Pumped Up Kicks, Part 2
Is the Order a Rabbit? belongs to Manga Time Kirara, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure belongs to Hirohiko Araki. If I did then nothing is more bizarre than Chiya's breast size.
Also thanks Speedwagon for reminding me something your last review that I forgot in the last chapter, so thanks. Also the view count isn't working on mine as the time I write this, it's stuck...at zero views with one review. Blame it on FF. Also thanks to Kamencolin's review! I feel excited but I REFUSE!
*joke*
You're suggestion will be put into the story, good old Speedwagon, thanks for the reminder. Also a reader named Earthbound Servant messaged me, having a suggestion for a [Stand]. I'm not asking for [Stand] suggestions, I got my own ideas and it'll ruin the flow of the story since I'll want to put ALL of your suggestions there and stretch it out for no reason then, but I'll do Earthbound Servant's idea eventually.
It is a pretty interesting idea for a [Stand] though.
One more thing, I found out Dio calls Pucci by his last name like everybody else so I updated the chapter with Dio flashbacks to call him Pucci normally. So, don't be confused by what happened to the chapter with Enrico.
If you like this fic, review, fav and follow and here we go. I wonder if I can get to be on TV Tropes...
STORY IS NOW.
Kaanin was a peaceful town. Sure, it started as a way to commemorate their Nazi allies back and had abandoned labs strewn around the outskirts and the forests but it was perfectly okay.
Until today.
Apparently during the sunset of a certain day, people who walked back home spotted something...odd. There were two floating machine guns flying in the middle of the air, moving around as if it was being held by somebody.
"Woah." A passerby looked at the floating guns at it went past him. People who saw the guns either stared at it until it left or just ran away, especially with parents with children or teens. Some idiots just followed the guns with their phones out.
"That a floating gun, man?" The passerby's friend took out his phone like any other person who followed them. The passerby blinked, seeing the guns and began walking towards them. "What are you doing? Come back here, you idiot!"
"Wait, I just wanna see..." The man went closer, reaching his hands slowly at the guns. "Are there strings? Are there balloons here-"
Suddenly the guns turned towards him. The man fell onto the floor in panic as his friend widened his ears along with the rest of the bystanders.
"DUDE!"
"Oh crap!"
"Run!" Some people who followed the guns fled the scene. The guns aimed at him still, carefully as it followed to target his head. The fool was currently pissing himself on the floor as people watched the standoff.
"P-Please don't shoot me."
Suddenly, as if it eyed something else, the guns turned to an alleyway where it someone fled into it just now. Out of nowhere it began firing the guns at a rapid rate, making everyone scream and run as the friend of the fool went to him.
"C'MON!" He grabbed his hand and they began running as the gun stopped firing and quickly went towards the alley.
"Found you." [Pumped Up Kicks] grinned, seeing the person who ran into the alley wore unmistakable shorts for the beach...
"So that's what came out? A [Stand]?" The group got out of the forest, seeing people run past them. Luckily it wasn't a stampede but some people just ran past them. "A projection of my soul?"
"Yeah, one that's independent and just shot its guns from what I see." Joren replied before he stopped a runner who was running away with something. "What's happening, a sale?"
"No! Some flying machine guns just began shooting like some sci-fi shit! It aimed at me before it began shooting up an alley! Run!" He ran back to his friend. Hearing screams of panic, Rize bit her lip.
"So...I was right that you hid something, all of you!" Rize said to them. "Hey, but why were you fighting the guy back there-"
"We'll explain it later, senpai!" Sharo told her crush. "But we need you to go to your [Stand] and make it disappear back into you."
"If you can even do that." Joren added. "Your [Stand] can make actually weaponry anyone can see, that's its ability and being independent from the user also. I feel like the user and the name of the [Stand] are conveniently appropriate."
"Where is it, JoJo-kun?" Cocoa asked him. "I wanna see Rize's [Stand] in action!"
"Cocoa-chan, we don't even know where it is-" Gunshots were heard. "Now we do."
"C'MON!" The boy yelled out and they began running to where the sounds came from.
"JORARARARARA!" [Pumped Up Kicks] cried out as it shot the electrical barrier with the machine guns, Bon was busy backed against the other side of the alley, his heart racing. "RARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARARA! JORA!"
