PhantomKnightPercival: Sometimes, you just need a good smacking.
CoolK: He won't try to take OFA, but he will definitely be more wary of Izuku than he was in the Canon story.
DeathlyJazzHands55: Susan doesn't stand a chance, and she knows it. She will be taking the tactical approach.
TheSBRdude: Izuku is somewhat at risk, but there is someone who could have it worse. Also, Twice isn't a villain anymore.
Guest: :)
Kosaku Valentine: Thank you! If you have any ideas, feel free to send them over!
"Let's do this! We're gonna do it!" Mirio shouted, frantically waving his arms around.
Sir Nighteye had used foresight on Susan, who was unaware of who he was. He had obtained the necessary information from her future, and found where Eri was. Now they were all getting ready for the upcoming battle.
"Ready Johnny?" Giorno asked, giving his nephew an affectionate pat on the shoulder. Johnny looked up and nodded. "Let's do this."
"That's the spirit, oh...and one more thing..."
"Wha-"
*SMACK!*
"I should have seen that coming."
Giorno chuckled. "I wasn't there, so I had to make up for it. I know you'll do your best, you're a Joestar after all. Good luck out there."
"You too."
"I don't need luck...but I'll take what I can get." Giorno said as he moved over to talk to Mista.
"He's bloody invincible...who needs luck when you have a stand like GER?" Diego said, cleaning his gun with a tattered looking cloth. "If anyone needs luck, it's our inside man."
"Who is this guy anyway? I don't want to accidentally cheese him." Gyro said, taking his hero costume out of his duffel bag.
Kyoka was twirling her jacks, clearly nervous about the upcoming raid. Uraraka patted her friend on the back. "Don't worry, we've got this!"
"I don't know...it just...the plan seems too perfect."
"Even if something goes wrong, Mr. Giovanna is here, isn't his stand invincible? *ribbit*" Tsuyu asked.
"He can't be everywhere at once, if he isn't around any of us, it's likely that we will have to rely on ourselves." Johnny said, slipping on his hat.
"Come on man, be optimistic!" Kirishima said, punching Johnny in the shoulder.
"I believe we have the advantage...but we should also accept the reality of the situation." Johnny said. "Chisaki and his goons are dangerous...some of us may not make it out of this alive."
"You sound like some grizzled war veteran JoJo." Uraraka said, shuddering. "It's a little creepy."
"Let's just say I know what it's like to stare death in the face. I can recognize it when I see it." Johnny replied. "And right now I'm seeing it everywhere."
As the heroes and police gathered across from the Yakuza headquarters, the SBR gang stood together. A silent agreement was made between them:
If it comes down to it...kill them all.
Diego's eyes drifted towards a window, and a black and white mask briefly peaked out, followed by a thumbs up. "Our man is in position."
Hot Pants nodded, and she slowly reached behind her back, where a sniper rifle was concealed. While her stand could be deadly, she wasn't exactly the best suited for combat, hence, the gun.
"I don't understand why we're working with these people." Rock Lock muttered. "They're criminals like the Yakuza..."
"Passione has done more good for the world than you have, Rock Lock." Giorno said as he walked past the embittered hero. "So I suggest you keep your mouth shut."
"Mr. Joestar is putting on lipstick." Tsuyu stated.
"MIND YOUR BUSINESS KERMIT!" Joseph yelled.
Johnny blinked. "Don't tell me..."
Gyro grinned. "I'm sure there is a completely rational explanation for that Tsu."
"You don't really believe that."
"No of course not. But I can try."
Johnny sighed and clenched his fists. This was it, the moment he had been waiting for. He didn't give a damn about the rules, or what Aizawa said, if he saw Eri, he was taking her.
"JoJo?"
Johnny glanced at Kyoka. "What?"
"What you mentioned earlier...about the whole dying thing? Is...does it hurt? I know you've kind of died before, so I thought I would...you know..."
"No, it doesn't. Hopefully...that's something you'll never have to experience for yourself..." Johnny said. "I got lucky that Civil War could bring people back..."
Kyoka looked down, tapping her jacks together. She seemed to be deep in thought.
