Episode 16: Battle! Ryuko vs Chariot Requiem

Ryuko stared at Chariot Requiem. Sanageyama and Giorno looked directly at her

"Ryuko. You're up" Giorno says

"She's not weating Senketsu" Satsuki says

"How do you know Satsuki?" Bruno asks. Ryuko refused to listen to everyone behind her

"Ryuko...say something" Giorno says. Ryuko looked at him angrily

"She's naked" Sanageyama says

"No. Something isn't right here. Why would she go into battle without Senketsu" Giorno says

"Because...I'm never wearing him ever again" Ryuko says

"What?" Giorno asks

"She's not serious...is she?" Kinagase asks

"When has Ryuko ever been known to be a joker. She's serious. And that's not good" Mikisugi says. Ryuko rushes in and tries to kill Chariot Requiem personally.

"She's fighting blindly" Bruno says. Ryuko began to feel some pain at her side.

"I'LL KILL YOU!" Ryuko shouts. Chariot Requiem punched the girl in the face and struck her into the ground

"What the hell. I don't remember this thing having that much strength" Sanageyama says

"Inumuta did say that Chariot Requiem may have increased his strength and speed" Gamagori says

"But how do we permanently kill this thing?" Jakuzure asks

"Maybe if I shoot it down" Mista says. He shoots at the stand but the bullets were deflected by Sex Pistols

"Why didn't those bullets hit. They were headed straight for him" Narancia says

"Dammit. He can control our stands" Mista says

"But we don't have stands" Jakuzure says. She rushes in but was grabbed by Chariot Requiem then thrown into the nearest building

"NONON!" Mista shouts. Chariot Requiem walked towards the group but Ryuko got up and stabbed him in the chest

"WE'RE NOT DONE!" Ryuko shouts. Chariot Requiem looked back and used the arrow as a sword. He almost stabbed the girl with it but she used her free hand to make sure it didn't penetrate her. Inumuta and Abbacchio ran towards the group

"We're here" Abbacchio says

"Lady Satsuki. Bucciarati. I may have a plan." Inumuta says

"What is it?" Satsuki asks

"So. We need to grab the arrow first" Inumuta says

"The arrow?" Satsuki asks

"May I ask why you need the arrow so much?" Bruno asks

"Not me. We do. I think the best way to defeat Ragyo is to use the arrow for further use. So if we can seize the arrow and kill this stand. We can kill two birds with one stone" Inumuta says

"So...how do we kill this motherfucker then?" Bruno asks

"It's a long explanation" Inumuta says

"SAY IT!" Satsuki shouts

"Okay okay. So, everyone has a shadow" Inumuta says. Meanwhile, Ryuko and Chariot Requiem continued their struggle.

"DAMN YOU!" Ryuko shouts. She pushed back the arrow then attempted to cut off Chariot Requiem's head. The stand dodged the attack then proceeded to chop Ryuko in the neck

"What the hell did this thing do to get so much stronger" Sanageyama says. Chariot Requiem knee'd Ryuko into stomach then punched her into the nearest building. The girl got up and attempted to stab the stand again but the attack was dodged

"Ryuko seems as if she is only using brute force to try to kill this guy" Giorno says

"We gotta do something" Bruno says

"HELP ME AND YOU DIE!" Ryuko shouts. She got kicked in the back and drops of blood came out of her mouth

"Never mind her. I'm helping" Giorno says. His stand grabbed his legs to make he didn't move a muscle

"I'll help" Gamagori says. He runs up and punches Chariot Requiem in the face. The man felt a pain in his face

"Gamagori. Do not attack" Bruno says

"YOU'RE TELLING ME NOW!" Gamagori shouts

"Listen to me Gamagori. Chariot Requiem is the shadow of your soul" Satsuki says

"What?" Gamagori asks

"A shadow. So how are we supposed to counter that?" Giorno asks

"The light" Satsuki says. Giorno noticed the light behind him

"THERE!" Giorno shouts. He was able to use his stand for a split second and punched the light behind him. Chariot Requiem's arm splattered everywhere and he let go of the arrow. Gamagori grabs it then throws it to Bruno. The Passione leader caught the arrow before it was able to pierce him

"Yes" Bruno says

"EVERYONE! DESTROY THE LIGHT BEHIND YOU!" Satsuki shouts. Everyone turned around and crushed the light orbs behind them. This caused Chariot Requiem's body parts to splatter.

