N'astirh tries to stike a deal with Magneto and the Hellfire Club. Magik battles S'ym but when her brother arrives, she teleports the New Mutants to Limbo in shame as she doesn't want Colossus to see the creature she has become. The New Mutants enter a Limbo stepping disc into the past and rescue the six-year old Illyana. Magik tries to kill her younger, innocent self but Wolfsbane talks her out of it. Magik sends the demons and S'ym back to Limbo and seals it shut, but the massive expulsion of power reverts her back to being a six-year old child.

New York returns to normal and the Inferno is quenched. The X-Men and X-Factor vow to track down Mr. Sinister and make him pay.
