Feeling as though she cannot fit in to the life of being the side kick of a super-hero, Rikki Barnes has returned home to Philadelphia to seek the guidance of her parents. However she arrives to find their home trashed and Dr. Doom, having traveled from the near future there seeking her out. He claims that SHIELD's files identify her as a chronal anomaly and he has come seeking out what it might mean and if it could be used to stop Galactus from destroying the Earth. Before he can coerce the teenage girl to do his bidding Captain America arrives and stops him. Realizing there is no time to lose, Dr. Doom tells Captain America that right now the Fantastic Four are battling the Heralds of Galactus, and if they do not act quickly they will soon be killed in battle.
