CoolK: An interesting idea, but stands are different from quirks. The bullet wouldn't work on Johnny. The broken D4C however...
"GET LOST DINO BOY! I WANT TO HAVE FUN WITH MY IZUKU!" Toga exclaimed as she swung her knife dangerously close to Diego's face.
"Hell no, any friend of Johnny's is a friend of mine, I won't let you hurt him!" Diego replied, swinging his tail underneath Toga's legs, causing the knife-wielding maniac to topple over. Toga quickly rolled backwards as Diego's fist pounded into the ground.
Toga lept forward, plunging her knife downwards, but Diego pulled a knife of his own and parried it aside. "A friend of mine thinks you can be redeemed, all evidence to the contrary."
"Redeemed? You heroes are the real villains, throwing people like me aside, just because our quirks make us different!" Toga said, as she and Diego locked blades.
"I'm a firm believer in second chances, but I would have NEVER crossed the lines that you have!" Diego kicked out, catching Toga in the side. "Run Midoriya, save Eri! I'll handle knock-off Harley Quinn here!"
"But-"
"He's right Midoriya." Aizawa stated. "Now that the League is involved, things just got much more dangerous."
Izuku reluctantly continued forwards, while Aizawa gave Diego a respectful nod.
"Great! Now I missed my chance!" Toga pouted. "I'm gonna kill you for that."
"Try it bitch!" Diego said with a vicious smile. "You're not the only one with a bloodthirsty side!"
They charged each other, and Diego ducked under a knife swing and punched Toga directly in her ribs, where a loud SNAP was heard. He then grabbed her by the pigtails and began swinging her around as if she were Bowser in Super Mario 64.
He threw her straight into a wall, but her feet landed first, and Toga kicked out towards Diego, stabbing into his shoulder. Diego snarled, both in pain and in rage, and pushed her away, before spinning in midair and clubbing her over the head with his dinosaur tail.
Toga fell to the ground, the trauma from the blow to the head was causing everything to become fuzzy, and Diego picked her up by the armpits. "I'm giving you a chance, because my friend believes in you...don't let his faith be in vain."
"Who is this friend? How do I know them?" Toga said, still dazed.
"It's me, Himiko."
Both Diego and Toga turned to see Twice slowly approaching them. "I'm his friend...and yours."
"You're...you're with HIM?!" Toga said, her face turning to one of hurt and betrayal.
"Himiko listen...we've both had terrible stuff happen to us, stuff that turned us into outcasts. We both believed that society would never accept us, and that being a villain was the only option. But what if we were wrong? What if, in our quest for acceptance, we looked in the wrong places? Diego accepts me for who I am, and I don't even have to hurt innocent people...we don't have to be the bad guys Himiko...please...stop this"
"I...I can't believe it..." Toga said as tears formed in the corners of her eyes. "They got you..."
"What?"
"They've killed Twice...you're not him anymore...YOU BASTARDS RUINED HIM!" Toga screamed, her earlier vertigo dissipating in an instant. She stabbed towards Diego's eye, but Twice's hand intervened, and the knife went right through it.
Twice melted, and Diego understood. That wasn't the real one...he's waiting for a sneak attack!
Diego tossed Toga away, and the real Twice came around the corner with a baseball bat, bashing Toga's knife hand. Toga screamed as she clutched at her broken wrist.
"I'm sorry Himiko...but Diego showed me a better way. If you won't quit hurting people...then we are now enemies." Twice said, a tear going down his cheek. "I'll miss all the fun times we had...with Compress and big sis Magne...but it's over."
"I HATE YOU!" Toga screamed as she switched the knife to her good hand and stabbed towards her former friend. However, Diego's hand soon filled her vision...
Diego's claws raked right across her face, tearing out one of her eyes, and leaving three diagonal slits across her features. Toga screamed and bolted, while Diego shook her disembodied eye off of his hand. "That...was not supposed to happen..." He said in disgust.
