Togami and Emily stare down, as they continued to fight, with his Stand, Electro Corp. Emily, armed with her sword and the Ideal Justice Dynamism, was looking for June, who's lost in Casa de Munecas, in mannequin form. But who was that woman in the hood?
Meanwhile, June in a mannequin was still posed in display. The hooded woman was far from her, as she said, "It is time. It is time we have a share of discussion with the two of us. You, my dear, deserve the truth. It is time."
The hooded woman went to the warehouse, as she left the mannequin behind.
Episode 7 – Chapter 2: Electro Corp & Jack and Jill!
Prodigy vs. Legacy!
Genocider Sho was on her way, as she figured it out, "HAH! I just realized that Miss Morose was eyeing that department store! The girl, Nevins, is in there! How sweet it is!"
She arrived at the store, near the entrance, as she smiled, "Perfect. I'm going to enjoy slicing her to ribbons. After that, I'll find Tanukichi and bring him here, alive. And then, maybe find Ayame Kajou and have her the fall girl, once Naegi's done! Kyeeeeehahahahahaha! That boy in pink!"
She blushed, "OOOOOOH! So hot! He'll be the first to go! I cannot wait to have a little fun!"
She took one step, but an arrow whizzed by. Eros #3 flipped the bird at her, on the way. She gasped, "Nani?!"
Nanao called, "So, you were the one that framed Ayame Kajou! You monster!"
Sho gasped, "Oh, shit! The cavalry!"
Beth said, "We learned about it from my Psychic Powers, just as I was about to look for my sister! You're not going near her! YOU framed Kajou for murdering a police officer, and leaving Okuma wide open!"
Sho snarled, "Well, well, well. We'll see about that. Hey, twerp! You care for your sister, and I learned that you killed Leon, the baseball player!"
Beth said, "He had it coming." Nanao nodded.
Sho barked, "Listen, shithead! I'm not here to play dolls! Bring your rabbits to me, and I will slice and dice them!"
Nanao called, "Step aside, Beth Nevins. Let me take care of this woman. You are with the Hitman Squad? Who are you? We would like to know who you are."
Sho shrilled, "Kyeeeeehahahahahahahaha! Looks like Little Miss Robot wants to know who I am, for her epitaph!"
Nanao said, "It is rude to fight you, without a proper introduction."
She split into two and cackled, "GLADLY! Polite as ever, tin-tits!"
Beth gasped, "Wha-? She split into two clones?"
Nanao said, "I think that is her Stand."
Beth complained, "Another one?! Good gravy, you are all Stand Users, and we had our suspicions! I thought you were one of the norms."
Sho smiled, "Not really. ALL of La Squadra are Stand Users! How is SHE, the robot, a Stand User, and not you, twerp? Well, let's find out, since I want a taste of the shit that killed Kuwata! But my main goal is your fucking sister! I am called Toko Fukawa, but that Miss Morose's stupid true form! Behind the veil of this ugly cunt is yours truly, La Squadra's master serial killer – Genocider Sho!" She and her Stand posed, as it resembles Sho, only more shadowy and robotic, "And allow me to introduce you bitches to my Stand – Jack and Jill!" she then confessed, "You two babies figured me out! Yes, it was me, since I wanted to have Kajou go to jail, and have Naegi bail her out, for us to have fun with! But lo and behold, Miss Frankenstein was acquitted, because her fingerprints never touched the murder weapon!" She unveiled her scissors and lashed, "Dun-dun-dunnnnnnnn!"
Nanao cried, "What the hell is she doing with scissors?"
Sho explained, "Buy these bitches a clue, since these are my weapons of choice! But lucky for you, I cannot kill you adorable girls! Master Togami said to oust June Nevins, and that's what I am doing! Like hell I'd go after R2-Double-D2 and Bratty Cottonfuck!"
They were appalled, as Nanao squeaked, "Double-D2?!"
Beth squeaked, "Cottonfuck?!"
They boomed in a fiery aura, as Sho smiled, "Kyeehahahahahahahahaha! What losers! Just when I was about to end the life of June Nevins, one step closer to Kana Koumoto, I run into you two asshats! I understand how you feel about protecting your family, twerp! Too bad you're going to die, anyways, since I'm ordered to kill Kana Koumoto's mafioso, so suck it, pint-size!"
She continued, "I joined the famiglia for the blood and gore, not for the drugs and cash! That's Miss Morose's bag! So, now you know, you are going to suffer!"
Beth called, "I think you are going to say otherwise! I'll make you suffer, along with your damned Stand!"
