Bearcticguy7: While I could keep Los Lobos around, he's already made a REALLY powerful enemy, however he WILL be somewhat redeemed.
"Well...I can honestly say I didn't see that reaction coming."
That was the only thing Gyro could say as Momo turned into a snarling beast right in front of him. He had just told her about his father, and then next thing he knew she was a big wolfish monster ready to tear his throat out.
"O-okay, I can see your in a bad mood...I'll just, run as fast as I can, alright?"
Gyro sprinted to the door and slammed it shut just as Wolf-Momo slammed into it, snarling and clawing at the wood. He quickly sprinted down the hall and kicked down Izuku's door, startling the OFA user. "GYRO?!"
"Hide Izuku, we don't have time!"
"Why are you in my room?! Why are we hiding?!"
"SHHHHH!"
Gyro pulled Izuku behind his three-foot All Might statue as another beast came prowling into the room, nashing it's teeth. It turned it's head, sniffing, and it's bright yellow eyes gleaned with hunger.
Ashido. Or what became of her anyway...
Gyro looked at Izuku, and the quirk inheritor frowned as he realized what Gyro was about to do. "It was limited edition..."
BAM!
Gyro kicked the All Might onto Wolf-Mina, and the beast that was once his friend began snarling and tearing it to pieces as the two ran out the door. Izuku shed a single tear as they both stormed into a broom closet and slammed the door.
Gyro quickly pulled out his phone and began typing in the group chat.
Meatball: Can someone PLEASE tell me what's going on? Why are people werewolves?
Ferretface: It's this fucking maniac from middle school, apparently I bullied him, even though I don't remember him at all.
Broccoli: Kacchan...
Ferretface: Shut up Deku! I don't need your fucking disapproval! Any idea on how we can kill this guy? AND WHO PICKED THIS STUPID NAME?!
Horseshoe: That would be me.
Ferretface: JOJO!
Meatball: We need to find him and take him out, otherwise our friends might end up eating one of us.
Horseshoe: I just got attacked by Mineta, let me tell you, he looks ridiculous. Kyoka is still writing her song, I don't think she realizes what's going on.
Meatball: Well, are you going to warn her or not?
Horseshoe: ...would it be bad if I blocked her door from the outside and she can't get out?
Spotify: YOU DID WHAT?!
Horseshoe: Oh, so you DO have your phone. I've been texting you about the WEREWOLVES for twenty minutes!
Spotify: Listen, when I'm in composer mode, I'm in the zone. Why the hell did you lock me in my own room?
Horseshoe: You were in the zone. You wouldn't have even noticed it one of them bit you, so it was a precaution.
Spotify: You better HOPE one of them didn't bite me.
Ferretface: It was a good decision, now we don't have to drag her along.
A loud crash echoed throughout the halls as Gyro smiled to himself. She broke her door down, barricade and all.
"YOU'RE DEAD YOU OVERGROWN BLONDE SWAMP RAT!"
"BRING IT ON YOU GODDAMN EXTRA!"
Gyro grabbed Izuku and popped out of the closet. "They're making too much noise!"
"Kacchan is going to get eaten, isn't he?"
"No, although I could use the quiet." Gyro grumbled as they turned the corner. Suddenly, Kyoka and Bakugo's yells ceased, followed by the sound of panicked sprinting as Kyoka rounded the corner. "RUN! THEY GOT HIM! RUN!"
"They got him?! That easily?!"
"They were sneaking up behind us!" Kyoka said as the three sprinted down the hall. "God...it just came right up and bit him before I could do anything. No wonder Johnny was worried about them sneaking up on me...I couldn't even hear it, and you know how good my ears are."
"The whole class is turning!" Izuku said. "We've already lost two members of our group..."
"Three..." The trio turned to see Johnny sitting in a corner. "I'm...sorry...they can bite stands...too."
"JoJo...no..." Kyoka said, reaching out for him.
