Justin Graham is a junior at Preston High. He has a close group of friends that do everything together. One of these friends, Lisa, is also the object of all his love and affection. He longs to be with her, but she spends all of her time with another guy, another of Justin's friends, Jake North. At school, Justin is just another average guy, but in the EverGame, he is the leader of a squad of elite adventurers, Jake one of them. In the EverGame, Justin can do anything he sets his mind to, if only he could show Lisa how strong he really is... Jake North is also a junior at Preston High. He is a member of Justin's team in the Game, but his friends tell him that he acts the same both in and out of the game: quiet and reserved. Jake' best friend is Lisa, and she is always trying to get him to break out of his introverted shell. Life for Jake was fairly uneventful. Then one day, Justin starts acting strangely... Jake's world of peace and solitude is about to fall to pieces around him.
