Hello Everybody! (╯✧▽✧)╯

I hope you guys are having a wonderful Friday! A new chapter is finally here! I actually had the chapter ready last week, but I changed a few things since I wasn't happy with how it turned out at first. But now I'm more satisfied with how it turned out so here it is!

Enjoy! ～('▽^人)

Alessi's Divine Set, Part 2

"CHARIOT!" Polnareff called out his Stand quickly as the axe charged at him.

The child-Silver Chariot used it's hilt to stop the ax but it was no use. Alessi applied more force and it was too much for Silver Chariot to handle that the small Stand was pushed against the wall. The blade of the ax stabbed its wrist.

Polnareff stood there in horror seeing the blood gush out from his Stand then he too received the same wound and pain from it. Polnareff cried out in pain and held his wrist close to him to prevent any blood from escaping.

"T-There's no way I can overpower him!" He muttered. His eyes widened when he realized the woman who was taking care of him was no longer in the room with them.

"S-She gone… " Polnareff looked around. "W-Where did she go? She was just here a minute ago.. I didn't hear her scream or anything, so what happened?! Where'd she go?!"

Alessi snickered and glanced down at Polnareff. He had a wicked grin on his face. "Polnareff…" His hands reached out to him and grabbed him by the neck, picking him up from the floor.

"You said the shampoo was stinging your eyes, yes?" He watched the boy struggle, he was kicking and flailing his arms around. "Well, if it stings so badly…" Alessi walks over to the bathtub and with no hesitation, he slams Polnareff into the water.

"...then let's wash it all out! Very thoroughly!"

Polnareff desperately tried to fight back but his arms were too short to reach Alessi. He waved his arms in the water looking for the drain plug. He found it and quickly pulled it to let the water sink.

"Pulled the plug, eh? You little shit!" Alessi said and placed his hands around Polnareff's small head. "But here's the thing…" He dragged Polnareff closer to the drain.

Polnareff's hair was now being pulled into the drain, slowing down the water from being drained.

Alessi snickered, "You still won't be able to breathe if the tub takes too long to drain! Will it drain in five minutes? Or maybe ten?" He moved his face close to Polnareff. "Do you feel despair? Then I'll make this quick!"

He wrapped his hands back around Polnareff's small neck and tightened it, choking him. "This is what true despair feels like, Polnareff!" He laughed.

Polnareff's eyes rolled back but a sly smile appeared on his face. Unbeknownst to Alessi, a brown mushy substance touched his forearm that emerged from the water.

"Hm? W-What the hell is this thing?" Alessi wondered. He widened his eyes, "T-That shape… and that color! I-It couldn't be.." He realized what it was. "You couldn't have! N-No adult would ever be shameless enough to do that!"

Using this opportunity while he's distracted, Polnareff kicked his leg upwards, his poop landing on Alessi's nose.

"AAAGHHH!" Alessi screamed in disgust and horror. "That smell! It-s!" He took his hands off Polnareff and stepped away from the bathtub. "You're disgusting! I can't believe you actually did that!" He slapped the feces out of his face.

Polnareff emerged from the water with a gasp. Finally relieved to be able to breathe again. He glared at Alessi. "Even though I couldn't use my arms or legs, I could still let one loose!"

"H-How could you be so cruel?!" Alessi asked him. "D-Don't you have a single shred of decency?! If you were the main character, that wouldn't have crossed your mind! That's bad! Very bad!"

"Where's that lady?!" Polnareff demanded. "What did you do to her?!" He jumped out of the bathtub. "Where is she?!" He opened the bathroom door.

"Lady! Where are you?! Lady!" He called out the woman, looking for her but she wasn't responding. The woman suddenly disappeared when she was washing Polnareff's hair. Where could she have gone?

"Lady!" Polnareff shouted.

Inside the bathroom, Alessi only crossed his arms with a sinister smirk on his face. He snickered, "What do you think I did?"

Polnareff stepped back in the bathroom but Alessi raised his hand, "Woah there! We should both tread carefully, Polnareff. We could accidentally crush her." He warned.