"We did it. Chariot Requiem is finally defeated" Bruno says

"But Ryuko…" Giorno says. Ryuko got up slowly

"Talk to her Giorno" Jakuzure says as she gets up from her earlier hit

"Okay" Giorno says. He walks towards her. "Ryuko"

"What is it Giorno?" Ryuko asks

"You took quite the hit, are you…" Giorno says

"SHUT UP!" Ryuko shouts

"I was only…" Giorno says.

"I DON'T WANT YOUR SYMPATHY!" Ryuko shouts

"What has gotten into her?" Bruno asks

"What happened at Honnoji was somewhat hard for her to wrap around" Satsuki says. Mako, Senketsu, and Polnareff arrived on the scene

"Ryuko" Senketsu says. Ryuko looked at Senketsu. She screamed and almost stabbed Giorno but Golden Experience grabbed onto it and preventes the fatal blow. Everyone was in awe at what she was doing

"Ryuko...what are you doing?" Mako asks

"WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU!? DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU ALMOST KILLED!?" Bruno asks

"Let...it go" Satsuki says

"But why?" Bruno asks

"What...why?" Giorno asks

"Why did you bring him here?" Ryuko asks

"Who?" Giorno asks

"WHY DID YOU BRING HIM HERE!? I TOLD YOU, I'M NEVER PUTTING HIM ON EVER AGAIN!" Ryuko shouts

"What?" Senketsu asks

"You heard me" Ryuko says

"This is very unlike you. Why so hostile,m" Giorno asks

"Unlike me? UNLIKE ME!? THIS...IS WHO I AM!" Ryuko shouts. She swings her sword and the slashes cut the buildings in the mile distance

"No...this is not who you are" Giorno says

"Giorno Giovanna. You don't know me if you think I'm someone different. Accept that this is me, and that means I have to go" Ryuko says

"What?" Giorno asks

"Ryuko. NO!" Mako shouts. Ryuko walked away from the group. Giorno went down to his knees in shock

"Ryuko…" Giorno says. Mako began to cry as her best friend walked away from the entire group

Two Hours Later

Satsuki was in bed getting some rest. Bruno, and the Elite Four surrounded the girl. Giorno hugged Mako tightly

"You okay Mako?" Giorno asks

"No" Mako says. Polnareff was with Senketsu looking at the two

"Do you blame her. Her best friend walked away from her after defeating that stand" Polnareff says

"We're all upset right now. It's not like Ryuko wasn't close to us. Besides, Gamagori asked me to do this" Giorno says

"He did. Seems unlike him" Polnareff says. Giorno looked around

"Fuck it. I'm gonna find Ryuko" Giorno says. He let go of Mako and ran off

"WAIT! I'M COMING WITH YOU!" Mako shouts

Somewhere in the streets

Ryuko walked alone and angry in the streets. She only had a hood and her Scissor Blade

"Dammit" Ryuko says

"You ran away from your friends. Didn't you?" A voice asks. The voice sounded like Polnareff's

"Who...who the hell said that?" Ryuko asks. Behind her, something began to form. It was Chariot Requiem

"It was me" Chariot Requiem says. Ryuko looked behind her

"HOW THE HELL ARE YOU STILL ALIVE!? YOU WERE DESTROYED!" Ryuko shouts

"I was merely a bunch of splattered molecules. I wasn't actually dead" Chariot Requiem sats

"HOW THE HELL CAN YOU EVEN TALK!? YOU WERE SILENT THE LAST TWO BATTLES!?" Ryuko shouts

"I picked up speech from my former master and from you guys. It's neat what I could learn...like this" Chariot Requiem says. He creates a sword that looks similar to a fencing sword. Ryuko charged at the stand but her attack was blocked by the sword. "My sword is as strong as your Scissor Blade, so it won't be penetrated so easily" The stand says.

"FIGHT ME!" Ryuko shouts. The two engage in an intense swordfight. Ryuko jumped over the stand and tried to attack the back but Chariot Requiem blocked it without turning. "What the fu…"

"I don't have regular limbs. So I can block even the back spots" Chariot Requiem says

"Dammit. How the hell did you even get splattered anyway?" Ryuko asks

"Like I'm even telling you that. I would be killed if you found out" Chariot Requiem says. Ryuko tries to attack the stand but she was blocked on every attempt

"DAMMIT! CAN'T GET BY!" Ryuko shouts. Chariot stabs the girl in the stomach

"You didn't even try. How pitiful. You really are a sad girl" Chariot Requiem says.

