A/N I'd like to thank everyone who has voted in the poll so far and would like to quickly get a couple of things out of the way for that. One is you can access it by going to my profile and clicking the link there and two whoever wins the poll will get to be, a bit obviously, featured more in stories. But yeah not much else other than that and hope you enjoy the chapter.

As the smoke clears Sonata and Caleb notice that the corpse of the store owner has been completely disintegrated. While the teen tries to run after the killer the older stand user stops him before turning for the store entrance.

Sonata- "Wait where are you going?! The killer is getting away and we just figured out how he kills people!"

Caleb- "Calm down. Now Sonata we are going to slowly walk out of this store and we are going to do everything we can to not trigger any of his abilities."

Sonata- "Are you kidding me we can easily take him. I've grown way stronger from when I bumped into you that day."

Caleb- (Stops by the door) "Can you tell me exactly what his powers are? (Sonata is lost for words) I like you kid but you need to learn to observe. Which means not just to look but to look well. To not just listen but listen well. If we don't do this (Scans the room) then we will both die."

As if to taunt the killer for hiding and the experienced fighter's warning Sonata comments how the enemy "automatic" stand has disappeared. The punishment for his hubris is swift when Hexplosive Minefield slams into his face where it begins to grind the boy's flesh using it's treads. Needing to save the young stand user The Leviathan ACT 4 is called out to beat down the small stand but only succeeds in putting some minor dents and cracks in the tank car. Hearing the bomb click as if it's about to go off Caleb using his time stop beats down on the tough stand some more before smashing it into the floorboards. Despite taking multiple beating the small stand is still fully functioning which gets the bluenette even more riled up about finding the user. Even though he is advised otherwise the teen still uses The Maven of the Strings Act 2 to scan in a fifty meter area and sees the killer walking away. However to the inexperienced combatant's horror the man is already outside of his stand's range and in seeing this Sonata begins to panic. Meanwhile Caleb, who's knuckles are bleeding, has swapped tactics from pummeling the toy tank to instead reaching inside of it's mouth to rip it apart. This starts to work but The Leviathan is forced to throw away the bomb before it can explode. As the suicide bomber begins to roll back inside the store it swaps targets from the cool headed man to the panicking teen.

Caleb- "Hmm I think I know how you work now. (Sees HM turn to Sonata) Shit! Bring out Maven to protect yourself!"

Sonata- "Ahhhhh it's fifty meters away with the killer! (HM pounces towards him) I'm sorry!"

Caleb- " *Sigh* Yare yare daze. Leviathan Avichi!"

Stopping time Mr. Caleb is able to start a fire quickly to distract the bomb stand before restarting time. However while this does pull the stand's attention from Sonata the older stand user realizes too late that the heat seeking missile gets stronger the hotter the target is. The massive explosion that follows blows out the entire store entrance and catches the third Fated in the blast. Seeing Caleb covered in holes and bleeding to death Sonata snaps out of his panic to drag the mentor to the back of the shop. Quick to learn the bluenette turns on the hallway lights before making it into a kitchen area near the back. Seeing the lights quickly going out in the hall the teen looks around the kitchen for something to distract the automatic stand. However all attempts to find a heat source including turning on the stove, which was electric and malfunctioned, or using a tea thermos, which was empty, failing begin to make the boy panic again. Looking at his broken teacher's body though reminds the stand user of what panicking has gotten him so far and awakens a reserve of resolve in his body.

Sonata- (Turns off the stove) "No. I have to observe like Mr. Caleb said. Damn it why should I be the one panicking while you walk free? Why should I be the one begging for god to help me when you're the murderer here?! Maven Act 2!"

When the bomb stand rolls into the room The Maven of Strings pushes against it so the support stand can place a special Power Chord onto it. Sonata has yet to notice his hair has changed to match when he first gained his stand except the tips have taken on a yellow coloration. Meanwhile the Hexplosive Minefield is driving in circles trying to catch a "Tempo" Power Chord which is attached to the stand like a carrot in front of a donkey. As the enemy ability is chasing the sizzling heat radiating from the orb the bluenette makes a call to Taric. However while trying to explain what has happened to the fourth Fated a clicking sound draws the attention of the sound user. The matured combatant puts his hand near the stove and notices that despite being turned off the piece of shit cooking device is getting hotter by the second. With barely enough time to drag Caleb out of the shop and tell his friends where to go HM picks up it's new target before going off. Not only is Sonata knocked back from avoiding the blast but his lower back experiences a sharp tearing sensation.

Sonata- "Crap Maven's tail was still attached and was destroyed in the blast. (Sees HM come out) Act 2! Act 2! (Sees Act 2's withered body) Ahhhh Act 2 died! No wait this happened once before when it…"

As if to prove the boy's theory a figure burst forth from the smoke before halting mid air near her user. It's face is completely covered by a black plate with a pair of yellow eyes glowing beneath. The stand is wearing a long sleeve shirt with golden lines going down it and is colored white to match the rest of it's body color, the dress it's wearing also has slits on both sides which reveal pants underneath as well as a three decorating the front of said dress, from the sides of her head are two long insectoid wings that curve all the way it's back while changing from aqua to sea green down. Suddenly the teen's stand begins to project a both feminine and mechanical voice.

Maven- "What are my orders master?"

Sonata- "Woah we grew again and you look so much stronger."

