  • A Kree scout ship reports Skrull activity on the planet Aphos Prime, but is destroyed, leaving no survivors. The higher-ups in the Kree Empire get concerned, realizing it is likely connected to Peer Kaal testing the Axiom Cannon. Not wanting to risk the entire Starforce, they decide on a two-person scouting mission.[70][71]
  • Yon-Rogg meets with Vers and Minn-Erva to start a briefing about a mission to Aphos Prime, telling them it is a routine reconnaissance mission. He tells them about the scout ship, and Vers starts asking questions less than a minute into the meeting. Yon-Rogg tasks them with finding out the strength of the Skrull force on the planet and reporting back without engaging. Vers suggests that the Skrulls would start fighting them and asks why warriors from Starforce would be sent on a reconnaissance mission, leading to an argument when Minn-Erva scolds Vers for questioning orders. Yon-Rogg interrupts the argument by saying that the orders came from the Supreme Intelligence, so Vers says she understands.[70][71]
  • After the briefing, Vers reflects on her struggle to befriend Minn-Erva when she is approached by Yon-Rogg, who tells her that they need to follow the Supreme Intelligence's orders without question. Yon-Rogg tells Vers that their mission is more important than she knows, so Vers suggests that they should simply stop the Skrulls' plan. Yon-Rogg assures Vers that it will happen soon and tells her to consider the mission a test, leading Vers to deduce that he was testing her and Minn-Erva. Yon-Rogg refuses to confirm her suspicion.[70][71]
  • A Kree fighter is prepared for Vers and Minn-Erva, removing the external weapons so that an engine can be added, allowing fast enough travel to avoid the Skrulls.[70][71]
  • Minn-Erva and Vers approach Aphos Prime, avoiding detection due to their fighter's speed. They speed into the planet's atmosphere, causing the fighter to bounce. Minn-Erva asked is Vers is confident in her ability, to which Vers responds that she can fly anything. Gases from under the ship dissipate as Vers prepares to crash, much to Minn-Erva's dismay. The ship crashes, and Minn-Erva sarcastically comments about them being alive.[70][71]
  • Minn-Erva opens the hatch without ensuring it is safe, frustrating Vers. They exit the ship and realize that the planet is covered in mud, resulting in them becoming drenched in it. Minn-Erva tells Vers that there is no chacne the Skrulls detected them, which Vers claims was nearly a thank-you, although Minn-Erva denies it. Minn-Erva tries to use a Skrull Detector but finds that the tracker was not showing any Skrulls present. They disagree on whether they could have been detected, when the tracker shows multiple targets again before turning. Vers suggests that the planet is interfering with the tracker and cloaks their ship before they start going toward the Skrulls.[70][71]
  • Minn-Erva checks the Skrull Detector again, but finds no new signal. Vers points out that they will need visual confirmation, which will likely lead to a fight, but Minn-Erva suggests that she simply wants a fight and reminds her of their orders not to engage. Vers asks why Minn-Erva does not like her, prompting Minn-Erva to call her childish before explaining that she views Vers as reckless and dangerous. She tells Vers to follow her lead, upsetting Vers. They continue walking in silence.[70][71]
  • An hour later, Vers wonders why the Skrulls would be interested in the barren planet. The Skrull Detector came to life and found three Skrulls nearby. Minn-Erva nad Vers kneel, and Minn-Erva hesitantly agrees that they need visual confirmation and to enter combat.[70][71]
  • Vers reaches the top of the mountain and sees three Skrulls, but gets seen by them as well as the Skrulls fire at her. Vers returns to the bottom and convinces Minn-Erva to let her scare them off. Vers uses her photon abilities to fly to the top and blast the Skrulls. One tries to recover, but she hits it again. Vers returns to Minn-Erva and assures her that they will think twice before attacking, but they are then approached by a hovercraft.[70][71]
