Last time if you recall, June and friends are escaping Venice from the boss, after going through perhaps an escape route. They make one final pit stop, before they leave, and head to where Tanukichi's father hails - Sardinia. It could be a clue to where The Boss is.

But elsewhere, disaster struck, as Pets' tongue was cleaved off, and replaced back on, mysteriously controlled by Nekomaru Nidai's Stand, The Mouth Smasher. Meanwhile, his partner, Gundham Tanaka's Stand, Lockjaw, has June Nevins in his grip.

The water suddenly dripped, as Pets looked behind her. She gasped, "SHIT! There's water leaking from the pipe!"

Lockjaw emerged, as the puddle was closer to Beth. It leapt up, as she cried, "BETH!"

June saw, and cried, "SIS!" She shoved her out of the way, and then…
GNASH!
Lockjaw bit onto her neck. June coughed, as she was being bitten, as Beth shrieked, "SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS!"

Pets gasped in horror, "NO! JUNE! JUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNE!"

Gundham said, from above, "A direct hit! We got the blonde girl's attack, trying to save her sister and that whelp, Hetada!"

Nekomaru said, "Won't be long now, buddy! Even if Pets warned the others, it's of no help. What do you say we have a little fun with them?"

Gundham cackles, "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Sounds great!"

Meanwhile, June is being dragged away by Lockjaw, as Pets said, "Whatever that Stand is, I have to stop it from taking June away! GALAXY TRAIN!"

Galaxy Train chases after Lockjaw, but ducks away into the puddle. Pets growled, "No matter where it goes, it can travel through any liquid, like a hopscotch. So, no matter the amount, that shark freak can travel endlessly!"

Nekomaru smirked, "I must say that you caught a whopper, thanks to Lockjaw."

Gundham said, "Yes. Now we end her. June Nevins has life-giving powers that aides her allies. Eliminate the Nevins girl, Koumoto's band of perdenti fall like dominoes."

Nekomaru stated, "True. But let's not waste our energy with the others and just waste the girl. The intel says that Hetada's Stand detects carbon dioxide. Giving that she still lives, there's a chance that these two brats may try to save her. Puddle jumping won't escape Pets' noticeable radar. But… If we eliminate her, then the little brat there won't have anything but her rabbits, as does the intel reported, thanks to an eyewitness in Venice, following Asahina's death. The last thing we want is that prepubescent troll getting the upper hand. Pets is already ragged and upset over her radar."

Gundham smirked, "Yes… I'll make sure that June Nevins breathes no more."


ACT V: Episode 10, Chapter 2: The Mouth Smasher and Lockjaw!
Spirit from the Skies, aides the Famiglia!


Pets gasped, "Oh, shit! What am I gonna do?"

June croaked, "URK! I was… wrong! Instead of one Stand, we're dealing… with two! That bastardo!"

Pets attacked, but Lockjaw evades. Beth watched on in fright. She shivered, "No way… Did they figure us out, already?"

Pets hunts down Lockjaw, and finds it on the wall, in a small puddle. "THERE! So, it can travel around, and play at my attacks! The more I attack, my more chances I get to fire! But it's so fast, I can't keep up! But as long as I stay one step ahead, I'll stop him!"

Nekomaru roared, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING? Kill June Nevins now! Hetada's detecting your breathing, while you're flailing around!"

Gundham said, "Oh, don't worry, Nekomaru! I've already got it covered."

Pets finds Lockjaw, and Pets roared, "FOUND YOU! ATTACK!"

Galaxy Train attacks, but it struck June. Beth cried, "NO!"

Pets stopped, as she cried, "No… Why did I attack June?"

June sank, as Pets cried, "It got away! Damn it! Why did it get away? I can't sense its breathing now! Why is my Stand not helping me?"

Beth was infuriated, as she sensed June's life force, "Sis… You're still alive… I understand. I will find the assholes that did this to you."

Pets asked, "Huh? What are you saying?"

Beth said, "No. We cannot hurt the Stands. Our safest bet is to find the Stand Users, and eliminate them!"