Nanao aimed, as Jack and Jill deflected the shots. Sho called, "2 versus 1 is my bag, but I believe that you two will be in the midst of suffrage, once you're cut clean! Togami's already got Emily in his grip, but you two assholes are joining her! Once you joined the famiglia, you can't go back. Unfortunately, I'm not IN the famiglia, anymore! Ever learn why we're called La Squadra? We're traitors to the boss! And we want the spoils of war, not you greenhorns!"
The Stand attacked them, as Nanao avoided the scissors slash. She cried, "HEY! I just bought these clothes, you stronzo!"
She sighed, as she smiled, "Good. No cuts."
Beth cried, "Nanao, this is on me! Stay in distance!" She called out, "Choujin Powers – Spirit of the Rabbit! Come forth!"
She transformed into Rabbit Princess, as Sho giggled, "So, this little fuck's a Choujin!" She bit her thumb and whimpered, "She's so cute!" and hollered, "Well, that gives me another reason to kill you!"
Beth called out, "Let's spare the theatrics, Sho Nuff! I'll face you two freaks, blade-to-blade!"
She summoned her rabbits, and cried out, "Boys, sic her!"
The rabbits lunged at Sho and called out, "Jack and Jill, skin those bunnies!"
She was able to hack away at the bunnies, as Beth cried, "Are you kidding me? They got shredded in one slice!"
"Kyeehahahahahahahahaha!" Sho cackled.
Nanao cried, "I am having enough of that ridiculous laugh of yours! Octo-Eros! Target Acquired!" She fired with Eros #1, 2, & 6, but Jack and Jill deflected each shot, at ease. Nanao was stunned, "No way. She took the shots, dead-on, like it was nothing! Toko Fukawa, or whatever she is called, is a freak!"
Beth called, "I've had all I can take of this monster!" She summoned more rabbits, and then Sho avoided the onslaught, slashing them into cotton carcasses. She flipped forward and smiled, "Hey, Bunny Bitch! Is that all you got?" She gasped, as she saw a rabbit hanging upside-down, on her sleeve, "WHAT THE HELL? HOW DID SHE-?"
The rabbit bit onto her arm, as she screamed, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" She dropped down, as Beth smiled, "My rabbits appear, anywhere. Call it a hunch, but the second you killed more rabbits, I had a couple sneak from below, near your naughty bits. And once you prepared for your offense, you didn't see it coming."
She prepared a punch, inhaling her breath, "NOW! Time to give this Split-Personality a quick taste of Ty Ko Ky!"She landed a swift right to her face, but Sho landed on her feet.
Beth called, "Well, you are such a bloody treat. You have something to share?"
Jack and Jill went towards her, as Beth avoided the blade strikes. Beth called, "You're lucky I am only 10! My Mommy told me not to play with scissors! And it's as sane as you!"
Sho cried, "I'll kill you, you Rabbit Bitch! Bite me, will you?"

Togami's Stand struck at Emily, as Emily clashed with Electro Corp's strike. Emily stumbled down, as Togami smiled, "You're challenging, child. Correct me if I am wrong, but my Stand has the ability to strike down and give you such a jolt. Care to ask what my ability is? It goes without saying, as Electro Corp is able to give your body a jump start, knocking you down."
Emily twitched, as she moaned, "AAAGH! What the hell?"
"Five volts. If it were direct, and it's 50 volts. Four times, and a deadly death awaits you, like a voltage surge in your veins. And that would consider me, Byakuya Togami, the winner. And you call yourself a genius?"
Emily snarled, "You bastard. I won't lose to you, you annoying cur!" She stood in place, as Electro Corp charges at her. He called out, "NOW! Electro Corp, make quick work on this tramp!"
She ducked out of the way, but was struck to the knee. She dropped to one knee, as she shivered, "Gah! AGH! That's 75 volts. Your knees are lethal."
Togami smiled, "If you hadn't had that aura shield, you'd be dead. As for you, I dare say that it ends your life. No matter what, you're just prey for Naegi's way."
"Naegi? He's the leader of La Squadra, isn't he, cazzo?"
"Yes. But we work in packs, with no leadership. Naegi gives us the orders to take out our prey, since you joined Koumoto's famiglia."
Emily kneeled down and snarled, "This thing is annoying me. This Stand has electrical shots, like a shock to the stomach." She pondered, "Outwitting it is a start, but to disable its electrical current, that's a tricky job. Rubber won't work, but it helps. So, I need to find a way to stop him."
