Alice became more closed off as they continued on their journey, causing a bit of concern in the group, but they had bigger issues to deal with then with a moody teenage girl. . . .or so they thought. When it came time to fight Enyaba, Alice had little regards for the zombie hoard Enyaba had summoned and busted in before the doors were sealed off, Alice's stand out and she was trying to keep control of it when Enyaba looked at her with a twisted smile. "Kekeke, that stand. . . . .Good to finally look upon you face to face, my how you've come into fruition!". Alice saw past the woman and her mist stand was Polnareff and he was wounded. Her control on her rage started to slip as Alice found herself asking in an eerily calm manner, "You. . . . .you wouldn't happen to be the wretched woman who gave life to centerfold, would you?. . . .". Enyaba's twisted grin faltered a moment before she said, "Yes. . . .that I am. Does that ENRAGE you, dearie?~". Alice began to tremble softly as she felt her control slipping as she said, "Tell me, then. . . . why. . . .why did my innocent older brother have to die?. . .And Avdol?. . . . . . .what purpose did either of their deaths serve?. . . .". Enyaba cackled before saying with a twisted glee to her tone, "You still have not realized the true potential of your stand yet, have you dearie? Your stand is the stand of The Beast! A tarot card dictated to be wild, untamed, and filled with rage! My lord wanted that sort of potential under his control, so I told my son to give you a little push so that you would snap and your stand would manifest. However, you disappointed us greatly at first by trying to suppress it and not seek out my master's help.". Alice felt the last bit of her restraint to keep her rage under control give away as her trembling stopped and one last thought passed through her mind, "Rage?. . . . .You wanted. . . . . .. .to see my rage. . . . . . . . come into fruition?. . . . . . . .".
Her bangs hid her eyes a moment as she began to glow an amber hue as her stand manifested next to her. She let out a long breath, like a beast when it's muzzle is removed, showing off her sharp canines. With that breath. . . . . . .she had finally snapped, giving into her carnal rage as her stand's claws and fangs got a bit longer and when she looked up and stared Enyaba down, Alice's eyes glowed an eerie amber hue, just like her stand's as they were both now in a fighting stance a moment. Alice moved quickly, fueled by her pent up rage as she ran almost at an inhuman speed at Enyaba, mimicking her stand's movements as they attacked Enyaba head on with the feriosity of an enraged beast! Alice had no rythme nor reason to her strengthened attacks as she let out an ear-splitting scream as her stand roared in sync with her, as if the sound alone could knock Enyaba back. Enyaba had her mist stand protect her as she laughed mockingly at Alice, only fueling Alice's rage. "Kekeke, that's right, get enraged! Go mad with it and show I and my lord the true potential of your stand, THE BEAST!", Enyaba called out with twisted glee. However, when Alice was subsequently slammed into the wall by Enyaba's stand, Jotaro stepped in.
Enyaba had almost forgot about Jotaro and was quickly taken down by Star Platnium. Alice whipped her head to look at Jotaro with her teeth bared as she stood shakily up. Her stand's claws raked up the wall, leaving an amber trail in the wake of it's claw marks dug into the wall. In the mindset she was in, she couldn't tell friend from foe. She charged at him, but Star Platnium tried to only hold her back as Jotaro snapped at her, "Yare yare daze, drop the act already! You are starting to piss me o-", but the scratch that appeared on his cheek from Alice's Stand's claws, the amber formation left in the cut, and the wild look in her eyes confirmed she was not in the right mindset to just be reasoned with. She was promptly knocked back from him and even though she hit the wall, she got to her feet once more and was going to lunge when Silver Chariot appeared before her and Polnareff grabbed her ankle so she could not move. "Alice, please, snap out of it! I know you are angry, but look, we defeated both your brother's killer and his wretched mother, does that not give you some semblance of peace?". Alice's stand only snarled in response as it was getting ready to lash out. Silver Chariot grabbed both of her stand's wrist before it could lash out as Polnareff said, "So what if you are angry?! Your brother is avenged, isn't he?! What about Holly?! Do you want her to befall the same fate as Avdol or your brother because you couldn't keep your rage in check?! Your actions have consequences, Alice, but I am not going to let it get the best of you yet! I swear on my honor!". Alice froze, as did her stand, as his words got through to Alice and her twisted look of pure rage gave away to one of remorse as the tears began to form in her eyes. ". . . .I. . . . . .", was all she could choke out before her stand disappeared and she let herself be vunerable. Silver Chariot pulled Alice close, allowing her to break down and cry in it's arms.