Pets asked, "How can we? They're probably far away from us!"

Gundham said, "Done and done. The Nevins girl's a goner. Lockjaw's taking her to the voyage in the sewer, and will drop her off in the canal, for her final drop-off."

Nekomaru gasped, "Wait… Hold on, that brat!"

"What?"

"That brat said she is still alive! The little trollop, Beth, I think! And moreover, something's off! Lockjaw got away from Pets, and she shouted that it got away! Right now, The Mouth Smasher is affixed into her tongue. There's no way she'd be telling the truth now! How in the hell did she speak the truth now?"

He then shouted, "MOVE, GUNDHAM! YOU HAVE TO GET AWAY FROM THERE NOW!"

Gundham called, "You're wrong! June Nevins' breathing has stopped, and I for one will make sure that Lockjaw will send her to an early grave! I guarantee it that the fiery flames of hell will have done its unholy job!"

Nekomaru yelled, "IDIOT! She said it got away, on purpose! She did it to make you drop your guard! Can't you see that she was trying to stall your next teleportation?"

Gundham gasps, as he said, "Impossible. Did… Did they trick us?"

Nekomaru yelled, "I don't know how they did it, but those bitches found a way to track your movements down!" He was right. June's bullet wounds on her chest were smoking, producing a small white rabbit, the size of a golf ball, smoking carbon from its body.

Pets gasped, "June moved into my line of fire, on purpose! And Beth used one of her white rabbits to bury itself inside one of the wounds. She used the gun smoke to give me a trail to the enemy."

Beth nodded, as she whispered, "I've done all I can… Pets is on her own… Only, how am I gonna save Sis, if Pets is quivering like a coward, with that Pinocchio tongue inside her mouth? I bet she can send this guppy to the fish market, gutted and scaled!"

Pets found June, and Galaxy Train struck onto her chest wounds.

POW!
"GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Gundham was assaulted, as Nekomaru gasped.

Pets & Beth ran off, as Pets said, "We did it! Now all that's left is to find that huge shark's next location! Hate to ruin your plans, but June Nevins hasn't bitten the big one, just yet!"

They arrived at the fish tank, with June's body in the water. Beth growled, "There she is. Pets got it out of the sewer!" She prepared, "In the next few minutes, we'll be able to save her!"

XXXXX

Back at the table, Mossan used Prog Tech to perform the replay, except…

"Well, this is as far as it goes, Kana." She said, "Prog Tech played the replay from inside Pets' glass. However, that's all it can do, and Prog Tech cannot go beyond the replay, at this point."

"What are you trying to say?" Kana asked.

Mossan replied, "I'm saying that this bastard's got a clever skill, by teleporting. It found a way to sever the replay. I'm stuck on this one. I can't replay enough to see the user."

Gundham moaned, "Damn it! Tomomi Hetada, you will pay for your strategy!"

Nekomaru roared, "It's not Pets! It's those Nevins bitches! June Nevins played you like a fiddle, and Beth Nevins helped! Those sisters from hell! We're in this mess, because you got mauled by Galaxy Train!"

Gundham cried, "I can't! I can't get this residue off of me! Must be by those Stand Bullets; even the water can't get it off! I need a place to hide!"

It teleported away, heading to the kitchen. Pets growled, "Great. It teleported again? Looks like we're back to Stage One." She thought, "Okay, think! It can't get far with it's teleporting, and it can only move two to three meters, hopping from one area of fluid to another."

Galaxy Train attacked, destroying the kitchen, as Pets roared, "Shit! And it keeps getting away from me, with its hyper speed!"

Gundham hollered, getting shot again, "AAAAAGH! She keeps getting me, every time I get away!"

Pets smiled, "He's slowing down! Must be his injuries! Luckily, I was able to nick him, and bleed him out!"

She attacked the oven, knocking over a pot of hot water. Lockjaw and June spilt over, as Pets cried, "YES! I got him where I want him!"

Gundham shot out blood and cried out, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" Nekomaru yelled, "GUNDHAM, NO!"

