Synopsis for "The Guns of Avalon (Part 1)"

At an MI13 holding cell in Redditch, "Mortimer Grimsdale" ordered the guards to kill John the Skrull, but the guards claimed that they had received conflicting orders. "Grimsdale" took out a gun and was prepared to execute John before Pete Wisdom intervened and killed the former, revealing him to be a Skrull. Pete Wisdom revealed that the war had already started.

Captain Britain was already fighting Skrulls above Britain while Faiza Hussain tended to a wounded man and Black Knight neutralized a Skrull Mecha aiming at her. Captain Britain and MI13 met with the Prime Minister, who declared that all British superheroes now worked for MI13. As Alistaire briefed everyone on the situation, he pointed to the Cheviot Hills in Scotland, which Captain Britain pointed out was the location of the Siege Perilous, a gateway to Otherworld and Avalon and where he acquired his powers. Pete Wisdom pointed out that Britain had more magic than anyone else and that if they invaded Avalon, they could take the magic. The Prime Minister instructed Peter, John, and Captain Britain to secure Avalon against invasion with Spitfire, who was at the time, fighting Skrulls.

Black Knight and others searched for survivors of the Skull attack before Faiza was shot. MI13's helicopter was shot down by Skrulls before they attacked Captain Britain, John, Peter, and Spitfire. As a Skrull Assault Ship launched a missile, MI13 realized that the Skrulls weren't planning to invade the Siege Perilous, but to destroy it. Captain Britain and Spitfire flew Peter and John to a safe location before the national symbol flew into the sky and left behind his teammates to stop the missile from hitting Siege Perilous by himself. He reached Siege Perilous at the same time as the missile and was caught in an explosion.
