Chapter 9: The Hanged Man and The Emperor, the cunts (part 2)
I love Uzui's second wife's facial expressions.
(He has three, oh and that's from kny manga btw)
_________________________________
The five crusaders we're in the street, four of them were crying for their fallen, Abdul.
Hol Horse started to snicker.
"He's got such a strong face, and yet he died in an instant. Well, the end of someone's life is usually a pretty sudden curtain call. It's probably normal to die without being able to say goodbye. It may seem like I'm talking as though I know everything, but..." Polnareff then wiped his tears and started marching towards Hol Horse with anger shown in his ocean eyes.
"Polnareff! Please, don't let him get to you!" Yelled Kakyoin as he stood up.
"
Do you still not understand? Abdul told you not to fight by yourself you fool!" Said Ahe, then Polnareff stopped in his tracks.
"And you ignored that... You wanted revenge, even if it meant dying with our enemy... Mr. Abdul and I followed you because you were worrying him, please... For him..." Said Amaterasu, laying on the ground to restore some energy from all the healing.
"So what am I supposed to do? Tell me, Amaterasu."
"We need to fall back, recover, and plan." She said calmly, not to worry anyone.
"Abdul was cruelly stabbed in the back. My sister was killed without resistance. You want me to hold these regrets inside and run away?!" Said Polnareff, steam came from his body.
"Don't fight when we don't even know how their Stands work yet! Don't fight a battle that will kill you! That's what Mr. Abdul was trying to tell us." Said Kakyoin.
"Hey! Come on, lil Pol Pol." Said Hol Horse.
"Why you..." Polnareff was angry, he clenched his fist as it twitched in furry.
"Polnareff! Slowly come back towards us. We're gonna use that truck to get out of here." Said Ahe as she pointed to the truck.
"Y-you're telling me to hold it in?" Said Polnareff as Kakyoin took Amaterasu and slowly started to head to the truck.
Polnareff started to get angrier as he saw Abdul's corpse in the street with a bullet wound in the head.
"A-all ri-" before he could finish, there was a chuckle.
"Oi, Polnareff." He then looked at the window to see the stand from before! As it laughed maniacally, Polnareff shook in either fear or fury.
"Abdul died for you, I think that means you owe him." The stand started to get closer and closer.
"He might not have died, if not for your foolishness." Said the Hanged Man. "Y-you bastard. Where's your body!"
"Polnareff, calm your tits!" Said Ahe.
"But there's no need to be sad. Actually, you should be happy... Since you'll be together again soon." Then the stand pulled out it's blade.
"You'll die, and then you can be with those two idiots in the next world. Hehehe." The blade started to get closer.
"Your little sister was really cute, Polnareff... Once you're reunited with your sister, you should ask her exactly how I killed her!" Polnareff then yelled.
"Polnareff! Don't let him provoke you! He wants you to attack!" Said Ahe, but then Silver Chariot came out and attacked the window.
"Bastard!" The window shattered into pieces, one shard showed the stand behind Ahe.
"You look nice, just like your friend."
Ahe flinched and then the stand went into a different shard with Polnareff.
"I am within a mirror. Your Stand can't enter a mirror. That's why you can't harm me!" Then he placed a hand on his neck, leaving a hand mark on his actual neck.
He cackled.
"You mad? I bet you're furious." Silver Chariot then went away.
"Hey, Hol Horse. Fire away. Let's put an end to these idiots." "Aya aye sir!"
Then Emperor came out, Ahe ran to the truck as Kakyoin was starting it and sat in the back, holding a passed out Amaterasu (she got really tired from healing).
The two stands began to attack, before a dagger an emeralds got in the way.
"Emerald Splash!" "What?!"
The Emeralds hit Polnareff instead and the dagger hit Hol Horses foot, making him kneel in pain.
"W-what? He shot... Ugh... Polnareff!"
Kakyoin drove the car towards Polnareff and Ahe had her upper body out the window.
Kakyoin grabbed Polnareff and Ahe slapped Hol Horse and retrieved one of her daggers.
"Kakyoin and Ahe, was it? Not bad." Before Hol Horse could shoot, they were already out of range.
"That's out of my Stand's range- agh! That bitch did a number on my foot!" Said Hol Horse, he looked at the window shard that had the Hanged Man, he wasn't there.
"Mr. Centerfold went after them, eh? He must really want to finish them off." Said Hol Horse.
Kakyoin looked at Abdul through the rear view mirror of the car and pulled Ahe back in because she was still out the window.
