Chapter 7: Northern Kraków's Raid, Part 2

~FLASHBACK OCCURRED TO MAY 24TH, 2022~

Kwiat Filipowski was another citizen of Poland and was another one of those that were gathered to save Poland from The Bad Blood Organization. Her life wasn't like Jolanta's though. She had experienced two problems from the age of 17. The first problem was her dad's passing on May 24th. Her father was the reason why she and her mother were happily in-sync as a family. Without his support, the family would fall apart.

~MAY 25TH, 2022~

This is where Kwiat's 2nd problem comes in. She would have arguments with her mother over the littlest things possible. Her mother always makes them a big deal.

~MAY 26TH, 2022~

On one night, Kwiat was stressed after school. She tried to study, but her mother kept telling her to do different things.

"I want you to take out the trash." She said.

"Can't you just wait?" Kwiat said. "I'm doing homework."

"Homework?! Your school still gives out homework when summer is approaching?!"

"This is life, mom!"

Kwiat's mom then pushed away Kwiat's work.

"Why did you do that?!" Kwiat said.

"Because I'm the mom! I get to do whatever the hell I want in this house!" Kwiat's mom shouted. "Now take out the damn trash!"

Kwiat sighed.

"Fine…" Kwiat said.

After taking out the trash, Kwiat headed inside the kitchen to wash her hands.

"Hey, do the dishes now." Kwiat's mom said. "You're near the sink."

Kwiat then looked at the dishes as she saw that there were only 5 plates.

"I'm on it…" Kwiat said.

While doing the dishes, Kwiat accidentally dropped the sponge.

"Shit…" Kwiat said as she picks up the soap.

"Language!" Kwiat's mom shouted.

"I'm not a child, mom! I'm almost an adult!"

"So what?!"

Kwiat stops doing the dishes.

"It's not even much…" Kwiat said. "We could have at LEAST wait a few more days to do them together!"

Kwiat's mom walks towards her.

"I don't need your pity." She said to Kwiat. "Like I said, I'm the mom, and I get to do whatever I want to you!"

Kwiat's mom then smacked her in the face.

"Go to your room." She said. "NOW."

Kwiat then looks at her mom with a serious look.

"No." Kwiat said. "I WILL NOT LET YOU HURT ME!"

Kwiat then pushed her mom to the hall of the kitchen to the living room, knocking her down.

"I don't need you, mom…" Kwiat said. "Dad's passing messed you up… Without his love, you've changed… I'm done with you…"

Kwiat then steps out the door to the out back.

"And don't even think about finding me…" Kwiat said. "I can take care of myself…"

Kwiat then steps out and leaves her mother alone.

"Kwiat…" She said. "What have I done?"

~7:30PM~

Kwiat was sitting near a diner, looking at the sky.

"I'm hungry…" Kwiat said. "But… I got no money… I'm not returning to mom… She's gonna make this shit worse…"

A woman walks over to Kwiat.

"Hey! Give me your money!" She shouted.

"I have no money!" Kwiat shouted.

"Well I'll just check!"

The woman then pushed Kwiat down to the ground and checked her belongings, only to find a watch on her wrist.

"This'll do." She said to Kwiat as she then kicks her in her hip. "Bye bye!"

The woman then walks away.

"F-Fuck…" Kwiat said as she slowly started to cry. "I shouldn't have given her the watch…"

~8PM~

A man walks by to see Kwiat. He was almost the same age as Kwiat. He approached her.

"Are you ok?" He said to Kwiat.

"No… It's a long story…" Kwiat replied. "Can I tell you?"

"Sure… What is it?"

A few minutes later, Kwiat told the man her story on what had happened.

"Oh my… I'm so sorry…" He said. "Do you want to come live in a house next down the street frok mine? We can be allies…"

"Yes! Please!" Kwiat shouted.

"Ok, ok… Come on… Do you need to eat something?"

"YES! TAKE ME ALREADY!"

"Calm down! Wipe the tears off of your eyes… We're going home…"

~8:10PM~

Kwiat and her new friend arrived at his house.

"Do you have a name?" Kwiat asked.

"My name is Rostek." Rostek replied. "Here, let me talk to my Dad real quick."

"Dad…"

A few minutes later, Rostek let Kwiat inside his house. His father already told her about the house down the street for her to live in. It was empty and had no one else living in it, but it was worth it for Kwiat.

~2 YEARS LATER~

Kwiat was an adult now. She, Rostek and 2 other allies formed a team to help with what Poland was going through under the raids. In order to do that, they all obtained Stands through a fragment that gave their fingers a cut. Kwiat gained a Stand through that and it was known as Sound Garden.