Maven- (Sees HM coming) "What are my orders?"

Sonata- "Oh right well I don't know what you can do so can you protect us from that bomb?"

Maven- "Understood"

Moving with high speeds to stand in front of her user the sheer amount of wind conjured by the Maven is enough to send Sonata flying a few meters back. Using her new found speed and strength the sound based guardian then begins to punch away at her enemy in a golden light but is rammed by the bomb onto her back.

Maven- (Gets up) "I'm sorry sir but I am not strong enough to destroy the enemy. (Dust herself off) S-H-I-T."

Sonata- (Shakes his stand) "What do you mean you're not strong enough?! (Goes to Caleb) We haven't grown stronger at all."

Maven- "I did say I couldn't destroy it not that I didn't protect us. (HM rolls closer) After all my Crescendo should be working right about now." (HM stops)

Hexplosive Minefield- "Come on. (Sinks into the ground) Look at me." (Sinks further)

Maven- (Puts her arms together) "I used my powers of gravity, air, and sound to make the enemy so heavy it can't move. By the way if you move further away the weaker the weight becomes but the closer we get the opposite holds true."

Sonata- "Well since it can't get to use I think we should stay right where we are until help shows up. (Turns to Caleb) Hang in there."

Meanwhile at a cafe not too far away Ziggs is drinking some tea before looking at his watch. Normally by now his Hexplosive Minefield would have returned from killing it's targets by now which the killer finds odd.

Ziggs- 'What is going on at that shoe store? I shouldn't have to worry about those two since Hexplosive Minefield has no weaknesses. (Sees his left hand twitch) Am I having a heart attack?!'

Suddenly his hand slams into the table and shatters the tea cup. Ziggs instantly realizing that something is wrong with his deployed bomb tries to get up but his hand drags him to the ground. An employee tries to help the killer with his now several hundred kilogram hand but the weight is so great that gravity forces it back down which tears the now saddened sever's clothes. A couple of minutes later after helping Mr. Caleb as best he can Sonata hears footsteps down the street. Standing their in his purple suit is an exhausted man who is bleeding from his left hand.

Ziggs- "Phew I'll tell you this weight really started to get to me when I was crossing the street a bit back. It also made me break a cup at the cafe which I payed for since I'm such a nice guy but would you believe when I told you it feels like my luck has gone to shit today despite that. I mean on the way here I got mugged by two thugs. Granted I blew off their fingers for trying to take my wallet but I think I should work out at the new gym opening soon. After all my stamina kind of sucks."

Sonata- "Wait a second are you the killer?! (Glows green) Act 3 get him!"

When the teen's stand tries to attack the murderer however a humanoid stand emerges to defend it's master with ease. A single punch from The Hexplosives Expert sends Sonata flying back and in doing so he is knocked out of his Crescendo range.

Ziggs- (HM is freed) "Ah much better."

Sonata- "But wait a stand user can only have one stand."

Ziggs- "Easy my Hexplosive Minefield is an ability that my Hexplosives Expert can launch out to act on it's own. Hence why only my left hand has sustained any damage. By the way I'm going to erase you now."

Sonata is then thrust into a major dilemma as his stand informs him that she can only focus Crescendo onto one target. Faced with either stunning the killer or Hexplosive Minefield the boy chooses the "shitty" suicide bomber only to have The Hexplosive Expert pin The Maven of the Strings underfoot.

Ziggs- "It seems that you were fated to lose this battle no matter what you choose. Then again I respect you for making my tracer bomb surprisingly useless and even making me feel a bit defeated. Now then do you have any tissues or a handkerchief on you? (Sonata just stares) Hey I've shown you respect so you can at least talk with me."

Sonata- "No, I don't." (Has one tossed to him)

Ziggs- "Here have mine then. (Punches Sonata) After all now you're bleeding a lot from your nose. (Checks his watch) I've got a bit over a minute to beat you death before you friends show up. (Stomps Sonata's hand) Also don't scream. (Shoves the other into the boys mouth) After all I endured the same pain you did and I didn't. After all you're a boy aren't you? (Slams Sonata's face into the ground) You should take after me. (Grabs the handkerchief) See now I have to clean your nose. After all they say that if your nose is stuffed your brain slows down."

When the psychopath is done cleaning the teen's face he then proceeds to slam the boy's head into the ground repeatedly. After shaking his hand free of some blue hairs he tore out the man notices the boy holding something on the ground.

Ziggs- "What do you have there?" (Recalls HM)

Sonata- "Y-Your name is Ziggs. Jin Ziggs is your real name." (Is rolled over)

Ziggs- (Sees his license) "When did you get my wallet? Answer me you brat!"

Sonata- "You said you had to pay the cafe for damages. I got the idea from that."

Ziggs- (Grabs his wallet) "So what? What could you gain from knowing my name? I'm about erase you anyways."

Sonata- "Yeah, you're going to kill me but don't you get it I was able to figure out you name. You aren't that big of a deal. After all you might get away but how does it make you feel. Knowing that a little brat like me was able to figure out who you were? You're a complete idiot and I look forward to seeing you in hell!"

Ziggs- "You little bastard!"

