Let's rewind to back in Egypt…

Meanwhile, back in Luxor, Shion was tailing Chazz, Asahi, & Yamabuki, as they were traveling along the road. Shion was behind the others, as Yamabuki started to sense something. She whispered, "That aura…"

She turned around, and Shion gulped. She said, as she looked around, "Contacts… Did I lose a contact?"

Yamabuki sighed, "Interesting…"

She and Shion stared down, as Chazz and Asahi had already left. Yamabuki said, "Say, why do you keep following us, and staring at our backs?"

Shion said nothing, as Yamabuki stated, "You got a murderous soul inside of you. You're crazy, if you think you can follow me, nonchalantly."

Shion looked around, and asked, "Sorry, were you speaking to me? Sorry, I couldn't see, without my contacts."

"Contacts? You see fine. Why are you walking towards us?"

"Isn't it obvious? I thought you were my friends. We came here from Japan to go sightseeing."

She looked around and said, "And I was looking for a coin I dropped."

Yamabuki snarled, "Coin? You said it was a contact."

Shion gulped, as Yamabuki glared, "So, which is it you're looking for?"

She picked up a coin and said, "Oh! Wait! My mistake~! Here's the coin I found. I lost my change."

Yamabuki said, "Yeah? Then PROVE IT!"

She summoned Ninja Chariot, as Yamabuki called, "YOU KNOW WHAT? Time to find out the truth, you hentai!"

She lunged at her, but Shion avoided it, using her shadows. Yamabuki growled, "So, it's true! You're a Stand User!"

Shion's shadow lunged at her, but Yamabuki avoided it, "That was close!"

Shion grinned, as she said, "Well put, Yamabuki Suou…"

She dashed off, as she cried, "HEY! GET BACK HERE!"

She called out, as she chased her, "CHAZZ! ASAHI! THE ENEMY! A STAND USER IS HERE! I'M HOT ON HER TRAIL!"

Asahi called, "Yamabuki?"

Chazz turned to Yamabuki, who was running, "Huh?"

Asahi called out, "YAMABUKI!"

Chazz asked, "Where'd she go?"

Yamabuki called back, "I'M OVER HERE! GUYS! FOLLOW ME!"

Yamabuki continued to chase after Shion, who's running through the alleyway.


Episode XXXVI – Chapter 2: The Darkest World Within!
Shion & Sethan's Horror Show!


"HEY! GET BACK HERE! DON'T RUN AWAY FROM ME!" Yamabuki yelled, as she chased after her, "I swear to god, I know my JoJo! If you so much turn me into a damn kid, I'll kill you!"

Suddenly, the area turned darker, and cried out, "HEY! Where are you going? Why the hell is it getting dark? It's only 9 in the morning! And why the hell is she running so fast? HEY!"

The area continued to grow dark and foggy, as Yamabuki cried, "HEY! What in the-? Why is it getting foggy? It's black and misty… EUGH! Where am I?"

WHAM!
She tripped and fell to the ground. She groaned, "Owww… Ungh, where am I?"

She got up and dusted herself off. She rubbed her head and moaned, "Man… What a blow. For a second I thought it'd be dark already… and it's only morning."

She looked around, as it was dimmed and dark, looking like a small Japanese town. It was covered in a thick fog, as Yamabuki was surrounded. She coughed, as she called, "Hello? What the hell is this? Ungh… This is disgusting… Is Enyama alive again? What does she have against me?"

She looked around the dark land, as she said, "Weird… … …I am simply in an area, which feels like something out of horror show… That woman… she has the same horrific shadows as her Stand… whatever this is… But why do I feel a stream of hate and terror? The aura is like… demonic…"

She continued to walk around, and sniffled, "Myuu-Myuu should be in my place, but she's such a wuss. She's into this…"

She heard voices, as she was scared. She suddenly saw a shadow that resembles Shion, and then cried, "HEY! The woman from before!"

She tried to move, as she was scared. She saw the girl. But she vanished, as Shion said, from behind, "Do you know why this is happening to you?"

