"Courage isn't a smile one puts on but is the well into which tears are shed." Reunited, Annie, Naso and Osani search for Pika as an old foe wages war with both human and animal kingdoms. To help Naso and Osani understand the imminent danger, Annie shares how a secret warrior society and spirit animals trained her over the past few years. More importantly, she's learned about the Middle Kingdom and how it connects heaven and hell. She reveals that Yanluo, the King of Hell, has escaped, and they must find Pika to help them save the human and animal kingdoms from the spirits who wish to destroy them. Together again, they learn that faith, family and love grows from the seeds sown within their own hearts.