"Oh fuck, oh fuck!" He cursed out, his accent still gone. "I came here to make quick money to buy a surfboard, I said I'd kill those kids as a joke! I even put on a funny accent as a joke also! Now this thing is hunting me down!"
[High Voltage] began shooting back with lightning bolts but the [Stand] it was shooting dodged each bolt through quick reaction speed. "Stand still! Please!"
"Your accent is gone, so that means it was a lie." It began jumping onto the wall then onto the other one and repeated to do it as it climbed towards the top to jump over the barrier!"
"GET AWAY FROM ME!" Before Bon could make a barrier above him, [Pumped Up Kicks] dove down to him, stomping on his head and making him fall on the floor. Bon clutched his head as it bled but the [Stand] grabbed his head and pushed him against the wall.
"You injure people, likely gaining money in process. A true soldier fights for his country, not caring if they'll get money in the process or dying in battle." It smacked Bon across the face with the butt of machine gun. "WHO GIVES YOU THE FUCKING RIGHT TO HAVE A [STAND]? HMM?!"
"I-I'm sorry!" Bon apologized, clutching his bleeding head. "I didn't even mean to hurt anyone...please! Don't kill me! My parents think I'm on vacation, they'll be worried sick about me-"
"Osama had parents, Hitler has parents, every terrorists has parents. I'm not supposed to feel bad at their parents for having such idiots for children." Aiming the gun at Bon's face, [Pumped Up Kicks] prepared to pull the trigger. "If it's okay, at least this will be quick-"
Suddenly a nail shot at the [Stand]'s arm, [Pumped up Kicks] grabbed its arm and turned to whoever shot her. At the side of the alley where it came from, Cocoa stood with her [Stand] on top of her head, her finger aimed at her. "Don't hurt that man, [PUK]-chan!"
"[PUK]-chan?" Everyone else joined Cocoa, all of them looking at the [Stand]. "Do not interfere, my issue is with this man and this man alone-"
"[SNOW HALATION]!" Chiya threw out her [Stand], [Snow Halation] going towards [PUK].
"Chiya, wait!" Joren protested. "Most [Stands] are connected to the user! There's not telling if that thing will damage Rize!"
"Wait, what?" Rize turned to head to him in shock. "It'll hurt me?!"
"Lucky day, scum." [PUK] spat the her hostage. "This is your lucky day." She grabbed him by the collar and pushed him towards [Snow Halation]. The gust of wind went to the man, freezing him in place. This provided a distraction for [Pumped Up Kicks] to start wall jumping to escape.
"S-Senpai! Make your [Stand], disappear!" Sharo told her but Rize shook her head.
"I don't know how!"
"Damn, you're useless today, woman!" Joren shouted, by then [PUK] was gone. "Crap, grab that surfer guy. We gotta run, Rize's [Stand] isn't done with us."
"My name is Bon!" Bon screamed through his ice cube prison.
"Okay, Bon." Joren corrected himself. "Grab that Bon guy." Bon frowned in the ice cube.
In a bar somewhere in Kaanin, Hol Horse and Tsumugu were stuck because the entire place was in lockdown. All of the patrons were looking at the TV, seeing footage of machine guns floating in midair and begin firing up and alleyway.
But in their perspective...
"Hol Horse..." Tsumugu whispered to his right-hand man. "Who was it that you sent?"
"Some college student named Bon. His [Stand] controls electricity, not shooting up places." Hol Horse replied. "Who's [Stand] is that?"
"For my guess, that Rize girl who hangs out with Joren." Tsumugu surmised. "Fits her personality well. Also it seems in that footage, she isn't around and her [Stand] went rogue."
"A [Stand] went rogue? I heard it a few times but seeing it up close..." They continued to watch the scene as a newscaster came back onto the screen.
"That is footage of tow floating firearms, all people of Kaanin, do not go outside, and if you are run to the nearest building and hide." The newscaster warned. "The law enforcements will handle this situation. The firearms are provoked by any attempted interaction, until it is dealt with, do not leave where you are until further notice. We shall keep up on what is happening, that is all."
Suddenly the bar erupted into conversation, mostly about how the hell machine guns are flying in the air in such a peaceful town such as Kaanin.
"M-My wife and children are coming from school!"
"I got a dog to feed!"
"I gotta poo but I don't wanna use this toilet!"
