Story
Thunderbird is in Limbo fighting demons, but losing until Wolverine and Magik enter and save him. Magik tells the two men what is going on and sets out to stop the next lot of N’Garai possessed X-Men, while Neal and Wolverine stay in Limbo to keep the oncoming N’Garai hordes at bay. In Rome, Phoenix and Beast reminisce before stating what they know about the cairns and Jean tells Beast that most of the X-Men have fallen. As they approach a cathedral, Colossus is flung out and the Ru’tai Pilgrimm follows, Beast knows the demon and they get into a fight. As Colossus starts to come around, Jean pulls Beast onto the Astral Plane and as she is without her telekinesis, offers to use her psychic powers to boost his strength and stamina to stop their two enemies. Beast accepts the offer and manages to hold Pilgrimm at bay. The possessed Nightcrawler watches the battle, until he spots Magik arriving. Magik is slightly dizzy from the feedback the church is giving her and engages in battle with Nightcrawler, something she was not looking forward to doing, as she begins to lose the battle, Jean uses her psychic powers and halts the three enemies, until the N’Garai turn her powers back on her. Beast saves Jean but his soul is taken by the N’Garai, Magik manages to save his body in her Soulsword, and the possessed Colossus disposes of Pilgrimm. The two possessed X-Men tell Magik that they have all they need now and she will lose, before Magik and Phoenix go to Limbo and prepare for the upcoming battle with Wolverine and Thunderbird.
