In 1985, during the Cold War, a government project began to send Americans into space and create new life, or be utilized to attack the Soviets from above. A group of approximately 500 were sent up, some were scientists, soldiers, while others were just civilians of useful trades (such as doctors). Americans only, although that didn't just mean "white Americans".
The space station, dubbed "Always" was fitted with bio-engineering, with domes for plants to grow, with water to create hydroelectricity, and to draw energy from the sun. At first the plan was to remain in orbit around Earth, but soon they realized that the Soviets would soon learn, so they left, planning on returning when called back, whether it be to return to Earth, or to strike from above at the Soviets.
Years later, as they traveled, the crew received a distress call from a planet being ravaged by some sort of space enemy. Some on the Always called them pirates, but they would soon learn that this enemy preferred to be called an empire.
Some soldiers went to make land on this new planet, and there they encountered the leader of the strike. He was operating under orders from a being called "Dark Specter", and his young heir, "Astronema". This man attacked the Earth soldiers with his monsters, slaughtering all but one.
The survivor made it to the village that had been under attack and retrieved as many people as possible from this jungle planet. Their shaman healed the soldier as best as he could, and brought with them five stones. Upon returning to the Always, the ship departed and the stones were scanned. They were found to hold great power, but only receptive to a select few. Mostly youths. Children.
The Always came into contact with more of this "empire" as they attempted to flee, and did their best to survive. They managed to escape and make their way back towards Earth over the years. However, as they tried to return, one more attack caught them off guard and sent them limping off, damaged, into a part of space they had never been to in the past.
This was years ago. Now five youths are able to utilize these crystals. Dark Specter's empire is still hunting, with Astronema at their head, leading the forces. These five must fight for the only world they know, and try to return to Earth.
