When a piece of the Terminus Station crashes to Earth, Meichol finds himself on the outskirts of a destroyed desert city. Wounded, he prays he can find more suitable shelter before night falls. Before he can get far, though, he meets Nick. The human nurse helps Meichol back to a basement shelter with other survivors, and they strike up a friendship—and mutual attraction. But the struggle is far from over, especially when another meteor strike lands another Terminus denizen named Corin practically in their laps. The three men, from very different cultures and races, somehow manage to find a way to work together while struggling to survive.
