Teresa: Faster, JoJo.

Joanne: I know. She's not going to get away from us.

Teresa: Here, put these in. I'm going to see if I can set up a road block of some kind and slow her down.

Joanne: You could end up causing more damage in this open space. Besides, if she can slow down time, your plan would back fire on us. I think I've come up with an idea though.

Teresa: Lay it on me.

Joanne: It's safe to say that at this distance, we're safe from her stand which means it doesn't have alot of range to work with.

Teresa: Alright, and?

Joanne: Judging by its appearance, I'd say that it has a punching range of 2 to 3 meters like yours and mine, but it's main ability must activate when people are close to her or within a certain range. The way I see it, if she can't move, she won't be able to counter attack even if she can activate her stands ability.

Teresa: So what you're saying is we have to stop her in a way that won't physically harm her or destroy property.

Joanne: Exactly. Cleo is a crafty one from what I can tell, but she isn't unbeatable. If I could just find the perfect range to attack, we can catch her off guard and do what we came to do.

Teresa: Well then, let's do it.

*In Shattuck at the medical school branch of Harvard, Maxine and Jerome arrive at the front door looking for their target.*

Maxine: Leo Abernathy. Stand Name: Body Breakdown. Doesn't say what it can do though.

Jerome: Any idea of how to approach this or how dangerous it can be?

Maxine: No, but I can only assume it's bad by the name. Only med students are allowed past this point so how will we get in?

*Jerome reaches into his pocket and uses his key card to open the door.*

Jerome: Come on, Abernathy is the type to prepare his stuff before classes actually start in the morning. He's also the last one to leave, so nows the time to act.

Maxine: Right...

*Back in town, Joanne and Teresa are hot on Cleo's trail coming up on near misses and obstacles blocking their path.*

Teresa: Can't you go any faster!?

Joanne: Five arrows is my limit, that's already 600MPH

Teresa: What about that thing from earlier when you had those arrows on your body?

Joanne: What are you talking about?

Teresa: Seriously? Your body was covered in arrows and you moved like incredibly fast. Like I blinked and you were all up in Cleo's grill.

Joanne: Dude, I've only been able to go this fast since I first got my stand ability.

Teresa: What was that like years ago?

Joanne: I can't remember all to well. Look, that's not the problem...hey, wait. She's just standing there.

Teresa: Slow down.

*Joanne forms reverse panels with single arrows on them to slow herself down before landing on a stop panel. The panels disappears.*

Joanne: Her stand ability. Do you think it's active?

Cleo: No, it's not...

Teresa: Cleo, what's wrong?

Cleo: ...

Teresa: Cleo?

Cleo: I've been had..

Joanne: What do you mean?
