Throughout all of time, the species known as the vampire fruit bat has been ridiculed and put down as an ugly farmer's pest, or a rodent, or a piece of vermin that needed to be destroyed. Never have they been treated fairly, with kindness, and so never have they felt included, which eventually led to their downward spiral as a species in general. The fruit bats themselves believed they were never meant to be anything but rodents that ate fruit. It was just how life worked, and life wasn't fair.

However, when one group of vampire fruit bats is brainwashed to deny the reason they believe they exist, what will they do next? Is it possible they could become a civilized species as opposed to a mindless group of fruit-eating pests? And what - or who - could possibly help them achieve this goal?
