The young heroes sleep for the night, only to be stalked by an unidentified cybernetic creature. Juston is attacked and the Sentinel he is working on folds around him apparently crushing him. The story is told by Cammi, who is hunting the mysterious hunter. After a brief fight she teams up with Darkhawk to find the stalker. Cammi is ambushed by X-23 who has been hunting the mysterious stalker as well. Disappointed in herself, Cammi pushes herself into an intense training session. Darkhawk is seemingly injured by the cybernetic creature when it manipulates his armor and tears his transformation amulet from his chest, regressing him back to normal Christopher Powell.