"Ugh. Hope Bon is alright." Tsumugu groaned out. "Dunno how skilled that [Stand] is physical, can't be good for him at least. Bon had a fun persona."
"C'mon..." They dragged an injured Bon across the empty street. They were out in the open but they needed to be noticed by anybody who can help them because Bon was bleeding by the head and it was the only way to stop [PUK]'s rampage.
"I gotta ask you something." Rize carried the man who her [Stand] tried to kill. "Why are you hurting my friends? Why?!" She grit her teeth, threatening to drop the man.
"My boss, Tsumugu said he'd paid anyone even if they failed capturing you guys. Says he's the son of a [Stand] user who can stop time and had lots of treasure..." Bon coughed out. "I didn't even mean to h-hurt anyone, just show him that I beat them and lie about them getting away from me. I didn't ask for any of this..."
"Well, too bad this happened." Sharo told him in a disgusted tone as she helped carry him. "You shocked me and my friends. After this, you better not show your face in front of me again."
Rize blinked, surprised by how intimidating Sharo sounded. "Wow, Sharo you actually sounded scary."
"R-Really?" Sharo stammered. "I-I won't be like that if you don'y like it, senpai!" Rize rolled her eyes, seeing that was the Sharo they knew and loved.
"JoJo-kun! Are you detecting anything?" Cocoa asked, seeing Joren attempt to detect any life around them.
"No. [Stands] are manifestations of the soul. Of course, I can't detect it but worth the shot." They saw a man wearing the uniform that was recognizable all over. "Well my old man wasn't wrong about sending the Foundation here!"
"Hey! You kids shouldn't be out here-" The Speedwagon Foundation paused, eyeing them closer. "Holy crap-um...Mr. Joestar! Are you okay?" The member shouted out, running after them.
"Mr. Joestar's my old man, not me." The boy deadpanned as he ran. "This guy needs medical attention here-"
Bang.
To their horror, the Speedwagon Foundation was shot in the shoulder. This made him fall onto the floor, screaming in pain. "G-GAAAAH!"
"U-Up there!" Sharo pointed at the rooftop of a building, a sniper rifle was pointing at their direction. "H-How did it get a sniper rifle?!"
"[HIGH VOLTAGE]!" Bon summoned a barrier that blocked another bullet from hitting them. They saw the Foundation member bleeding on the floor, Chiya and Cocoa ran to him as [PUK] was busy shooting at the barrier.
"Are you okay?" Cocoa and Chiya grabbed the man and began dragging him behind the barrier. The man was groaning and wincing in pain as blood from the shoulder dropped on Chiya's clothes to her discomfort.
"The b-bullet went through me." He told the two girls. "W-Who hit me? Was it a [Stand]?" The man frantically asked. "W-Why did it shoot me?"
They dragged the man behind the barrier with them, everyone else taking a look at the hurt innocent. "Shoot! Rize, [Pumped Up Kicks] is trying to make sure nobody can save Bon." Joren exclaimed, frightened at how far her [Stand] was going just to kill Bon. "HEY! This guy is innocent? Why'd you shoot him?!"
"It's black and white morality in the battlefield!" [PUK] shouted. "If something's in the way of my goal, then I get over it one way or another!"
"BUT SHOOTING THEM?!"
"Oh please! Don't tell me you've been shot before!" The [Stand] attempted to move around but something it didn't expect happen.
"[ZOOM PUNCH]!" Sharo's fist went towards its arm, punching it. Rize clenched her own arm, feeling the force of the fist scrapping across it. Everyone turned to Rize, seeing the confirmation that [PUK]'s pain transferred to her own.
Sharo then immediately grabbed the sniper rifle out of the [Stand]'s arms, pulling it back to the group. [Pumped Up Kicks] had a confused expression but calmed itself down.
"So you have a [Stand] too, Sharo?" [PUK] wondered out loud, seeing the gun snatched from its hands.
"No! That wasn't a [Stand], that was [Sendo]!" Joren declared proudly for his student. "Good work Sharo!"
The boy began rubbing the blonde's head in congratulations but Sharo began blushing while holding the gun. "C-Can you get your hand off my head, JoJo?"
"Well, this is a misstep." Then from its back, it pulled out another gun unfortunately which was another sniper rifle. "Exactly the same..."
