Sunspot relives the horrible events that led to Karma’s seeming death, blaming himself for her change. He and the other New Mutants travel to Madripoor, following Karma to find out what made her change. The team attacks but find themselves overwhelmed by Karma’s power; only Magik and Mirage escape to Limbo. When they return, they find that Karma framed them for the murder of her guards. Mirage orders Magik to teleport to Cairo, Egypt, where Karma has her other hideout. Inadvertently, they shift into the far past, where they run into and are helped by an ancestor of Storm’s. Teleporting again, they end up in the near future, where they find that their teammates have turned as evil as Karma. Dejected, they finally teleport to the right time, getting into a heated argument, until they are joined by the still-free Warlock and Storm, whom Warlock has brought to help.
