The year is 2055, several years after the third World War. The survivors of Washington D.C. take refuge frightened of the many dangers from the aftermath of the war. Families seek food and shelter while trying to avoid local gangs in the area. All hope seems to be lost. A group of mercenaries calling themselves E.C.H.O. protect the innocent while struggling to maintain authority. A team of young mutants known as the Chronicles is led by an orphan named Jasmine Lee. They join the mercenaries assisting them with maintaining the peace. Soon, the survivors learn the war had been started by an evil man named Winston Boswell. His plans were to shield off the most valuable property in the country while executing population control. The wealthy would claim their property after the war and the survivors would become enslaved to the rich. The Chronicles set forth to find Boswell and bring him to justice.
