1.
>You're Angel Rammstein.
-
2.
>And you're having fun at Gioia's house.
-
3.
>Your big brother brought you here.
-
4.
>And he's in the kitchen with Jojo's and Gioia's daddies.
-
5.
>Jojo's daddy is a police officer, and Gioia's daddy is a businessman.
-
6.
>And Gioia lives in a rich person's house.
-
7.
>She's showing off this trick where she tosses a ball, and it spins so fast that it goes around the room, and comes right back to her!
-
8.
>It's so cool!
-
9.
"Hey, Gioia, how did you do that?"
-
10.
>She looks at you, and smiles.
-
11.
>>"Daddy taught me how to do it! He calls it 'the spin game!' And I'm really good at it because my Stand, [BIG BALLS], is helping me."
-
12.
>"What?! No fair, Gioia! My punchy ghost doesn't help me throw balls!"
-
13.
"Can you show us, Gioia?"
-
14.
>She looks unsure, before turning to the kitchen.
-
15.
>>"Daddy, can I teach my friends how to play the spin game?"
-
16.
>You see Gioia's daddy look over from the kitchen.
-
17.
>"Of course, sweetie. But do it outside, I don't want you breaking anything."
-
18.
>Yay!
-
19.
>You and JoJo follow Gioia!
-
20.
>This is gonna be fun!
-
21.
-
22.
>You and your friends go to the backyard.
-
23.
>Gioia's backyard is a not steep hill leading down to a treeline.
-
24.
>She has a whole forest in her backyard!
-
25.
>It's Jojo's turn to learn the spin game right now.
-
26.
>She's trying so hard, but it's not working for her.
-
27.
>She doesn't look happy.
-
28.
>>"No, JoJo. You gotta use your whole arm to spin it."
-
29.
>Gioia gives Jojo a ball, and takes another one for herself.
-
30.
>>"Like me. Watch."
-
31.
>Gioia throws the ball, and it spins through the air!
-
32.
>It bounces off a tree, and comes right back to her hand.
-
33.
>>"Now you."
-
34.
>Jojo winds up, and throws the ball.
-
35.
>It...kinda spins, staying in the air, before falling to the ground.
-
36.
>Jojo looks angry, obviously upset she didn't hit anything.
-
37.
>"This is a stupid game! I don't wanna play anymore!"
-
38.
"But Jojo, you managed to spin it!"
-
39.
>"I don't care! I can do just fine with ripple!"
-
40.
>Ripple?
-
41.
"What's that, JoJo?"
-
42.
>She hmphs.
-
43.
>"Daddy wanted me to learn karate, so he hired someone from the Speedwagon flounder nation to teach me. I know karate called 'Ripple.' It kinda does what the Spin game does, except better."
-
44.
"Can you show us, Jojo?"
-
45.
>She huffs, and looks around.
-
46.
>Finding a pile of leaves, she walks toward it.
-
47.
>She places her hands in the pile, and starts breathing.
-
48.
>Suddenly, the leaves crackle with gold energy, and form into a huge plate!
-
49.
>That's really cool, too!
-
50.
-
51.
>Gioia looks impressed for a moment, but then she shrugged.
-
52.
>>"That's cool, but Spin is still better."
-
53.
>Jojo looked over at Gioia with a mean look.
-
54.
>"Is not!"
-
55.
>>"Is too!"
-
56.
>The two girls glare at each other, and the game begins.
-
57.
>"Is not!"
-
58.
>>"Is too!"
-
59.
>"Is not!"
-
60.
>>"Is too!"
-
61.
>"Is not!"
-
62.
>>"Is too!"
-
63.
>You wonder what big brother is doing...
-
64.
-
65.
>"...So that's when I decided that I'm definitely not going back to the Compound."
-
66.
>You're Erich Rammstein again.
-
67.
>And you're discussing your recent misadventure with your two new acquaintances.
-
68.
>You leave out you being a NatSoc.
-
69.
>No sense in them learning about that yet.
-
70.
>"So there's two confirmed Stand Users in that compound outside Canterlot?"
-
71.
>Josuke was an off duty police officer, and Jojo's dad.
-
72.
>He wanted to know about all the Stand users in town.
-
73.
>A precautionary measure, he said.
-
74.
>There was a lot of Stand users in his hometown back in Japan.
-
75.
>You nod, turning to him.
-
76.
"Given how Stands are acquired, and I didn't see any wounds on them, there's two more possible."
-
77.
>He mused to himself, digesting the information.
-
78.
>>"And why did you think it was a good idea to go there, anyway?"
-
79.
>Geno Zeppeli was Gioia's father, and he apparently ran a curio shop.