Johnny reached down and grabbed her hand, startling her. "I get it...I'm scared too. But if the Steel Ball Run taught me one thing...it's that you always have a fighting chance with your friends in your corner. So let's do this, no moping, no hesitation."
Kyoka looked into his eyes, a ghost of a smile came across her face. "You're right...I'm getting real tired of hesitating..."
The two stayed like that for a while, just gazing into each other's eyes, and it almost looked like Johnny was about to step forward-
"YOO HOO! ANY OF YOU HANDSOME GANGSTERS WANT SOME TEQUILA? I'VE GOT A WHOLE BOTTLE JUST WAITING FOR YOU!" Joseph said, standing in front of the door.
Johnny begrudgingly turned his head to find his great-grandfather in a dress. The old man had sparkling ribbons in his hair, and perfectly applied makeup across his face. His hairy old man legs were out for everyone to see. He was even wearing high heels.
"And to think, that thing had a hand in raising me..."
Gyro was rolling around on the ground, laughing his ass off, while Diego was paralyzed in fear.
"That is an image I could've gone my entire life without." Hot Pants muttered.
The door opened to reveal a large man wearing a bird-esque mask.
"Why hello there, big boy! Would you like some-"
The large man's fists went straight for Joseph's head, and the dolled up Joestar barely had time to duck. "SHIT!"
Joseph rolled out of the way as the muscle-bound villain gave chase. "HELP MEEEE! OH MY GOOOOOOD!"
Ryuku quickly stepped in and blocked his punch with her dragon form. "I've got you, Mr. Joestar! We musn't let our forces get separated, everyone attack! The Ryuku agency will handle him!"
Everyone charged towards the building, several thugs tried to block the heroes path, but they soon found themselves in the warpath of an angry dinosaur.
"USHAAAAAAAA!" Diego screamed as he bore down on the thugs, tossing them aside like ragdolls. A loud BANG! was heard as a thug was blasted aside by Hot Pants, who was providing her boyfriend with cover.
Izuku and Mirio took the lead, when a loud pounding sound was heard. Johnny came crashing through with Tusk.
"ORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORA!"
"How the hell?"
Rock Lock turned back to see Hot Pants riding a giant Utahraptor, while several baby raptors came from all directions. "I'M RIDING A DINOSAUR BITCHES, NONE OF YOU CAN COMPETE!"
Diego's teeth snapped as Johnny and Gyro stood by the other two's side. "Well, it appears Hot Pants is riding Diego." Johnny said.
"You say that like it isn't a common occurrence." Gyro quipped.
"Shut up" Hot Pants said as she gunned down more Yakuza. Uraraka looked at her in shock. "Don't tell me you're actually..."
"Don't worry kid, they're rubber bullets."
For now.
Uraraka ran to support her team as Joseph landed beside the others, now dressed in his normal attire. "Let's kick some Yakuza ass, just like the old days!"
Hot Pants disembarked as Diego got up, twirling his pistol and pointing it at the enemy. "Oh yes, let's." He said with a wicked sharp-toothed grin, as his tail wagged behind him.
Steel balls, nail bullets, purple vines, and flesh spray flew everywhere as the group of five fought off the oncoming hoard of baddies. One by one, the enemy fell under the combined might of the five heroes.
Soon enough, Johnny, Gyro, Joseph, Diego, and Hot Pants were standing in the middle of a pile of unconscious villains. Joseph sighed and tipped his hat. "Well that was fun...you two better catch up with the others, I'll hold off any leftovers."
Diego nodded. "Go, we have to meet up with our guy."
Johnny and Gyro bolted off, with the Italian giving the other three a thumbs up as they departed.
The duo stopped as they entered the building. There was definitely a final boss feel to the situation. They looked at each other, nodded, and made their way through the doorway that Nighteye had already opened.
Suddenly, the hallway began to distort and twist as the duo struggled to regain their footing. "Either I'm high, or the hallway is getting all goopy!" Gyro said.
"Could be both! Hold on!"
Suddenly, a hand grabbed the both of them and yanked them aside. Kyoka had just pulled them to safety as the hallway closed in on itself. "You two just keep getting in weird situations, don't you?"
"It's a talent."
"It's a curse."
