Four days later…
The radio played, as Otome retired in another apartment, out of town, near F City's residential district.
"Good morning, and welcome to WFCK Radio! Kai Harada back again, after a week-long absence, and I'm back for more of your local tunes!"
As the radio continued, Otome served coffee to a girl's hand, with a ring on it. It was that same mean woman who feigned lover for her boyfriend.
"There you go. Here's your coffee." She said to the hand, "OH! I almost forgot. I'm going to be out of the house, running a few errands. So, I'd like for you to stay put. We'll wine and dine, when I get back… How's that?"
She stroked the severed limb, as she prepares to leave.
Remember last time? Otome Saotome is the Sketch Artist Killer. She killed Minatsu Amakase, after knowing her secret, and The Gang, Princeton, and others are all looking for her. Will they ever find her, before the next victim is targeted?
Episode 49 – Chapter 3: The Sketch Artist Killer (Part 1):
The Full-On Assault!
Saotome's Secondary Bomb!
A dejected Tsukasa was walking by herself, as she was worried. She narrated, as she kept walking, "It's been four days since we found out about Minatsu's murder. It's been fairly quiet, since… But…
There's still a killer, lurking somewhere in the shadows of this town… When it comes down to it, the mind only sees it when it wants to. The look of guilt or innocence is in the eye of the beholder."
She then suddenly ran into Peter, holding a small book in his hands. She gasped, "OH! Agent Giese…"
He turned to her, as she asked, "Did you find anything in your investigation?"
He said nothing, only growled. She whimpered, "Uh… Well… Were you able to locate the button's whereabouts?"
He spoke, "Oh, that. Not yet. Hopefully that changes soon."
She said, "Oh, right. I hope so… Where are your other Agents?"
"Michelle's staying in the F City Grand Hotel, for safety. And Steven and Farra have left F City, on an important mission. Asahi is with Chazz, still grieving."
She then followed him and asked, "So… Anywhere you're going in particular?"
"No." He said, "Not really."
She was nervous, as they kept walking. She thought, "Son of a bitch… Talking to his giant who is the strong silent type, it's like pulling teeth. Sendo-senpai's intimidation gives me goosebumps, but Agent Giese's calm dark demeanor makes me panicky. There's got to be something we can talk about. Lemme see…"
She cheered, "OH! Your clothes look really cool!"
She then gasped, as Peter turned to a small shop. She then asked, "Huh? Why are you here?"
"It's a shoe store."
"Oh, what do you know? But why a shoe store?"
They spotted a small flier that says "We do simple tailoring". Tsukasa said, "Oh, that's right. Some stores do a bit of tailoring, like fitted for their skirts and pants. The electronic store sells flowers, too. But why come to a shoe store?"
He explained, "I did a bit of searching, and I learned all about the tailors of F City. But it didn't occur to me now that I would ask in places like this."
He held the button in a small bag and said, "We'll ask this place. Maybe someone will know."
XXXXX
Inside the shoe store, a man in gray hair viewed the button, as Peter & Tsukasa waited. He asked, "So, something wrong with the button?"
Peter said, "No. But if you don't remember where it came from, forget it. I just couldn't remember what it was originally attached to."
The tailor held a box of crackers, as he said, "That's too bad. Hey, kid, want an Animal Cracker? I'd save the camels for last, but help yourself."
Tsukasa said, "Uh, no, thanks."
The tailor said, "Suit yourself. Anyways, getting back to the button, I have seen it. But I also happen to make some modifications of a uniform that needed alterations. A young lady sent it to me, yesterday, and asked me to replace the button, the same kind you brought in."
Tsukasa gasped, "Agent Giese, is that-?"
Peter nodded, "No doubt. This is her jacket. We found it."
The tailor asked, "Found what, exactly?"
She said, "Oh, uh, nothing. Anyways, you have any idea who it belongs to?"
"Are you serious? Of course I do!" the man explained, "I have a lot of names in my ol' noggin, but it's about a thousand of them, coming here to F City, and getting their clothes mended."
Peter huffed, "Ya don't say…"
Tsukasa cheered, "You're incredible, sir! Would you mind telling me who owns the jacket?"
The tailor said, "Well, I guess helping you out wouldn't be much trouble. I don't remember her name, but… I think it's still on the order tag inside. I don't even need the tags, since I know the name, but I keep things smoothly tended, whenever I get the names on the tags."