A gasp in fear escaped from his mouth and Polnareff glanced down at the nightgown the woman was wearing. Inside the nightgown, Polnareff spotted two tiny little legs.

"I-It can't be…" Polnareff stuttered. "I-Is this… You can't be serious…" Another gasp escaped from his mouth again once he moved the gown.

It was the woman who was taking care of Polnareff and was turned into a fetus.

"L-Lady!" Polnareff cried out.

"Anyone who touches the shadow of my Stand, Divine Set, will rapidly grow younger!" Alessi explained. "Polnareff, you noticed my attack quickly, so you became only around eight-years old once you dodged out of the way. But that woman was touching my shadow for several seconds! And now she's a fetus!" He let out a hysterical laugh.

Polnareff fell to his knees in horror.

"Oh she's fine for now, but without the protection of her mother's womb, she'll definitely die!" Alessi added. "The only reason this happened is because she tried to take care of you! What a fucking dumbass!"

Polnareff screamed on the top of his lungs and pointed at Alessi. "Y-You dirtbag!"

Alessi simply laughed and his Stand, Divine Set, moved over to Polnareff. Polnareff quickly grabbed the nightgown that had the fetus and jumped but it was too late, the shadow already made contact with his feet.

"D-Damn it! I-I just…" Polnareff stumbled back.

"Hehehe, you touched it again!" Alessi said, stepping closer to Polnareff. "You'll become even younger this time! About four years old If I'm not mistaken, Polnareff!"

"D-Darn it!" Polnareff cursed under his breath and began to shrink into a four-year old.

Alessi slowly approached him with a devious smirk as he chuckled while Polnareff continued stepping back.

"I-If I don't… If I don't beat him fast enough, the lady will die at this rate! She won't be able to live more than a few minutes! I have to beat that perverted creep as soon as possible!" Polnareff then takes off running. "She treated my wounds and was nice to me… I have to… I have to do something fast!"

"COME ON! COME ON!" Alessi shouted as he caught up to Polnareff and tried to grab him but the small child only dodged his reach.

Polnareff sped up his pace and turned to a corner and stopped.

"COME ON! COME ON! COME ON!" Alessi also turned to the same corner and glanced down at Polnareff. "Why are you concerned with protecting that dying fetus?" He tried to slap him but Polnareff dodged and ran off again. "You're gonna end up like her before long, anyway!" He extended his arm out, using his Stand, Divine Set, to reach over to Polnareff and the shadow touched his small feet.

"D-Darn it! I touched the shadow again!" Polnareff cursed at himself. He turned to another corner as he shrank again.

"I-I'm shrinking!"

Also turning to the same corner as Polnareff, Alessi slid across the floor with a wide creepy grin displayed on his face.

"YAHOO! Yes! Victory is finally mine!" Alessi cheered himself. "Polnareff! You should be about three years old now! And even better, your mind should be on par with a three-year-old's, too!"

Polnareff reached the end of the hallway and quickly entered the room, shutting and locking the door behind him. Alessi grabbed the doorknob and tried to open the door but it wouldn't open. So he started banging the door, frightening little Polnareff. Alessi laughed as he banged the door and twisting the doorknob to open.

"Locking the door won't do you any good!" Alessi said and looked through the peephole, spotting the frightened child.

Polnareff had taken a few steps back and looked around to find anything that would help him escape. He found a bucket and moved it by the window. He placed the fetus by the window and crawled on top of the bucket to reach the window.

"Crud! Th-The bars are too close together!" Polnareff said and grabbed the bars. "Even as a little kid, there's no way I can make it through!" He tried to push his head between the bars to escape but he couldn't fit. He even used Chariot to try and break the bars but his Stand also regressed as a three-year-old like him.

Alessi laughed at Polnareff's attempts. "Looks like your precious Chariot has also become a three-year-old! It can't even cut through the bars and it's speed is far too slow! Now then… Here I come!" He smashed the wooden door with his ax, breaking it down easily. He poked his head through and began circling his tongue all creepily.

