For years Peter Braxton has been hulled up in his church, keeping his congregation safe, while the outside world fell to the ground. The desperation of the End of Times has turned the world into a horrible place. Accepting that his wife has died and that his son, Daniel, has been kidnapped by the Anti-Christ himself, Peter hasn't been able to bring himself out of his own personal hell. But after The Dark discovers where he has been hiding, Peter finds that it's time to head out and make good on the promise he made to his wife before she died: to find their son. Along with Mike, Adrian, Blake, Jeremy and Jennifer, Peter must leave their safe haven and venture out into the unknown.

Out of the protection of the church for the first time, Peter, Mike, Adrian, Jennifer, Blake and Jeremy find themselves being hunted by the army of The Dark. Something isn't right. It seems that, no matter where they go, The Dark is finding them. In the last days, people are forced to do things they never would have thought themselves capable of, even the most innocent of us. Jennifer finds this out the hard way. Blake and Jeremy have to break away form the group, for the safety of them all. Seeking a refuge, Peter, Mike, Adrian and Jennifer find themselves in the clutches of a group of Atheists, and their leader, Lucian.

Being held captive by Lucian and her followers, Peter, Adrian, Jennifer and Mike have to, once again, fight to survive and escape before The Dark comes and takes them away. Enlisting the help of one of one of Lucian's followers, the four escape with nothing but the clothes on their backs. Mike has to dig deep into his dark past to find help, now that the group is on their own. He ultimately does the unthinkable; trading Jennifer to an old associate in exchange for weapons. Blake and Jeremy continue to try to find their way, until The Dark's hold on Jeremy becomes to much. The Dark decides to make a point, and uses Jeremy as the "bait". Meanwhile, The Dark has begun working on Daniel. He wants to convince Daniel that he is not the evil one that everyone believes he is.

Things go from bad to worse, as Mike, Peter and Adrian try to free Jennifer from the clutches of the evil Carlos before she gets auctioned off to the highest bidder. It may take the ultimate sacrifice. Meanwhile, Blake finds himself in a place that he never expected to be, and is reminded that he is always under the watchful eye of The Dark. The world around them is not what it seems, and The Dark knows that his time is coming. What better way to kill the human spirit then to turn a son against a father.

Peter finally gets what he wants, coming face to face with The Dark. But can he convince Daniel to come with him? The Dark has a tight control over Daniel and has shown him things that could make Daniel's dreams come true. The whole team will come face to face with their pasts, and have to make choices of their own. Peter accepts the fact that some wars can't be won, only survived.