"I really thought she could change..." Twice said, falling to his knees. "I thought I could get through to her..."
Diego knelt down and put a hand on his friend's shoulder. "That's the difference between people like us, and real villains. We wanted to change...she didn't. What you just did...that was incredibly brave...it's hard enough to stand up to your enemies, but your friends? That took guts."
Twice wrapped Diego in a hug and began sobbing, which Diego returned without hesitation. "That took guts..."
Himiko Toga ran through the hallways, betrayal and rage eating away at her heart. She lost an eye...because of Diego Brando.
But more importantly, she lost a friend.
Twice was gone, lost to the heroes for good, blinded by the false promise of redemption. I swear...next time I see you, blonde Barney...YOU'RE DEAD! I'll drink you dry!
Then she got an idea.
"Too bad these stupid Yakuza only get in the way!" She shouted. "Maybe then their stupid boss wouldn't be in a coma right now, maybe he wouldn't be so useless!"
Toga smiled as the walls began to close in once more. She had successfully pissed off the guy who had been monitoring them from inside the walls.
Heroes such as Brando, Twice, Kujo, Zeppeli, Jiro, Pants, Midoriya, and Aizawa all went tumbling down underground with her. Chew on that heroes.
Now to make my escape.
She watched as Izuku located the guy and took delight in watching her crush take him down.
"Even with one eye, I can see that Izuku is so hot."
Johnny got up and brushed himself off. He could hear commotion in the distance, it sounded like Mirio screaming, and people getting thrashed. "Is everyone okay?"
"Fine." Kyoka got up and stumbled backwards, only for Johnny to catch her. Their eyes met for a brief moment before Kyoka shot right back up. "ABSOLUTELY FINE!"
Gyro groaned. "I almost lost my breakfast...nope, here it comes."
Johnny turned his attention to Diego, and surprisingly Twice. "This is your inside man?"
"Not anymore, his cover has been blown." Diego said, patting his friend on the back. "But he's one brave bastard."
Hot Pants ran over. "Is everyone okay? I can heal people!"
"Now that you mention it, I've been stabbed. Would you be a dear and patch it up for me?" Diego asked, batting his eyelashes.
"Walk it off." Hot Pants said, but she leaned over to heal his wound anyway.
BANG!
Kyoka's earphone jacks picked up the sound of a faint gunshot, followed by a cry that was unmistakably Mirio Togata. "I think Togata was just shot!"
"Huh?!" Gyro said. "But the bullet should've gone right through him...I mean, he kinda kicked our asses with that quirk of his... "
"Unless he took it for somebody..." Johnny said, his eyes turning dark. "And I think I might have a good feeling who..."
Meanwhile, Rock Lock was giving some sort of motivational speech, and soon everyone started moving again. "Come on guys! We're close to Eri, I can tell!" Izuku cried, motioning for his friends to follow.
As all of the heroes departed, they failed to notice a certain piranha-like stand watching them from the shadows. Blood on the Dance Floor narrowed it's dead eyes in anticipation.
You thought that was my only plan, didn't you Johnny? Not at all, that was a bluff, a facade to divert your attention away from me, thinking I am defeated.
You'll deal with Chisaki...or one of your friends, and then Eri will be mine! With her, I'll start over...I'll rebuild my family from the ground up, once you're out of the way...
Tusk Act 4 is far too powerful to confront directly...but that's okay. It can't be in two places at once, can it?
Kai Chisaki was sent flying after Izuku decked him in the face. Never before had Johnny seen his friend so enraged.
Not that he was feeling any different.
A bloody Mirio Togata stood with Eri by his side, and he looked to be on the verge of tears. Both Nighteye and Johnny rushed over.
Eri was trembling.
Johnny slowly got down on his knees and peered into her eyes. Immediately, there was a connection as Eri gasped.
"Your eyes...they look scared..."
"They are..."
"You're like me..."
Both Mirio and Nighteye turned in shock. "What? What does she mean by that JoJo?"
