After a devastating world war and a hundred-year rebuilding period, the people of the world have united to give mankind a new vision for the future and had built the starship named the Ascension to open a colony on Europa. Crisis arises when a wormhole takes the Ascension to the other side of the galaxy. The crew manages to find a new planet to land the Ascension on and call their new home Quail.
Unknown to the newcomers, they are being watched by a race called the Ceptoids. The Ceptoids are a race of six-foot-tall centipede beings that watch these new aliens invade their world. After clashes with the humans, peace is made when a new threat becomes apparent, and a new race is on to evacuate the planet.
Hope is one of the children sent out into space in a pod to look for a new world to live on. Hope's pod is knocked into a wormhole and emerges in our solar system and lands on Earth in 1987. Hope wants to just fit into life on her new planet, but a special military unit and the FBI are hunting her and her pod. Hope is alone on the planet and now on the defensive as she tries to blend in and stay ahead of the search as she begins to make plans for a future attack.
