So the Alliance makes plans to leave New York and find a safer location to live. But then a trio of off worlders appear at their door begging for help. The leader of the Alliance, Sean Donnelly has to make a split second decision rather to save them or let the scavengers take out their enmity on them. Donnell places them under his protection with the help of his daughter, Blaze.

Earth and Fire
Jarra meets up with Gradin to beg him to finish teaching her to fly so that she can get her pilot's license. He reluctantly agrees, but on their first time up the landing is rather rough and Gradin goes off on a dramatic tangent. Jarra runs away in tears and isn't sure she is going to continue but then realizes that if she doesn't she will never fly again. After Jarra returns for her flying lessons they are notified that there is a huge fire in Athens that is threatening the Pantheon. Gradin takes Jarra along to see what kind of pilot she will be, the kind that helps others or those that just fly their route.
Earth and Air
It is the beginning of the Schools history club outing to Fringe and there are three new members along for the first time. During the mornings, Jarra continues her flight lessons and the afternoon are spent helping the 3 newbies, one is a very small girl, age 12 that uncomfortably reminds Jarra of herself the first year she went to Fringe with her history club.
Earth Girl
It is the beginning of 2789, Jarra is 18 now and starting her history foundation year, but instead of being a dutiful ape and attending University Earth, she rebelled and signed up with an off-world university, Asgard. Because of that one decision she changes the course of Earth and ultimately humanity as well.
