Greetings everyone, muk here with the next chapter of Makoto's Bizarre Adventure. Now this one took a while because I wasn't sure which one of my chapter ideas I wanted to do. I have them planned out, it's just the order of these that I have trouble with. But in the end I finally decided with one and as such, here we are.

Monokuma: You are really putting too much time into this story. What about your other stories?

I am actually going to go back to those after this chapter. I have been putting a lot of time into this one and want to work on my other ones. But that does not mean I am stopping this, once I'm finished updating my other stories I will get back to this one.

Monokuma: So long as you don't forget about them.

Why are you concerned about my other stories?

Monokuma: I'm not, I just enjoy watching the despair of the readers of this story as they wait forever for a new chapter.

Ah, of course. Anyways, without further ado, enjoy.

Another day at Hope's Peak has begun for Class 78 as they all gathered in their classroom. Well, all except one particular student, which was noticed by Leon shortly after walking in, "Hey has anyone seen Makoto?"

"Yeah now that you mention it, he's usually here by now," Sayaka noted, "Wonder where he is?"

"Perhaps Mr. Naegi is merely running late," Hifumi suggested.

"Wouldn't be the first time," Hiro added.

"Actually Makoto told me that he wouldn't be in class today because he was going to the hospital," Kyoko answered, "He said that he was finally getting that cast of his off."

"Oh, bet he's super excited about that," Hina smiled.

"About time too, his constant complaining about it was getting on my nerves," Byakuya said.

"You know, there's something I just realized," Mondo said, "Makoto never actually said how his arm got broken. When I found him the night when it happened, he was just left in an alleyway all beat up, but what do you think happened to him?"

"Now that you mention it, Makoto has been very secretive about that incident," Ishimaru noted, placing a hand on his chin in thought, "What could have possibly gone down that night?"

"Did he perhaps tell you what had transpired that night Kyoko?" Celestia asked.

"Unfortunately, Makoto has yet to tell me what happened to him," Kyoko answered. It was a lie however, she knew about Makoto's encounter with the mastermind's Stand. Of course she couldn't tell everyone else that, so saying that she didn't know was the best option she could do.

"Interesting, to not even tell you," Byakuya noted in intriguiance, "What could he possibly be hiding?"

"Guys come on, this is Makoto we're talking about," Hina said, "You're all making it sound like he's a bad person when we all know he's as nice as a person can be."

"Yeah Hina's right," Leon agreed, "I'm sure it's no big deal or anything, what's the worse he could possibly hide." He hoped that would end the discussion, as Leon didn't want any of them to think anything bad of Makoto. It's times like this where keeping the whole Stand thing a secret was hard.

Eventually the whole discussion about Makoto soon died down, especially when the classroom door was kicked open, silencing everybody as a certain fashionista walked in, "Yo what up bitches, guess who's back!"

"Junko watch your language, that is no way a student of Hope's Peak should speak!" Taka immediately reprimanded, "And also you are not allowed to just kick open the door, that would be damage of school property!"

"Not even a minute back and you're already screaming at me Taka," Junko smiled as she walked over to her desk, "Man it's good to be back."

"How was the photo shoot Junko?" Sayaka asked curious.

"Eh, it was ok," Junko answered, "Just the basic stuff you know. Although there were a few memorable and interesting shots we took, if you know what I mean." She winked when she said that last part.

"You actually agreed to those kinds of photos?" Chihiro asked.

"Who am I to deny the public this sexy body," Junko said gleefully, "Seeing as you guys are my classmates, I can show them to you all for free if you want?"

"I'll pass thanks," Mondo said without batting an eye.

"Suit yourself," Junko said, before noticing the absence of someone, "Hey where's the unlucky luckster at?"

"Makoto's at the hospital, he's getting his cast removed today," Mukuro informed.

"Ah, well guess he has to wait a bit before being graced by my presence," Junko said.

"I'm sure he'll be looking forward to that," Kyoko said sarcastically.

"Oh man, it feels good to be out of that cast!" Makoto cheered as he walked out of the hospital. Once the doctors had checked to see if his arm was fully healed, they immediately removed his cast much to his enjoyment. He was really getting annoyed at how much of a hindrance it was and he was more than happy to be rid of it.

Makoto looked down at his right arm, flexing it now that it was free. He smiled as he threw a few punches with it in the air, "So glad that thing isn't holding me back anymore."

"Wonder what I should do now since I said I wasn't going to class today," Makoto questioned himself, "I guess maybe just go around the city."

"How about spending some time with an old friend?"

Makoto's eyes widened as he recognised the voice that just spoke. He quickly turned to where it came from and was met with none other than Joseph Joestar himself, "Mr. Joestar?"

The old man couldn't help but smile when Makoto recognised him, "Been a while Makoto, how's it been?"

"Just fine," Makoto responded as he shook hands with Joseph, "What are you doing here? I thought you went back to New York."

"I'll be happy to explain that, but first we should catch up over something to eat," Joseph answered, "I haven't heard from you since we spoke on the phone a few weeks ago. I want to know how things have been lately for you."

