Moka placed her hands along the ground and vaulted her self back to her feet. As she brushed off the dust the Ghost Rider stood in front of her.
Moka: That was a cheap shot. I honestly thought you were going for something else.
Ghost Rider: All is fair in love and war.
Moka: And which one is this?
Ghost Rider: I'd say war.
Moka: Well then I guess all bets are off.
With no warning Moka spun at rapid speed and kicked the rider in the side of his ribs. He went tumbling and then crashing into the school gym leaving a ghost rider sized whole in the wall. As the rider stood and brushed off the dust he looked at where he made his grand entrance to see Moka standing in the middle.
Moka: Now we're even.
Ghost Rider: Now we get serious.
The rider summoned his flaming chain and swung it towards Moka, wrapping it around her neck. He yanked her through the hole in the wall pulling her in close but Moka use her speed as a weapon when she drove her feet into the side of the Rider's head. The rider's body was pushed back but overall it didn't budge as he glared at Moka who still had her feet in his face. Then Moka kicked him away twirling in the air to unwrap the chain around her neck and the Rider stood, stunned from the impact. Moka saw an opportunity so she dashed in but then the rider looked into her eyes. In an instant Moka found herself chained up in a world of darkness, unable to move. She struggled trying to break free of the chains but nothing worked. As she looked around in the darkness she saw nothing until she heard footsteps walking toward her, getting closer. When the creature finally came into view it was a little girl with white hair and pale skin like hers. Actually it was hers, this girl was her as a child and she skipped closer to Moka with a smile on her face. Then the child climbed onto Moka using the chains she was wrapped in, she gave her a hug and for what felt like a few minutes they just looked at each other. However soon the child's skin became hotter and was turning red. It wasn't long until she actually started burning from the inside out and as the child screamed in pain and agony she was also laughing. The site was horrifying to Moka but she couldn't look away until the child held Moka's face with her scorching, bone fingers.
Little Moka: WAKE UP!!!!!!
In that instance she snapped back to reality.
Ghost Rider: Hope you had a nice dream.
With little time to react Moka saw the flames that were swelling around the rider's fist. The rider grabbed Moka by her neck and punched her in her stomach and for a second the fire disappeared, but then the hand that was buried in her stomach started to glow and was glowing brightly
Ghost Rider: Boom
The rider's fist erupted into an explosion and Moka was blasted out of the gym and sent crashing through a few walls landing in one of the school's main hallways. She lied on the ground with her eyes clothes but she felt the vibration of a lot of feet moving, probably students that decided to get out of dodge but eventually they stopped. Moka opened her eyes but they were a little blurry but even with her vision a bit impaired she could tell the rider was standing over her except he was completely silent. Moka wondered why he didn't make a single move as her vision began to repair itself and when she came to she realized that it wasn't actually the rider but it was a suicide bomb. She managed to kick it and roll away before it detonated and she let out a sigh of relief knowing it didn't hit her. Then she turned around to find another bomb right behind her.
Moka: Shit!!
She back flipped away right before it exploded but landed in front of another.
Moka: Fuck!!!
She jumped high into the air to avoid the blast and landed when the dust cleared but then she was surrounded by suicide bombs.
Moka: SHIT FUCK!!!
She heard the rider roar outside and the bombs were set off. The only thing Moka could do was cross her arms in front of her face and endure all the damage but it wasn't easy. The explosion had her bruised and parts of her clothes were scorched but she was still standing. As she dropped her arms she saw ,for real this time, the rider standing in front of her.
Moka: Congratulations, you pissed me off!!
While she was damaged, clearly it didn't slow her down as her body was surrounding in a wavering, crimson aura. The rider looked at her and prepared for what was coming as his body began to burn brighter and more flames swirled around him. Now the only question was what was Moka going to do. Before the rider even had a chance to think she vanished and in less than a second later the rider sensed her behind him. He put up his arms to block her kick to the side of his head but it still pushed him to the side. The speed was too much for the rider to read and when he regained his footing he looked around and saw that she was gone again. At least until he felt a fist planted into his gut making him bend over in pain but he had no time to recover and Moka immediately kicked him from the bottom of his chin. As quickly as his body shot up, it came down even faster as Moka met the rider in mid air and with a rapid spin planted her heel into the rider's skull and sent him crashing into the ground. The force was so strong that the section of the school actually fell on top of them and the rider was buried under the rubble. Moka managed to avoid getting covered and stood over the rider.
Moka: So is this all that the mighty Ghost rider can do?
Moka was reveling in what looked like her victory but then why was the rider laughing. Moka could see the cracks in his skull. He had no reason to find this amusing but then a wall of fire appeared beside Moka. It looked like a portal and Moka wondered what horrors rested within it. Then she heard a noise that sounded familiar, like an engine. The rider's bike shot out of the portal and rammed Moka running her over. The tires of the bike burned as she moved. As she tried to get up she saw the bike make a U-turn and come back towards her again but she was able to roll to the right o dodge it. The bike whipped around one more time and stopped in front of the rider who was still buried but he simply through the rocks off and climbed on top of his bike.
Ghost Rider: You haven't seen nothing yet.
