Name: Okuyasu Nijimura

Stand name: The Hand

Appearance: Sleeked back black hair with the sides shaven. Usually wears a gray tank top, although if its cold, he does have a plaid jacket. He has tattoos on his arms, one arm has the dollar sign, and the other has the yen symbol. Wears blue baggy pants and black fashionable shoes.

Stand Ability: The Hand's right hand has 2 bulbs in the center of it, and if this specific hand touches anything, it will "Scrape" it away. Once this object is out of existence, the surrounding objects will slam together, as if nothing was removed. It can even swipe the air between Okuyasu and another object, giving him the ability to almost teleport. Not even Okuyasu knows where the objects The Hand erases will end up. The Hand is a very deadly stand with almost unlimited potential, but is limited by Okuyasu's straight forward attitude.

Has an affinity for comic books and old blues.

Without warning, The hand swiped its hand in the air again, and once again, the three are above a completely different building in what seemed like a blink of an eye. Josuke seemed used to this, but Angie was terrified. She kept her smile, but she couldn't believe what was happening. Other people having this sort of ability, and on top of that, ones that they can control. Why was Angie unfortunate enough to get this curse of an ability?

Eventually, the three were in an alley way, far away from the apartment complex.

"What the hell Okuyasu?" Josuke said, "We're obstructing justice by doing this, those officers were going to get Angie."

"And then what was going to happen Josuke?" Okuyasu replied, "Hopefully nothing, but what if Angie loses her cool, and kills all those officers, or worse, the cops realize whats going on and take fire at her?"

After a pause, Josuke nodded. Angie listened to all of this, and was horrified. She didn't think that she would be treated as some sort of hazardous object, she didn't mean to kill all of those people, but she's cursed to kill.

Josuke looked around to see where they were. They eventually found a street sign, and they realized they weren't far from Shizuka's home. Josuke leaded the party out of sight of Shizuka's home, not because he was worried, but if Shizuka saw them, she would of course follow. Finally, Josuke had time to think about the revelation that just hit him, a drug gave this woman a stand.

"How is this possible?" Josuke said, "The only ways I've seen people acquire stands are from the arrow, or if they're born with it. I got my stand after recovering from a horrible fever, so people can manifest one at some point in their lives. This has to be what happened to you Angie."

Angie nodded in agreement, although she didn't know what any of that meant. Angie doesn't know what a stand is, or what the arrow is. All she knows is that she got this cursed ability after injecting that drug.

"Can you tell me what exactly happened when you got this drug from the dealer?" Josuke said

Angie thought about it, and then spoke. "I drove to Albany about a week and a half ago go get my usual order from my dealer. My dealer is just one of a few in that area, and they work together. He has a deep voice and a tattoo of a pair of lips on his wrist. I'm sorry, but I couldn't get more of his appearance. After I bought what I usually get from him, he offered me this new drug that his friends came up with, and he offered me to try it for free. I was skeptical, but I took it. I didn't feel like even touching it until a week ago. After that, this all happened. I'm very confident that it was THAT drug that gave me this... thing."

"Does he have a usual spot?" Okuyasu asked, "Maybe we can go and see him, see what the hell is going on with this drug."

"He did," Angie said, "But he was murdered, found chopped in several pieces in an alley."

Josuke recalled seeing it on the news, a man found cut into 10 equal pieces scattered all across the alley. This connection shocked Josuke.

"Someone else wants the drug." Josuke said in realization. "Someone else knows about this drug. I still don't believe it, but this drug must have truly given Angie her stand, and someone else wants this drug."

"SO MUCH that he would cut a man into pieces?" Okuyasu said, "We've seen people do crazy things for their fix, but this is something different."

"Its not the fix Okuyasu, don't you see it?" Josuke said, "A drug that can give someone powerful abilities could seem very valuable, they want it for the power."

"But who is this person?" Okuyasu said, "We're completely helpless to do anything if we don't know the guy."

"I don't now." Josuke said, looking to the ground.

Suddenly, the three heard sirens, all across the area.

"Shit, they're looking for Angie." Josuke said

"They must have saw the broken window, and thought she ran away." Okuyasu said

"We have to keep moving." Josuke replied.

Josuke, Okuyasu, and Angie ran down the alley, but they heard the sirens approaching on that end, and the same for the other end. Josuke looked around frantically, before pulling out Crazy Diamond and punched the wooden fencing on the side. They walked through the debris, but before Angie could look back, the wooden fence was back exactly the way it was. There was a stone wall on the side of a building, and Josuke punched right through it, and then the next, and then the next. They weren't going around the buildings, or above them, they were going through them. Almost like magic, every wall Crazy Diamond punched through would go back to how it was, looking completely unharmed. They eventually found a staircase in one of the buildings, and ran up them and onto the roof. The light snow turned into a full blown blizzard, and it became difficult to even see the streets from the roof. It felt like they were on a building floating in the sky, and all they could see through the thick white of the cold slush was the sirens of police cruisers.

Their footprints laid fresh on the ground, almost a foot deep. Josuke noticed something strange though, a fourth set of foot prints, seemingly stopping just as Josuke looked at them. Josuke kicked some snow towards the prints, and heard a squeal and saw the snow stop in mid air when above the footprints. He then sighed

"Shizuka, what did I tell you?"
