They came out of nowhere, by complete surprise. Within months, the Republic of the Milky Way, which had experienced great wealth and prosperity, was brought to its knees. However, in its darkest time, two recruits, along with their allies, helped achieve the impossible and helped repel the invaders, becoming galactic heroes in the process. However, they withdrew from public life and have gone into hiding, most people not knowing where they had gone. Over twenty years later, at the same military academy the heroes had attended, a new class is formed, focusing on special operations. For what purpose was this class formed, and does it have any connection to the heroes of the past?

Kacie Janacek's dream of becoming a hero has finally come true, but instead of feeling satisfied, she's more uncertain about her future than ever before. The media reporters follow Kacie's every move, forcing her into the spotlight. Between balancing her birth mother causing trouble, and her senior year becoming overwhelming... Kacie should feel free, but she only feels left out. What exactly does it mean to be a hero? When Kacie's school announces a trip to Crystal City, the famous city of heroes, it sounds like the perfect time for Kacie and Jax to take a break. But Kacie has a mission--she is responsible for locating the elusive light manipulator, Kaleidoscope, who mysteriously disappeared years ago. After all, Kaleidoscope could hold the key to defeating Phantom Shadow, once and for all... that is, if Kacie can find them. Kacie might be a powerless hero, but she must find it within herself to rise before Astral City falls. || This is the sequel to Starlight. It cannot be read as a standalone.