Summoning Hexplosive Expert the killer punches a hole into Sonata's chest which instantly drain most of the life from the teen's eyes. Feeling a sense of defeat again Ziggs decides to end the boy's existence for good with his Satchel Charge bomb. Before he does though an ocd attack makes him fix his victims socks which the sociopath notices are inside out after the boy's shoe fell off. With his condition settled and the downed Maven of the Strings starting to fade the bomb stand user attempts to wipe his target out of existence when he hears a voice behind him.

Caleb- "Sonata you were winning this fight psychologically at the end there."

Ziggs- (HE blocks a Levia punch) "Who are you? (Sees Caleb's wounds) Huh you probably would have been better staying on the ground passed out." (Checks his watch)

Caleb- "That's a nice watch you have there. Too bad I'm gonna break the face so badly you won't be able to tell the time anymore. And by face I mean yours."

Ziggs- "Hehehe look pal you see like an interesting person to chat with but I only have half a minute to get out of here. (Caleb takes a knee) I mean seriously I can see through some of your wound and your stand was weak just now. Did you really think you could beat my Hexplosives Expert?"

Levia- "Lowl!" (Right hooks HE)

Ziggs- 'What?!'

Caleb- (Grabs Ziggs wrist) "You know what never mind this watch is ugly as fuck. (Let's go) But don't you worry. (Adjust his hat) After all your face is about to wind up even uglier."

Levia- "Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl! Lowl!" (Punches Ziggs away)

Ziggs- 'What the fuck is with that stand? It moved so fast it was like everything around it stopped…' (Passes out)

Caleb- (Recalls Levia) "Thank you Sonata. You saved my ass towards the end of this fight and you have grown so much from the boy I met not too long ago." (Collapses)

Not even a minute later Ziggs is awoken by the sound of voices and begins to crawl away while noting how today is easily the worst in his life. Before the killer can get too far he is stopped by Kassadin and Taric, who has just healed Sonata and Caleb, who are demanding he show his face.

Ziggs- "Ahhh! You have to help me! The store just exploded after the owner came running out!"

Taric- "Woah, woah, are you hurt? Do you need me to help you out?"

Ziggs- (Curls up) "Yeah I think some of my ribs are broken. (Sees Caleb stirring) Please heal me quickly."

Taric- "Yeah I don't think so. I barely look old enough to sneak into a pachinko parlor but you're acting like I'm a doctor. So that means you saw my stand didn't you?" (Summons Shield)

Kassadin- "Son of bitch he's the one who killed Malz and Kat." (Summons The Void Walker)

Ziggs- "*Sigh* I was hoping that it wouldn't come to this but I suppose I deserve this for losing so badly. But I'd like you all to know that while I have lost this battle I will have my peaceful life!"

Using Hexplosive Expert the man cuts off his left hand and releases Hexplosive Minefield to cover his escape. Caleb is barely able to awaken in time to warn the teens that the bomb stand can't be broken. With this information Taric has his stand punch the automatic stand and in turn heals the hand so it returns to Ziggs. As the hand is guiding them to the murder Sonata tells everyone their targets information. By the time they catch up with the appendange the group is too late as the killer has reached his destination, the salon Charming Looks. Awaiting inside is a horrifying scene of a man with his face and fingerprints missing and Dasom on the floor with a hole in her neck.

Dasom- "I'm so sorry everyone. He was just so terrifying and I couldn't fight him."

Caleb- (Sees the hand leave out the back) "Shit! Get away from her now!"

Kassadin- "Void Walker! Force Pulse!"

Using his stand to pull his friends back they are barely able to avoid the blast caused by Dasom being blown up. By the time everyone is out the back door the streets are crowded with people going home from work and no leads can be found on who Ziggs stole the identity of.

[Name: Dasom Stand: Charm Status: Has died]

[Name: Jin Ziggs Stand: Hexplosives Expert :Status: Has evaded capture]

Summer quickly comes into the small town which prepares for it's tourist season but this is of little concern for our party of stand users. After Caleb contacts the Sivir Foundation to help monitor the town and Cassiopeia begins to take photos of various people to investigate on her own the teens are asked to look into Zigg's old house with The Leviathan stand user. While inside both Fateds are attacked by the former resident's deceased father who has the Guardian Angel stand. It's power revived his soul as a poltergeist but Caleb traps him inside of a photo using the stand's camera form. Despite this with some trickery against Kassadin the man manages to escape with one of the stand arrows. A few days later Taric and Kass are walking in the fields just outside of town when they notice several crop circles. As they explore the strange symbols the duo find in the center of one person passed out on the ground. He introduces himself as Zairyo and the boy claims to be an alien from outer space which gives the stand users a good laugh. However the more the group interact something is clearly different with the new kid. No matter what test they give be it trying to telepathically chat with the stranger or make him flinch from a stand punch Zairyo shows no sign of being a stand user. Even so the self proclaimed alien is able to transform himself into various objects while claiming his species can all do this. He claims the closest name in human would be Living Forge but does state that while he can change shape freely he can't take the form of living things or produce power beyond his physical strength. A strange quirk the boy mentions he has is that whenever sirens are going off he starts to break out and experience pain. While a nice person Taric gets an idea in his head for some easy money since his mom froze his lottery winning bank account. After teaching the alien the rules of a simple dice game and how to turn into the gaming tools the duo head to Cassiopeia's house.

Cassiopeia- "What the hell do you want Taric?"

Taric- "Hey no need to be hostile. I just wanted to stop by and say hi."

