The fate of the world rests on the shoulders of children.

To combat this new threat the Julia system was created to even the odds.
The test pilots for this new Mecha technology are the most unlikely of heroes. Scoring below average these five Enhanced Children are to become Earth’s saviours. Can they live up to the expectations thrust upon them or will they crack under the pressure?
