She could remember her name, at least. It was a start.
She blinked a few times, adjusting to having her senses back. It was strange; she recognized that she had been sleeping for a long time -- the urge to yawn was powerful -- but she had no idea how she got into this pod, and why she was being woken up now. Was there some sort of significance to this particular time?
She coughed. She hated long silences, she remembered that, too. And this silence, this was the scary kind of silence, the kind of silence that made a person want to bang on pots and pans just to fill the air with noise and hide from their thoughts. She was one of those people.
She took a tentative step out of the pod. The ground was firm, that was good. Another step. She wobbled a bit, unused to the motions after so long. She wanted to know, were there others like her? Other popsicle people who would wake up without their memories and a desire to escape the silence?
A door to the left of the pods open. There is a blinding light. And the smell of fresh air. "If there is any thing you need to ask please ask before you leave." The bunker in which you're in damaged. only half of the pods are opened. The other 5 have a R.I.P on the ones deceased and the one that went missing has never been closed. the inside is ruined. The door stops. it is stuck you can see out, you can smell out. but you can't get out.
"Oh and please to avoid harm from the environment outside please put on your jumpsuit."

"W-w-hat is going on? Did I die? Did those people die?" he asked, before slowly approaching the other pods to see if anyone else was there. All that came to him was a disgusting sight, number fifty seven had some sort of liquid covering his face and part of his head was eroded. A steady stream of green muck poured out of his mouth.
Soon after alex wakes up. She looks around to see the people. "hmm....?" She moves he legs to the side. Using it to balance she slowly puts on her jumpsuit. Slowly walking and trying not to fall over she moves over to the door she looks out of the crack. "Wow." she gasps.
"Where am I?" I demanded, noticing a corpse in the other chamber.
The smell of the outdoors was alluring, hypnotizing. Emery wanted nothing more than to get out and feel the breeze on her face. She pushed harder, her desire to survive overpowering any other desires she may have had at that moment.
And finally, something shifted, and the ragtag group of cryosleep survivors were able to reach the outside.
"Well, whoever sent us here might want us to get out of this manky building and explore, I'll put on my jumpsuit." he pulled the jumpsuit over him and slowly stepped onto the grass.
She didn’t know what she was expecting, but an animal as large as the one just a few yards away was not it. She froze, glancing at the others to see if they had noticed. Was the animal dangerous? Would it charge if they made any sudden movements or loud noises? She didn’t know and frankly, she was more than afraid to find out.
She slowly tugged on the sleeve of the person nearest her. “You can see that thing, too, can’t you?” She asked in a whisper. “It’s staring right at us, and I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to become something’s lunch. Not today, anyway.”
The creature stood up, Still not able to make out what it is, It walks away.
"What's in there?" She asked. "And what are we going to do about food? I mean, we're 57 years overdue for a meal."
"Wait everyone, the air is cool, clouds are low, means we are in the Northern Hemisphere. If the sun is there, that means, we are in London! We could rest in Buckingham!"
The others had a glint come into their eyes.
"I wonder if the Royal Family left some extra survival provisions for something like this. Anyway, follow me if you want to be treated like a monarch."
Wolfgang, for some reason, had no idea why he could remember any navigation skills at all, let alone London, or Buckingham Palace, or even The Royal Family. It was quite a strange feeling.
OOC: Ignetio, in your picture for post apocalyptic London in the introduction, you can see Brooklyn Bridge and the Empire State Building as well, you might want to change it.