Cassiopeia- "Liar. You came here for a reason because you sure as hell wouldn't just stop by the say hi."

Taric- "Okay fine. I wanted some cash for the summer and I was curious if you'd bet with me in a game of kitsune bakuchi?" (Pulls out some dice)

Cassiopeia- (Pinches her nose) "Why the hell would I play with you? I hate you. Seriously you interrupt me while I'm trying to find a serial killer to bet with you?"

Taric- "Well when you put it like that..."

Cassiopeia- "Oh no you misunderstand me. I will play and beat you. But we aren't using those dice you have. I think I have some in my house so let me get them."

Taric- (Grins) 'That's fine because the dice I showed were yours. I actually managed to seek in just before I came to plant Zairyo."

Thus the two stand users begins a game of "chance" and place their bets. Several rounds in Cassiopeia can't believe that she could have such rotten luck while Taric has perfect rolls. While they are having a laugh about such an occurrence the mangaka cuts off her pinky.

Taric- "What the hell?! Cassiopeia let me heal you."

Cassiopeia- "No! I let myself be fooled by you long enough. (Pulls out an envelope) This contains one million yen and it's your prize if I lose our new bet. Healing me is my prize and by the way I expect it done well when I figure out how you're cheating!"

During her investigation Cassiopeia notices that a special guest of her's has arrived. He is a shorter man named Zaiaku who possesses the Bramble Vest stand which uses a person's guilt against them. As the investigation is going on Zairyo has begun to undo his transformation but Taric can't tell why. Taking a few sniffs in the air Cass begins to smell smoke before Zaiaku tells her that her house is now on fire. It turns out that a magnifying glass the mangaka was using to inspect the dice caused the blaze. This gives the Fated a chance to get the Living Forge alien away before the approaching fire truck sirens could make him too sick. The next morning while riding a bus Taric sees what might as well be a medusa sitting near the front considering her stare is petrifying.

Cassiopeia- "Hello Taric."

Taric- "Oh hello Cassiopeia sensai. Uhhh are you okay?"

Cassiopeia- "Yeah it's just my entire living room was on fire when you left! So go on ahead and sit next to me." (Pats the seat)

Taric- "No. No I'm good. Just gonna sit a few rows back."

Cassiopeia- "Do you really think that will help you?"

Ten minutes into this awkward bus ride the two stand users enter a tunnel when Cassiopeia notices something outside the window. Amongst the pipes lining the tunnels a doorway appears and through it the Serpent's Embrace user spots a man standing over a woman's body. As soon as the stranger cuts of the victims hand the mangaka immediately stands up to tell Taric who ignores her thinking she is messing with him. A few hours later while riding her sportbike into the tunnel to check for the room Cass begins to have some stray thoughts.

Cassiopeia- 'Huh neat I passed a vespa and it looked like the woman got a sticker from the hotel. Ah Italy I wanna go there someday and maybe I can ask the Gucci people about why my grandmother's purse is weird. Oh here's that door.'

Cass opens the door to find the room she saw but notices that no one is inside. Stepping into the room the woman instantly gets a feeling that she needs to leave as the pitter patter of feet pursue her. Escaping on her bike she notices that it's not just the sound of feet but literal ones with clawed toes floating behind her. Once Cassiopeia reaches past sixty kph she is able to outpace the mysterious stand but is forced to make a quick turn to evade an incoming truck. In that momentary break of speed the mangaka is latched onto by the attacking swarm. Using The Serpent's Embrace she is able to learn the stand is called The Uncaged Wrath of Zaun while said stand turns into a large werewolf creature. The lycanthrope's entire body is covered in dark purple and black checkered fur and it's right hand is covered in a gauntlet that leads to an empty glass tank on the back which gives it a cybernetic feeling. As Cassiopeia desperately tries to read more information on the creature a clawed hand phases into her body. From this pain and her body growing exhausted the woman is able to learn that the stand can drain people of energy and nutrients. From outside the tunnel Cass hears the voice of Taric before the artist is dragged back into the mysterious room.

Cassiopeia- "What the hell is this room? Why is it so special to you?"

?- "My stand is projecting the room by inducing fear based illusions. My guess is because you're not just some regular human you must have been affected more."

Taric- (Entering the tunnel) "Cassiopeia I saw your bike crashed and was wondering if you were alright!"

?- "Listen up. I'm going to dive into your back to hide and when he comes near the room I want you to lure him inside. That way my stand can jump onto him. If you do this then I will let you go."

Cassiopeia- "I really don't like him and I would be let go?"

Taric- (Finds the doorway) "There you are Cassiopeia. But wait what's this door doing here? What is this place?"

?- "He's being cautious. I promise you that if you lure him inside I will let you go."

Cassiopeia- "Being bait would be the smart thing to do but… I refuse. Taric the enemy stand in holding onto me and you have to get away from here!"

Taric- (Steps inside) "As if I'd listen to you. Beside where is this guy I'm sure I can take him."

As a cluster of feet spring from Cassiopeia the mangaka uses her stand to make Taric fly out of the tunnel. Using The Shield of Valoran the teen is able to repair the bike before the hunter stand can catch up to him. Seeing the speed limit of the automatic stand the Fated creates as much of a gap that he can before coming to a payphone. Before the teen can even put in the money needed the cluster of clawed feet teleports nearby. As the horde is busy regaining the scent Taric rides off and realizes he needs to get a cell phone if he wants to stand a chance. A minute or so passes by when the pitter patter of feet nears the alternate aspect who is trying to avoid traffic. Needing to run a quickly approaching red light the boy notices a mother and baby crossing the road.