-
80.
>He apparently saw a way to use balls, in a way that he can fight on par with Stand users.
-
81.
>His Stand allowed him to see other timelines, or something like that.
-
82.
>You give him a shrug.
-
83.
"The girl was cute, I felt lonely, and we were getting along fine. How could I say no?"
-
84.
>He seemed like he bought that, and didn't use his Stand to find out the truth.
-
85.
>You continue your conversation, exchanging notes on who in town is a Stand user.
-
86.
>It's starting to look like there's more than you thought...
-
87.
-
88.
>Angel Rammstein.
-
89.
>That's you.
-
90.
>And your friends are still arguing.
-
91.
>"Is not times infinity!"
-
92.
>>"Is too times infinity plus infinity!"
-
93.
>This is getting annoying.
-
94.
-
95.
>You look down, and kick a pebble.
-
96.
>They're being awfully competitive.
-
97.
>You look around Gioia's backyard.
-
98.
>Wow, she has a swing set and a playhouse shaped like a boat.
-
99.
>You're kinda jealous of that.
-
100.
>Hey...
-
101.
>What was that in the wood line?
-
102.
>An animal?
-
103.
"Gioia?"
-
104.
>The argument stops, as Gioia looks over.
-
105.
"Are there any big animals in your woods?"
-
106.
>She looks up, thinking.
-
107.
>>"No, I don't think so. Daddy said the government forced all the big animals out of the neighborhood."
-
108.
"Then what's running around back there?"
-
109.
>Your friends look over to the wood line where you're pointing.
-
110.
"I saw a big shadow running in the trees."
-
111.
>>"There shouldn't be any big animals back there."
-
112.
>"What if it's a neighbor?"
-
113.
>Gioia suddenly stomps her foot.
-
114.
>>"Then they're trespassing! They're not allowed here without Daddy's permission!"
-
115.
>Gioia storms toward the wood line in a huff.
-
116.
>>"They should know better! They're not following the rules!"
-
117.
>You and JoJo look at each other, then back at Gioia.
-
118.
>Then you both take off after her.
-
119.
>"Wait, Gioia, we're coming, too!"
-
120.
-
121.
>You can barely see Gioia as she charges ahead.
-
122.
>You and JoJo try to keep up.
-
123.
>She disappears behind a bush.
-
124.
>Jojo goes on ahead, and you follow.
-
125.
>When you get past the bush, you only find Jojo looking around, confused.
-
126.
>Gioia seems to have disappeared.
-
127.
"Gioia?"
-
128.
>You and Jojo start calling out to her.
-
129.
>"Gioia?"
-
130.
"Gioia?!"
-
131.
>"Gioia!?"
-
132.
>You can't find her anywhere.
-
133.
"This is bad, Jojo."
-
134.
>Jojo looks over to you.
-
135.
>"We've got to find her!"
-
136.
>You nod.
-
137.
"Stay close to me. We can't run off alone."
-
138.
-
139.
>You are Gioia Zeppeli.
-
140.
>And you just realized you're lost.
-
141.
>You've never been this far back in the woods before.
-
142.
>You just got really upset when someone started breaking the rules.
-
143.
>But you can't find anyone back here.
-
144.
>Wait, weren't your friends following you?
-
145.
>You look back.
-
146.
>They aren't there.
-
147.
"Jojo? Angel?"
-
148.
>You don't hear a response.
-
149.
"Jojo?! Angel?!"
-
150.
>You call louder, but there's still no response.
-
151.
>Now you're scared.
-
152.
>You've never been on your own before.
-
153.
>Y-you've always had daddy or Jojo with you.
-
154.
>Y-you're not crying.
-
155.
>...
-
156.
>You hope someone finds you soon.
-
157.
-
158.
>You lean back against a tree.
-
159.
>You hug your knees to your chest.
-
160.
>Why'd you have to be stupid?
-
161.
>Daddy told you not to go too deep in the woods, but you didn't listen.
-
162.
>Now you can only wait for your friends to find you.
-
163.
>You hear leaves rustling some distance away.
-
164.
>You look up, and smile.
-
165.
"Jojo? Angel?"
-
166.
>Out steps a large creature made of branches and leaves.
-
167.
>It looks at you, snarling.
-
168.
>That's not Angel or Jojo.
-
169.
>Being alone, that's something you're afraid of.
-
170.
>But this thing?
-
171.
>It doesn't scare you one bit.
-
172.
>Daddy said if you're in trouble, and someone wants to hurt you, play the spin game at them, and they'll think twice!
-
173.
>And you just happen to have some of the balls you were using earlier.
-
174.
"I'm not afraid of you!"
-
175.
