The Purple Creation: The Dexter Tanner Chronicles

The year is 2020 and we have made much advancement in the area of technology but not in the area of humanity. Civil wars and militia have made the United States a warzone. Dexter Tanner is a man of many talents but his best talent is killing. His determination to survive nuclear holocaust brings him face to face with the group that can tell him who killed his wife and son but not why. In his search to find out why his wife and son were killed he stumbles across a plot to kill everyone on earth. Dex and an underground faction called ''The Underground" search for clues to find out what a group called "The Ivory Triangle" plans to do with humans on earth. He must decide if he wants to exact revenge or save humanity as we know it today. His race and the race of everyone on earth play a pivotal role in how mankind survives.

My name is Dexter Tanner, Dex for short. I consider myself to be a man with many talents but the one that I have the most experience with is killing. Wet work was my thing. My resume has a lot of blacked out areas and my passport is simply a pass-card that is scanned at airport terminals. Who I work for and what I do will become ambiguous and even more confusing. That is the way I live. I move around easily and simply because there are people in my line of work who are less suspicious of an African American. Little do they know the places I have been and the people I have seen through the scope of my rifle. It would make them reconsider their thinking.I grew up in a small town in Ohio and was raised in the normal ways that society considers normal. Dyslexia as a child, forced me to learn differently. I had to learn to look at things in all angles instead of just the normal paths to a conclusion. It was not until I reached college that I realized that I have is a gift. I have the gift to think outside the box. Some would call it abstract thinking. It was a curse as a kid but once I learned how to use it, it became an asset. No silver spoon in this mouth and our family had the typical problems that all families have. I am the youngest of three kids. I had to fend for myself. Hand-me-downs were not real warm in the winter. They were pretty warn and tattered.The month is now March and three months ago a nuclear cloud was predicted to start floating around the globe. The origin of the cloud is unknown but it is speculated that it is caused by a space station falling to earth. When it entered the earth's atmosphere, the core of the power plant went nuclear and formed a nuclear cloud the size of Northern America. The cloud completely destroyed the magnetosphere. The magnetosphere kept harmful radiation from the sun from reaching the earth. Our poles switched from north to south. Scientists did not know exactly what impact that will have on life on this planet, but they do know that death will occur when our world will be without any protection from the sun. Radiation rained down on the earth killing every living thing on this planet. At least that is what was scheduled to happen before I hunkered down in this shelter. Before this mess, humans had adapted to the deteriorating conditions of the atmosphere. The day of being in the sun without UV protection is over. We have adapted a new material that when worn, shields us from the air and radiation pollution that we are exposed to. The suit also removes any ingested pollutants by increasing our sweat and disposing of the pollutants when absorbed into the suit. The suit has to be drained and maintained on a daily basis but one can go a week without servicing in emergency situations. The radiation that the earth is being bombarded with is too much for these suits. We did not have enough time to come up with a stronger suit but there have been a lot of new advancements in the area of science, but we have not evolved much in the area of humanity.
