The two bullets bounce of Hei Nerr as he absorbed the kinetic energy, he looked at the new comer and sighed.
"Wow...a sword that vibrates, I'll grant you knowledge that you weren't here during my big explanation moment. But you are still an idiot, actually, go ahead strike me with your shaking sword. See how that does for you." he said, pointing the stick at Nero, a little white line -like a laser pointer- showed on Nero's chest and soon a small white ball appeared on the spot her pointed. He pulled the stick like a bat. "Hey batter batter batter...SWING!"
He swung the stick and despite their being a distance between them, Nero flung back as if he was smacked by a huge club.

Nero however slowed in mid air as Roxas steadily increased the air pressure around him to the point where he was barely moving. Giving him the opportunity to get on his feet without slamming what Roxas assumed was his injured arm into the ground. Roxas held two swords in his hands and looked across at Hei Nerr with a snarl, his inner demon straining to be free. But Roxas didn't want risking letting that demon out right now.
Do it... You need me... Oh god... Roxas looked alarmed, wondering what it was. The floor. The dirt. There's sand in it and it's moving on its own. Roxas looked down and also saw it... What could that mean?
Shukaku.
~
Gaara stood with his arms crossed on a berth, overlooking the battle with a snarl smeared across his face. The sand was moving steadily towards Gaara as he prepared to join in the battle. "Which one holds the Jinchuriki?" Gaara asked no-one in particular. As his blood lust rose. It wasn't the man everyone was fighting, and that made him an ally in Gaaras eyes. At least until he had to kill him.

Hei Nerr cracked a grin at the situation, swinging his baton to himself as he prepared to aim and attack again. "This is going to-"
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
The demonic laugh echoed throughout the area, followed with an unnatural roar and a red light from the city. Hei Nerr turned to that spot and smiled, turning to his remaining men.
"He's on his way boys! The main attraction! Get everything ready!" he said as the roar grew louder and louder, "Laaaaadies and Geeeeeentleman! The main show is about to begin, please give it up for the one...the only...."
In a huge explosion of fire someone rode through the air, crashing to the ground: sending fire and debris where he landed. The figure was a biker, riding a motorcycle comprised of black metal and bright red fire. He swung himself off the bike, gripping a huge line of metal chain in his hand. A blackened skull for a face and fire that flowed around it, like a match.
"GHOOOOOOSSSSTTTT RIIIIDDDDDDERRRR!" Hei Nerr finished with flourish.

Gaara glanced across at the Ghost Rider, his expression unchanging as he suddenly disappeared from the berth, only to reappear down on the ground, slightly in front of and to the side of Hei Nerr, enough for him not only to appear in his peripheral vision, but appear with his arms crossed and his back to him, instantly marking him as not being aggressive towards Hei Nerr. The cork of his gourd popped open and landed in his hand almost casually as he placed it within his outfit, looking across at those in front of him, he said nothing. Looking everyone in the eye he ignored those who were fighting the men with guns behind him.
"You." He said raising a finger at Hei Nerr. "One of these people has something I want. I want them."

Hei Nerr was surprised a bit, yet smirked. "Well aren't you a bold one...speak quickly, skull-boy is relentless and right now everyone is his enemy."
He was not wrong, Ghost Rider turned his skull to Hei Nerr, yet he didn't move...he just kind of stood there, slowly shifting his weight from side to side. He was like a bad dream, where the monster does these actions no one can understand but is as scary as hell.

"Simple." Gaara said, refolding his arms, confident that any attacks would merely be blocked by Shukaku. "I'll cut you a deal. I'll help you take down these pitiful fighters, but I get to keep the one who has what I want. I need him." For the first time, he looked across at Hei Nerr, his pale eyes and carved Kanji being visible for the first time. "Besides, I have no issues with helping you kill the others... I need to kill... To feel alive..."
~
Roxas' eyes widened at this new guy, what was that on the side of his head?! He didn't know why, but this guy just seemed to leak off strength to him, but whenever he reached inside of himself to get help from the shadow hiding within, it shied away and pushed him back into the real world. Whoever... No... Whatever this guy was, it was powerful.
"The guy with the red hair..." Roxas growled, standing next to Lea, Nero, Shiki and Kiara all whom he had come with. "He's scary powerful, and I'm not kidding..." But... The Ghost Rider was here, he'd help them right? I mean, all that pacing and looking around was because he hated this guy that much...
Right?

"I do love a good massacre...but you're gonna have to tell me who you want alive, you see I get so into my job I tend to kill everyone around me. So a name to avoid would be better." he looked around at his men and he looked at them." Scuse me for a second, hey boys, you know what to do...WASTE HIM!"
They turned and fired their guns at Ghost Rider, who stood there and simply took the hits. No yells, no roars of pain.