  • Vers and Minn-Erva crawl through the mud and argue about who is responsible for their situation. The shooting increases as Vers looks over a wall, seeing eight Skrulls firing and one keeping watch. A Skrull nearly hits Vers, but she returns to Minn-Erva in time and tells her the number of Skrulls. The two agree that more would be coming and hesitate to acknowledge their agreement. They plan for Vers to take down the hovercraft while Minn-Erva handles the eight Skrulls.[70][71]
  • Vers goes back to the top of the hill and sees the pilot of the hovercraft tell the Skrulls to attack. She vaporizes the ship while Minn-Erva lays suppressive fire. With the hovercraft destroyed, Vers takes her sidearm and joins Minn-Erva in firing. Minn-Erva comments on Vers not using her powers, and Vers offers to keep the Skrulls pinned while Minn-Erva ambushes them. Minn-Erva says that she is a better shot, and the two start hearing a strange sound and notice the mud bubbling around them. A Skrull floats out of the mud, and the two believe him to be dead before he starts clawing at Vers, begging for help. Vers jumps back and the Skrull is dragged under the mud. Vers and Minn-Erva hear the Skrulls which were shooting at them getting pulled under as well.[70][71]
  • Vers and Minn-Erva agree to leave, and they slide down the hill. They notice the fround bubbling around then and start moving toward their ship. Vers asks why the Skrulls would want a planet that kills everything that lands on it, so Minn-Erva suggests that they want it as a weapon. The mud bubbles again and starts to foam, prompting Vers to deduce that it is alive. The ground start shifting, which Vers suggests is a defense mechanism. Minn-Erva starts firing at the mud, making the bubbles come faster. Minn-Erva gets pulled under, despite Vers' attempt to help pull her out. Vers realizes that firing at the mud will not help, but realizes that the Skrull surviving being under meant something was likely under the surface, so she lets herself sink on purpose.[70][71]
  • In a cavern under the surface, Vers and Minn-Erva return to consciousness and find Vers' foot to be on Minn-Erva's head. Vers removes it and Minn-Erva uses the targeting laser on her weapon as a light. They taken in their surroundings and wonder how and why they are able to breathe. Vers sees the vines on the wall pulsing and suggests that they are blood vessels, prompting sarcasm from Minn-Erva. Vers says that they will need to work together, but Minn-Erva realizes that they are not alone as a Skrull emerges through the wall.[70][71]
  • Minn-Erva aims her weapon at the Skrull, who begs them to save him. The women hesitantly agree, and Vers and Minn-Erva pull him out while threatening him. Minn-Erva asks why they are there, but the Skrull refuses to speak. Vers points out that the Skrull is dying, and the Skrull calls them weak since he would have killed them if the situation were reversed. Vers recognizes the Skrull as the same one who appeared to them on the surface, guessing that he was trapped as well and offering help escaping, surprising Minn-Erva. However, Vers explained that the Skrulls' ability to navigate the mud would be useful, which Minn-Erva agreed with before threatening him. The Skrull describes the planet as a cancer, explaining that it is the remains of Aphos Prime. This makes Vers realize that she and Minn-Erva were sent because the Kree were unsure of what happened to the planet.[70][71]
  • Vers asks whether the Skrulls were responsible, but the Skrull insists that they know as little as the Kree. The Skrull starts coughing blood, so Vers asks how they can leave. The Skrull explains that the walls are weakest where they bubble, and that they can crawl their way up. Vers tells the Skrull to start despite his injury, so he climbs through and lifts himself into the wall. Minn-Erva says that she will go next and tells Vers to stay in the back and ensure they are not followed by others figuring out how to survive beneath the mud.[70][71]
