Rosario + Ghost Rider

Episode 13: A Blazing Fire in a Blizzard

Rane: I feel like we need to go after her.
Kurumu: Why? She just tried to freeze you.
Moka: And kill me.
Kurumu: Well that wouldn't have been so bad.
Moka: Kurumu!
Rane: Enough! I know what she tried to do and I'm not happy about it either but she was just lonely. She's right when she thought I could relate to her but I found you guys to make that better.
Moka: So maybe if we become her friends she'll get better too.
Rane: Exactly
Kurumu: You two are too nice, but I guess I'm in.
Rane: Great, Kurumu you go find Yukari and search for her togerher. Moka you're with me.
Kurumu: I'm on it.
Kurumu sprouted her succubus wings and flew off towards the school.
Moka: Where do we even start looking?
Rane: Anywhere.
For a few hours they searched the campus but found no signs of her. Desparation was starting to kick in for Rane. What if Mizore did something dangerous? She could hurt someone or someone could hurt her even though in this current situation that didn't seem likely. The point was that Rane was running out of time as well as loosing his cool over it. He started to breathe heavier, he was sweating immensely and his hands would shake. Moka held Rane's hand to help him calm down.
Moka: We're gonna find her. Everything will be ok.
Rane: I hope so. The last thing we need is to hear that-
????: MR. KOTSUBO IS HURT!!!
Rane: MOTHER******
Mr. Kotsubo was the school gym teacher so you would think that he'd be physically healthy, not beaten to a pulp and wrapped in bandages. Rane and Moka walked over to check on him an were hoping that the cause wasn't who they thought it was.
Rane: Mr. Kotsubo?
Mr. Kotsubo: What?
Rane: Who did this to you?
Mr. Kotsubo: That stupid ice girl, she attacked me for no reason and darted off into the woods.
Rane: Dammit Mizore!
Mr. Kotsubo: I'm going to make sure that girl gets expelled for what she did.
Mr. Kotsubo was carted away to the infirmary while Rane contemplated his next move.
Moka: You're not giving up on her are you?
Rane: Of course not and now we know we need to expand our search.
Moka: I'll call the others.
Rane: Good and be quick about it.
Moka made the call to Kurumu and Yukari. She told them to check the woods to see if they could find Mizore there and Rane and Moka did the same. They searched until the sun started setting and by that point the search was starting to feel hopeless. But then Rane and Moka wandered to a cliff looking over the crimson ocean and standing on the edge was Mizore.
Rane: MIZORE!
Hearing her name startled her but she quickly regained her composer but something was without a doubt different about her.
Rane: You have to come back with us right now.
Mizore: I can't do that.
Moka: But why?
Mizore: Hmph, even you're hear.
Rane: Whatever it is we can work this out together.
Mizore: Together?
Mizore turned around, her body and hair covered in ice.
Mizore: I have nothing now because you rejected me Rane. You were my only hope of breaking this loneliness and if I'm going to be alone for the rest of my life I might as well die!
Rane: But you're not alone!
Mizore: SHUT UP!!!
Mizore started clutching to her skull as hard as she was clutching to the last bit of sanity she had left. But that didn't stop her power from running rampant. Soon ice clone after ice clone began to emerge from her body all saying terrible things like, "He doesn't love you. He rejected your feelings. No one could love you. Your such piece of trash." The scariest part about seeing them say those things was that it meant that Mizore actually believed these things and seeing how she tortured herself sent a boiling rage through Rane's body.
Rane: Moka I'm getting ready to lose it!
Moka: Quick my rosary!
Rane was able to pull of the rosary and almost immediately after he gave in to his rage being wrapped in blazing chains and bursting out was the ghost rider. Alongside him accompanied by the crimson moon that took away the daylight Moka's darker half stood next to him. They both stood ready for a fight but the clones never made a move toward them.
Moka: Are they scared?
Moka didn't know why they stopped but the rider could see something she didn't and summoned his motorcycle and driving towards the clones. He whipped the tail of his bike smashing into a few clones and setting them ablaze before he threw his chain off of the edge of the cliff.
Moka: Rane what are you doing?
Moka ran to the ghost rider trying to figure out what his purpose was and then she took a look at the ice clones. They were trying to cut the chain as well as force the rider to release so what was down there? Moka needed to know so she kicked a few off the clones into pieces and ran to the edge looking over he cliff and to her suprise at the end of the chain the real Mizore was hanging by her waist
Moka: Shit, gotta help her.
Moka tried the grab the chain to help pull but was intercepted by an ice clone who swiped at Moka's hand, cutting her palm.
Clones: Just let her die, it's what she wants, it's what she needs, it's the only way she'll find peace.
Moka: Peace my ass!
All of a sudden the cloned had chains wrapped around all of their necks and they all led to the rider who strapped them to the back of his bike, but not the one the original was connected to. The rider still held that chain in his hand and glared at Moka. A few seconds later he let the chain go, got on his bike and dragged the clones across the ground breaking them into pieces. But Mizore was falling, plummeting to her death, unable to do anything but then she stopped falling.
Mizore: Why am I not dead?
Moka: You're a real idiot you know.
Mizore looked up to see that Moka caught the chain and was pulling her up. Soon the rider returned, grabbing the chain and the two of them yanked Mizore out from over the cliff and she landed in the rider's arms who responded with a flaming punch to her face that sent her rolling on the ground. The rider then began to take steps toward Mizore and Mizore was ready to take any punishment but instead the strangest thing happens. The rider picked her up and hugged her.
Ghost rider: You don't get a second life so don't wast the one you have.
Moka: He's right. How are you gonna live if you decide to kill yourself before the real parts of live even start.
Mizore hung her head sulking but the rider supported her, holding her and letting her rest on her shoulder, at least until he returned to normal and passed out.
