So I just witnessed the eclipse and it was my first time seeing one in real life so to celebrate, Here is another bonus chapter like preparation.
"Yes, Mister Fury...I'll be waiting for the plane."
The Figure talking on the phone hung up. It's been years since he was freed by the curse of the devil, And ever since he thought that the demon that was imprisoned in his body was no more. But that evil creature somehow got the spirit back under his eyes. Ever since he was freed, He tried his best to get back on the side of God. To get a second chance for his past sins. He married his sweetheart Roxanne after he got his life back on track, still did some shows, had kids. But that was until the nightmares happened...
Everynight, He had nightmares about the thing he turned into at night, The cult leaders he fought, The witches he battled, The devil worshippers who begged for mercy, They all had one thing in common...They all died. Some by his hand but mostly by their arrogance. He literally went to Hell and back to get where he is now.
After the whole Centurious and the soul crystal mess, He thought that he could just forget about his time as...The Original Ghost Rider. But he would never be free, S.H.I.E.L.D has been on his back only for questions about how to fight the supernatural and promised that he would never go back to the field.
But after getting that phone call...
"12 years old..."
He knew that he was needed. If Mephisto manages to control the boy then there is no stopping a great evil.
"The boy is so young,Scared, Like how I was..."
He started to pack his things, Clothes, wallet, toothbrush. And his old journal where he wrote about his adventures and powers, And how to control them.
"That boy needs me, He doesn't know anything about his powers!"
Before he finished packing, He saw something on his desk chair which he hadn't wore in years...His old biker jacket. Black with a white arch. He puts it on, Memories from a dark past comes pack like a headache. A lot of people claimed him to be a hero. True, He was there to save your typical damsel in distress or stop a mugging. He knows he did good things in his past, But why can't he grasp it?
He grabbed his golden cross necklace from his nightstand. The crucifix, The greatest weakness to any evil, Demons fear it!
He almost said No to the phone call though...Until he heard about who is the new rider. A boy far younger than he was when he cursed.
He walked down the hallway leading to the kitchen, On the walls were pictures of his friends and family. His love Roxanne who he divorced for their safety,His two kids who were now parents, His real parents, And his step-Parents. One lone picture was of a person that made Him get the curse in the first place.
"I won't fail him like I did you,Crash. I promise!"
He walked towards the dining room table where a tape recorder was located, He pressed the Record button.
"Audio Log #1009: I got a call from Director Fury saying that I was needed in Royal Woods, Michigan. They are having a Rider problem and it's my duty to meet this new rider.(Considering that I have alot of experience). My old friend, Hank Pym will be picking me up in a few hours by jet so I am currently packing for my...Let's say "Business Trip". I'll get Miss Blossom to watch my house while I'm gone. I can't believe it, How did Mephisto get Zarathos out of the Soul Crystal? Heh, Obviously Zarathos must be even more ticked off at Mephisto now. For now I'm taking everything with me including my shotgun and old bike(man, It's been years since I rode it, I wonder if I still got it in me?). After this is over, I'm going to make a visit to my ex, children, and grandchildren, They have yet to meet their grandpa! This is Johnny Blaze, Sighning out."
Old man Johnny Blaze knew that he isn't as strong as he used to be, But there is a child who is bonded with a demon and it will only take a slight push to set him off.
Johnny Blaze exited his house and headed for the garage. Inside was most things you would see in a garage. Tools, Trophys,Pictures, a tv, and something under a tarp. Johnny ripped the tarp of and revealed his old motorcycle from his days as a daredevil and Former Ghost Rider.
"I'm coming for you, Mephistopheles! Me and the boy." Said Johnny Blaze
And that is the end of this chapter, I hope you all enjoyed!
Easter Eggs:
If you don't know already, Johnny Blaze was the first Spirit Of Vengeance. The first "Ghost Rider" was Carter Slade who was renamed "Phantom Rider" after Johnny Blaze first appeared.
