At the end of the last issue X-23 had provoked Jubilee into attacking her, by slitting her own throat and awakening Jubilee's vampire instincts. While almost giving in Jubilee, overcame the urge and only licked X-23 blood. Jubilee then confronted Laura as to why she had done this. Dodging the question the two nonchalantly made their way back to Wolverine and Gambit.
In the morning Jubilee insisted on taking X-23 shopping and trying to get her to express her own individuality. While the attempt failed, the two became closer. After the shopping trip, X-23, Jubilee, Gambit and Wolverine sit down to talk about the task at hand. The task would be a arms deal going down that evening. They would be dealing a trigger scent, and although it might not be there is a chance it's X-23's Trigger Scent.
After Jubilee and Laura had become close, X-23 entrusted Jubilee with the task of killing her if her murderous instincts were brought about by the trigger scent.
That evening the four infiltrate the facility where the deal is supposed to take place locating the trigger scent. They soon realize that now the scent no longer just affects certain people, but everyone that it comes in contact with. When X-23 smells the scent she can not control herself despite her desire to resist and Jubilee tries to intervene. Jubilee tries everything in her power not to kill Laura even though she had requested just that. The pair find themselves on a crowded subway platform and in the end Jubilee and X-23 end up directly in the way of a train which may end up killing them both.
