Spike knew he wasn't normal, but he never knew why. A few weeks after he graduated high school, he got a scholarship from G.E.A.R.S University, the most exclusive university in the Solaris System! G.E.A.R.S University trains young men and women to be Mecha Pilots, and when they graduate, they become fighters in the war that has been going on against a strange species of alien called the Shadowscythe. Will Spike be able to fight in the war? And will he be able to learn about who he really is?
