Audrey smiled as she sat there. She looked out the window and watched the moon travel across the sky. That left her with a lot of time to herself. She had felt like someone was watching her, but that feeling had long disappeared.

She sat there and remembered the bargain. She knew that she would not succeed. Deep down she knew that. She looked at her wedding ring. The silver band was on her finger for all eternity. She wished her husband would let her see her family.

She looked at the window. The sun was about to rise. The sky had a pink tinge to it. She sighed. Only a little longer until the Rider came home. So she waited until she sensed the Rider coming to the door. She sat up and looked at the door as it unlocked.

"Hey Johnny," she said as the Rider stepped into his apartment. The Rider looked dumbstruck. Apparently he hadn't sensed her as he came up. Audrey stood up and walked to his small table and sat down. She smiled and said, "Lovely place you got here."

Johnny sat down across from her and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"I told you I would see you again," she said. "And I'm a little pressed for time."

"What do you want from me?" Johnny asked, the Rider was fighting to get through to attack the demon in front of him.

"Well, I would like the power of the Rider so I could give it to Mephistopheles, so my bargain would be complete."

"I'm not giving you the power of the Rider." Anger seeped into his speech as he began to lose control of the Rider.

"Be careful Rider, you remember what happened in the alley."

"What did you do to me back there?" Johnny asked trying to get control of the Rider.

"I might tell you if you give me the power."

The Ghost Rider burst through Johnny then. The Rider grabbed Audrey's throat and lifted her into the air. Audrey stopped breathing and looked at the Rider. "What are you gonna do now Johnny? Use the big bad Penance stare?"

The Rider was going to do that exactly. "Your blood is stained by the blood of the innocent," the Rider began but Audrey interrupted. "Be careful what you say Rider."

"Feel their pain." But what happened Johnny was not expecting. He didn't see crimes or even evil in her, instead he saw memories. A tree much like his and Roxie's, except this one was in the middle of the woods. Audrey leaning against it. Blackheart suddenly popping up behind her.

The Rider watched different memories fly by. Too jumbled to make any sense of them. Blackheart holding her hand. Then memories of Hell. A white dress. A book. Then his whole body started to burn. He let go of her and the memories stopped.

Audrey landed neatly on her feet, while the now Rider-free Johnny fell to the ground. Johnny sat up and leaned against the wall. "Okay," he said, rubbing his stinging arm. "What the heck just happened?" he asked Audrey as she sat on the floor across from him.

"Well, since you're not going to give me the power; will you help me?" Audrey asked. Johnny looked at her and said, "What?" Audrey looked at him and smiled. "I will tell you if you help me. Plus once I go back to Hell I don't think I will come back. I'm not evil if you haven't noticed. Please, please help me."

Johnny looked at her and said, "It depends on what you want, and you have to tell me first." Johnny felt like a kid agreeing to trade his juice for milk at lunch. But she was not evil he had seen that. Audrey looked at him waiting for him to say something.

"You want me to ask questions now?" he asked. "Well, yes but I will say something. You know I am not a demon now. I am a human with, I guess you could say demonic powers." Johnny looked at her thinking.

"If you're a human, then why are you in Hell?" he asked. Audrey looked at him and said, "My bonds tie me there," she said as she held up her left hand. Showing him her wedding band. "You're married?" Johnny exclaimed.

Audrey laughed softly, "Well, yes. That's what got me in this predicament in the first place. I guess you thought demons couldn't get married." Johnny nodded then asked, "Who are you married to?" Audrey stopped smiling and said, "You wouldn't want to know that. Because you probably wouldn't be that nice to me after I told you."

Johnny looked at her and said, "Just tell me." Audrey glanced up unsure and muttered, "Blackheart." Johnny looked at her confused and said, "Blackheart's married?" Audrey looked at his face and started laughing.

Johnny looked at her more confused and said, "What?" Audrey stopped laughing. "I thought maybe you would be mad, but then I got the response, 'Blackheart's married?'" She smiled. Johnny smiled and said, "Well, now that you're better: What did you do to me in the alley and just then?"

"I am innocence. My essence is innocence. It hurts demons, and it protects me quite well in Hell. Blackheart is the only demon it doesn't hurt."

"Innocence?"

"Yes, I have never done anything wrong or bad or evil."

"Why did you marry Blackheart?"

"I'll tell you later. Are you going to help me?" Johnny had forgotten about that. He asked, "What do you need help with?"

"I want to see my family. That was the deal with Mephistopheles. If I got the power of the Rider back to him I would get to spend three days on Earth."

Every time Audrey answered Johnny got more confused. "Couldn't you do that instead of coming after me?" Audrey's face turned sad. "No, When I'm with you the demons don't want to come, for fear of a fight. When I'm not with you I could get pulled back by Mephistopheles."

Johnny decided to help this woman. He stood up and held out his hand to help her up. She didn't take it but stood up and smiled. "Thank you Johnny," she said sincerely. Johnny smiled and replied, "Your welcome."

Johnny then asked, "So where does this family of yours live?" Audrey smiled.

Meanwhile: Present- Hell

Mephistopheles sat at his desk. The gigantic desk took up a section of the empty room. Mephistopheles stood and walked across the floor to the door. He could hear his son's thoughts. When will she return? Will she try until the last minute when I go up?

His son's thoughts were centered on his wife. Mephistopheles smiled. When his son learned to stop being so stubborn he would gain his wife back. He disappeared in black smoke only to reappear beside Blackheart. Whose favorite haunt recently was the library.

Blackheart looked up in surprise. When he saw that it was his father he laid his head back down on the desk. Mephistopheles smiled and said, "Something is bothering you." Blackheart's head was on his arms, his face buried in his duster.

"No duh," was the muffled response that came. Mephistopheles sat down across from him. "You know if you just told her you love her, things may be alright." Blackheart breathed out loudly. Then he leaned his head back against is chair and said, "There's no way she would still love me. I hurt her. I broke my promise, and hate myself for it." As he said the last part he hit the table and left a dent in the soft wood.

Mephistopheles said, "You don't know that." As he stood he saw Blackheart looking at him with a look of confusion on his face. "What do you mean?" Mephistopheles chuckled and disappeared. Blackheart hit his head on the table again.

What am I going to do? He thought to himself. He wished with all his heart he could fix it or take it back or something.
