In a technologically advanced world, where the wealthy and renowned live above the clouds, life for the impoverished below has a far more sinister fate. If the pollution, turf wars and run-down ghettos weren't enough, the Ether project would surely put their lives to the ultimate test. The President of the village above the clouds--known as The Skylight, has funded a program to rehabilitate a randomly select few of destitute families in an attempt to allow them to join upper society, with the most accomplished family winning five hundred thousand dollars. An offer too good to be true? It must be, considering every family that has participated, has never come back or so Gabriella noticed. What happens when her family is selected to explore this "rehabilitation"? What horrors lie ahead?

He dreams it, and then, it happens again two days later. He tells his parents, his friends, anyone that he can, but they all think that it's just a coincidence.