"S-sorry guys... I-I... I thought I didn't care if I died, so long as I could avenge my sister." Said Polnareff, Ahe and Kakyoin now got serious.
"But I understand now... I understand how Abdul felt. I won't let his feelings go to waste. I'll fight to keep living."
Said Polnareff, Amaterasu started to wake up after hearing him.
"Do... Do you really understand, Polnareff?" She asked with a low voice.
"Yeah." Then- Kakyoin thrusted his elbow at Polnareff's face.
"Pfffft-" Ahe, being the sociopath that she is, is trying not to laugh at his now bleeding nose.
"Take this instead of a handshake as proof that we've made up, Polnareff." Said Kakyoin, tear droplets in his eyes.
"Right. Th-Thank you, Kakyoin."
"When they come after us again, we'll defeat them, all four of us." Said Amaterasu in confidence, everyone nodded.
Then it hit Ahe.
"Uhhh, kak. Do you have a driver's license?" She asked wordily.
"We are going to ignore the law, Keke!" He said with confidence and dumb smirk on his face.
"We are fucked-"
Abdul was laying, bloodied, on the streets floor. He was surrounded by people including Jotaro, Joseph and Caesar.
"Abdul, you..." Said Caesar as his husband bent down to inspect.
Jotaro looked at Abdul's white headband which now had crimson blood.
He clenched his fist.
"At that moment, I'm sure that I stabbed him with the sword. But my strike didn't land. There was no resistance." Said Polnareff, he then took the rear view mirror off and held it.
"Even after breaking the mirror, his Stand, Hanged Man, still attacked from the shards. They even took hold of Ahe in a different shard. He'll attack our reflection from within the mirror. Our Stands can't go inside mirrors... How are we supposed to attack him if he's in some kind of mirror world? Damn it!" Polnareff then threw the mirror out the window.
"Quiet! Amaterasu is taking a nap to recover dammit." Said Ahe in a threatening tone.
"Polnareff, you keep talking about 'imside the mirror' and 'the mirror world', but there is no world inside a mirror (Are you sure about that-). This isn't some fantasy or fairy tale." Said Kakyoin in a hushed voice to not wake the napping girl up.
"What are you talking about?! You saw it, too, didn't you?! You can only see him in the mirror-"
"Shut up! You're being to damn loud!" Whisper yelled Ahe as she flicked Polnareff's forehead.
"Dumbass, but yes. What you see in a mirror is just a reflection created by light." Said Kakyoin while whispering, Ahe now was hugging Amaterasu in case Kakyoin did something stupid on the road cause he don't have a damn license. Just because you work in the mafia, doesn't mean you should ignore the driving license.
"You don't have to tell me that! Listen! I'm talking about what's going on right now. If there are such things as Stands, there could be a mirror world, too!" Whisper yelled Polnareff.
"There isn't." Says Ahe.
"Look, you..."
"I think that fact is what will let us solve the mystery of the Hanged Man. If Stands can defeat other Stands, Then there's still something we don't know about this-" Kakyoin stopped talking once Everyone except Amaterasu, noticed a flash in the car wheel.
Kakyoin was the first to notice the Hanged Man as he got in the cargo of the truck and leapt at them.
He gasped and looked behind him, nothing, then he looked back.
The Stand raised it's fist to the glass behind the girls.
"Guys! He's inside the plating on the steering wheel!"
"What?! Ahe! Wake Amaterasu up, now!"
Before she could say anything, glass went flying everywhere, one shard hit her back as she protected Amaterasu who just woke up.
"Look out!" Then Kakyoin did what Ahe feared, stir the truck that hit a pile of rocks and went flying into the air.
Amaterasu used her vines and used a red flower to give everyone some density for the incoming impact.
They landed on the trucks roof.
No one got any major injuries but were stuck inside the car.
"A-are you guys okay?" Asked Polnareff.
"I-I hit my chest but I'm fine. Thanks to Amaterasu..." The girl in question was at least two meters away from the car holding onto Ahe as they held each other.
Ahe had some blood but she could recover quickly, Amaterasu didn't have any injuries thanks to her friend for protecting her.
Then Polnareff noticed a light, it bounced into many reflective items and went into cars bumper.
The Hanged Man tried to attack Polnareff, but then Silver Chariot came out and sliced the bumper.
"Show off." Ahe whispered under her breath.
"We have to get away from anything that's reflective!" The men then ran behind a rock, Kakyoin picked both females and his them behind the rock too.