"Oh, sure I'm cool with that," Makoto agreed.

"Excellent," Joseph said as he and Makoto headed out to eat, "We have a lot to talk about Makoto."

Once class had ended for them Class 78 went off to do their own thing. For Leon, it was him being in the gymnasium as he threw baseballs at various targets he set up on his own. Lately he's been spending time here on, under the excuse that he was just practicing. However, that was not an accepted excuse for his Stand, who was watching idly as Leon kept hitting his targets.

"Remind me again why you're doing this?" Perfect Game asked as he tuned his guitar.

"Like I said, just practicing my pitching is all," Leon answered as he threw a baseball, knocking down a cone he used as a target.

"Yeah right, we both know you're an ace at baseball and you never practiced once," Perfect Game responded, "So how about you just admit the real reason for this."

"What's it to you?" Leon asked.

"What, I can't be concerned for my user?" Perfect Game asked, "Even if you don't tell me, I have a good feeling on what it is."

"Oh yeah?" Leon questioned as he hit another target, "What's that?"

"You're still upset about being used and you're pushing yourself to get better to be more useful against the mastermind," Perfect Game said, making Leon freeze for a moment, "Got it in one go huh?"

"Shut up," Leon said as he resumed his pitching, "You just don't get it, I was used as a tool to try and kill my friends, how else am I supposed to feel about that besides upset?"

"Hey I don't blame you, I would be upset too if I was in your shoes," Perfect Game said.

"Doesn't help that you didn't do anything to stop me," Leon said annoyed.

"Like I said, we just do what our users say, no ifs and or buts about it," the Stand reminded.

"Whatever man," Leon said as he prepared to throw another ball at a target, "I need to get better, Makoto can't be the only one defending us. I need to protect my friends as well."

"Like that Sayaka girl you're totally crushing on?"

Perfect Game's comment caused Leon to be caught off guard and his pitch was off from the target. Perfect Game strum its guitar and the ball changed course and managed to hit the target, "You're welcome."

"The hell is wrong with you?!" Leon exclaimed angrily with a red face, "You can't just blurt out random things like that!"

"What does it matter, there's no one else in here with us," Perfect Game said, "And even so, unless they were a Stand user, they can't hear me."

"St-still, you can't just say that!" Leon retorted.

"Geez, who knew you got flustered so easily," Perfect Game smirked.

"Shut up," Leon said annoyed, "You know what, I'm done here. I'm heading back to the dorms." As he said that, Perfect Game dissipated as Leon exited the gymnasium. As he passed by the trophy case, he noticed Hifumi staring at the trophies as he absentmindedly drew in an art book he had out.

"Yo Hifumi, what you up too?" Leon asked.

"Ah Mr. Kuwata, I didn't expect to meet you here," Hifumi answered, "Right now I am just working on my drawing skills for my next work."

"How is drawing the trophy case helping with that?" Leon asked confused.

"I have found that the best way to improve drawing is to draw real objects as accurately as possible," Hifumi answered as he straightened his glasses, "By doing so it allows me to draw more easily for my creations."

"Huh, I suppose that makes sense," Leon said.

"Yes, but I have always found drawing actual people to be a more difficult task. Actually, I have a favor to ask of you," Hifumi requested, "If you don't mind, I was hoping I could use you to aid me in this."

"So what, you want me to pose or something and you just draw me?" Leon asked, receiving a nod from Hifumi, "Eh I don't see why not, knock yourself out dude."

As Hifumi turned to an empty page on his art book, Leon crossed his arms and smirked pridefully as Hifumi started to draw. After a minute had passed, Perfect Game suddenly appeared and posed as well, "Make sure to get my good side."

"What are you doing?" Leon whispered annoyed.

"What, I can't join in on this?" Perfect Game asked.

"Why even bother, he can't even see you," Leon retorted.

"Actually I can," Hifumi answered, not looking up from his artbook as he continued drawing.

"Wait what?" Leon asked in shock.

"I can see your Stand," Hifumi responded, "I'll be sure to include him in this as well."

"I got a bad feeling bro," Perfect Game said.

"Hifumi wait, you're a Stand user too?" Leon asked.

"Why of course, but let's ask a more important question," Hifumi said as he stopped drawing, "How do you think I did on this drawing?"

Hifumi turned his artbook and showed Leon the drawing, which included a completely accurate representation of him and the pose he did. Right beside him was a drawing of Perfect Game, which confirmed that Hifumi could see the Stand. However, before he could ask about this the artbook started to glow brightly, blinding Leon as he covered his eyes. As the light died down, both Leon and Perfect Game were nowhere to be seen.

Hifumi looked down at the drawing and smiled, "Ah yes, this is truly some Fine Art."

After Makoto and Joseph met up at the hospital, they ended up at a restaurant per Joseph's request. "Mmm, good to know that Japan has some killer burgers," Joseph said as he took a bite out of a hamburger that he ordered.

"So Mr. Joestar, what brings you back to Japan?" Makoto asked, eating some fries.

