Angel Shishido-Drake, better known as Dragon to everyone, is suppose to uphold the Drake legacy with her seventeen half-siblings. Of course, Dragon tends to be the problem of the family. Twenty-two years old, Dragon should be in her prime, but instead she's just in the prime for trouble. Due to her troublesome actions and the shameful act she committed eight years ago, she is forced to repay the debt she owes her mother. She doesn't do this by working her day job as an assistant mechanic or her evening job of being a bartender at a local university bar. She is forced to work at the Lilac Lounge, a high-class brothel her mother owns for the world's elite to enjoy their time. Despite this, Dragon is sane. Everything that happens at Lilac helps her to grow, and twist the reality of love, money, and power into a dark beast that breathes an angry inferno into her. Although she struggles with herself, she has to participate in her mother's idea of the Hunger Games: an event that will test the Drake heirs to see who will carry on the Drake Legacy when their mother is gone. Dragon considers resigning, giving up the last name Drake to become just Angel Shishido; yet, becoming the absolute heir may be the ultimate form of revenge Dragon desires to enact upon her mother. She just has to decide if she's ready to become the bitter beast her mother became, or to choose a different path for herself.

10 years into the future four sisters discover they have unusual super powers. While reading the journals of their recently deceased mother she supernaturally speaks to them from the past. (Mary died suddenly due to a newly released hyper-virus by The Powers That Be.) The young women discover not only had their mother been quenching their powers since they were babies but through her journals is now urging them to to do the exact opposite. "Rise up! *You were born for such a time as this." However the recent abandonment by their mother in death and their father in grief has left them struggling as they've been thrust into adulthood overnight. The world desperately needs them. Will they stop bickering and worrying about boys, fashion and proms long enough to save the day? *Esther 4:4 Gifts: Baby in the corner Beth (19) has the ability to draw her heart's desires. She thinks it's only while using her big box of 64 crayons. She doesn't realize the power is in her mind's eye and not her writing implements. Jo (20) can teleport. Of course she doesn't always stick her landings. At first her landings are as messy as is her life. She's lost her mother, her family home, her faith and now thinks she may be losing her mind. Supercilious self-absorbed Amy (17) has the uncanny ability to get others to do what she wants. She says, ever so sweetly, "I'd prefer..." Dad always called it "wrapping others around her little finger syndrome." If she wanted she could ask a perfect stranger to hand over his car keys and he'd have to oblige. The oldest sister Meg (21) has dreams and visions about the world's near future. She's also very intuitive. Perhaps if she were better at seeing her own future maybe her personal life wouldn't be in shambles?
