Seven extraterrestrial predators have come to Earth and slaughtered thousands of humans by feeding on their spinal fluids. At her home, teenager Courtney Mason rebels against her dysfunctional family by going on a spending spree. On the run in New Orleans, Courtney is kidnapped by a cult which sacrifices her to two of these insatiable parasites, Pritor and Lissik. The parasites’ bites unleashes the Animus, an impossibly strong extradimensional monster, which is now able to enter the world through Courtney. Meanwhile, the Titans are called to investigate a biohazard situation in New Orleans on behalf of Steve Dayton. As Anima, Courtney seeks revenge against the cult and encounters the New Titans. Courtney – now a runaway reluctant super-hero – realizes that her life is forever changed and that she just may be the most powerful force on Earth.