  • The trio find themselves in a long tube, when the Skrull falls face-first into the mud and says he needs to rest. Minn-Erva rolls him over and tells Vers that he will not survive. Vers, determined to bring him back to Hala for information, looks at the Skrull and realizes that his injury did not come from a blaster, but rather acid burn causing a hole in his stomach. Vers uses the Skrull's tunic to plug the hole and they continue crawling.[70][71]
  • The Skrull, Minn-Erva, and Vers come across a large set of mud that does not leak into the vine through which they are crawling, confusing them. Vers looks up through the transluscent mud and recognizes their ship. She says that if they can climb up, they have a chance of leaving, but the Skrulls explains that it is not possible. Minn-Erva shoots the wall of mud, prompting the planet to angry and attack them with vines as mud oozes through the walls of the tunnel. At Minn-Erva's suggestion, Vers uses her abilities to cause the membrane to erupt, causing mud to flood them. She destroys the vines surrounding Minn-Erva and the Skrull and pulls them to the surface. She struggles to surface herself as vines grab her leg, but Minn-Erva destroys it. Vers blasts the surface, allowing her to escape.[70][71]
  • Minn-Erva shoots at vines while Vers catches her breath inside the ship. Vers prepares the ship for take off and warns Minn-Erva to get inside, which Minn-Erva listens to. They take off as the planet screams, and Vers eyes the Skrull. Vers thanks Minn-Erva for saving her, prompting Minn-Erva to return the thank you. Vers laughs, commenting that she was right about Minn-Erva thanking her before their mission was over.[70][71]
  • Vers and Minn-Erva return to Hala with the Skrull, where she asks what will happen to him. Yon-Rogg explains that the Skrull will be interrogated. Vers, unable to resist, asks whether Yon-Rogg knew about Aphos Prime before the mission, which Yon-Rogg denies. Vers prepares for her briefing with the rest of Starforce while Yon-Rogg secretly notes on his tablet that the test involving Aphos Prime and Peer Kaal is complete.[70][71]

  • Vers goes for a morning run on Hala, when she accidentally hits an old man. The man starts scolding her, but then notices the insignia on her Starforce Uniform and starts apologizing, taking responsibility. Vers insisted that it was her fault, but the man says that he should have paid more attention to his surroundings. He thanks Danvers for his service and leaves. Vers looks back to him before continuing to run.[70][71]
  • Yon-Rogg attends a briefing in which he is told about Starforce's mission and is relieved to find that the meeting was short. However, he struggles with the mission he was assigned, assuring himself that Starforce is ready.[70][71]
  • Yon-Rogg meets Vers outside his apartment, and the two jog to the gym together while Vers tells him about the old man, prompting him to note to himself that she seems unfocused. The two spar, and Vers continues joking with Yon-Rogg. Yon-Rogg defeats Vers and tells her that she needs to take things more seriously. Vers counters that she takes things seriously before throwing a towel in Yon-Rogg's face and kicking him in the neck.[70][71]
  • Minn-Erva fires a weapon at a shooting range, receiving a perfect score which is reported as "maximum fatality." Att-Lass jokes that it could be a band name, prompting Minn-Erva to compare his joking attitude to Vers. Att-Lass says that he has faith in Vers, although Minn-Erva claims that faith is not enough as she shoots perfectly again. Att-Lass compliments her shooting, but get Minn-Erva threatens him to be quiet.[70][71]
  • One hour later, Minn-Erva and Att-Lass check their weapons, when Att-Lass asks why Minn-Erva is hard on Vers. He guesses that it is because Vers is Yon-Rogg's favorite, noting that Minn-Erva used to be before Vers arrived. Minn-Erva explains that she would lay down her life for any member of Starforce, and that she is unsure of whether Vers would do the same. Att-Lass insists that Vers will pull her weight, and Minn-Erva simply replies that she had better before leaving.[70][71]