"Two reasons really," Joseph answered after swallowing the food in his mouth, "One, I wanted to check up on how things are going with you and your friend. Has her Stand developed yet?"

"Oh yeah I never told you about that, but yeah Kyoko has her Stand now," Makoto answered, "Its name is Mystery Girl, it allows Kyoko to see even the tiniest little details, which makes it perfect for a detective like her."

"Interesting, it seems she has already grown accustomed to Stands," Joseph noted.

"Yeah she has," Makoto said before grimmicing a bit, "But lately, my other classmates have been getting Stands as well. You were right, the person who had the arrow is awakening Stands from them, and then controlling them to attack us against their will."

"That is a problem," Joseph said, "Which brings me to the second reason why I'm here. The Speedwagon Foundation informed me about what had happened and how the arrow got stolen."

"It was my fault," Makoto said, "I tried to stop them, but their Stand was too much for me and they got away with the arrow."

"Don't beat yourself up over it too much, clearly they had more experience with their Stand than you do," Joseph assured, "But anyways, because of that the Foundation sent me over here to help find the arrow."

"Really, well that's great to hear," Makoto said happily before remembering something, "Hold on, I didn't ask this last time but what makes that arrow special, how is it able to awaken Stands?"

"In order to explain that, I need to explain to you a journey I went on because of the arrow," Joseph said, "It all started a few years ago, when my Stand first awakened. In order to get a better grasp of it I seeked out a fortune teller to learn more and I learned how I got Hermit Purple. You see Makoto before I was born, my grandfather had dealt with a vampire named Dio Brando."

"Wait a second, a vampire?" Makoto questioned, "You can't be serious right now?"

"You have a manifestation of your spirit in your pocket that can affect your luck and you think vampires are out of the question?" Joseph asked with a raised brow, "Now you'll think about my answer before saying, 'Ok good point, continue.'"

"... ok good point, continue," Makoto said before gasping in surprise, "Ok you seriously need to teach me how to do that."

"Trade secret my dear boy," Joseph smirked, "Anyways, while my grandfather managed to defeat Dio, Dio actually took over his body during his honeymoon with my grandmother. While she managed to escape, Dio and my grandfather's body were thought to have been lost in the sea. But he eventually resurfaced and gathered a few subordinates, one of which had an arrow. They used it on Dio which awoke his Stand, but because he had my grandfather's body it somehow also awakened Stands in the rest of my family."

"So because your grandfather's body got hit with an arrow, everyone on his side of the family got a Stand?" Makoto questioned.

"Exactly, and while most of use were able to use our Stands no problem, that couldn't be the same for my daughter," Joseph grimaced, "She didn't have the spirit like me and my grandson, and as such her Stand was slowly killing her. So to save her me, my grandson, and some friends ventured out to Egypt to find Dio and kill him. There were six of us in total, and only three of us survived the journey."

"Oh, I'm sorry for your loss Mr. Joestar," Makoto said.

"I almost joined them when Dio drained my blood, but luckily my grandson, Jotaro, managed to kill Dio and transfer that blood to my body, reviving me," Joseph continued, "We later learned about the arrow he used to get his Stand, and we sought out to find it. Which was how we learned more about them."

"It turns out the arrows originated from a meteorite that crashed into Earth 50,000 years ago. When researchers discovered the meteorite, two of them contracted a strange virus from the meteorite," Joseph continued, "While both of them died, one of them had actually shot lightning out of his fingers."

"Wait, does that mean…" Makoto realized before Joseph finished for him.

"Yes, the virus in the meteor is responsible for Stands. Anyone who contracts it and survives is gifted with a Stand," Joseph finished, "Later on, someone actually constructed six arrows from the meteorite, which is how they came to be. When we found out about this, we sought out to find and collect the arrows before they could be used for dark purposes. Jotaro and the friend who survived the journey, Polnareff, are out searching for them, while I'm here to find and obtain the arrow that you found."

"So that's why the arrows create Stand users," Makoto said, "Well, it's nice to know you'll be helping us."

"Of course, and it'll be easier with Hermit Purple," Joseph assured before taking out a note and pen, "Here's the address of the hotel I'm staying at while I'm here. If you need any help or have any new information for me, just come visit me."

He quickly wrote down the address and gave it to Makoto, who pocketed it for later use, "I gotta get going now, I'll see you around Makoto."

"You too Mr. Joestar," Makoto replied as Joseph got up from his seat and left, leaving Makoto on his own. As Makoto got ready to leave as well, he noticed the pen that Joseph used to write the address was left on the table. "Guess he forgot to take this with him, I'll just hold on to it for him," Makoto said as he pocketed the pen and was about to exit the restaurant when his phone began to ring.

He looked at the caller ID to see that it was Sayaka who was calling him, immediately answering after, "Hey Sayaka, what's up?"

"Makoto, you wouldn't happen to have heard from Leon have you?" Sayaka asked with concern in her voice.

"Leon, no I haven't," Makoto answered, "Is something wrong?"