Taric- "Shit I can't slow down. Shield! (Summons his stand) Break it!"

Clutching her child the mother fails to notice the teenager and motorcycle parts flying overhead. With the pedestrians avoided and out of the way Taric then uses his power to fix the bike before he hits the ground. The Fated then winds up ruining a couple of days such as taking the phone of a businessman who was about to make a one billion yen deal but said phone was too flimsy so he also took a better phone from a man about to propose. At Sonata's house the bluenette is basically dragging his old dog to try to get it to go for a walk when the phone starts to ring. With contact with his friend made Taric then starts to ask if the sound stand user could investigate if anything had happened in the tunnel that the automatic stand comes from. While waiting for an answer Taric notices he has made his way to the town warehouse and dock district which means he is running out of room to drive. He is forced to make a risky turn to avoid driving into the ocean but finds himself heading towards a different edge. Using it's mace the support stand stabs the concrete wall of a nearby building before helping it's user come to a stop near the edge of the dock. Before the cluster of feet can reach them the teen has his stand fix the broken stone into a wall in front of them. This temporarily confused the Uncaged Wrath to the point it reforms into it's humanoid form to get around the barricade only to find no one there. It quickly catches the trail again and follows the pompadour wearing teen into the culvert he just escaped into.

Taric- "Okay so this thing is like a mosquito since it can't really see me while I'm running from it but rather it relies on it's other senses. (His bike slows down) Crap did I break it?! Shield! (Summons his stand) Wait so this isn't a mechanical issue then (Shield removes the gas cap) oh phew don't scare me like that. I thought it was something serious but it's just I've run out of gas. (Sees a car outside the culvert) This is no issue at all. (Crashes the bike and is sent flying) Still no issue."

Having his stand punch open the car Taric is able to set a newly thought of plan into motion. First he has the Shield of Valoran pull him safely from the air into the care where he waits for the werewolf feet to come after him. As it pounces at him to put the teen under duress The Fated opens the door behind him before slamming it shut to act as a barrier. With all the feet inside of the car the support stand then fixes the vehicle to act as a prison before siphoning the car's fuel into the recently repaired bike. This however leaves Taric with the new problem of not know where he is but luckily Sonata calls to tell him where to go. A few minutes later at the hospital the bluenette is currently trying to negotiate with a nurse which room the enemy stand user is in.

Sonata- "Please ma'am can you tell me where the guy who crashed in the nearby tunnel is staying? It's an emergency."

Nurse Minami- (Sips some tear) "Can't you read the sign? (It says visiting hours are done) Or perhaps you need to see a doctor about your eyes which in that case come back in the morning."

Sonata- "But…"

Minami- "Look kid aren't you a bit of a runt to be in a biker gang? Seriously you're so short I can't help but wonder if your feet can even reach the ground while on one. Now get your scrawny ass out of here so I can finish my shift." (Opens a magazine)

Sonata- (Walks away) "Act 3." (Summons his stand)

Maven- "Okay summoner let's kill the hoe! (Crescendo) Beetch!"

Hearing a rumbling behind her Minami is barely able to stop several glass jars filled with expensive medicines from falling. However upon touching the medications she starts to feel like they way hundreds of kilograms. Hanging by the doorway Sonata begins to taunt the woman about needing help as he is sure her superiors might fire her if the glass containers break. In desperate need of help the nurse tells the boy that the motorcyclist name is Warwick and he is in room 525. Hearing a motorcycle from outside getting closer Sonata sees Taric crash through glass that makes up the hospital entrance. Flinging himself off the sport bike into an open elevator The Fated is told where to go by his friend before slamming the doors shut. A few feet manage to get caught in the metal doors but a quick Crescendo frees the lift of any unwanted passengers. Getting out the pompadour wearing teen sees the room he needs to get too but also from a nearby vent several feet have followed. Even with his stands incredible speed and power the Uncaged Wrath of Zaun is able to latch onto Taric before he collapses into his destination. Lying in a hospital bed is a well built man surrounded by several of his fangirls from his motorcycle racing career. His name is Warwick and his stand which has manifested into it's werewolf form has pinned down Taric to drain his nutrients from him. With his prey locked down the popular guy turns his attention to his groupies who each try to get his attention but to be honest don't mind sharing him. When one of them tries to get him a peach however Warwick with his recently obtained super sense of smell is able to tell it is rotten before she can even peel it. The hospitalized man then begins to notice the smell of adrenaline which he is quick to attribute to one of his girls who isn't getting as much attention.

Warwick- "Well if it isn't one of you then who is mad?" (A shadow covers him)

Taric- "That would be me!" 'I think I'm about to channel my inner Caleb.'

Warwick- "But wait my stand already drained you until you couldn't move (Taric reveals a tube) Wait a second you were drinking my IV?! 'Idiot my stand still has your scent' (Has it lunge)

Taric- (Shield punches Ww leg) "My name is Taric Daiyamondo. My stand is called The Shield of Valoran and it's power is the ability to heal and protect but it can also beat the shit out of people who piss me off. Even though I've never measured it I'd say it can go at least 300 kilometers per hour. Much faster than some hum ho 60."