>You put on your mean face, and get ready to throw a ball.
-
176.
>[BIG BALLS] is telling you where your throw will go.
-
177.
>The creature steps closer, and you line up the throw.
-
178.
"You aren't gonna scare me, so shut up!"
-
179.
>The creature leaps at you.
-
180.
>You toss a ball, and nail it in the chin.
-
181.
>It yelps like a hurt doggy, and falls to the ground.
-
182.
>The ball flies back at you, as the stick doggy gets up.
-
183.
"There's more where that came from, so just go away!"
-
184.
>The stick doggy narrows its eyes at you, before it tries advancing again.
-
185.
>You feel like you know what it's gonna try to do.
-
186.
>You line up another throw, and chuck the ball.
-
187.
>It spins in a way as to come at the doggy from the side.
-
188.
>The doggy jumps out of the way, and looks like it grins.
-
189.
>You grin back.
-
190.
>Stupid dog.
-
191.
>The ball returns, hitting the stick dog in it's hiney.
-
192.
>You immediately throw your next ball, putting more spin into it.
-
193.
>The ball hits the doggy on the forehead, and begins to spin it's head around like a drill.
-
194.
>Confused, the doggy stumbles around, until your balls begin to spin back to you.
-
195.
>It collapses, looking really dizzy after it's head stopped spinning.
-
196.
"I told you to go away! But you had to be a bad dog!"
-
197.
-
198.
>The doggy gets its focus back, and looks at you.
-
199.
>It's still snarling, but it's acting like it's scared, now.
-
200.
>You start walking towards it.
-
201.
>With a yip, it gets up to it's feet, and starts running away.
-
202.
>You call after it.
-
203.
"You should've done that before, stupid!"
-
204.
>"GIOIA?!"
-
205.
>That sounded like Jojo!
-
206.
>You turn, and call after her.
-
207.
"Jojo?!"
-
208.
>"Gioia?!"
-
209.
>>"We're over here!"
-
210.
"Angel! Jojo! I'm over here! Come get me!"
-
211.
>After a short moment, Jojo and Angel appear.
-
212.
>Their faces light up as soon as they see you.
-
213.
>"Gioia!"
-
214.
>>"Gioia!"
-
215.
>They rush over, and you share a big group hug.
-
216.
"I wasn't scared at all while you were gone! I didn't miss you guys at all!"
-
217.
>You aren't tearing up.
-
218.
>"And we didn't miss you, either."
-
219.
-
220.
>You're Jojo.
-
221.
>And you're so happy to be reunited with your friend.
-
222.
>You won't say that to her, though.
-
223.
>The hug soon breaks, and you look at each other.
-
224.
"We should get back to your house, Gioia."
-
225.
>She nods in agreement, along with Angel.
-
226.
>"Which way do we go?"
-
227.
>>"Huh? we thought you knew!"
-
228.
>"I've never been this far back in the woods before!"
-
229.
>Oh crud.
-
230.
"Are...are we all lost?"
-
231.
>There's the sound of a dog howling.
-
232.
>And there's footsteps getting closer.
-
233.
>Gioia turns to the sound, grabbing the balls in her pocket.
-
234.
>"Oh, you're back for more?! I'll whip your butt, doggy!"
-
235.
>You look over to see a dog made of sticks padding towards you.
-
236.
"There's just one. We can-"
-
237.
>Another one appears.
-
238.
>Then another.
-
239.
>Then another.
-
240.
>Then another, and another, and another.
-
241.
>"O-oh, it looks like the stick doggy has friends."
-
242.
>This is just GREAT.
-
243.
-
244.
>You've heard of these.
-
245.
>Some boys were talking about them at recess the other day.
-
246.
>Apparently there's this old story of an evil wizard who lived in the forest near Canterlot.
-
247.
>He made magic plants that moved on their own.
-
248.
>Some of them turned into animals, and would attack people.
-
249.
>The wizard was long gone, but his creations remained.
-
250.
>Timber wolves lived in the forest, and would eat little children who got lost.
-
251.
>You thought it was just a tale the adults told to prevent children from running away.
-
252.
>But here they are.
-
253.
>...
-
254.
>>"[ROCK YOU]!"
-
255.
>"Ayiyiyiyiyiyi!"
-
256.
>Angel's Stand started beating on a timber wolf who got too close.
-
257.
>She looks determined not to get eaten.
-
258.
>Well, you're not getting eaten, either.
-
259.
>Another timber wolf charges in.
-
260.
>You take a deep breath.
-
261.
"Hamon overdrive!"
-
262.
>You nail the timber wolf on the nose, sending it flying back.
-
263.
>But as it falls, another one leaps at you.