"You bet it is." Josuke came walking up to them. "Any sign of the others?"
"No...looks like we're trapped in here..." Gyro said, pointing towards the blocked door. "Whatever was happening in the hallway, it sealed us off."
"Then the only way we can go is forward..." Josuke said, pointing towards the room ahead.
When they made their way inside, the first thing Johnny noticed was the giant crack in the floor. "It looks like this goes all the way down to the sewers..." He observed.
"They have really been slacking on the plumbing." Gyro noted.
BANG!
Kyoka bristled at the loud noise, but nothing could have prepared her to see her mentor fall back into the hole. "MR. JOSUKE!"
"Relax, I didn't hit him anywhere fatal." A familiar voice said. A stand was hovering on the other side of the hole that Josuke just fell into, holding a small firearm. It's cold dead eyes bore into the three as it licked it's yellow fangs, before it retreated into it's user:
Susan Cujoh.
"YOU." Kyoka snarled. "It's always YOU."
Susan scratched her cheek underneath the mask. "Surprised to see my Blood on the Dance Floor Johnny? Santana was kind enough to stab me in the back while I wasn't looking, and now I have a stand. I bet that threw a wrench into your plans, didn't it?"
"Plans?! I don't have any fucking plans, you just shot my uncle!"
"I said he'll live." Susan sounded annoyed. "Not that you care anyway, you never really did care about family. Besides..." Susan clicked the safety on the gun. "I'm only out to kill one Joestar today."
Johnny raised an eyebrow. "I doubt your stand is strong enough to compete with mine, Susan."
"Oh I know. Act 4, isn't it? I never heard of a Stand evolving that many times...it's undoubtedly much more powerful than I could ever hope to be. However...I think you'll find that I have the advantage..." Susan pulled out her phone and held it into the air.
"A phone...I'm petrified."
"On this phone, I have a message typed out...a certain message about a certain quirk...called One for All."
Johnny's blood ran cold, he could see both Gyro and Kyoka looked equally as horrified. The secret of One For All was now in the hands of the woman who ran a smear campaign against the Joestar family.
"It sure would be a shame...if the world were to find out. Poor Midoriya...imagine...the press hunting him down...All Might's enemies...a real shame. And all that is just a click away... "
"What do you want?" Gyro asked, glaring daggers at Susan.
"I told you what I want. I want YOU Johnny. Give yourself up, and your childhood friend will be spared, it's that simple."
"Why do you suddenly want to kill me so bad?"
"Because fate said you would be evil, that you would kill without remorse, and that you would drive everyone I have ever loved against me."
"You did that yourself!" Kyoka said.
"SHUT UP! I'm not done talking yet! I'm sick of listening, sick of waiting for my inevitable doom at your hands...I'm taking the reigns, I'm getting my family back! And the only way I can see that happening, is if I get rid of you!"
"I knew you were delusional...but this is a whole new level of insanity!" Johnny said. "How would killing me fix things for you? You think everything is just going to magically go back to the way it was?"
"You don't get to criticize me, murderer. You know, some small part of me still hopes that I could've been a mother to you, because...I still love you Johnny, and it hurts that I have to do this. But sacrifices need to be made...so get over here, and don't you dare activate your stand, otherwise the world will know."
"It would be pretty hard to do that...without this." Gyro held up Susan's phone, grinning. Susan paled. "H-how did y-you...?"
"He gave it to me." Gyro pointed across the room, where Funny Valentine was leaning against the wall.
"The missing President?!" Susan exclaimed. "How did you take it from me without me noticing?!"
"A magician never reveals his secrets, Susan Cummings..." Valentine said.
"HOW DO YOU KNOW MY MAIDEN NAME?!"
"*snort* Cummings." Gyro said, earning an elbow from Johnny.
"I may not see eye to eye with Kujo, or Zeppeli, but we do have one thing in common: we find you despicable." Valentine said, glaring at her. "If the world discovered the secret of One For All, there would be unbridled chaos...and you were about to reveal it over some petty grudge."
Johnny took the phone from Gyro and gave it to Tusk, and the stand began slowly crushing it right before Susan's eyes. "Who has the advantage now, Mommy?"
