**The events of this story took place during a series of flights that I took from April 7, 2017 to April 10, 2017. I'm writing this out because I don't think anyone else will believe me.**<br><br>I'm not sure what triggered this, but I think it was the guy who tried to kidnap that little girl in Dallas. I was sitting in row 37A on my flight from Dallas to Chicago when it happened, and I couldn't get it out of my mind. I didn't get much sleep after that, and before I knew it, I had gotten off the wrong flight at O'Hare.<br><br>The next thing I knew I was on a flight headed for Minneapolis, and the sun was already starting to come up. I thought to myself, "What the hell? How did I get on this plane?" The guy next to me smiled at me and said, "Welcome aboard!" and then he went back to his book. I was confused and didn't know what to say. I asked the woman across the aisle if she was on this flight originally, and she told me she was on her way to visit her brother in a hospital in Minneapolis. I told her that I had gotten on the wrong flight and she said, "Oh don't worry about it. It's only an hour drive to Chicago from there." I was baffled, but she continued talking, and I didn't get a chance to ask her any questions.<br><br>The sun continued to rise over the horizon and the landscape below us turned from green to brown to beige. The landscape turned to water and the water turned to clouds. I had never seen this many clouds before. It was like flying into a storm, but there was no storm on the horizon.<br><br>The man next to me put down his book and asked me if I wanted some of his peanuts. I told him yes and he handed me a bag of peanuts and a bottle of soda. He said, "I hope you like Coke." I said, "Thank you. I like Coke."<br><br>As the plane flew on, the clouds turned to white and then to gray, and soon the entire plane was shrouded in a thick white fog. I looked out the window and couldn't see anything.<br><br>"I'm sorry," I said to the man next to me.<br><br>"For what?"<br><br>"For disturbing you."<br><br>He smiled and said, "It's okay."<br><br>"I don't know your name."<br><br>"It's okay."<br><br>"I don't know what to say."<br><br>"I don't know what to say either."<br><br>We both sat in silence for a few minutes, and I started to feel like I was in some kind of trance. I was starting to feel a little scared, but then I remembered the peanuts and I was so excited I forgot all about my fears. I ripped open the bag and popped one of the peanuts into my mouth. It was the most delicious thing I had ever tasted. I started eating all the peanuts in the bag and then I drank the entire bottle of soda. When I was finished, the man next to me was smiling at me.<br><br>"You enjoyed the peanuts?" he asked.<br><br>"I loved them," I said.<br><br>"Good. I'm glad you liked them."<br><br>I fell asleep after that and when I woke up I was alone. The man next to me was gone and the woman across the aisle was gone. The whole plane was empty. I stood up to see if I could find anyone, and I saw that the plane had turned around. I could see the horizon behind us, and instead of seeing the clouds I had seen before, I saw a sea of flames.<br><br>I thought to myself, "What kind of plane goes through flames? Has everyone gone crazy?"<br><br>I walked to the back of the plane and I saw a flight attendant sitting in a chair.<br><br>"Excuse me," I said. "Where is everyone?"<br><br>The flight attendant looked up from her phone and said, "Good morning. Welcome to your flight."<br><br>"Thank you," I replied. "I'm a little confused. Where is everyone?"<br><br>"I'm sorry. But they're all gone."<br><br>"Where did they go?"<br><br>"They had to get off the plane."<br><br>"I didn't get off the plane."<br><br>"I know you didn't," she said.<br><br>I walked up to the cockpit and I saw that it was empty. I sat in the captain's chair and I saw a screen in front of me that said "Flight Information." I pressed the button next to the screen and it lit up and started talking.<br><br>"Welcome, Captain. Welcome, Captain."<br><br>"Thank you," it said.<br><br>"You are currently in the middle of a flight. The last time you stopped flying was at O'Hare Airport, where you picked up a passenger from a connecting flight. You are now on your way to Minneapolis."<br><br>"That's right," I said.<br><br>"You are currently flying over the state of Iowa."<br><br>"That's right."