Welcome to the future, where only the fittest and most talented survive. There is no place in the world for those who are weak, and those who don't make it into a secure place in the world hierarchy are pushed to the side and ignored. They're treated like mere objects, things that can be discarded once they have served their purpose and are no longer needed. But of course among those who are inferior, are the superior. In the world of lights, those who are at the top of the hierarchy are the few people who hold the power to change the future. But how are those people selected?
Everyone possesses a light. A thousand years ago, a force known as "lights" took over, and ever since then people have been born with supernatural abilities.
Enter Nakajima Atsuko, your average sleep deprived, quiet kid. He's been through an unspeakable amount of trauma; something no person can even imagine. But of course life isn't simple, especially not his. He's bullied, and it's been happening for as long as he can remember. Because in this world, the strong eat the weak. But one day, he fights back, tired of being pushed around. And the light within him that had once been weak and frail, bursts alive, pushing out all the pent up strength in him. The former invisible, quiet boy comes to life.
Things don't end here as simply as you see it. Because nothing remains as it is. Like a mirror shattering from a single hit, its pieces slowly falling from its frame, something that was intact just a moment ago, now the beautiful, clear shards hitting the ground. Because Atsuko's life is just about to begin. . .

*****
Cash West formed the Seven 20s - a gang of six overzealous teens with guns - to keep his tiny, crime-infested town in nowhere California safe. His methods are unorthodox and frankly illegal, but the town loves his Robin Hood heroics. However, the gang gets more than they bargained for when the Mendoza cartel rolls into town, determined to knock them off the map. As the threat hits closer to home, Cash has no choice but to team up with his ex-girlfriend Tiana's neighboring girl gang, the Hearts of Spades. Soon allies become enemies, families get trapped in the crossfire, and romance brews as Cash fights to unravel a massive conspiracy that puts everyone that matters to him at risk. When the stakes are life and death, will the gangs be able to overcome an enemy more powerful than any of them could have predicted?