-
264.
>Only to be struck by one of Gioia's balls.
-
265.
>You look back, and nod.
-
266.
"Thanks, Gioia!"
-
267.
>She chucks another ball, as Angel slams her Stand into another timber wolf.
-
268.
>"Keep fighting, stupid! You can thank me when we get home!"
-
269.
>You're not stupid.
-
270.
>You slam your fist into a group of leaves, making them into a shield.
-
271.
>You then charge forward, smashing into the wolves.
-
272.
>You thought of a way to use Hamon charged leaves as a weapon.
-
273.
>Wait, can you think of another way to use Hamon?
-
274.
-
275.
>Hamon affects leaves.
-
276.
>Leaves are plants.
-
277.
>What else is a plant?
-
278.
>Grass?
-
279.
>You charge your fists up, and bring them down to the ground.
-
280.
"Overdrive!"
-
281.
>You slam your Hamon energy into the ground, creating a cool energy ring that spreads out.
-
282.
>It runs into several timber wolves, shocking them.
-
283.
>But then you notice that they're repairing themselves.
-
284.
>No one's attacks are doing anything!
-
285.
>What are you gonna do?
-
286.
-
287.
>You're Angel Rammstein.
-
288.
>And your Stand, while effective at slowing them down, isn't doing much in the way of damage.
-
289.
>You look back at your friends.
-
290.
>They're fighting as hard as they can.
-
291.
>And though they aren't doing any better, you still feel more useless.
-
292.
>You can just freeze these monsters in place.
-
293.
>But they can actually be tear them apart.
-
294.
>Gioia shoves you out of the way to chuck another ball at a monster.
-
295.
>You manage to freeze another monster, but it's Jojo who finishes it off.
-
296.
>It's not fair.
-
297.
>They're working so hard to protect you.
-
298.
>You want to protect them too.
-
299.
>Your eyes befall another wolf, eyeing you hungrily.
-
300.
"[ROCK YOU]!"
-
301.
>But your Stand doesn't respond.
-
302.
>You look back, and see [ROCK YOU] on the ground.
-
303.
>It's huddled into a ball, and the pink hue of its armor is now brown.
-
304.
>Oh no...
-
305.
>Did you kill your Stand?
-
306.
-
307.
>You look back at the wolf, starting to panic.
-
308.
>Jojo and Gioia are too busy fighting off other wolves!
-
309.
>And your Stand is dead...
-
310.
>What're you going to do?
-
311.
>The wolf charges you.
-
312.
>This is it.
-
313.
>The wolf lunges at you.
-
314.
>"Ayi!"
-
315.
>Suddenly, you feel a fist slam into your arm.
-
316.
>A second later, the wolf bites down on it, but it's teeth shatter.
-
317.
>Your arm has turned to stone!
-
318.
>You can still move it, but it's now a literal rock!
-
319.
>You look at what punches you.
-
320.
>It's...
-
321.
>[ROCK YOU]?!
-
322.
>But it's taller, and the shoulders look ridiculously huge.
-
323.
>And it's ears are swept back, too. And you can see "II" on its chest.
-
324.
>This is...
-
325.
>You turn, grinning.
-
326.
>Two more wolves come up.
-
327.
"[ROCK YOU, ACT 2]!"
-
328.
>"Ayiyiyiyiyiyi!"
-
329.
>[ROCK YOU]'s fists start slamming into the wolves.
-
330.
>They break apart in mere seconds!
-
331.
>Stones in the shape of sticks fall to the ground.
-
332.
>Not only is [ROCK YOU] more powerful now, but it seems to have gained a new power!
-
333.
>The other wolves look over, quite concerned with this turn of events.
-
334.
>They start regrouping, but Gioia threw her balls at them, causing them to panic.
-
335.
>And then Jojo keeps shocking them with her Ripple.
-
336.
>They're running now!
-
337.
>But that one's going for Jojo!
-
338.
>Not if you can help it!
-
339.
"[ROCK YOU]!"
-
340.
>Your Stand turns the wolf to stone, and breaks it apart.
-
341.
>Before you know it, you're standing alone with Jojo and Gioia.
-
342.
>You...won?
-
343.
-
344.
>You won!
-
345.
>You're grinning so much right now.
-
346.
>Jojo and Gioia run up and hug you.
-
347.
>You laugh, hugging them back.
-
348.
>After a bit, you break the hug, smiling.
-
349.
>Gioia looks around, trying to find where you all came from.
-
350.
>>"We need to get back. I don't wanna worry daddy."
-
351.
>You nod.
-
352.
"I don't like those monsters, either. We should get away from them."
-
353.
>Everyone agrees.
