《Winter Wonderland》Red Rose Tyrant: Part 24

Riddle had snapped, as he began to start laughing.

"You're all fed up?! I'm the one who's fed up with all of you!" Riddle shouts in rage. "No matter how strict I am, no matter how many heads I remove...you keep breaking the rules! All any of you care about is doing what YOU want to do! Clearly, none of you value your heads!"

"Off with your heads!" a lot of people were beheaded. Including Y/n who winced a bit.

"t-that's a lot of collars..." Yuuna mumbled.

"Run! Let's get out of here!"

"Foolish. Absolutely foolish! They deserve everything you throw at them!" Ira taunted again.

"Hahahaha! How you like that, hm? My strict adherence to the rules was clearly the correct path! All of you should look up to Y/n as an example! She is an Empress after all" Riddle laughed in some sort for sadistic manner. He turned to Y/n with a dark look in his eyes as she trembled in fear, "Y/n, my dear Rose~" he lifted your chin up to face him, "if you at least try to apologize and admit you were wrong..and I was right, I can't get rid of that collar for you? Right...? He asked in some sort of Yandere way.

"Riddle..."

"Cease this improper behavior now, Mr. Rosehearts. I expect better from you!" Crowley yelled.

"Trey...if he keeps using his spell...this could get real ugly!" Cater looked at Riddle with a shocked expression

"Riddle, stop this!" Trey and Y/n shouted.

"Wow, way to totally prove me wrong here, pal" Ace shouted sarcastically. "I call you a baby, and you immediately throw a temper tantrum!"

"Ace! You're not helping!" Y/n shouts towards the boy. "Shut up!"

"Retract your comment immediately, or I shall skewer you where you stand!" Riddle screamed back in anger, his face also turning red.

"No way. I ain't retractin' shit!"

"AAARRGGHHHH!" Riddle screams in rage, as Ira continued to taunt Riddle, making a dark aura surrounding him, and trees floating.

"T-this is some serious magic!" Deuce gasped.

"Everyone! Get out of here!" Cater instructed everyone, as they run towards an exit or a safe place to hide.

"Mighty roses, tea this brute to pieces!" Riddle ordered the trees, as vines broke free from the soil, and dashed towards Ace to attack him.

"Ace! Get out of the way!" Yuuna ran towards Ace, pushing him out of the path of the vine. "Yuuna?!" the girl stood there, preparing herself for the impact, but it never came when she saw an ice wall in front of her.

Suddenly, a flash of light appeared, as roses and vines turn into cards.

"Nngh?! What just-"

"I-I'm alive..." Yuuna collapsed on her butt in shock, staring at the ice wall in awe. It seems Y/n was right on time.

"All the rose trees turned into cards?"

"Riddle, stop this right now!"

"Wait, that is Trey's doodle suit?! But...how?!" Cater gasped.

"all the magic-sealin' collars are gone!" Grim looked around his neck, as Yuuna did the same, feeling the weight disappear.

"What did I tell you? My magic can overwrite characteristics for a short time. So I used it to make 'Riddle's magic' into 'my magic'" Trey explained.

"You can do that? That's some kinda loophole!"

"Yuuna! Are you alright...?" Y/n asked, dashing towards her to see if she was alright. "Y-yes...thank you, [nickname]"

"N-no...you made my rose leave my side....Off with their heads! I SAID, off with their heads!" Riddle shouts, completely blinded by rage.

"Riddle, stop! Can't you see how others see you right now?" Trey asked, as Y/n shielded Yuuna.

"He...he was really gonna do it!"

"He is completely out of control.."

"H-He's a monster!"

"What...? Was my magic overwritten by yours? Does that mean your signature spell is stronger than mine?!" Riddle asked darkly, feeling completely betrayed as his eyes began to tear up from anger.

"Of course, it doesn't. Riddle, take a deep breath and listen to us! Listen to Y/n!"

"Are YOU going to tell me that I'm wrong too? After all, I've done to protect the rule of law?!" Riddle widen his eyes in surprise, gritting his teeth. "Do you know how much I've suffered for this?! I...I refuse to believe this!" Riddle cried out.

"But...I'm right! I'M the one who's right! There is NO POSSIBLE ALTERNATIVE" Riddle shouts.

Ira began laughing maniacally. "Follow everywhere I go. Around a garden or valley low. Give you everything you've been dreaming of, just let me in~" she sang, going around the boy.

'n-no..it can't be' Y/n thought.

"Everything you wantin' gonna be, the magic story you've been told. And you'll be safe under my control" Ira cupped Riddle's cheeks, leaning down to his ears, "Just let me~..." and with that, Yuuna screamed in fear, from hearing an overflow of ink dripping constantly. "Make it stop...!" she shouts in pain.

Riddle's vision then turned black.

a female voice asked. It was Ira, as she appeared in front of Riddle, her pink hair flowing with the wind, as her golden eyes held anger in them

Riddle shakes from his growing anger. Ira then gave Riddle an illusion of his precious Y/n being influenced by troublemakers, which caused her to become a criminal. He gritted his teeth, he didn't want HIS rose to be influenced by troublemakers and throw her whole life away.