Warwick- "Hehehe just wait a second you wouldn't beat up someone who is injured right? After all punching a guy who can't fight back cause of a broken spine isn't very manly. Hell I already let go of your friend in the tunnel so I'm sure you can heal her now."

Taric- "*Sigh* Yeah beating up an injured guy would be unmanly… but that's why I already healed you. (Warwick moves his arms) So now that you are all healed up that makes this a fair fight right?!"

Warwick- (Realizes what's happening) "Oh shit!"

One Bravado infused beatdown later Warwick is sent flying out of his rooms window with the warning that if he uses his stand to heal himself again then Taric promises to come back and kick his ass over and over again. Feeling refreshed The Fated meets up with his predecessor at the tunnel to help Cassiopeia who promptly scolds the teen for not listening to her earlier. Meanwhile Sonata was able to get home and finally convince his dog to go for a walk. On the opposite side of town a man in a new white business suit is struggling to find his house key. When the black haired man finally makes it inside his redhead wife is sitting in a chair while trying to get a rise out of him. She has decided not to make him any food since he has been missing for the past few days with no explanation. To be honest the woman has been growing distraught about her marriage ever since her husband has become so distant ever since he has been stressing more and more about his career. What surprises Hana though is when she hears the radio turned on before her husband, Yuuto, starts cooking for what feels like the first time in their twelve year marriage.

Yuuto- (Sits in a chair) "I wasn't sure what you'd like so I made some simple chicken curry." (Puts his hands over his face)

Hana- "I have never seen you cook before and you want me to think you can suddenly (Tries it) wow this is actually pretty good."

Yuuto- "I think I'll take a shower and sorry I was away for so long I had to make a business trip on short notice."

As Yuuto is heading upstairs a child who hasn't even hit double digit age walks into the house mumbling about video recording times. A bit put off by the strange kid who is mentioned to be his son the business man makes his way into the washroom.

Ziggs- (Feeling the water) 'This is all those two assholes fault I'm here! (Punches the wall) Damn you Taric and Caleb. Because of you two I have to put up with this persona I had to take and now I can't do what I enjoy anymore.'

The next day the disguised Ziggs is woken up by a cat making noise outside of a nearby window. When he makes his way to it his new wife rushes past him to let the stray inside before scolding him for closing the window. He apologizes before making his way downstairs to answer the front door where the landlord is angrily waiting. Apparently Yuuto was a couple of months behind on payments for the house and now Hana needs Ziggs to get the money from a private safe. Needing to give the man some money quickly and not knowing the combination the hidden killer decides to use his stand to his advantage. Since the landlord is unable to see The Hexplosives Expert he also fails to notice the stand take something from his bag.

Yuuto- "Look when I said I didn't have enough money to pay you I meant for the next year. (Pulls out a stack of cash) Here is enough money for the months we owe and for the next five months." (Hands it over)

Landlord Souta- "Oh well I'm terribly sorry sir. (Rubs his neck) I do hope you have a nice day and do forgive me again for being rude." (Leaves)

Hana- 'I don't know how but he took the landlord's money and tricked him. (Yuuto turns to her) What he did was so underhanded and sneaky but I I can't help but fall for him. It's just like when we first met.' (Starts blushing a little)

A couple of days spent trying to get her husband to spend some time alone time with her later, Hana is cleaning the basement when she hears some move. Sitting on a lone cushion in the corner is a new stray cat with bright yellow eyes and gray fur that has just gotten out of the rain outside. After using some of her usual tricks to get along with the cat all Hana gets in return is the feline hissing in annoyance. When the cat jumps at the woman to scratch her the housewife smacks away her attacker with a broom. Unfortunately the stray slams into a shelf which causes a glass vase on it to fall and break before the shards fatally stab the feline. Deeply saddened the redhead runs out of the basement to find her husband returning home and tells him what happened. Taking it upon himself to get rid of the body Ziggs notices that the cat had a strange hole in it's neck that wasn't made by the glass. The next day in the backyard a small purple anemone pops out of the ground where the cat was buried. What makes this flora strange is it has two blue cat like eyes attached to it via eye stalks and even a few other feline feature such as a small nose.

Anemone- "Meow meow where am I? Hmm I am normally not really able to think like this meow meow. (Wiggles a bit) Why can't I move?! Wait I remember now that lady hit me with a broom and then it hurt for a bit before everything went dark." (Lady walks outside)

Still feeling a bit depressed by the stray cat's death Hana steps outside for some fresh air. Seeing the woman who killed him the animal plant hybrid begins to feel the air around him change before firing something invisible at the woman. Suddenly the redhead feels her left toe being crushed to the point her nail comes off. As the housewife is screaming in pain Yuuto runs outside to see what is wrong with her. She quickly expresses how the cat's spirit must have cursed her before the man notices the strange plant where he buried the feline. Going in to have a closer look Ziggs notices that the plant is acting a bit like a cat and deduces it must be a stand user. Scratching the flower's head it begins to purr before remembering it's target is nearby.

Ziggs- 'Well it doesn't seem to be hostile to me so I don't see any reason to get rid of it.'

Hana- (Gets up) "Be careful around there dear. I got too close and my toe got … "

As Hana was getting up she if hit in the chest by a sphere of air and slammed into a nearby wall. Anemone hears a quick thought in it's head telling it the power it has is called Eye of the Storm. With his fake wife unconscious Ziggs decides that the plant is too hostile to leave around.

