As the X-Men fly overhead with Magneto
safely aboard, the Soviet Super-Soldiers are still captives of the
Darkforce; they manage to snap Darkstar out of the hypnotic trance
Dr Druid put her under so that she trapped her allies while thinking she
held her enemies. Crimson Dynamo rallies the team to go after them,
accidentally letting slip that he hates mutants, which the team
members are....
Back in Kampuchea, the Avengers are
trying to determine where the X-Men have gone, when they are
mystically contacted by Dr Druid who is hiding invisibly aboard the
X-Men's Blackbird—but Druid is detected and his memories are stolen
by Rogue. The Blackbird is damaged and they have to make an emergency
landing in Singapore....
When Dr Druid recovers his memories he
calls the Avengers to let them know where to come, along with the
Soviet heroes who are following stealthily. As the Avengers search
the city for the X-Men, the disguised Vanguard has a dangerous
encounter with Wolverine and Rogue. Discovered, the X-Men take off
aboard a Dutch freighter. Magneto is pondering whether he can use the
circuitry recovered from his fallen asteroid base to wipe out
prejudice from the human race. But the Super-Soldiers arrive and
demand Magneto be turned over to them. A battle between the opposing
mutant teams breaks out and a distress call is sent by the ship's
captain, bringing the Avengers. Crimson Dynamo goes extreme and blast
a hole in the side of the ship which Captain Marvel (Monica Rambeau)
tries to repair but can't. The Avengers, the X-Men, and the Soviet
Super-Soldiers join forces to rescue the crew of the sinking ship.
When Crimson Dynamo appears, Darkstar takes him captive, accusing him
of sabotaging the ship—ironically repeating a crime he wanted
Magneto executed for. The Soviets take CM to turn him over to the
maritime authorities, trusting the others to deal with Magneto....
Miles away, Magneto is on another ship
headed back to Singapore, though the captain doesn't recognize him
from the cruise....
