mace, flare gun, compass, and some other stuff." Dan said during the drive back to the camp.

"Well we could head for that valley Demios was talking about there should be enough food there," frank said. "In fact I flew over it before I crashed it seemed to be the size of several cities."

"I think Deimos said that we are in the valley he was talking about," James said. He then switched gears. "I've got a ton of camping/survival gear in my SUV. And with Deimos as our companion, we've got little to worry about."
