I was sixteen when I found out not only am I an alien hybrid, but monsters called the Tai-Kok were getting ready to invade our world. Guess who gets to stop them? Me.  How?

My uncle, the mad scientist, created a machine called the portal that instantaneously sends a test subject from one location to another by converting them into energy. His idea is to port me onto a Tai-Kok ship. All I have to do is leave a bomb, hit the retrieval button on my spiffy traveler's belt and poof! I'm back on Earth before the Tai-Kok ship goes kaboom. Sounds simple, right?

Wrong. Uncle Ben doesn't have a clue where I'll actually appear on the ship. It could be the engine room, the crew quarters, or even the bridge. It's like playing Russian roulette. The Tai-Kok don't like surprises or uninvited guests.

 To make things even more fun, I have an alien battle commander stuck in my head and I'm related to a powerful Coletti warlord. Yippee. The chances of me living to see eighteen aren't good.