She put her sword away and said, "That sword of mine is sort of a lightning rod. But luckily, I'll use my fists. So, have at you, four-eyed pomp!"
She did a boxing stance, as she said, "I have endurance, unlike me Mum, but I can still beat your sorry arse! Fist or blades, I'll best you!"
He said, "You can try, girl! But it matters not what you do to me, as you will understand! Electro Corp has the ability to stop hearts, and make you suffer stoppage. It's a reversal of fortunes, as you are about to die. You're in the famiglia, and we are sick of those that side with Koumoto's band of cazzos."
Emily and Electro Corp clash fists, as they avoid each punch. Emily blocked the punch, but a surge goes through her forearm. She growled, "DAMN! Withstand the pain, Emily."
He called, "Even if you deflect my punches, your heart's about to stop! There's a reason why you're looking at the perfection of man! I am the Ultimate Prodigy! You're just a quack Brainiac!"
He lands a punt to her chest, but she dodged out of the way.

Sho continued to her attacks on Beth, avoiding Jack and Jill's scissor strikes. But Beth is easily cut from the skin. She cried, "AH! They hurt!"
Sho called, "What's the matter? Not enough? My Stand's got speed, when it comes to blade strikes! These beauties never failed me before!" She hacked and slashed, as Beth's skin had very little cuts, all over her bare skin on her arms and legs. Sho said that she's aiming at the neck. Beth cried, as she avoided the scissors again, "Uh, Nanao, a little help here?"
Nanao called, "I am waiting for an opening, Beth Nevins! But this Genocider Sho is fast, likewise Jack and Jill! I cannot aim!"
Beth griped, "Come on! She's superfast?! What the hell is wrong with these mafia freaks?"
Sho called, "Time to die, piccola merda!" She swung down, but Beth was struck down, slashing most of her clothes off. She growled, as she held her waist, bleeding a little. Nanao cried, "Beth Nevins!"
Sho called, "Aw, did I rip apart Bunny Girl? You're next on the chopping block, Robo-fica!"
"Toko Fukawa!" She gasped, "How dare you call me the C-word! And yes, I know that it is Italian! I have ways of saying what you are, you Italian bitch!"
She shone her eyes red and hissed, "Sarai licenziato, figlio di puttana!" She added, "If you understand that, you are in trouble."
She fired, as Sho avoided each shot. She roared, "TESTA DE CAZZO!"
Nanao roared, "BRING IT, STRONZO!"
They clashed, as Nanao fired more arrow shots to Sho, nearly nicking her clothes. Nanao easily avoided the blades, as Sho cried, "HOLD STILL! YOU LITTLE ROBOTIC TRAMP! I'll sell you to the junkyard!"
Nanao kicked her down, and aimed at her face. She called out, "And next, I will attempt to pull out your 300-mile long tongue of yours, you no-good cagacazzo!"
Sho cried, "How the hell are you learning Italian?"
Nanao said, "Just an update that Master installed into me. I understand your nice words, since I have a strong high IQ."
Sho barked, "Eat shit!" She jabbed at Nanao's gut, but Eros #7 & 8 caught the scissors. Eros 7 called, "Who eats shit now?"
Nanao leapt backwards and said, "It appears that she has no surrender in her. Beth Nevins, assist me!"
Beth said, "No need. In fact, Miss Morose here just gave me an opening. I figured you out, with your scissor attacks."
Sho asked, "Uh, ex-squeeze me? How can you figure me out?"
Beth called, "Nanao! Listen to me! Beth Nevins, what are you trying to say?"
Nanao cried, "Beth Nevins, what are you trying to say?" She gasped, "EH?"
"And that is when you say "Hey, fuckhead! What are you pulling?" And go!"
Sho roared, "Hey, fuckhead! What are you pulling?" She curled her tongue and gasped, "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?" She griped, "HEY, HOW DID YOU KNOW WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY!"
Nanao cried, "Yeah, Beth Nevins! What the hell are you even saying?"
Beth smirked, "I'm saying… … … Little Morose is already defeated."
Three rabid bunnies appeared from the shadows, as Nanao gasped, "WHAT?"
Beth smirked, "Of course, if you manage to avoid the bunnies, you're left wide open! See what happens now, shithead?"
Sho pushed Nanao off and cackled, "FRESH MEAT! Kyeeeehahahahahahahahaha!" She sliced each rabid rabbit into nothing, but Beth appeared from behind with some clackers, specially-made with rabbit ears on it.
"LOOKS LIKE JOKE'S ON YOU, SHITHEAD!" She threw the bunny clackers towards Sho, and roared, "Beth Nevins' Special – Clacker Boomerang!"
