The Eclipse Queen smiled, her voice dripping with confidence.
"You think your minions can defeat me?"

"We'll show you our true power."
Han charged forward, his Shadow Demon sword flashing in the dim light.
Ash followed, his massive Shadow Titan fists swinging with devastating force.
The Eclipse Queen laughed, summoning a swirling vortex of shadows.
"You'll fall before my darkness!"
Xarath leapt into the vortex, his Dream Demon powers blazing.
"I'll dispel your darkness!"

Ash delivered a crushing blow, sending the Eclipse Queen stumbling back.
The Eclipse Queen's expression darkened.
"You...how are you so strong?"

The Eclipse Queen stumbled, her HP dwindling.
"No...this can't be..."