  • Vers paces in the briefing chamber, worried that something strange is happening. Bron-Char suggests that strange is good, but Vers reminds him of a creature who bit them. Yon-Rogg arrives with Korath, followed by Minn-Erva and Att-Lass. Yon-Rogg explains that the war against the Skrulls is draining resources and that their plan is to end the war against Xandar. He explains that they were ordered to make contact with a Xandarian defector to obtain plans for a Xandarian weapon and ensure that the Kree remain in power after the peace. Yon-Rogg orders the group to prepare, and Korath watches everyone leave before leaving himself.[70][71]
  • Minn-Erva asks if Vers is alright and admits that she is wondering when Vers will slip up. Vers flips Minn-Erva over her shoulder and insists that it will not happen. As Vers leaves, she hears Bron-Char and Att-Lass defend her to Minn-Erva. She walks down the hallway, wondering about Minn-Erva's words and their mission. Att-Lass approaches Vers and tries to comfort her. He explains that Yon-Rogg sees Vers as the most valuable whereas he used to see Minn-Erva the same way, prompting Vers to realize Att-Lass had thought about it a lot. Att-Lass explains it by saying that he cares about his team.[70][71]
  • Vers goes to the hangar and notices that they are not flying in the Helion, prompting Yon-Rogg to explain that they need to be disguised to avoid getting recognized. Vers notices a woman getting into the cockpit, and Minn-Erva explains that she is a pilot who is familiar with the territory. Korath introduces her as Sun-Val and orders Vers to treat her as a member of Starforce. Vers salutes Korath, confusing him.[70][71]
  • As the ship approaches Xandarian space, it is attacked by hostiles which Sun-Val identify as Kree. Vers suggests they fire back to avoid suspicion, which Yon-Rogg agrees with and passes the order to Sun-Val. As Sun-Val fires, a panel explodes, and the group hesitantly decide it was the result of them firing, but then they get hit. The ship gets hit, causing a hole to form in the hull as the base decompresses. Minn-Erva struggles to get out of her harness and watches as Vers manages to get free and activate the shield, preventing air from leaving. They enter Xandarian space and Yon-Rogg compliments Vers, making Minn-Erva wonder if she had misjudged Vers.[70][71]
  • Sun-Val alerts the team that they have entered Sy'gyl's orbit, and Yon-Rogg reminds the team that they will hit the ground running. Vers asks what they will do if they encounter resistance, but Yon-Rogg simply tells them not to, despite Minn-Erva, Att-Lass, and Vers' protests. The group agrees to the order.[70][71]
  • As Sun-Val enters Sy'gyl's upper atmosphere, she comments on the quality of the ship. Yon-Rogg makes fun of Korath having picked it, but Korath gets defensive. Att-Lass and Minn-Erva select guns, but Bron-Char insists that he only needs his fists. Sun-Val tells the rest that they will be alright and greets Vers, telling her not to worry about her and to stay focused. Yon-Rogg calls her over, and she leaves, mistrusting Sun-Val.[70][71]
  • Yon-Rogg and Korath tell Vers that she will be infiltrating the compound alone, confusing him. Vers starts to question the orders, saying that Att-Lass is more suited for a stealth mission, but Korath scolds her for questioning orders. Yon-Rogg tells Korath to check on the weapons, and Vers asks if she is in trouble. Yon-Rogg reveals that the order to have Vers infiltrate the base was from the Supreme Intelligence, telling her that she may manage to succeed.[70][71]
  • Vers joins the rest of Starforce, saying that they were simply reviewing the lay of the land and that Yon-Rogg wants to talk to Minn-Erva next. Minn-Erva does not trust Yon-Rogg going over the mission individually, but Bron-Char and Att-Lass defend him. Minn-Erva met with Yon-Rogg, who tells her to keep potential hostiles away from the rest of the team while they go on their assigned missions. He explains that while the rest of the team clear a path, Vers will infiltrate the base, which Minn-Erva suggests should be done by Att-Lass. Yon-Rogg looked at Minn-Erva, who decided to watch Vers carefully during the mission.[70][71]