The brown-haired girl looked at the gun, seeing how...perfect it was to the one in Sharo's hand. "R-Rize-chan's [Stand]...!" Chiya realized the ability, still holding onto the Foundation member. "It's able to make guns from Rize-chan's memory!"
"Eh?" Rize blinked, looking at her [Stand] with awe. "My...memory?"
"You seem to have figured it out Chiya." [PUK] complimented from afar. "My ability is any gun from Rize's memory, from our reality can be pulled from my back along its ammo." Suddenly the [Stand] pulled out a grenade launcher. "I cannot spawn any explosives or any fictional firearm, however if I spawn the right weapon, explosives come with it."
The air went silent as it aimed the grenade launcher at them. "However I do not wish to harm my user and kill myself." Everyone sighed afterward. [Pumped Up Kicks] then jumped into the air, holding the sniper rifle and aiming it above them.
"I-IT'S UP ABOVE!" The Speedwagon Foundation member yelled out, seeing the firearm flying over them.
"Bang-" Before it could do a quote, the [Stand]'s gun was shot by something, knocking another sniper rifle out out of its hands again. "What was that-"
"Finally I hit something with this gun!" They all turned to see a man who vaguely resembled a cowboy holding a gun (at least in the [Stand] users' perspectives).
"H-Hol Horse?!" Joren was down right confused. [PUK] rolled back onto the ground and saw who shot it.
"Okay. Now you're also on my hit list-" [PUK] reacted quickly and grabbed a fist in midair. "W-What the-"
"Is that a GHOST?!" Rize pointed at a man who fitted all the right descriptions for being a ghost. His fists sparkled with [Hamon] as it tried pushing his hand towards the [Stand].
"T-Tsumugu-san?!" Cocoa also shouted out, confused
"All of you brings those two to the medical section now!" Hol Horse told them. "We'll handle this from here! We won't hurt the [Stand] for your friend's sake!"
"B-But-" For some odd reason, Cocoa wanted to fight alongside them but the man on her back was bleeding. "Alright! Thanks Hol Horse-san!"
They group began moving away from the fight, dragging the two injured away from the [Stand]. "You came here in a Foundation ambulance thanks to your uniform, where are the directions?" Joren asked the man as he helped carry Bon also.
"T-Take a left..." The Foundation member instructed and they did. Behind them, there was a Western standstill going on with a ghost, a cowboy, and a soldier.
"Hol Horse...do you want to see who has the stronger guns?" Hol Horse turned to his boss, as if he was just insulted. "Just shoot and not kill, alright?"
"AYE AYE, SIR!" Hol Horse agreed as they both charged towards the [Stand].
"Joren, it would be more helpful if you stopped being a LALALAND AND HELP US!" Rize yelled at him due to him moving more sluggishly than them. "Can you please move a bit more? I don't want this guy dying on me, I don't want a death hanging over on me yet."
"My [Earth Angel]'s ability is to detect any form of life in its radius." He stated, waking up from his trance. "This would not be possible IF YOU DIDN'T DIG THROUGH MY THINGS TO THINK I WAS HAVING SEX!"
"Jeez, can you both shut up!" Bon yelled at both of them. "You two sound like an unhappy married couple! If both of you can't stop bitching around, I'd rather take my chances with her [Stand]! Alright, you shitheads?!"
The two went quiet, an uncomfortable silence loomed over them as they still dragged the injured men. Sharo finally broke the silence. "Um...how did you meet your bosses? You know, the guy who paid you to be here?"
"Yeah, that's a real question I've never thought of!" Joren realized that. "How did you get in contact with them."
"Through the [Stand] underworld."
"[Stand] underworld?" The boy knew the Passione existed but Giorno took over that. "You mean the Passione?"
"The Pass-what? No, there's a website called ." He told them. "When people ask what are [Stands], some guys who are really well in the internet or the street tell them about that website. Contains so much information like where what [Stands] are, even job openings for users on there like those Passione guys you said!"
"R-Really?" The other man questioned. "We didn't know that."
"Well too bad you Speedwagon guys are busy helping the Middle East with their terrorist guys." Bon retorted. "Website's been there since 2010, normal people think it's like the SCP site."
'So that's where Tsumugu got his bastards!' Joren thought. "It has job openings?"