Beth said, "Pets got him. Now, one more shot, and it's Bye-Bye Bottomfeeder!"

Pets roared, "GO TO HELL, YOU DEFORMED TUNA!"

She halted the attack, as she sensed something, "What the hell? What's that smell?"

Beth cried, "IT'S A GAS LEAK!"

Gundham groaned, "This is all going to plan, Tomomi Hetada… Thanks to your direct-hit punching, you have dug your own grave! The gas from the stovetop ovens, it spilled down a lot of water in the kitchen, and while the gas is turned on, I wonder how you can escape a gaseous death trap! I wonder how you can escape this one! Use your Stand to strike, and ignite the gas! Your Stand emits heat and flames, almost like a burning man! It won't kill anyone, but doing so will nullify your radar, clouding it with carbon dioxide! The end result, the room will be set ablaze! MWAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!"

Lockjaw's eyes shone, as Pets was shocked. Lockjaw dove up and bit June, heading to its escape route.

"DO IT! Why hesitate? Secure our victory, or face your fears!" Gundham called out.

POW!
"MUDA!" Beth landed a swift jab to Lockjaw, and flew him off. Gundham coughed out blood, as Beth cried, "That's your game, huh? There's only one way to fillet a homicidal goldfish!"

Pets cried, "HUH? Beth, why are you?"

Beth called, stomping on the Lockjaw, "Let me do the talking!" She cried out, "KANA, EVERYONE! WE FOUND THE ENEMY! IT'S IN THE KITCHEN! It has the ability to transport from liquid to liquid!"

June coughed up blood, as Beth sensed her pulse, "Good, she's breathing again. But damn, that was tough."

Pets nodded, "Good. She's alive. Kana-bun has to know about the Stand."

She called out, "Kana-bun! We found the Stand! Beth's got it taken care of!" She gasped, "Wait a minute… I told the truth, just now…"

Nekomaru said, "It's done. I released The Mouth Smasher from controlling Hetada's mouth. Brilliant strategy, Gundham, how you planned it. You sustained several injuries, but I'm sure the boss will be pleased."

Nanao called, "Beth Nevins! What's going on?"

The rest arrived at the kitchen, as Kana called, "Pets! Beth! What happened here?"

Nekomaru said, "But The Mouth Smasher's ability is only temporary!"

Nanao cried, "Is that the enemy?"

She prepared to fire, as she called, "Tomomi Hetada was right! It was a fish, as big as a whale!"

Beth shouted, "NO, WAIT! DON'T FIRE!"

Nekomaru boasted, "This is how you secure a victory, and complete a mission! When one is bested, nearly victorious in battle, there's always the leftovers to clean up! You left the gas on, just as how you left it. Perfect for the android to fire!"

Pets cried, "FIRE AWAY!" then gasped.

Nanao yelled, "UNDERSTOOD! OCTO-EROS!"

Beth screamed, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

KABOOM!
Nanao fired, and the gas ignited into a huge ball of flames. The rest of the team was pushed back from the impact.

Emily yelled, "What the hell just happened?"

The entire kitchen was set ablaze, as the others were knocked out. Beth groaned, "Y-You had to fire, you stupid robot…"

Pets growled, "Shit, my radar's acting up again… How am I gonna save June, if I can't tell the truth?"

June whispered, "P-Pets… You have to look for it…"

Pets asked, "Huh? June?"

June said, "Look… for the Stand User… forget the Stand, and go after the user!"

Lockjaw grabbed her, as Pets screamed, "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!"

June was gone, as Pets was upset. A small brooch was left behind, as Pets grabbed it. She whispered, "This… This is all that is left of her. She said… Find the Stand User… I see…"

She turned to Beth, who was unconscious, and gasped, "BETH!" She cried, "Oh, god! Is she hurt? Beth! Beth!" She wailed, "GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" She sobbed, "BETH! WAKE UP!"

Nanao cried, "Tomomi Hetada! You should have warned us about firing, if this place has gas that can ignite a building!"

