Amina nurses the Guardian back to health, and she works with him to get the Powerstar back from the one of their world's most dangerous men, the Evil King Zurick. Along the way, Amina and the Guardian become closer... much closer than they certainly thought they would. On their long and tireless journey, they meet others who share their same goal of taking down Zurick and regaining the Powerstar. Ultimately tensions are raised when Zurick claims he will have Amina for his own. Doing their best to survive danger, Amina, the Guardian, and their allies will work together to put an end to their adversary's evil.