"We both came from the same place...Susan Cujoh is my mother after all..."
Eri's eyes widened. "Susan's...your mom?"
Johnny nodded. "She wasn't very nice to me, growing up. She used to make me feel really bad about myself, and sometimes she still does."
"Does...does it ever go away?"
"No." Johnny said as he pulled Eri into a hug. "But it does hurt less, after a while...you just need to find the right people...and I'm willing to be that person for you Eri, if you let me."
Next thing he knew, his shoulder was soaking wet, as the little girl sobbed into his shirt.
"Guys, OVERHAUL'S GETTING UP!" Kyoka screamed.
Before anyone could do anything, Overhaul placed his hand on the ground, causing a massive wave of rocky spikes to go everywhere. Johnny quickly threw Eri into the air and punched the ground with Tusk, disabling the attack and protecting himself.
Kyoka had done something similar with her Heartbeat Fuzz, and she saved Gyro from being skewered, much to the Italian's gratitude.
Next thing they knew, Chisaki was a four-armed monstrosity.
"Did he just absorb that guy?!" Gyro said.
"It appears our Yakuza friend has gotten a second wind." Diego said. "Let's make him regret it!"
"We would have to get to him first." Hot Pants replied. "He's all the way up there...with that Midoriya kid."
Kyoka's eyes widened. "You...you don't think she told him, do you?"
"Susan's a fucking loud mouth, it's a miracle the whole world doesn't know." Johnny responded. "Yeah...I think he knows..."
"Izuku Midoriya, you really want to save Eri, don't you?" Chisaki said, while Izuku was trapped between two spikes.
"I will! And you'll be going to jail!" Izuku shouted as he struggled to free himself.
"If you idiots hadn't gotten involved, Lemillion would still have his quirk, and there would've been no violence whatsoever." Chisaki replied. "It's your fault he has lost it forever!"
"Lost...Forever?!" Izuku said in disbelief.
"Yes! Well, I suppose you're actually pretty lucky that he got to me first...considering I could've erased One For All..." Both Izuku and Nighteye looked horrified by the revelation.
Somehow...Chisaki knows about One For All... Nighteye thought to himself. He's too dangerous!
Next thing they knew, Nighteye was the one fighting Chisaki, with a feriocity that he had never demonstrated before. I can't let All Might's secret get out! The whole world is at stake! Kai Chisaki, you can't leave here alive!
Meanwhile, Izuku had managed to free himself, and was now trying to help Mirio get Eri to safety. They were almost through the exit into the hallway, when a loud slicing sound was heard.
Overhaul had impaled Nighteye with a spike.
"SIR!" Mirio bellowed out, horrified.
Without a moment's hesitation, Izuku barreled towards Chisaki and engaged the villain head on. Izuku launched himself up in the air and launched himself at the crime boss with a devastating axe kick.
"MANCHESTER SMASH!"
Only to completely miss.
"Too slow, too predictable." Chisaki taunted. "Seriously, YOU'RE All Might's successor? You can't even hold a candle to him!"
Izuku winced, but didn't let up on his attacks, kicking out towards Chisaki's head once again. The crime boss once again dodged. "This is pointless!"
Spikes flew towards Izuku, and soon blood flew everywhere.
"Johnny, wait!" Kyoka shouted as she struggled to keep up with her friend.
"Something just went wrong, I can feel it!" Johnny said. "I'm not going to sit on the sidelines! Not with Eri counting on me! I'll-"
Johnny suddenly stopped.
"What is it?" Kyoka said. "Did you finally decide to listen to me for on-"
Then she saw it: Sir Nighteye on a stick.
And Izuku with spikes stabbed through his legs.
While Kyoka was no stranger to being in mortal danger...she had never seen someone get hurt like this before. Nighteye was...
"Oh...oh my God." Kyoka turned away, refusing to look at the horrifying scene in front of her. "I think I'm gonna be sick..."