Lockjaw emerged, from down in the puddle, as Pets cried, "WATCH OUT! THERE IT IS! IT'S ABOVE YOU!"

The Mouth Smasher returned, as Pets fibbed again, forcefully, "AGH! BELOW YOU, DAMN IT!"

Lockjaw slashed and attacked Kana, Mossan, Emily, & Nanao, as Pets was helpless. She thought, "I'm screwed! My lies will hurt everyone! I have to stop this, myself! But how?"

As Pets was frightened, Beth's body was already lifeless. Suddenly, she heard a voice, "Beth…"

Beth moaned, "Huh?"

She saw a vision of black, as she saw a woman in long black hair. She whispered, "M-Mom?"

The woman said, "I know what you want… that Pets doesn't have… Go after the Stand User, and not the Stand. Never mind the others…"

Beth moaned, "But how? I… Pets has doomed us all, and my sister…"

The woman said, "You have done so much for me… little one…" She emerged, showing her long black hair, wearing a gray uniform. It was Ayame Kajou. "Now, it's my turn."

She held her hands out, as Bra Bomber hovered over to Beth, "My spirit… is yours…"

"Huh? Kajou?" She gasped, "What the-? And that's…"

Bra Bomber flew through Beth, like a ghost, and the spirits shone into her.

Ayame spoke, as Beth was fading, "Bethany Nevins… My gift to you, for showing me life, one more time… My Stand, Bra Bomber. It is yours now… Your own Spirit Caller."

Beth woke up, as the others were attacked. Pets was stammered, as Beth shouted, "ENOUGH!"

Pets cried, "WHAT? Beth, you're okay!"

Beth called, "SHUT UP!" She held up a knife and said, "We're going User Hunting! Never mind the fish!" She boomed in a reddish aura, as she cried, "GO, ASSIST ME!"

Bra Bomber appeared, as it shot onto Lockjaw. Gundham coughed out blood, and cried, "WHAT?" Nekomaru yelled, "BUT HOW? THE LITTLE SHIT! I FORGOT ABOUT HER!"

Pets cried, "HUH? Since when did YOU own a Stand?"

Beth shivered, "I… I don't know…" she thought, "Bra Bomber… Ayame Kajou's gift to me… to save my sister. Kajou, I won't let you down… Not again…"

Pets said, "My god… You can sense it, too? It's like my Galaxy Train, only mobile! Where did you get it?"

Beth whispered, "From an old friend." She called, "Everyone stay back, and away from the water! We'll explain later!" She growled, clutching her fists, "Sis…"

She and Pets dashed off, as Emily yelled, "BETH! PETS!"

Kana cried, "WHERE ARE YOU GUYS GOING?"

Pets & Beth dashed off, as Nekomaru cried, "Shit! This is bad!"

Gundham moaned, "My body… How… was I… shot?"

Nekomaru yelled, "Come on! We have to get out of here! I don't know what, but they figured you out! Lockjaw has already targeted their friends, but those two are after us!"

Gundham cried, "WHAT? They're letting Lockjaw attack them to go after us? It's done! June Nevins is in Lockjaw's grip, running away from those two worthless girls!"

Nekomaru yelled, grabbing him, "FUCK THAT! WE'RE LEAVING, NOW! I don't care if you get Lockjaw to maul the bitch! We have to get away from them, before they find us! COME ON!"

Gundham and Nekomaru ran off, as Pets said, "So… You were right all along, Beth! The Stand User is our target! And if I recall, that shark won't stop, until June's good as dead!"

Beth said, "I know so! June's right! We're going to save her, and gut that fucking fish! And when we find the guys that did this to you, they're dead! But don't forget, the user of that fish is injured, meaning it's breathing heavily right now!"

Pets said, "That'll give us the advantage! Galaxy Train will assist! Combined with our Stands, we'll track those bastards down, for hurting your sister!"

Beth nodded, "Right! Remember, he's a long-ranged Stand User, so it's over there, in that area!"

They raced off, as Gundham and Nekomaru hid from their sights. Gundham said, "So… I see it now! That Beth Nevins is a Stand User, too!"

