He walks with his head held high and a pair of large aviator sunglasses to shield them from the harsh rays of the early October sun. He wears a pair of expensive grey jeans along with a long sleeved black muscle shirt that hugged his abs. He adorns a pair of black combat boots with ornate metal designs embedded in the front and sides, the words "em style="box-sizing: border-box;"Made in Heaven/em," accompanied by angel wings adorning the heels. The young man wears two intersecting silver belts that connect in the form of an X. Slung over his shoulder is a black messenger bag containing an assortment of school supplies. His hair was relatively short yet straight, reaching his neck. However, it should be mentioned that his hair was two colors as well. Pitch black towards his scalp, with streaks of crimson towards the ends./p

Sure, he could get with the times and buy himself one of those new Mp3 players, but the Walkman had a vintage feel to it, one that Sebastián couldn't bear to leave behind./p

Oh yeah, Ralph was a modern kid with a soul trapped in the past./p

"We've got a big problem!" He finally catches up to Sebastián, hunched over with his hands on his knees in an attempt to catch his breath. It was at that moment that Sebastián noticed that Ralph didn't look too good. His hair was a mess, his jeans covered in dirt, and a pretty nasty looking cut on his forehead that leaked blood. Looking around, Sebastián even noticed the people around them giving Ralph concerned glances./p

Ralph loved his Harley more than he loved his own mother. Stealing something with that much sentimental value would be enough to send a man on a warpath. The Kings, on the other hand, were a force to reckon with. They were a gang of bikers that had a long and pretty dark history with the law. Kidnappings, murders, thefts, and gang-related violence, these guys were at the top of the suspect chart. If these guys stole Ralph's bike, then this was a definite problem. . .for Ralph./p

Sure, The Kings were a gang of tough guys who take what they want, when they want. It never mattered who they stole from, killed, or who they kidnapped for ransom. The only reasons why the cops had difficulty taking the gang down was because of either a lack of evidence or corrupt lawyers who knew just about every loophole in the lawbook. Not to also mention corruption within the police force itself; some officers had no problem accepting bribes from the Snakes. What chance did Sebastián stand against a group such as this?/p
p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 24px; font-size: 18px; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 24px; padding: 0px; color: #555555;" data-p-id="8e6e331d935c0e4be1ec8500799645c1"A big chance, actually. The best chance out of anyone in this city perhaps. Sebastián Wolfe was a person some might call an asshole, for his cold attitude and brooding nature. However, this was only the cover of the story./p

It took them an hour and a half to reach the place, mainly because the place was located in a sparsely populated part of town and they had to hail a cab there. Once they reached the place, Sebastián had to admit that it was a sight for sore eyes./p
p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 24px; font-size: 18px; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 24px; padding: 0px; color: #555555;" data-p-id="2d336a9c2e8da67556a6c08befcba5c8"The hangout spot was an abandoned construction yard with a ground made primarily of sand and broken beer bottles littering the place. The surrounding fences and concrete walls were covered in graffiti no doubt belonging to The Kings. Sebastián also spotted twelve motorcycles parked near a warehouse, their owners close by, no doubt./p
p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 24px; font-size: 18px; font-family: 'Source Sans Pro', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 24px; padding: 0px; color: #555555;" data-p-id="4621ca12189c3ced8dab183583557ee3"Sebastián walked up to the warehouse and stood directly in the center of the parking lot. Suddenly, he began clapping his hands as hard as he could, the sound echoing throughout the area./p

"That's some power you've got there, but it's still no match against Iron Maiden!" Iron Maiden drew back its fist and took another swing. This time, Earth Song's fist glowed with a blue aura and punched the other attack away as well. Earth Song's hands began to slow, and suddenly a whip with a blunt/bladed end appeared./p

However, it wasn't long before he was able to recover from the initial pain and launch a counterattack by swiping at the ground beneath Sebastián's feet. Using the enhanced strength of Earth Song's legs, he launched himself into the air and dodged the attack./p

In addition, it wasn't the fastest, as Iron Maiden was a large and bulky stand whose attacks were only truly dangerous if the target was within range./p

It reached down and picked up four beams in each hand, and Sebastián could only watch in pure shock as a mouth like opening appeared, revealing what could only be described as a black hole. Iron Maiden lifted the steel beams to its maw and began devouring it, a metal groan, that almost sounded like it was enjoying it. Once it finished its high iron meal, it turns its gaze back to Sebastián and began to slowly waddle towards him. Sebastián raised his fists to eye level, and Earth Song did the same. When Iron Maiden through its punch, Earth Song prepared to block the strike./p

The power of Iron Maiden's strike had increased significantly, Earth Song sinking a solid three feet into the earth like one of those old cartoons. Every bone in Sebastián's body was rattled as Earth Song struggled to hold back Iron Maiden, who was continuing to put its weight on the armored Stand./p

They had been walking for a solid forty-five minutes, and yet they didn't seem any closer to Sebastián's apartment. Based on the observation that Sebastián was on time to school every single day, the teen had come to the conclusion that he lived at least twenty minutes away from school grounds. So why would Sebastián take longer to reach home?/p

He could have moved to Egypt or London to live with the family of choice, but, in the end, all Sebastián wanted was to be left alone. Now, he had an opportunity to actually find out if his Father was dead or alive. In all honesty, part of Sebastián didn't give two shits about Aeron. That was his world, not Sebastián's.

The body was sent flying at high speed through a wall and out onto the streets. Meanwhile, the hostage found herself being held in Jotaro's arms, an obvious blush on her face./p