-
354.
>Gioia steps out in front.
-
355.
>>"I'll lead the way. This is my forest."
-
356.
>Jojo steps up, grabbing her.
-
357.
>"You don't know where we are. I'll lead."
-
358.
>Gioia looks at her meanly.
-
359.
>>"Neither do you! You can't find our way back!"
-
360.
>"Yeah?! Well, I found you, didn't I?!"
-
361.
>>"How do you know I didn't get lost on purpose, huh?"
-
362.
>"Then that means you're too stupid to lead!"
-
363.
>>"Am not!"
-
364.
>"Are too!"
-
365.
>>"Am not!"
-
366.
>"Are too!"
-
367.
>Not this stuff again.
-
368.
>This is just...annoying.
-
369.
"Girls! Let's just stick together. Why don't we start heading uphill?"
-
370.
>Jojo and Gioia whine, bemoaned.
-
371.
>"But I don't wanna go uphill!"
-
372.
>>"But I don't wanna go uphill!"
-
373.
>You huff.
-
374.
"But Gioia's house is at the top of a hill, right? That means that's the way home."
-
375.
>Seriously, did they not think of that?
-
376.
>They both sigh in defeat.
-
377.
>"Okaaay."
-
378.
>>"Okaaay."
-
379.
>You all start moving uphill.
-
380.
-
381.
>You are Gioia.
-
382.
>And Jojo is stupid.
-
383.
>You can lead everyone out of the forest just fine.
-
384.
>You don't need her to tell you what to do.
-
385.
>You get enough of that from Daddy.
-
386.
>Jeez, why did you have to live at the top of a hill?
-
387.
>It's so haaaard to walk uphill.
-
388.
-
389.
>You're Jojo.
-
390.
>And it's so haaaard to walk uphill.
-
391.
>Stupid Gioia.
-
392.
>Stupid woods.
-
393.
>Stupid Timberwolves.
-
394.
>Why does everything have to be difficult sometimes?
-
395.
>Well, the ground is getting softer, so at least that's something.
-
396.
>It feels good in your feet, but didn't daddy say something about soft ground?
-
397.
>Yeah.
-
398.
>"If you're ever near trees, and you find ground that seems too soft, avoid it."
-
399.
>You stop.
-
400.
>Why did daddy want you to avoid soft ground?
-
401.
>"Because of sinkholes. The earth is hollow underneath the soft ground. It's easy to fall."
-
402.
>Oh, crud.
-
403.
"Everyone, stop!"
-
404.
>Angel stops, but Gioia keeps going.
-
405.
>You reach out to her.
-
406.
"Gioia, wait!"
-
407.
>She keeps going, sticking her nose up in the air.
-
408.
>"I'm not gonna wait for a stupid head like you!"
-
409.
>Darnit, Gioia!
-
410.
"You don't understand! There's sinkholes around-"
-
411.
>Before you can finish the sentence, Gioia suddenly falls into the ground with a shriek.
-
412.
"Gioia!"
-
413.
>>"Gioia!"
-
414.
-
415.
>Crudcrudcrudcrudcrud!
-
416.
>You're Gioia!
-
417.
>And you're falling!
-
418.
>You think only for a second.
-
419.
>You need to go up.
-
420.
>You can play the spin game.
-
421.
>You once made leaves go up with the spin!
-
422.
>You chuck both your balls downward!
-
423.
>Even though it's dark, you can see exactly where they went!
-
424.
>The balls hit the ground, and keep spinning!
-
425.
>They spin so fast, they push the wind up!
-
426.
>It's enough to cushion your fall, and let you land safely.
-
427.
>You hold your dress to your legs, and land softly on your butt.
-
428.
>You sigh in relief, before taking your balls.
-
429.
>You look up, and call out.
-
430.
"I'm okay!"
-
431.
-
432.
>You are Jojo.
-
433.
>And you and Angel are relieved to hear that.
-
434.
"Can you get back up?"
-
435.
>A moment later, you hear Gioia.
-
436.
>"No, it's too dark to see anything!"
-
437.
>Oh, darn.
-
438.
>Angel looks over at you.
-
439.
>>"We can't just leave her here."
-
440.
>You shrug.
-
441.
"Well, we could."
-
442.
>Angel Huff's at you
-
443.
>>"Jojo!"
-
444.
>You giggle.
-
445.
"I'm only kidding."
-
446.
>You look down the sinkhole.
-
447.
"Do you have any ideas?"
-
448.
>Angel shakes her head.
-
449.
>>"No, not really."
-
450.
>"Guys? Y-you didn't leave me here, did you?"
-
451.
"We're coming, Gioia! Just stay there!"
