The Ludicrous Escapade Pt.3

Rock of No Price

"I'm not a kid, you know." Was the first thing Narancia said in response to what just happened. "I'm twenty seven. That's older than you." Even though he still looked the same as when he was seventeen. He pretty much acted the same, too.

You took a deep breath as your running came to a stop, giving a brief introduction. "This is Narancia, Jolyne. He's also my Stand. Um, there's more of them."

Jolyne looked between you and the Ghirga, comparing wounds. "I thought he said the injuries to Stands reflect on their users? You don't seem hurt at all, (Y/N)." Her humanoid clump of string donned a sweet pair of green shades and clutched Goo Goo Dolls tightly in one hand as the Cujoh spoke with you. Her head was still caught by the metal bar.

"Ah, well..." You started to go with the whole 'It's just a part of my Stand ability' thing, but Narancia was too much of a talker.

"That's because she gained these regenerative abilities once she lost her humanity. Kars told me she even had her head chopped off a few times and she was able to actually grow it back or just reattach it!" He was excited to start spilling all the beans to Jolyne, but you felt he was getting a bit ahead of himself. You didn't want to overload her with all this new information.

"Hah... you're funny." She turned to you, not even believing Narancia in the first place, "It's fine if you don't want to tell me the truth just yet. But do you think you could help with this?" She tugged at the metal bar.

Narancia planted his feet on the wall and tried tugging with all his might to no avail. "Damn it! I'm sure the others would be strong enough to do this..." He started sulking as he floated back over to your side. He only had the strength of a human and couldn't really compare to the likes of Pillar Men and vampires.

"Don't worry about it. I'll just get Gwess to let me out of here." Jolyne had her Stand squeeze Goo Goo Dolls tighter, giving a shake with her fist, "Scream you piece of shit! Call for your user and get my neck out of this steel pole!"

"I didn't expect..." Gwess shambled down the hall, blood dripping down her face. She was leaning on the wall just to try and stay standing. "That the two of you... would have abilities, too..."

Narancia put his fists up, as if ready to start boxing. He knew he wasn't the strongest, and had never actually won against the others, but he had learned a few tricks from sparring with the guys in the void room. Jolyne was also ready to punch Gwess into next month.

"W-Wait!!!" Shrieked Gwess. "I know what you want! So stop squeezing my Goo Goo Dolls so tightly! You're breaking my fucking teeth!"

"Your unrealistic prison break plan is finished. So shrink my body enough for me to get free and don't try anything funny!" Jolyne held Gwess' Stand threateningly.

"Okay! Okay!" Gwess held her hand out, trying to calm the Cujoh down. "You can sleep on the bottom bunk, too... and I'll give you my portion of dinner... Just please... I know a lot happened between us, but I don't want you to hate me! I'd like you to use your mouse voice once in a while, though, it's so cute!"

"Just hurry it up!" Jolyne was getting impatient. And the next second, she shrunk a tiny bit and slipped right on out of the bar before being returned to her normal size. She was bleeding a fair amount, and leaned on you to keep her self upright.

"Now give us the pendent." You held your hand out, encouraging her to place it there. "Although, the stone inside is what's most important. So I want you to open it and show me that it's still inside."

"Okay, I'll hand it over!" She rummaged around in her pockets, "Just please let my Goo Goo Dolls go. I don't want you hating on me." She opened the pendent to show that the arrow chunk was still there. She started to place it in your hand, but let go too early, making it clank against the ground. "Oh, sorry..."