Sho gasped, and then it bounced onto her wrists, knocking the scissors off. She groaned, "AGH! HURTS BAD, DON'T IT!"
She bent backwards, as Nanao cried, "Right! Beth Nevins, you are a lifesaver! Now that she is unarmed, she is wide open! EROS! FIRE!"
She shot five bullets at Sho with her wristgun, but Sho bent back up and cried, "OHHHHHHHHHHHH! NO! I AM DEAD!"
SLASH! CLANG!
"Just kidding! Kyeeehahahahahahahaha!" She deflected them with an extra pair of scissors.
Nanao cried, "WHAT?"
"Yeah, I got an endless supply of these! Try and search my body for an extra pair! You think those were my only pairs? Wrong answer, tin-tits!"
Beth cried, "Shit! What is with this idiot?"
Nanao said, "We are in Code Red, Beth Nevins. We cannot let her go near June Nevins!"
Sho smirked, "Funny, you know where she is. Miss Morose already know where she is! SHE'S AT THE STORE, CASA DE MUNECAS, CARING FOR THAT BOY-TOY IN PINK!"
They gasped, as Beth cried, "She figured it out?"
Nanao cried, "Not good! June Nevins is in there!"
Sho cackled, "And YOU led me to her! Now move the fuck on, and let me kill her, before I kill you!"
Nanao called out, "You just try! We are not letting you go near her! For June Nevins and her dream, we will not let you harm her!"
Beth huffed, "I was gonna say that." She called, "But no one hurts my sister, scumbag! Now, make like a pea in soup and split!"
Sho giggled, "Sorry, but you're going to have to try harder than that, before you stop me!"
Nanao said, "Taking her down is the only course of action left. We have to kill her. She is a traitor to the mafia!"
Beth cried, "Tell me something I don't know!"
"Do you want to win, or not, Beth Nevins?"
"Yes, and that means cutting this creep into cutlets!"
"I like the sound of that."
They prepared for another round, as Sho held her scissors, "Okay, ladies! Who wants to die first? How about I poke at your stupid chest, robot, so I want to see what you bleed out? OR YOU! I want to dissect your adorable body!"
"How sick are you?" Beth cried, "Are you into girls with small boobs?"
"Hey, news flash, Rabbit Sack! I kill hot boys that get my pussy on! OOOOH, there I go, slathering on about my naughty bits!"
Nanao roared, "Freak!" She charged at her, as Sho called, "Jack and Jill~! ASSIST ME! HACK HER APART!"
SLASH!
The Stand slashed off her right arm. Nanao gasped, as she cried, "Wha-? NO!"
Beth shouted, "NO!"
Sho called, "DO IT AGAIN!"
Jack and Jill slashed off Nanao's left leg, and then she collapsed. Nanao moaned, "Danger! My limbs are hacked off!" She wailed, "AND THAT WAS MY FIRST NEW PAIR OF CLOTHES THAT I BOUGHT!"
Sho celebrated, flailing her blades, "YEAH, I TOOK DOWN THE DEFENSIVE! NOW TO SKIN THAT BUNNY ALIVE! THAT ROBOT CANNOT ATTACK ME, IS SHE'S TORN APART! Kyeeehahahahahahahahaha!"
Beth thought, "Crap! Nanao fires with her right arm! That's her main weapon! This isn't right! Jack and Jill has an infinite amount of scissors and shears that makes Johnny Depp go into shame!"
Nanao kneeled up, with just one arm and one leg, "Why you… This was supposed to be my great day ever. AND YOU RUIN IT!"
She fired from her left arm and roared, "DIE!"
Sho cried, as Jack and Jill blocked the projectiles, "SHE FIRES LEFT-HANDED?!"
Beth cried, "I forgot. Emily built her, and she updated her with new gadgets! Wow! Nanao is built for battle!"
Nanao called out, "TRY AND DEFLECT THESE, WHORE! OCTO-EROS! KILL HER!"
Jack and Jill deflected all the shots, but the Eros surrounding her started to pass and kick each shot, at precision, aiming back to Jack and Jill.
Eros 1 called, "This is for Nanao Kashima, our master!"
Eros 2 cried, "Eat lead, shitface!"
Eros 6 yelled, "Heads up!"
They fired in all directions, but Jack and Jill were pierced completely. Sho cried in pain, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH! What the hell is she? I disabled her weaponry!"
Beth whined, "WHAT ARE YOU EVEN, ROBOT?"