Ziggs- (Anemone attacks) "Oh no you don't I know your trick now. Hexplosives Expert! (His stand blocks) You are using air bubbles to attack and now (HE touches a nearby rock) Satchel Charge! Switch on! (Makes his hand a detonator) Die. (Press it) What? (Press it again) No way my bombs are never duds."

Hissing at his new target Anemone simply smacks away the bomb infused rock before letting it safely detonate. Since the feline can control air it was able to stop the incendiary bomb from going off. Seeing his attack fail Ziggs quickly switches to plan B which involves stomping the damned flower but this also fails when a new bubble acts like a shield. But even The Hexplosives Expert is unable to crush the shield before another air bubble is launched. Expecting another frontal attack Ziggs is unprepared for when a nearby cactus explodes and fires needles everywhere.

Ziggs- 'Shit is Hana okay? (Looks at her) Good she's not been hit by any needles but why the hell do I care. No I don't care about her I care because if she or the boy died then it would lure those Fated fools here. (Feels a stab) What was that?'

Looking at his arm Ziggs notices a bubble has managed to work it's way into his veins. While not a doctor the killer has heard that if a human has more than ten cc of oxygen in their bloodstream it can cause a block that can lead to death.

Ziggs- "Damn it I need to keep it from my heart! (Tries to squeeze it out but fails) Shit! Hexplosives Expert!"

Using a small explosion the hidden murder is able to release the fatal bubble from his body. Seeing the plant about to fire another bubble Ziggs has to think quickly about what to do next before he gets an idea. Anemone notices the man throw something near it and to the cat's delight it is a ping pong ball which the feline stand user begins to play with. When Hana wakes up later that day she is told by Yuuto that she fainted in the garden. As she begins to question about the cat the man mentions he moved the body somewhere else which calms her. This is of course before her husband goes to check on something upstairs and when Ziggs believes no one is looking heads into the attic to see his freshly potted guest sleeping. A couple of weeks pass with no real incidents but as always there is a quiet before the storm. On the day of July fifteenth a series of conflicts begin all over town with the first one involving the alien know as Zairyo inviting Taric and Kassadin to check out a transmission tower. When the trio make their way to the edge of town they see the abandoned construct has various furnishing on it. A blur amongst the steel comes to a stop near a makeshift house near the top and is revealed to be a woman. She catches a fish that is launched high into the air from the nearby river and using her bungee cords moves quickly to a cooking station some ten meters below. On the way down however one of cords snaps which cuts the other line sending the orange haired woman falling from well over twenty meters off the ground. Before any of the boys can reach her though she manages to her broken cords attached to her and use them with the harness to create a makeshift grappling hook. With it she is able to swing on a rung a enough to actual perform a sort of midair flip onto beam it was attached to. Now that her record of not touching the ground in three year, five months, and twenty two days is still intact the lady takes note of how the young stand users have been lured to her as planned.

Taric- "Are you alright? (Admires the tower house) What's your name?"

?- "Well it's a good thing you didn't get sent here by brother Stevan or I would have had to chase you off. As for your questions yes I am alright and Camille Ferros."

Kassadin- "We can see all the machinery and stuff you have around the place, it's amazing. I mean you have pretty much everything you could want here."

Camille- "I do keep it running quite smoothly but I don't need any of you three or your pity."

Taric- "Why would we pity you?"

Camille- "Because everyone who comes here typically knows about me as the woman with no legs."

Hiking her gray fatigues the teens are able to see a pair of prosthetic legs in place of her real ones. Tired of being in a tank top in front of guest the woman pulls a nearby cord which causes a green button up shirt to float down near her. Taric while checking out the tower notices something caught on the side of the tower which upon looking closer is a photo.

Taric- "What the?" (Begins to walk forward)

Camille- (Finishes buttoning up) "I wouldn't come any closer to the tower."

Ignoring the warning the Fated walks closer before the photo leaps off revealing Zigg's father. The ghost explains that the trap went off without a hitch and that Taric will be taken out of the picture one way or another. Before the teen can flee the tower Camille pulls out a pair of custom made grappling hooks from her pant pockets and uses them to slingshot herself onto the wires connecting her tower house to another transmission tower several dozen meters away. When Taric attempts to leave from under the tower his body begins to turn into solid metal before being flung back under the center of the tower.

Camille- "In case you were wondering why you can't leave it's because of my stand The Steel Shadow. It's actually bound to this entire tower and whoever is the last person underneath it gets targeted by Hextech Ultimatum so they can never leave. Oh and don't even think of killing me to end it because unlike you my stand is completely autonomous so even if I die this thing will stay around."

Taric- "Just wait until I get up there and drag you back in here! (His friends come close) No wait if any of you get in here then you'll risk being trapped."

Zairyo- "Is there any way I can help?"

Kassadin- "Not unless you can turn into dynamite or something to blow up this thing."

Zairyo- "I can not. My shapeshifting doesn't allow me to turn into something complex or that exerts more power than my base form can."

Kassadin- (Walks forward) "Then just stand back. Hehehe Taric did you forget who we are? (Summons his stand) We have two punch ghost that can easily bash tear this tower to pieces."