He pulled out the order tag, and looked at the name. He moaned, "Hmm… That's interesting… How do you read this last name?"
Tsukasa offered to help, "Do you have trouble reading the name? Here, lemme help you."
SMASH!
Before Tsukasa went to the man, a streak of light blasted through the tailor's hand. She gasped in shock, as the man moaned in pain, "What the-? What the hell?"
Peter held Tsukasa back, as he whispered, "Stay back."
A small black and white monochrome tank appeared, with the face of a bear, its left side white and its right side black, rolled onto the shoulder of the tailor. "Look over here…" It spoke in a male voice.
Tsukasa shrieked, "ARE YOU SEEING WHAT I'M SEEING?"
Peter said, "I did. Don't get to close to it. We're not sure what this thing is…"
The small tank boomed in a male and female voice, "Hey! Didn't you hear me? I said look over here!"
The tailor turned to his right, as he only saw caterpillar tracks. He shrieked, only for the bear tank to dive inside his mouth. Tsukasa shrieks in horror, as Peter pulled her back.
"Is that her Stand?" He thought.
Tsukasa cried, "AGENT GIESE, THE COAT RACK!"
A hand appeared grabbing the jacket. "THE KILLER IS HERE, AND SHE'S GOING TO TAKE THE JACKET!"
Otome was inside the closet, as she was trying to get her blazer. She snarled, as she was figured out, "I lost a button, during my scuffle with the android. Stupid mistake. I should've imagined they go this far to investigate it. This is bad. Do they even know my name on the tag? Why have I been faced with adversity, lately?"
Peter groaned, "Oh, gimme a break. This would be, when it comes to taking her suit."
He went closer, as Otome growled, "Panicking would be a mistake. It looks like I'll have to waste them all with Lethal Queen's Bomb Type Two – Monokuma's Revenge… just like that trashed doll, Minatsu."
The bear head rattled, as they stopped. Tsukasa cried, "Huh? It's moving?"
Peter stepped back, "What could this be?"
She rushed to the jacket and cried, "NO! OUR EVIDENCE! HURRY!"
He grabbed her and called, "WAIT! We can't go near it. Look at the way she's moving the jacket! It's strange…"
The secondary bomb started to tick, as Peter whispered, "What is that power?"
A female voice called, "TSUKASA, WATCH OUT!"
Peter roared, "IT'S GONNA BLOW!"
KABOOM!
The explosion was made, as a female figure shoved Peter and Tsukasa down. The body of the tailor exploded into nothing but ashes, as Tsukasa sobbed, "No… It's a Bomb! A STAND BOMB! And it obliterated the owner! Oh, god… This is how the killer killed Minatsu!"
She turned to the coat rack and snarled, "Shit! The coat's gone!"
The figure said, "Damn! What's going on in this backwards town?"
Tsukasa gasped, "Wait a sec! SIS?!"
A woman appeared, looking exactly like Tsukasa, except she has long lavender hair done in pigtails, and with dark ribbons. It was Tsukasa's twin sister, Kagami Hiiragi.
Peter grumbled, "Oh, gimme a break…"
Kagami glared, sarcastically, "Long time, no see, big man…"
Tsukasa asked, "Sis? What are you even doing here?"
Kagami said, "I came to help. I had to leave my friends in Kona Force 7, after learning the news about what happened in F City, and I wanted to extend a hand… It was after I learned what happened, the other day…"
Tsukasa said, "Yeah, I know… The Sketch Artist Killer… She's here in this room!"
Peter called, "You two! Squabble at each other later! We have to go get her!"
Kagami called, "Right! Tsukasa, let's go get her!"
He called, "NO! DO NOT pursue her!"
She halted, "Do NOT pursue her? What the hell are you saying? She's getting away!"
Tsukasa cried, "She's right! We want to know the bastard that killed Sakura and Minatsu!"
Peter explained, "Every battle isn't always chasing and beating the shit out of everyone. We need to act carefully and deliberately."
Tsukasa asked, "Huh? What are you saying?"
He explained, "Not knowing the nametag on it was obviously a grave misfortune, but judging by the kid clothes she wore, it's obviously a kids' size outfit for adults. The person who wears this is roughly around 130 centimeters (4'3"). If she were a child, she'd have her mother sew the button back on, but this is actually a suit for a girl, in a small size. Possibly she is a college student, at around 18 to 23, and moreover a bachelor; and the sleeves are shorter than normal. The suit she wore is possibly a designer suit. Even if we'd let her go, we'd narrow down the potential culprits who fit the description."