"Death is no stranger to me..." Johnny muttered as he slowly sank into a wormhole. "But it's new to you...I'm sorry I dragged you into this. I'm going down there...wait here."
"No, I'm not letting you go down there alone."
"YOU DON'T NEED TO SEE THAT!" Johnny barked, startling her. "THAT STUFF CHANGES PEOPLE KYOKA! I...I don't want you to go through it like I did. Please, stay here."
"I said no, didn't you hear me? I'm a hero too, in case you didn't notice."
"This isn't the time to be stubborn."
"Too bad. Are we saving Midoriya, or what?"
Johnny looked down. "Don't say I didn't warn you..." He retreated into a wormhole and zipped towards the battle, with Kyoka following close behind.
Izuku ripped a spike out of his leg. "I won't let anyone die!" He proclaimed, crushing it in his fist. "I'll save you Eri!"
"You're nothing but a little boy, trying to be Superman." Chisaki said, glaring at him. "You got LUCKY, when All Might decided to pick you. You've never truly been in a do or die situation, where the stakes are high."
Izuku smiled. "Muscular would disagree...but even if that was the case, he definitely has!" Izuku pointed between Chisaki's legs, and the crime boss looked down to see a small black hole just between his feet.
"What in the-?"
Tusk Act 4 proceeded to punch Chisaki in the groin, sending the crime boss all the way up to the ceiling. "Now you'll NEVER have a daughter, asshole!" Johnny said, emerging from his wormhole.
Overhaul grabbed his junk and repaired it. "THAT HURT!"
Suddenly, massive sound wave assaulted Chisaki's ears, and he bent over in pain. Kyoka stood on a mound of dirt, putting every decibel she had in her body into her hand speakers. "Then wait till you get a load of me!"
A steel ball smashed into Chisaki's side while he was stunned. "I-I can't move!"
"I hit you in a pretty vital pressure point." Gyro said, emerging from the shadows. "The four of us will definitely take you down!"
Johnny and Izuku both stood on separate sides of the crime boss. "Hurry! Kick his ass!" Kyoka shouted. "My body can't handle too much more of this!" Sure enough, the vibrations from her speakers were starting to spread towards her body, she was visibly shaking.
Johnny and Izuku both charged at him, going for a double knockout blow, when a knife flew out of nowhere, knocking the steel ball away. Himiko Toga giggled. "That was because Mr. Santana likes you so much!"
Overhaul screamed and immediately targeted Kyoka, as her sound waves caused him the most pain. She quickly punched the ground, stopping the spikes from reaching her.
Just then, Ryuku and the others crashed into the building, with Joseph landing beside Johnny and hurling Wrecking Ball at the crime boss, and the satellites detached from the steel ball, blinding Chisaki's left side.
"Nighteye!"
The impaled man was now on the floor, lying motionless.
Chisaki used the brief moment of confusion to escape, creating a platform for himself and knocking Eri in the air with him.
"NO!" Johnny screamed. "I WON'T LET YOU TOUCH HER, EVER AGAIN!"
He summoned his stand, integrated it with his legs, and prepared to jump, only for Gyro to leap onto his back. "Take me with you, idiot!"
"FINE!"
Johnny shot up to the surface, with Izuku following close behind, while Kyoka looked on. Be careful you three...
She turned her attention to Nighteye, who was still lying on the ground, and ran over, pulling him up. His eyes opened and met hers. "Earphone Jack...right?" He choked out.
Kyoka nodded. When she woke up today, she never thought she would have to comfort a dying man...but she knew that she couldn't just leave him behind. Someone had to be with him when it happened.
Eri finally used her quirk, separating Chisaki from his other set of arms, and proceeded to jump, reaching out for the approaching heroes, clutching Mirio's cape.
Izuku caught her, gingerly, and put a hand on her head. "I've got you...I'll never let you go again..."
