After defeating Lucifer and sacrificing Jack, the love of her life, Schuyler wakes up back in New York safe and sound. Only it's not quite the New York she knows-- and she's not in her regular body. She looks different, her parents are both alive and well-- and Jack is not dead, but has no idea who she is. Turns out this is an alternate reality-- one where Lucifer is alive and well and the Mayor of New York. Blue Bloods are luring humans to clinics to drain their blood, and Jack is Lucifer's right hand man. It seems Schuyler was sent here to defeat Lucifer. Again. And that she's the only person in this universe or any universe that can defeat him.... -- Jacket.