"HERE I AM, POLNAREFF!"

He has a clear view of the room now but something was different, Polnareff was nowhere to be seen.

"H-He's gone!" Alessi looked around and moved the door to enter the room. "What?! How is he not here? That insufferable french brat!" He walked over to the window, "Did he manage to squeeze through the bars and escape outside?!"

He slammed his ax against the steel bars in anger but he gasped in realization. "Woah, he almost got me! That sneaky little bastard is trying to trick me by making me think he escaped through the bars when in reality he's hiding somewhere inside this room. He is hoping it would work by dropping on me!" A sinister grin spread across his face. "Not bad, Polnareff. That's pretty impressive for a little shit!"

Alessi looked around the room, "Now, where could he be hiding?"

There was a fish tank on top of a dresser, a teddy bear, a clock hanging on the wall and a bucket that Polnareff had used earlier to climb up the window in the room. With such a small body Polnareff currently has, he could probably fit anywhere in the room. The enemy began to wonder where the little brat could be hiding and began to talk out loud for Polnareff to hear.

"That teddy bear looks really suspicious!" Alessi lifted his arm high up while holding the ax. "But what's what you want me to think, so I'll take a swing at the clock instead!" He swung his ax at the clock, chopping it in half.

"O-Oh! M-My bad! Well then…" He averted his gaze at the bucket. "The bucket is the obvious choice!" He chopped the bucket in half but Polnareff wasn't there either. He gritted his teeth and glared at the stuffed teddy bear. "So it is the teddy bear!" He chops it as well but still no sign of Polnareff.

Getting frustrated and desperate, he walked over to the dresser with the fish tank on top and pulled the drawer and nothing. Furious, he began destroying everything in sight with his ax.

"HE'S GONE! HE'S GONE! HE'S GONE! HE'S GONE! HE'S GONE! Impossible! How's he gone?!" Alessi stomped all over the broken wood and pieces of the teddy bear. He then scanned the room. "It can't be! The walls and ceilings are made up of stone! His Chariot can't possibly dig through them even if they were one centimeter thick! And I know damn well he couldn't have cut through the bars! I-Impossible! Where is he?! Where did he go?!"

A creepy-child-like laugh echoed in the room. "Are you really gonna lose to a kid in a battle of wits? Old Man Alessi?" The familiar voice said.

Alessi looked around the room wondering where the voice was coming from. His eyes landed on the fish tank where there was a ball floating on the water. He saw one of the fishes disappear right before his eyes.

His eyes widened in shock, "Impossible! One of the fishes just disappeared! Hm?" He glanced at the ball that was floating.

The ball slowly floated over to him and there were two holes on it like a mask. Suddenly two eyes appeared behind the holes and before Alessi could react, a small silver arm appeared behind the ball holding a sword and pierced Alessi's nose.

"GYAAAAHHHH!" Alessi screamed.

Polnareff emerged from the water and removed the ball from his face. A grin spread across his face, "I was hiding in the fish tank behind this mirror!" He explained. "Even a kid could figure out a simple trick like this! Good job falling for it, dumbass! Old Man Alessi, you perverted creep! Even as a three-year-old Chariot can still slice your face up!"

Silver Chariot charged at Alessi and stabbed all over his face with its sword. Alessi stepped back as he placed his hands on his face, screaming and wailing in pain with blood trailing down his face. He then ran out of the room.

"This is bad! Very bad! Very bad!" He said.

"H-Hey! Wait!" Polnareff shouted. He jumped off the dresser while holding the half-ripped ball with the fetus inside. "I won't stop attacking him with my Stand until it's too young to fight!"

"Very bad! Very bad!" Alessi jumped out of the window. "This is very, very bad!"

"That creep! He escaped out the window!" Polnareff said and ran after him but one of his earrings fell off without him noticing.

Alessi landed hard on the ground along with a few pieces of wood and glasses falling on top of him. He rolled onto his stomach as he groaned.