Chisaki turned around, enraged. "GIVE HER BACK!" He cried as he launched spikes in their direction. Izuku bobbed and weaved, until Tusk appeared in front of him, punching the spikes in a furious barrage.
"ORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORA!"
Gyro threw a steel ball, hitting Chisaki right in the ribs. The villain coughed up blood as his broken ribs pierced his lungs. Izuku bounced off of one of the spikes while Chisaki was stunned, and he seemed to vanish from sight, before blowing the crime boss back with a powerful blow.
Ryuku protected the others as Kyoka held onto Sir Nighteye, as a powerful wind blew through the entire area from the force of Izuku's attack.
The true power of One For All... Kyoka thought to herself.
"I just used it at 100%!" Izuku exclaimed. "And I didn't die!"
Johnny looked down at the destruction below. "You didn't even break yourself...Eri, was that you?"
The little girl nodded.
"You're amazing!"
"You're a kind girl..." Nighteye said. "You didn't have to stay with me..."
"I couldn't let you die alone..." Kyoka said, Uraraka and Tsuyu were now behind her. "Besides...you don't have to. We can get Mr. Josuke here, or Mr. Giovanna...they can-"
"No...this was bound to happen..." Nighteye said. "You're in...for a lot of pain..."
"W-what?" Kyoka said, her eyebrows knitting together in fear. "Did you use your Foresight? What's going to happen?!"
"Those three...aren't going to...make it." Nighteye said. "They're your best friends...so...I thought you deserved to know...Overhaul will...kill them, and get away with Eri..."
Kyoka's mouth opened, and then closed. All of them...they're going to die?
Gyro?
Midoriya?
Jo...
Her heart stopped beating. I'm going to lose them all...I'm going to lose...
I never even told him how I felt...
No.
Fuck fate, I'm not letting this happen.
Kyoka got up and slowly handed Nighteye to Tsuyu. "Hold him."
"Where are you going Jiro?! You can't seriously be thinkin-" Uraraka was about to protest, when Kyoka cut her off.
"Those are three of the most important people in my life Uraraka...if they're going, I am too." And with that, Kyoka ran off, climbing one of the spikes in an effort to join her friends.
"Someone stop her!" Ryukyu said, but Joseph held up a hand. "I'm not stopping her, but I AM going with her." Without another word, the eldest Joestar ran to aid his great-grandson.
"They've...sealed their fate..." Nighteye said, a sad look coming across the dying hero's face.
Kyoka busted through the top door into the roof of a building, watching the fight. Izuku now had Eri tied to his back using Mirio's cape, while Johnny was leaping from building to building, landing hits where he could, and Gyro was playing the ranged game, keeping his distance and providing the other two cover.
Chisaki had mutated into a giant fleshy monster, and was swinging around at the heroes like King Kong. How the hell can I help? Kyoka thought to herself as the battle raged on. It's not like I'm a heavy hitter like those three, and if I use a sound attack I could hit them.
"Well, if it isn't Johnny's boyfriend!" A familiar voice exclaimed.
Susan Cujoh stood behind her, grinning like the madwoman she was. "Oh...wait..."
Kyoka's entire body gave out as the familiar feeling of self-loathing came back to her. No...this is her ability! Shit!
Susan laughed. "I knew that would work." She strolled over to Kyoka's motionless body and poked at her chest. "Wow, maybe there IS something there."
"Fuck you." Kyoka said with a spiteful glare.
"Still feisty, eh?" Susan said, leaning over her until their noses were practically touching. "Don't worry, I'm not really after you, you'll be fine as long as you play along."
"And why would I listen to you? After everything you've done?"
"Everything I've done is for my family sweetheart. Johnny was born a monster...and he's tricked you into thinking that he actually gives a damn about you. Can't you see you're just being used?"
"Johnny...is my friend you bitch!"
"But he doesn't love you."
Kyoka's eyes widened slightly.
"Why would someone like him end up with someone like you? Think about it Jiro, really think about it! He's got his father's looks, his Joestar physique. You? At most, you're plain."