"We were supposed to meet after class so I could help him with becoming a musician, but he hasn't shown up," she responded, "I tried calling him but it went straight to voicemail."

This got Makoto worried. Leon just suddenly disappearing most likely meant another Stand user ambushed him. Which means they'll be after the rest of them as well. Makoto thought of what to do before getting an idea, "Sayaka, wait for me at the front of Hope's Peak. I know how we can find Leon."

"Really, how?"

"I'll explain when I meet you, trust me."

"Alright, I'll see you soon Makoto," Sayaka said before the call had ended.

Makoto quickly left the restaurant and saw Joseph still walking away. "Mr. Joestar wait a second," Makoto called out, causing Joseph to turn towards him, "I might need your help sooner than expected."

Outside the gates of Hope's Peak, Sayaka was waiting for Makoto as per his request. She didn't have to wait long for him to show up, holding what seemed to be a photograph. "Makoto, what's going on?" she asked.

"If I had to guess, Leon got ambushed by another Stand user," Makoto explained.

"You said you knew how to find him, right?" she asked.

"Yeah, although it's going to be more difficult than I thought," Makoto said while holding up the photograph, "Remember when I told you and Leon about how I learned about Stands from a man named Joseph Joestar."

Sayaka nodded in response as he continued, "Well his Stand ability allows him to locate people with a picture, and he used it to find Leon. The only problem is, well just look for yourself."

He handed Sayaka the photograph and she took it and took a look at it. The photo simply showed an open art book with a pen laying beside it. On the page that was shown, it had a drawing of Leon with a drawing of Perfect Game right beside him.

"I don't get it, how is this showing where Leon is?" Sayaka asked.

"I'm not sure, but Mr. Joestar said that his Stand is never wrong," Makoto explained, "So there's gotta be something here that can give us a hint."

Sayaka looked more closely at the photo for anything that could be useful. Yet no matter how hard she looked she couldn't find any sort of clue to Leon's whereabouts, "I just don't get it. Maybe Kyoko and her Stand could find something."

"I was planning on showing it to her after this talk," Makoto said, "If there's anything in this photo that's a clue, she'll find it."

As he was about to enter the school, he was knocked down as someone who was in a hurry bumped into him, causing them to drop what they had been carrying. "Oh I am so sorry, I wasn't paying attention," they apologised as they and Makoto got up.

"Hifumi, what's the rush?" Sayaka asked curiously.

"Nothing special was just heading out to pick up the latest volume of Princess Piggles that had just been released," he answered.

"Alright," Makoto said before noticing the art book that Hifumi had dropped. He bent down to grab it, "Here you dropped… this." Makoto was left silent as he stared at a page that was open when the art book fell.

"Makoto, what's wrong?" Sayaka asked as she looked at the art book, only to be just as stunned as he was. On the page was the exact same drawing of Leon and Perfect Game that was shown on the photograph.

Hifumi quickly grabbed the art book away from them before staring intensely at the two, "You know, it's rude to take a look at other's drawings without their permission."

"Makoto, you don't think?" Sayaka questioned.

"It's the only reason I can think of," Makoto answered, "So you're a Stand user Hifumi?"

Hifumi was quiet for a bit before he chucked. "I admit, I didn't think you would be able to find out it was me until I was too late," Hifumi said as he looked up at them, a gleam in his eyes, "Clearly I have underestimated you two."

"Hifumi, what did you do with Leon?" Makoto asked, already taking Lucky Number out.

"I'll be happy to answer that, Mr. Naegi," Hifumi said as he straightened his glasses, "How about a short demonstration of my Stand?" Hifumi held out the art book, which began to rapidly turn before stopping at a blank page. Hifumi took out a pen from his pocket and immediately started drawing on the artbook at insane speed.

After only ten seconds, Hifumi had stopped drawing, showing that he drawn had a lone wolf that was baring its teeth. He then ripped out the page from the book and it started to glow. As it died down, the page had disappeared and suddenly a wolf had appeared in front of Hifumi, snarling at Makoto and Sayaka.

"What, his drawing came to life," Sayaka said in shock.

Hifumi chuckled, "This is the power of my Fine Art! Just by ripping out a page from it any drawing comes to life and is mine to command!"

The wolf suddenly pounced towards the two, heading straight for Makoto with its teeth ready to pierce its flesh. It moved to fast for Makoto to react and he was knocked down to the ground. The wolf right on top of him snarling.

"Siren's Sound!" Sayaka called out as her Stand was summoned. Sayaka let out a loud screech that was focused on the wolf, knocking it off of Makoto. This gave Makoto enough time to get up just as the wolf recovered from the sound attack.

"I will land a solid strike on the wolf as it pounces at me again," he said as he rolled Lucky Number. The die had just stopped on 15 as the wolf lept towards Makoto again. Once it got close enough, Makoto threw a fist and landed a punch on the wolf's head, causing it to yelp in pain as it went down to the ground.

