[ WP ] The world ended ten years ago . Everyone vanished and you have been alone ever since , surviving . However while speeding down a lone highway , late one night , the familiar flash of police lights flood your rearview mirror ... .

It was the first time in a long while that I recognized the night from the day. All I could see was the road ahead of me. I was driving, though I knew not where. 
 
 My body felt weaker than it ever had in years. I had trouble focusing, it was sensory overload. I could n't make out anything except the lines of the road. My stomach was empty. I ca n't remember the last time I felt hunger. 
 
 A shock came to my system as I took notice of bright lights flooding into my eyes, reflecting from the rear-view mirror. How long had they been there? Slowly a high pitched hum I failed to noticed subsided. I could hear again, but the first noise I recognized reminded me of panic yet it was a salvation. A police cruiser had been following me. 
 
 Happily I pulled over to the side of the road. Disregarding all my old instincts, I opened my door to get out and meet this long-awaited face, no matter who's it was. My legs could n't bare the weight of my body anymore and I collapsed. 
 
 The kind soul had rushed to my aid. In her arms, I could see her speaking into her uniform. A radio? I must have fallen asleep just then. 
 
 I awakened to the sensation of my body being manipulated. I was in a bed, it felt familiar, but I had n't slept in a bed for quite some time. Through the bright lights I could see that I was being assisted. 
 
 The years spent wandering must have taken a great toll on my body. I never gave heed to my health when all I could think was to move forward. I searched for other souls, at last I found them. 
 
 I steadily regained control of my senses and could begin to communicate my gratitude. 
 
 `` Thank you,'' I said. 
 
 `` Mr. Collier, do you know where you are?'' a sweet voice asked. 
 
 `` With my people,'' I smiled weakly, nodding out once again.
