"Uh! It hurts!" As much as I hated to I forced myself to charge at Sora. I raised Soul Eater to attack him.
"It's not me...I'm not doing this." I wispearred to Sora as I jumped and attacked.

Seifer took Jack's attacks on his sword, deflecting them away to send a minion howling in pain. He traded blows with the Jack, all the while keeping an eye on the situation witht he Scarves. It was an all-out melee; there were always mroe of his people, but some of the deaths did weigh - if only a little - on his twisted conscience. Jack's taunts landed on unhearing ears.
He did, however, catch - if only barely - Riku's soft words to the Ghost Rider.
Feh. You people always say messed-up shit like that! You brought this on yourself, contracting with a Demon!
With that, he sent another slice at the Jack, this time from the side, his movements frenzied and unpredicatable as he launched strikes from all directions, using his paranormal reflexes to leap and dance across the battlefield.

(Darla, cuz u totally thought I let her die all cooped up and bored in Nami's house didn't you? Wrong. This is her street, take your petty fighting else where)
"Alright! Who's damn heads are going on a stick this time," Snarling lowly I use the side of my Ax to barge in on the fight, then I growl out to the general space, "CAN'T A GIRL TAKE A NAP ANYMORE?" Before throwing my weight around, not exactly sure who's side I'm on yet. I can make out the shadow of what seems to be my boyfriend, but I also had heard the taunts of local gang leader Seifer. They better be on the same team cause these goonies are getting on my effing nerves. Someone is going to D-I-E today! And it ain't gonna be no one I care about. My shield bangs against my leg repetitively and I check one last time to see whom is with whom.
(Hope you don't mind, but I think this shall work later into at least my favor *evil laughter as she skips off to post else where*)

Ghost Rider apparently held no sentiment for the situation, his arm shot out and grabbed Riku by the scuff of the shirt. Stopping his jump attack.
"Believe me, you and I will have a talk later about your recent actions."
Without another word he threw Riku off to the wall at the side, he raised his hand and slammed his fist into the concrete. Within seconds the ground shook and the gas mains below began to rupture: but not with fire, hellfire. Creating a death trap for either side if any of them were not careful.

Jack deflected blows lightly as yet another person ran into the fray, Jack payed little mind to the others who were getting involved. After all, the more the merrier, right? The Jack was now humming lightly to himself as he parried away yet another of Seifers blows, this time aimed at his side, and took a step backwards to put some space between the two. Right now, Jack was playing the defensive, holding his ground, letting Seifer push forwards, tire him out, let him make a mistake. Jack rested the tip of his blade against the ground before swinging his free hand outwards towards his opponent.
The red mist surrounding the hand solidified into kinetic energy and flew outwards in the direction of Seifer.

He took the blow, which laid him flat across the ground, since he was watching the Jacks' sword arm instead of his free hand - not a mistake he was going to make again. He leaped to his feet almost immediately, just in time to avoid a spurt of hellfire from the Ghost Rider's attack, and sent a glare in the damn thing's direction. So far, it hadn't seemed to have decide whose side it was on, though it was fighting Riku - a couple Scarves got burned in the assault.
Hey, watch it, Rider! There's such a thing as 'aim', jackass!
Having made his acerbic comment, Seifer once again lifted his sword, keeping his distance from the Jack, ready to take his own turn on the defensive.

Ghost Rider's head slowly turned to Seifer, walking through his own hellfire without burn he moved himself to be in between of the Scarves leader and Jack.
"What makes you think I am on any of your sides?" he said, pulling his chain taunt. "Your gang wars are a plague on this neighborhood and I am the cure."
With that he began spinning the chain above his head, creating a whirlwind of hellfire that threatened to spread out to the two of them.

"Ahhhhhhh!" I shouted as I hit the wall full force and fell to the ground and switched out of Dark Mode.
"Sora...I never wanted you to know...I wanted to free you and protect you..."
Then my world went dark...

"I see..." Jack muttered as the Hellfire got closer towards him, swinging a hand he encased himself in his mist of the Void, shielding himself from the flames. "I must admit, if blowing up gas mains and creating tornadoes of fire is considered a 'cure', well, I'd've taken up medicine centuries ago." Looking to his left, he saw Riku fall and tutted at the boys swift defeat "Hmm... I expected more from him as well..." With another tut, he lightly tapped his blade against the ground. His demon instincnts were screaming at him to transform into his true self and rip the whole city to shreds, but he contained himself and maintained his composure for the tone being.
His Blades has backed safely away from the Hellfire, whining slightly, still assaulting Scarves where they saw fit. Jack's mind was running through his repetoir of spells, searching for one that may be of an use to him. And then, one came to him, tendrils of most reached out and punctured the bodies of two or three of Seifer's dead Scarves, wrenching their souls out of hell, ghostly apparitions of their appearance (Their souls) formed over their corpses. The souls would not suffer on Earth for long, Jack's spell wore off swiftly, still, the psychological effect on Seifer or at least his Scarves should be enough.

