Driving through Hillrock Heights in East Los Angeles, Robbie Reyes scolds his brother Gabriel for telling him to drive faster. Gabriel protests that they haven't been out for a drive in forever, Robbie apologizing and saying that his new job has been keeping him busy, but that he doesn't think he's cut out for it and wants to quit. As Gabriel urges him to go faster, Robbie retorts that they're just taking him to school. Hellfire roils out of the Hell Charger's engine as a distorted voice says that the engine runs on blood and that it's time to gas up. Transforming into its demonic form, the Hell Charger accelerates, Robbie trying to hit the brakes - which don't respond. As he incredulously demands to know what's going on, the demonic voice snarls that the Hell Charger needs feeding. Leaping a hill, the Hell Charger speeds along the roofs of other cars as the demonic voice rants that it feels the need for soul-burning speed. As Gabriel cheers, Robbie struggles to get his demonic vehicle back under control. The Hell Charger wraps flaming chains around Gabriel, telling Robbie that he doesn't just get to quit being a Ghost Rider. As the Hell Charger speeds towards Gabriel's school, the vehicle snarls that Ghost Riders are unholy spirits that have to watch the world burn. Tapping into his Ghost Rider powers, Robbie skids the Hell Charger to a stop just shy of crashing into the school. As Gabriel cheers, Robbie furiously lashes out at the Hell Charger. As Gabe asks his older brother what's going on, Robbie tells him the car's just running wierd and he'll get it fixed.
