Pov: Y/N

- That makes two...

- How?! How is it possible?!- I rushed towards the table and grabbed the glass to take a closer look at it. And then I noticed something attached to its bottom. When I poured out the alcohol from the glass, I saw that there's melted chocolate on it.- You bastard! You were cheating again!

- As I said before. It's not cheating if you're not being caught, dear Y/N.

I almost couldn't control my anger anymore and my Stand materialised by my side against my will. November Rain pulled out her sword, ready to attack.

- Y/N, calm down!- Avdol shouted at me, Magician's Red quickly appeared in front of him, grabbing my Stand tightly.- If you'll hurt him then we'll lose the last chance to save them!

I looked at the enemy with furious gaze, panting slightly as I'm trying to keep control over my anger, which is becoming very hard. I don't like it when someone is playing unfairly, especially when it's hurting others.

I tried to punch him with my fist, but Jotaro grabbed my arm, turning me around so that I have to face him.

- Calm down. We'll save them, but you have to keep your cool.- He spoke firmly, yet gently, his hands moving up to cup my cheeks as he saw struggling in my gaze.

- Jotaro, I think she should drink something. She's getting pale.- Mr. Zeppeli spoke, and Jotaro nodded slightly.

- It's due to today's emotions...- He frowned and pulled out a chair for me to sit on, before Avdol brought me a glass of cool water.

I took a small sip, trying to regain control over my emotions. I rubbed the side of my face with my hand, knowing I have to keep being strong at least for a while longer.

- Let her cool down. But the rest of you can keep trying to save your friends. Or do you want to give up and just leave them now?- D'Arby asked, smirking at us mockingly. I looked back up at him and was about to say something, but Avdol placed a hand on my shoulder.

- Fine. D'Arby, prepare your trump card. We'll finish this with poker!- Jotaro said confidently, pointing his index finger at the enemy.

- J-Jotaro!

- How amusing! I happen to be a bona fide poker champion!- D'Arby exclaimed, his face showing genuine amusement.

- P-Poker?! Jotaro, please don't do it! He was able to outsmart Mr. Joestar! It's not a good idea!- I shouted, feeling my heart beating faster in worry, my face getting even more pale.

- I know. He's not violent, but he's definitely the most dangerous Stand user we've encountered so far. Still... I can't afford not to try!

I leaned back in the chair, putting my fingers on my lower lip nervously. I'm just afraid that Jotaro will lose as well and one part of me wants to stop him and just give up already, but another is telling me to just trust him.

- Jotaro... I believe you know what you're doing...- I spoke quietly, looking up at him, my expression a bit calmer now.

- He's Joseph's grandson so I'm sure he's as cunning as his grandfather.- Mr. Zeppeli said, somehow seeming to be very calm about the whole situation.

I nodded to him one more time, before he sat down at the table with D'Arby. I squeezed the glass of water nervously, while Avdol kept his hand on my shoulder reassuringly.

- Before we start the game, I'd like to test something. Shuffle up those cards.- Jotaro said sternly, pointing at the deck laying on the table. D'Arby nodded and did as has said at an expert pace.
