Encounter with the Devil?!

The girls had several expressions on their faces. Some with fear, others with awe and disbelief. Rainbow was the first to get over the sudden revelation. "Hold on, how do you know that the Ghost Rider is here in Canterlot?" Twilight looked right at her, and replied "Because my brother is a police officer, and he told me. That murder that happened last night? That was the Rider's work."

Rarity hugged Twilight to help comfort her, and Applejack asked "And how exactly does your brother know it was the Rider?" Twilight sighed and leaned back against the locker that was directly behind her. "I suppose I should tell you. I know, and so does my brother because my family went to Los Angeles for my brothers wedding with Cadence. It happened late at night, as I was with my mom and Cadence as we traveled through the shopping districts of LA, looking for a place for Cadence to decide on what kind of dress she wanted to wear, along for her bridesmaids."

~~Flashback~~

Nearing midnight in the city of Angels, and it seemed that it was just as busy and never seemed to stop, just like the Big Apple, New York City. The City That Never Sleeps. My mother, Cadence were walking along the sidewalks looking at the different stores, mainly looking for a dress shop for the dresses that Cadence's bridesmaids would be wearing. My father was out taking my brother looking for a style of Tuxedos to wear for his and Cadence's special day.

Right now, I was with my mom and Cadence as we walked through a shopping district. And for some odd reason, all of the shops were closing pretty early. I wasn't the only one who noticed, as my mom was questioning to herself why this was happening. Finally though, we found a dress shop that reminded me of the Carousel Boutique in Canterlot The three of us went inside. The lady was of Hispanic heritage, with a tan on her skin, along with her brown eyes and black hair. She had a dress with a floral design on it, and she had on a pair of gray high heels.

"Hi, and welcome to the Flora Oni Boutique. Is there a design that you're looking for, or are you wanting something custom?" Cadence smiled and walked over to the woman, and started chatting with her. I paid no attention as tow hat was being said between the two. I looked out the window of the Boutique, and noticed a group of five men with grey hoodies over there head, as they reached for something in their pants and made their way to the entrance.

"Uh, mom?" I got her attention, and she looked to where I was pointing, and the next this I know that happened was a gunshot being fired in the air, and the five men entered the place with their guns pointed at all four of us. "Okay, who runs this place? Answer me now before people start getting hurt!" The man with the gun pointed at me said, and the lady in the floral dress answered shakily. "T-That would be me."

One of the thugs grabbed a bag, and walked over to the woman and pointed the gun at her head. "Head to the register, and put everything in the bag. Now!" The woman was crying, and it was easily seeable as she had tears running down her cheeks, doing as they said while begging for them to not kill her.

I was still in shock, when one of the thugs looked outside and noticed all of the lights in the area had turned off, and he rushed back inside, speaking with panic in his voice. "We need to finish this right now man! Take whatever she has in the bag and let's go!

Mom, Cadence and I wondered what they were talking about, and why they were in more of a rush when the engine of a Charger was heard outside. I risked a glance outside and I saw the vehicle on fire. The njgine had flames coming out of it, and the wheels were on fire. "Dammit, he's here! Run for it!" The man holding the bag dropped the bag and the gun he was holding, and ran out the back door with two of the others following him. The last two thugs turned their guns onto the vehicle and started shooting at it.

The gunfire caused me to cover my ears from the loud banging noise, which left ringing in my ears. My mom ducked behind something while grabbing me, and I saw Cadence go behind the counter with the lady. When the gunfire stopped, I looked over the rack I was hiding behind, and saw a flaming person. Well, more specifically, his head was on fire, and where a face and head should be, was nothing but a skull.

The demon held up both of the criminals, as they gasped for air and kicked the man holding them up to no avail. The demon then grabbed the both of their heads, and smashed them into each other with so much force that their heads cracked open upon impact with blood flowing freely down their heads, staining the floor. I started to wretch at the sight, as I've never seen something so brutal before in my life.

The demon heard me make some noises, and went to investigate. He tossed the rack to the side, and looked at me and my mom with those blank eyes. He looked over me and my mom, then decided to leave the building and back into his car, where he drove off. Hopefully to find the three criminals that escaped.

