Jonathan and Andrew navigate life in Demondale, California, where perpetual darkness has transformed Sunnydale into a monster paradise. The Mayor's sun-blocking device opened the Hellmouth permanently, creating a safe haven for vampires and demons. Jonathan and Andrew try to make names for themselves as supervillains while Anya, a three-hundred-year-old vengeance demon, works at an evil juice bar and searches for new purpose. Their world shifts when a powerful new threat arrives. Buffy the Vampire Slayer has become this reality's ultimate Big Bad, determined to eliminate all evil through any means necessary. Jonathan, Andrew, and Anya must unite Demondale's most dangerous villains to stop her. They recruit Angelus, Spike, Drusilla, and Ripper, the malevolent magic shop owner. The unlikely team faces their greatest challenge yet: working together despite their pride and differences to defeat the most dangerous force their town has ever seen.
