This science fiction is about a girl, Sybele, whose parents were kidnapped by gunmen sent by El Pedro (a notorious drug lord) during a civil war. Sybele managed to escape and she ended up on a remote and desert island where she was stranded for several weeks due to a leg injury. Life was not easy on the island, but she somehow managed to stay alive. She met a lemur (Chica) that provided great companionship and became her best friend. She fortuitously discovered a meteorite emitting violet rays under specific conditions that could do lots of damages. The meteorite actually originated from Asteroid Icarus which itself fragmented into millions of pieces after a series of events. Sybele planned to convert the meteorite into a weapon that she could use to take revenge from the culprits behind her misery and to save her parents in case they were still alive. She was able to leave the island together with the lemur using an abandoned and damaged boat that she repaired. She successfully conducted experiments on the meteorite in her father's (Carl) lab and sought her boyfriend's (Alex) help to develop weapons. Through the assistance of Ben (Alex's uncle), she was able recover the active part from the meteorite and made two portable weapons which proved to be very powerful. Sybele formed a team and infiltrated El Pedro's den, where she found her parents and eventually rescued them thanks to the weapons she made. Sybele was successful in neutralizing the threats, but El Pedro's was successful in fleeing the country. The secret weapons got destroyed in the encounter, but luckily Sybele discovered additional meteorites on the remote island and had plenty of active materials to make new weapons to defend her parents and herself against any potential attack initiated by El Pedro.