"Stay BACK!" Johnny said as his arm involuntarily took a swipe at her, and Kyoka quickly withdrew. "I'm infected...luckily, I used the Spin on my own body...so it's slowing down a bit. He's taking the whole class. Uraraka is still human, I helped her get away...and Kaminari. Sero is infected, and he's formed this web of tape in the common room so he can trap and infect people. I'm not sure about Jolyne...I know my dad is out doing business shit. I'm sorry I couldn't be more of a help."
Gyro gritted his teeth. "You're only human Johnny...well, for right now anyway. I really hope this shit goes away if we beat the stand user."
Izuku looked down. "Kacchan hurt him, but I can't imagine this extreme of a reaction...why is he infecting the whole school over a case of bullying?"
"Some people...aren't as resilient as you Izuku." Johnny said with a smile. "They break easier, and Katsuki might have only been one brick on top of the pile. If he bullied ME, while I was already getting shit from my mother...I might have snapped like this guy."
"True, we don't know his background...maybe he's just angry at the world, and he's taking it out on Bakugo." Kyoka said, tapping her forehead in thought. "Either way, no matter how sad his backstory is, we've got to take him out, QUICKLY."
Izuku shook his head. "No, if Kacchan bullied him, then he must know who I am. Maybe...maybe I can get through to him."
"He's turning my boyfriend into Animal from the Muppets, you BETTER get through to him, or I will." Kyoka stated matter of factly. Sure enough, Johnny's eyebrows had grown significantly larger, and he now had fangs protruding from his bottom lip. "I think you guys should leave while I'm still in control of myself...I don't want to hurt any of you."
That's when they were caught off guard by a small squeak...no, a yip, from a small dog. A dog with spiky blonde fur was looking up at them, anger in it's eyes as it yipped up at them in fury.
"No way..."
"Is that...?"
"KACCHAN?!" Izuku shouted, stunned. Johnny took one look at the angry little dog and began howling with laughter. "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Look at him, he's a little Pomeranian! Hehehehehe, look at him woof!"
Izuku knelt down and examined Dog-Katsuki, suppressing a snort. "Well...you're in a tough spot, aren't you Kacchan?"
Dog-Katsuki attempted to bite his hand, but then Johnny groweled. The group turned to see he was growing a snout. "RUuN!" Was all Johnny could say before the gruesome transformation was complete, and a monster was standing in his place, slowly advancing on them.
"JoJo..." Was all that Kyoka could say as Wolf-Johnny backed them into a corner.
"We probably should have listened to him and ran away, instead of laughing at Bakugo..." Gyro said, grinning nervously. "Johnny, come on man, you wouldn't maul your partner to death, right?"
Izuku picked up the squealing Pomeranian. "JoJo, think about what you're doing! You can fight it!" Johnny took a swipe at them, but his other hand caught it. Clearly, he was still fighting the transformation.
God dammit. I have to do this, don't I? This is gonna hurt. Kyoka thought to herself and put a hand to the beast's cheek. For a moment, the beast's eyes became Johnny's once more. "Remember what I said about the added weight to our battles? Just know that I'm only doing this because I love you."
She then inserted an earphone jack into the side of Wolf-Johnny's head, pumping just enough sound into him to knock him out. Kyoka bit her lip as guilt ate away at her, and turned to the others. "We should go."
Gyro nodded and patted Kyoka on the back. "Let's go then...Uraraka and Kaminari are still out there..."
"Yeah...he just had to look at me like that."
"I'm more surprised you were actually able to do it."
"I'm not some stupid damsel that falls apart whenever her love interest is hurt, Gyro, especially when he can be saved...I'm just...bothered."
Yeah, she REALLY didn't like having to do that... Gyro thought. But that's what makes her so strong, one of the strongest people I know...
Gyro looked to Izuku and his unconscious partner. Three people in this room he couldn't imagine living his life without them in it.
