As Cortez and his conquistadors invaded the empire, a band of Aztecs ran north to hide the artifacts in the sands of Red Springs, Nevada. It is there, 500 years later, that a group of high school students stumble upon the most powerful of the artifacts. With a single cut and giving of blood, Eric Atl and his friends are gifted with powers over the planet: air, earth, fire, flora, and water. Now able to control water, Eric dons the mantle of Waterman to save his city.

Terror reigns here, casting a gloom upon the once bright metropolitan of Elko, Nevada.