Ira taunted.

Riddle, inside of the illusion let out a scream out of anger, shattering the black void he was in.

"Riddle!(Ira!) Stop!" Trey and Y/n shout in unison, reaching out toward Riddle who was consumed by a dark shadow, belonging to Ira who laughs maniacally, rising up, morphing into a shadow of the queen of hearts.

The darkness around Riddle faded, as he looked different. His skin is pale as a ghost, ink ran down his arms. Red and black roses decorated his body as he seemed to be wearing a darker version of the gown worn by the queen herself, but ripped...

"Riddle..." Y/n mumbled, frozen in place at the sight of Riddle that Ira put him through.

"h-his whole body changed..." Yuuna stuttered in fear.

"Heh heh heh.....AHAHAHAHA!" Riddle laughed madly. "You are fools to defy! You are not welcome in my world. In my world, I am the law. I am the order made manifest!

The only response I will accept from anyone is "yes, housewarden Riddle." All who defy me will lose their heads! Hahaha!" Riddle said in a demonic voice, similar to that of the abyss, as his voice was mixed in with Ira's.

"Dear me, what have I done?! I've allowed a student to overblot in my presence!" Crowley wailed.

"Overblot? What does that mean?!" Grim shouts.

"Overblot is a dangerous condition that you mortal mages must avoid at all costs! He is engulfed with negativity as Ira only made things worse! He lost control of his magic and emotions to Ira!" Y/n explained in the best way she could.

"Who is this Ira who keeps speaking off?!" Crowley asked. Y/n pointed to the overblot monster behind Riddle, taking the form of the queen of hearts whose head is nothing but a shadow. "She is Ira, in the form of an overblot incarnation..."

"Okay, sure...but what does that even mean?!"

"Please explain!" Deuce too was confused.

"To put it in Layman's terms, he's in evil berserker mode! Ira, in the ancient language, means, wrath!" Cater said in a creative tone for the others to understand.

Trey and Y/n looked at Riddle in worry. "If he keeps releasing magical energy...we could be looking at a loss of life here"

"Indeed. His life will be in the hands of the abyss!"

"What?!"

"The well-being of my students is my top priority. Therefore, I must evacuate them immediately. As for Mr. Rosehearts, we must restore his consciousness before his magical energy runs dry! For as bad as losing him would be, there are scenarios that are far worse...Listen well: I need all of you to seek help from the other housewardens and members of the faculty-" Crowley's instructions were interrupted by a battle cry.

"Take that!" Ace summoned some wind.

"eh?!" Cater, Grim, Trey, and Y/n were surprised.

"I summon thee, cauldron!" Deuce used his magic to summon as many cauldrons to cafe Riddle

"Myah!" Grim blew some blue free towards Riddle

"What do you fools think you're doing?" Riddle asked in a dark tone.

"Uh, hello?! 911? We've got an idiot emergency!" Cater trembled.

"Leave them...they are trying to at least weaken him" Y/n ordered, motioning towards Riddle. Ira started grinding her teeth in anger as she let out a roar, making a soundwave head towards them. Y/n summoned her warrior fan and created a gust of icy wind to repeal the soundwave, "nggh! Don't you dare stop me, my rose! After all, these rules are to protect you..!" Riddle shouted in anger.

"tch! I'm not givin' up til I hear him say, 'I was wrong and I'm sorry'" Ace said,

Trey let out a sigh, "All right, let's do this. I can overwrite his magic for a little longer. In the meantime, do what you can! Headmaster, please evacuate the other students!" Trey declared.

"Wait! This is dangerous!" Crowley tried to reason with them. "Are you serious Trey? You can't beat Riddle!" Cater agreed with the headmaster.

"So what, you're not even gonna fight unless you KNOW you can win?" Ace shouts in anger. "Yeah, he's right. That's weak" Grim exclaimed.

"This is the only way we can think of to snap him out of this" Deuce says. "yeah...I don't want to lose him. There're too many things I've left unsaid." Trey muttered, having some memories of Riddle playing with him and chenya, having a bright smile on his face. Along with the bad memory of Riddle's mother scolding Trey's parents as he just stood there in shock, while Riddle cries and pleads with his mother

"It's alright, after all, they have me to support them," Y/n said, twirling her fan, having it morph into an ice staff.

"We just have to do this, whatever it takes!" Yuuna shouts, using her own magic to summon a large cross, "Micheal!" like in Honkai Impact.

"ugh, I do NOT like or subscribe to this, but fine!" Cater says, getting ready for the battle.

"Fine...I'll be back as soon as I've gotten the students to safety. Stand firm until then!" Crowley dashed away, wasting no time to evacuate the students to safety.

"Such defiance, from every last one of you! How dare you influence my Y/n! I shall behead each and every last one of you!" RIddle shouts. Ira let out a low growl as she raised her hand up in the air along with Riddle, summoning arrows shapes into each other cards

" 'My Y/n?'...tch, Riddle's body can't take much more of this. We need to stop him before it's too late!" Trey shouts
