X is short for Xenos. X is 17, tough but shy. He's a decent golfer, but his mother thinks he is the next Tiger Woods. One night, X is shocked to discover that he can fly. Is he a superhero? An angel? Or just really screwed up? X's girlfriend, Cat, is pierced, mean, angry and afraid. Ruby watches them both in silence. X admires her, but Ruby thinks she is going crazy. Their lives intersect one terrifying night at a school dance, when X's powers are the only way to save Ruby's life.
