PROLOGUE

Stargazer Seville woke up as the alarm clock on her bedside table began to ring. Then, the radio began to play. "Good morning. This is Tiara Fox with A.P. Radio News. Recently rescued pop singer Hannah Montana has announced a 20-show 'Return to Destiny' tour, set to begin on September 13th. Montana's new managers, Alvin and Brittany Seville, made the announcement this morning," the reporter said.

"Hannah wishes to return to her normal life," Alvin began. "So, she has decided to do just that—in the only way she knows how to do: by entertaining her millions of fans around the world."

Brittany continued: "The tour will begin at the Staples Center in Los Angeles on September 13th," Brittany said. "Serving as Hannah's opening act for the entire tour will be Team Chipmunk: The Next Generation, a band formed and led by our daughter, Stargazer."

Star got out of bed and moved over to her desk, where she kept her electronic journal. She began to write:

These are the things I know:

My name is Stargazer Cerulean Miller-Seville. I was born September 24, 2009 in Washington, District of Columbia USA. My parents are Alvin Seville and Brittany Miller-Seville, leaders respectively of the Chipmunks and Chipettes music groups.

I graduated from East High School in my adopted hometown of Albuquerque, New Mexico with the Class of 2028. I have also formed a new music group entitled "Team Chipmunk: The Next Generation" with the descendants of the many allies whom my parents worked with before I was born.

Until recently, I knew only these things. Then, after our rescue of the long-lost pop singer Hannah Montana, I learned so much more about my true nature.

My conception was the result of the combination of three entities: my mother Brittany, my father Alvin, and an entity named Stargazer Starheart.

As both my parents and the spirit of my namesake tell the tale, Stargazer Starheart and an ancient wizard named Zordon needed to reanimate the Autobot warrior named Ultra Magnus. Before her body disappeared into the mists of time, Stargazer merged with my mother, saying "May a new life arise from this gift."

I was that new life. And last night, I was visited by the spirit of Stargazer Starheart.

After a quite unusual dream, the details of which are too numerous and complicated to go into detail here, Stargazer informed me that the dream was a result of the awakening of Stargazer's powers within me.

Stargazer's spirit went on to inform me that some of the things that happened in the dream had happened...or will happen...in the waking world. She—Stargazer—said that while I would not know when these things will happen in the waking world, I would indeed know the difference between the dream world and reality.

Stargazer looked up from her journal as her cell phone began to ring. "Hello?" Star said. "Star, this is Miley. Have I caught you at a bad time?" Miley "Hannah Montana" Stewart said.

"No, Miley. What's on your mind?" Star asked. "Well, Carter asked me to be his girlfriend!" Miley exclaimed. "I said 'yes,' of course."

Star fell silent for a moment. In the dream brought on by the awakening of Stargazer Starheart's powers, Star saw that Miley and Carter Evans had begun a romance. And now, it seems, they had also done so in the waking world.

"Star, are you still there?" Miley asked. "Uh...yeah, I am, Miley. Congratulations to you and Carter," Star recovered. "See you at rehearsals."

Star hung up on Miley and turned back to her electronic journal.

I just got a phone call from Miley Stewart, who is also known as Hannah Montana-the long-lost pop singer we rescued recently. She said that Carter Evans asked Miley to be his girlfriend—something that happened in the dream.

So, so far, Stargazer's words on my new powers are coming true. So...does this mean that Jon will propose to me soon? End entry.

Star saved the entry, then shut off her journal. Standing up from her desk, Star looked out of her bedroom window at the expansive Pacific Ocean stretched out before her. Then, after getting dressed, Star went out to begin her day.
