Uncharted Times
Description
After the work-related incident that nearly took his life, Jonassen has found the road back to society long and difficult. The year is 3293 and after 3 Nuclear Wars, the majority of Earth's surface is uninhabitable, with Africa left as home to the remaining population. "The Company", using its new technology, assigns Jon and other contractors, to clean up radiation fallout at key international locations. After a dangerous incident during the first assignment. Jon and his colleague Marilyn are both captured by a brutal dictator of a near underground community. They make a daring escape from their captors and whilst on the run they get caught up in a Time Vortex created by a combination of this new technology and Jon's own AI prosthetics. They are cast into the confusing and complex world of the early 21st century and the rise of Donald Trump to the presidency. Jon's history is different to ours, the assassination attempt at Donald Trump's inauguration leads to Nuclear conflict in 2022. Trump survives the attempt to win a second term using the nation's sympathy vote. After re-election he is manipulated by government officials that this was a state-sanctioned attempt by North Korea, leading to nuclear war between the nations. The after-effects are catastrophic and create a downward spiral of American society before a technological resurgence gives rise to super countries and an over-reliance on Artificial Intelligence leading to 2 World Nuclear Wars 1000 years later. Any part Jon plays in this society of the 21st century could change the future for the benefit of all. But shouldn't he hideaway, have no influence on events, and let time proceed as is? The people he meets persuade him to help save their future - prevent the assassination attempt at Donald Trump's inauguration. This should break the chain of events at the start that leads to the 1st nuclear conflict, altering the future for all - including those in his own time.
