"What the hell? You're in the middle of being eaten alive, dumbass! My stand's got a hold of you that you can't escape, and you say you'll run away?" The man exclaimed, almost amused by Jotaro's actions. "When I said run away, I meant into the water!" Jotaro yelled. Star Platinum grabbed onto the yellow goop and (Y/N) clung onto Jotaro's back as the three plunged into the water below. 

Star Platinum reached around the man and covered his face with the slime to suffocate them, "I- I can't breathe!" The man struggled and withdrew his stand, swimming up to the surface and gasping for air. Jotaro and (Y/N) swam up behind the man, both breathing heavily. 

"You let your stand's guard down to take a breath, didn't you?  Your stand may be invincible but if I butcher you, your stand dies too. Do you understand?" Jotaro asked, (Y/N)'s stand, Serene Blue, emerged from the water and grabbed onto the man's shoulders, holding him in place.  

"Listen, i've had enough of that cocky-ass mouth of yours. You should know i'm the type of guy that takes these things to heart." Jotaro said, pulling his fist up and striking the man's cheek, his teeth falling out, then Jotaro bashed in the man's face with his elbow. (Y/N) withdrew Serene Blue and let the man fly back, splashing into the water, "Please, stop! I can't fight anymore! I'm through! My nose is completely shattered, they're gonna have to wire my jaw shut too. Dio paid me to do this, I didn't plan on risking my life to go after you guys! There! See!" The man whimpered, pulling his stand off Jotaro. 

"We want something from you." Jotaro said, glaring down at the man. (Y/N) gave Jotaro an uneasy look, the man looked apologetic and ready to surrender but he didn't seem like the most trustworthy person. "The other stand users, I want all the information you have on them." He said, crossing his arms. 

"That's the one thing I can't talk about! I do have some pride you know... I cant just rat them out!" The man said with a distressed look on his face. "I understand, thats an honorable decision." (Y/N) said giving Jotaro a nod. He put his fist above the man's head, ready to slam his hand down when the man blurted out, "Oh! I remember now! Death, The Empress, The Hanged Man, and The Emperor are all after you!" He yelled, shielding his face with his hand. 

"You still didn't answer the question. What can they do?" (Y/N) asked, Jotaro's fist at the ready. "I don't know." The man stuttered, terrified, "N-No! I'm being honest! I really dont know! Stand users never reveal their abilities to eachother. If they did, they'd be outright exposing their weaknesses. But I do know that some witch taught Dio about stands. Her son is one of the four coming after you. His name is J. Giel, he's unmistakable because of his two right hands and his card is The Hanged Man. He's the one that killed Polnareff's sister, right? Apparently, he uses a mirror. I haven't seen it but i've heard his stand is unbeatable. Polnareff is dead meat." The man said, swimming up to a platform and resting on it. 

"Hey guys, I just noticed something. Looks like i've still got some luck on my side. See that drain over there? The one with all the blue crawdads?" The man smirked with a chuckle. The drain cover popped off and the screws fell out, yellow goop seeping through the hole. 

"A manhole..." Jotaro thought. The stand was going into the manhole and coming out through the drain, giving it a pathway to eat the crawdads. "I knew that asshole had something up his sleeve." (Y/N) internally groaned. The stand sprayed out the drain, covering the teens in the burning slime. 

The man let out a hearty laugh, "That teeny little drain is hooked into this manhole right beside me! Now you can't attack me! I guess what I told you about the man with two right hands will go to waste! Man, am I lucky!" He yelled, slamming Jotaro and (Y/N) into the wall with the drain. 

"Yare yare. When you're focused on everything else, it's difficult to observe yourself. You don't get it. Your luck finally ran out. What a shame, you could've got away with just a broken nose. Now you'll be lucky if your have any bones left to break!" Jotaro yelled, giving (Y/N) a nod. 

Serene Blue had been wrapping a small stream of water around the mans feet, she pulled the string of water down, making the man fall flat on his face. Star Platinum used this chance to punch the water into the drain, sending the man fly into the air. 

The manhole cover slammed into his face and he got flung into the cold water, Jotaro grabbed him and pulled him up by his hair, "I was only kidding, Mr. Jotaro and Ms. (Y/N)! I swear, I was just messing with you! Just a little prank! C'mon, don't tell me you took that to heart? You're not thinking of punching me anymore, are you?" The man said nervously, playfully swinging his arms around. 

"I've got nothing else to say to you. You're way too pathetic... I'm done wasting my breath." Jotaro said, Star Platinum coming out and sending out a barrage of punches. If the man wasn't already almost dead, he sure is now. 

They both breathed out a small sigh of relief. "C'mon, lets head back to the hotel, Jotaro. Jiji is probably worried sick." (Y/N) sighed, stretching her back with a satisfying pop. Jotaro nodded and helped (Y/N) out of the water, walking over to the nearest bus station to get back to the hotel.
