A New Bizarre Adventure

Chapter 2: Incognito Part 2

Kaze loomed over Jotaro, who,at the moment, could have sworn he saw the kanji for "Menacing" hovering in the air around him. "Pitiful, foolish weakling," Kaze taunted as Jotaro let out the occasional grunt of pain. "Not even your Star Platinum's The World can let you escape this little predicament you've gotten yourself into. If only you didn't get involved with that little Joestar over there. Such a pity."

Alex grabbed a napkin and shoved it in his mouth as if he needed something to bite. Kaze let out an amused snicker. "See," he continued. "Look at the self-proclaimed 'mighty Alexander Joestar' now. Grovelling under my feet, practically begging for mercy."

Jotaro lifted up a hand to attempt another blow with Star Platinum, but Kaze kicked it out of the air and slammed his foot on top of it. He moved his foot back and forth as Jotaro writhed in agony. "It's useless, you know," he whispered with a hint of melancholy in his voice. "Useless, useless. Muda Muda Muda."

Jotaro's head practically exploded at the mere mention of those words. "D-Dio.." he croaked. Kaze cocked his head to the side in confusion. "Are you mocking me?" he questioned. "Is that an insult?"

"I figured out your weakness, you bastard."

Kaze whipped around to see Alex propping himself up on a table, obviously using a vast amount of strength to do so. "Your weakness," he continued, "it's your emotions. You change between them too often, switching from cockiness and pity to rage and fury."

Kaze's eyebrows furrowed. His left eye began to twitch. "And so," the Joestar continued, "right about now, you'll--"

"I'VE HEARD ENOUGH!" Kaze bellowed, lunging at the weakened Joestar. "...get mad," Alex finished, drawing back his left hand.

Kaze realized his mistake too late as Overkill drove two fingers into Kaze's temple and then completed the fist. The attacker froze in place, maintaining his enraged expression. Alex looked down at the man, frozen in time. The boy's face was covered in shadows, making it all the more ominous. "Yoi Kami," he sighed, looking around the airport for any other signs of an attack from Incognito. Neither the Stand nor any of it's projectiles were anywhere to be seen. Alex let his shoulders slouch as he fell back on his knees. "That was... too... close."

The Joestar took long, deep breaths in and out as Jotaro managed to stand. He looked over in the direction of Kaze. "Freezing him like this is rather anticlimactic," he pointed out, "but it's better than taking our chances with the guy."

Just as Jotaro began to ease himself back into a chair, he heard a slight whirring sound above him. He glanced up to see a multitude of the purple drills hovering by the ceiling, all pointed in his direction. Jotaro stared, hopelessly as the spikes rocketed down from the ceiling and slammed into him. Or at least, they would have, had Jotaro not activated Star Platinum's The World. Jotaro continued to look at them, wasting precious seconds of stopped time. Finally, he managed a slight roll off the chair and onto the floor, away from the weapons. As time resumed, the spines dug into the ground where Jotaro used to be. He looked up at Alex yet again. "Kaze's... Kaze's Stand!" he yelled. "Alex, it's a special type of Stand that can act of its own accord even when the user is decommissioned! Be carefu--"

Jotaro never got to finish the sentence. Underneath him, the ground ruptured and a flurry of magenta needles shot Jotaro up to the ceiling, pinning him there. Alex stared up in horror as Incognito appeared in front of Jotaro. "You little shit," Incognito scowled. "I told you not to get involved but you had to go and reveal one of my little secrets anyways."

Jotaro summoned Star Platinum and threw a flurry of punches, but Incognito moved out of his range quickly. The Stand tutted, which Jotaro didn't even think was possible. "You think you're in any position to deal damage to me?" he questioned. "Pathetic. You humans confuse the hell out of me."