The wolf suddenly started to shimmer before completely disappearing. "You two are very formidable indeed," Hifumi said as he was drawing something else on Fine Art, "It would be a mistake to underestimate you."

Sayaka didn't waste anytime as she used Siren's Sound to let out another loud screech at Hifumi, but to her surprise he was completely unfazed.

"If you are trying to deafen me Ms. Maizono I'm afraid it won't work," Hifumi said as he pointed at his ear, which had a black earbud in it, "I used Fine Art to create noise canceling earbuds specifically for your Stand. It would be a waste if you interrupt me, my next drawing is almost done."

Hearing this, Makoto grabbed Lucky Number and charged right for Hifumi, determined to stop him from completing it. Just as he reached for him, Hifumi turned Fine Art towards Makoto and Sayaka and revealed his finished drawing, which was of the two and their Stands. That was when the page started to glow as Hifumi began to laugh.

"Behold Fine Art's second ability! If I draw an existing object or person and reveal it to them, then they will get sucked into Fine Art!" Hifumi explained as Makoto and Sayaka covered their eyes from the light, "This was how I trapped Mr. Kuwata, and now you two shall be trapped with him!"

The two of them were helpless as the light grew brighter and consumed them. It eventually died down and both Makoto and Sayaka were gone. Hifumi closed his Stand before he suddenly vanished, with Fine Art dropping down to the floor and was simply left there.

Blankness. That was how Makoto would describe the place he had ended up in after being exposed to Fine Art. It was just an endless blank void with no end in sight.

"Where are we?" Sayaka asked as both her and Makoto looked at their surroundings.

"Well if what Hifumi said was true," Makoto started, "Then we're inside his Stand, Fine Art."

"Is that even possible?" she questioned.

"From what I have learned about Stands, just about anything is possible," Makoto answered.

"Oh he got you guys too huh."

The two of them turned around to find Leon walking up to them. "Leon, so this is where you've been?" Sayaka asked.

"Yep, never saw it coming," Leon said, "Been here by myself for a while, thought I would go crazy."

Perfect Game then appeared right beside him, "You know, technically you weren't alone because of me right."

"You're a part of me, so I was still by myself," Leon corrected.

"Whatever," the Stand replied.

"It appears the three of you have reunited," the voice of Hifumi could be heard throughout the parchment void, causing the trio to look around in confusion, "That will make this easier." Suddenly, a small tornado of paper appeared before dying down with Hifumi appearing where it once was.

"About time you show your face," Leon said angrily, "Now I can finally do this!" Perfect Game strummed its guitar as Leon pitched a ball of air towards Hifumi. However, Hifumu had taken out a pen and somehow drew a shield in the air in front of him, blocking Leon's attack.

"Oh Mr. Kuwata, always so rash," Hifumi said, "Not even a second I show up and you're already trying to pummel me."

"Well maybe I wouldn't have too if you kept me trapped in a world of nothing!" Loen exclaimed.

"Oh, but that is where you are wrong," Hifumi said.

"What do you mean?" Makoto asked.

"Look more closely at this place," Hifumi said with his arms spread out, "Do you notice anything at all, surely you see what I am talking about."

Confused by his words, the three just did what Hifumi suggested and looked around. That was when Makoto noticed that there was a certain texture to the world. "Is this… parchment?"

"Indeed it is Mr. Naegi!" Hifumi answered, "You three have been sucked into my Stand. The world we are in are the pages of Fine Art, where you three shall remain forever."

"Let us out Hifumi!" Sayaka demanded.

"Oh, why would I do that?" Hifumi asked, "That would defeat the purpose of bringing the three of you in here."

"Either you let us out or we'll make you," Leon threatened.

Hifumi only laughed at Leon's threat, "Oh Mr. Kuwata, that will not be possible. For you see…" Hifumi suddenly vanished, much to the surprise of the three. "Inside Fine Art, I am king!" Hifumi suddenly appeared behind Leon, wielding a large mallet

Before he could react, Leon was struck by the mallet and was sent flying, crashing right into Makoto who fell down from the impact.

"Leon! Makoto!" Sayaka exclaimed in worry as she went over to help them up.

"Hehehe, now do you see?" Hifumi asked as the mallet disappeared, "Inside my Stand I have control over everything. I can be anywhere, I can draw anything I want, and even you three aren't off limits of my control."

"What do you mean?" Makoto asked as he and Leon got up.

Hifumi laughed as he rapidly drew in front of him. Makoto suddenly felt something floppy on his head and something moving behind him. He brought a hand hand up to his head and felt a floppy dog ear. A hand to the other side of his head told him he had two of them and when Makoto looked behind him, he had a dog tail the same color as his hair attached to him.

"You cannot be serious right now," Leon said annoyed. Makoto looked at him to see he had two devil horns growing out of his head and a pointed tail behind him to go with them.

"Ahh! Hifumi you j-jerk!" Sayaka said embarrassingly. Makoto and Leon turned towards her to see that Sayaka was blushing madly as she now had two grey cat ears and a grey tail with black stripes.