Taric- (Summons his stand) "Naw I was just waiting for you to get the same idea as me."

Using The Shield of Valoran and The Void Walker the duo begin to punch away at one of the tower's legs. The ensuing barrage is fierce enough to almost shake Camille off of the wire she is using to escape but before the teens can finish the first leg a ringing sound begins to go off. From where the friends smashed the tower a cone shaped wave of energy attacks both stand users.

Taric- (Lowers his defense) "Shit! What was that?"

Kassadin- (Clutching his stomach) "Damn it. Taric I wasn't able to shield myself from that attack."

Camille- (Hanging from a wire) "Yeah I wouldn't recommend hitting the tower since it has this habit of launching back the damage it takes! As for you Taric I'd really consider getting someone to take your place unless you wanted another Tactical Sweep to hit you plus this tower is pretty durable considering it has Adaptive Defenses!"

Taric- (Heals Kass) "I am gonna drag your ass back into this tower!"

Camille- "How pray tell are you going to do that exactly?"

Zairyo- (Emerges from the wire) "Perhaps I can help."

Camille- "Where did come from?!"

Zairyo- "My species can become objects so I simply took the form of the wire you were using to escape. You can surrender now and help Taric find Ziggs or we can force you help."

Camille- "Go to hell!"

Using hidden blades attached to her artificial legs Camille cuts the wire her alien foe has taken the form of. Zairyo does mention though that while he fused with the now cut wire attacks like that wouldn't harm him. Seeing this as a challenge Ferros simply takes out several small knives from her pocket and throws them. She misses the shapeshifter but still smiles knowing her objective will be completed soon. Taric from ground level is able to see what is happening when the knives begin to ricochet all over the tower. Eventually The Steel Shadow shoot the blades with enough force to stab through Zairyo's arm which pins him to one of the beams.

Taric- "Zairyo don't worry I'll be up there and heal you!" (Picks up the cut wire)

Zairyo- "No don't! I'll stay behind if it means you can leave. You told me that a killer plaques your town and that he uses a stand. It only makes sense that I stay behind and you leave."

Taric- (Fixes the wire) "You could have at least a little faith in me. (Begins to float with the wire) After I don't break promises to beat down people."

Healing his friend on the way up Taric finds Camille who seems to have changed her face for their fight as it now has two lines going down the cheeks and the whites of her eyes have turned black. Knowing her foe's range and how devastating her can be within it Ferros uses her Hookshot and acrobatic abilities to avoid the teen's attacks. The two eventually make it to the top of the tower when The Steel Shadow's user mentions while she was climbing and flipping up the tower she was cutting it as well. From all around him the student is bombarded by energy bolts that despite him blocking some force him to slip and almost fall off the tower. Using The Shield of Valoran as an extension of his body Taric is barely able avoid plummeting down. As the redhead leaps down to stab Taric off the boy ask his best friend how many attacks he managed to block.

Kassadin- "Umm I think you blocked five!"

Camille- "Your stand has the power to fix things and restore them so what could you have possibly repaired? Not that it matter since you're about to die. (Raises her leg) I guess fighting me was a mistake since winning is (Several bolts hit her face) impo… impossible, (Falls off) Ahhhhhh!" (Hits the ground)

Taric- (Climbs back up) "I simply restored the energy bolts you launched out and they eventually came back to where I blocked them."

Back on the ground and coming to Camille finds herself back inside of The Steel Shadow alone. Appreciative that the trio of outsiders took the time to make sure she was okay and not taking the chance to kill her the woman helps to patch up Taric as much as possible.

Camille- "I thought that I was ready to rejoin the outside world but to be honest I forgot how much I like it here at my tower. I can't apologize enough for attempting to kill, maim, and imprison you all."

Taric- "Yeah this isn't the first time we've been in a fight to the death and you seem repentive enough. Besides why are you in this tower anyways? Did your stand trap you here?"

Camille- (Sits down) "No, I've actually lived here for over five years. As for why I was with my boyfriend Hakim and we got into an accident that killed him and took my legs. So I've lived here in this tower I helped made. I know it might seem like poor timing and taste but I'm sorry for your losses as well."

Kassadin- "Who did we lose? We never told you about ourselves."

Camille- "I thought you might have heard which is why you came all the way out hear but Sonata encountered another stand user like me and lost this morning."

Taric- "Who is he?"

Camille- "I don't know but I overheard his stand involves paper and fear."

While Zairyo decides to stick around the tower Kassadin runs into town without Taric to desperately search for their friend. Meanwhile Cassiopeia is being visited by a rather strange interior designer who is willing to crab walk up stairs for some reason. As Taric reaches his destination he just hopes that the person he has come looking for is willing to help.

A/N I fucking lied about getting this out quick plus it's the shortest of all the parody chapters. Well shit I got bogged down by all sorts of stuff and lacked time to write. Hell the Part 5 anime came out before this did. Anyways I hope you all liked this, please vote in the poll you can access by going to my profile and clicking the link, hope you all are enjoying your lives, and I will do what I can with the plans I have been making for next chapter since the fights in this part are really short sometimes so it's hard to go really in detail. By the way I'd like it if some of you told me which stand skin you all like the most and maybe a stand you are excited to see. Anyway see you all later and I hope you all enjoy plus maybe check out my oneshot Lulu and Gnar's Spooky Special for the holidays coming up.