Nanao smirked, "Emily Maynard gave me a couple precautions, in case my right is jammed. I do not fire with just one arm. And that is for the clothes that you destroyed!"
Sho moaned, "Impressive. Tin Bimbo still have firepower!"
Beth shouted, "She's still standing? What the hell!"
Sho cried out, charging with Jack and Jill, "WELL, I'M NOT LETTING YOU!"
SLASH!
They both get slashed down, with Nanao and Beth's clothes torn with some rips. They stumbled down, as Beth griped, "BITCH! You DO know that I am still a child!"
Sho roared, "Jack and Jill! SHUT THAT BRAT UP!"
Nanao dove in and yelled, "BETH NEVINS!"
She was stabbed in the back, as she took the blow for Beth. She landed faced down, as Sho cheered, "Kyeeehahahahahahahaha! Down for the count, robo-girl! That's one! Now you're stabby time, Bunny Brat!"
Nanao moaned, "Ungh… That woman… She's… not human… Beth… Nevvvvv…" She died down, as Beth growled, "Damn you!"
Sho chuckled, "Aw, she's dead! That means we're all alone! You and me, one on one! And after that, your sister is mine! OH! And Master should be killing Emily, right about now."

Togami continued to attack Emily, as she nearly avoided the heart-stopping attacks. Emily cried, "BASTARDO!" She thought, "Damn it. This guy's a heavy hitter."
He called, "Why not give up, while you can, genius? I outsmarted you, in every possible move! Can a genius of the sword stop a brilliant mind of the family's legacy?"
Emily said, "In a word… YES!" She held her sword up and said, "I DARE YOU TO STRIKE ME, VARLET!"
He smirked, "I see, so, you decided to sheath your knife, so it can cause extra damage. No matter! Electro Corp, strike her down, and swift!"
The Stand charged at Emily, as Emily gripped her sword, "Wrong answer, you spoiled prince! HEADS UP!"
She threw the sword upwards, as Togami cried, "IGNORE IT! GET CLOSER!"
Emily thought, "I have to do this right. This is Mother's technique. I have to aim carefully!" She clutched her fist and roared, "Ignoring the sword was a setback! MAYNARD LIGHTNING STRIKE!"
CRACK! BOOM!
The sword was struck by a wayward lightning bolt, with the blade pointing towards the Stand. The bolt of lightning struck the Stand, as he cried, "WHAT?"
Emily called, as she grabbed the sword, "Impressed? Who's a commoner now, bastardo?"
He was shocked, as he said, "I like your cleverness, knowing that you would perform an attack that seemed amateur-like. But all it did was show some power. So, suffice to say that you, Emily Maynard, are a worthy adversary. But it matters not to me! This day belongs to me, child! I will destroy you, leaving your body in ashes, after lethal punches by Electro Corp's massive retaliation!"
It landed a punch towards her, as he cried, "YOU LOSE!"
SLASH!
Emily called, "WRONG!" She blocked the punch. But he cried, "As I said, YOU LOST! YOU'RE WIDE OPEN!"
She pushed him back, as Togami cried, "What? But how? What is she doing?"
She said, "Face facts. That bolt of lightning wasn't for you. Though, I'm surprised that it struck your Stand. Too bad that I was aiming for my sword! By much power from God himself, he launches a fiery bolt of lightning that not even the Gods themselves would block away from! In short, my blade was an act of God, as he assisted me from the Heavens! The Maynard Lightning technique powers up and blocks all that has your type of abilities into nullification! So, your Stand may have electrical fatal blows, but when my blade is imbued by the powers of thunder, I made sure that you won't harm my body again!"
Togami cried, "Impossible! You were built for this, like you already know!"
"I am Emily Kathleen Maynard, daughter of Miranda, and granddaughter of a legacy in BOTH the Maynard and the Wyler name! I AM A WYLER AND A MAYNARD! Brains! Skill! Agility! Strength! Power! I HAVE IT ALL! And it's okay to kill someone, as long as he or she is evil! AND YOU, BYAKUYA TOGAMI, ARE EVIL! NOW DIE!"
She slashed down on Electro Corp, and Togami felt the attack on his chest. He groaned, "Damn! She knew! This girl planned ahead! This is the same brat that killed Maizono and Hagakure, all because we set up the frame job on Ayame Kajou!"
Emily stopped and asked, "What did you say?" She seethed, "IT WAS YOU?" Her aura boomed bigger, as she hollered, "IT WAS YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU?"
He said, "Well, yes. But Fukawa did the dirty work, all to lure in the Okuma boy. But we needed Kajou, too, so-."