"Yeah, but I was warned it maybe some trap for terrorists but this Tsumugu guy, he showed a video of himself with actually money! Real green stuff if ya know what I mean."
"Hey!" Rize called out, waving her hand as they approached the ambulances from the Foundation. "We need help here!"
"Oh my goodness." A member gasped out. "There are two injured over there, looks like...one of our own is one of the injured!"
Soon, people with stretchers came towards them. Afterward they put the two on the stretchers, bringing them towards the ambulances.
"Tell Tsumugu that he can pay me through my mail..." Bon told Joren before closing his eyes to rest. Rize turned to see Joren talking to what it appears to be the leader of these workers.
"Now I want you to investigate that website but don't shut it down unless I have to say." The boy told him. "Also if you can contain this incident with any excuse for flying guns. I want this town to live a quiet life."
"Understood." The man nodded before walking away. He turned back to Rize, having a sheepish and awkward look on his face.
"Look...I-"
"I'm sorry." She interrupted him and apologized. "I've been making it hard for you around the Rabbit House, how was I supposed to know you were busy with your [Stand] stuff and things." Rize was blushing at this point.
"Uh, Rize..."
"And another thing!" She continued. "Sharo told me that why you guys were sneaking out was because you were teaching her that [Nipple] stuff-"
"[Ripple]!" He corrected her. "Also we gotta go...you know, you got a [Stand] to vanish."
"O-Oh, right!" The two ran off. Cocoa, Sharo, and Chiya looked behind them to see the two run off.
"JOJO-KUN! RIZE-CHAN!" Cocoa called them, running after them.
[Pumped Up Kicks] was jumping around the street while Hol Horse his [Emperor] to stop any gun it was taking out carefully without harming the [Stand] as [Whiplash] just attempted to restrain the [Stand].
"You're not making this easier." Tsumugu frowned, even going through the [Stand] just to grab the hand but its reflexes were too fast even though it has higher than average speed.
"Hmph! Terrorist bastards like you should be put down." [PUK] spat out, attempting to take out a gun but the gun was shot by [Emperor]'s bullets. "Stop...shooting...I can't...JORA!" All the guns were repeatedly shot the ground, even attempting to pick them up will give a chance for Tsumugu to grab [PUK].
It ran to the building and ran up to the top of the building it attempted to snipe earlier as Tsumugu followed it. Then suddenly [PUK] grasped onto something it pulled from its back.
"This is getting too easy!" The bullet of [Emperor] homed onto the gun of [PUK], shooting the pistol but then suddenly it took out another gun, concealed from its back and threw it at Hol Horse. "What the-?!"
The gun itself hit Hol Horse in the neck, the man grasped his throat, going onto the floor. "G-GACK!"
"Well that takes care of that." [Pumped Up Kicks] rolled away from Tsumugu, being surprised Hol Horse got down so easily. "You must have your user somewhere nearby..."
[PUK] peeked down at at the alleyway below the building and saw a man on a chair, sleeping with the same appearance as the ghost. "You should really conceal yourself better."
"Well excuse me if I don't have time for that." The ghost went back to its user who shook his head to wake up. "Crap-"
Suddenly Tsumugu felt three bullets pierce his body. His arm, his chest, then his leg. The arm and leg had the bullets go through them but his chest had a bulletproof vest underneath (for extra measure) but the backlash made him fall down with his chair.
"I finally got you." [PUK] held a shotgun to his face. "You have nowhere to run now."
"Oh dear." Tsumugu looked, wondering if there even a simple blade of grass near him but only the cobblestone floors made up the floor. He felt his hair get grabbed and was dragged back onto the street with an unconscious Hol Horse, guns littering the place.
"I finally have you." [PUK] had a sadistic grin, holding the shotgun over them. "I'll end that Bon later, but first-"
"Stop it right there!" [PUK] turned its head, seeing its user and Joren run up to them with everyone else following afterward. The [Stand] looked at them, having a very annoyed look. "Rize, make your [Stand] disappear!"
Joren commanded her but Rize had a confused look. "I-I don't know how!"
"You summoned it! Make is go away!" He told her. "It's holding a shotgun! Hurry up and do it!"
"I don't even know how I made it appear!"
