Planet Earth is barely a drop of water in the greater universe. In this universe, energy floats about, enough to fill up many planets. Some of this energy has been collected into a solid object, a crystal, which has fallen through planet Earth's atmosphere.
After landing in the ocean, the Crystal of Energy was swallowed by a shark, who became powerful after touching it and absorbing its energy. Humans on a boat recovered the crystal from there, and, after their attempt to send the crystal back to outer space, the crystal instead fell back down into the Earth, splitting into 10 pieces and landing in various places.
Now a group of young adult friends are embarking on a journey around the country, to collect the 10 fragments of the crystal from their various locations in Florida, Georgia, Virginia, D.C., Maryland, Alaksa, Hawaii, and Egypt.
