Larna returns from the different dimension, but does not return to the same time that she left. She returns to the year 2515, over ten years after she had originally left New Arizona. Things have changed in this future world. There is no longer a General Council of New Arizona. There is just a one-man single leader. Tony Johnston is his real name, but everyone knows him as the Fatman. He hails from Brisbourney, where he first took over that city. He is so power hungry that he lets nothing stand in his way. His life of crime developed, including a certain venture at the North Pole. He now controls every single Living Complex on the surface of the planet, while he orbits the planet high above, in a High Security, no admittance, fortress in space. Larna knows him from when Red Justice tried to kill him in a previous adventure. Tony was after Lauren then, plotting and planning a way to get to the wife of the Chief of Police. In the end he got to both of them.
Tom Aspel and Lauren Delaney have been assassinated, some four years earlier. Heather Morgan-Fox, Larna’s partner by marriage has been forced to marry Johnston, because Larna is assumed to be dead. She has had Larna’s and her child; a boy named Jet (Who ends up being the Warrior from Adventure #3). She also has to take care of Tanya – Lauren’s young daughter who turns into Tatania aka Shadow. The Fatman bringing them up as his own is why Tatania has a twisted mind in the future and does not know who her parents were. Heather is held a virtual prisoner up in the space fortress. Held hostage to the whim of the Fatman. The Fatman has control over everything on the planet. He runs his own form of Monopoly, where criminals rule the streets and the police force no longer exists to stop any crimes. The good people on the planet are forced to live under a brutal regime of crime and filth.
Larna finds the world in utter chaos. The story follows her attempts to free Heather. Johnston controls the city through the use of Gatherer gangs on the surface. He collects the beautiful young women of the city for use in his Artic Pleasure resort and for the personal satisfaction of his more powerful business connections by using a sick Lottery system. Larna discovers the fact that her half-sister has been slaughtered and decides to pay the Fatman a visit.
For a time Larna tries to play along and become his bodyguard. At least that way she was close to Heather. But, she could not stand to be around the arrogant Johnston for long. When she tries to kill him, he is ready for her. Larna gets sent into the old Bostary Prison Complex, which is now used as a holding area for young women.
After surviving an assassination attempt inside the prison complex, Larna escapes and finally finds a small band of resistance fighters, who are what is left of the old police force. She leads them in an attack on Artic Pleasure and the SAT Laboratory, which has been turned into a Re-programming centre for Johnston’s victims.
