You are sitting in a nondescript office, the flurescent bulbs humming softly overhead. This is your work space up on the 40th floor of this huge building. Outside you can see other huge buildings stabbing upwards into the sky, and beyond that a smog fillled sky. On you computer screen is the image of a document that you had just typed up for your boss, which is getting ready to print out. Next to your pc is a picture of your wife and child, the whole reason you took this job, to make money and support them. You are staring at your picture, thinking of your care free past when the sound of the printer snaps you out of it. A sheet with a fairly large amount of words and graphs on it slides out and comes to a halt. This little piece of paper may mean a promotion from your boss, and you cant just let that slip by. Not with a second little one on the way.

READ THE PAPER

[jc6036]

You begin looking over your paper, sales figures, percentages, things you wish that you didn't have to bother with. Wait, you forgot to put your name on the paper! You get back on your computer and begin typing your name at the bottom of the paper. Oh dear. You can't seen to remember your name. You must be particularly frazzled this morning. What is your name?

George Smith

This.

[jc6036]

Alright then. You type "Smith, George." And print the paper out once again. Thats better. You step into a hallway and head towards your bosses office, passing the elevator on the way. You stop at the water cooler, deciding to get a drink to clear up your nervous cotton mouth. You are walking towards to cooler when you noticed that there is a uniform ripple going through it, yet no one around. The ripples start escalating in size and speed, the water eventually making little waves inside.

Back away.

Hide under a structural support

[jc6036]

You back away, and bump into a wall. Suddenly, a picture falls off of the wall and shatters. You look for a structural shelter, but then remember that you are on the 40th floor of the building. Your heart beat quickens as panic sets in. A crack runs up the dry wall, spewing out dust. Several similar cracks appear up and down the hall, and you begin to feel a vibration under your feet.

Run for your life

[jc6036]

You begin a to sprint down the hall, but then realize that you're getting nowhere running around on the 40th floor of this building. The floor gives a powerful shake and tosses you to the floor, and your running speed doesnt help much.

Look out a window, try to find a fire-escape.