Yamabuki shivered, as she didn't turn around, "That's the power of my Divine Sethan, god of storms and violence. And hence the emphasis on violence… because I love to make people bleed… especially you, Yamabuki Suou."

Yamabuki turned around, but Shion ensnared the trap made by her. She was flung towards the trees and crashed onto the bark. Shion said, "Welcome to my world, bitch!"

Yamabuki suddenly got caught in the branches, as she was trapped. She cried, "YAAAGH! What the hell is this? What kind of tree is this?"

Shion stripped herself, showing a dark blue bra and panties, as she said, "I needed a change of clothes… but don't worry, I have my scars healed, from the last time I died…"

Her body regenerated; and then suddenly quick changed to an orange shirt and black shorts. She had a white lab coat on and said, "I am for revenge… Revenge on what Satoshi, Keiichi, Mion, and everybody that did me wrong! Everyone except Rena, whom I will avenge, after she died by your brutes' hands!"

She smirked, "Now that I trapped you, you're not going anywhere. You're in my world now, and your ninjutsu wouldn't work against me."

Yamabuki was shaken, "She's right… I can't break free… My body is freezing…"

Shion smirked, "Has the time come, already? Preying on the weak, that's good for me… Very good, me."

Yamabuki broke free, as Shion viewed a mirage of Chazz and Asahi, in the distance. Shion grinned, "I have to tell you quietly on this… Preying on the weak is what I love… maybe too much! To me, I'm not right in the head. But you know the old saying: "If you think you're weird, then you're not weird enough". So I am weird, right? I'm actually sane. But either way, I won't lose to a cowardly and helpless ninja like you!"

PUNT!
She kicked Yamabuki in the ribcage, as she coughed up blood. Yamabuki was sent flying to the branches, caught in the thick leaves. Shion cackled evilly. However, Asahi overheard the sound, as Chazz asked, "You hear something?"

Asahi said, "It's nothing… I thought I heard Yamabuki…"

They continued searching, as Yamabuki was trapped in a tree, inside Shion's world. Shion smirked, "My mission is to destroy you, ninja… along with the rest of you interlopers."

Yamabuki moaned, "I can't get out! Damn it, let me out of here!"

Shion reached for her coat and said, "Oh, I'll let you out… What to use on you, a helpless little ninja, like you…"

She pulled out a gun, with a silencer attached, and replied, "I would torture you softly and painless, but I'm bored, already. So, I'm going to kill you, straight away."

She fired her gun at Yamabuki. But they bounced off of her. Shion gasped, as Ninja Chariot appeared, with its blade nicked. Shion growled, "Damn… I thought for sure that the scared you are, the weaker you cannot unleash your Stand. So, I guess that you have a dull blade?"

Yamabuki's Stand's katana was dented, as Yamabuki cried, "HUH? How did it dull my Chariot's katana?"

Shion smirked, "Weak, when timid… Since my Divine Sethan made your timid and frightened, it makes your Stand weak and vulnerable. My Divine Sethan created my own spitting image of the world I grew up in… and endless black as blood sky, filled with woe, misery, and hate… Courage is all you need… and it just so happens that it eclipses everything you stood for, Yamabuki!"

Shion's shadow reappeared, as Shion held up an axe. She smirked, "You get it now, ninja dork? Very good…"

She wielded a black axe and said, "I lost my older machete and knives, when I was dead… but gained so much more from the man that brought me here… And don't worry… Mion will take care of it… Attaboy, kid!"

Mion, her shadow, emerged from the ground, as she was with long green hair, and her body was naked and all-black as the night. Her eyes opened, showing demonic blue eyes. This was Mion, named after Shion's dear twin sister, a.k.a. the Divine Sethan.

Shion smiled, as Mion held a shadowy axe, "Yamabuki Suou, meet my Stand – my dear sweet sister, Divine Sethan!"

Mion swung down, as Shion roared, "YOU'RE MINE! DIE, YAMABUKI!"