Gregorio Zeppeli stood in front of UA high school with a frown on his face. Why the supposed best hero school in Japan would accept an Italian with no questions asked, he had no idea. All he knew is that he would have a talk with the guy in charge.
It didn't help that the school grounds was currently infested with hairy creatures dedicated to turning as many people as possible, plus, it had started to rain. Gregorio sighed. "Such incompetent management..." He walked right through the gate and hurled a blue steel ball right into a wolf with green fur. The wolf in question squealed and rolled to the side, before extending it's tongue in an attempt to snatch the elder Zeppeli.
He grabbed the wolf's tongue and stomped on it, and the wolf fell down, whimpering. That's when a pair of arms grabbed him from behind. Before Gregorio could do anything, Joseph Joestar threw him to the ground.
"Well, Gyro mentioned his father was showing up...but I can't let you just assault the students." Joseph said, cracking his knuckles. "Besides, I love that boy of yours like a son...and I'm not gonna let you run his life anymore."
Gregorio glared at the eldest Joestar. "And who are you to judge?"
"Joseph Joestar! Slayer of Pillar Men and Ceasar Zeppeli's best friend!"
Gregorio's face turned into one of pure loathing. "So...he has thrown himself in with YOUR lot, has he? Haven't you led enough of my family to their deaths? And he is MY son, not yours!"
Gregorio threw another steel ball at Joseph, and the eldest Joestar used Hermit Purple: Flail Mode to bat it aside. "What in the-"
Just then, a black wolf turned to Gregorio and snarled, it's eyes filled with more than just hunger. Gregorio was forced to dive out of the way as the creature clawed at the ground where he once stood. "You used the SPIN?! How did the Joestars come to possess such power?! We tried to keep it away from you...unless..."
Gregorio stared at a puddle. "He gave away our secrets...does he really hate me that much?"
"He doesn't hate you!" Joseph said, throwing Wolf-Tsuyu off of him. "He just doesn't want to be tied down, can't you see he's free to make his own choices?!"
"Don't you DARE speak for him! I know what's best for my son!" Gregorio snapped as he took a steel ball and pressed it into the ground, causing the rain water to accumulate in a spinning whirlpool, catching the werewolves and Joseph in it's wrath. "Now leave me be Joestar, and NEVER bother my family again!"
I came here to collect my son, and that is what I intend to do. This school is much worse than I ever expected it to be, with villain attacks and now werewolves...what's next, a Pillar Man?!
Julius is in SO much trouble, he deserves to be stripped of his steel balls for this...this MADNESS.
That's when Gregorio was pulled off his feet, and Joseph rushed in and began choking him out from the back. "You can't control his life! Gyro is his own person, who can make his own choices!"
"You're...WRONG!"
Gregorio leaned forward and flipped Joseph over his head, slamming him into the ground. "You are filling his head with delusions of grandeur! Making him believe that he can save the day, making him boldly and blindly risk his life to 'save the world'! The Zeppeli family is better off as it is now, SAFE, SECURE!"
"Caesar would disagree, he'd call you a coward."
"That's why he's DEAD! He lived a fool, and he died a fool!"
CRACK!
Gregorio's head snapped back as Joseph's metal fist slammed into his face. "YOU TAKE THAT BACK!" Gregorio attempted to get back up, but Joseph pressed one of his steel balls into the elder Zeppeli's cheek. "One flick of the wrist and it's over! Now TAKE BACK WHAT YOU SAID!"
"WHY?!"
"CAESAR WAS THE BRAVEST MAN I'VE EVER KNOWN!" Joseph screamed, his face getting red with anger. Joseph fell to his knees, and the anger faded to sadness. "And...I want to apologize. I remembered that Caesar had siblings, but I never checked up on them. I never had the chance to tell them just how much I valued him...so naturally they grew up bitter, and undoubtedly passed that bitterness onto you."