Nekomaru cried, "But that's impossible! The intel said that Beth Nevins produces rabbits from out of nowhere! Why the hell did she get a Stand, all of a sudden?" he yelled, "Finish June Nevins off, so she won't play Doctor, anymore!"

Gundham cried, "I can't… I am losing my breath… but still, two Stand Users that can detect me, it may be a problem!" He moaned, "Plus, I'm injured. She may pick up unnatural breathing!"

Nekomaru helped him up and said, "Where's Lockjaw now?"

"To the sewers, heading to the canal. They won't find her. It's far from here."

"Good! Now, let's scram! If we avoid contact with those two, we won! But still, the little brat with a Stand? I'm not processing this ridiculous method, but it's impossible for a 10-year old to wield something like this!"

They headed down, as Nekomaru said, "We'll lose them in the crowd of people, in the plaza. We won this fight, but the war's not over."

Gundhan said, "You're right. This fledgling flyboy wouldn't find us, right?"

Pets cried, "I got you now, stronzo!"

Gundham said, "Is that Hetada?"

Nekomaru said, "No worries, Gundham. The Mouth Smasher's already latched onto her tongue. She's already on the hunt. But the little one, well, she's a long way to go, possibly tripped and skidded her knee."

Beth called, "Found you, assholes!"

They gasped, and Gundham cried, "What? Impossible!" He barked, "Hetada's under the control of The Mouth Smasher, but not Beth Nevins! She's the only one that trusts in her!"

Nekomaru said, "She may have figured us out, but we're long gone."

Beth & Pets were heading towards the two, from afar, as Gundham cried, "Damn it! I have to recall Lockjaw, and leave Nevins in!"

Nekomaru cried, "AND WHAT? Have these two go on sewer patrol?! You're not doing anything! Besides, the little runt is too gullible for her own good! She believes that Pets is doing the opposite! And that she believed her every word! The Mouth Smasher just made our day, and it tricked a stupid little kid!"

Gundham cried, "But… This Beth Nevins, she's inhuman!"

"Get a hold of yourself! Pets is under my control, and you have to control your breathing! Believe me when I say that these two have got nothing on you! This is her last-ditch effort to rattle you out!"

"I'll try… But that little one… She…"

Pets said, "There you are, ass-hat!"

They glared at them, as the guards were far away. Beth hissed, "So, these are the two Stand Users, Wolf Boy and Casper the Friendly Tard." She pointed, "Hey, you bastards! You going to a Halloween Party or something? It's September, just so you know!"

They gasped, as Gundham cried, "WHAT? They figured us out?"

Nekomaru cried, "Who are you calling wolf boy?" He stated, "Do not panic! She has no idea who we are. Pets is already in my control. Every word she says is a lie, as long as my Stand controls her! And that brat doesn't know that we have our Stands controlling Pets."

Beth called out, "You mean… This Stand?" Beth held up a knife, with Pets' severed tongue and The Mouth Smasher.

"WHAT? HOW THE HELL DID SHE-?" Nekomaru shrieked.

Pets' tongue was severed, and Beth smirked. Gundham cried, "I can't believe it! Hetada sliced off her own tongue, and that brat… She knew!"

Nekomaru was shocked, "That… That shouldn't be possible! That little shit… She figured me out, already? The brat is dumb and just a kid! How the hell did she know about me, already?"

Beth called, "Hey, buddy… Your next line?"

"My… my next line?"

Beth retorted, "How is this lunatic speaking, let alone that brat aided her! She's crazy! Who is this freak? Like this?"

Nekomaru cried, "H-How is this lunatic speaking, let alone that brat aided her! She… SHE'S CRAZY! WHO THE HELL IS THIS FREAK?" He gasped in shock.

Pets' mouth reproduced a new tongue from the brooch June left behind. Pets cried, "GALAXY TRAAAAAAAAAAIN! KILL HIM!"

Nekomaru cried, "She… She has another tongue?!"