"SHUT UP!" Ryuko shouts. She pushes the stand away then cuts him in the chest. The stand went down to one knee. Ryuko then began to feel pain as well but it went away quickly. The girl then realized how to defeat the stand

"Wait" Chariot Requiem says. Ryuko gave the stand a chance to speak

"All talk and one wound caused you to fall" Ryuko says

"Don't kill me. I just want the arrow back" Chariot Requiem says

"Even if I had it. I wouldn't give it to you. Besides, you attacked too many. Goodbye" Ryuko says. She attacks the light behind her

"NOOOO!" Chariot Requiem shouts. He exploded everywhere, and this time. The stand was gone, for good

"Now. To get Ragyo Kiryuin" Ryuko says. She rushes towards Honnoji Academy, where she assumed the villain was

Somewhere near the docks

Giorno and Mako looked for Ryuko among the docks

"She's not here" Giorno says

"What if she already drifted towards the sea" Mako says

"Not a chance. There's no wind and it's impossible to move out of our sight" Giorno says

"I guess you're right" Mako says

"Let's keep looking" Giorno says. He and Mako went somewhere else in the city

Back at the base

Bruno stayed behind for Satsuki as the others went to attend to Iori

"Bucciarati" Satsuki says softly.

"How are you feeling?" Bruno asks

"Better than before. I should be back up and running in an hour" Satsuki says

"That's good" Bruno says. Satsuki grabbed his hand

"Stay" Satsuki says

"I wasn't planning to leave anyway" Bruno says. Satsuki smiled

"Thank you" Satsuki says

"It's no problem" Bruno says. Jakuzure, and Mista watched the two

"Bucciarati would of left if it wasn't her" Mista says

"And Satsuki would even be okay with us leaving" Jakuzure says

"WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING HERE!?" Bruno and Satsuki shout in unison

"Let's run" Mista says. He and Jakuzure run away

"Well. You seem ready to be up and about" Bruno says

"Shut up" Satsuki says. Bruno noticed it was quieter than usual

"Hey...have you seen Mako" Bruno says

"Giorno said 'Fuck it' and went to go look for Matoi. Mankanshoku went with him" Satsuki says

"Why the hell did he say 'Fuck it'" Bruno says

"No idea, but it may be a dangerous idea for him and Mankanshoku to be trying to look for Matoi" Satsuki says

"I agree. Shall we go?" Bruno asks

"No. Get Gamagori to go since he's the one that likes her" Satsuki says

"True true. Okay" Bruno says

A couple minutes later

Gamagori and Abbacchio left the base

"Where do we look?" Abbacchio asks

"Maybe towards Honnoji. Even if it is a death trap" Gamagori says

"Why is it a death trap?" Abbacchio asks

"Ragyo Kiryuin and her crew are hiding out there" Gamagori says

"I see...dammit, my stand isn't one to be in combat with either" Abbacchio says

"Then avoid combat for now. We just need to find Giorno and Mankanshoku" Gamagori says

"Mostly Mako" Abbacchio says

"Yeah" Gamagori says. The two walk towards the school. "One question"

"What is it?" Abbacchio asks

"Where is your boss?" Gamagori asks

"I have no idea. He has never shown his face, yet Ryuko claimed to have seen him. And he has a dangerous ability" Abbacchio says

"Dangerous ability?" Gamagori asks

"He might have the ability to erase time itself" Abbacchio says

"And how the hell does that work?" Gamagori asks

"Like this" A voice says. The next second, Abbacchio had a hole in his chest in Gamagori's eyes.

"ABBACCHIO!" Gamagori shouts. The man saw Diavolo behind the corpse of Leone Abbacchio

"A filthy member of Satsuki's henchmen. The daughter of Ragyo really did choose wisely" Diavolo says

"What is the meaning of this?" Gamagori asks

"I just took down a traitor. That's all. Like how Uzu Sanageyama murdered the traitor known as Pannacotta Fugo" Diavolo says

"But he was a real traitor. Abbacchio wasn't" Gamagori says. He tried to punch Diavolo but the next second he knew, he had bruises on his chin, knee, and stomach. He took a knee as he felt serious pain

"Nice try. But my stand is too strong even for the strongest ones here. Even Nui Harime didn't stand much of a chance" Diavolo says

"But...that's…" Gamagori says. Diavolo disappeared again and struck the brute in multiple places

"I would kill you right now. But I think I'll have other people do that for me. Tell Bruno Bucciarati that Leone Abbacchio is an example of what happens to traitors" Diavolo says. He disappears and never reappears

"Damn...Damnit" Gamagori says while in pain. Giorno and Mako were around the corner

