So, you're saying to play keep away from all evil entities and Raiden gets close enough to Onaga to destroy him and the amulet?

Not really. I don't imagine Onaga returning literally seconds after Shinnok's head is tossed at Liu Kang and Kitana; I see it being without the evil that fuels it for at least several years. Raiden discovers this, say, half-way through the story when it lashes out and almost hits one of Raiden's allies or something. Discovering this, Raiden goes into seclusion, only to challenge Onaga and fight him, giving Raiden enough time to make the amulet go boom.
