However, when she and her comrades attempted to board Irons' ship, automated defenses blew her comrades away while she herself just barely managed to sneak on-board with her life. On her own now, she soon tracks down Sara Pezzini and Jackie Estacado, but finds herself so powerfully drawn to the Witchblade that she doesn't even attempt to attack.