CLANG!
Ninja Chariot deflected the axe, but its katana blade broke off, from the tip. Shion laughed, "That dull knife?"

But what she didn't know was that it ricocheted off the trees and landed on Shion's neck, wounding her. She screamed in pain, as Yamabuki cried, "Serves you right, asshole! I meant for you to take the shot, so Chariot can fire a bank shot towards your neck!"

Shion held her neck in pain, as Yamabuki broke free. She hopped down and ran off. She figured that she cannot fight Shion, with her courage shattered. She dashed off in super speed, which is her normal speed, and Shion removed the blade from her neck. She sobbed, "Shit, that hurts… I can't let her make a fool out of me!"

She looked and saw that Yamabuki vanished. She growled, "Damn that little ninja bitch… How dare she try to sabotage my brilliant re-revenge! To protect and assure my pride, I'll beat her to death!"

She ran off, looking for Yamabuki, hiding somewhere in the woods. In a dark shack, Yamabuki was hiding in the shadows, and said, "So… This woman is evil… and I bet Steven Nevins hired her to kill me… Damn old fart! He'll get his! Since it's come down to this…"

She breathed deeply and held up some scrolls in her hand. She said, "I have plenty of drawings in me… I have to show courage, or else I'm dead. This is my ninjutsu, not my Stand. Ninja Chariot's too risky, so I must best this freak, controlling her bloodlust. I can't believe I am resorting to this now…"

Yamabuki's signature ability: materialization. She creates drawings that come to life, whether living or dead, or person or thing, and acts as a replica of the drawing created.

She thought, "If she comes here, I'll strike with my ninjutsu… I'm not good in offense with it, but it works as support. My Stand, however, does the attacks for me."

She waited, as Shion was looking for her.


While in New York, Percival, with Cy on his back, was running for his life, as he was being chased by the Star Drop Stand girls, who are actually Stands, created by Eli Ayase, who disguised herself as Daichi Taira.

Percival cried, "DAMN IT! I AM RUNNING FROM RIDICULOUS ANDROID GIRLS! But they're not robots… They're Stands! Why do I not have a pure heart?"

Sosogu sang, as she was leading the group, "You cannot win! Your impurity triumphs you!"

Korona sang out, "You hobble on your legs, but it won't, be, true!"

Shizuku continued, "Just because you're a meddler, you cannot defeat us!"

Percival groaned, "Just what I needed: Singing Stepford Stands!"

Eli called, as she was dashing spot to spot, "You're all but surrounded! That android you carry is useless against you! Small as she is, she weighs you down, making you helpless!"

Cy said, "She's right. Should I drop down and run with you?"

Percival barked, "Save your strength. You and I need to stop this. Would you assist me in battle?"

Cy nodded, "Correct. But not while people are in danger!"

She beeped, "Turn left here."

Percival boomed, "I'll turn right!"

He turned right, as the Stands turned left. He smirked, "See? Eli's stupid enough to-!"

Shizuku appeared in front of them, as she sang, "Nice Try! Who stupid now?"

Korona smiled, "Who's stupid now?"

Sosogu sang, "Who's stupid nooooooooooow?"

Percival griped, "Shut up, shut up, SHUT UP, SHUT! UP!"

Cy sighed, "Well, it didn't work, anyway…"

They prepared to punch, as they belted their tunes, "Die~!"

Cy and Percival separated, as they avoided the assault. He called, "3-on-2 isn't good odds. If you can prove yourself, assist me in battle."

Cy beeped, "Error. It is now 4-on-2. Do not forget. The Stands are controlled by one person: Eli Ayase."

Percival griped, "Damn… I realized that to beat the Stand, you must incapacitate the Stand User… But would I incapacitate one, or all?"

Sosogu smiled, "If you want to beat our master, you have to beat…"
They sang out, "All! Of! USSSSSSSSS!"

Percival sighed, "Singing Stands… Now they answer my question… Eli Ayase, you're finished!"

He prepared to fight, as he thought, "My only option left… is to destroy the Stand User! It means I have to plow through these three, before I meet her."