Gundham yelled, "It's June Nevins' doing! She used her powers to recreate a new tongue for her! But what of the little one? What could she have done to figure us out?" He stated, "The Boss was right about her. This girl's bad news! But her sister, she's worse off, and we had no idea she was a Stand User, too!"

Nekomaru called, "Wait! It's not lost yet! Those two may have figured us out, but we're in a huge crowd of people! They'll never find us! But still, Wolf Boy and Casper." He cried, "It's possible that the brat has psychic powers! She knows who we are! We have to run away, before they get closer!"

Beth called, "Too many people here… And knowing those two, killing them will be tricky."

Pets said, "Right. Can Galaxy Train hitch a ride on your Stand?"

"Sure thing!" Beth said, "But all it needs is a name!" She thought, "Bra Bomber, welcome to your new home, in my camp."

The Plane appeared, as Beth called out, "Hop aboard, Galaxy Train! Welcome to the ride of your life, and the voyage of payback! With my Spirit Caller… Aero-Bunny!"

Beth Nevins's Spirit Caller, once belonged to Ayame Kajou, is called Aero-Bunny! The same powers as Kajou's Stand, only twice as powerful!

Pets called, "Guess what, boys? I found you two out, because you tried to run away. It turns out you were shocked by my tongue being sliced off. And now that you two are frightened by it, it agitated your breathing! Bet you never thought you'd see two Stands, combined to track you down! We waited for you, big guy! Your breathing is rapidly increasing! And for you, fugly, you're next! This is for June Nevins!" They spotted them, as Pets said, "HAH! I was right! The guy in that wolf-like hair is the enemy, likewise your creepy buddy in that swirly top! You two assholes will pay!"

Nekomaru cried, "This… THIS IS INSANE! She mutilated her own body, to find us? They're maniacs!"

Beth smiled, "Well, well… Big Werewolf wants to kill us? Or was it the ghostface over there? Soon, you'll be screaming for your life! It memory serves me, the big one's Stand is the one I am holding in my hands. Which means…"

Pets called, "Which means short, pale, and ugly is the Stand User for that shark!"

Nekomaru cried, "Recall Lockjaw now! What are you waiting for? They cornered us!"

Gudham cried, "I'm on it. It's swimming to the sewers, as we speak, heading to that well right beside us! Only problem is… there's no water in there! It cannot attack, unless there's a body of water in it!"

Pets roared, "YOU'RE THE ONE! ASSHOLE!" She attacked Gundham, "I'LL KILL YOU FOR HURTING MY FRIENDS, AND MAKING ME SUFFER! GALAXY TRAIN!"
Beth cried out, "AERO-BUNNY! OPEN FIRE!"

The Stands fire with flaming bullets at Gundham. He shrieked, but…
"GUNDHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!" Nekomaru shielded him, with his arms out.

He was shot severely by the bullets, and then fell to the ground, pouring pink blood out.

Gundham cried, holding Nekomaru, "NO, NEKOMARU! You fool, what are you doing?"

Nekomaru moaned, as he was dying, "This… is all… to suffice to you… With my blood… you can… win…"

Gundham cried, "What are you talking about? How can blood help me?"

"Because… the blood… is a fluid… and your Stand… will make it to them… Give them hell… and make… me… proud…"

He collapsed and died. Nekomaru Nidai has died. His Stand vanished from the severed tongue, as Beth said, "Ew… Well, so much for the big and hairy one. Tell The Boss that we're ending you and your allies… for hurting my sister!"

Gundham snarled, as he was infuriated, "You little bitch! Screw the Boss! I could care less about her now, or give orders from her! From now on, I'm going to kill, when I want to! Nekomaru Nidai died a hero, saving my life! Victory is within my grasp, and it starts with you, you little culo!"

Beth gasped, as she saw blood on her shoulder. It showed Lockjaw from within, as Gundham called, "I'm not gonna murder you, being as one of the boss's guards! You can join your freakish older sister in hell! Nekomaru Nidai, your sacrifice will not be in vain! I kill this piece of shit, then Hetada, and the rest of them will follow! This is for you, Nekomaru! I WILL EVISCERATE THEM FOR WHAT THEY DID! DESPAIR WILL BE THEIR PENANCE! LOCKJAW, FINISH THAT LITTLE FUCKER OFF, AND SLICE HER HEAD OFF!"

