In Kyber, everyone has a neural implant that allows them to interact with the society around them. These implants are vital to everyday life, especially in Kyber City, where life and tech moves fast. If you can't afford to upgrade, you're left behind, then forced to leave the city that you can no longer interface with. You head to the lower levels, and you do what it takes to survive. For Rebecca and her friends, all with the previous generations of implants, surviving means entering the technically illegal tournaments held in the lower levels. They use their implants' built-in security, a totally personalized suit of armor synthesized from light and energy, and battle for prize money to hopefully make it another week or two. Rebecca, Gabrielle, and Elaina are three sisters who live with a class of armor that isn't supposed to exist. As far as the public knows, 'guardian-class' armor was destroyed years ago, or possibly just never existed. To keep themselves hidden they typically stay behind the scenes and avoid 'armoring up' while in public. It's gone well for the past four and a half years. Then Wesley almost dies, a hacker brings down an 'invincible' tournament network in a few minutes, and suddenly the secret of their armor is out and someone is offering a reward for their armor that just so happens to be exactly what the winner of the tournament would have received. Suddenly on the run, forced to confront how little they actually know about each other, the team relies on new friends and old connections in a hunt for the truth of what's really going on in Kyber City, why the three girls were created, and what happens next.
