Jogging down the streets of Morioh, I couldn't help thinking what a pretty place it was. Looking at the severed hand in my pocket, I could tell why I was getting some strange looks. But I was also in a lot of pain. You see, I was chopping vegetables at home when… that happened. I had been going to the hospital. And that's why I wasn't walking to admire the green skies you couldn't see anywhere else, and the landscapes, and the bustling downtown I was just entering. Because the bleeding hadn't stopped completely.

I saw the hospital a couple blocks down the street. Of course, I bumped into some kid, and that's where the trouble began. He looked at my pocket and then my face and for some reason his jaw dropped.

"Who are you?" I asked. For some reason this small child posed, pointed at me, and the tall girl he was with stood there menacingly.

"3 FREEZE!"

Koichi did not want Kira to show up again. Hadn't he died already? Yukako's Love Deluxe had already gagged him, and he was pinned to the ground. It had been, what, a week? Now he shows up in a new disguise.

He tried to choke out words through the gag, but it didn't get through. The man wasn't using his stand, though. Koichi let down his ability, but not his guard.

A peculiar thing happened. As the man started to get up, he seemed to be more aware of his surroundings. He took out a stand. Love Deluxe started to engulf him, but he pointed at Yukako. She started to fall headfirst, and the man broke through Love Deluxe, now revealing a stand that was not Kira's. He shot his knee into Yukako's face. Before Koichi could react, another kick sent him into the brick wall.

"Great. More teenagers with strange powers." I turned around to face the next guy and the pink dude floating behind him. "KOICHI!" He lunged at me, throwing a punch. I blocked, but the punch broke right through my arms and chest. Then, however, everything started coming back together.

"Wait, Josuke. I thought that guy was Kira, then Yukako and I attacked first."

"This guy?"

"He was carrying a hand in his pocket."

"There isn't one there now." This Josuke ceased repeatedly punching me in the face for a second, and I saw that my hand was back on.

"How the fuck did you do that?" Josuke looked at me and grinned a little.

"You don't even notice, do you. That thing behind you."

"What the fuck do you mean?" As I looked behind me, I saw a strange figure. It's skin was the color of ivory, and it had a screen looking thing in the middle. It's head was prismatic and slightly clear. The screen displayed a bar, filled up about 6% with 3 different colors.

I willed it to punch Josuke. "That's for earlier." I made his shoulders heavy, then slammed the pink dude into the ground.

"So then you want to keep going. Now that the playing field is fair."

We punched it out for another minute.

"That was fun. I actually did some boxing training in London for about a month during my gap year."

"Gap year?"

"Oh, I'm a year out of high school. I took a year to travel to Europe because I want to be an accountant. I wanted to intern banking in Luxembourg for 6 months, but the first 4 months I could do whatever I wanted. It was pretty fun."

"You look a bit younger than a university student. Maybe I'll go to Italy, if I fail my exams and need a vacation. We call those things stands, by the way."

"What do you mean?"

"Your floaty dude. It's called a stand." Josuke just smiled.

"Cool. How many other people with these 'stands' are there?"

"I do not keep count."

"Hey, what's your name?" Josuke asked. "I want to tell Mr. Kujo… oh right. He just left."

"I'm Kuso Tsuyoi."

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, oh, I'm so sorry. Kuso Tsuyoi?"

"God damn it. An entire incident with my grandfather and WW2 ended up with our family name changed to Kuso. And then my parents got into manga, and they went, 'You know what would be funny? If our kid was Kuso Tsuyoi.'" (use google translate)

"Heh. Well, see you."

I went back home. I had heard that Kishibe Rohan lived in town, but I actually saw him today too. Anyway, it was 6, so I decided to hop into the Owson for a sandwich. I picked out the usual, a bacon egg and cheese on a bagel. Breakfast was dinner after having to study a new concept for a few hours, and the vegetables were covered in blood, anyway, after earlier.

"The ones at St. Gentlemen's are better," said a man in a bowler hat.

"Oh?" I hadn't seen this guy before. "Well, I live closer to here than there."

"Just making small talk." He grabbed a box of gum and walked through the wall.

Isn't that stealing?

"Hey Mr. Jotaro, we found another stand user. He seems pretty powerful. Koichi was with Yukako and thought the guy was Kira, and attacked, they lost. I happened to be walking down the street, and he closely matched me in power. I'm not sure what his ability is, but he used an ability similar to Koichi's a few times, and there's a strange screen on his stand's chest. No, no clue what the screen does, but it changed after I started fighting him. Being able to copy stand powers? Well, it was way weaker when he used Koichi's 3 Freeze. You want to see this? Ok. Ok, goodbye."

Hello. I haven't written in a while (if i had a nickel for every time I said that). I want you all to know that I'm trying to work on anything you might have liked on my page. See you next chapter!
