NamingThingsIsHard - Yes, you got it! I did that because I like KHR, but also since Gio is half-Japanese Fiamma uses that greeting as a sign of their friendship and how close they are.

TheRealRohan - So her hair is covered with her eyes completely. She has an angled bob haircut, but its wavy rather than straight, with bangs that fully cover her eyes.

Black Sabbath - Who Relit the Flame?

Fiamma walked in front of Giorno making sure to keep his path clear. Giorno trailed behind her hunched over protecting the flame like it was his lifeline. When the two reached the campus Fiamma disappeared rushing off to Giorno's room. Girls were not allowed in the boy's dormitories, especially girls who didn't even attend this school. In order to get into Giorno's room, Fiamma had to sneak in without getting caught. Simple enough for a girl with an ability like hers.

Giorno entered his dorm room and opened the window. Not even a second later a bird flew in. The bird flapped its wings, then in a blink of an eye, its body morphed and shifted turning into Fiamma who landed on the bedroom floor in a crouched position.

Giorno let out a sigh of relief that they had gotten safely to the dorm, but his sigh caused a small breeze making the flame flicker. He had a little of a spastic reaction as the flame wavered.

"I've never seen you this on edge before," Fiamma said

Giorno ignored Fiamma looking around the room. Grabbing a loaf of bread he makes a hole in the center shoving the lighter in it. Then he gathers various objects from his desk creating a barrier so the flame would be protected from any rouge air shits.

"Now the lighter won't fall over, and even if the air moves, the flame will be protected," Giorno said

"Smart. So all we gotta really do is sit and watch it. I've got the night shift."

Fiamma sat on the floor stretching out before lying on her back closing her eyes.

"I'll make sure the window is locked so the wind can't blow it open."

Just as Giorno was about to lock the window the door to the room slowly started to open. Fiamma's eyes snapped open and she jumped to her feet, grabbing Giorno by the collar of his jacket as she hopped out the window. Fiamma might not have known who was coming into the room but she knew whoever it was wanted to sneak in without getting caught, that's why they so cautiously opened the door and didn't bother to knock either.

Giorno held onto a pipe right outside the window, while Fiamma was on the roof looking down into the room.

In walked a short-statured guy with silver hair, dressed in a school uniform.

"Do you know him, Giorno?" Fiamma questioned

"His name was...Koichi Hirose! I stole his luggage from the airport," Giorno said

"Ah, but how did he figure out your address?" Fiamma pondered

"He has one of those Stand's as well. He found me at the café and we had a small fight," Giorno said

"Ah, but is one of his powers the ability to locate random people's addresses?" Fiamma said

Koichi started searching through Giorno's stuff clearly looking for his stolen items. Opening the closet he spotted a blue suitcase. Thinking that maybe it was someone else's things Giorno had pilfered Koichi reached for it hoping to find some info so he could return the stolen suitcase.

Being just a bit too short to reach the suitcase Koichi jumped grabbing for it.

"Ah!" Koichi yelped as he knocked the suitcase down the object opening as it fell. One of the contents of the suitcase landed on Koichi's head blocking his vision. Pulling the object off he looked down at it. Koichi's eyes widened as his whole face turned red. In his hand was a lacy pair of undergarments.

"Ah!" Koichi cried out dropping the clothing.

"Ah, he's found my stuff," Fiamma pointed out

Fiamma always kept some extra things in Giorno's dorm, just in case. Koichi quickly put the things back in the suitcase closing it up. With red cheeks he continued to search the room.

"At this rate he's going to see the flame of the lighter! Then he'll probably put it out!" Giorno whispered

"We need to grab the lighter," Fiamma said

"Gold Experience!"

Gold Experience came out punching the light switch in the room. The power traveled through the wires of light fixture and the lamp hanging above Giorno's desk turned into a snake.

The snake hissed opening its mouth grabbing the bread with its mouth. The snake lifted up the bread along with the lighter but as it twisted its body the flame from the lighter grazed across the reptiles underbelly, burning it. The snake let out an angered hiss dropping the bread before it turned back into a lamp. The lighter's flame was safe but the faint thud the bread made as it landed back on the desk caught Koichi's attention.

"Fiamma distraction!" Giorno said

Fiamma nodded her head swinging into the bedroom window transforming. At that moment Koichi had just picked up the bread with the lighter in it, as well as his passport.

"Yes, I found it!"

*BARK*

"Ah!" Koichi jumps as a loud bark sounded from behind him. "A dog!?"

*BARK BARK BARK BARK*

A beagle was behind him barking.

"Where? Where did you come from?"

The beagle ran at Koichi causing the boy to jump as the dog weaved between his legs barking the entire time. This continued for about a minute or two then the dog ran out of the room through the bedrooms open door, leaving behind a bewildered Koichi.