"Stop talking!" Emily snarled, "You made her suffer. She suffered enough! BACK THE HELL OFF! ASSHOLE!"
She charged at his Stand and hacked at him, but blocked every sword strike, in rage and anger. He gasped, as he cried, "THAT GIRL IS PSYCHOTIC! And I met Fukawa! ELECTRO CORP! STOP HER!"
He tried to block each attack, but Emily's rage was unstoppable. She cried, "YOU HURT MY FRIENDS, YOU HURT KAJOU, AND YOU MADE ME SUFFER HELL! YOU'RE EVIL!"
He growled, "ANNOYING LITTLE FECCIA! MERDA! SHE WON'T STOP! WHAT ARE YOU?"
"MAYNARD SLASH!" She slashed forward, but Electro Corp blocked the sword strike.
"I admit that you're strong, but not strong enough, cazzo." He said, "But it seems that you just don't care what happens to your friends."
"My beef is with you. I'll stab you in the heart, until you bleed dry, stronzo! I'll make you wish you NEVER go near Ayame Kajou again, fica di cazzo!"
He gasped, "Wh-what did she call me?"
"I'll admit it. You bested me in battle, but know this, when you win, you feel with it for the rest of your life. In life, there are winners and losers. But with you in the middle of it, it's no contest." Emily shone in gold, "Even so, what you did to Ayame was despicable, but she was bailed out! You already lost that battle, but you're going to lose THIS ONE!"
POW!
She was punched in the gut, and then grasped onto her neck. He called, "I suggest you stay silent, brat! I will not be taken in by your parlor tricks!"
She gagged, "You know, when, ugh, you clasped onto me, that would give me such a shock. But you said that, ungh, that… that a blow to the parts would lead to a vicious shock!"
"That is correct! And don't worry, once Electro Corp grabs you, your punches will be taken back to you, tenfold, making your death quick!"
"OH? Well, what if I strike back? You win. I'll admit defeat, but only if I TRY THIS, FIRST! ARIAAAAAAAAAA!"
POW!
She landed a dropkick to the stomach, and Togami felt a huge burst of energy, searing in pain. "AGH! IMPOSSIBLE! THAT LITTLE BITCH!"
Emily broke free and said, "Scientifically possible. The death blows of your power, when clasped on, increases tenfold. But you were left wide open, as a strike to you, while your Stand connects to a person's throat region results in a connected send-back."
He cried, "BUT HOW? I THOUGHT MY STAND WAS PERFECT! How could I suffer a flaw that not even YOU wouldn't figure out? ARE YOU SAYING MY STAND IS FLAWED? MY STAND REPRESENTS THE ALPHA AND OMEGA!"
"Well, your Omega just gave you a thrashing, varlet! Even if you grab onto me, or, here's a theory, what if I grab onto YOU? Will it work?"
She clasped onto the Stand, and then stabbed him in the shoulder. He cried out in pain, with sparks inside his body. She cried, "JUST AS I THOUGHT! When someone gets assaulted by your Zeus Blows, Electro Corp turns you into a fried corpse! But when the Stand grabs you, and gets struck, or the other way around when you grab Electro Corp, 'twas you that gets the tenfold dishing!"
Togami staggered, as he growled, "Damn it! That little-! She actually found me out! If she doesn't grab me, or I hold her, I'll win!"
He struck, but she avoided the strike. He cried out, "No! She! She avoided it?! NO! I will NOT BE TAKEN IN! I am Byakuya Togami, DAMMIT! KILL THAT GIRL, ELECTRO CORP!"
The Stand charged, as Emily prepared, "Very well, you won't admit defeat? Then I'll be more than happy to waste you away!"
She held her sword high and swung down, "GOOD LUCK USING PEOPLE, WITHOUT AN ARM!"
He called, "This is justice! YOU are not to be trifled with! But you left out one small detail! While my Stand has a flaw, it's still useful in battle. Not just physical attacks, but look closely!"
SOCK!
It punched the ground, and it suddenly sent a huge vibration of electricity to the ground. Emily was caught in the tremors, as she cried, "WHA-? NO WAY! It can do that, too?"
She fell on her butt, dropping her sword, as Togami adjusted himself, "And that, woman, is why the Togami Family is the best there is. Dishonor my name, and you will suffer! No one dishonors my family legacy, unlike your band of sword-wielding barbarians!"
