Jason was standing at the edge of the arena, saw the both of his opponents facing off against each other, and grew really nervous.
"Dang it!! I need to find a way to power up before they come for me, and I only have five minutes to do so!!," he thought to himself, desperately thinking of a method to solve his dilemma.
He then had an idea but grunted, saying, "I guess I have no other choice but to ask 'him' instead. Good thing Sensei taught me a way to find a way to reach him."
Jason then sat down in a meditating pose, breathed slowly and closed his eyes.
————————-/——//————————————
He slowly opened his eyes back, and all he saw was a black mass appearing like an ocean surrounding him.
"This must be 'his' own subconscious domain because my mind isn't supposed to be like this," he concluded to himself.
"Damn right you are, you brat!!," a voice echoed the entire environment and Jason ran towards the origin of the voice.
He ran until he saw a bright light and as he approached, he felt a strong force holding him back and overpowering him.
"Ah!! I see you've encountered my Omni Force!! How delightful!!," the voice said, followed by a loud laughter echoing the entire area.
"Dammit!! What kind of presence is this!!," he thought to himself until he looked up and saw the origin of this force.
"How did you get here and what do you want?!," Trihexa questioned him from his black throne arrayed in skeletal parts and manifested his true form, as he did within Viola's mind.
"I'm here to collect Mana from you!! Think of it as rent for using my body all this time!!," Jason replied amidst the crushing weight of Trihexa's force surrounding him.
He continued, "It seems you don't know who you're talking to!! I'm the Great Trihexa, the Warrior of Destruction and Slayer of the Bane Realm!! You are to kneel before me!! I owe nobody anything!!"
The force indeed was too strong for Jason to handle as he collapsed face-first to the ground, with Trihexa watching on.
"No mortal is supposed to feel much less survive my Omni Force. That girl from earlier is also a huge issue as well," he said to himself as he watched Jason on the ground.
Suddenly, Jason started rising up and moving towards Trihexa, saying, "And you don't know who you're dealing with!! I said I'm not leaving without taking Mana from you and I mean it!!"
Trihexa -surprised and slightly fascinated about Jason's turnaround- then sighed and said, "Let's have a little wager on this!!"
"I will grant you a bit of my powers for thirty minutes, but on one condition: If you cannot survive without dying or getting fatally injured, I will take over your body!!"
Jason gulped anxiously but then agreed and replied, "Deal!! But if I win, you leave my body and never return again!!"
"Yeah yeah yeah, whatever kid!!," Trihexa brushed Jason away with his right hand, before he spun his index finger at Jason.
"I've given you a simple spell to enhance your speed, stamina, strength and durability. That's all you get!! Now go before I change my mind!!," he said before Jason left his domain.
"That brat!! He might be a special one!! Let's see how well he is to be called my vessel!!," he thought with his head resting on his left hand and legs crossed.

Meanwhile, outside of Jason's subconsciousness, Damian and Vincent were having an intense battle, which each individual matching and countering the other's moves.
However, when Damian saw Jason still stuck in his pose, he grew annoyed and used his Pyro Armor to make Vincent move away from him.
He achieved that by circling himself with a huge flame barrier around him, making it impossible for anyone to come near him.
Amidst the flames, he was thinking of a new strategy to put things into his advantage.
He smirked and then, the flames immediately stopped enlarging, but rather shrunk to a huge flame figure on his left hand.
Then, he laughed hysterically and yelled, "It seems the five minutes are up!! Time to wake him up!!," and suddenly, black markings with broken lines appeared from his
left eye all the way down to his left leg.
Vincent, knowing what was next, released his aura to his maximum capacity and rushed to stop Damian from attacking Jason.
But Damian proved to be too strong for Vincent; as he Samoan-kicked Vincent right in the gut and then rushed for Jason's body.
As he prepared to strike with and evil grin on his face, Jason immediately countered and kicked Damian at the side of his face, pushing him.
Then, dark markings -similar to Damian's but much lighter- also appeared around his right hand, with his fingernails and canines elongated.
...…••••••••••••••••••••••....
He also had his eyes colored yellow and his pupils slit like a snake's.
His aura was dark and had a nasty feeling to it.
...…••••••••••••••••••••••....
He then laughed hysterically with his head hung low and he said in a chilling voice, "Well then, time to have some fun!!"
