"Do you know what kind of power he has?" I caught Josuke while I was on the way home from college a few days later. "Mr. Kujo. What kind of ability does he have?"
"Why do you ask?" Understandable. The ability of Kujo Jotaro had to be something spectacular to be able to be understood as the strongest guy that someone like Josuke knew.
"Well… I got attacked yesterday. By some guy. He tried to interrogate the real ability of Jotaro off of me."
"Tell me about it."
"Yesterday I was eating…"
lunch at St. Gentleman's. It was pretty good, as usual. I saw the guy at the table next to me playing the knife game. You know, the one where you take a knife and stab between your fingers? He accidentally cut his finger off. It did not look fun. I walked over, because I had just taken the last bite of my sandwich, and healed him. He said, "Wow, how'd you do that?" and grabbed my hand.
I replied with, "Oh, nothing." I pulled out my screen behind him, to turn all my abilities back to normal, when I noticed I had copied another stand. I put my screen away quickly, and turned around and moved back to my seat, where my soda was, and the guy was following me. I tried to take out my screen again in front of me, and picked up my soda to take a sip. What I didn't expect was to feel my tongue burning. I spat it out. My cup, which was paper, promptly melted, pouting out oozing green goo.
"Now, tell me the ability of Kujo Jotaro," the man now said. "Otherwise, I'm using this on you." He had a glowing green bottle of Mountain Dew, likely filled with the same stuff. I read my screen, and he seemed to still be looming over me. My Chemical Romance, the stand read. It was able to turn any carbonated drink into a deadly poison. A small amount of it dissolves in water, making it clear, but still as deadly as before. It is acidic, and can destroy organic material. The man's stand was fully clear now. It was neon green, and it had what appeared to be a hose and a tank filled with the stuff.
"My stand is called My Chemical Romance. It's ability is to turn any carbonated drink into a deadly poison. A small amount of it dissolves in water, making it clear, but still as deadly as before. It is acidic, and can destroy organic material."
He fired at me, and I ducked under one of the tables, and then threw my screen at him. "That's your stand? How pathetic." It landed behind him, which was exactly what I wanted. Right before his stand fired on me, my full stand came out and tackled him towards me, through his own stand, where I threw him up, and threw a right hook that sent him flying into the wall.
"So, I left him there." Josuke listened through the whole thing, and then I was about where my house was.
"Hey, how do you have this nice house?"
"It's my parents' house. They are on a 3 week trip to look at different islands for an anime they'll be helping produce. They're senior character designers at Toei Animation."
"They make cartoons, huh? Okuyasu says that his favorite is Dragon Ball, but I don't really like that kind of television."
"Ooh, you should watch Pink Dark Boy. It's really good, and it came out this year. The mangaka actually lives in this town! I saw him the other day."
"Is that Rohan's manga? Damn it."
Next chapter is a fairly important one. Stick around!