He called out, "BRING! IT! ONNNNNNNNNNN!"

He revved his arms up, as Eli smirked, "The Order Tempests… How noble. Too bad my girls are wind-resistant."

Percival said, "Wind resistant? I'll show you gales of justice!"

He landed air uppercuts, creating vortexes and tornadoes. He roared, "Order Tempest Cyclone!"

The Stands dodged it, as he cried out, "Dobre! They dodged my Cyclones!"

Eli laughed, "Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! I am big winner! I am going to kill you! And kill you, and kill you! I promise you!"

Percival snarled, "Vy zlyy virnyy!" meaning "You wicked witch!" in Ukrainian.

Eli laughed, "Hahahahahahaha! YA zloy? YA ostanavlivayu tebya, zloy chelovek!" as it means "I wicked? I'll stop you, you evil man!" in Russian.

She called out, "Ukrainian Dog!"

They attacked, as Percival shouted, "I'm American, but of Ukrainian decent, you Communist dog!"

Cy roared, "DON'T be so wacist!"

Percival said, "Sorry."

Cy called, "I'll fight the Stand Trio! Go to her and end it!"

Percival rushed to Eli, as Eli blocked his punches and kicks, "Not so tough, are you? Do you know who I am? Percival Gaynes, the original member of The Gang! Member #3!"

He landed a swift right to her face, as she snarled, "No! I will not let you!"

She socked at his face, and he landed a swift palm strike to her left eye. He yelled, clawing at her face, "RIGHT BACK AT YA, CUNT!"

Eli snarled, breaking free, "Grrrrr… DAMN YOU!"

POW!
She landed a swift kick to the jaw, and Percival lands a straight right to the chest, near the Power Core on her body. The brawling continues, as Cy was surrounded by the three Stands that were once Star Drop Stands. Percival and Eli clashed, as they growled at each other. It was a war of international flavor: A Japanese woman, who's also a Stand User, of Russian decent…
An American man, whose powers are of the wind, of Ukrainian decent…
A war pitting ancestors of the now-defunct Soviet Union; what will Stand tall, in this war between the modern-day 21st Century version of Rocky vs. Drago?

Percival lands a swift right kick to Eli's head, but Eli dodged it easily. Eli did a backflip and raised her hands on a dismount. She grinned, "Unlike you, old man, you're aware that I am flexible and nimble, as a prima ballerina."

He snarled, "I'll give you your Swan Lake Song!" and grumbled, "Damn. That came out wrong."

Eli barked, "How could you say that? Of course it was wrong? You and your battle puns!"

He landed a swift left and right, as Eli dodged each attack. He roared, punching and kicking, "HOLD STILL! Why won't you go down?"

Eli said, "You forced me to put my hand down on this! You, and your allies… ALL WILL SUFFER!"

She boomed, as she ducked the last punch, and landed a swift knee to the gut. But he caught it with a massive right leg guillotine strike. Eli dodged out of the way, as she panted, "Why suffer, Percival Gaynes? It's been your fault, you know?"

He asked, "What did you say?"

Eli's eyes flashed red, as she boomed, "Your kind, they always prevail… but you're like none of them, because you fail."

The Stands sang, as Cy defended herself, "Uh-oh! Master has gotten mad-mad-mad-mad-mad-mad-mad-mad-maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad!"

Eli landed a swift supersonic punch to his stomach, as she roared, "YOU'RE WEAK! LORD MIO HAS YOU PINNED!"

She stated, "Percival Gaynes is considered cannon-fodder to The Gang. While he was responsible for a past moment, it makes him soft, realizing that he never trained, only to focus on closure of some false goddess, who's already dead. That is you."

He growled, seething and writhing in pain, "You don't know me… You never knew about me…"

SOCK!
Eli lands a huge fast left, and said, "Wrong! You're as weak as your coffee! You pig of a human being!"

Eli called, "Leave the android! Ladies, attack this man!"

Percival growled, "Why? Why are you doing this?"

