Siblings Mimi and Luke are playing in their small-town neighbourhood when they stumble onto the tomb of an ancient alien warlord. The creature, whose only ambition is to wipe out the universe, is revived by the children, but they also get hold of a magical amulet that puts him under their command. Mimi in particular takes to ordering the monster around and dragging him into her childish games, leaving a trail of damage through the quiet suburb. Word travels across the galaxy that the old enemy is active again, and assassins and a coalition of his former adversaries head for Earth.
