Synopsis: Rachel and Magma go sight-seeing in New York. While leaving the museum they spot Selene, a past tormentor for both of them at one point in time.They decide to track her all the way to the Hellfire Club. Meanwhile, Storm boards a cruise ship to Norway, deciding to take a leave of absence from the X-Men and head to her homeland of Africa. The X-Men wish her a tearful goodbye. Back at the Hellfire Club, Amara and Rachel take on Selene and the Hellfire Club only to be overwhelmed and outnumbered.
