With a grunt, Jason absorbed his herbs, returning him to full HP- just in time for Asura to come down on him with full strength, causing the rat to get shot out of the slime mage's body.  Activating [b][Bounce I][/b], he threw the full power of Asura's smash right back into his foe, launching the red slime back.  Quickly scampering out of the divot, he caught the three crystals dropped by Danny, instantly absorbing them. [Color=darkred]"Kill the red one."[/color] he coldly commanded the lizards.  With increadible speed Jason scoured the area for a sharp rock, managing to find one within mere moments.  

He immediately went to work- with a squealch and a wet rip the slime mage did something. Before continuing to dart about, avoiding taking hits.  Jason needed to end this.  It was clear that Ardur never intended for  a peaceful solution, but was instead trying to buy time for Mama Slime's surprise attack.  The conniving fuck would have to pay for that later.  However,  with a healer, and two increadibly high-HP mobs against him, he couldn't involve his allies, or they'd die too.  He was going to make his biggest gamble yet, because like hell would he let those two walk away from here victorious.... And if their victory meant killing him, he would simply steal it from their grasp. [Color=darkred]"DANNY, ASTERIA, RETURN TO BASE-- I'LL BE THERE SOON!"[/color] he shouted to his allies, before beginning his final chant, enhancing [b][Spell Chant I][/b] with [b][War Cry I][/b] once more, as he attempted to channel his very HP into the spell, as well as using the source crystal as a focus for his magic, [color=darkred]"I cast this spell, with dying breath.-"[/color] above Jason's two rings of violet; perched almost like a halo took shape.  The runic lettering within scrambled, and flickering [color=darkred]"Giving my life, to escape true death.  I hereby abandon this mortal shell, to keep at bay, the clutches of hell.....  A DECLARATION TO ALL, THIS IS NOT MY END!-"[/color] a bisecting line began to from within the circle, [color=darkred]"THROUGH MIND AND SOUL, I SHALL ASCEND!!!"[/color] a second line, splitting the circle into quadrants took form, [color=darkred]"THE REAPER'S GRASP, IT'S BITTER COLD.-"[/color] the formation grew bright, illuminating the arena around them, [color=darkred]"I FEAR NO MORE! IT HAS NO HOLD!"[/color] for a moment, the light grew blinding, as the projection began to warp, wildly fluctuating into a mesmerizing display reminiscent of an arctic arora.  The pseudopod wielding the sharp rock extend out, before being bent to reach the top corner of the slime mage's body. [color=darkred]"TELEPATHY ASCENSION ART-- WILL BEYOND DEATH!!!"[/color] as he spoke the final line, Jason tore through the front side of his body with the sharp stone.  Any within range of Jason's telepathy would hear the rather loud sound of microphone feedback as the circle shattered into fading sparkles......
