You find yourself in 2005, the war of the worlds:

One evening in 2026, you were sitting and watching your favorite movie, "War of the Worlds." After a few hours, you decided to go to bed. Turning off the TV, you went to the bedroom and lay down on the bed, falling asleep instantly.

The next morning, you woke up... not in your room. You woke up on some green grass, in the year 2005. Then, looking around, you literally see a humanoid, massive creature about 200 meters away from you, right in the city: Height: The tripod stands about 150 feet tall. Appearance: An alien mechanism made of dark, matte, anthracite-black metal. Instead of a classic head, it has a massive asymmetrical dome ("hood"), vaguely resembling a cuttlefish or a shield. On the front of the dome is one huge spotlight mimicking an "eye," and several smaller searchlights. Limbs: The machine moves on three incredibly long, jointed, flexible legs that move smoothly, like a spider's. Weaponry and traps: Dozens of long metal tentacles hang from the bottom of the dome, which the tripod uses to grab people. Two plasma cannons are mounted on its "shoulders," firing deadly heat rays that instantly incinerate a person into ash. Some models have mesh basket-cages attached to the back for collecting captives. It emits a soul-chilling, vibrating sound, similar to the blast of a giant foghorn. By all appearances, it is currently destroying the city.