"Enough." [Pumped Up Kicks] pulled out another machine gun, aiming the shotgun at Tsumugu and Hol Horse whilst holding the machine gun at them. "Tell me where Bon is."
"Probably long away from you..." Joren told the [Stand]. "Just go back to your user, the entire town is going apeshit because of you. Want this to be the town called: 'where two machine guns tried killing us'. The ECONOMY though!"
They all frowned at the boy emphasizing the economy at this time. Rize went forward and walked towards her [Stand], frowning.
"S-Senpai! Stop!" Sharp tried run after her but was stopped by Chiya and Cocoa. "G-Girls-?"
"Don't worry, Rize-chan's got this. I can tell." Chiya winked at her but that didn't help anything. Rize carefully approached [PUK] who just stared at her in response.
"Y-You!" She pointed at it. "Stop doing this right now!"
"I don't have to listen to you even if you are my user." [PUK]'s fingers were getting closer to the trigger. "Go back there before-"
Suddenly out of nowhere, Rize just slapped her [Stand] in the face. Everyone just looked agape at her when she did that. The girl felt her own slap go onto her cheek before she raised a finger.
"LISTEN SOLDIER!" She began berating her [Stand] in the tone of a military commander. "STOP THAT GODDAMN RACKET RIGHT NOW!"
"What the hell are you-OMF!" [PUK] felt a fist uppercut its face. Rize felt the pain also but then banged the [Stand] by the helmet and felt that also. "What are you doing Rize-sama?!"
[PUK] was the held by the collar, Rize pulled it so they were face to face and she had the most terrifying expression ever made. "CALL ME MA'AM YOU LITTLE SHIT!"
"Y-Yes Ma'am!"
"Wow, Rize's really getting into this." Joren whispered to Cocoa as they watched. "Her [Stand]'s now becoming like her."
"NOW I WANT YOU TO APOLOGIZE TO THAT MAN AND HIS UNCONSCIOUS FRIEND RIGHT THIS INSTANT! DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?!"
"O-Okay!"
"WHAT?!"
"I mean, y-yes Ma'am!" [PUK] turned to Tsumugu, bowing down. "I apologize for what I have done. Please forgive me."
Tsumugu didn't even know what was happening, he just nodded slowly in response.
"NOW DROP AND GIVE ME TWENTY!"
"Y-Yes, Ma'am!" [Pumped Up Kicks] went to the floor and began doing pushups. Rize went to her friends and watched as her [Stand] followed her commands.
"Am I doing okay?"
"You're doing great, senpai!" Sharo gave approval but then titled her head. "But you hurt yourself when you hurt your [Stand]..."
"I'm alright!" Rize assured them, still wincing at how strong of an uppercut sue had. "Wait, it looks like it's done. HEY! NOW I WANT YOU TO CLEAN UP ALL THESE GUNS! THEY'RE EVERYWHERE!"
"O-Okay!"
[PUK] began running around to pick up all of the guns on the floor and began shoving it back in its back. "ALL OF IT!" The [Stand] then went to the roof also the grab the firearms it left there. When it finally cleaned every last gun from street to rooftop before returning to Rize.
"NEVER DO THIS AGAIN, SOLDIER! UNDERSTAND?!"
"Y-Yes Ma'am!"
"NOW GO BACK INSIDE OF ME AND DON'T GET BACK OUT UNTIL I GIVE YOU ORDERS TO DO SO!"
There was this long awkward silence between them now.
"I believe only you have that power, Ma'am." [PUK] told her and Rize blinked.
"Joren!" She called out and the boy groaned and went towards her, he began whispering extremely specific instructions on how to make her [Stand] vanish. "Alright."
She turned to her [Stand], concentrating hard. [Pumped Up Kicks] disappeared, going back inside of its user. "Wait, hold on." Rize made [PUK] return back onto the physical world and just looked confused. "Okay, there we go." She made it disappear again, thankfully for good.
"Woo! We did it!" Cocoa cheered happily. It wasn't before ling that Joren turned to where Tsumugu and Hol Horse were but they were missing, likely vanishing during the berating of the [Stand]. Everyone who knew him wondered why'd they help them but that didn't matter now, they were still alive thankfully.
"Looks like you kept that [Stand] in check." Joren complimented Rize. "Better keep it that way."
"Right." She replied, nodding. "You still have a lot of explaining to do for me."