Kagami asked, "So… 130 centimeters… short stature, an adult, and wears designer suits…"
Tsukasa said, "But we can't let her go! She's a coldblooded murderer!"
Peter replied, "I know so… But we cannot leave and let her be. We have to find her Bomb Stand, as it's lurking around the building, waiting to strike."
Kagami asked, "Bomb Stand?"
Tsukasa said, "I'll explain later." She then gasped, "WHAT? It's still here? WHERE?!"
He said, "I haven't seen it, yet. But I know it's here… We'll make our exit from this place… carefully."
Kagami asked, "Wait, you'd know? But there's no way you'd know its location, if you haven't seen it!"
Peter explained, "She's not the kind of killer to Bomb-n-Run after only ousting one victim. Think about it. If she was, her killing spree have ended, a long time ago. She doesn't like to leave behind evidence, rather than a calling card. Meaning… she may take us out, too."
Tsukasa asked, "I understand, but don't you think you're being a teeny-bit overcautious?"
Kagami stated, "Sis, Agent Giese is right. Observing isn't just for looking around. It means scrutinizing everything. You don't listen, you concentrate. That's something I learned in Kona Force 7, when I joined the team. Otherwise, we'll die in this room."
Tsukasa said, "Sis, you're scaring me…"
Kagami stated, "Believe me… I have no clue what he's saying, but… He has a point."
Tsukasa thought in worry, "I don't like what he was implying, though. My THX was able to keep me safe. It matured a lot, since it emerged. Maybe Agent Giese doesn't know how serious I am."
Kagami laughed, "Besides, we know that this stupid bomb stand is long gone… You'd be stupid enough to locate it, in piles of shoes, now and then."
Just then, Monokuma's Revenge emerged, and lunged onto Tsukasa, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!"
The bomb spoke, "Over here!"
Kagami shrieked, "TSUKASA!" She growled, as she thought, "Fuck, I let that thing get to her!"
Peter brimmed in dark energy, and then roared, "DARKNESS DEVIL!"
POW!
"ORA!"
His Spirit Caller punched the Bomb Stand off of her shoulders, and began to rapidly punch at it. He landed one blow, burying it into the floor.
"Damn! It's tough…" He growled, "I gave it a thrashing, and it feels like a sort of tank."
Click!
Kagami gasped, "NOT AGAIN!"
Tsukasa shrieked, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Peter roared, "Darkveil Powers, assist me! BRING FORTH THE WORLD!"
Time suddenly stopped, before the bomb would go off. He said to the bomb, "I'd like to end this, and soon, before it ends ugly! So, I'm disposing of you, right now."
He punched at the bomb, and buried it with a massive blow of dark punches.
"CHAOS PUNCH! ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA-ORA! ORAAAAAAAAAA!"
SMASH!
The bomb smashed through the wooden floor, leaving a hole. Time restarted, as Tsukasa gasped, "Huh?"
Kagami whispered, "WHOA! How'd he do that?"
Tsukasa smiled, "He must've stopped time and finished it off!"
Kagami sighed, "You've been hanging around Konata, for far too long."
"She's not with me, right now. Incidentally, that murderer knew her place, already."
Otome watched on, as she was annoyed, "Persistent pests… Anyone who dares locate Otome Saotome must be destroyed. I'll obliterate those three, in one blow. They think they've won, but Monokuma's Revenge won't stop until they're dead."
The Bomb emerged, as it rolled off onto the shelves. Tsukasa cried, "There's… NO WAY! Not even a Spirit Caller's power would destroy that thing!"
Peter called, "Stay behind me, girls!"
He punched the bomb down, and it crashed into the wall. But it emerged from the hole, and flew upwards, rolling on the ceiling.
"I've heard of wall-walkers, but this is ridiculous!" Kagami complained, "There's no way to destroy it?! Damn it!"
Tsukasa sobbed, "Nothing we do can even faze it!"
"I can see that!" Peter roared, "Get back!"
Tsukasa saw Peter's left hand bleeding, as she cried, "OH! Your hand is bleeding, after all the force!"
He roared, "I SAID, GET BACK!"
The bomb lunged at Peter, but his Darkness Devil grabbed it and stretched its mouth wide and hard.