The rider revved his bike and as Moka managed to stand on two feet he put the pedal to the metal and drove straight toward Moka who jumped over the rider. However the rider's plan wasn't to hit Moka, as she jumped the rider pulled out his chain and swung it at Moka wrapping it around her leg. She avoided getting hit by the bike but she was pulled down to the ground with a crash and was pulled around like a rag doll. The rider decided to get a little innovative and rode toward the woods outside the school and when he got there when whipped the tail of the bike and Moka went crashing through at least seven trees. The rider stopped and let Moka slam into the ground, pulling his chain back.
Ghost rider: Did that hurt?
Even through all that punishment Moka stood up with a couple of cuts that she was bleeding from.
Moka: Was it supposed to?
Ghost Rider: Maybe.
They glared at esch other for a few seconds and then the rider stepped off his bike. He started to walk towards Moka wrapping his chains around his fist, Moka did the same with a crimson aura surround her legs. It wasn't long before they were right in front of each other staring face to face. The rider summoned a massive amount of fire to surround him and Moka's crimson aura began to glow extremely bright. Then they both took a step back, the rider pulling back his right arm channeling all his power into it and Moka doing the same with her left leg. As soon as they were ready they attacked with everything they had letting they're hits collide and the force of the energy sent a shockwave throughout the area. They continued to contest each other, trying to push each other back but neither of them giving an inch until they put so much power into it that both of them were knocked back and sent tumbling along the ground. They immediately picked themselves up ready to keep this fight going until only one was standing.
Ghost Rider: You can have the first move this time.
Moka: Gladly.
Once again she vanished like the wind. The rider expected her to come from behind again but Moka went with a frontal assault and kicked the rider in his chin sending him into the sky. She didn't stop and jumped after him kicking him again making him go higher and higher into the air but as she went for her final kick the rider caught her leg, pulled her face close to his and he breathed a stream of fire into her face. While Moka covered her face trying to endure the pain the rider wrapped his chain around Moka's waist and threw her toward the ground. But he didn't let her hit the floor, when she got far enough away he yanked her back up and punched her down. He pulled her back up again and he kicked her down and for a third time he pulled her back up and drove his flaming skull into hers letting her plummet. She crashed through the roof of the school's main building and made a hole in the floor on impact. The rider saw that it was his time to strike a finishing blow so he dived down. As he fell he channeled a massive amount of fire into his hand again, wrapping his chain around it. As Moka stood up she looked and saw what looked like a falling sun that was coming towards her and she knew it was gonna hurt if she didn't do something. So she charged her hee own attack putting everything she had in her legs making them glow a vibrant crimson. The rider was coming down fast and they both could look each other in the eye and agreed it was time to end this. The rider threw his fire punch and Moka delivered her crimson kick and they collided once again with enough force the blast the building apart. Again they contested each other with all they're might but they saw at this rate it would be another draw so they put even more power into their attacks and it was so much that the ground beneath them began to crack under the pressure but then something happened. Both Moka and the Ghost rider heard cracks. The rider's arm was broken, Moka's leg was broken and with only one leg to stand on she fell before the weight of the blast. The rider landed next to her and fell to his knees unable to stand any longer. He soon shifted his form back to Rane and clutched his arm.
Rane and Moka: OOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW!!!!
Once they got over their pain they both laughed hysterically at each other.
Moka: You win.
Rane: How?
Moka: You can still fight with one arm but I can't do that much on one leg. So you win.
Rane: The last thing I expected was for you to say something like that.
Moka: Whatever, sorry about making you feel weak.
Rane: I'm sorry I attacked you....twice.
Moka: Yeah can you help me to the infirmary?
Rane: You think it's still standing? We pretty much recked the school.
Moka: My dad will pay for it. Just help me up.
So Moka wrapped her arms around Rane's shoulders and with his good arm, he lifted Moka up on her good leg and helped her limp to the infirmary. As they arrived they walked in to see if the doctor would take them but it seems like they were preoccupied with students that were hit with mysterious pieces of rubble. Rane and Moka didn't want to give away it was them fighting so they just sat outside and waited.
Rane: How's your leg feel?
Moka: Like shit. What about your arm
Rane: Shit too.
Moka: This thing would heal quicker if I had some blood.
Rane let out a sigh knowing he wasn't about to like what he was going to do but he unbuttoned his shirt and pulled his collar down leaving his neck completely open.
Rane: Take mine if you want.
Moka: What happened to you not being a blood bank.
Rane: I never repaid you for saving me so the least I can do is fix your leg.
Moka: I don't think that counts when you're the one that broke it.
Moka slid closer to him putting her hands on his neck ready to bite.
Rane: You're right, I got a better idea.
Rane took hold of Moka's hand with his good one, he turned to Moka and he kissed her. Moka was completely red and absolutely stunned but eventually he wrapped her arms around him and closed her eyes, allowing herself to enjoy the touch of his lips until he stopped.
Moka: Now I never want to put that Rosary on again.
Rane: Yeah I was thinking about that.
Moka: Thinking about what?
Rane: What if there was a way to separate you two?
Moka: Separate us, like separate bodies?
Rane: Yeah, I have feelings for you but the other Moka was my first friend here. I'd hate to lose her too.
Moka: So you want to try and split us up.
Rane: I'm officially dedicating myself to finding a way.
Moka: Ok, I guess I'll just let that other me take the lead until you find an answer. Now about that blood.
With no warning Moka grabbed Rane's neck again and buried her fangs into it with no mercy causing Rane to scream in pain.