"Hehehe, now do you understand my power," Hifumi said boldly, "I am invincible inside Fine Art!"

"Hah, this proves nothing," Leon retorted, "All you did was make Makoto more innocent, me more cool, and Sayaka more cute."

"I do not want to be a cat girl Leon!" Sayaka exclaimed.

"Innocent?" Makoto questioned as his tail drooped down.

Hifumi just scoffed unimpressively, "Say whatever you wish, but it does not change the fact that you are trapped in my Fine Art. Now if you excuse me, I must go get our remaining guests. But I shall leave you with a parting gift to entertain yourselves." Hifumi was suddenly surrounded by a tornado of pages as he disappeared when it died down.

"And he's gone, so now what?" Leon asked.

"I'm not sure, I never dealt with a Stand like this one before," Makoto answered. His dog tail wagged as he thought about what to do, which caused both Leon and Sayaka to stifle their laughter, "What?"

"Sorry dude, it's just," Leon said as he continued holding his laugh, "It's hard to take you seriously with that tail."

"The ears don't help much either," Sayaka smiled, "They really do make you look like an innocent puppy."

Makoto just blushed a bit before turning away. "At least Kyoko isn't seeing me like this," he whispered to himself. That was when he remembered what Hifumi said and his eyes widened at the realization, "Oh no, Kyoko!"

Makoto's sudden outburst caused Leon and Sayak to stop laughing and look at him. "What's about Kyoko?" Leon asked.

"Remember what Hifumi said, he went to get our remaining guests," Makoto explained, "He has to be talking about Kyoko and Syo."

"Oh no, if they get trapped in here with us it's all over," Sayaka said in worry.

"Um not to turn away from the current problem but did you all forget what else the fat kid said," Perfect Game said, getting their attention, "Something about a parting gift."

"Uh yeah, what do you think he meant by that?" Leon asked.

The ground suddenly began to tremble as a loud bang could be heard. The three turned around to see something huge being drawn out of nothing.

"Hifumi must be drawing something on Fine Art right now," Makoto said in worry, "And since we're in the Stand, whatever he draws becomes real here."

"This is bad," Sayaka worried.

Soon the drawing was finally finished, revealing to be a full sized T-Rex. Once the T-Rex was finished being drawn, it let out a huge roar which caused the trio to cover their ears. The T-Rex then looked over at them, causing them to worry.

"Now hold on, we'll be fine," Leon said confidently, "So long as we stand completely still, the T-Rex can't se-" He was interrupted as the dinosaur roared again and started walking towards them. "... Jurassic Park you lied to me!"

"Run!" Makoto shouted as the three of them began to run away from the T-Rex, as it continued chasing after them.

"What do we do, we still don't know what to do about Hifumi getting the other two!" Sayaka exclaimed as she ran.

"Not to worry, I already warned Kyoko that there was an enemy Stand user," Makoto explained.

"How?!" Leon asked.

"When Sayaka told me you were gone, I had prepared a text to her saying there's another Stand user," Makoto answered, "Before we got sucked in I was able to send it to her. She'll know we're dealing with an enemy Stand."

"But you didn't tell her what kind of Stand Hifumi has, or that he's the Stand user right?" Sayaka asked, "How is she supposed to figure it out."

"She's the Ultimate Detective remember, she'll definitely figure it out," Makoto answered.

"Less talking more running!" Perfect Game exclaimed as the T-Rex roared again.

"Why are you still here?! We're the ones running, you don't even have legs!" Leon shouted angrily.

"Oh yeah, good point," Perfect Game realized before disappearing.

"You jerk!"

The dinosaur roared again as it got closer, causing the trio to run much faster in order to escape its jaws.

Makoto: There's an enemy Stand user nearby. Be on alert.

Before Kyoko even got Makoto's text, she was already feeling something bad was amidst. But this text now confirms that feeling. She tried calling Makoto to see if he was ok only for it to go straight to voicemail, which did nothing but increase her worry.

"It appears this Stand user has gotten the drop on Makoto," Mystery Girl noted as she appeared beside Kyoko, "Clearly they are a formidable opponent."

"I can't get in touch with Leon or Sayaka either, I think it's safe to say the Stand user got to them as well," Kyoko said, "Looks like we're on our own for this one."

"What about Syo?" Mystery Girl questioned.

"You really want to rely on her for assistance?" Kyoko asked bluntfully.

"Valliant point," the Stand responded, "Any idea where we should begin our investigation, Mistress Kirigiri?"

"The text he sent also had an image attached to it," Kyoko answered, "Perhaps Makoto has obtained a clue for the user's identity."

Kyoko opened the attached image on her phone, which was the same photograph of the art book and pen with the drawing of Leon and Perfect Game. At first glance the image didn't seem to reveal much, but Kyoko knew better. If Makoto sent her this photo, then it must be for a reason.