Beth huffed, as Lockjaw lunged at her, "Are you done?"

GNASH!
Beth was gnashed in the neck, except…
"What?" Gundham cried, "But how?"

A rabbit emerged and chomped onto Lockjaw, with its razor-sharp teeth. Beth stands tall, as she smiled, "You should've killed me, instead of preaching to your dead friend. Next time, actions before words."

Gundham cried, "NO! That little bitch devoured my Stand?"

The rabbit hopped off her shoulder, as she smiled, "Besides, there's two of us…"

POW!
Galaxy Train socked Gundham in the solar plexus, as she cried, "…and one of you!" Pets cried, "We're leaving this place, whether you like it or not! You want despair, you got it! I'll give you my despair, for everything in my past, handed to you!"

Beth called, "Nice knowing you, Pugsley."

Galaxy Train and Aero-Bunny attack, with Galaxy Train punching him, and Aero-Bunny shooting him, in a pincers move.

"VOLA VOLA VOLA VOLA VOLA VOLA VOLA VOLA VOLA VOLA VOLA VOLA VOLA VOLA VOLA!"
"MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA!"

Pets cried, "VOLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Landing a wicked uppercut to Gundham's skull.
"MUDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Aero-Bunny shot off Lockjaw, landing onto Gundham.

Pets hissed, "Volare Via." And Beth called, "Useless." They turned away, as Gundham was sent flying.

"You're… You're nothing but traitors! I only wish that death and despair would… be at the hands… of the Boss! Who are they? Hetada's the traitor, but this brat? What the hell keeps them going?"

Gundham fell down dead, lying next to Nekomaru. Both of the Elite Guards were dead and defeated, by Beth and Pets.

Galaxy Train posed, as Beth spread her right arm out, like a runway for Aero-Bunny. Pets kneeled down in pain, as Beth smirked, "Thank you… Ayame Kajou. Rest in peace. Thank you for this gift. But it's Okuma that needs you, more than me, for us to complete our mission."

She saw June, lying on the ground, and sobbed, "Sis…" She sensed the radar and smiled, "What a relief… She's finally breathing again!" She ran to her, and was crying, "Sis! SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS!" She went to June's body and bawled, "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! SIS! WAKE UP! SISSSSSSSSSSS!"

Pets watched on, as she was worried, "Beth… She has a Stand, just to save her sister. She's a true hero. I don't know what Mossan saw through in her, but June's decision making made us go through this ordeal. She might actually be our leader, if things pull out. June… Beth… These two are saints. There may be hope yet."

June woke up, as she groaned, "Hey, Beth…"

Beth hugged her, as she was crying. June smiled, "I'm… proud of you… and Pets… Thank you."

Pets called, "Come on, June. Everyone's waiting. We'll get you healed up, and leave."

June, Beth, & Pets leave together, as they returned to Kana and the others, giving them the good news.


Moments later, they chartered a boat, leaving Venice.

Kana said, "Pets, you and Beth Nevins have my deepest respects, for saving us. But the journey is far from over, ladies. It's safe to say that Venezia is freed of any hitmen from the famiglia. I believe we're in the clear. We're off to the Isle Sardinia, and more of The Boss's Past." She explained, "We're taking it to the skies, for our next destination. If we're to succeed, it's imperative to learn of the Boss's past. We succeed, or die trying."

Inside the turtle, June was sitting in the couch, all alone, as she felt her arm. Beth was lying by her lap, sleeping. June smiled, as she petted her head. She whispered, "Thank you, Sis…"

June knows, despite that she was a victim to this, her sister, Beth, was indeed a hero. And it was all thanks to Ayame Kajou's spirit that helped Beth & Pets leave Venice.

And so, our heroes leave Venice, heading to an airport, where they head off to their next destination: The Isle of Sardinia.


To be continued…
