The Juvenile Delinquents (JD's) attempt to create a new world order following a disastrous series of events that culminates in a catastrophic circumstance capable of seeing them incarcerated. Forced to band together the dysfunctional group of teens fight everything including themselves, as they try to find a purpose for their endangered freedom, which they must protect as repercussions loom. The story starts when five male graduates of juvenile detention out on a lark, run into two drunk girls in the park. This fateful turn reunites two friends and sets all seven teens on a course of misadventure towards bloodshed. Bonds of brotherhood and friendship mix with the unease of being total strangers as abrupt escalations initiate enduring binds. Under duress, group survival requires the teens to conquer problems resulting from their mistakes, desires, competitiveness and core function of resistance to authority. Danny a by-product of his mother's aspirations to marry money tries to lead the group but is relentlessly challenged by orphan and troublemaker Nick, who survived a tough upbringing by having his biggest problems solved by elder brother Marko, who is a powerful conflict resolution device. Nick's partner in crime Ryker, was raised by his devoted dad in a house not fit for children, the mirror opposite of forced recruit Chris, who comes from a supportive and loving family, leaving him little in common with most, and struggling to fit in. None of the boys were serious criminals until their chance meeting with child abuse survivor Sarah and fellow runaway Lin becomes the catalyst for carnage.