-
452.
>"Okay..."
-
453.
-
454.
>You make a popping sound with your mouth.
-
455.
"Well, I don't have any ideas."
-
456.
>>"Well let's at least not leave her alone."
-
457.
>You watch Angel stand up, as her Stand appears.
-
458.
"What are you doing?"
-
459.
>>"I'm going down."
-
460.
>Her Stand begins punching her rapidly, turning her skin to stone.
-
461.
>>"Geronimo!"
-
462.
>Before you can protest, Angel jumps into the sinkhole.
-
463.
>She plummets down below.
-
464.
>A moment later, you hear both Gioia and Angel.
-
465.
>"You dummy! You almost squished me!"
-
466.
>>"Yeah, but I didn't. Jojo! Come down here!"
-
467.
>You don't know if this is a good idea.
-
468.
>But you don't wanna be up here on your own.
-
469.
>You use Ripple to get some leaves together, and make a sled.
-
470.
>Well, here goes.
-
471.
>You jump.
-
472.
-
473.
>You're Angel.
-
474.
>And you hear Jojo scream.
-
475.
>"Yaaaaaaaaaah!"
-
476.
>You look up, and see her sliding down the side of the hole on a sled.
-
477.
>She slides to a stop near you.
-
478.
>Though she's stopped, she doesn't let go of the sides of her sled.
-
479.
>She's clinging desperately to the sides, huddled on top of it, and her eyes snapped shut.
-
480.
"Jojo?"
-
481.
>She looks up at you out of one eye, and straightens herself.
-
482.
>Her sled immediately turns into a pile of leaves.
-
483.
>She stands, and rolls her shoulders.
-
484.
>"That was fun."
-
485.
>Her words were short and intense.
-
486.
>You don't think she thought it was fun.
-
487.
>>"So now what do we do? We're all down here, what happens now?"
-
488.
"We need a way to make light."
-
489.
>"On it."
-
490.
>You watch Jojo take some of the leaves, and breathe.
-
491.
>Her Ripple runs through the leaves, and begins shining gold.
-
492.
>The light immediately brightens the area.
-
493.
>She displays the ball of leaves, looking proud of herself.
-
494.
>"Pretty cool, right? My instructor taught me this."
-
495.
>For a moment, Gioia looks impressed, before she shrugged.
-
496.
>>"It's alright."
-
497.
>Well, YOU'RE impressed.
-
498.
-
499.
>You look at the now lit up area.
-
500.
>The sinkhole looks to be a huge cave.
-
501.
>>"Look! There's a path!"
-
502.
>She goes to take the path, but you grab her arm.
-
503.
"Not so fast! We gotta stick together."
-
504.
>She looks at you, and nods.
-
505.
>The three of you begin moving through the cave.
-
506.
>You begin to analyze the area around you.
-
507.
"This place isn't as big as a normal cave. It seems pretty straightforward."
-
508.
>Jojo nods.
-
509.
>"We must be near the surface. There's a lot of dead plants around here."
-
510.
>>"Yeah, there's air here, too. Daddy says that it's hard for air to get deep underground."
-
511.
"Maybe there's an exit up ahead?"
-
512.
>The group comes to a large chasm.
-
513.
"...Or a hole."
-
514.
-
515.
>You are Jojo.
-
516.
>You check the chasm.
-
517.
"It's pretty deep. And it's a little way to the surface."
-
518.
>Gioia moans lightly in frustration.
-
519.
>"Well we can't go along the sides. The hole in this chasm is flush with the cliff side."
-
520.
>Angel looks down the chasm curiously.
-
521.
>>"There's another cave on the other side. Maybe we can make a bridge?"
-
522.
>That's not a bad idea.
-
523.
>"With what?"
-
524.
"With this."
-
525.
>You take a breath, and focus your Hamon.
-
526.
>Then you punch the ground.
-
527.
>The dead plants around begin flying toward you.
-
528.
>You start forming them together.
-
529.
>You have just enough plants to create a bridge across the chasm.
-
530.
>>"Awesome, Jojo!"
-
531.
-
532.
>You watch Gioia and Angel go across the bridge.
-
533.
>You're about to go over yourself, but then you remember.
-
534.
>If you take your hands off, the plants will all fall to the ground.
-
535.
>Angel and Gioia are waving you over.
-
536.
>"Hurry up, Jojo!"
-
537.
"I can't come across! The bridge will fall if I move my hands!"
-
538.
>For a moment, they stand there.
-
539.
>Then, Angel calls out.
-
540.
>>"I have an idea! Hold on, Jojo!"
-
541.
>Angel brings out [ROCK YOU], and begins punching the bridge.