"Yeah..." He trailed off. "But tomorrow. Chino and Takahiro must be sick for all of us."
"Right, right, right. My dad is wondering where I am now." Rize suddenly pulled out a gun from her back, a musket. "C-Cool! I can do this now? Sharo, you did good out there with that zooming punch!"
"R-Really?" Sharo stammered, becoming flustered. "Ugh..." She began turning red, repeating a cycle that will likely last through her entire life.
"Cocoa-san, JoJo-san!" Chino ran up to them once they entered the Rabbit House. "I've been worried sick for you two." She hugged Cocoa to their surprise, rubbing her head in them.
"We have. We even called you but your phones weren't picking up." Takahiro then went to them. "What happened?"
"We got dragged in a café during the lockdown, Takahiro-san!" Cocoa made a really good excuse that Joren didn't need to make. "Don't worry! We weren't hurt or anything. Am I your onii-chan now, Chino-chan!"
Chino, realizing what she was doing immediately backed away from Cocoa. "That's a relief. This is the biggest ruckus I've seen in this town my entire life."
"I still can't believe some people found experiments from those old labs and let them loose." Takahiro added. "I also can't believe they made flying guns."
Apparently Joren gave the best excuse for the Speedwagon Foundation to make which was some dumbass adventurers travelled to the old WWII facilities and accidentally set loose two machine guns that are meant to fly around but weren't working right. (He didn't even know how this excuse worked).
"Good thing they have those guns and are clearing up all the other labs." Chino said to them. "This has been a truly bizarre day."
"Yeah...bizarre..." The boy agreed. "Don't worry about the other. We've called them and they're okay."
"That's a relief." Chino sighed. "I guess we can't open the Rabbit House today until tomorrow."
"We'll just...head upstairs." Joren began going to the upstairs, having some very important info to look up.
"JoJo-kun! Wait up!" Cocoa chased after them. Chino and her father wondered what made them go in such a hurry. Tippy joined them soon after, looking concerned.
"They seem to be hiding something, Chino-chan." The rabbit told his granddaughter.
"It's kinda obvious, Pop." Takahiro deadpanned. "I'm not the one to judge but if it comes to it; maybe we should spy on them."
Chino nodded in response. 'Cocoa-san and JoJo-san seem unfazed about guns flying around...what's in their minds to forget about what happened earlier?'
"Here it is." Joren was on his IPad and found the website with Cocoa next to him. It was and he was skimming through several videos offering job openings for [Stand] users. "Where is it..."
"There!" Cocoa pointed at a video of Tsumugu in the thumbnail. "Click it, JoJo-kun."
"Okay, don't tell me twice." He clicked on it and the video began playing.
"Is this on?" Tsumugu looked at the camera closely. "Okay? Good." He sat back on a chair in the middle of a room. "Hello viewers! I'm-"
His camera fell.
"FUCK!" He ran and grabbed it and put it back on the stand. He adjusted it again and winced. "This is starting up terrible, gotta return this camera soon...anyway, hello viewers!"
He greeted at the audience, his chair in the middle of the room. "Sorry if I can't edit anything else out or the quality of the footage. I'm not good in computers." He sheepishly rubbed the back of his head. "Anyhow, most of you are [Stand] users correct? Well, I happen to be looking for some [Stand] users myself to help me."
From his pocket, he took out a photo which was the Speedwagon Foundation's HQ. Tsumugu went closer to the camera, holding it. "See it? This is the location of the Speedwagon Foundation's headquarters. I need to steal something from it, so I need a group to help me."
He then went back to the camera, grabbed it then turned the camera to the corner of the room he was was in, revealing a huge pile of treasure in the corner. Tsumugu went closer towards it, zooming the camera to show the shininess of the gold and jewels.
"Yup, these are a hundred and one percent real folks." He grabbed what it appeared to be a diamond from it and showed it off. "Wow, that is shiny. Anyone who goes and meets me in front of the Speedwagon Foundation's HQ will be paid. As long as you contribute, you will all be paid equally if you've survived. I'll tell you what we will steal when we get there and formulate a plan in two days tops in a week from this video's release which is...I dunno."
Tsumugu turned the camera away from the treasure. "Also one more thing. If you want some more money, visit Kaanin, Japan to find me again if you can a few days after my heist. If you do, visit me. I got a new job for you and more money!" He held some gold coins and dropped them in front of the camera to emphasize his point.