"Something's wrong" Giorno says

"Like what?" Mako asks. The two went towards Gamagori

"Gamagori" Giorno says. He then sees Abbacchio's corpse. He runs over to that

"Are you okay?" Mako asks

"I'm...fine…" Gamagori says

"No you're not. You have bruises everywhere. Who did this to you?" Mako asks

"Whoever did this killed Abbacchio" Giorno says

"It was…" Gamagori says

"It was who? TELL US!" Mako shouts

"Passione's Boss" Gamagori says. Giorno turned around

"Are you sure?" Giorno asks

"He believes Bucciarati's group are traitors due to allying himself with Lady Satsuki" Gamagori says. Giorno looked at him and Mako. Lights came down on the girl

"If this so called boss is trying to take everyone down. Then that means Ryuko is in danger of getting hurt by not one but two bosses of certain organizations. Ragyo Kiryuin and Passione's Boss" Mako says dressing up as Ragyo and Diavolo at the end

"How the hell did you get the boss' look?" Giorno asks

"A character like myself doesn't know. Even the writer doesn't know how" Mako says

"I think he'd see himself out" Giorno says

"Anyways. We got to warn everyone. Especially since he told me that he would get others to kill me and the rest of you" Gamagori says

"WHAT!?" Mako shouts

"We need to run. NOW!" Giorno shouts.

Ten Minutes Later

Giorno, Gamagori, and Mako gathered up Mako's family, Mista, Narancia, Inumuta, Jakuzure, Sanageyama, Mikisugi, and Kinagase

"We are just waiting on the other two" Giorno says. Bruno comes in carring Satsuki on his back

"Have you two made out yet?" Mako asks

"NO!" Bruno and Satsuki shout in unison

"Never mind that. I have to tell you all some important news" Giorno says

"What is it?" Bruno asks

"Abbacchio...is dead" Giorno says

"Abbacchio…" Narancia says

"Who the hell would even do that? That Nui girl?" Kinagase asks

"No...it was the boss" Giorno says

"The boss? Have you gone mad?" Bruno asks

"No. I saw him do it. My bruises are proof. I couldn't even hit him" Gamagori says showing the group his bruises

"Those look pretty bad honestly" Mista says

"There is no way Giorno's stand could of done this. Nor would if be from one of Ragyo's henchmen. Making the claim that this was the Passione Boss' doing, very believable" Inumuta says

"Why...why the hell we he even do this?" Giorno asks

"Because he believes you are all traitors" Satsuki says. Everyone looked at her

"What do you mean?" Mista asks

"Since I am Ragyo Kiryuin's daughter. It would reasonable that the boss would think you are all traitors" Satsuki says

"A misunderstanding. SO ABBACCHIO DIED BECAUSE OF A MISUNDERSTANDING!" Narancia shouts

"Calm down Narancia" Mista says

"DON'T TELL ME TO CALM DOWN! ONE OF OUR OWN IS DEAD THANKS TO OUR SO CALLED BOSS!" Narancia shouts. Bruno slapped him on the cheek

"Yelling is going to get us nowhere. I am just as mournful about Abbacchio as anyone in this room. But we don't have time to focus on that right now" Bruno says

"Then...what do we focus on?" Mikisugi asks

"We have to take down the boss before he has the chance to try to take us down" Bruno says

"You mean...fight the very man that we have been led by this entire time…" Giorno says

"Exactly. It will be difficult as we don't have a counter for his stand's ability. But it won't hurt to try" Bruno says

"Right...and I'll help if I can" Satsuki says

"Good...because we need Satsuki Kiryuin back on the battlefield" Bruno says. The two smiled at each other

Passione Home

Diavolo arrived at the front door of Passione Home. He entered and saw Risotto Nero, Ghiaccio, and Illuso were relaxing in the front

"What do you want?" Risotto Nero asks

"I want to make a proposal" Diavolo says

"A proposal?" Illuso asks

"Listen. Once Bucciarati comes back, he'll…" Ghiaccio says

"Bucciarati will not be coming back. He has betrayed Passione and has allied himself with Satsuki Kiryuin" Diavolo says

"And what is your proof?" Risotto Nero asks

"None in my possession. But I have killed Leone Abbacchio while he was walking with Ira Gamagori" Diavolo says

"Walking with Gamagori?" Illuso asks

"THE ELITE FOUR MEMBER!?" Ghiaccio asks

"Yes. Him. I didn't kill him, but I was hoping you could do that for me" Diavolo says

"You never gave us your name...or any information on who you are" Risotto Nero says

"I'm sorry. My name is…" Diavolo says
