    Summary

    Eight trillion heartbeats hang by a thread, and five hold the needle.

    A meteorite strikes through Earth's starry veil, and with it, reality. They should be dead.
    Instead, they’re fugitives on the run.

    Admitted after the impact, they wake to uncontrollable powers, cryptic markings, and the government hot on their heels. Breaking out of custody brands them criminals. Discovering their powers are tethered to alien mecha lions—now clawing into existence as mythic, terrifying beasts —is somehow not the worst revelation.

    Because never does fate pause to ask permission. If it did, they’d all scream “Hell no” and keep screaming.

    But fate is deaf. So.
    A rebel princess arrives with death: they’re the key to saving every atom. To twist the knife, her violent, estranged childhood friend is the son of the universe’s tyrant overlord—a shadow cast across half the cosmos.

    Because life is a cruel joke; they're the punchline.

    Lance wants nothing more than to go home. Keith wants anything but. Pidge refuses to see their story end at sixteen. Hunk just wants to stop his friends from tearing each other apart.
    And Shiro doesn’t care about the cosmos or its laughter. Only that they survive it.