"V-Very…bad. Very bad…" He grunted.

"Hey, are you alright, sir?" A feminine voice asked him along with the sound of footsteps heading his way.

Alessi widened his eyes in horror. He recognized that voice and when he glanced at her, he knew who she was. The enemy recognized the familiar long wavy red hair with the green and while sailor school uniform.

It was Kakyoin, Noriko.

"S-Shit! It's Noriko!" Sweat began to trail down his face along with his blood. "C-Crap! She's going to kill me! It's Noriko! What the hell is she doing here?!"

Noriko stared at him with worry and was about to kneel down to help him but Alessi raised his hand, rejecting her help.

"B-But sir you're hurt!" Noriko objected.

He started panting heavily, "N-No… I-It's okay…" He grunted.

Noriko grimaced from the rejection and glanced at the window Alessi jumped from. He just fell from a two-story building and was refusing any help. Normally someone would be screaming and begging for help but that's not what he was doing, and that's what confused Noriko. It's a miracle that he's alive and not too heavily injured. She even noticed his face was covered with cuts but they weren't from the broken glass. It was from something else.

"Sir, what happened? Were you attacked by someone?" Noriko inquired.

"Calm down… Calm down…" Alessi told himself. "Times like this, the one who stays calm wins! Noriko must be looking for an adult Polnareff and doesn't know who I am at all. I'll just play dumb like I usually do and then attack!"

Alessi managed to get back up on his feet, his back turned to Noriko. He slowly turned over to the girl and clasped his hands together with a shocked expression on his face.

"Ah! The owner of this house is going to be extremely angry with me!" He ignored her question and fake tears rolled down his cheeks. "I was cleaning the window and I had suddenly slipped. What am I going to do? What am I going to do?" He took a few steps forward away from Noriko. He hoped she would buy his act. "He's going to be so angry with me!"

Noriko found this very strange, this stranger was more worried about the owner's home instead of himself. She was starting to suspect that he could possibly be-

"Hey! Hold it, you shitty old man!" Polnareff yelled at Alessi. He stood by the window all naked.

Both Noriko and Polnareff made eye contact.

Noriko's eyes widened as she recognized him when they were by the plaza earlier. "You're that little boy from earlier!" She said. "What are you doing here?!"

"It's you! Y-You're… ummm… Nori-… No… Nari-Nariko? No… Darn it!" Polnareff placed a hand on his forehead. He couldn't remember who she was, especially that he was much younger than earlier. "Just who were you again? Who are you…? Um, umm…"

Taking this opportunity while she's distracted, Alessi smirks and summons his Stand.

"You're wide open, Noriko!" Alessi shouted as his Stand, Divine Sett, went over to her.

"Watch out for his shadow!" Polnareff cried out.

Noriko quickly jumped up as the shadow touched her feet.

"YES! I touched Noriko's shadow!" Alessi cheered.

"NO!" Polnareff yelled.

"Muahahaha! Noriko! Now you too have succumbed to the power of my Divine Set!"

Noriko gasped and felt her body begin to shrink. "W-What?! H-He's a Stand-" Her words were cut short as her clothes were now too big for her and continued to shrink.

"O-Oh no! She's gonna turn into a kid too!" Polnareff stated.

"Noriko! I heard from Lord Dio that you've had your Stand since you were a child, but your Hierophant Green won't be able to overpower me at all now that it has regressed to your age! Muahaha!" Alessi said.

"No! S-She's so small now!" Polnareff cried out. "She turned into a seven-year old!"

"W-What's happening?!" Little seven-year old Noriko was frightened, her eyes turned to Alessi as he approached her. She immediately took a few steps back, "W-Who are you?! S-Stay away!" Her Hierophant Green instinctively summoned behind her, who also shrinked to a seven-year old, glared at Alessi.

"HAHAHA! Your puny Stand won't be able to do a thing to me, Noriko!" Alessi was holding the ax in his hand. "I WON! Lord Dio, I'll be the one who kills this traitorous bitch! He'll pay me a good fortune for this! You should've never betrayed him, Noriko, or else you wouldn't have been in this situation to begin with!" He raised his arm high up with a huge grin on his.