  • Starforce's freighter lands, Yon-Rogg looks out the mountain range containing the base Vers is intended to infiltrate, wondering why the Supreme Intelligence wants her to do it. He opens the ships hatch and tells the team that only Minn-Erva should take a weapon. He tells Minn-Erva to only fire if necessary and tells Sun-Val to stay with the ship and take off at the sign of trouble.[70][71]
  • Att-Lass complains about the temperature as gas rises from the planet's surface, and Vers jokes about seeing the world in Starforce. Yon-Rogg instructs the team to stop talking and communicate with handle signals. Bron-Char suddenly spots something and motions to the group to stop, so Yon-Rogg sends Att-Lass to investigate. The group waits until Att-Lass returns, confirming that what Bron-Char saw was a Nova Corps ship.[70][71]
  • The group continues moving forward while Minn-Erva sets herself up as a sniper. Yon-Rogg shows Vers a hologram of the bunker she will be infiltrating, which Vers and Att-Lass agree appears easy. Korath scolds Vers for not taking the mission seriously, but Yon-Rogg cuts him off and tells her to find the scientist Peer Kaal in the bunker. Minn-Erva tells Vers not to mess up using the comm-link, and Vers starts moving as Minn-Erva confirms that there are no enemies near her.[70][71]
  • As Vers gets close to the compound, Minn-Erva gives her the clear to enter. She gets distracted thinking about Sun-Val and something that consistently draws her attention away, but focuses and tell Minn-Erva that she is about to enter the base. Minn-Erva wishes Vers luck, surprising Vers as she enters the base. She reports to Yon-Rogg that Vers is inside, and Yon-Rogg explains that she might not have a signal. Minn-Erva see three Nova Corpsman, so Yon-Rogg leaves with Bron-Char to deal with them, ordering Korath and Att-Lass to stay behind in case others arrive.[70][71]
  • Vers finds the bunker to be empty, attempting to cover the smell. She sees a large rock and attempts to lift it before realizing that it needs to be turned, opening a small hole in the ground, which Vers enters.[70][71]
  • Meanwhile, Sun-Val attempts to repair the damage hull, realizing how bad it is. She notes that the shield circuitry is fried and examines replacement hull plates, replacing the damaged one. She starts welding and hear Minn-Erva tell the others that she cannot see Yon-Rogg or Bron-Char. She listens as Korath responds that he cannot see them either, working on finishing an edge.[70][71]
  • Vers finds herself in a hallway and attempts to communicate with her team, finding that she does not have a signal. She opens the first door, finding the room to be empty. After checking several more rooms, she finds Kaal, who is excited to see her and says that she is the plans.[70][71]
  • After half an our of work, Sun-Val finishes patching the whole on the freighter. She hears a sharp noise in the trees and wonders how the amount of fire on the planet allows for trees to exist. She starts to focus on the patch again, when she hears another snap. She gets her pistol and cautiously approaches the noise, where she is killed by a Skrull.[70][71]
  • Vers asks what Kaal means, so she clarifies that she is the only one who knows what the plans are. She explains that Sy'gyl is the direct result of the planet getting hit with the Axiom Cannon and gives Vers a data capsule containing the plans, refusing to go with the Kree. A Xandarian woman attacks and stabs Vers in the leg, intending to kill Kaal. Vers defends Kaal until an explosion destroys the bunker and Kaal is killed.[70][71]
  • Minn-Erva tries unsuccessfully to communicate with Att-Lass and Korath and checks on the bunker, seeing no activity. She suddenly hears a high-pitched sound and tries to find the source, unsuccessfully. She looks up and recognizes a Stealth Bomb being dropped on the bunker. She warns Korath and Att-Lass and averts her eyes. As she starts to recover, she is joined by Att-Lass and Korath, and the latter orders them to leave the rest of their team behind and return to the freighter.
