Dan nodded as he drove back to the camp, the drive would not take long.   "We can ask him if we are there or it is nearby.  If we're not in there we should head there.  If we are there we can ask him who some inhabitants are that we should meet first." Dan said.

"Call it a gut instinct but I think we were brought here for a reason," frank said. "I don't know why or how but that's what I think we're here for."  "I just hope we don't run into that big meat eater with the red eye and single red claw on it's left hand."

"Maybe Deimos can give us some info about him and some other things." Dan said as he drove.  Soon they arrived back at the camp.  "Looks like we are here." He said.

(ooc: not sure if we got back to soon, just assumed most would prefer we got back to the camp fast so the rp could continue.)

Cleve looked at Frank. After a bit of thinking, he said: "I have the same feeling too. I was on a ship undergoing some secret experiment when this green fog enveloped us. I really don't know what happened, and I don't wanna leak too much info. I nearly blacked out, but when I woke up, I found myself here."

After looking around for the expression on everyone's face, he continued, "I wasn't the only one on that ship, but I'm the only one here. I wasn't the closest to the source of the fog either. I wasn't doing anything special at the time. I also feel that we were brought here for a reason."

"Well that does sound interesting," frank said. "you probbaly guessed my opinion on the USSR when I asked if it fell it really has changed under Stalin's rule."

"Hmm, experimental ship in the 40's, and fog." Dan said thinking how it sounded familiar.  "I think I heard something about that.  As for the others, who knows, maybe some went to Oz." Dan said.

Cleve laughed at Dan's comment as he stepped out of the car, but he quickly stopped. He still had friends aboard that ship, and he was worried about their fate. "In any case," Cleve said, "I hope that they're alright."

Cleve shut the door behind him and walked to the center of camp. He had never been a boy scout or anything, and he never had any experience camping. If he hadn't come upon these four guys, he'd be dead by now. Also, unlike Dan, Frank, and James, he didn't arrive in a car or a plane. He had nothing on him but his gun, some coins, and the clothes on his back. He knew that he had to follow the other guys if he wanted to survive.

"So," Cleve said, "What should we do now."

"I was also at Pearl harbor on Dec 7th it was the place It first base I was assigned to," Frank said.

"Me too," Cleve exclaimed, "I was a radio operator on board the USS Patterson." I really got lucky. None of the Japanese planes attacked us. I was only a radio operator, so I didn't shoot down any planes or anything."

Cleve walked towards the two men.

"Maybe this has to do with who we're here."

Frank took off his brown leather flight jacket "I shot down two Val's with a BAR since my P-40 was destroyed on the ground that day," Frank said. "I also got my last letter from one of my cousins the day before he had just joined the U-Boat corps he seemed to be very proud about doing so." Frank stood there for a moment in silence.

Dan turned his car off and got out.  He shrugged as he looked around at the others and the camp.  "They may be in safe places also." He said to try to help the others to feel a bit better, and also it may be true.  "I wonder if this is the past of our world or another world, if the multiple universe theory is correct." He said, having heard of the theory from some stuff he had watched on tv and in science fiction and fantasy stuff also.

"As for what we do now we can get an idea of what we have, get some information about where we are and see if we can find a permanent place to stay for however long we will be here." He said.

Deimos examined the new vehicle carefully. "So exactly what do you guys plan to to do now?" he asked, twirling his stone knife.

James retrieved his shotgun and leaned it against a log. "Right now, we'll probably make our 'home' here," he said.

Deimos nodded. "That may work as you are a seldom visited part of the Great Valley," he said. "But there will come a time when the other inhabitants meet you and there may be conflicts," he said.

"True that. We'll just have to rely on diplomacy."

"hope they will be peaceable.  Are there certain folks who we could talk to first if we need to and certain ones to avoid and how to avoid them?" Dan said as he walked over to a place to sit down.  "I do hope we can all get along."

"Well," Cleve said, "I don't see any problems with this camp. We have food, and we have water. We've got weapons and cars as well."

Cleve sat down to try to clean out of the machine guns. Suddenly, a thought came to his mind.

"You don't suppose that we were brought here to stop the Pearl Harbor Attack, do you?" Cleve asked.

"Who is that big meateater with the red eye and red claw on it's left hand," frank asked Deimos. "Could you tell us more about him?"

Deimos ate another fish. "Best bet is talk to Mr. Longneck also called 'Grandpa Longneck. He is generally understanding and tolerant. However you should avoid Mr. Threehorn," he said. He then turned to Frank. "That would be Redcla. He can be very dangerous," he added.

"So, Deimos you think you can introduce us to Grandpa Longneck?" James asked. He then turned to Cleve. "Dan and I aren't soldiers. What could we do?"

"Assuming that we ever go back," Cleve said, "we can provide Matt here with some intelligence info. We can tell him about the Japanese fleet at Midway, how to beat them, and a bunch of other stuff."

Cleve started to lecture Matthew on all the Navy battles to come.

"If I had some dvd's I have at home they could provide some information, but I don't have those with me and can't surf the web here I'm sure." Dan said, "So not much I can do that I can think of." He said as he shrugged a bit.
