Global warming (caused by adults) has caused primeval fire creatures to revive and there is a secret and losing struggle to defeat them by a group called Gaia. As a last resort, Gaia have trained a team of youngsters (not all human) in the art of effective decision-making and have thrown them into the fray.
They have ten days to destroy the fire creatures. After this, the creatures will multiply at such a rate, they would become unbeatable.
If the creatures are not defeated and the rate of warming the planet is not reduced Ð mankindÕs existence will end.