Her vision already changing as Mystery Girl's ability kicked in, her sight zooming in on the photo for any revealing clues. It didn't take long until she found one particular detail in the picture, the pen. While the picture had it mostly in shadow, making it difficult to see, it wasn't a problem for Kyoko's enhanced sight. The pen was mostly pink with different colored hearts decorating it, but there was one detail about it that was almost impossible to miss with her eyesight. The pen's clicker resembled a small, overweight girl that was dressed as a cupid.

"Such an odd choice for a pen," Mystery Girl noted.

"Agreed," Kyoko… well, agreed, "But because of it I have a good idea on who the enemy Stand user is. This character is an anime protagonist that Hifumi is practically obsessed with, owning practically every type of merchandise of them."

"I guess this would mean he is the Stand user," Mystery Girl said.

"Seems to be the case," Kyoko said, "We have no choice but to confront him if we wish to save Makoto and the others."

"As you deem so, Mistress Kirigiri," Mystery Girl agreed as she dispersed before Kyoko exited her room to find Hifumi.

"Guys… I don't think… we can keep running… anymore," Leon said tiredly between breaths as he and the others continued running as the T-Rex continued chasing them.

"Tell that to the dinosaur that's set out for us!" Makoto exclaimed.

"Any ideas?" Sayaka asked as the T-Rex could be heard roaring behind them.

"Can't you just use Lucky Number to roll for you to kick this lizard in the head?" Leon asked.

"The actions have to be realistic, how is it realistic for me to kick a T-Rex?!" Makoto retorted loudly.

"Alright I had enough of this," Sayaka said before she stopped running. As Makoto and Leon were about to ask what she was doing, Sayaka faced the T-Rex as Siren's Sound appeared beside her. Bringing her hands together and taking a deep breath, she let out a loud, deafening, banshee-like scream that caused the T-Rex to stop as it roared in agony from the loud noise.

As Sayaka kept screaming, Makoto knew she wouldn't be able to keep it going for long and once she stops the dinosaur will just go after them again, As he thought of what to do next, he remembered how Hifumi was able to draw things on the parchment of the world and they came to life. Makoto quickly got out the pen that Joseph had forgotten when they talked.

"Leon, I think I have an idea," Makoto informed, getting the red-head's attention. Using the pen, Makoto was able to draw on the "air" of the parchment world and drew a small, serrated knife. He grabbed the knife and gave it to Leon.

"Great thinking Makoto," Leon smiled as he took the knife as Sayaka stopped screaming. While the T-Rex was still stunned, Leon summoned Perfect Game as he got ready to throw the knife.

"Aidos, Tyrannosaur!" Perfect Game exclaimed, strumming its guitar as Leon threw the knife. The knife flew straight into the T-Rex's eye, causing it to roar in pain. But it didn't stop there as Perfect Game kept playing its guitar, the knife digging deeper into the eye before it completely entered the T-Rex's head through the eye. The dinosaur roared in pain before the knife exited out through the back of its head.

The T-Rex stumbled a bit before falling on its side before shimmering and vanishing. The three sighed in relief now that the threat was gone. "Thank god that's over," Leon said as he collapsed to the ground.

"Yeah, but that still doesn't fix the whole trapped inside the Stand situation," Sayaka said.

"Well sadly, I don't think there's anything we can do," Makoto said, "There's not much we can do while trapped inside Fine Art. It's like Hifumi said, we're stuck here."

"So what, we're never getting out," Leon said worriedly.

"I didn't say that, just that we couldn't do anything" Makoto clarified, "There's still Kyoko. She's the only one who can get us out."

"What about Syo?" Leon asked, receiving blank stares from both Makoto and Sayaka, "... yeah didn't think so either."

"So I guess all we can do now is wait," Sayaka said.

"Or do something about that person that's slowly walking over to us," Perfect Game suggested as it pointed to the distance,

They all looked to see that there was someone walking over to them, but they were too far to see. As they got closer, the three of them got ready in case they were hostile. However, once they were close enough to see, Makoto and the others gasped in shock as they saw who it was.

Hifumi Yamada was feeling really good about himself as he exited the store with a bag in his hand. He took a quick look at the contents of the bag, showing to be a manga titled "Princess Piggles" with the cover being of an overweight girl dressed as a cupid.

"Ah today has truly been a splendid day so far," Hifumi said joyfully, "The latest volume of Princess Piggle now in my hands. Nothing can ruin this for me now!"

"I wouldn't be so sure of that."

Hifumi yelped in surprise at the voice of Kyoko Kirigiri, who was now right behind him looking not all pleased to see him.

"Ah Ms. Kirigiri, to what do I owe the pleasure?" Hifumi asked slightly nervous.

"I think you know exactly what I am here Hifumi," she said threateningly, "What did you do with Makoto and the others?"

"Mr. Naegi, why I have no idea where is," he answered, "What makes you think I did something to him?"

"You can cut the act Hifumi, it won't do you any good," Kyoko said, "Just come out with the truth."

"The truth? Well the truth is, Ms. Kirigri," Hifumi started before taking a serious expression, "I was hoping to deal with you much later." Fine Art appeared in his hands as Hifumi ripped out a page and it started to glow before a swarm of bees appeared and that headed straight for Kyoko.