"We have every right to hate you, Joestar. I don't need your damn apology!" Gregorio said as his upper body twisted towards Joseph. "And you're nothing but a novice, I've been practicing the Spin since birth!"
Gregorio socked Joseph in the face, and next thing he knew, his head began to involuntarily twist to the side. Joseph grabbed his head and tried to stop it, knowing full well his neck would snap. Gregorio snatched Joseph's steel ball and examined it. "Wekapipo...it makes sense, how you would get these from a disgrace. Don't worry, I'm not going to kill you, I'm here for my son and that's it."
"Do you love him?"
"What?" Gregorio raised an eyebrow.
"Your son, do you love him?" Joseph asked as he struggled to keep his head in place.
"...why wouldn't I?"
"You could've fooled me. Heh...you really think you know what's best for him, don't you?"
"Well, yes. What are you getting at Joestar?"
"What's his favorite food?"
"I don't have time for this."
"His favorite color?"
"It's blue, isn't it?"
"Wrong, green. Who is his best friend?"
"Julius has friends?"
"My great-grandson, Johnny Kujo. And yes, he has a lot of friends, he's real sociable, believe it or not. Why do you think he hasn't talked to you?"
"Why?"
"Because he doesn't feel like you understand him. You say you love him, and yet I seem to know him better than you. Has it ever occurred to you that you may have hurt him?"
Gregorio looked down and blinked. How well did he truly KNOW his son? Did he even know him at all? "I...I guess you have a valid point. I have forsworn attachment for the sake of my duty Joestar, and I tried to bring him up the same way. I only know the important things about my son, like his potential, and that...despite the lack of attachment, I DO care for him. Why do you think I came all this way for him?"
"I admire your duty for your country...but a man's most important duty should be his family." Joseph said, sitting up. "A government is about organization, and it's important to keep order...but aren't rules put in place to protect those we love?"
"What are you saying Mr. Joestar? I shouldn't serve my country?"
"I'm saying you should actually try to get to know your son, Mr. Zeppeli. Stay a few days, see what he's doing before you decide to take him back, give him a CHANCE."
Gregorio sighed, looking around. "You wouldn't understand." Then he walked towards the building as the whirlpool disbanded, and the werewolves began to advance on the old man.
"Oh COME ON!" Kyoka yelled as Wolf-Sero swung down to them, teeth bared. She barely managed to duck under his claw as he swung past. He landed on the wall and turned to them, snarling.
"Kacchan, stop squirming!" Izuku cried out as the Pomeranian struggled to get out of his arms. "We're trying to protect you!"
"Knowing him, he would probably be screaming about how he doesn't need protection." Gyro noted, throwing a steel ball through the web of tape that covered the common room, before chuckling. "Nyo ho! Someone could take that out of context."
"I-I'm not sure now is the time for dirty jokes." Was all that Izuku could say before he was knocked off his feet by a blue wolf with shattered glasses and engines in it's hind legs. "Oh no...Iida..."
Wolf-Iida ran across the wall, kicking Kyoka into the counter of the kitchen area before she could react. She cried out as she fell to the floor and laid still. Wolf-Iida lowered his head, and was about to clamp his jaws around Kyoka's throat when Izuku lept in and punched Iida across the face.
"DETROIT SMASH! (sorry Iida..)"
Izuku scooped up Dog-Katsuki and barely managed to avoid Wolf-Sero's jaws as they snapped an inch away from his face. Then a steel ball caught Sero mid-swing, knocking him down onto the floor. Gyro leaned over and breathed out, before briskly walking over to check on Kyoka.
"Is she okay?"
"For the most part, she took a real nasty hit there...I don't think she's waking up any time soon."
That's when they heard the terrified squeal of a certain little dog. They both turned around to see a man with wolfish features holding Bakugo, and was looking down at him with malice. "Tell me Katsuki...how does it feel to be small?"
"STOP! Let him go." Izuku said, putting his arms up. The man looked up and took a step back. "Izuku Midoriya?!"
