It's been a year since J.J., Seth and Ariah enrolled in the Academy.

But as their sophomore year begins, the cadets will face new foes and new dangers. Meanwhile, alliances and friendships will be tested as one cadet comes face to face with the darkest parts of their own soul.

And, an old (or new, depending on your sense of temporal mechanics) enemy reemerges to put them, the Academy and Earth itself in jeopardy...