The Wolf - Hi FinesseGhost Rider turned to the fallen Riku and looked away, "That was your first mistake. We're not kids anymore, I survived too much to be protected again."He quickly turned to Jack, while the Scarves were definitely part of the problem Jack's Blades were x2 of what the Scarves are. The Blades had to go down first, walking through his own hellfire Ghost Rider met the Blades on the line. He pulled his arm back and then snapped it forward, his hellfire laced chain swinging out to burn any Blades ahead of him.

(OOC: Listen to this while reading for full effect!) Dive To The HeartI felt myself falling into a deep abyss, Sora's words echoing in my head: "We're not kids anymore, I survived too much to be protected again."The words hit me like a stone. It was my cross to bear. I only wanted to help him overcome what had been done even if I had to plunge myself into the deepest pits of Hell and make rather "unsavory" deals with shady people if it helped him. My mind drifted back to when I had to leave Sora, why did they make me leave him to fend for himself?!? The Ghost Rider. His curse. My darkness. My own. Sometimes I wonder if it was our destiny to suffer in life for everyone else... "Riku..." I heard an almost harmonious angelic voice speak to me. "You seek to protect your friends all the while plunging yourself and giving up your own personal happiness to protect others." "Who is that?" I said. "You hold power within you. You have the uncanny ability to wield both Holy as well as Demonic powers. Such power is not given but earned by someone who has steeped themselves in the darkness while remaining pure and wielding the power for good." "Perhaps but what power?" I asked. "You must unlock your inner light then blend it with your already present darkness and a new power shall be born. One unlike any other." "How do I do that?" Now I was getting annoyed. "First my must confront your inner darkness and conquer it for even though you have controlled your darkness the demon that gave it to you still has a hold upon you." "But he's dead! I killed him myself!" "Perhaps, but he lives on in your darkness." "Then take me to him, this time I'll finish it." "Very well, but be warned that if you fail you will become a slave to him forever. Are you sure?" "Very much so." "Then I shall waste no time." A bright light engulfed my being and I stood in what looked like my old house. "Alright demon, let's finish this!" I said as I drew Soul Eater. "Hmhmhmhmhm...In a hurry to become my slave are we? If you can find me you shall have your wish and you'll know how I survived your little act of deceit." I heard a voice echo through my old house... "Now where could he be..." I thought to myself as I began to explore... |

The battles were subsiding, or moving, to another point of the city. Ghost Rider turned to still unconscious Riku and scoffed, now transformed back into Sora Shimomura.
"Idiot." he said, walking to his body. "May as well dump him at his place."
He reached down to roughly grab the unconscious teen, but as he did suddenly the area around he went black and he fell. Scenery recolored his eyes and suddenly he found himself outside of a house.
"What...the...hell." he said, standing up and looking around. "Where am I?"

I had searched the house over since I still remember this place but I couldn't find Ansem anywhere.
"Damn it! Where are you hiding you coward? Afraid to face me in person?"
Ansem's laugh echoed throughout the house.
"Hiding? Not exactly. Just watching the mouse scurry through the maze hoping to find the cheese at the end but since you are so determined to see me how can I say no?"
A dark shadow appeared out of thin air materializing into long bat wings, a dark tan body with firiy red eyes and silver hair.
I drew Soul Eater in response but before I could raise my blade to defend myself Ansem charged at me and with a show of force sent me flying through the walls into the front yard.
Gathering my strength I saw Sora.
"Sora?!? What are you doing here? Are you real?" I rasied my blade in case he was Ansem in disguise or an illusion sent to attack me.

The tranquility of the are was broken by...by Riku actually, Sora turned to him and looked at him. When he questioned his identity Sora replied in a deadpan tone.
"You're a two-faced bastard who went behind my back and dealt with dangerous people."

"It is you." I responded deadpan.
"Look I'd love for us to brawl it out right now but I'm kinda in the middle of something!"
Ansem came in through the hole in the house.
"I see you've brought a friend. No matter I shall crush you and him just as easily!" Ansem said as he summoned a dual-edged Soul Eater and charged.
"That's why." I said.