The beagle ran down the stairs of the boy's dormitory heading outside. Turning a corner the beagle vanished as Fiamma appeared. She made it outside to the main stairway just as Giorno was going down them. She was about to call his name but something happened that surprised both of them. Out of nowhere a splash of water headed straight for Giorno. His reflexes were fast as the blonde boy pulled back.

An old man, who was one of the school's janitors, stepped out from the room at the bottom of the stairs.

"Whoa, that was close. Sorry about that. I was cleaning the stairs. I'm glad it was just a slight mist and the water didn't actually hit you." The Janitor grabbed a wet broom and started scrubbing the ground. "This must mean we've both done good things in our daily lives."

The whole time the old man was speaking Giorno stood unmoving not saying a single thing. Fiamma walked down the stairs and quickly figured out why Giorno was in such a frozen state. The water might not have splashed his body but it did get his hands, the ones that were clutching the now extinguished lighter.

Fiamma had never seen Giorno look so stunned in his life, like he just dropped a baby. Although she could understand, becoming a gangstar was his dream and he very well couldn't do that without joining a gang.

"What do we do now?" Fiamma questioned

"Seriously this isn't good. The flame…." Giorno set the lighter down a shadow overtaking his features.

Fiamma, not sure what to do at the moment, just patted Giorno's back trying to comfort the teen.

"Flame?" The Janitor questioned hearing Giorno. "Is that lighter not lighting up anymore? Is it broken? Is it my fault?"

"No, it wasn't you..I'm actually trying to process what happened," Giorno spoke

The Janitor studied the lighter. "But from what I can see, it doesn't look broken. The lighter is still letting gas out."

"What did you just say?" Giorno questions

The man picked up the lighter holding it to his ear. "Yes, there's still gas coming out. Is this the switch? Did you try pushing it?"

"No...it shouldn't be able to light. This whole test depended on if the flame was lit or not," Giorno said

"If your able to relight it wouldn't that defeat the purpose of the test?" Fiamma pondered

The old man hit the switch and a large flame shot out of the lighter, so big you would have thought it was actually a blow torch.

"I was startled by the size of the flame, but it looks like its working fine. See?" The man handed the lighter over to Giorno. "By the way, since you have that lighter, your not smoking cigarettes, are you?"

"Now I'm really confused. The flame really could be relit, what does that mean?" Fiamma questioned

"Something's wrong," Giorno said

"Giorno!" Fiamma shouted grabbing the boy's shoulder. She pointed up and Giorno followed her finger surprised to see a dark figure just a few feet in front of them walk past. The figure had a face that resembled a robotic Venetian mask it also sported a large black Venetian hat. That's all the two could make out as a majority of the figure was hidden by a black cloak. Catching only a brief glance of its eyes, showed that they were yellow.

The figure continued to walk on and Giorno and Fiamma followed but it only took a few more steps before the figure vanished.

"That could be his Sta-!"

"You relit the lighter, didn't you?"

Giorno and Fiamma froze before quickly turning around. The figure, now for sure Stand, had appeared behind the Janitor. He was holding what looked like a ghost of the old man. The man himself was frozen in place like something was holding tightly onto his body.

"I'll give you one more chance. You have two possible paths. The first path is to live and become a chosen one. Your only other path is death."

"A Stand!" Fiamma exclaimed

"Polpo's Stand!" Giorno added

Polpo's Stand opened its mouth and an arrow came out where its tongue should have been. The arrow aimed, pointing right at the old man's forehead.

"You relit the lighter! This is your fate!"

Before the situation could be fully processed the arrow was plunged right through the spirit of the man's forehead.

"No way! You bastard! What the hell are you doing?!" Giorno shouted

Even though it wasn't man's physical body when the arrow was removed blood still sprouted out flowing quickly from the head wound.

"This soul….did not belong to one who should be chosen."

The old man staggered on his feet feeling the effects of the Stand's arrow attack had on his spiritual form. The Stand no longer had a use for the man's soul tossing it away without a second thought. The man's real body was thrown back too, his spirit going back inside him. Fiamma leaped forward catching the man's body.

"Giorno….he's dead. There's no injury to him but he has no pulse," Fiamma said

"Is it….the Stand pulls out people's souls and kills them with an arrow?" Giorno said

He and Fiamma slowly started back away as the Stand looked around like it was searching. The two took tentative steps back trying not to make any noise. They took a few more steps back and the Stand suddenly snapped its head towards them.

"You relit the lighter, too, didn't you? I'll give you one more chance. You have two possible paths!"

