The Madri are amazed that Bishop has survived the Shadow King and they continue their ritual of purification of him with Apocalypse's blood. Storm stops them and freezes the blood. She hits them with a wind and quickly frees Bishop. Banshee and Quicksilver sneak into the temple and knock out a guard. They then find Jamie Madrox and he has lost his mind. He admits that the Madri are duplicates of him and that they can be stopped if the X-Men kill him.
At the X-Mansion, the other teams of mutants all arrive and Rogue looks for her son. The head into the tunnels and find Gambit and the X-Ternals. They do not have Charles but they do know what happened to him. Rogue knocks Gambit out of the tunnels and says he must tell her what happened to Charles or she will kill him.
Meanwhile, Abyss appears suddenly and attacks Banshee and Quicksilver. He tells them they are going to lose and Banshee attacks by flying into his void and using his sonic scream as loud as he can. Abyss screams and the entire temple begins to collapse. Quicksilver takes Jamie Madrox outside and he finally gives in and dies and the Madri stop fighting suddenly. The team gather outside and head to the X-Mansion.
