In a secret underground facility, Henry Peter Gyrich pays a visit to the captive Milo Thurman, who is playing with dominoes and reading Dante. Thurman warns him that all empires eventually fall, but Gyrich orders him to use his powers to discover shifts in paranormal balance, or else be executed. After Gyrich leaves, Thurman is approached by Lady Deathstrike.
In Brazil, a bikini-clad Domino is enjoying some relaxation during Carnival, but is soon attacked in a side alley by the cybernetically enhanced dwarf Pico, whom she quickly subdues. Just then she is approached by an old friend, Puck. He calls her Neena, but she says she goes by Beatrice now. Puck tells her about Milo Thurman being imprisoned, and Domino resolves to break him out, confessing that Thurman is a former lover.
Elsewhere, Gyrich discovers that Thurman is missing from his cell. Later, Domino breaks into the facility to free Thurman, neutralizing several guards and destroying two Mandroids. Once inside, she is shocked to find dead bodies everywhere. Hoping to find Thurman, Domino instead finds him missing and runs into Lady Deathstrike instead, who vows to kill her.
Lady Deathstrike leaps to attack Domino, who blasts her repeatedly with little effect. Domino pulls out two thermite grenades; Deathstrike bats them away, but thanks to Domino’s luck powers, they ricochet right back and explode at Deathstrike’s feet, knocking Domino free from her grip and leaving a crater in the ground. Hoping Thurman is still alive, Domino picks up his abandoned copy of Dante and rushes out of the room.
She flashes back to when she first met him, when she was employed as security in this same facility. Thurman was held there because of his ability to see trends in the past and thus predict future events. He calls her Beatrice, and also Domino, and though she doesn’t like him at first, eventually the two fall in love.
Elsewhere, in a secret Canadian Weapon X facility, Donald Pierce and Skullbuster oversee the effort to turn the kidnapped Milo Thurman into a cyborg.
Domino sets a device to blow up the whole facility where Thurman had been kept, and she regrets not coming back sooner to rescue him. Suddenly Lady Deathstrike attacks her again, having survived the previous explosion in a stripped-down cybernetic form. They battle, with Lady Deathstrike getting the upper hand, and both are seemingly caught in the explosion. In fact, however, to her own surprise, Domino wakes up in the Canadian Weapon X bunker, in the presence of Donald Pierce.
Domino is horrified to see that Pierce is turning Milo Thurman into a cyborg; he says that Domino herself will be next. Once Thurman’s mind has been extracted from its mortal form, Pierce plans to use his predictive powers for his own purposes. Domino tries to fight him but is immediately overpowered. Pierce also recounts how he survived his apparent demise at the hands of Trevor Fitzroy and the Sentinel attack in Uncanny X-Men #281. As Milo wakes up and sees Domino and cries out for her, Pierce orders Lady Deathstrike (now in her regular form again) Skullbuster to take her to the chamber where she will be turned into a cyborg.
Milo reflects on the last time he saw Domino; when the government facility where he was housed was attacked by AIM agents hoping to kidnap him. Domino fought them off but instead of running away as she ordered, he stayed to watch her fight, and (so he believd) watched her die in an explosion.
Domino is put into a chamber where she is suspended above an acid bath, but her harness fortuitously malfunctions, allowing her to free herself. When Deathstrike and Skullbuster rush into the room to find her, she kicks them both into the acid. Arming himself with hi-tech blasters, she finds Pierce and blasts him. With over half his memories already downloaded and wiped from his physical body. Thurman says it’s too late to free him, and Domino reluctantly agrees. She sets another bomb and prepares to destroy the facility, thinking of Thurman and Cable, the two men in her life that she has loved. Pierce recovers and plugs his mind back into the mainframe, allowing him to survive the huge explosion that follows.
Domino travels to Hong Kong and engages in one of her first freelance mercenary jobs in years. She scales the side of a skyscraper and bursts into a penthouse office. Men in dark suits and sunglasses scramble into the room, but Domino wades through them with little effort. She quickly finds the object of her mission objective and darts back out the window.
A week later, she meets with her client, a crippled man named Jonathan Shepherd. Jonathan commends Domino on her ability to smuggle an infectious organism out of Hong Kong, but criticizes her reckless methods. He gives her the agreed upon payment, which consists of nothing more than an airplane ticket and a photograph. Domino believes the picture may be a photograph of her mother.
A few days later, she travels to Atlanta, Georgia where she consults with a master computer hacker. The two meet at Centennial Park in the middle of the city. The hacker has analyzed Domino's photograph, but concludes that her mother doesn't exist. Suddenly, an attack helicopter descends upon them and begins spraying the area with bullets. The hacker falls over dead, and Domino back flips behind a column for better cover. She removes her watch and activates a timer, which she then throws at the helicopter. The device explodes beneath the vehicle completely shredding it. Domino walks away curious how this surprise attack relates to her search for her mother.
Domino goes to the home of the computer hacker she had hired to track down her mother – the same hacker who only days ago lost his life at the hands of an assassin's bullet. Now, Domino scours his room looking for clues leading to the perpetrators of this mystery. She finds a hidden backup CD containing all of the hacker's confiscated computer data.
Suddenly a group of robed men armed with swords known as the Armajesuits burst into the room and attacks her. Domino avoids their blades and back-flips out the window. She has no idea who these strange men are or why they had attacked her to begin with.
Later, she meets up with Jonathan Shepherd at the Georgia Marquee Hotel in downtown Atlanta. Jonathan asks her if she found anything of value from the hacker. She tells him of the information concerning her mother, but neglects to mention the backup disk that she stole from his apartment. Jonathan wants Domino to undertake a mission in Mogadishu, Somalia, but Domino insists on tracking the leads on her mother instead.
After Jonathan leaves the hotel room, Domino begins inspecting the hacker's data disk. She finds information concerning a secret weapons manufacturing operation known as Project Armageddon. She theorizes that her mother is an undercover government agent who is somehow intricately tied to the project. Moments later, Domnino discovers that Jonathan placed miniature spy cameras throughout her room.
Domino visits the grave of her former colleague, Jonathan Shepherd. After placing a flower on his coffin, she receives a call from one of her contacts, an Irish woman named Theresa. Theresa has performed a background check on Jonathan and informs Domino that prior to his fatal encounter with the Armajesuits, he had planned to sell the Project Armageddon information to a foreign power.
Domino decides to pursue Project Armageddon herself, hopefully avenging Jonathan's death, and unveiling the mystery concerning her mother in one fell swoop. With Theresa's aid, she learns that the project is located in a secret military facility in the Florida Everglades.
Meanwhile, the High Lord of the Armajesuits has learned the location of Project Armageddon as well. The High Lord sends a team of assassins to the military compound to steal the weapon.
Domino arrives in the Everglades, but a strike team intercepts her and blows up her boat. They take her body back to the compound, where a mortician named Dr. McKay is instructed to perform an autopsy on her. Domino is not dead however, and escapes from the lab after shooting McKay with a tranquilizer dart.
