In a lonely car garage on Main Street, a man under the alias 'Simon' worked alone. He stood at six foot two, with long gray hair. His eyes were, under this disguise, a freezing blue. The man seemed to be focusing on an older car, but his mind was in other places. Darker places than anyone would expect, all except those who knew the truth. As he leaned into the hood of the car, he thought to himself. I can't wait to get out of this place. How do humans go about like this everyday?

Sora, Riku, and Shizuro worked out a plan, which was the following: Sora would distract the aforementioned demon while Shizuro and Riku get into place. Once he confronts him one of two things could happen: he could try to run, in which Riku or Shizuro would cut him off. Or two, he could try to summon a Crossing.
Which is why in the event of a Crossing, the other two would have drawn symbols in the ground like Sora showed them. Which would prevent the Veil from expanding and sucking in innocents. Sora walked up, his bike in tow.
"Hey, you guys still open?" Sora called out, pointing to the bike. "My baby is desperately in need of repair."

Simon looked out to the guy, nodding and putting on his best fake smile. "Sure, pull her in." He waved him forwards and then placed the tools he had been working with back in the toolbox by his feet. "So what's the problem?"

"It's the funniest thing," Sora said, pulling the bike in. "Driving down the road and all of a sudden there's this huge bang and the motor is starting to smoke."
He pulls the bike in and points to the source of the alleged problem on the bike's motor.

He bent down to look at the motor, "Heh, really?" He looked from the guy back to the bike. "Definitely not in the best shape I'll tell you that." Simon moved to go through his toolbox, "What's your name kid?"

"I got many names." Sora said, "I guess the one I prefer right now is..."
The sound of a handgun clicking was heard as Sora drew his gun.
"Ghost Rider." he paused and gestured. "Not a bad disguise Sin, I nearly missed it."

Sin closed his eyes, a dark smile slipping into place. He laughed and from his crouched position he rose slowly and turned to Sora. "My, my, what a surprise," he spoke without a hint of shock. He opened his eyes and revealed their now gold color with the pupils as slits. "Now what do I owe this meeting to?"

"Not even gonna ask how I caught you?" he said, before shrugging. "Eh, I don't care myself anyway. You see, I have a very troubling story...I heard that you are trying to enslave an Otherborn. Not only is that very illegal...but stupid. Either you are stupid, have a surefire way of getting around the divine law...or you have something planned."

Shizuo was crouched down not too far from where Sora and Sin were speaking, behind a large dumpster. He was prepared to quickly scratch the symbol he had been shown into the ground to prevent innocents being sucked into the fight. At the ment however while he was waiting he was taking deep breaths and trying to keep himself calm, this would be the worst time for him to lose it and throw a dumpster at someone. "Man..." he thought to himself "I hate violence..."

Riku quickly copyed Shizuo's drawings as he was determined to not only make sure innocent bystanders didn't get sucked in but prove to Sora that he could still be trusted as having become an Otherborn seems to make people suspicious around you. Before long, he and Shizuo had etching the symbols into the ground. As Riku waited for the signal to jump in he asked Shizuo, "Be honest with me, how long has he been doing this and why do I feel so much darkness coming from him?"

So she's finally made a move. "Looks like you've met my niece. Tell me, how's she doing? Is she still as weak as before?" He looked at Sora, "After all this time, you're only the second person she's told. But why you...that I don't understand. Maybe she thinks you can protect her; that this time the Network is of no use to her? Now she might just be using you for protection." He laughed, "To answer your question, you could say enslavement. But I do have other plans as well."

Shizuo looked across at Riku and simply shrugged at the young Otherborn "I have no idea..." he muttered as he kept his ears perked for any sign of escape or attempts to starts a crossing "As for why... It isn't my place to say to be honest, if Sora is keeping a secret from you then he probably has his own reasons for doing as such, he'll tell you when he's ready" he peeped around the corner, facing the flank of the demon near it's only escape option.
"But if this doesn't go well..." he thought "He may find out sooner than possible..."

"What can I say?" Sora shrugged, "my movie star looks swooned her, but enough about me. Lets talk about your future, it could be a long one...or it could be a short one. Your future interactions with Shiki determine this, of course if I know demons and I do you're not going to listen anyway so..."
He pulled back the handle of the gun and prepared to fire at him.

"You might want to think about what you're doing." Sin said calmly without a reaction to the Ghost Rider. He turned his back to him, not afraid of being hit. "I'm surprised with you, Ghost Rider. Just deciding to take me out without a second thought? I am very surprised that you're demanding only my life. Is that all you really want? Or let me put it differently. Is it all that Shiki wants?"

"Shiki's a nice girl." he said, "A bit too nice...she thinks she can save me, to which the truth is harsh: no one can save me."
A brief pause, "And demons cannot be reasoned nor trusted, keeping you away from her is on my list."
His fingers were seconds from pulling the trigger...when he felt the shift in environment as a Crossing began, shifting the garage into a demonic butchery. Eyes glaring at them, tables with mouths, the works.
"Oh great."