Shut up, don't let her get you Kyoka...she wants you to crack.
"Johnny would NEVER settle for someone like you, he's probably going to go after some ditzy blonde bimbo."
SHUT UP! I know he doesn't feel the same way, you don't need to rub it in!
But...he always lightens up around me...
And...the way he looks at me, no one else has ever done that before...
"Don't you understand Jiro? He WANTED you to fall for him, now he has someone who will be loyal to him no matter what. He doesn't love you, he's a monster."
Kyoka spat in Susan's face. "Loves me or not, he still cares! He's my best friend, and nothing you say will ever turn me against him, you deceitful bitch!"
Susan slowly wiped the spit from her face, and Blood on the Dance Floor appeared at her side, the stand pressing it's thumb underneath Kyoka's breast.
"That is going to cost you a rib."
"Wha-"
*CRACK*
"GYAAAH!"
Kyoka seethed in agony, she couldn't even defend herself. She could only lay there as Susan did whatever she wanted to her.
"I'm trying to get through to you Jiro, do I need to have a talk with your parents? Kyotoku and Mika, I believe their names are?"
"DON'T YOU GO ANYWHERE NEAR THEM!" Kyoka screamed, only for Susan to strike her across the face
"Talking back?" Susan said as Blood on the Dance Floor picked up Kyoka's limp hand. "That's a pinky."
*CRACK!*
"HNNNN!" Kyoka grunted out as tears formed in the corner of her eyes. She's going to kill me...she's actually going to kill me.
Blood on the Dance Floor grabbed Kyoka by the shirt and carried her over to the edge of the building, holding her over the side. "I've tried to use words to convince you...but now I guess actions will have to do. Watch, in your final moments...he will not save you."
Kyoka gave Susan a defiant grin. "You'll regret killing me...JoJo will make you pay."
Susan let go, and Kyoka closed her eyes as the ground came rushing towards her. Well...this is it.
JoJo...kick her ass for me, okay? I'm sorry I wasn't strong enough...
I love you.
Then she felt a pair of arms wrap around her body, and she opened her eyes to see Tusk had caught her. Johnny had saw her fall, and shot away from Overhaul in an instant, just to save her.
"JoJo..."
But Johnny's moment of distraction was all that Overhaul needed, and Kyoka looked up to see a giant fleshy hand coming towards them at breakneck speed.
Izuku turned around in midair. "DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH THEM!"
But even he wasn't fast enough, so next thing Kyoka knew, she was in the air again.
Johnny threw her.
Leaving Kyoka to watch as Overhaul's hand came crashing down on him.
"NO!"
Kyoka crashed back onto the roof, where Susan was standing, in shock. "He...he wasn't supposed to do that...he wasn't...he's supposed to be evil...he couldn't have sacrificed himself..."
Kyoka could only lay there, when an object landed right next to her.
It was the tattered remains of Johnny's hat. The hat that she got him. Destroyed.
Susan took a few steps back, clutching the sides of her head. "Nononononononono! This has to be fake! This has to be..."
"It's real..."
Susan turned to see Kyoka...she was getting up.
"You were wrong about him...about everything...you were always the villain in this story." Kyoka's hand was clenched around the remains of Johnny's hat, and she slowly turned around to face Susan.
"You know...I always wondered if I were put in the same situation that Johnny was in...would I be willing to cross the line?"
Kyoka stepped forward, her bangs were casting a shadow over her eyes, but there were tears running down her cheeks. "You threatened my friends, my family, you tortured me, and now the love of my life might be dead because of you...I think I finally have my answer."
Susan took a few more steps back as Kyoka menacingly approached.
"Screw the rules."
Kyoka finally lifted her head and looked Susan in the eye, and the abusive mother was struck with paralyzing fear.
Her eyes had more than just tears, they had dark purple flames.
The Dark Determination.
"Because I'm about to fucking KILL YOU."
