Ororo leaves Forge’s building but notes something amiss from some distance away when some FBI agents demand entrance, only to turn out to be Dire Wraiths out to kill Forge. One of them attacks Ororo, who in turn is saved by Forge’s elderly mentor, Naze. The two of them decide to help Forge together, however when she opens the door to the elevator shaft Ororo is entangled with the line and dragged upward. She manages to free herself but faces another Wraith on the roof, which she manages to shut out in the winter cold to freeze to death. Suddenly, she, Forge, Nate and the Wraith are trapped in a mental rapport that fortunately passes quickly. She confronts Forge and asks about this but he answers evasively. Despite her anger, she offer help and he gives her a gun. In spite of their cloaking spells, Ororo manages to sense the presence of a Wraith. As punishment, the Wraith casts an illusion, intending for Forge to kill Storm but he can’t tell her apart from the Wraiths, thanks to his magic powers. They are joined by Naze, who strangely flees when the X-Men Colossus and Rogue come crashing through the roof. The four of them take off for the penthouse to face the last of the Wraiths and face an army. Forge senses it’s an illusion. While the X–Men battle he creates holograms of Rom and Starshine to distract the real Wraiths, enabling him to kill them. However, a moment later, a rift erupts in midair and blackness engulfs them…