Gaara's eyes scanned the group, not flinching when the guns opened fire and bullets blazed passed him. So, he would need to find out who held the spirit beforehand, would he? Easy enough. Closing his eyes he reached out to Shukaku, the sand demon opened its eyes, happy to do something other than control the sand in the gourd, and started searching for the energy that it was looking for. It found it fairly quickly. Gaara's eyes opened, locked onto Roxas' and he raised a hand, pointing a finger at the blonde.
"That one." He said bluntly, his eyes still looking pretty much dead.
~
They started shooting the Ghost Ride and Roxas' eyes widened, how was he going to survive that onslaught?! Then he felt an energy punctuating him briefly before leaving him, initially he closed his eyes against the pain, but when he opened them, pale green ones stared back at him over the distance "Um guys..." He muttered to his companions "Is that guy... Looking at me..?"

Nero picked himself up off the floor, his eyes glaring around at the different combatants, sword still clutched in his left hand, right hand still in its sling.
"....THat guy is definitely looking at you," he said quietly, the aura of power that pulsed around the cast and sling growing steadily brighter. "And I'm not quite sure I like that look."
He was generally less respectful of challengers, but there was something mildly disturbing about the new addition to the battlefield.

"Ah, blond hair, blue eyes, must be your type." Hei Nerr said, "I can make no promises, I'd get what you need and vamoose before the blood bath expands to every..."
He stopped talking because Ghost Rider now made his move, turning to one of the gunmen who attacked him and Aqua earlier he suddenly moved at an unnatural speed. Appearing in the man's face, who looked straight in Ghost Rider's sockets. As he did he began to scream, cry out in mortal terror, seconds later his eyes caught flame and burned away. The man collapsed to the ground, his eyes covered in an earthy substance.
"...Yeah, you better start moving." Hei Nerr advised, "Cause once he gets you? Ain't no going back, oh yeah, don't look in his eyes. It'll be the last thing you see."
Ghost Rider's head turned to the other gunmen, his chain glowed with Hellfire as he swung it. One swipe sliced a man in half, his body burning to ash as he fell apart. He swung at another and did the same, he was killing them all.

"Don't worry." Gaara said, clearly brushing off Hei Nerr's joke about Roxas as if it were nothing, not provoking any sort of reaction. "I can defend myself." He noticed Nero staring at him and returned the look. Casually, as if taking a stroll down the street, he started walking towards Nero in particular, his eyes not leaving his as he walked. He already knew he'd come up a bit short against the man when it comes to height, but Gaara was not the type to be intimidated by such things.
As he closed the distance to a few feet, he stopped. His eyes still locked on Nero's.
"Why are you looking at me?"
~
Roxas shifted to Nero's side as Gaara approached him, whatever the reason, this guy seemed to have something against Roxas and he wasn't going to let anyone get hurt because of something he did or didn't do. He held his swords in his hands, ready to attack Gaara at a moments notice, he didn't like this guy, not one bit. Now that he was closer he could properly see the Kanji. He recognized it as 'Ai' or 'Love', but it wasn't what it said that alarmed him, it was how it was written..
"Nero... That mark... It's not a tattoo, or a burn... It's been carved..."

The glow and the pulse of his right arm had it its peak, a wild, frantic arhythm that took all he had to suppress. He looked back at the pale redhead, taking note of Roxas' chilled remark, and smirked.
As he wasn't the wisest of men, he also slung his sword over one shoulder, cocked his head, raised an eyebrow, and responded.
"'Cause you look like a freak."
Never let them see how royally freaked out you really are.

"...'cause you look like a freak..."
The sand moved faster than most eyes could follow, it flew out of the Gourd and quickly thrust itself towards Nero's chest, as soon as it had left confinement it had already hardened itself so that the contact would be like getting hit by a very powerful fist.
~
The force of the blow that rocked past him dropped him onto his back, and when he looked up all he could see was a long trail of sand. Wide eyed he looked around for Nero. "Nero!" He called "NERO?!" He looked around, but the sand blocked most of his view in one direction, and he had a feeling that if it had hit him, it wasn't likely to blow him from Roxas' right hand side onto his left.

A red and glowing blue demon's hand burst out of the sand, carrying with it the tattered remains of what looked like a cloth sling. It started to pull its owner out of the pile of sand; a moment later, a sword with an odd hilt followed, and Nero's head after that, coughing sand.
"I'm..." He coughed. "I'm... hack ...alright!"

"Not for long." Gaara said as he raised a hand, before starting to close it "Sand Burial!" he clenched his hand into a fist, the sand around Nero suddenly started to compact and close in on the man. No emotion sat in Gaara's eyes as he made the motions of what was usually an act of murder without so much as batting an eyelid. "I need to kill you..." He said, his eyes still not moving from the position they'd been in since he approached Nero and the other "To feel alive!"
