He thinks you're better than me?

I don't know who's more pathetic,

you or him.

Now, listen to me. And try to get it

through that thick skull of yours.

You don't work for my father anymore.

You work for me.

Get the contract from the Caretaker.

Bring it to me in San Venganza

and maybe I'll spare your girl's life.

And, Johnny...

...don't make me wait.

Figured you'd be back, bonehead.

Where's the contract?

I can't end this without it.

Just gonna have to dig

this whole damn place up myself.

It's not there, kid.

Contract of San Venganza.

Hell on earth.

Now, you're gonna have to trust me.

And why is that?

He may have my soul...

...but he doesn't have my spirit.

Any man who's got the guts

to sell his soul for love...

...got the power to change the world.

You didn't do it for greed.

You did it for the right reason.

Maybe that puts God on your side.

To him, that makes you dangerous.

Makes you unpredictable.

That's the best thing

you can be right now.

San Venganza's 500 miles from here.

We better get moving.

"We"?

I got one last ride left in me.

Carter Slade.

Can you keep up?

Let's ride.

Stick to the shadows.

This is end of the trail for me.

I got nothing left.

I could only change one more time,

and I was saving it for this.

God knows I've made

my share of mistakes.

Been trying to make things right

ever since.

Guess all I can do now is hope he

sees fit to give me a second chance.

Thank you.

No.

Thank you, kid.

Surprise.

Stop.

You change, she dies.

Do it, Johnny.

Let her go first.

Looks like you're out of time.

"This is the contract of San Venganza.

All of you...

...come to me!"

Johnny!

My name is Legion...

...for we are...

...many.

Let's go. He got what he wanted.

You go. I gotta get him to

the shadows. I gotta end this.

Why? Why you?

It's been me since the day

I made the deal.

I'm the only one

who can walk in both worlds.

I'm Ghost Rider.

Run!

Come on, you son of a b*tch.

All of your world...

...all of your souls...

...will be mine now.

- Throw me the gun!

- It's out!

Throw it!

How does it feel to have

all that evil inside of you?

All their power.

All their souls.

A thousand souls to burn.

Look into my eyes.

Your souls are stained

by the blood of the innocent.

Feel their pain.

- Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Kill you!

Stop it!

Oh, God!

Monster.

I'm not afraid.

Congratulations, Johnny.

You upheld your end of the bargain.

It's time I take back

the power of the Ghost Rider.

You get your life back.

The love you've always wanted.

You can start a family of your own.

There are more deals to be made.

More people willing to give their souls

for what they desire.

Let someone else carry this curse.

You're free now.

After all...

...a deal's a deal.

No.

I'm gonna own this curse...

...and I'm gonna use it against you.

Whenever innocent blood is spilt...

...it'll be my father's blood...

...and you'll find me there.

A spirit of vengeance...

...fighting fire with fire.

I will make you pay for this.

You can't live in fear.

No!

So where will you go now?

Wherever the road takes me, I guess.

My daddy once said, "If you don't

make a choice, the choice makes you."

Yeah. But why do your choices

always keep us apart?

Sure wish things could have

turned out different.

No. This is what you are.

This is what

you always were meant to be.

You got your second chance.

Go out there and make the best of it.

It's said that the West

was built on legends...

...and that legends are

a way of understanding...

...things greater than ourselves.

Forces that shape our lives.

Events that defy explanation.

Individuals whose lives

soar to the heavens...

...or fall to the earth.

This is how legends are born.