"Yeah."
"What are you...why are you DEFENDING him?! He tormented you more than anyone else! You should be helping ME."
"Kacchan has made a lot of mistakes, I know, but he has the heart of a hero. I...I believe in him, I believe he can be a better person, and you should too. Revenge won't solve anything, it will only make things worse."
"He said I was small, that I was weak. I just wanted to show him what that felt like, to be chased around by monsters...or bullies."
"Yeah, well WE got chased by those monsters too." Gyro said, glaring at the stand user who caused the mess.
"Oh, I can just turn them back. Don't worry, nobody is actually hurt...I just wanted to scare him."
"You infected all of my friends with the furry disease...just to scare Bakugo?" Gyro said, slowly approaching the stand user, but Izuku put a hand out to stop him, shaking his head.
"Can you turn everyone back? Even Kacchan?"
"He'll hurt me."
"Not if you're already out of the building...listen, the best revenge you could ever get on him, is to forgive him. Then he has no power over you, and maybe...he'll grow from it. I know how it feels, to feel small and helpless."
The stand user nodded as tears started to form in his eyes. "That makes sense...my name is Akio by the way."
"Hi Akio, I'm Izuku." The OFA user said with a smile. Next thing he knew, Akio was sobbing into his shoulder, and Izuku patted him on the back.
"Bullshit."
"Huh?" They both turned to see a human and buth naked Katsuki slowly getting back up. "I call bullshit. You said you did all of this to scare me? What about Tombstone?"
"T-Tombstone?"
"The guy you sent to FUCKING KILL ME?!" Katsuki said, lighting his palms as he began to advance, grabbing Akio by the fur and pulling him in close. "HUH?! HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THAT YOU FURRY BASTARD?!"
"W-who is T-Tombstone?!"
Katsuki's eyes narrowed for a moment, before he let Akio go and stomped off. Just then, Uraraka and Kaminari burst into the room, with Jotaro in tow. "GUYS WE BROUGHT...aaaaand it's already been taken care of."
Akio sighed. "I think I've overstayed my welcome. I'm sorry I dragged you into this Midoriya."
"It's okay!"
Akio opened a window and jumped out of it, and immediately began running from the now-human security. Jotaro opened his mouth, and then closed it, having decided against saying whatever it was he was going to say.
Not that it mattered anyway.
"Julius."
Gyro froze, both at the voice and the name, and turned to face his bruised father. Gregorio looked pissed, but his voice remained calm as he continued. "You're coming home, NOW."
"I am home."
Before Gregorio could respond, Johnny walked into the room in nothing but his underwear. Johnny froze upon seeing everyone in the room, clearly he was planning to sneak into his dorm to replace the clothes that were destroyed by his transformation.
Kyoka say up, groaning, took one look at Johnny, and immediately passed out again.
Akio sighed as he say down in an alleyway. Izuku was absolutely right, forgiveness was truly the best revenge. The only thing that bothered him now, was that Katsuki had said that he tried to have him killed.
Why would he ever go that far?
Before Akio could ponder on why Katsuki would think such a thing, a rope suddenly fastened itself around his neck. Akio clutched at the rope in desperation as he began to be pulled upwards, his feet kicked out as he struggled for air as he was slowly pulled up the side of the building.
Someone was trying to hang him, Phantom of the Opera style.
The last thing Akio saw were a pair of bright green eyes, before everything faded to black.
Tombstone cut the rope and watched the body plummet to the ground, humming as it made impact. "No one makes a fool out of Tombstone, Twilight lookin' piece of shit."
"Why didn't you just challenge him to a duel?" Living Dead asked, tilting it's head inquisitively.
"He's a damn liar, lied to me about that Bakugo kid, and he played with lives as if they were nothing. A man with no honor doesn't get an honorable end." Tombstone responded, and his stand nodded.
Unbeknownst to Tombstone, Himiko Toga was watching him with a smile.