"OW!" He grasped his foot. "Those were too many coins! Ow, ow, ow-"
The video ended right there. From what the two could gather, this was how Tsumugu recruited all of his underlings, this also explains how he convinced them to get here despite how bad the video was. Also this was posted anonymously so nobody could track it. The only way to get more info was Bon who was likely on anesthetics by now.
"So, Rize-chan has a [Stand] now, Tsumugu-san has lots of treasure, and we found a weird website." Cocoa reviewed what happened today. "I can't wait to tell my onii-chan about this."
"You have a sister?"
"Yeah, and two older brothers. I want you all to meet them but my big brothers are busy with school..." She bit her lip. "So, am I going to meet anyone from your family?"
"Well, my brother Josuke is coming."
"J-Josuke-san?!" She stuttered out from excitement. "Your brother who beat [Killer Queen]!"
"Yeah. Guess he did." Joren then remembered something. "Oh shoot the [Gyro Ball]!" He ran back to the closet, he looked up and saw the box of condoms Rize left visible. "RIIIIIIIZZZZEEEEEEEE!"
Somewhere else in Japan, a man wearing a police uniform looked at his baggage and then at the taxi right in front of him. The man, who was in disguise bowed down as a greeting.
"Hello Captain Higashikata, are you set?" He asked. The man looked at his baggage another time before nodding. "Great, let's go. Have me take your bags."
The Foundation member went to the man named Josuke and grabbed his bags for him. Josuke seems like he never aged after 1999, as it looked like he was an adult by then. Instead of the Morioh Police Department uniform he wore, he was wore a buttoned black overcoat over his green shirt and black pants. The most striking feature of his was still there, a pompadour that was groomed to perfectly.
"Hey, Josuke!" The man turned to see his friend, Okuyasu try to catch up to him. Okuyasu hasn't changed either, being Tonio's busboy and doing some odd jobs throughout Morioh sometimes. "Can you at least let me join? Doing all these jobs are great and all but another adventure with you..."
"Sorry Okuyasu but I don't want to arouse suspicion from this Tsumugu fellow." Says the guy with a pompadour. "I would really but I can't."
"Aw..." Okuyasu looked disheartened. "Can you at least send me some food in that town? They serve rabbits, I hear."
"Populated by rabbits, not serving rabbits."
"Captain?" The Foundation member called out and Josuke stiffened.
"Oh, time for me to go. Take care of my mom, not in a weird way, alright?" Josuke got in the car, Okuyasu began waving as the taxi drove off.
"O-Okay." Okuyasu looked at the Higashikata residence before shrugging to head back to work as the taxi continued its way to the airport.

[Stand] Name: [Whiplash]
[Stand] User: Tsumugu Brando
Destructive Power- E
Speed- C
Range- B
Durability- A
Precision- B
Development Potential- D
Abilities- The [Stand] allows it's user to go as 'astral' or ghostly projection where they can fly and go through objects but can't interact with things in the physical world, even other [Stands]. The ghostly form can posses non-[Stand] users but not actual [Stand] users, it can only 'influence' them like planting a command in the target's subconscious but this can be broken through extreme willpower. [Whiplash] can possess any living thing and have access to their memories. Somehow with every possession and 'influence', it leaves a star-shaped birthmark at the back of the neck to the victim. The [Stand] has a true form and [Hamon] can flow through the ghost, enabling it to have contact with the physical world briefly but it's setback by being a low conductor of [Hamon] which results the [Hamon] to be weak and having a very limited time to be used even if a [Ripple] user pours all their [Hamon] into the ghost. The [Stand] still can be used even as a possessed.
That...took way longer than I expected.
I edited two chapters, one to put italics in one sentence, other is to remove the reference Josuke having a girlfriend. I don't wanna contradict myself later so I changed it.
Also I got Dragon Age: Origins, I love it so far. Some here is some info on Joren if you want. Joren's favorite anime of all time is CLANNAD, Joren's favorite food is steak, Joren had a fear of swimming, he has Aspergers, also the girl he likes the most of everyone is Sharo but that won't affect anything...
If you like this story, review, follow, fav and I will see you next chapter. I rewrote this to change [PUK]'s [Stand] cry.
