7 Cliff.

''What the hell was that?'' Emmett asked.

Carlisle looked serious, ''World is bigger than I anticipated... To think there are beings I have never heard of before.''

''Should we call Edward back?'' Edythe asked.

Carlisle shook his head, ''No... He needs to get his mind straight.''

Jasper looked silently at the corpses of James and Laurent's.

''Jasper, are you alright?'' Edythe tenderly held his hand and asked.

''...'' Jasper was silent; the face of the Ghost Rider kept coming to his mind.

It was like Ghost Rider read through his memories.

If there were more blood of innocent spilled by his hand... He would be in the same state as James and Laurent.

Cullens looked at him in worry.

Alice was still in deep thought; the feeling she got from Ghost Rider was the same as she got from Jack.

''Alice?'' Esme touched her shoulder.

Alice shook her head and entered the building.

Esme followed behind her.

Edythe took Jasper inside the building; he was still silent.

Only Carlisle, Emmett, and Rosalie were left outside.

''Should we inform the dogs?'' Emmett asked.

Carlisle sighed, ''Don't call them that... And I think we should.''

Emmett nodded and went inside the building with Rosalie.

There was still fire flickering in the forest.

But after Ghost Rider left, the fire's intensity decreased significantly.

It was like the fire's master had left, and they had no reason to stay.

Soon the fire completely disappeared.

Only broken trees and two burnt corpses were left.

Carlisle walked towards the corpses and grabbed them; he entered the building while still carrying the corpses and threw them to the basement.

Their night was still young; they had a lot to talk about...

A new threat has appeared, and they don't know is he hostile or friendly.

That threat is called Ghost Rider.

...

*SWISH*

*CRACK*

Victoria was anxiously running in the forest, she has changed directions dozens of times; every time she even feels a slight threat, she will change directions.

Now she can feel only one direction being slightly safe.

But her instincts scream to run faster!

Victoria's body only looked blur after she accelerated.

*VROOM*

She hesitantly turned her head and saw a death reaper coming.

''HAHAHAHA!'' Ghost Rider laughed madly, while his body was in flames and the motorcycle menacingly started approaching Victoria.

Victoria's heart clenched; she knew what this meant.

James... is dead.

She felt the worst pain she had ever felt.

Her pain overcame her instincts, and she finally had time to regret leaving James behind.

But she didn't stop running.

*VROOM!*

The sound of the motorcycle was getting closer and closer.

The trees were set in flames after Ghost Rider drove past them.

The leaves were burnt into crisps instantly.

Victoria could feel intense heat behind her.

Since she became Vampire, she hasn't felt any kind of warmth.

But now she does, but this warmth was like she was about to embrace death.

Ghost Rider was only 100 meters away from her and closing on quickly.

Victoria's shoes ripped apart, they couldn't handle the velocity.

Her running made powerful footprints appear on the ground.

She has never run with such desperation.

RUN! OR YOU WILL DIE!

Victoria's instincts are going overdrive.

Ghost Rider was now only 50 meters away from her.

But the number of trees was decreasing.

And soon, Victoria saw a cliff not far from her!

Below the cliff, dangerous-looking rocks were floating in the sea.

But her instincts scream that it is better choice to blindly jump to the water than face against the flaming monster.

Victoria exited the forest, and she was only about 10 meters away from the cliff.

But Ghost Rider left the forest as well.

He reached towards Victoria with his skeleton hand.

Victoria gritted her teeth and jumped towards the cliff.

''Wretched creature! Do you think you can escape Vengeance? How amusing!'' Ghost Rider's skeleton hand was burning in fire.

The tip of his skeleton finger was already touching the back of Victoria.

But then the cliff was getting closer, Ghost Rider had to brake; otherwise, he would be flying out of the cliff by now.

But because he braked... Victoria managed to flee, she fell down from the cliff.

*SPLASH*

Only a splash was heard; Ghost Rider glanced towards the dark sea but couldn't find the Vampire.

''...You escaped, more than impressive, but live in fear from now on. My hunt has only begun.''

*VROOM!*

Ghost Rider left the cliff with a blazing trail.

Victoria came back to the surface; she hatefully looked towards the cliff, ''Monster... I will get my revenge!''

...

Ghost Rider was driving on the roads, leaving a blazing trail everywhere he went.

But soon, his flames became timid and started slowly disappearing.

''I feel... very mortal.'' Ghost Rider glanced towards the sky and saw the sun reappearing.

''Raaa!'' Ghost Rider let out a cry, and his face started having flesh once again.

He stopped the motorcycle at the side of the road and unmounted it.

The motorcycle started transforming.

The flames were first to disappear.

Then it looked like the menacing skull was sucked inside the motorcycle.

Soon the motorcycle was ordinary.

No more demonic-looking.

Ghost Rider fell down on his knees; his face was already half skull and half flesh.

His skeleton started having flesh, muscles, and organs.

30 seconds later, the skeleton body had disappeared entirely.

Only an athletic-looking male was left.

The athletic-looking male had stunning black hair and black eyes. He had attractive arched eyebrows with a sharp jawline and a perfect dainty nose.

''That was...'' Jack murmured quietly.

''Fucking insane!'' He shouted.

''So it wasn't a dream?!'' Jack thought with a shock.

He remembered the scene of the man turning into flames.

''Vengeance... Flaming skull...'' Jack murmured; he remembered the scene from the bathroom and saw his face turning into a flaming skull, but then it felt like he lost consciousness; he only remembered the bits of his time as Ghost Rider.

''Fucking Ghost Rider... That is insane...'' Jack scratched his head.

''Mephisto...'' Jack murmured, ''Who the fuck is he..?''

He doesn't have any memory of that name.

He barely remembered Ghost Rider; he had seen only movie posters, never watched the movies or anything related with him.

''Ahhh...'' Jack groaned in pain; he touched his torso and saw a fist-sized bruise on it.

He stood up with pain and walked towards his motorcycle.

''I guess I am not that ordinary after all...'' Jack wryly smiled and mounted the motorcycle.

*VROOM!*

The engine revved, and he started driving in a hurry towards the motel.
