Kamen Rider Yugo

Rescue Mission

The sun dipped below the horizon, casting a crimson glow over Yugo City as Karin and Karina finalized their plans for the rescue mission. After combing through the data, they had pinpointed a location where Ohma Zi-O and Dr. Erso were believed to be gathering forces—a derelict factory on the outskirts of the city, long abandoned but now teeming with ominous energy.

"We need to be smart about this," Karina said, her brow furrowed in concentration. "Ohma Zi-O will likely have a perimeter set up. We'll need to go in stealthily."

Karin nodded, her heart racing with anticipation. "I can't just sit back and wait. If there's a chance to reach my mother... I have to try."

"Then we go together," Karina replied, her voice firm. "We'll stick to the shadows and find a way to get to her before Ohma Zi-O can manipulate her further."

As they prepared their gear, Karin felt a mix of fear and determination. Every fiber of her being ached to see Dr. Erso again, to confront the darkness that had taken hold of her mother's heart. But the stakes were high, and she couldn't allow her emotions to cloud their mission.

Once they suited up as Kamen Rider Yugo, they made their way to the factory, the sounds of the city fading behind them. The moon hung high, casting an eerie glow over the abandoned structure as they approached.

"Stay low," Karina whispered, leading the way. They slipped through the broken entrance, navigating through shadows and debris, their senses heightened as they scanned for any sign of Ohma Zi-O or Dr. Erso.

Inside, the factory was alive with the sound of machinery, the air thick with tension. Karin's heart raced as she thought of her mother, the memories of love and warmth now intertwined with fear and darkness.

As they crept deeper into the facility, they spotted groups of shadowy figures—grunts loyal to Ohma Zi-O, patrolling the area. The atmosphere was charged, every sound amplified in the silence.

"We'll need to take them out quietly," Karina murmured, her psychic abilities ready to spring into action.

Karin nodded, focusing her energy. Together, they launched into action, using their skills to dispatch the grunts swiftly and silently. Each victory fueled Karin's determination, reminding her of the love she still held for her mother.

Finally, they reached a large chamber at the heart of the factory. Dimly lit, it pulsed with dark energy, and at its center stood Ohma Zi-O, flanked by Dr. Erso, who seemed lost in thought. Karin's heart sank at the sight of her mother, her expression cold and distant.

"Now's our chance!" Karina urged, her voice a whisper.

Karin nodded, stepping forward. "Mom! Dr. Erso! It's me, Karin!"

Dr. Erso's head snapped up, but her eyes remained devoid of recognition. "Karin? You shouldn't be here," she said, her voice dripping with disdain. "You're just a reminder of my failures."

"No!" Karin shouted, desperation flooding her voice. "I'm here to save you! You don't have to listen to him! You're stronger than this!"

But Ohma Zi-O interjected, his laughter echoing through the chamber. "Look at her, Karin! She has chosen to embrace the power I offered. She sees you as a weakness—a remnant of a life she left behind!"

"No!" Karin cried, tears blurring her vision. "Mom, please! Remember the love we had! We can fight this together!"

Dr. Erso's expression wavered, a flicker of doubt crossing her features. But Ohma Zi-O stepped closer, wrapping an arm around her. "Do not listen to her, Dr. Erso. You are stronger now, free from the shackles of sentimentality. Embrace your power!"