"OW-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow!" The bomb groaned.
Kagami yelled, "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING? IF THAT BLOWS UP, WE'LL BLOW UP, TOO!"
Click!
Tsukasa shrieked, "NO! NOT AGAIN!"
This time, Peter was ready! He threw Monokuma's Revenge towards the window, like a football, and it smashed through the window's glass.
KABOOM!
The bomb exploded, thought Peter was able to stop the attack. The smoke cleared, and the Bomb Stand was upside-down, creaking and squeaking. It tipped over, back to its position, and roared, "OVER HERE!"
Peter growled, "Good fucking grief. That's a first for me. This Stand's resilience is too much. The way this is going, my confidence will break, before it does."
Kagami cried, "What now? We're not going to win this, if this keeps up!"
Peter said, "It's still too close for comfort. I'm gonna destroy this Teddy Bear Clock from Hell."
Tsukasa whined, "Have you lost your mind? Listen to me! When a Stand is controlled, a fraction of its power is severed, when the user is far behind! Look at the way this thing's power and explosions occurred! Its owner has to be nearby! At most, 15-, no, based on what we've seen, she's ten meters away!"
"And?" He asked.
They cried, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN AND?!"
Tsukasa argued, "It's ten meters, and THX has only fifty meters! I can fight that bitch!"
Kagami asked, "Who's THX?"
Tsukasa said, "My Stand."
She gasped, "Wait a minute… Kagami, you can see the Bomb Stand, too?!"
Kagami nodded, "Duh. I can see this giant ogre's Devil Stand. This town is weird, despite being idiotic."
Tsukasa thought, "Wait… Sis… She has a Stand, I bet… She's not supposed to see it, if she doesn't have a Stand. So, that's one explanation explained… But how?"
Peter called, "The both of you don't move. Tsukasa, just leave it be. You have one job and that's protecting yourself with THX. Nothing else matters."
"You're letting her get away!"
"The guy's long gone, so basically, it's a remote-controlled Stand. Trust me. I've seen long-ranged Stands before, a while back."
"OVER HERE!" The Bomb roared, slowly rolling forward.
"It's movements are too simple for a short-ranged Spirit."
Tsukasa thought, "He's seen enough to know what goes on? Is he off his rocker?! We're dealing with a long-ranged Stand User! The user has to be closeby!"
She summoned THX and thought, "Agent Giese and Sis doesn't appreciate me… I'll find the killer, myself!"
It went up high, as THX looked around, within ten meters. It then spotted Otome, as Tsukasa gasped, "There it is! I found her! And she has the jacket with her!"
THX flew towards her, as Otome was walking off. But she halted, as Tsukasa cried, "WHAT? She's walking too far away! That's much farther than fifty meters! She's far out of THX's range! Does that mean that the killer can use a long-ranged Stand, from that far away? IMPOSSIBLE!"
The Bomb Stand went towards Tsukasa, as it scanned her body heat. Kagami gasped, "TSUKASA!"
The Bomb Stand called, "LOOK OVER HERE!"
Tsukasa shrieked, "AAAGH! IT'S COMING AFTER ME!"
Peter said, "Now I get it… For some reason, the Bomb Stand is able to scan body heat, and take out the person with the highest heat, like a seeking missile. That would explain the range, and why it's still so powerful!"
He called, "Tsukasa, use THX to protect you! I can't stop time in that distance!"
Tsukasa wept, "I CAN'T! I ALREADY SUMMONED HER, TO TRACK THE KILLER! I SHOULD'VE LISTENED!"
Kagami roared, "YOU IDIOT!"
Peter grumbled, "Gimme a break already, kid…" he summoned Darkness Devil and called, "ONCE MORE! NANTO! THE WORLD!"
He stopped time again, as Peter said, "If I remember correctly, when we asked the clerk, he was holding a cup of tea. Compared to that, our body heat didn't register. But in Tsukasa's case, her frustration increased her temperature. If it detects a hotter source, it'll move on to that."
His Phantoms emerged and built a makeshift campfire, using debris from the shop, and lit it. They finished, as he called, "Okay! Time resume!"
He restarted time, as the Bomb Stand flew towards Peter, after U-turning from Tsukasa. Peter said, "I was right. Since it's drawn to heat, it's heading towards me. If body heat is the result of attacking, then fire is more than enough!"