Everyone started to gasp for air, Amaterasu let go of Ahe and she did the same.
"Damn it... I got it. I just saw it. He's going from mirror to mirror! He moves by jumping from one reflective surface to another!" Said Polnareff.
"So what your saying is... He traveled all this way by reflecting over and over?" Said Amaterasu.
"Reflecting? Wait, are you saying he's actually light?! The true nature of his stand is light?" Says Kakyoin.
"Kakyoin! He was just in the car's bumper! He's going to reflect off of the car's bumper and into something else. Don't go near anything that's reflective." Says Polnareff.
"Then we should take off anything that reflects off our bodies." Says Ahe as she took out 12 daggers and throw them, she will get them later.
Amaterasu and Ahe can't take off piercings (it hurts like hell when you try to) so they hid them with their foofy hair.
Kakyoin and Polnareff took off their earings, Kakyoin took off the buttons on his uniform.
Ahe took the chains off from her jeans and her chocker.
"Misters and misses, are you guys okay? Want me to bring some medicine or something?" Says the kid, Amaterasu got up and kneeled to the kid to pat his head.
"Look, it's dangerous here. So we need you to leave, alright?" Amaterasu said with a kind smile, then she noticed his eyes.
"Hey you're bleeding." Said the kid to Polnareff, the Hanged Man was in the kids eyes.
"T-That bastard!"
"He's in the kid's eye!" Said Amaterasu as She pulled her back to her.
"Fufufu!" Laughed the Stand, mocking them.
"Hey, kid. Don't look at us." Said Ahe as she ran away with Amaterasu in her hand.
The kid didn't listen and kept staring.
"Stop following me with your eyes! Damn it!"
"Huh? But you're hurt." The kid said, Amaterasu then got behind some rocks with Ahe.
"I'm fine! See? Perfectly fine! So go look over there!" Said Polnareff while shooing the kid away.
"But you're bleeding..." Said the dumbass child.
"Look over there you bra-"
"They're just a kid Polnareff!" Yelled Amaterasu to Polnareff.
The Hanged Man was now behind Polnareff.
"Damn you, Centerfold!"
"What are you going to do? You wouldn't stab this cute little kids eye out with that sword of yours, would you, Polnareff?" Then, the Stand grabbed his neck.
"Polnareff!" They all yelled.
"You can't run anymore. Not unless you stab the kid's eye out! Hahahaha!" Said the Stand, Kakyoin clenched his fist.
"What a coward! This is unforgivable!" Says Kakyoin as the Stand took out it's blade.
"Oi Kakyoin. Don't say things like that in this kind of situation. Listen! In situations like this, you've got to say something more like this before you get your revenge." Everyone stared at Polnareff in confusion, Ahe was bored by now.
"My name is Jean Pierre Polnareff. For my sister's honor, and so that my friend Abdul can rest in peace... I'm going to hurl you into the depths of despair, Centerfold!" Polnareff said as he summoned his Stand.
"Forgive me, kid! Those girls will buy you a Carmel later!" He said and then threw sand at the kids eyes, Amaterasu was ready to throw hands.
"There's sand in my eye!" Then the light stand came out and got sliced by the rapier.
But he was now in Polnareff's eye.
"P-polnareff, he's in your eye..." Said Ahe as she and Amaterasu slowly got out of the rocks.
"I don't really understand the principle, but he essentially moves at the speed of light. A speed that you wouldn't normally be able to see. But I knew that if the kid closed his eyes, the next place he'd move to would be my owb eye." Says Polnareff, Ahe honestly thought it was dumb but smart at the same time.
"I see..."
Hanged man can only exist within the world of reflections.
When one world is about to be destroyed, he has to move to something else that's reflective.
"So... As long as I can read his trajectory, he'll be easy to cut with a sword!" Polnareff said as he slashed the man's chest.
They then heard a shriek of pain coming from a small town near them.
"His real body is over there!" Said Amaterasu as everyone started to run over to the small town.
"You bastard. Finally... Finally!" Said Polnareff as they ran up the staircase, where they saw an injured man.
They stood in front of him.
"We finally meet... Centerfold!" Said Polnareff.
"My name is Jean Pierre Polnareff, and I've seen through your Stand's secret. It's a Stand of light that moves at incredible speed. There's no way we could catch it. But if I knew where it's going to go, and I slash it's trajectory in that moment, I can slash you, too!" Said Polnareff, Ahe looked at the man.
