Polnareff wandered into the back room, you could hear him talking to the old woman. You and Jotaro began to return upstairs, just reaching the upper landing, when you heard a screech coming from where Polnareff was. Not long after you felt a familiar stand presence, knowing who it was after being familiar with it for so long.

"Polnareff summoned Chariot," you relay to Jotaro. "We have to help him."

The two of you quickly make your way back down.

When you got down, there was no sight of Polnareff or the elderly woman anywhere.

It was quiet, too quiet.

The aura in the hotel was suffocating.

"They're fighting somewhere, but where?"

Jotaro kicks open a door, leading to a lounge style area. The both of you enter the room.

You look behind you to ensure there's no one there, and when you turn around you hear the voice of the hotel owner.

"Oh!" She exclaims, "you two startled me. You must learn manners, knocking is a good start."

Jotaro scoffs.

"We're looking for our friend," he says. "We knocked, maybe you just didn't hear."

"Occupied, perchance," you add. "I wonder, though, with what?"

She took a moment before responding.

"Well, of course I know where he is, Jotaro, (Y/N). We were just having a lovely chat!"

This woman was quite clearly oblivious to what you both left in the guestbook.

Jotaro questions, "Oh?"

His tone was cocky, extremely confident. She didn't seem to pick upon it.

"Yes," she responds. "He's over in the bathroom, however, he's been in there for some time."

You looked skeptically. She clearly has a plan to get the both of you through that door. If it takes falling into her plan to expose and defeat her, that's what you'll do.

"Sounds just like him," you feign a sigh. "Right? We should go check on him."

"Yeah, I think we should."

You walk behind him and follow him to the door.

"Oh, yeah," you say. "I think we have some questions for you."

Planning to catch her in the act of something, the two of you turn to find her laying on the ground, a pair of scissors in front of her.

Was she planning on stabbing you? None of these people were too smart...

She called both of you by name, she clearly knows who you are.

If Hol Horse knew of your abilities in India, Enyaba would definitely know them in Pakistan. It was certainly a dumb move, trying to stab you of all people.
