Premise
While the Avengers and the New Warriors aid a Skrull army led by Talos in saving Xandar from Ronan the Accuser and his army of brainwashed Outriders, White Swan befriends Theodore Altman, the Skrull/Kree hybrid son of Mar-Vell and Skrull Princess Anelle, while helping him save his girlfriend Belle Kaplan from A.I.M. forces commanded by Alexander Pierce, who is in reality rogue Skrull Kl'rt / Super-Skrull in disguise planning to create an army of brainwashed metahumans to aid him in overthrowing Talos and Queen Veranke.

Plot
It all starts with Gwen Stacy in Central Park admiring a flock of swans swimming in the lake. Just then, she sees a swan mother swimming with her baby, reminding a tearfull Gwen of her own late mother Helen before she is comforted by Aunt May. Just then, the city is invaded again by Ronan the Accuser and his followers Korath the Pursuer and Nebula, who demand answers about the whereabouts of the "hybrid scum".

Gwen puts on her guise of White Swan and battles the villains. She is just then aided by Theodore "Teddy" Altman / Hulkling, a new young hero with the Hulk's powers, and the two defeat Ronan, Korath and Nebula, forcing them to retreat. Later on, Hulkling reveals some of his origins as an alien hybrid of the Kree and Skrull Empire; he is the son of Skrull Princess Anelle with Mar-Vell, whose union with Anelle was a reason why Ronan branded Mar-Vell a traitor to the Kree Empire and condemned him to exile. Later on, Gwen also mmeets with Teddy's girlfriend Belle Kaplan, a young metahuman with Reality-warping abilities which she received from a exposure of an experiment on her by Hydra agents with the Reality Stone. Meanwhile, the Avengers and New Warriors are with Mar-Vell in Tarnax IV, where they had answered Skrull Queen Veranke's request in helping deal away with both Ronan's new army... and the traitor to the Skrull Empire.

By reading Captain Marvel's mind, Gwen overhears the conversation and becomes concerned that the Skrulls are after Hulkling, but Belle compliments that it is actually another Skrull who had gone rogue and turned the Skrull's former homeworld of Skrullos over to the Kree. Through her telepathic link with Hulkling, Anelle likewise overhears her son's conversation with Gwen and Belle and suspects the Skrull traitor is hiding on Earth.
