Marcus Fenix is a nine year old boy growing up to a wealthy family of scientists to the Coalition of Ordered Governments, the only military of the Planet Sera with a 26 hour day. Already frustrated that his mother is occupied with research on a mysterious subterranean species of so-called “monsters”, he is faced with his father Adam leaving for deployment once again. Marcus retreats to his best friends Carlos and Dom’s family: The Santiago household. Meanwhile Prescott, the Chairman of the COG is conducting a project for children to enlist in the army for extra support, and mainly a learning experience. While Adam Fenix is reoccupied with redeployment, his missing wife, and the development of a deadly weapon, Marcus along with his friends enlist to the military to escape the lives they were currently living, to only be faced with hardships and the opposite of what they were looking for: Girls, hope, and a better life.