The Stand lunged at the two and they jumped out of the way. Fiamma went to the left in the open stone courtyard, while Giorno went forward landing on the wide banister of the stone stairs. The Stand whipped around grabbing Giorno's shadow and started pulling. Giorno yelled as his soul was being dragged out through his body. When it was fully out it took the form of Gold Experience. The Stand opened its mouth the arrow shooting out. Gold Experience grabbed it trying to hold it back. Blood gushed from the Stand's hand and the same wound appeared on Giorno's hand.

"This arrow...if I actually get stabbed by that arrow, I'm dead for sure!" A determined look crossed over Giorno's features. "I've got no choice! Even if Polpo is one of the capos, if he's going to stand in my way and even kill an innocent old man like he was a piece of trash….I have to defeat him! Fiamma!"

"CHAAA!"

The tall girl sprang forth from behind Polpo's Stand. She performed a spin kick to the Stand's head knocking it off Gold Experience. With the golden Stand free it threw up its fist and started plumbing Polpo's Stand.

"Muda! Muda! Muda! Muda! Muda! Muda!"

"Gold Experience ….Only your sense will go berserk, and all movements will look slow."

Polpo's Stand fell back knocking over the Janitor's bucket of water. As the water splashed the Stand it disappeared.

"It's gone! That's impossible! It shouldn't be able to control its own movements right now. Even if it were able to move, it should be extremely slow," Giorno looked at Fiamma. "Fiamma!"

"Right. Wild Thing!"

Long brown floppy ears sprung froth from Fiamma's head, and her feet shifted turning into that of a rabbit, along with a puffy cotton tail right at her tailbone.

"The European Rabbit! Rabbits are prey animals so they're always on the lookout for danger. They have a 360-degree panoramic vision so they can even see behind them! Their sense of smell is even greater and the rabbit can often smell predators before they see them."

Fiamma stood still looking for any source of movement, her large rabbit ears twitching, waiting for any sound.

"It has to be around here somewhere…."

"We have to find it before the slowed-time effect wears off, or it'll attack again," Giorno said

"Giorno-!"

Fiamma's eyes widened and she turned around seeing Polpo's Stand appear phasing out of a shadow. It grabbed onto Gold Experience once again seizing onto the Stand.

"F-From within the shadows?! Sh-Shit! Its movements are slower, but it's still just as powerful! I can't move at all!"

Giorno yelled as Polpo's Stand started driving the arrow into his Stand's neck. Fiamma crouched about to take off but suddenly Polpo's Stand dropped Gold Experience. Giorno fell back over the stairs banister and Fiamma ran catching him just before he hit the ground.

Setting him down Fiamma stepped back the heel of her foot going into a shadow. Polpo's Stand appeared grabbing Fiamma's leg.

"Fiamma!" Giorno shouted

Fiamma didn't panic as the skin on her legs started to change color, the smoothness of her legs being replaced with a rough bumpy texture.

Black Sabbath shot the arrow at Fiamma's leg as Fiamma used her free leg to kick the Stand. It dodged the kick causing the arrow to simply nick Fiamma.

Fiamma's leg's from the knee down was that of a large reptilian, her feet included, sharp claws scratching the pavement. A scratch was on her leg bleeding just a bit.

"These legs are of a crocodile, standard bullets shouldn't be able to pierce the skin. So whatever that arrow is made of is tough as hell." Fiamma explained

Fiamma stood poised ready to attack but Black Sabbath just walked away suddenly disinterested in both her and Giorno. The two stared bewildered as the Stand's actions. It walked back and forth but stayed within the border of the shadow cast by the school building.

Noticing this Giorno reached out placing his hand in a shadow. Black Sabbath sprung out of the shadow arms up for an attack. Fiamma turned quickly about to pounce, but stopped when she saw that Black Sabbath was not attacking. It got back up and started walking again in a calm manner.

"What the?" Fiamma questions

"The shadows! It's in the shadows! It can only move within the shadows, but at an amazing speed," Giorno said

"Ah, it's like an ambush predator," Fiamma concluded

Black Sabbath continued to walk back and forth in the shadow, pacing like an animal trapped in a cage.

"It's stuck right?" Fiamma questions

"Yeah, I don't think it can follow us into the sunlight," Giorno said

Fiamma looked up to the sky. "That won't last long. The sun is setting and pretty soon it'll be on the other side of the school."

"What'll happen if we force it out into the sunlight?" Giorno pondered

"Maybe it'll fry, like bacon in a pan," Fiamma said

With Fiamma's monotone way of speaking it was hard to tell if she was serious or joking. If it was anyone but Giorno, they would have given the girl a strange look.

"It's definitely worth trying. But how do we go about dragging it out?" Giorno said

"It's weirding me out," Fiamma stated

Black Sabbath had stopped walking and was now just standing there staring directly at Giorno and Fiamma.

"It's waiting for the sun to go down," Giorno said

"Hey!"

Giorno and Fiamma looked up and standing at the railing of the stairs was Koichi.