He adjusted his glasses and pointed out, "I WIN! No one can match my genius of Electro Corp! Flawed as it is, but proven a strong Stand! Pinned to the ground, I, Byakuya Togami, will finish you off! And once you're dead, June Nevins and your friends die by Genocider Sho's hands. And soon, Naegi will have Koumoto, all to ourselves. You've already failed, Maynard! You have lost this battle!"
Emily snickered, as she was down, "Fail? I failed this adventure? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha…" She sneered, "Screw that! I happen to be of the bloodline of Great Heroes, NOT barbarians! You think that you'd besmirch my honor? Not quite. I only joined this famiglia, because June made me do it, and also because I made a slip-up with the mob! So, yes! I killed Leaky-Eyed Lucca, because he tried to strike back, only I fought in self-defense! Law of the jungle – survival is the key. June has a dream, and I'm going along with the ride, just to help her with this dream, so I can go home and not do this shit again! But when you harm her, my friends, AND my family, I have no choice but to honor that dream! But the moment you unleash your Stand to me, voltage or no voltage… … …" she sat up and roared, "I WILL END YOUR LIFE, FOR GOOD, PAUPER! I don't give a damn, anymore! FAILURE IS NOT IN MY VOCABULARY!"
He smirked, "So be it. Finish her off, Electro Corp!"
He charged at her, as she thought, "Right. At the right moment, I'm left with one option left. If I can't stop the Stand…" She avoided the Stand's attack, and raced towards Togami, "Then the Stand User dies! If I eliminate Togami, his Stand goes away!"
He gasped, "What? She's headed towards me? ELECTRO CORP, PROTECT ME!"
It dove towards her, as she cried, "NOW!" She ducked out of the way, as he cried, "NO! RECALL!"
SOCK!
His own Stand punched him in the face, with sheer force. Electro Corp vanished, as he gagged, "She… She got me… That girl has… outsmarted me, using my own attacks!" he coughed out blood, as he thought, "As I pictured. I won the battle, but I was careless to think that I underestimated her power."
He fell to the ground, as she said, "So, your Stand is perfection, and the peak of your legacy. Too bad that it was outsmarted by Maynard Blood. The old saying goes: nobody's perfect."
He crawled to her, as he snarled, "You little-. I'll g-get you… for this…"
Emily nodded, but replied, "I cannot kill you, unless you do as I say. I want out of this mafioso lifestyle, and you should, too. You're better than that. Abandon the Hitman Squad, and rebuild yourself in society. June would've said that, but I agree. Even mobsters that betray its own kind get second chances. But if you dare to strike me, I will end your life, and I won't go back on my word. I give my word. The battle is mine, Sir Togami!"
She walked off, as she concluded, "Now, make your choice."
He got up and said, "You were chosen, under your free will, because of Nevins. To be frank, I was under Naegi's orders, and was against joining and defecting the famiglia. Then, if that is what you offer me, that's fine. I quit."
He then turned around and said, "But someday, our paths will cross again. With only Naegi, Fukawa, and two others left in La Squadra, I suggest you count your blessings that I defected to not work for despair."
Emily said, "I want their names. Naegi is one name, but who are the others?"
Togami said, "Really? Curious, are we? You'll see them, soon enough. But don't worry. They're waiting, as they want Koumoto, and not you. But since you're curious to know, I will tell you, since I defect."
He then said the names to his fellow La Squadra members: Kyoko Kirigiri and Aoi Asahina. Emily nodded, as she held her sword, "On your way with winged feet. And do not come back, or else you will die. Heed my warning. This is penance towards what you planned against all of us, including Ayame Kajou! But I have one more question…" She asked him, "Why Tanukichi Okuma? What do you want with him, anyways?"
Togami walked off and said, "That's none of your business. I chose to quit this lifestyle and move on. I'm done playing The Boss's games. Meet the boss, and you'll see why. I am done."
He departed New York, after that, as he concluded, "One more thing, tell Fukawa, after she finds June Nevins that she's on her own. I'm not picking her up. I could care less if she dies, anyway."
Emily agreed, and then raced off to Casa de Munecas, to meet with Beth & Nanao.
[Byakuya Togami – Electro Corp: SURRENDERED (defected from La Squadra; whereabouts unknown)]
XXXXX
Back at the outside of Casa de Munecas, near the alley, Sho was alone with Beth, after Nanao suffered a severe injury. Beth tried to strike, but Sho was no match for her. She slashed down, but Beth retreated to Nanao. Sho cackled, "YES! I have beaten the Rabbit! You're no rabbit! You're a weak kitten!"
