All of their eyes widen. The flames got larger and larger until one of the pink sphere from Mystique appeared and vanished. From the flames, Connor came out with his morphed form.
His skin was thick and looked like it was a bright red coat of lava, his horns grew from his temple down to the back of his head, and his weapons were burning with bright and powerful flames.
Connor snapped his fingers and made the pink sphere that was about to consume Midnight disappeared into nothingness. A pale red flame replaced the sphere and it too vanished into thin air.
He then turned to Mystique's direction to find the shock in Mystique's eyes, but Connor failed to find them. This made Connor tilt his head to the side. "Why are you not surprised?"
A maniacal laugh escaped from Mystique's lips as a response. He was clutching his stomach as he watched Connor stood right in front of him, the boy flaming with intensity and exuding a terrifying amount of aura.