Kagami asked, "What is he planning?"
He ran out of the way, as the Bomb clicked.
KABOOM!
It exploded, but Peter was caught mildly in the blast, severely. He groaned, "AGH! WHAT POWER!"
He crashed into the display, bloodied and battered. He was unconscious, as Kagami cried, "NO!"
Tsukasa shrieked, "AGENT GIESE!"
Kagami snarled, as Tsukasa went to him, "I'VE HAD ALL I CAN TAKE FROM THIS TURTLE TANK EXPLOSIVE!"
Tsukasa bawled, "WHAT HAVE I DONE? This is all my fault! All because I was trying to track that bastard! If he hadn't stopped time, this wouldn't have happened!"
Kagami called, "FOCUS! That Bomb Stand is somewhere, and we're putting an end to it!"
Tsukasa yelled, "EASY FOR YOU TO SAY! How can you even see it, if you don't even have a Stand?"
Kagami growled, as Tsukasa was trying to revive Peter. The Bomb Stand hissed, "That was not the sensation of human flesh exploding!"
It flashed its eyes, as it called, "Over here!"
They carried Peter away, as Tsukasa sobbed, "It's going to kill us! It's too powerful!"
"SHUT UP!" Kagami yelled.
She barked, "And quit your crying! The Big Guy's down, so it's up to us! He said that heat draws the Bomb Stand as its target, correct?"
She turned on the lights in the hallways, and the Bomb Stand chases after the heated bulbs. Kagami stated, "This is a heat-seeker! If it detects anything hotter than our body heat, it'll track that, first!"
Tsukasa cried, "This is a perfect plan, Sis! I need to stall for time and call Princeton!"
"Who?"
"I'll explain later! Right now, help me drag this guy to safety!"
"But where?"
They arrived at the kitchen, as Tsukasa said, "Sis, watch over Agent Giese, and keep an eye out for that Stand. I'll head to the phone for help, and we'll escape through that door!"
Kagami said, "You do that! I'll make sure that this Bear Bomb doesn't kill any of us! There's lots of kitchen stuff in here that starts to produce heat!"
She turned on the stove, as Kagami gasped, "Huh? It's not lighting up!"
Tsukasa looked at the stovetop, and complained, "Wait… This isn't a gas stove?! Why the hell did the shop owner have an electric stove?! It'll take forever to heat up!"
Kagami called, "Never mind that! I'll handle the heat! GET TO THE DAMN PHONE!"
Tsukasa headed off, as the Bomb was heading closer. It smashed the remaining lights, as Kagami snarled, "Damn! What now?"
She saw a white kettle and cried, "AH! The kettle has hot water! Maybe this will help!"
She tossed the kettle down, but no water came out. Kagami cried, "AAAAGH! IT'S EMPTY!"
Tsukasa stopped, as Kagami was cornered. Tsukasa cried, "SIS!"
The Bomb stared down at Kagami, as Tsukasa growled, "That does it!"
She stated, "I never noticed it, until now… but this thing has a weakness, I'm sure of it! You're really starting to piss me off!"
Her hair went wild, as she growled, "You're nothing but a cold-hearted murderer; a stain on the fabric that is humanity! You would kill innocent people, and now my sister? You enjoy seeing me plead and cry, begging for your mercy, you dreg! SHOULDN'T THE ROLES BE REVERSED?!"
Kagami cried, "TSUKASA?! Huh?"
Tsukasa snarled, "I'VE HAD ALL I CAN TAKE FROM THIS ASSHOLE! WHY AM I THE ONLY ONE WITH THE SAME KIND OF ATTITUDE AS A LITTLE BITCH-BABY WITH THE BAD CASE OF THE SHITS?! THE ONE WHO SHOULD BE RUNNING AWAY… IS YOU, YOU CUNT!"
Kagami gasped in shock, "TSUKASA, WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE!"
Tsukasa roared, as THX grabbed onto the Bomb Stand, "THIS ENDS, ONCE AND FOR ALL!"
THX pushes down Monokuma's Revenge, as Tsukasa was showing a whole lot of courage inside of her, exploding in rage. She called, "You're unrelenting in your pursuit for thermal energy, but that's also your shortcoming! Your inability to stop will be your undoing! I'll make sure you pay for your crimes!"
XXXXX
Meanwhile, Otome looked at her watch, as she said, "Three… two… one…" and nothing.
