Several years after major nuclear wars, followed by the rise of robotic armies, have caused the world to become post-apocalyptic. The year is 2276 and Earth is now full of anarchy, corruption, and death. The rich are richer, the poor are poorer and government’s ever crueler. 

A lone woman carrying a large backpack, in the shape of a coffin, comes to a small post-apocalyptic town in the middle of southern Utah, whose only existence rides on the Colorado River. There is a dam which provides water, food, and transportation to the several thousand people who have been congregating in the slowly re-growing town. Many had once hoped to fix the hydroelectric station to rebuild their lives, but corruption brews. 

This lone woman stops at one of the bars in town and gets into a fight with some local gangsters who were mistreating a young girl outside. Causing her to become at odds with the gangs of the town. This is the instance that first roots our heroine, Lisa Cunningham, to save this town and prompted her to start growing her Black Market Empire here! 

However, gangs are the least of her worries! Robotic army’s, rebellion militia, mutated monsters, mad cults, competing companies, government entities and lustful men keep ogling over her all the time!! Not to mention the strange events that slowly begin to unfold around the little girl, Hanna, that Lisa had saved. 

Yet there is more to Lisa than gorgeous looks alone. She has come back from over 200 years ago and is learning more about what has happened while she was in cryogenic sleep. A sleep that she volunteered to do for the US military due to her cyborg body! There is so much that has changed on Earth, much of which is far from what she once remembered and now she has even more to learn. How will she be able to survive in a hostile apocalyptic world and reach her own frivolous goals to obtain great riches?

Black Market Merchant

"Woah! Where did those come from!" Frank’s father shouted out. 


Hearing his surprise, everyone looked and immediately fell into a hushed silence. Even the kids stopped playing to gawk at the huge black and yellow striped mechanisms heavily thumping their way. Even though the Mechs were on the other side of the river, the sound of their heavy footsteps could be heard. The three mechs had just started to appear through the tree line and onto the old road leading to the dam. By now the first one had already fully appeared. 


“Those are Mineral Mover Mechs.” Lisa explained as everyone was currently speechless. “They are working on building a road down the cliffside to finally begin reconnecting the two sides of town. I need you, Mr. Hans, to assist with building that road. Particularly in dealing with how to maintain its stability in allowing heavy loads down a slope safely, the heavier the better. Your son said you used to work for the DOT (Department of Transportation), correct?”