Noriko quickly turned around to run away but Alessi grabbed her by the collar.

"Nuh-uh-uh! Oh no you won't!" Alessi said.

"Let go of me! Let me go!" Noriko flailed her arms around and kicked all over the place, struggling to get away from his grip.

"Help! Someone help!" She cried out.

"Sorry but that's not happening!" He raised his arm again. "NOW DIE, NORIKO!" He swung his arm down to kill her with the ax.

Noriko screamed but a fist collided to Alessi's face, sending him flying back a few feet away, knocking him out. Little seven-year old Noriko glanced up at her savior.

It was Kujo, Jotaro.

"H-Hey! You're that guy!" Polnareff called him out.

Jotaro glanced at the window, seeing three-year old Polnareff.

"You're-! You're … Jo-… No, Jackie? No…" Since he was much younger than earlier, it was much harder to remember his name. He gasped when he remembered about the woman who turned into a fetus. He ran back inside to check up on her.

"T-Thank you, mister." Noriko stuttered, shyly looking away.

Jotaro averted his attention Noriko and stared at her. He couldn't believe it. The little girl he was staring at is his girlfriend.

He kneeled down to her height, "You're welcome." He said. "Are you hurt?"

Noriko nodded.

"Good."

Noriko stared at him for a moment, "You… You look familiar…" Just like what happened to Polnareff, Noriko's memories also regressed to her age.

"Jo…?"

Jotaro raised his brows.

"No… Joey? No…" Noriko knitted her brows together. She couldn't remember his name but she could've sworn she knew him before and it bothered her that she didn't.

Then she felt a hand on top of her head.

"It's okay. Just know I'll never let anyone or anything harm you. You'll never be alone." Jotaro gave her a warm smile.

Noriko widened her eyes, "You.. You promise?"

"I promise." Jotaro nodded.

Alessi reopened his eyes as he mumbled. He was swollen on the side of his face and doesn't know what happened. All he remembered was that he was about to kill Noriko but something or someone punched him hard in the face that knocked him out. He heard multiple footsteps approaching him and was met with three pissed off Crusaders glaring down at him.

Polnareff leaned over with a sly smirk on his face and snickered, "Not good enough! We need to make sure he's finished!"

"Fine by me, and I'll make sure he doesn't try to run away." Noriko stated in a firm tone.

Hierophant Green's appendages wrapped around Alessi, pinning him down on the ground. Both Silver Chariot and Star Platinum manifested behind their users and leaned over to Alessi's face, giving him a mischievous grin.

Alessi let out a yelp before Silver Chariot and Star Platinum pummeled him as the Stands cried out their Ora-Ora's. The old creep was sent flying high up in the sky.

The Stand User of Divine Set, God of Destruction and Storms, aged thirty-eight and single, has been blown away into distance. He retires.

Inside the house, the woman woke up naked and covered with a towel. She sat up and looked around, holding the towel to her chest to cover her breast. She asked herself if it was a dream until she spotted an earring on the ground and she knew it wasn't hers.

It belonged to that little boy.

She picked up the earring and searched all over the house for him. She remembered. She remembered that little boy was trying to protect her from an adult. She found some of her furniture destroyed and the doors cut open. The little boy was doing everything in his power to make sure she was safe.

"Where are you my little knight? Where did you go?!" She called out for him but received no answer.

Outside the house, Polnareff glanced at the building. "What a nice and wonderful woman. She was so genuinely kind. But that was close… I managed to turn back to normal but I wonder if she's okay."

Someone running and gasping grabbed his attention. It was the woman. She had put her clothes back on and she appeared concerned. A smile appeared on the Frenchman's face with relief. He was glad that she was perfectly fine.

The woman was rushing out of her home but she suddenly stopped.

