Introduction:

In the sun-baked sprawl of West Valley City, where the hum of souped-up mobility scooters vied with the discordant blasts of rogue jazz musicians and the silent glide of crimson lowriders, a different kind of outlaw cruised the asphalt fringes. They were the Lost Cause Purple Gang: Steve, a pink panda chasing a fading high and the ghost of a better life; Grok, a silverback gorilla drowning his tragic past in a never-empty flask; and Cookie, a box turtle whose every rustle of leaves and glint of chrome heralded an impending, shell-targeted conspiracy. Their motto, "Purple Gang for Life," was less a boast and more a defiant whisper against a world that had chewed them up and spat them out. Their rivals? A surprisingly territorial collective of senior citizens on tricked-out scooters and a jazz ensemble whose "heavy hands" often involved more than just musical instruments. But as a silent, masked force known as the Crimson Dragons emerged from the shadows, dealing in secrets and data rather than drugs, the chaotic landscape of West Valley City was about to tilt on its axis. Caught between the rumble of rebellion and the cold precision of a digital underworld, Steve, Grok, and Cookie would discover that their lost cause might just be the only cause worth fighting for, even if it meant facing down gentrification, geriatric hackers, and the terrifying truth hidden beneath a giant, dilapidated drive-in screen. This is their ballad, a purple-tinged symphony of stolen scooters, sticky situations, and the unwavering, if slightly unhinged, bond of three misfits against the world.
