It's been a long few years for everyone in the United States. We got destroyed in war, and we are on the brink of disaster. Bombings occur daily, murders and robberies occur hourly. It's horrible, and there is absolutely no way out of it, it seems.
The government brought all eight of us to investigate some strange signals in outer space...I can't remember why, exactly, but I know that it wouldn't have helped us anyways. The eight of us were supposed to come home safe and sound. They practically guaranteed, and I should have known better. Some wormhole brought us to this magical land, and now I'm some sort of horse with wings, while the other seven are dealing with very similar issues.
A zoologist, rumored to have navigated the harshest terrains without any sort of trouble, as well as harboring keen knowledge of common wildlife and fauna.
A sociopathic scientist, who has been waiting for a moment like this his entire life.
A national hero, who was considered a leader after a stunt at Mt. Rushmore where she saved the lives of hundreds after a potential terrorist attack.
A weightlifter, who holds many records and has placed in many Iron Man competitions.
A strange competitive card player with the IQ of 173.
A traveler, who can speak very many languages, and still has the ability to learn more, and reigns supreme at understanding cultures.
Me, a pyro technician, if you'd like to call it that.
As well as some sort of schizophrenic mechanic, who is known to have made a complete army tank from absolute scratch in a matter of days.
This is about survival. The government in this strange world's searching for us. But we can't allow that. We must run, we must hide, and we must learn how to survive in a land of which none of us have ever dreamed us. This is the story of simply blending in, and getting home. Of dealing with the inner demons and braving the unknown.
This, is the story of eight.

I think we can all agree that the guy on the far left is the handsomest of the group.
The song that popped into my head while reading the description.

Yup. I recognized the name so took note. I'm Pathos by the way. I'll have to check your stuff out next chance I get.
2727618 You seemed familiar o3o And awesome! You shan't be disappointed!
This is quite interesting. I'm looking forward to the next chapter. Oh, and I like that you built up, gave some back story and character development, THEN hurled your character into a whole new shit storm.(I am not being sarcastic)
2727781 Wait, was that last bit sarcastic?
Great story, can't wait to see where this goes. Way more original that the usual HiM stories.
color me impressed
the story is great! and its fluent enough to read....well fluently 
10/10 :D
My only concern is the massive plot hole that is space travel. If going by the distances you covered it would take years if not decades to reach the hole with current space technology. To be unconscious for that long would be fatal since you 1) wouldn't eat or drink anything or 2) brain injury. Of course you can escape that by pointing out how long the journey is, but since you don't do that at the moment I can only assume it will take much longer than a few hours.
2729305 ya know... I'm really not sure...

There is also the fact that this is based in the future, who knows what the government was doing with its time all those years. Who knows, maybe they have faster than light travel or even slip space tech that lets them cover large distances in a short amount of time. The story made it seem like it only took a few seconds for them to leave earth's atmosphere. Heck, maybe they didn't make it all the way to the moon but the worm hole/blackhole/whatever opened up around mars or the asteroid belt. We don't know, it was relatively vague at that point.
logic doesnt exist here. in fact, logic killed itself.
I did noot really like the first chapter, but I think I'll enjoy the rest of this story very much. please make the next chapter quickly.
Yay, update!
and cliffhanger...
Well shit gone forever and you comeback with a cliff hanger?!?! Do you wana get Internet killed!!!
also I loved it and u should make moar 
Is this a trick to get us to secretly vote for what should happen or is this truly a cliffhanger? If it is a trick, I'll guess they move as soon as they can. Take some time to scavenge the wreck and get used to the new bodies and then move out. Staying where anything can come to them risks a hostile first encounter or predators investigating the intrusion of its/their territory.
HOLY PINKAMINA IT'S ALIIVE!
i thought that this story was dead like smashed goat testicles
Damn, we finally get suspense from that cliffhanger after who knows how long and we get another cliffhanger.
You must be a writer then.
Anyway i'l be waiting for more since i still am very curious where this story is heading towards.
hey dude! nice story!!! hope for more
! anyways i made an acount so i can post feedback instead of just telling you!!!
you better make more! or ill go crazy because of the cliff hanger

Anyhow, nice chapter.
Some interaction and whatnot, i am quite curious to the upcoming chapter.
I like that story's plot.
I hope you don't mind, but I might have taken your 'Everyone against US' idea for the french novel I will write soon. It's such a good idea I can't let it pass my brain.
That ending made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside!
You know to tell you the turth if i was there to break a tie i would have say this to theme flat out to them.
" Look here miss idk what your think right now but we have to pick what the better plan of it, If we stay here and build stuff sure we maybe ok for what 1 2 maybe 3 weeks tops but remember what he say for all we know someone that live on this world cloud of seen us and want to fucking kill us for not being one of them for crying out load. If we get out of here and go and do noting to this broken ship guess fucking what will happen someone will find it and than use what ever tech is on broad and when they find a way to make a new weapon that they have never use before there going to be wars breaking out because of us, plus if we go into the woods with say know little to what so ever in there let say for one that there a phoenix fly trap like in our world but now think of it as bigger than you and can eat you by just walking by it with out know it's there and now we have no weapons to fight it with because we didn't feel the fucking need to take any with us. now what i say i hope you can use your shit brains of yours and think before acting out with out any god damn of a fucker slut shit for head. "
but that just me i would like to know how they act if i say that, i just like to know ty.

I'm jealous of Oliver. He is the pyro I've always wanted to be.
Except for the jail part.