"If Kakyoin and Abdul hadn't shown up, I probably wouldn't figure it out and you would have killed me." Ahe gasped, the man didn't have two right hands.
"Pol! He's not the man with two right hands! That's not Centerfold!" Suddenly- A dagger hit Polnareff in the back, Ahe quickly took it out and Amaterasu started to heal him.
"W-What?!"
"Polnareff! I'm trying to heal you!" Said Amaterasu as she used her green flowers to stop the blood.
"Where's the coward?!" Ahe used said dagger as one of her own since she left them near the car.
"Over here. Hehehe" then one of the ugliest people she has ever seen was shown.
"You fool! I'm Centerfold."
"You..."
"He's just a drifter that happened to be in town. I just used a knife to give him the same wound I have." The drifter grunted in pain.
"
You totally fell for it. Coming to close to him without knowing what I looked like was big mistake! Hahahaha!"
"You bastard!" Said both Ahe and Kakyoin.
"Take this! Emerald spla-"
"Hey, hold on a sec. Take a good look around you." Ahe looked around and saw numerous people, this was bad.
Centerfold then rose his hand up.
"Hey, gather 'round!" Everyone payed attention to him.
These people say they'll give you all money!"
Every single person started to rise up and walked over to the four.
"What?" Said Amaterasu.
"They'll give us money for nothing! Thank you!"
"You have such big hearts!"
"Thank you! Thank you!"
They were all surrounded, Ahe was practically getting crushed due to her being so small.
"Please give us money!" They all said, there weren't any vines nearby not roots for Amaterasu to control either.
"Have you figured out what's going on?" Polnareff then gasped, the hanged man was traveling through their eyes.
"You say you've seen through my Stand? Fools! I've known about my Stand's weakness for quite some time now." Then the Hanged Man slashed Polnareff's bara tiddies (not the tiddies!).
The Hanged Man went to a different persons eye now.
"If there are lots of reflective surfaces so you can't find it's trajectory, it has no weakness!" The stand then slashed
Amaterasu's arm.
"Don't look! Don't stare!" Yelled Amaterasu while holding her arm.
The Stand travel from eye to eye.
"You can't run anymore. What are you going to do? Blow everyone up?" Then he sliced Polnareff all over his body, covered in blood.
"You sacrificed your youth to hunt me down... And you're going to fail before you finish?! Talk about a lonely, boring life. Meanwhile I, Centerfold will continue to have cute girls like your sister around me, and live a fun, happy life! Including those two! Hehehe, come to think of it, your sister was really good at sobbing..." Ahe, Polnareff, and Amaterasu gave him a death glare.
"You can die now."
"W-Why, you..."
"Polnareff, that's not what you say here." Says Kakyoin as Ahe agreed.
"Exactly, when taking revenge you shouldn't say, 'why you'." Says Ahe as Amaterasu continued.
"You say this." She says as Kakyoin continued the statement.
"My name is Noriaki Kakyoin. To avenge our friend, Abdul, and so that the soul of Polnareff's sister and friend may rest in peace," Then, Ahe handed the red head a golden coin, he held the coin up.
"You will pay with your life." He said as everyone paid attention to the coin.
"I'll give this gold coin to whoever picks it up. It's so shiny, you can see your face in it!" Says Kakyoin while showing everyone.
"Now I see what you guys were planning." He then flicked the coin up into the air, Ahe started the attack and began to slyly leave the crowd as best as she can.
"Looks like all their eyes are focused on one point now."
"Yeah. While Ahe goes after Centerfold, we can see the trajectory that the Hanged Man will have to take!" Says Amaterasu.
"Merci beaucoup, Amaterasu, Ahe and Kakyoin!" Polnareff then threw sand at the man with Hanged Man and Ahe was now sprinting to Centerfold.
The man closed his eye, making the Stand go to the coin but was stopped by Silver Chariot's rapier as it sliced his face.
It affected Centerfold as well, Ahe now kicked the murder to ground and made him spit blood.
He crawled near an iron fence with spikes.
"Damn it!" The four went after the man who was now cornered.
"It won't open!" He coward against the fence as he saw the men and women look at him menacingly.
"Looks like you're the one who's good at sobbing now, Centerfold!"
"And what was that about violating us, punk?" Said Amaterasu as she pulled up a middle finger.
"Well, you're about to fall to Hell, sobbing the whole way down. But there's one thing I can't rely on the guardians of Hell to do for me. And that's... To turn you into a pincushion!" Ahe chuckled quietly at the pincushion part.
