The Deathsinger stood ready, this battle would determine his future, and he knew that his work was not finished. He knew their strengths and how to avoid them, and he knew their weaknesses and how to exploit them. He knew how to win the battle.

"Your reign of terror ends here Deathsinger!" Zulius yelled, pointing his staff at him while it's at his side.

"I may be outnumbered, but I am not outmatched." Ingressus said, Achillean looked at him in confused anger.

"Have the Prime Songs driven you mad?! Us four combined is stronger than even 2 of you!" Achillean yelled, Ingressus turned around and laughed. His evil laugh was something that would haunt Achillean forever.

"I think it is you... who has been driven insane."  Ingressus said as the whirling dark magic swirled around the obsidian pillars. He turned back to face the Challengers.

"What is this dark magic... a being? Have you called upon the underworld to assist you?" Varek asked, the Challengers began moving themselves into different positions to attack from.

"What I am about to do... you will never know, but I will tell you that I would never unleash one of those beasts into this world, even I am not mad enough!" Ingressus said, staring at Thalleous.

"Do you know what he did, Achillean?" Ingressus asked, pointing his sword at Thalleous.

"Do you know?!" Ingressus yelled, Achillean looked down, he knew.

"You knew... then I will make sure you watch as his death occurs." Ingressus said as his sword engulfed with orange and red flaming hatred. He used the Mobilium Prime song to dash at Thalleous, kicking him down near the edge of the mountain. He jumped up and struck down on Thalleous who was on his knees, trying to get up. Thalleous whipped his blade up and blocked it. Zulius tried to help but Ingressus used his staff to aggroblast Zulius. Zulius dodged it but Ingressus used supproquake to turn the ground into waves, taking the Challengers off their feet.

"Do you even remember them..?" Ingressus asked softly as he slowly pushed Thalleous towards the edge, his sword and staff against his blade pushing him backwards and down.

"It is my curse... I remember all of them." Thalleous said as his feet slipped against the rocks that led to the edge. Achillean got to his feet right as Ingressus said:

"I'll make sure to remember you." Ingressus kicked Thalleous off the mountain, which caused Achillean to stop in his tracks as he was running at Ingressus. The Challengers stared in shock, watching the Sendaris fall off the mountain, a fall that would certainly kill him.

Varek got up and charged at Ingressus, he swung at his neck but Ingressus ducked and dodged it. Varek nearly fell off the edge but maintained balance and clashing swords with Ingressus. He whipped his sword down and kept striking Ingressus' weapons to push him back.

"Don't let him pick us off one by one, fight him together!" Varek yelled whilst pushing Ingressus between Zulius and Achillean. Varek backflipped and aggroquaked, causing Ingressus to fall. Zulius jumped up and struck down onto Ingressus but Ingressus rolled and dodged it. He stuck his sword into the ground and used that hand to grab Zulius' staff.

Zulius had a firm grip, and yanked the staff. This threw Ingressus over to the wall of the mountain, he grunted with the pain of the rock against his back. He reached for his sword as the handle glowed with a green Supporium glow, the sword flew to his hand with supporokinesis. This was just in time for him to block an aggrobeam from Achillean. After a few seconds of dodging the beam, he rolled and the beam cut through the rock of the mountain.

"So you'll kill me, brother?" Ingressus asked, Achillean readied his staff as the beam dissipated.

"My brother is dead, and I will kill the Deathsinger that has slain him." Achillean said as he flipped over to Ingressus, using one end of the staff to block his sword, and pushed the other one towards him, hitting his hip. Ingressus aggroblasted Achillean away.
