Description

Pulling upon some fairy tales that originated in New York City, the love between Gambit and Rogue is re-created, though the roles are reversed, with Rogue/Anna as the ghost-communicating thief and Gambit on the side of the law with his partner, Bishop. Mystique takes the form of the voodoo witch that sells Rogue's talent, along with her other daughter, Irene. Coming home after closing, Rogue is surprised to have a customer, Emma Frost asking for her services. It is then that Emma's intent is not to communicate with the dead, but to control them, and she, along with the members of Hellfire will stop at nothing do so.