Beth moaned, "She's too fast! Too clever for my tricks! But there's no way I can lose to this Primadonna from the Psycho Ward!"
Sho cried out, "NOW, LEMME CLIP YOUR FACE OFF, YOU LITTLE SHIT!" She rushed towards the downed Beth, as she was preparing one final attack, but…
CLANG!
Emily arrived, just in time, as Sho was smacked in the chest by her sword. She said, "Sorry, you were saying?"
Beth cried, "EMILY!"
Emily stepped back and said, "What happened?"
Beth said, "This freak, Genocider Sho, hacked and broke Nanao!"
Emily nodded, "I understand." She smirked, "Eros 6, are you there?"
It appeared in Sho's hair, as he called, "YO! You called, Emily Maynard?"
Emily said, "She's faking it, is she?"
Sho cried, "HUH? HOW DID YOU GET IN MY HAIR, YOU LITTLE MIDGET?"
Emily said, "Thought so. She was playing possum, just to strike back, for a final miracle play."
Nanao's eyes clicked open, as she said, "Master? You came?"
Emily said, "Yeah. And apparently, she did a number on you."
Nanao removed her arm from her back, the same severed arm that Sho cut off, and saw a pair of scissors attached to it. She replied, "Well, it did work. Only I did not expect your arrival, Emily Maynard."
Emily said, "You two stay back. I heard everything from Togami. He told me… what she did to Kajou!"
Beth huffed, "No shit."
Sho cried, "Awwwww, ya got me! You bested my master, Togami? Well, it's a shame, only I didn't hear you say you killed him! I want his bod, so badly!"
Emily said, "He's spared. I chose to give him mercy."
Beth cried, "WHAT?"
She added, "OH! And he also said this to you: "I quit.". Apparently, he was no match for Maynard Blood. Some Prodigy."
Sho gasped, "He-? He abandoned me? NO! IT'S NOT TRUE! IT'S-! IT'S NOT-! Not-! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-! AAAAAAAAAAAH-CHOO!"
She sneezed again, and she reverted back to being Toko Fukawa, her timid self. She gasped, "Oh? Wh-where am I?"
Emily asked, "Ehhhhh?"
Nanao asked, "Did she-?"
Beth whispered, "No way. She sneezed, becoming that psychopath?"
Nanao said, "So, a trigger. Genocider Sho is Toko Fukawa. That sneeze made her become the latter."
Toko moaned, "Ungh, what happened? My head hurts."
Beth said, "Uhhhhh, perhaps we should leave."
Emily said, "Not without June! She's somewhere! Now, let's go!"
Nanao cried, "But, Emily Maynard, she is in Casa de Munecas!"
Emily said, "No, she's not. She could be anywhere. I'm taking Nanao home to repair her. YOU go back to the club and protect Okuma! When I'm done, we'll search for June!"
Beth nodded, "Right. Regroup back here!"
They departed, as Toko grinned secretly, "Okuma's in a strip club? Oh, boy. This is cool." She smiled, "Togami abandoned me, but once I find June in Casa de Munecas, I will have him back on the team, and we will have Okuma in our hands."
She giggled, as she snuck off, waiting for the right time. That evening, the mannequin of June was in the workshop, standing in place. Luther left to close up shop, as the hooded woman returned. She saw June and said, "I believe we are done here, in your wooden shell. I command you to come to life."
Nothing. June remained a mannequin, as she grinned, "Nothing. Good. Well, that is fine, because I have plans for you. June Nevins, awaken."
A spirit appeared from inside the statue, as she was in a ghostly form. June gasped, as she whispered, "Huh? Where am I?"
The woman said, "Welcome, June Nevins. Now, you will never heed away from my warnings."
June whispered, "You… WHO ARE YOU? What did you do to me?"
The hooded woman said, "I transferred your soul into my small pendant. But I have snagged some essence, and trapped your energy into this mannequin of yourself. Very alluring, isn't it?"
"Reminds me of Mom." June said, "It's beautiful." She paused and replied, "But, I want to know. Why do this? Just, what is the meaning of this? You seemed… familiar… … …"
She undid her hood, in a smile. She revealed herself, as she said, "June Nevins, I believe you don't recognize me. But my power… … … … …is your power."
She has long black hair, purple eyes, and an emotionless look on her face. June recognized her, as she suddenly had flashbacks from five years ago, when she was introduced with psychic powers, and how she stopped the Elder God, Junior, son of Bog Nougat.
"You're… You're…"
June was in the presence of an old face – Saki Hanajima.
"It's me, June Nevins. We meet, at last, face-to-face."