Eli said, "Closure. Harasho, you shall be a fine prisoner… and the android, well… She can be scrap metal…"

Cy shivered, as Percival coughed, "Cy… Run…"

The Stands went to Percival, as Sosogu sang, "This fight is won! Master has achieved vengeance! The DNC is now cleansed."

Percival moaned, "STOP! SINGING!"

Korona landed a knee to the spine and called, "You are handsome, but weak! That makes you a loser!"

Shizuku delivered a right hook to his face, and sang out, "You are smart, and a mind of Einstein! But your brains are soft like your muscles!"

Sosogu landed a dropkick to the abdomen, as she sang, "And your past will never escape you! You're a hero, with one fatal flaw!"

They harmonized, "It's all… you… It's all… you…"

Eli went closer, as Cy ran for it. Cy cried, "SIR! Hang on! I have to get help!"

Eli smirked, "Leave her. She's useless… and here I thought that this android was a challenge to me."

She stomped on his chest, and he coughed out blood. She said, "Percival Gaynes… Now, you shall see what happens… when you face the glory of Paper Muse. Lady Anna's death is now avenged, in spite of you and your meddling mortals!"

Percival moaned, as he was coughing, "Farra… Eri… I'm sorry…"

Eli smirked, as she winked, "I win."
PUNT!
She knocked Percival out, with a deadly kick to the face.
Percival Gaynes of Feral Beauty… a member of the original The Gang… a man that was the John Lennon of the Superhero Reckless Rock band…

Eli laughed heartily, "OHHHHH, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA! OHHHHH, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA! OHHHHH, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA!"

…was defeated…

Eli then called out, "Now… We'll deal with your friend, later. You're coming with me."

She dragged him away, as she took him someplace. This is possible that Percival may be held hostage.

Back in Luxor, or in Shion's nightmarish realm, Yamabuki was hiding in the shadows, waiting for Shion to arrive. Shion was close by, as she was armed with her axe. Yamabuki waited, until she saw Asahi and Chazz. She then gasped and thought, "Huh? Chazz? Asahi? Why are-?"

She growled, "They can't hear me… If they know, I should warn them that the enemy is here. But how can I warn them? They do not remember me here."

She then whispered, "Hmm… Only one way out… I have to send them a message from another dimension."

She pulled out a drawing of a cartoon character with nekomimi long blue hair, and revealing warrior armor. She then said, "One of my favorite works… Moé-tan! She's from Moé Moé Hunter and Moé Moé After School! Moé-tan is my best work! But can Asahi & Chazz believe it? Never thought I'd get to use it, to contact from another world… but this is the first time, since I joined The Gang on their quest in Egypt, I get to use my ninjutsu."

She whispered, flicking her paper, "ARISE, MY PUPPET!"

Moé-Tan appeared, as she resembled Yamabuki, only with her furry uniform. Yamabuki said, "Make sure that the Stand User doesn't see you. Go warn Chazz Princeton and Asahi Sakurai. They're the two in black hair. Chazz has a black coat."

Moé-Tan bowed, "Yes, Master Yamabuki."

She departed, as she went to find Chazz & Asahi. Yamabuki said, as she was worried, "At this rate, her visibility is possible, but she has lots of time on her hands, including her lifespan. It's only temporary, but enough to get me out of here. And more importantly, that Stand User may find me, if Moé-Tan somehow is spotted."

She held another scroll and said, "Another Yamabuki Special, underway… I have to counteract her attacks… I'll have time to prepare a weapon… I know~!"

She figured out what to create, but…
The door bust open, as Shion grinned, by the doorway, "Very good… me…"

Yamabuki shrieked, as she was spotted, "OH, NO!"

Shion grinned, "You think I'm stupid to sense your ninjutsu? You ninjas are stealth, but you forget… You're in my world… Very good!"

Yamabuki trembled, as she was trapped. "THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!"

What now? Shion has Yamabuki cornered, as she sent help to retrieve the others. Is Yamabuki doomed to be another body in a Japanese Horror Anime, or will Chazz & Asahi come to her rescue?


To be continued…