After she sobered up from her moment of vulnerability and she wiped away her own tears, Alice felt her soul more at ease, if only for the moment. They still had to continue on their journey and Alice was quiet now, keeping to herself once more. That is, until they had to fight the Lovers Stand user. As this self-entitled prick explained away his ability and gave a demonstration, Alice felt her rage boil up once more upon seeing Mr. Joestar get hurt. She stepped forward and snapped at the prick, "You goddamn prick, picking on the old man to get your way?! You disgust me!". He only smirked and said, "If I piss you off so much then go ahead-", he held out his arms now, "-Hit me~". Alice bared her teeth and clenched her fists, trembling from rage, but she did not strike him, no matter how much she really wanted to! She spat, glaring down this self-entitled prick, "And let Mr. Joestar get hurt?! As if I'd be so fucking selfish!". To appease the stand user, Jotaro played along and did whatever The Lovers Stand user asked as Alice and the rest stayed back with Mr. Joestar. They formulated a plan to try to secretly remove the Lovers stand from him as he used his hermit purple on a nearby tv to see what was going on inside him. Alice did not know how to shrink down her stand, but she had it form a smaller amber formation of itself that followed Hierophant Green and Silver Chariot up through the blood stream and into Mr. Joestar's Brain. When it was revealed there was a double, Amber Claw moved quickly and took the hit instead of Silver Chariot. Alice flinched as the gut area on the Amber Claw's cracked a bit, feeling the bruising on her lower ribs as a bit of blood was coughed up. "Alice!", both Polnareff and Mr. Joestar cried out in alarm, but Alice held her stomach as she choked out through gritted teeth, "F-Focus on the stand!". The Lovers Stand began to rattle off a long-winded story relating back to how great he was as it began to multiply, despite their repeated attacks against the stand's clones. Amber Claw moved quick upon hearing one of the clones shout out and took one down, but Polnareff was still hit in the back by one of them. Upon seeing him hurt, Alice's stand reacted accordingly to her sudden righteous fury, ripping through the wave and after wave of the clones of the Lover's stand. Mr. Joestar headed for Polnareff and Alice to withdrawal their stands and before Polnareff could speak up, Alice said, "I'm not gonna let another person I care about die on me! Your life is in Peril, Polnareff is hurt, and I'll be damned if Kakyoin is left alone to fight off this prick's stand!". Though her lower ribs and her gut ached, making it secretly harder for her to breath, she was able to put up a strong enough front that mr. Joestar gave them the go-ahead. In a twist, Hierophant Green was able to ensnare the clones of and the real Lover stand before striking it! It escaped from Mr. Joestar and as Alice withdrew her stand's Amber formation, her vision began to get blurry. The ache in her abdominal area intensified a moment as she leaned against Polnareff to steady herself/catch her breath. She didn't know it at the time, but she had bruised her ribs.
Eventually, they reached an island on their misdirected adventure. Polnareff gave his condolences to Avdol's father and Alice couldn't look the man in the eye. Her pride dictated her inability to do so. However, when she noted Polnareff had wandered off. She had a terrible gut-feeling about this, so she rushed off to find him. She stopped a bit back, noticing him talking to what looked like a stand. She was on the defense before she heard him say something about wanting to be an artist then change it to wanting a girlfriend. She sighed, thoroughly annoyed with his overdramatic displays. "If he wasn't so stupid, he'd notice me", the thought crossed her mind and she took a moment to question herself on it. However, upon hearing him change it up one last time, her heart ached a bit. He had wished for his sister and for Avdol back to life. The thing she thought was a stand disappeared in smoke and she saw Polnareff rush to speak with a dark-haired girl standing naked in the brush. This girl. . . . she was his sister? Alice looked to Polnareff and saw the genuine happiness, making her heart soften a bit. She placed a hand over her chest to calm her aching heart as the tears welled up in her eyes. she was so touched by this, that she was completely blindsided when his sister attacked him. Alice's breath caught in her throat as her panic skyrocketed. Her feet moved on their own as she rushed to protect him as the thing that was his sister circled around him in the brush as he fell to the ground. The stand, that she now found out was the Judgement stand, appeared and explained itself, teasing Polnareff after Polnareff had tried to make his final wish with anguish in his eyes. She had reached him as both his sister and Avdol had tackled him to the ground and were eating away from him. He seemed to be blacking out and she screamed out, her stand manifesting itself as she leaped up to attack both of them for Polnareff's sake, "POOOOOOOOLNAAAAAAAAAREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEF!". She was glowing an amber hue, but this time, she was in control of her stand's power as she attacked them both, knocking them away and standing protectively over him now. In a twist, the REAL Avdol appeared and helped her out in defeating Cameo! Polnareff came to, shocked by seeing that Avdol had not really died and Alice had rushed to his aid once more. Alice kept attacking the fakes, fueled by her rage at seeing Polnareff so wounded as she said with a snarl, "DAMN YOU! DAMN YOU, DAMN YOU, DAMN YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU! YOU BASTARD, YOU TWISTED A GOOD AND HONORABLE MAN'S INNOCENT WISH AGAINST HIM, RENDERING HIM UNABLE TO FIGHT THOSE WHO HE CARED FOR?! I'LL KILL YOU FOR DOING THIS TERRIBLE, LOWLY, UNHOLY THING AGAINST HIM, I'LL KILL YOU, I'LL KILL YOU, I'LL KILL YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU!". She was knocked back by Cameo and quickly tried to get to her feet, ignoring the roaring ache of her bruised abdomen/lower ribs only to be struck by the stand once more before Red Magician interveined. She dug her nails into the dirt as she coughed up a bit of blood before choking out, "Y-You. . . bastard. . . . .t-to do. . . something so wretched. . . .. to such . . . . .an honorable man. . . . .Its. . . . .", tears came to her eyes as she felt her heartache more then the bruised ribs/abdomen that left her unable to get up, let alone breath properly at that moment, "Far. . . . too. . . . .cruel. . . . .". Her vision became blurry and she laid on the ground as she tried to catch her breath, the iron taste in her mouth still was helping her fight loosing consciousness.
Once the stand and the false copies were defeated along with the stand user, Polnareff walked over to make sure Alice was ok to see her struggle to her feet. She looked like she had been crying and she wiped the blood from her mouth before she asked him, "Are you alright?". He helped her to her feet as he said with a soft look in his eyes, "I was going to ask you the same thing". She didn't look him in the eyes as she said, lightly hitting him in the side as she did not have the strength to hit him full force, "You were stupid, and selfish, to wish such careless things the go and act like there isn't people relying on you?! Don't pull that stupid shit ever again or I will kill you myself, you idiotic Frenchman!". Polnareff stayed silent, letting her yell at him, as he was reflecting over the words he had overheard her say previously when she protected him, the fact she looked like she had been crying, and the red tint of the blood still left on her lips. Avdol looked at them both and shook his head. He saw that both loved each other, but due to the mission, both were oblivious to the other's feelings.
