Triple Temptation
Blaze’s russet-and-gold aura didn't flicker; it simply dissolved.
POV: Ash Ryder
"BLAZE!"
Ash’s voice was a raw, primal howl that should have shaken the mountains. He watched in frozen, paralyzed horror as his brother’s body began to turn translucent. It started at Blaze’s chest—the point where Rhea’s finger was directed—and spread outward with a silent, terrifying efficiency.
Blaze didn't look like he was in pain. His expression was one of profound, dazed confusion. He looked down at his own hands, which were now shedding tiny, glowing particles of gold. He tried to speak, but his lips were already beginning to fray into dust.
