In an alternate 21st century, the robotics industry undergoes a period of rapid advancement worldwide. By the year 2050, Japan has firmly established itself as the leader in robotic technology and manufacture with Daiwa Heavy Industries. As the technology evolves to include robotic enhancements to the human body, the blurring of the line between man and machine triggers a sudden shift in world opinion. In response, the U.N. passes a unilateral ban of further research and development on robotics in 2067. Japan fiercely objects to this ban, but is unable to prevent its passage. In protest, Japan withdrew from international politics and chose to pursue a policy of high-tech national isolation. While only trade continues, Japan disappears from the world scene. Ten years later, a series of bizarre incidents lead the American technology police agency SWORD to believe that Japan has concealed extensive development of banned technologies through the use of the RACE network. SWORD dispatches a unit of special agents to infiltrate Japan and gather intelligence on the country. Vexille, a veteran agent among the group, uncovers the horrifying truth behind the ten years of isolation.

Jack and Annie are siblings who live in the small American town of Frog Creek. The two of them could not be more different, as Jack reads all the books he can get his hands on, while Annie charges headfirst into adventure, even if it means getting up close and personal with a muddy frog. When the two kids happen upon a treehouse full of books in the woods, they are shocked when Jack's offhanded comment about wanting to visit the land of dinosaurs—depicted in one of the books they find—ends up transporting both them and the treehouse millions of years into the past! While Annie is excited to explore their new surroundings, Jack is more concerned about getting home in one piece. However, when he finds a strange medallion that clearly was made by other humans, Jack's find soon kicks off an adventure that will take the siblings across ages and continents.
