`` Thank God for the Subway'', said a young man in a ripped up business suit. It was supposed to be his first day working in the Freedom Tower, luckily for him he was on the subway when the bomb hit. 
 
 `` Shut up'', replied another man, he was wearing a dirty shirt and jeans. A scruffy beard was growing on his face. He was supposed to go over a friends and help him paint his new apartment. Have a few beers and enjoy his day off. 
 
 The young man shut up. Then other guy was right he should be quite millions had just died. He looked back at the mushroom cloud that was once New York. His home, his childhood, and his family had just died. He looked back at the man in front of him. He was still a little nervous about him. He could be a deadbeat that is going to use him. He was eyeing him on the subway. 
 
 `` Listen'', said the older man, `` We need to keep moving, it wont be long before the radiation sets in.'' 
 
 `` Where are we going to go?'' 
 
 `` We go west, out in the heartland, the Brits can hit our cities, but they ca n't destroy everything. We find a small town that has bound to survived.'' 
 
 `` That is so far! We'll never make it, we'll die before we leave New England.'' 
 
 `` It worth a try'', he said trudging forward. He could n't believe it. Just a few hours ago he was planning on opening a few beers with a friend, now everyone he knows is dead. Thank God, Clara did n't have to live through this. He looked up at the sun poking its way through the cloud of dust. 
 
 `` How could things have gone so bad?'' 
 
 `` Simple, greed. Both sides wanted control of the Middle East. After the Syrian, Iranian, and Arabian governments fell it was a land grab for the oil. One threat escalated to another and before you know it all of our forces are there and once slip up, the end of the world happens.'' 
 
 `` We won though, right? I mean England must be a crater, we have so many more Nukes and they are so small....'' 
 
 `` Nobody won! Look around you! Do you see parades, do you see heroes, all I see is death and destruction! There are no winners of this war, everyone loses!'' 
 
 The young kid shut up again. The older gentleman did n't want to yell at him, he had to learn that things are n't black and white. 
 
 `` Listen we need to get out of here soon, night will fall in a few hours and with out food or shelter we are not going to make it.'' 
 
 There was silence behind him. 
 
 `` Listen kid'', he turned around but there was no one behind him. 
 
 `` Now where did he go?'' 
 
 He soon got his answer as a car pulled up next to him. 
 
 `` Sorry I saw this car pulled over on the road. Probably so some guy pulled over to see a view at the end of the world. Any way it runs.'' 
 
 `` You know kid I've known you for around five hours, but I got to say this might be the beginning of a friendship.'' 
 
 The kid smiled as the older gentleman got in the passenger seat. They drove into the unknown future.
