Chapter 27: When Venom Bites Back, Part 1
Jordin was following Taiyo outside in the night.
"Where are you taking me?" Jordin asked.
"To the rooftops here." Taiyo replied.
"And what for?"
"To help Yoshiro."
Jordin and Taiyo then arrived on the rooftops. Taiyo climbed up first and looked at the moon.
"The moon isn't a full moon." Taiyo said. "Walking On The Sun could have made this problem easier, but the clouds are covering it AND only half of the moon is showing…"
Jordin climbed up to meet up with Taiyo on the rooftops.
"What a view." Jordin said. "This is totally gonna get us in trouble… Maybe not… But still…"
"Hey, it's ok… It's one time for tonight… Now, since we're up here, your Stand, Hybrid Theory… It can split itself into two, right?" Taiyo asked.
"Yes." Jordin replied. "Wait, you wanted me to use one of the Theories split to track down that reptilian asshole?"
"Of course!"
"But… If I have to, then I have to use the other Theory split…"
"Well it's the only way to help."
Jordin sighs as Hybrid Theory emerged.
"Alright then…" Jordin said. "Hybrid Theory! Split!"
Hybrid Theory then split itself into Left Theory and Right Theory. Left Theory then stands next to Jordin and performs its search to find Doku. Right Theory, not moving stands guard.
"Left Theory is a long distance Stand." Jordin said. "It can attack far away enemies from here. Right Theory, like the original Hybrid Theory is still a close range Stand and it's more powerful than the original Hybrid Theory."
"Interesting…" Taiyo said. "Yes! This is perfect for finding that snake man that killed my brother!"
The Left Theory then walks to the other side of the rooftop.
"You see someone over there?" Taiyo asked.
"Left Theory can make me sense where the target is at from here, since it moved to another spot." Jordin said. "So far… Nothing, yet."
Back outside of the pharmacy, Hatsuki searches for Koru.
"Where is she?!" She said as she heard hissing. "Ah!"
On the rooftop of the pharmacy, Koru sees Doku slithering up to her.
"Knew you would be here." Koru said.
"Did you tell them that I was "gonna be at Midori Park" or something?" Doku asked.
"Yes. That lie totally made them fall for it!"
"I suppose so… Now, take care of that girl down there. I got Yoshiro."
"Heh heh… Right on it."
Koru then jumps down from the roof to be at the side of the pharmacy. Hatsuki then spotted Koru with Pretty Reckless and walked away from her to keep distance.
"Pretty smart move." Koru said as she walked towards Hatsuki. "Keep running because until now you'll end in a corner which is perfect for Pretty Reckless to paralyze you!"
Hatsuki then straightened her glasses. Her Grenade Jumpers then appeared next to her.
"You think I'm gonna run away?" Hatsuki said. "I don't think so!"
Grenade Jumpers then fired their bullets at Koru. Koru took all 3 of the bullets.
"GAAH!" Koru shouted as she still stood up. "Heh heh heh! HA HA HA! My Pretty Reckless can't be destroyed by your bullets!"
Hatsuki smiled.
"Were they even bullets though?" Hatsuki said.
"What?" Koru said. "What the hell are you even on about?"
"What if I tell you that the bullets I fired from my Grenade Jumpers didn't really hit you? I can tell that you were faking it. Because those bullets hit your Pretty Reckless."
"You're kidding?!"
Koru then looks at the bullets still being able to push through Pretty Reckless.
"Shit! If they end up going through my Pretty Reckless, then I'm fucked!" Koru shouted as she then felt the bullets going through Pretty Reckless and touching her skin. "NOW I'M FUCKED!"
The bullets explode, damaging Koru. She fell to the ground.
"Argh.." She grunted. "I'm still alive… But, I'm slowly dying… This is the end of me… Doku… I'm sorry…"
Pretty Reckless then faded back to Koru's mind. Koru was then seen laying on the ground, dead.
"And she's gone…" Hatsuki said.
Hatsuki then looks at Jordin and Taiyo running towards her.
"Jordin! Taiyo!" Hatsuki said. "What are you two doing?"
"Where's Yoshiro?" Taiyo said.
"He's in the pharmacy with Reiko-"
Then they heard someone make a loud hissing and screech. They saw Doku in Snake-Eyed Sissy launching himself down towards them. Hybrid Theory then launched him away with a punch. Doku slowly got up.
"He's still up and ready." Jordin said. "Let's go to Yoshiro! Quickly!"
Jordin and his friends then rush into the pharmacy. Doku got up and looked at Koru.
"Koru…" Doku said. "You tried… But you failed…"
