Summary: Everyone learned to keep secrets and Alec was better at it than most. He needed to be after all, he had more to hide. When a raid goes wrong though and he's forced to work with a human named Derek Reese, he begins to trust. Derek seems on the up and up and so they make their way through the resistance, fighting for humanity and trying to keep each other alive. But what happens when Derek finds out that Alec isn't part of humanity, but a Transgenic from Cyberdyne’s Manticore facility? What will happen when humanity's last hope for survival rests on a man that isn't human at all?

Review:
The only thing I knew about the Terminator universe was Arnold Schwarzeneger's "I'll be back" but I knew and liked Dark Angel. I thought why not give it a try. The bonus of the Apocalypse setting lured me further into actually reading the story.

Keeper of Souls makes you think that both universes DA and Terminator are actually one universe. The settings are perfectly woven together. I enjoyed this bleak but still hopeful apocalyptic fic and revisit it from time to time.