Susan bolted, showing her true nature as a coward. "THIS ISN'T OVER!" Kyoka lept over the crevice. "Come on! We can't let her get away!"
"Wait! We have to make sure Uncle Josuke is okay first!" Johnny said. "And remember, she may be a bigger threat than we thought...but Eri is our top priority."
"Right..." Kyoka said. "Down the hole we go."
As the three made their way down the hole in which Josuke fell into, Johnny's eyes briefly met Valentine's. The two old enemies looked at each other, before Johnny finally spoke up.
"Thank you."
Johnny dropped down the hole as Valentine raised an eyebrow.
"You're welcome."
Joseph was sprinting through the halls, trying to catch up with Nighteye, when his son suddenly fell through the ceiling.
"Josuke?!"
"*cough* Hey Dad..."
"What the hell happened?!"
Josuke weakly held up a bullet. "Jotaro's stupid ex-wife tried to shoot me...but Crazy Diamond was just too fast...I lost my balance though...the fucking fall."
"Can you stand?!"
"I...I think I broke something, I can't feel my leg."
Joseph helped his wounded son up and blinked back tears. "I'm going to get you to the ambulance, okay?"
"I can still fight..."
"No, I'm putting my foot down. I'm not letting you get more hurt than you already are."
"Heh...sure...if you insist."
Joseph pulled his hat over his eyes, a scowl plastered on his face. Susan...
You've hurt my family enough.
Diego whirled around the corner, only to come face-to-face with Izuku Midoriya.
"AH!"
They both took a step back, before Diego recognized him. "You're one of Johnny's friends, right?"
"Yeah, you're Diego Brando...he talks about you a lot."
Aizawa narrowed his eyes. "You were in the Steel Ball Run, right? Jotaro said it got pretty violent."
"It did, we barely survived. I...seem to have lost Hot Pants..." Diego looked around, concerned. "I'm sure she can handle herself, but I can't help but feel concerned..."
The walls suddenly closed around the three, blocking off Rock Lock. Next thing they knew, there were two of him, one on the ground, bleeding out, and the other with a panicked expression.
"This fake came and tried to attack me!"
Aizawa bent over to examine the body, but Diego was having none of it. He knew what this was.
"Midoriya...are you okay?"
"DON'T LET HER GET CLOSE TO YOU!" Diego snarled as Aizawa activated his quirk, revealing Himiko Toga as she lept at Izuku with a knife-
Only to be body checked by Diego.
The fight between Twice's two best friends had begun.
Twice looked back as Kendo Rappa was blown back by Sir Nighteye's attack.
"Wow! That was cool! That could happen to us." Twice said. Nighteye slowly advanced as the clone of Rappa melted away. "Wait! It isn't what you think! I'm not with the-"
Nighteye attacked, tearing away part of Twice's mask, as the former villain flipped away. "Stop! Listen!" Twice put his hands out in front of him, but Nighteye put a hand up in response.
"No need, I touched you. You're Passione's mole, aren't you?"
"Why did you say it out loud?! Now they know!" Twice said, exasperated. Nighteye fixed his glasses. "They would've found out regardless...I read your future. Diego Brando and Himiko Toga are squaring off down the hallway...and you're the only one who can stop the fight."
Twice's revealed blue eye widened as he got what Nighteye was saying. "I have to choose between them..."
Without hesitation, Twice sprinted down the hallway, arguing with himself.
"We don't want to hurt people anymore! Diego is the best choice!"
"But Toga is our friend too! Our first friend...what would she say when she finds out?"
"But Diego believes I can be a better person!"
"But Toga believed in me first."
"She believed in the villain! I'm not a VILLAIN ANYMORE!"
"Twice!"
Twice turned to see Nighteye staring at him from beneath his glasses.
"You'll do the right thing, I've seen it."
Twice nodded. "The right thing..."
You know what...I think I've finally made up my mind.
If anyone has ideas for the remainder of the raid, let me know! While I have it planned out already, I would love to see what you guys would think should happen.
I'll give you guys a few hints:
1. Susan isn't done yet.
2. Kyoka is going to get a VERY big moment.
3. There are now TWO confirmed villain deaths.
