Something is abducting human beings. The vanishings are spreading further and further throughout human-held systems and those responsible leave no traces behind. Their motives and their methods are unknown, and it is not long before Darien, Amber, and the Blink Operatives of Hammerhead Squad are drafted into an interstellar manhunt to find the perpetrators.

With her new position at the top ranked Battlecast Academy and with last year's victor no longer competing, it seems like the fates have aligned to give Codi a clear run at winning the tournament once and for all. Armed with state of the art equipment, a rigorous training schedule and a scholarship fund to let her focus on nothing but the Gauntlet all year round, she has one goal: first place. But this year the game has changed. She's not the plucky underdog anymore. Codi has the weight of expectations on her shoulders, and there are those who view her leap to fame through jealous eyes. This year her battles won't be confined to the arena, and now she has everything to lose. [Sequel to The Gauntlet]

Mayu stood there, her heart accelerating as she desperately tried to stay calm. It wasn't working. There were centaurs surrounding her, actual fricking centaurs! And they all wanted to kill her and the group she was with. What was she supposed to do now, run? Fight? Hide?! She had a feeling none of those options would help. . . . "Elieh," Gokan tested the name. "It's nice and all, but will I ever see you again?" "Perhaps," Chidum replied. "You have helped me more than you know, Gokan. And for this you are my greatest friend here on Earth." "That's not a yes," Gokan pointed out. "Nor is it a no," Chidum stated. Gokan smiled. He took one last photograph of the guy. "I will not say goodbye, my friend," Chidum spoke. "Rather I say... Until our paths cross again." He walked through the portal. Gokan nodded his head in reply to the Biafran's last words. The blue light faded away until it vanished. . . . Mayu decides to leave California for a bit to go visit her Chilean side of the family. It's not exactly easy, either... Her family lives on an island! Something seems off, though- And when she falls through a portal leading to the magical war ridden world of CYRON, the adventure begins. There, she meets Chidum, a human from Africa who is on a mission. What kind of relationship will they form, will they be able to protect each other? #tsc22
