S.H.E.I.L.D and Valeria cooper arrive impressed the kids managed to secure victory, she suggests their skills could be useful then picks up the villains and departs. Hank talks to the team and gives them an option be heroes and forget about school, or go to school and forget about being heroes. He contacts his wife to let her know what’s happening, she thinks he wants the adventure as much as the kids do. She tells him a storm is coming as they plan to stay on Genosha for the night. Inside the storm a woman is being attacked by purple demons. As the team sits together Megan feels the woman’s presence and danger and establishes a link which is broken by the demons. She guides the woman to them and syncs minds with Rico so they can use their powers in tandem. Bekka fries the demons and calms the storm. When the woman regains consciousness she reveals she is sati an Indian hero who was under attack by followers of Kalima. She and hank are also old friends and the team decides to help her out and return to India with her. It seems fate has made the choice for them.

Next in issue #2, “This Lady Kills at Dawn!”, The team arrives in India to a robot going on a rampage, sati attacks but is defeated the team descends and destroys the robots. A mysteries dark haired woman watches all and after the robots defeat she triggers their self destruction then leaves in secret. The team helps the injured then they are taken to the Indian superhero headquarters where they get a bath change clothes and get some food. Rico is obsessively fiddling with the robot part desperate to find out why it’s so familiar. He decides to go for a walk and sati accompanies him much to the dismay of Bekka who reveals she wishes he was doing so with her. Bekka is with beats as she watches no-name and Pavel along with Megan and Oli. The woman from earlier arrives home only to be met by Kalima who is there to teach her a lesson as she has decided to come and play in her backyard, the woman in green screams. Sati asks why Rico keeps his brilliance to himself when he explains his love for music unlike his father and granddad who prefer science. She introduces him to her uncle who plays the sitar he catches on quick and her uncle wishes to have him as a student. After this they continue their stroll with him realizing where he knows the design from. He carries them to a residence and Megan is taken out quickly by mental bolt and Kalima tells them to flee. They don’t listen and a battle erupts. after they battle some demons and rescue the prisoner she wakes up and kisses Rico she is introduced as Sophie von doom, only child of doom and heir to Latveria

Next in issue #3, “Ambush!”, Sophie is brought back to Hero HQ for interrogation and Skanda and beast meet again. We learn Skanda is a god much like Thor and also that India is where beast and Cecelia got series. He ask the Tema and Sati to find out what they can as him and hank interrogate Sophie. She protest but her father has already been contacted and he has no problem with it. The team checks in on Megan who is recovering well even though no one knows how she could be taken down so easily. She retorts her mom won’t be happy while beats says he did well. Her and Oli talk as she confides that Kalima breached all her defense as if they were nonexistent and she’s unsure if she will be able to help if they must face her again. Oli says no matter what he will always save her and the two kiss. No-Name feels useless as she realizes that she never was as she thought the team “brain”. Rico shares his history with Sophie which mirrors his granddad and her fathers, they were friends and the ended enemies (he doesn’t explain why she would kiss him though). They were both thirteen year old wonders of the world going to MIT for a doctorate at that age. After Sophie’s experiments end badly he protects them with his powers but both get booted and his dad send him to Xavier’s and she apparently returned home to dad. Sati visits Megan and touches her why? She does not know but says she often does things she can’t explain but they always work out right. To get some answer they change into civilian clothes to check where Sophie got her equipment. Megan remains in telepathic communion with them all in case of danger. The interrogation does not go well as Sophie sticks to her story while Beast looks on. The kids arrive at the black market and Rico finds a man who knows the details of Sophie’s transaction but wont spill the beans. He wonders if Megan can pick his brain to which Oli says she’s not up to it. No-Name then talks to the man and is able to get the information and the address they need, Sophie was lying and they now know her base of operations. They get to the warehouse and find robot parts to match those they faced before. At this point Sophie shows a hologram of them to beats and Skanda saying the kids are better than she expected. She transforms into Kalima and unleashes a spell that causes Skanda and bets to battle each other, Megan tries to stop this but is affected by the spell as well. In the warehouse Kalima teleports in and cast the same spell turning the team on each other. Only Oli and Sati are unaffected he reaches for her and absorbs her power, he gets flashes of varying images he can’t understand and transforms his team including Megan into Indians and teleports them in different directions. Kalima is furious and demands to know what has happened. Sati does not know but Kalima says the children and their souls will still be hers and they will all suffer. Sati meanwhile thinks yes they will suffer but they will win!