~FLASHBACK END~

Kwiat was in a pickle now that Jolanta was under Radio Head's control.

"Shit! Shit!" Kwiat shouted. "Ok! Don't panic, Kwiat… You can do this! You can save Jolanta…"

Cherry Bomb then appeared next to Jolanta.

"Wh-What the?! It can also fight with Cherry Bomb?!" Kwiat shouted. "Now this is bullshit!"

Emil then watches it from behind a brick structure with trees on top of it.

"Sweet! Radio Head controlled that silver haired girl!" Emil said. "And she's got a Stand, which will make this fight easier!"

Kwiat then got Sound Garden.

"Ok… Sound Garden, attack that mask!" Kwiat shouted.

Sound Garden then punched Radio Head.

"FUCK!" Emil shouted. "IT HURTS!"

Kwiat then heard Emil from behind the brick structures.

"That's the User, huh?" Kwiat said as she then sees Radio Head disappearing from Jolanta. "Jolanta! Are you alright?!"

Jolanta was dizzy.

"Oh God…" Jolanta said. "That Stand… Where's the User at?!"

"Follow me." Kwiat said with a smile. "I know from the damage I dealt to not only him from his Stand."

Jolanta then followed Kwiat to see Emil.

"GAAH!" Emil shouted. "Shit! It's you girls! Well! Looks like this battle got more interesting!"

Radio Head then fully showed itself.

"This will NOT back me down!" Emil shouted as Radio Head then attached itself to Emil, using it's radio face as a mask.

"Did he just use his Stand on himself?!" Jolanta shouted.

"Well looks like we'll stop his Stand and then defeat his sorry ass!" Kwiat shouted.

Cherry Bomb and Sound Garden both appeared to attack Emil and Radio Head, but Emil dodged the attacks and got out a gun to shoot it at Jolanta, but Cherry Bomb deflected the bullet back to Emil at his left shoulder. Emil kneeled. Jolanta and Kwiat approached him, but Radio Head escaoed from Emil.

"I may have been shot, but I'm still gonna attack you!" Emil shouted as Radio Head prepared its fist for a direct attack on Jolanta. "TAKE THIS!"

Cherry Bomb then blocked Radio Head's punch with her punch.

"G...Good… I needed that." Jolanta said. "I needed that to happen."

"Eh? All I did was trying to attack you!" Emil said as he then smelled something burning. "What's that smell?"

Emil then looks down to see gasoline.

"No way… Ogi! Is that what you're doing?!" Emil shouted.

"Actually, it was my doing." Jolanta replied. "This is also something my Cherry Bomb can do by shooting it out from her palms. Once you're in contact with this strange liquid of a gasoline, you'll be slowly experiencing tiny explosions from the tip of your toes all the way to your hips.

Emil was shocked.

"GAAAH! RADIO HEAD! GET THE LIQUID AWAY FROM ME!" Emil shouted.

"Too late! The gasoline is already stuck on your shoes!" Jolanta shouted. "I will then say the magic word for the explosion to take effect, which will be in sync with Cherry Bomb's snap from her finger!"

Emil was scared.

"PL-PLEASE! DON'T DO IT!" Emil shouted.

Jolanta takes a deep breath.

"Boom." Jolanta said.

Cherry Bomb then snapped its fingers at the same time Jolanta said boom, causing the tiny explosions to occur from Emil's from his toes to his hips.

"AAAAAAAH!" Emil shouted as he was then killed from the tiny explosions below his lower body.

"Holy shit! You got him!" Kwiat shouted.

"Yes… Thanks for the assistant…" Jolanta said.

"What? What assistant?"

"You freed me from his Stand when it got me and you found the User right here after he took damage while I was in control."

"Oh. Heh heh… It's nothing…"

"Anyway, we should be finding your friends, if that's what we should."

"Oh! Yes! I hope one of them is around here now that we're in Northern Kraków."

Jolanta and Kwiat then walked their way out of the town square.

Ogi, in the shadows, looks at Emil being taken in an ambulance.

"Yes, boss." He said. "Emil is defeated. He is no longer part of us… The girl with silver hair blew his lower body to smithereens…"

Ogi was silent.

"I see… Jolanta Joswiak is that girl's name, huh? And you called the others that are part of this plan to go straight to Plan B if this raid doesn't go well?" Ogi said. "...I see… You wanted me to do that? Heh heh heh… HA HA HA! Don't worry, ma'am! I won't let you down!"

Ogi then ended the call.

"Looks like I'm gonna play with fire…" He said. "And as a former firefighter, this shouldn't be difficult…"
