[WP] You startle awake to find yourself in class. 9th grade. Problem is, you're supposed to be 25. Everyone around you seems to know you, as if you've always been there. They all treat you normally, until you run into one girl/guy who just looks at you funny from across the room.	11
[WP] Determined to see aliens, you buy a remote farm with large crop fields -perfect for crop circles. You set up cameras and often stakeout in the fields. One day you finally catch the green humanoids in the act, but they're not aliens. They're lizard people. "Well, this is embarrassing," one says.	10
[WP] The man balances precariously on the thin headboard of your bed; you're not sure how it's even holding his weight. "... Is this really necessary?" you ask. He replies matter-of-factly: "You hired me for this." You sigh, regretting calling the number on that ad for a 'human dream catcher.'	10
[WP] You stand with the other survivors of the plane crash. The briefcase handcuffed to you is still intact, despite the wreck. You knew its contents were invaluable, but you never thought they would shoot down a passenger jet. Make your way back to civilization. Save the civilians too if you can.	10
[WP] You're at a shady used car-sales place getting a pitch from a stocky fellow. He pops the trunk of the car he's showing you, revealing a tied up person. He slams the trunk quickly. "Oops, ha-ha. You didn't see anything, got it?" It won't be that easy though; you're not really there to buy a car.	10
[WP] It’s your third time repeating 8th grade. You’re a smart kid, but keep getting held back for behavioral reasons. Being familiar with the material, you come in 1st on the quarterly exams. The class prodigy who’s accustomed to holding the top score isn’t happy. They seek you out...	10
[WP] "Keep your cover for as long as you can. If the people of Pompeii find out you're there to stop them, they will kill you. You have to make it to Mt. Vesuvius and entreat the deity there for the destruction of the town before it's too late. The world is counting on you."	10
[WP] It didn't look shady when you signed up. It was just a guide service offering tours of a beautiful mountain range. You didn't question it when the group was led off the path; the guide knew every inch of the mountain. But now you've been led into the grasp of a secluded cult. You need to escape	10
[WP] Worship no false gods, the bible says. Well the 'other' gods don't appreciate that. Odin, Zeus, and Ra decide it's time to team up and take back the celestial plane. Are you an angelic defender, ready on the front lines? Or a mythical beast or being partaking in the siege?	10
[WP] While exploring in the woods, you find an old, rusty, abandoned train. You climb inside it to explore, and the doors all slide shut. The train begins to move.	10