She turned to look at the Crusaders, "Excuse me, but have you three happen to see a little boy leave my house?" She approached them but her eyes landed on Polnareff. "He has silver hair, just like you."

A gasp escaped from Polnareff's mouth. Both Noriko and Jotaro stood there, not uttering a word as they watched.

Polnareff didn't answer and the woman felt like she had seen him before.

"Pardon me for asking, but have we met before?" The woman gasped under her breath, could the person she's talking is that little boy-

"N-No…" Polnareff immediately turned around. "I didn't see any kid around here." He lied. He didn't wanna look at her. "L-Let's go, Jotaro, Noriko." He felt bad for lying to her but he didn't want her to get involved and it was best for her to never know the truth.

Both teens nod and follow behind him.

"Come on you two, hurry!" Polnareff said in a harsh whisper.

"W-Wait! Could you be… that earring…"

Polnareff halted and looked over his shoulder, "We've never met before. There's no way we could have. The three of us are travelers. This is the first time we've been here and we already have to get to the next town."

And with that, the three Crusaders walked away, leaving the woman.

"So it must've been a dream after all…" She muttered and clutched the earring to her chest.

As soon as they were far enough, Polnareff glanced at the teens.

"Don't you both dare say a word about this. Not one word!" Polnareff said with his cheeks blushed.

Jotaro simply placed a hand on the Frenchman's shoulder with a smile on his face.

The moment was interrupted when a bark from a certain Boston Terrier caught their attention.

"Iggy!" Noriko said with a smile.

The Boston Terrier happily jumped into the red-haired teen's arm and shot a mischievous grin to Jotaro as he snuggled against her chest.

Jotaro let out a tch under his breath, looking away and holstered his hands in his pockets.

"Iggy, where have you been you damn mutt?" Polnareff asked.

"Oh! Jotaro, Noriko, Polnareff! That's where guys are!" Joseph also arrived at the scene. "Where the hell have you three been?!" He demanded.

"Mr. Joestar! Mr. Avdol!" Noriko said as she and the others walked over to them.

"I told you guys to not wander on your own!" Joseph scolded, pointing a finger at them.

"Look who's talking! You're the ones who disappeared!" Polnareff retorted.

"I expect you to do something like this but Noriko, not you too! Has my grandson influenced you to be rebellious like him?!"

"N-No, but Mr. Joestar we can explain-!"

"Now, now." Avdol intervened, trying to calm everyone down, "Let's go get something to eat. We're all hungry, are we not?"

The Crusaders went to a nearby restaurant by the hotel. They all enjoyed their meals and Joseph sighed in relief. A waiter came by and picked up their finished plates.

"Finally, we can relax a little." Joseph said and took a sip of his water.

"What should've been our breakfast became our lunch." Avdol said as he crossed his arms.

"We're almost to Cairo." Joseph stated. "We've got to figure out where Dio is hiding."

Avdol pulled out a polaroid camera from his pocket and handed it to the elder Joestar. Joseph placed the camera on the table.

"Will anything show up, Mr. Joestar?" Noriko asked.

"I'm not sure, but we've gotten close. So it should be more accurate. All right, here we go!" Joseph karate chops the polaroid camera with his hamon and Hermit Purple.

The customers turned their heads at the Crusaders table, wondering what was going on. Even a waiter showed up.

"Is something the matter?" He asked.

"Nothing. Just go back over there." Avdol shooed him away.

"Y-Yes sir." The waiter stammered and walked away.

Joseph grabbed the photo that came out of the camera and waited for it to appear. They all tensed up as they waited. After waiting for a moment for the picture to show up, Joseph slammed the photo on the table.

"There!" Joseph stated as he stood up from his chair. "This is the place we have to find!"

The photo revealed a mansion with an interesting architecture and very neat.

"Let's get going." Joseph said.

The group nodded and Joseph paid for their meals. They left the restaurant and were ready to continue their next and final stop, Cairo, Egypt.

To Be Continued….

We got a cute little child Noriko instead of little Jotaro! What did you guys think? (๑˘︶˘๑)
