The end of the year 2013 is quickly approaching, and new evidence has been discovered which proves the original prediction for the end of the Mayan Calendar was misinterpreted by one year. When devastating natural disasters begin to occur worldwide and strange lights are seen in the sky, it would seem the end really has begun this time. Or is it the opportunity for a new beginning? Certain individuals, the Chosen Ones, begin to have paranormal experiences they dont understand, but will help them in their race against time to overcome impossible odds and lead them to safety. Erik Stevenson, an architect in New Jersey, his wife Katie and son, Michael, vacation in Egypt. The spirit of an ancient pharaoh appears to Erik and eventually leads him to a mysterious scroll.

When they return to New Jersey, Erik meets Rhonda Kalu, an exotic club owner and medium, who is blessed with the gift of seeing and channeling spirits.