~~Flashback End~~

The girls were shocked, to say the least. Sunset then asked with a hint of worry in her voice, "Okay, that's how you know of the Rider. But how does your brother know who he is?" I stood up from my current position and straightened my clothes out, finally calmed down.

"The three criminals that escaped through the back of the store? They managed to come across my brother and my dad. They knew the Rider was coming after them, and when he showed up, they held a knife up to my dads throat and their guns pointed at my brother." I sigh a little, remembering what my brother said happened to those three. "I'm not going to say what the Rider did to those three, but after that night, there was no trace of them anywhere. It's almost as if they disappeared off the face of the earth."

And before anyone could say anything else, the school secretary, Ms. Ravens' voice came in through the overcom. "Would Sunset Shimmer please come to the main office please?"

Sunset smiled a little and said "Looks like it's time for me to escort the new student. I'll be seeing you girls later." She waved at the others and made her way towards the main office, ready to greet the new student.

Great chapter. Wish it was a bit longer, can't wait to see more :twilightsmile:

I understand your wanting for the chapters to be longer. And that's something I am continuously trying to make happen. Only problem is that I always seem to decide that chapters like these are long enough, no matter how many times I tell myself that it could be longer. :fluttershysad:

But I appreciate your response none the less. :twilightsmile:

Well, go on then. Give us another

You my friend have earned a fav.

Shame you cancelled this story, but it's inspired me to maybe write my own GR/EQG fic with Robbie:

In this one, it's like what you did here. Robbie along with Gabe moves to Canterlot City hoping for a fresh start after East LA is cleared out of many villains and crime bosses thanks to the Rider. Robbie attends CHS and gets help for him and Gabe after being accepted into a new program created together by the different school heads (Celestia, Luna, Cadence, etc.) to give people who have difficulties with their home lives extra assistance. It's partially how Sunset survives on her own as she does with help from Celestia and Luna and now Robbie gets aid from them as well as Cadence and others as a way to aid students and promote good relations between schools to avoid the hatred that sprang from the CHS/CP rivalry. It also helps students who originally had to drop out get a second chance since Robbie had to drop out to take care of Gabe better.

Despite a slight rough start due to his social difficulties, he befriends the girls and many others at CHS and eventually becomes especially close with Sunset, soon resulting in romantic feelings for each other. The two eventually begin dating and fall in love. Everyone's happy for her and Gabe is happy for Robbie as he likes "Sunny" and sees her as a big sister. However, Robbie, is unsure if the relationship can last due to his "other half" and Sunset and the other's great distrust and unsurity of the Ghost Rider from what they've read about him. Meanwhile, though Sunset is happy to find true love after her fake relationship with Flash, she is worried and unsure since she knows how her luck can be sometimes and is worried about trying to keep the secret of Equestrian Magic from Robbie. Plus, both get weird vibes off if each other; something that actually SCARES Eli.

Meanwhile, Canterlot isn't QUITE as quiet and calm as Robbie may think. There is still plenty of crime. And it's about to get even crazier as once the Rider makes himself known, many of the bosses of Canterlot (Tirek, Sombra, Chrysalis, Ahuizotl and Grogar) are determined to not let their terf become the Rider's new hunting grounds.

Will Robbie be able to, a.) Keep Eli under control, b.) Keep his secret from his new friends, c.) Maintain his relationship with Sunset, and d.) Protect Canterlot City and possibly find a fresh start? Or will it all go up in flames? Will Sunset be able to accept Robbie's other half and the problems that come with it? Or will things go from bad to worse? And what could be the secret of Equestrian Magic that could have Eli Morrow so frightened and scared by it and could it mean possible good things for Robbie? Or is it TOO good to be true?

What do you think? If you have any good suggestions for the story, feel free to help. I could definitely use it :pinkiehappy:.

I know you've probably given up on this story but I think it's a really superb story. I want to know what happens next. Do research on the Robbie Reyes Ghost Rider, Equestria girls and formulate a plot that feels right to your heart. Ultimately it's up to you but I'm hoping that you will uncancel this story, it has amazing potential. You could also look around your surroundings and in your mind for inspiration.

Thanks. Don't know when I'll be able to since I'm pretty busy right now, but I'll hopefully begin next year once things have settled down some.
