To be given the ability to have your dreams come true may seem like an amazing power, but the same can't be said for Akira, who has been living with it long enough to realize that it's nothing but a curse. A curse which cannot be lifted and it is the same reason why she wants nothing to do with the events happening in her dreams. 

However, when suddenly one night, her dreams start to get darker, she has no choice but to face her fate and fight through the trials life has in store for her.

Walking along with her on this journey is Magus, a mysterious man, who knows the answer to all her questions. Questions she herself didn't know existed until this man came and made her question all the incidents happening around her that Akira at first didn't find weird , but at a closer look, some things didn't fit in the puzzle.

Can she survive everything and remain strong till the end? Or will she be trapped in a nightmare, far worse than anything she could have ever dreamed of?

Before she can even recover from the shock, she's thrust into a war that she hadn't even known existed. Loyalties will be tested. She'll have to choose sides between all of the people she's come to care about. Will she stand with her family, her new friends, or the two boys who both hold a piece of her heart?