She groaned, "I don't get it… Monokuma's Revenge should have eradicated the three troublemakers… It's been three minutes, and so far, I couldn't care less what happens to the shoe store. But no matter how strong my opponent is, there's one thing I'm certain – Monokuma's Revenge has no weaknesses."
Her left hand shone in a black aura, and produced a small Monokuma enigma on her hand. She stated, "It's the Ultimate Stand that destroys any enemy, without fail."
XXXXX
Tsukasa and Kagami regrouped, as Kagami was with a downed Peter, "Great… Now that Tsukasa has gotten that thing under control, all that's left is to locate this Princeton guy."
The Bomb Stand rolled off, but Kagami lifted her leg up. It rolled passed her, as the bomb had a small piece of THX's tail, with the word Sizzle on it, emitting heat. Kagami sighed, "Still… Whatever this THX is, Tsukasa has grown to learn how to use it. That pest will be busy, but I doubt it'll catch on, long enough."
Tsukasa dialed the number, as she said, "Kagami, make sure Agent Giese is out of here, while I call Princeton. Luckily, that jackass is as gullible as the donkey chasing a carrot."
Kagami sighed, "You're simple and dumb to pick fatal flaws…"
Chazz responded from the phone, "Princeton residence."
Tsukasa called, "Hello, Princeton? It's Tsukasa! Agent Giese is hurt! I don't think he's going to make it! You and Agent Sakurai get here, shortly! It's kinda my fault, but still, get here fast!"
Chazz asked, "You wanna run that by me again?! What the hell is going on?"
"Just focus on getting here! We found the killer! We had a hunch, at first, but I have her Stand captive!"
"What do you mean "have her Stand captive"? Are you there? It's hard to hear!"
Kagami asked, "Hey, Tsukasa, why is it hot here?"
She saw the stove sizzle, as the oven top was starting to heat up. Tsukasa said, "That's strange. It's hot! I thought I turned it off, moments ago!"
Kagami complained, "How can anyone cook in this damn thing?!"
Chazz called, "COME IN, TSUKASA! Who's that with you?"
The Bomb Stand stopped, as it slowly turned to Tsukasa and Kagami. It called "OVER HERE!"
Kagami cried, "SHIT! IT'S HEADING TOWARDS US!"
Chazz called out, "TSUKASA, WHERE ARE YOU? HURRY UP AND TELL ME, YOU IDIOT!"
Tsukasa called, "Mukadeyu Shoes! HURRY UP AND GET HERE!"
Kagami cried, "WE HAVE NO TIME! RUN!"
Tsukasa yelled, grabbing Peter, and heading to the exit, "DAMN IT! THX'S TAIL IS STILL ATTACHED TO IT!"
They ran out of the shop, as the Bomb Stand exploded, destroying the place from inside. Tsukasa moaned, as she was bleeding, "That hurt… Not only it blew up, the damage transferred to me…"
The Bomb Stand emerged, as it called out, "That was not the sensation of human flesh exploding! GET OVER HERE!"
Tsukasa sobbed, "Just what I didn't need. It's getting ready to attack! And I just used THX's tail!"
Kagami cried, "Now's not the time for pity party! We have to stop this turtle tank, for good!"
Tsukasa roared, "AT THIS POINT, I DON'T CARE! LET'S GO, THX ACT TWO!"
Nothing happened, as Tsukasa cried, "ACT TWO, WHERE ARE YOU? ACT TWO!"
Kagami asked, "Huh? Where did THX go?"
Tsukasa sobbed, "No… It can't be-!"
They gasped, as they saw a brown husk on the floor. Kagami cried, "IS THAT THX ACT TWO?!"
Tsukasa cried, "AAAAAAAAAAAAGH! IT SUDDENLY DIED!"
She then gasped in shock, "Wait… How can it die, if I'm still alive? Wait… If my Stand dies, I die, too… Oh, I forgot! It happened before, when I fought Enju Saion-Ji, a while back… So, that means…"
Kagami asked, "What are you talking about? Your THX is useless now!"
They spotted a figure in a cloud of dust, as Tsukasa cried, "AH! Can it be?"
Monokuma's Revenge has gotten Peter disabled, while Tsukasa's about to be introduced to THX's next form! But what is it? And what's more, will it be enough to stop the Bomb Stand of the Sketch Artist Killer? Stay tuned to the next chapter, and find out!
To be continued…
