Sixteen-year-old trans boy Benji is on the run from the cult that raised himthe fundamentalist sect that unleashed Armageddon and decimated the worlds population. Desperately, he searches for a place where the cult cant get their hands on him, or more importantly, on the bioweapon they infected him with.
But when cornered by monsters born from the destruction, Benji is rescued by a group of teens from the local Acheson LGBTQ+ Center, affectionately known as the ALC. The ALCs leader, Nick, is gorgeous, autistic, and a deadly shot, and he knows Benjis darkest secret: the cults bioweapon is mutating him into a monster deadly enough to wipe humanity from the earth once and for all.
Still, Nick offers Benji shelter among his ragtag group of queer teens, as long as Benji can control the monster and use its power to defend the ALC. Eager to belong, Benji accepts Nicks termsuntil he discovers the ALCs mysterious leader has a hidden agenda, and more than a few secrets of his own.