<br><br>"Your next stop will be the city of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, where you will refuel and then continue on to your final destination."<br><br>"That's right," I said.<br><br>"Your current time is 2:45 AM. Your next stop will be 2 hours from now. Your current speed is 570 miles per hour, and your altitude is 30,000 feet. You have 18 hours and 34 minutes of fuel left in your tank."<br><br>"That's right," I said.<br><br>"Thank you for listening," it said.<br><br>"Thank you for the information," I replied.<br><br>I sat there for a moment in awe of what I had just heard. 18 hours and 34 minutes of fuel? That didn't make any sense. I looked at my phone to see the time and I was shocked to find that the time on my phone was different from the time on the plane. My phone said it was 3:07 AM, but the screen said it was 2:45 AM. I started to feel confused and scared.<br><br>I sat there in shock and fear for a few minutes. I couldn't figure out what was happening. I didn't know how I got on this plane or why I couldn't get off. I didn't know what time it was or how long I had been flying for. I didn't even know where I was going.<br><br>I sat in the cockpit for a few more minutes, thinking and trying to figure out what to do. When I finally got up the courage to leave, I saw that the plane was empty again.<br><br>"Excuse me," I said to the flight attendant.<br><br>"Good morning," she said. "Welcome to your flight."<br><br>"Thank you," I replied. "I'm a little confused. Where is everyone?"<br><br>"I'm sorry. But they had to get off the plane."<br><br>"Where did they go?"<br><br>"They had to go to work."<br><br>"I didn't have to go to work."<br><br>"I know you didn't," she said.<br><br>I walked around the plane for a while and I didn't see anyone. I even went to the bathroom, but there was no one there. I was starting to get really confused and scared. I didn't know what to do.<br><br>I walked up and down the aisle a few times and then I saw a door at the front of the plane. I didn't see that door before and I wasn't sure where it led. I decided to investigate and see where it would take me. I opened the door and I saw a long stairway that went down into darkness. I started to walk down the stairs but I couldn't see anything. I stopped at the bottom of the stairs and called out into the darkness, "Hello? Is anyone here?"<br><br>"Good morning," a woman's voice replied. "Welcome to your flight."<br><br>"Thank you," I said. "I'm a little confused. Where is everyone?"<br><br>"I'm sorry. But they had to get off the plane."<br><br>"Where did they go?"<br><br>"They had to go to work."<br><br>"I didn't have to go to work."<br><br>"I know you didn't," she said.<br><br>"Where am I?"<br><br>"You're in the cargo hold," she replied.<br><br>"I see stairs."<br><br>"Yes, the stairs are down there," she said.<br><br>"What's down there?"<br><br>"I'm not sure," she replied.<br><br>"I don't know what to do."<br><br>"I know you don't," she said.<br><br>I walked down the rest of the stairs and I saw a long corridor that stretched off into the darkness. I couldn't see anything and I didn't know what to do. I called out again into the darkness, "Hello? Is anyone here?"<br><br>"Good morning," a man's voice replied. "Welcome to your flight."<br><br>"Thank you," I said. "I'm a little confused. Where is everyone?"<br><br>"I'm sorry. But they had to get off the plane."<br><br>"Where did they go?"<br><br>"They had to go to work."<br><br>"I didn't have to go to work."<br><br>"I know you didn't," he said.<br><br>"Where am I?"<br><br>"You're in the cargo hold," he replied.<br><br>"I see a corridor."<br><br>"Yes, the corridor is down there," he said.<br><br>"What's down there?"<br><br>"I'm not sure," he replied.<br><br>"I don't know what to do."<br><br>"I know you don't," he said.<br><br>I walked down the corridor and I saw a door at the end. I walked up to the door and I opened it, and I saw a room that was filled with seats. The room was small and it looked like it had been built for a small child. I saw that the seats were arranged in a circle, and in the center of the circle there was a small table.<br><br>I walked into the room and I saw that there was a woman sitting in each of the seats. They all looked at me and smiled at me.<br><br>"Good morning," they all said at the same time.<br><br>"Thank you," I replied.<br><br>"I'm a little confused. Where is everyone?"<br><br>"I'm sorry. But they had to get off the