Silver Chariot then starts to stab the living hell out of Centerfold.
"I've been waiting years for this moment!" He then stabbed his tongue and threw him up into the air, he landed inside the fence.
Ahe went up to the corpse.
"Here, your dagger." She then brutally stabbed him in the chest with it and walked away with a smile.
"Let's leave the rest to King Yama. So this is the true Hanged Man... He was rotten to the core." Said Kakyoin, Polnareff walked away with a scoff.
"I got my revenge."
__________________________
"Hold it!" Said Hol Horse to the four crusaders who just defeated Centerfold.
"I finally caught up with you guys." He then summoned his Stand and pointed it them, but they simply just ignored him.
"Why are you walking so slow? If you're gonna run, run like your lives depend on it. Right, Mr. Centerfold?" He then fired at a jar, Ahe couldn't help but chuckle.
"What's so funny, bitch?"
"I don't know, just the fact that you're talking to a dead man?" She said with a sinester smile, Hol Horse was slightly shocked.
"Mr. Centerfold? Respond damn it!" Then fired at all the windows and shards landed everywhere.
Polnareff stepped on one of the shards, breaking it.
"Hey, are you listening, Mr. Centerfold?!" He began yelling.
Amaterasu leaned over to Ahe and whispered to her ear.
"Wow he really is dumb." She said before standing back up.
"Like I said, a dead man." Said Ahe.
"He's rather busy right now... In Hell that is!" Said Polnareff.
"Oi oi oi oi oi oi! Stop lying! That's nonsense! There's no way you could of beat him! Even I don't stand a chance against the invincible Hanged Man! Man, your jokes suck." He laughed as Ahe started to pull out one of her daggers before Amaterasu slowly puts it back down.
"That piece of shits body is about two or three thousand meters that way. Want to take a look?" Said Polnareff.
"Okay, I will!"
"Hey! You're running away?!" Yelled Amaterasu.
'I-I don't stand a chance! I'm at a total disadvantage by myself! I'll run for now and wait for the next opportunity! I'm the type whose power only shows when I'm paired with someone else. Being #2 is better than #1! That's Hol Horse's philosophy of life!' he thought as he ran for his life.
"What?!" Then- a punch to the face was brought to him by one buff Italian grandpa, it was Caesar.
"Mr. Joestar's! Jotaro!" Said Kakyoin with relief, as Ahe kicked Hol Horse in the stomach screaming profanities as Amaterasu held her back.
"We already know about Abdul." Said Caesar.
"Though it was a simple funeral, his body's been buried." Ahe stopped as Joseph said that and looked at the ground sadly.
"The one who stabbed Mr. Abdul in the back was the man with two right hands, but the cause of death was Hol Horse's bullet. What shall we do with him?" Said Kakyoin.
"Let me kick him harder damn it!" Said Ahe.
Polnareff stopped her and walked up to the cowboy.
"Death!" He yelled as he summoned Silver Chariot before getting thrown to the ground by a girl.
"Please run, Sir Hol Horse!" Everyone was dumbfounded, like, da fuq?
"What's with this woman?!"
"I don't know what's going on, but I'm always thinking of you Hol Horse! That is my reason to live! Please run! Hurry!"
"You bitch! Let me go!! What are you thinking?! Jotaro, Kakyoin, Ahe! Don't let him get away!" Said Polnareff as Ahe sighed.
"Too late." Said the taller one Hol Horse was now on a horse.
"Well said, baby! I'll gladly accept your feelings and keep on living! I'm running away because I love you, baby! Forever!" He said as he rode off.
"Come back here!" Polnareff got up while dragging the lady with him.
"Polnareff, that woman was just another one he was using. And he no longer has any intention of fighting. We have to deal with him." Caesar said as Joseph bandaged the hurting woman.
"Abdul is gone. But we have to look forward." Said Amaterasu, as Joseph bandaged the woman, some blood fell on his skin.
"We've been on this trip for fifteen days already." Said Joseph.
'Huh, my birthday is in two days. This is gonna be one hell of a 17th birthday.' Thought Amaterasu.
"Well, I guess it can't be helped." Said Polnareff.
"All right! Let's resume our trip to Egypt. Listen up! In order to defeat DIO, our hearts have to be as one. We can't go off on our own! That's when he'll come after us. Got it?" Everyone chuckled and nodded.
"Let's get a move on then." Said Ahe as she started to walk being next to Amaterasu.
"Good grief."
