I was walking in the woods. It was getting dark so I tried to leave. I was lost. I continued to walk. I went in a circle but something was... different this time. There was a house with one light on. I walked towards the house and knocked on the door. It slowly opened but no one was behind it. I walked in and yelled "Is anyone there? I'm coming in... I was wondering if I could stay as it's getting dark." no response. "Um, hello?" silence. I continue walking into the house up the stairs where I was the light. The source was a candle in the window. I still didn't see anyone but it looked like there had been activity very recently. I heard footsteps but I couldn't make out where they came from or where they were going. They stopped. The door closed. The candle was blown out. It was black. No light. Then I heard someone right behind me. I turned to look but no one was there. I looked back towards the candle but I wasn't in the same room. My vision blurs. I woke up in the woods. It's morning but something feels off. So I get up and attempt to walk. I found the end of the woods... When I got out of the woods it was different. Time seemed to have gone either back or forward. I couldn't tell... there were no houses for miles, no cars, no crops, not even an animal, just plain land. I started walking down what I presumed was a road then it hit me. This wasn't even Earth. I was stuck on a different planet. I was stuck on Proxima Centauri. I was 4.246 light years away from earth with no way home and no way to reach home.
