After the deaths of their parents, murdered during a brutal attack, Devin, Danica, and Dustin must find a way to quiet the dark emotions churning inside them and learn to control their newly discovered gifts or they, too, will fall victims to the darkness consuming the city. Three years later, the children are pushing forward with the help of their friends, and new family, the Demons.
