The best of the best compete at the International Circus Festival in Paris. Sora wants to win it, just like Layla did three years ago. The dream takes flight when Layla shows up at Kaleido Stage. In her hands is a Phoenix ticket, which allows one lucky pair to enter the festival. The festival itself is a cruel place. Sora must endure betrayal and doubt. Worse, to make her dream come true, she will have to destroy the dreams of others. Is that the kind of Kaleido Star Sora wants to be?