  • Vers hears broken messages through her comm-link and realizes she is in danger. She struggles to right herself and attempts to assess her surroundings, attempting to determine if her attackers were with the Nova Corps. She slides on the ground and creates a makeshift tourniquet from her uniform.[70][71]
  • Vers feels a sharp pain and gasps as she grabs at her leg. She looks to where her enemies were and finds that they are not there, so she attempts to stand and escape. However, her good leg buckles under her weight. She manages to stand and starts moving, wiping the blood from her leg to prevent herself from leaving a trail. Vers realizes that someone from the Nova Corps is approaching her and braces herself. She manages to grab his throat, and he says she is hurting him. The corpsman offers to help her escape, prompting Vers to release him and introduce himself as Rhomann Dey. Dey explains that he is there to help Starforce steal the plans to the Axiom Cannon, ordered by the parts of his government that both sides having the same technology would lead to peace. Vers acknowledges that betraying his own side is a mission worse than her own.[70][71]
  • Dey asks if Vers can walk, which she insists she can before falling. She refuses Dey's help, but stops once Dey tells her she is entering a minefield. She rejoins Dey and the two start walking in the opposite direction.[70][71]
  • Minn-Erva attempts to contact her missing teammates, but finds that the comm-link is dead. She suggests that Vers was compromised, surprising Att-Lass. Korath orders them to prepare the ship for take-off, although Att-Lass is hesitant. Minn-Erva starts getting the ship ready.[70][71]
  • Dey asks where her extraction point is, noting that they would need to treat her leg before making the trip. Vers skeptically asks if Dey is a doctor, so Dey explains that he is trained in combat medicine and can stop her bleeding. Vers sits down and lets him treat her as she passes out. He stops the bleeding, puts a bandage on the wound, and gives her a pain medicine.[70][71]
  • Fifteen minutes later, Vers wakes up as Dey tells her that he did what he could for her leg. Vers compliments his efforts and smells something, which Dey recognizes as a problem. They see volcanic gas and lava escaping a fissure in the ground and start moving through the forest. As Dey navigates them to a clear of all rocks, Vers asks why he is helping. Dey says that he does not believe in killing, promptnig Vers to realize he has never killed, which Vers says is not a bad thing. They are approached by a Xandarian warrior, who Dey explains is not with the Nova Corps.[70][71]
  • Dey realizes that the Xandarian is playing with them, so Vers decides to play back. She stands up and blasts him with a photon blast, hitting the stump and sending him falling to the ground. Dey shows Vers as the Xandarian reveals himself to be a Skrull. Dey then explains that the Skrulls likely heard about Starforce's attempt to steal the weapon and came to steal it themselves. Vers decides to continue moving.[70][71]
  • Dey questions the presence of vegetation despite the lava as the two reach Starforce's freighter. Dey stops and explains that he does not want to meet the rest of Starforce, and Vers realizes that Dey is hiding something. Dey admits that he knows why they were selected for the mission, explaining that they were the least likely of their respective teams to kill without question. Yon-Rogg, Bron-Char, and "Sun-Val" arrive, and Yon-Rogg dismisses Dey. Vers asks why "Sun-Val" is not at the freighter, and she claims that she was investigating a sound.[70][71]
  • Vers, "Sun-Val," Yon-Rogg, and Bron-Char return to the freighter, when Minn-Erva aims her weapon at "Sun-Val." "Sun-Val" tries to kill Vers while Minn-Erva, Yon-Rogg, and Bron-Char warn her to get down. Vers falls as Minn-Erva kills, "Sun-Val," revealing that she is a Skrull. Minn-Erva and Att-Lass explain that they had found the real Sun-Val's body, and Yon-Rogg realizes that the Skrull wanted the plans for the weapon. Vers confirms that she received the plans.[70][71]
  • As the freighter travels to Hala, Vers struggles to move, so Minn-Erva walks over and tells her not to due to her injuries. Minn-Erva and Vers compliment each other's work during the mission. Minn-Erva walks away and Yon-Rogg approaches Vers, telling her to go to the med-bay once they return to Hala. Vers tells Yon-Rogg that Dey had told her something about why she was chosen, but Yon-Rogg reminds her that Xandarians are not to be trusted. Yon-Rogg asks if what he said even matters before walking away, while Vers thinks to herself that it does.[70][71]
