Malcolm embraces his true identity, Malachi "Kai" Gabrielson, and reconnects with his brother Elisha through King Sander. Now Kai and his friend Justin must get their team back together to defend Digital Earth from a real threat. Xanubis, the Jackals' king, seeks to add their planet to his empire, when Xanubis has earned a gruesome, violent reputation. Justin and Kai's first hurdle is convincing Alex-Sander, Chance, and Elisha to empower and equip them to defend their home rather than raise the planetary shield that had blocked out even King Sander. Meanwhile, Justin exposes Sander's darkest secrets and this destabilizes him to a point where everything is at risk.
