A highly volatile stone accidentally falls into the hands of a young girl who discovers it has a unique power. Unaware of the stone's full potential, Madison Kleigh uses it to help stop the local bullies from shooting innocent rabbits and birds, while all along a deep evil is brewing. And she's not the only person who has an interest in the gem; an interest far more sinister than shooting small animals with BB guns. She finally realizes its true power when her father, destined to be the first man to step foot on Mars, has a life-threatening accident in space.