-
542.
>"Ayiyiyiyiyiyi!"
-
543.
>Oh, you get it!
-
544.
>The plants are all bound together, so if [ROCK YOU] turns them to stone, then they won't fall away when you move your hands.
-
545.
>Soon enough, Angel makes her way to you.
-
546.
>You release your Hamon, and the bridge stays where it's at.
-
547.
>That was really cool!
-
548.
>You and Angel rejoin Gioia, and then continue your adventure.
-
549.
-
550.
>You've been walking for a whole now.
-
551.
>You're already sick of this cave.
-
552.
"Ugh! I don't wanna be in this place anymore! The walls stink, and it's waaaay too dark."
-
553.
>Gioia looks like she's about to say something, when angel shouts out to you.
-
554.
>>"Look! There's light up ahead!"
-
555.
>The both of you look over, and sure enough, there was sunlight coming out from around the corner!
-
556.
>Finally, you get to be out of this cave!
-
557.
>Laughing, you all start running toward the entrance.
-
558.
>As soon as you come out, you see more forest.
-
559.
>You're about to groan, when Gioia pipes up.
-
560.
>"I know where we are!"
-
561.
>She smiles.
-
562.
>"The park playground is just over this hill! C'mon!"
-
563.
>Gladly, the three of you start moving quickly to the hill.
-
564.
>Then you hear howling from behind you.
-
565.
>You all stop, and Gioia looks angry.
-
566.
>"Oh come on!"
-
567.
-
568.
>Looking back, you see the pack of timber wolves.
-
569.
>They were waiting for you.
-
570.
>At the mouth of the cave.
-
571.
>These puppies are too smart for their own good.
-
572.
>But apparently not smart enough to leave you alone.
-
573.
"Let's wait for them to come to us. We don't wanna get tired running at them."
-
574.
>Angel and Gioia nod, and stand with you.
-
575.
>The wolves come in, charging almost all at once.
-
576.
>But you and your friends stick together.
-
577.
>Gioia throws her balls, smacking one or two at a time.
-
578.
>You hit the ground, sending waves of Ripple at the wolves and disorient them.
-
579.
>Angel uses her Stand on the rest, the ones who manage to get too close.
-
580.
>The fight is going very well, you don't seem to have a problem taking them on.
-
581.
>Your Hamon works, as you find out, if you use it properly.
-
582.
>The wolves get back up if you hit them anywhere except the neck.
-
583.
>You need to let them get in close to hit them there, though.
-
584.
>But with the help of your friends, it's no big deal to hit them where you need to.
-
585.
>Soon enough, there's only a few wolves, and a large pile of sticks.
-
586.
>You grin, stepping forward with your friends, and punching your fist into your hand.
-
587.
>"Let's get this over with already! I wanna go home!"
-
588.
>Gioia looks irritated, as she folds her arms, her balls spinning in her hands.
-
589.
>Angel just stares menacingly at the wolves, her Stand looking ready to fight behind her.
-
590.
>The last few wolves look at each other.
-
591.
>They suddenly howl in unison, causing them to start gravitating towards each other.
-
592.
>The sticks around you start shooting towards the wolves as well.
-
593.
>They start gathering into one mass.
-
594.
>The massive faggot reforms, until it becomes a giant timber wolf.
-
595.
>It snarls at you and your friends.
-
596.
>You look at Angel and Gioia apprehensively.
-
597.
>They have the same thing in their mind, judging by their expressions.
-
598.
>...This might actually be a threat.
-
599.
-
600.
>The big timber wolf growls, snarling at you.
-
601.
>You're kinda not liking this.
-
602.
>Like, a lot.
-
603.
>You actually think you're a bit scared right now.
-
604.
>Before you can say anything, Angel steps forward.
-
605.
>She glares angrily at the timber wolf.
-
606.
>>"Like heck I'm gonna let some big monster hurt my friends! I don't care how big a doggy you are! I'm gonna [ROCK YOU]!"
-
607.
>She suddenly charges forward, her Stand at the ready.
-
608.
>The wolf reaches out, swiping at her with it's paw.
-
609.
>Angel turns to meet the attack, her Stand punching the paw with such strength that it stops in it's tracks.
-
610.
>"Ayiyiyiyiyiyi!"
-
611.
>This is crazy.
-
612.
>Angel's crazy.
-
613.
>A ball suddenly zips up, spinning right into the timber wolf's eye.
-
614.
>It howls in pain, stumbling back.
-
615.
>"You big meanie! You ruined my playdate! If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have gotten lost in the forest! You're gonna pay!"
-
616.
>She chucks her other ball, and it hits the wolf's other eye.
-
617.
