Hi guys. So yeah its me ROTHEM and I'm still alive. So I'm aware I haven't updated anything in a while due to me being occupied with real life problems like college stuff but anyway I'm here now to bring a story idea that's been in the back of my head for a while.Basically this is an AU where Luz is Ghost Rider. That's all I can say for now. On with the chapter! Hope you guys enjoy!
The first thing Camila Noceda felt as she slowly opened her eyes was pain
Her entire body in pain as she laid on the concrete, the smell of smoke and fire wafting over her as she weakly blinked, there was a wet feeling soaking into her clothes and the taste of blood were on her lips as she groaned in pain .
As she did, her mind suddenly flashed back to what happened, they had been driving home when a crowd had formed due to a shoot out between an infamous street gang and the local authorities.
Wanting to avoid it, she took Luz and they got in her car hoping to drive off in the other direction and get to a safe distance, having kept going till they managed to reach the familiar street where their home was
What she had hoped had been a safe detour turned into a horror show as the same criminal group from beforepulled up in front of their car. When Camila honked her horn, trying to get them to move out of his way, she was horrified to witness the gang members holding a molotov cocktail and threatening to throw it at her car.
Before she could even try and to drive away to safety. She saw a nearby police car passing by.
At first Camila felt a modicum of relief, however it quickly turned to terror when the police car simply drove by and ignored them.
Camila tried to drive out of harm's way by putting the car in reverse and used her driving skills to attempt to escape their attackers; however, before long, the criminals caught up with them and fired at their car, causing them both to be hit with bullets and their car to crash.
Then everything had gone black.
She must have passed out, and couldn't tell how long it had been, though there seemed to be no one else around, the criminals seemingly long gone.
That meant Luz and her-
Her eyes widened as much as possible given her injuries, Camila suddenly rolled her head to her left, where Luz had been.
"M-Mija…" she whimpered out.
There were large blocks of concrete scattered in broken pieces, twisting burnt metal littered throughout, and Camila could faintly see a tuft of brown hair poking out of the debris.
"L-Luz!" Camila cried out weakly, desperately trying to move but finding herself unable too.
Glancing down again, she saw that her legs were both pinned under a long strip of metal, concrete still mostly stuck to the end of it and weighing her down.
She could also see the wet sensation she'd felt earlier had been blood, that was now soaking through her shirt.
But it didn't matter, she had to try and move, she had to try and get to her daughter.
Though after a minute of struggling and desperately trying to shift the rubble before falling back on the ground, her head still throbbing and her stomach flaring in pain.
"H-Help! Help somebody please! C-Can anyone hear me! Please!" she cried out as loudly as she could.
Tears were flowing down her cheeks as she looked back over towards where her daughter was, still no response or signs of movement.
Camila clenched her eyes shut, the tears still flowing as she looked back down at her legs, despite a part of her knowing it was futile, she had to keep trying, she had to get up!
However a sudden sound caught her attention just as she was about to make another attempt.
It was the sound of footsteps crunching along gravel, someone was here!
"Hello!"
Trying to peer her head back, at first she couldn't see anything, until a few moments later a figure came into view. When she got a look at them her eyes widened in a mix of shock and horror
The figure who approached, could only be described as a demonic being with a flaming skull for a head as far as Camila could tell. It reminded her of the devil from the stories her parents would tell her when she was a child
The demon was decked out in all black clothing, boots, jeans, a black leather jacket with spiked studs adorning the shoulders, and matching studded knuckled black gloves.
Before Camila could say anything, the demon walked over and grabbed the metal strip covering her legs and wrenched it up off her, moving it to the side with a grunt and letting it drop down, freeing her legs.
Camila tried to move, but groans out, the wound in her stomach flaring up once more as did her legs, she knew one of them was definitely broken and the other may have been sprained or fractured. She was surprised that this demon helped her then she remembered that Luz was also trapped.
"P-Please!" Camila began weakly, reaching up towards the creature. "M-My daughter! She's trapped under the rubble, please help her! She's not moving and I don't know how badly she's hurt!"
Silently turning, the demon walked over towards where Luz was, Camila tried to look around their body as they stood near her.
Similarly as they had done with her, she saw them lift and shift the debris away from Luz, still not giving her a full view, but she could see some of her lower body now.
The sight of the pool of blood made her heart clench up.
"Is she ok! Oh please tell me she's ok!" Camila asked desperately.
"Your daughter is dying" was the quiet reply from the demon.
A cry erupted from Camila throat at the declaration, her hand coming to her mouth as she shook her head frantically.
"No! No! She's not dying, she can't…not my baby...not my…" she began before her words descended into sobs, Camila sobbing into her hands before the man lifted Luz's body up and walking over, placing it a few feet from Camila and looking down at her.
Camila saw that Luz, like herself had been injured in the stomach, hers were more severe though with blood all but soaking through her entire upper and lower torso, her left arm was bent and broken at an unnatural angle and her eyes were shut.
The sight alone was enough to make Camila let out a wail, screaming out in sorrow at the sight of her daughter's condition.
The creature looked over at her with silence , before turning back to Luz. Their gaze looked over the young girl with interest, before they placed a gloved hand on top of her head and thought of something.
After a moment, Camila opened her tear filled eyes to see the creature seemingly deep in thought, after several seconds they turned to her.
"...There is a way I can save your daughter" they said after a moment, making Camila's heart skip a beat.
"W-What!? You can!" Camila exclaimed, tears still falling from her eyes as she looked at the demon.
Then she realized was this...devil trying to make a deal with her?At that moment it didn't matter, if it could do it, if they could save her daughter, Camila would give anything.
"Yes, but there is a price-" they said causing Camila to speak up frantically.
"Whatever it is, I can pay it! I'll give you all the money I have, I'll sell everything I own if I have to! Just please save my baby!" she begged.
"This isn't a monetary price, and not something you can pay. If I do this, it will save your daughter's life, but she won't be the same, there will be consequences and side effects" they began only for her to shake her head.
"I don't care! I don't care if she ends up with a disability or anything like that!" Camila said. If her daughter wound up in a wheelchair after this she wouldn't care, as long as he lived!
"Do it! Whatever you need to do, just please save my daughter!" Camila pleaded once more.
The creature was silent for several seconds, before nodding slowly and turning to Luz.
Leaning down, they placed both hands on the side of Luz's head, they were chanting something as if to concentrate before glancing back at Camila.
"With this deal. I pass on the curse of the rider to this new host" he said ominously.
"C-Curse?" Camila thought before suddenly a bright fiery light appeared, she eyes clenched shut from the brightness.
She tried to look, but the most she could make out was what looked like a fiery ring surrounding both the creature and Luz, their hands were still on Luz's head as they seemed to be saying something she couldn't make out, the fire seemingly growing and growing before it engulfed them both, the heat swelled outwards making her wince as her eyes clenched shut again from the overwhelming light.
Camila let out a weakened groan as her body finally began to succumb to her injuries, the last thing she heard as she lost consciousness were the sound of sirens approaching.
