This was inspired by watching the docudrama End Day. However, I decided to adapt it to this.
The short story: our characters are living in a city. They are attempting to reach a central goal each time. Each time, an unforeseen disaster (like Yellowstone erupting or a rogue asteroid being detected) hinders them from reaching their goal, and then switches it around to a different goal: escape or survival.
(The next paragraph is the five disasters in End Day, though I may use them I may also decide to have everyone pick which ones are their favorites.)
As the megatsunami surges forth, as the asteroid closes in, as the pandemic infects the city, as the supervolcano erupts, and as the strangelet destroys the planet, will you have the mettle to survive, or will you simply perish along with the rest?
Welcome to the planet's final day. Welcome to the pure world of survival, where people die and cities are destroyed, where the men and women are quite painfully seperated from the boys and girls, where the equality of all men returns, and where you WILL die if not careful, strong, and smart.
Welcome to 5/1. Five endings, over the course of one day.
How does that sound? If you have a disaster you'd like to see, I'll shoehorn it in in place of the strangelet (because we're using 2010s era technology, so obviously we won't be able to survive. Otherwise, if I have to do the strangelet disaster, I'll catapult us thirty years into the future.)

Markup...
"Godzilla. Enough said." Nah... though something like it could happen, we're talking REALISM here. Maybe a giant robot sometime in the future goes haywire and begins destroying the city and killing people? Who knows.
"Alien race/robots attack" Seems likely, though that means we'd have to place this a bit off in the future. Robot attack is a good one.
"Rabies" I'll stop there. That's Disaster 3: pandemic.
"Clown Attack" I might decide to f**k realism and place this in there for shits and giggles as a bonus day. LOL
"THE WORLD is crashed into a burning forklift" Lol wut?

"....PFFFFFFFFFFFFFT."
Alright. But seriously, a Godzilla attack wouldn't fit in.