>Crud, your friends are giving it their all.
-
618.
>And you're scared...
-
619.
>But that doesn't mean you can't fight too!
-
620.
>You start charging in, using your Ripple to gather plants together.
-
621.
>They form into a very long stick.
-
622.
>You use your stick to pole vault upwards.
-
623.
>The wolf opens its eyes just in time to see you coming at it's head, feet first.
-
624.
"Sunlight Yellow Overdrive!"
-
625.
>You slam into the wolf's head, knocking it back, and causing it to fall on it's side.
-
626.
>You see it stumbling up to it's feet, gathering branches and logs to repair itself.
-
627.
>"Crud. How're we gonna stop it?"
-
628.
"I noticed the ones I hit in the neck earlier didn't get back up."
-
629.
>Angel gives a small gasp of realization.
-
630.
>>"Jojo, you ever played baseball before?"
-
631.
>You look over at her.
-
632.
"Yeah, why?"
-
633.
>>"Just follow my lead."
-
634.
-
635.
>>"Jojo, make a big bat! Gioia, I need you to launch me up in the air!"
-
636.
>"Okay, but why?"
-
637.
>Angel runs and stands over nearby.
-
638.
>>"Just get ready to do it! Jojo, are you ready?"
-
639.
>You look down, and quickly gather enough leaves to make a really large bat.
-
640.
>>"No, bigger than that!"
-
641.
>She looks back at the timber wolf, to see it's back up to its feet.
-
642.
>It shakes the cobwebs out of its head.
-
643.
>>"Hurry!"
-
644.
>You form a bigger bat with all the leaves and plants nearby.
-
645.
>It's as big as you can muster, about as big as the pole.
-
646.
>>"That's good! Gioia, bop its nose! Then launch me high as you can! Jojo, aim for its mouth!"
-
647.
>Wait, what?
-
648.
"But what am I hitting?"
-
649.
>>"You'll see!"
-
650.
>Gioia throws a spinning ball straight at the timber wolf's nose.
-
651.
>It strikes home, and flies back.
-
652.
>It glares angrily.
-
653.
>>"Now!"
-
654.
>Gioia throws both her balls at the ground right under Angel.
-
655.
>The wolf snarls.
-
656.
>The balls spin so fast, it causes Angel to be launched up in the air.
-
657.
>While in the air, she curls into a ball, and her Stand starts punching her body, turning it to stone.
-
658.
>The wolf roars.
-
659.
>Ah! You get it now!
-
660.
"And here's the pitch!"
-
661.
>You swing your giant bat as Angel falls to the ground.
-
662.
>It's a home run, straight at the wolf!
-
663.
>Angel lands dead center in the wolf's throat.
-
664.
>Oh no! He swallowed her!
-
665.
>Wait...
-
666.
>You hear something...
-
667.
>"...yiyiyiyiyiyi!"
-
668.
>The wolf's neck suddenly explodes, and Angel falls to the ground like a rock, along with a shower of sticks.
-
669.
-
670.
>You're Gioia.
-
671.
>And you see Angel falling to the ground.
-
672.
>You and Jojo exchange looks, before you rush over to check on her.
-
673.
>She gets up, looking a little wobbly.
-
674.
>She shakes her head, and smiles at the two of you.
-
675.
>You and Jojo immediately catch her in a hug.
-
676.
>The hug breaks, and you all smile at each other.
-
677.
"We did it! Those timber wolves won't be bothering us again!"
-
678.
>>"GREAT! Now I wanna go home."
-
679.
>You and Angel nod in agreement.
-
680.
>As a group, you walk over to the park.
-
681.
>As you're passing through, you hear a familiar voice.
-
682.
>"Girls! Over here!"
-
683.
>You look over, and all see Angel's brother.
-
684.
>He's waving you over, and has his cellphone in his hand.
-
685.
>You all rush over to him, but he has a stern look on his face.
-
686.
>You wait silently as he calls someone on his phone.
-
687.
>"Zeppeli, it's Erich. You were right. They were at the park. Yeah, I'll bring 'em home, now."
-
688.
>He puts his phone away, and looks over at you.
-
689.
>"You girls should know better than to wander off like that! Your fathers and I were very worried about you! There's dangerous things in this town that could've hurt you, understand?!"
-
690.
"Yes, sir."
-
691.
>"Yes, Ricky."
-
692.
>>"Yes, sir."
-
693.
>More thank you know.
-
694.
>"Good. For what it's worth, I'm glad you girls are alright. Let's go home."
-
695.
>As Angel's brother turns away, you all nod silently at each other in an unspoken agreement.
-
696.
>It's better if the adults don't know what happened.