She responded by summoning Mystery Girl, who was able to take out every single bee with a flurry of punches. When the bees stopped, Kyoko saw that Hifumi had summoned a crossbow and was aiming right at her. He fired the arrow but Mystery Girl was able to grab it before it could pierce Kyoko.

"It appears your Stand is more capable than I thought," Hifumi said, "Even so it pales compared to the power of my Fine Art!" Hifumi began drawing something in his Stand, which Kyoko noticed and quickly rushed towards him. As Mystery Girl was about to attack, Hifumi ripped out the page and a small white ball appeared.

When Kyoko's stand hit the ball, it suddenly went off and a bunch of smoke appeared. Unable to see in the smoke, Kyoko was unable to see Hifumi, now holding a large mallet, come at her behind. But just before it could hit her, Mystery Girl managed to block the mallet and strike Hifumi, sending him back a bit.

"I recommend watching your blind spot Mistress Kirigiri," Mystery Girl said.

"Noted," Kyoko said.

Hifumi quickly got up and glared at Kyoko, "Well, looks like I underestimated your Stand. You will be more troublesome Ms. Kirigiri."

"I don't have time for your games Hifumi," Kyoko said annoyed, "What did you do with Makoto?"

"You really want to know, I'll be happy to let you join them," Hifumi said, quickly tearing off another page, summoning a whole flock of eagles, "Tell me, can your Stand keep up with the power of mine."

"Let's find out, shall we," Mystery Girl said, getting in a stance as the eagles flew towards her and Kyoko, talons out.

Inside Fine Art, Makoto, Leon, and Sayaka weren't sure how to respond to who they were seeing right now. Seeing Kyoko Kirigiri, their only chance of getting out, trapped inside the book Stand with them would certainly bring that reaction.

"I knew I would find you three eventually," Kyoko said calmly.

"Kyoko, you're in here too?" Makoto asked.

"That would appear to be the case," the detective said calmly.

"Oh great, then that means we're trapped here forever," Leon said defeatedly.

"Game over man, game over!" Perfect Game exclaimed.

"I think you misunderstand," Kyoko said, "I am Kyoko, just not the one you know."

"What do you mean?" Sayaka asked.

Makoto thought about what Kyoko meant before noticing something was different about her. Kyoko's entire body was tinted the same parchment texture as the rest of the void around them. That was when he realized what she was talking about, "You're a drawing of Kyoko that Hifumi made, right?"

"Correct," 'Kyoko' confirmed.

"A drawing, wait so then the real Kyoko is still out in the real world?" Leon asked.

"For the time being, however I assume Hifumi drew me to be ready in advance for her," Book Kyoko informed.

"So that means that if Hifumi shows you to our Kyoko, then that's it," Sayaka said.

"Welp, not much we can do but wait for the outcome," Perfect Game said as it tuned its guitar.

"Is that really all you have to say," Leon said annoyed.

"Actually," Makoto said, getting everyone's attention, "There might be something we can do to help Kyoko."

"What's that?" Leon asked.

"Think about it, when Hifumi drew us to trap us in Fine Art, was there anything off about the drawing?" he asked.

Leon and Sayaka thought on Makoto's question before Sayaka answered, "I didn't see anything off, it was just an accurate drawing of me."

"Exactly, that's the point," Makoto said. Leon and Sayaka looked at him confused, while Drawing Kyoko simply smiled.

"I knew you would be able to figure it out," she smiled.

"Can someone explain to me what the hell are you talking about?" Leon demanded.

"What Makoto is saying," Drawing Kyoko started, "Is that in order for Fine Art to trap a person, the drawing must be completely accurate. Even a small difference between the drawing and the original will result in the Stand failing to work."

"And if this Kyoko is a drawing Hifumi made to trap our Kyoko," Makoto continued as he took out Joseph's pen, "Then we can change something so that Kyoko won't get trapped in her."

"Yeah, yeah that can work!" Leon exclaimed.

"But what should we change on Drawing Kyoko?" Sayaka asked.

"It doesn't matter what, so long as it's different than the original then Fine Art won't work," Drawing Kyoko explained.

"Hold on, I just realized something," Leon said, "How come unlike the other drawings Hifumi has made, why are you helping us?"

"While I may not be the real Kyoko Kirigiri, I still have her personality," Drawing Kyoko answered, "Apparently if Hifumi draws a real person, they retain the same personality as the original inside Fine Art. Because of this, when I realized you three were here I came as soon as I could to lend some aid."

"Well thank goodness for that," Makoto said, capping the pen.

Kyoko was breathing heavily now as Mystery Girl took out another eagle, causing it to disappear and leaving only one left. The eagle that Hifumi's Fine Art summoned were proving to be more of a challenge than both of them first thought. Kyoko was starting to get tired from using Mystery Girl too long, which could be seen during the fight, as some of the eagles managed to successfully claw Mystery Girl, leaving Kyoko with some scratches.

While all this was happening, Hifimi was drawing something in his Stand. This made her worry a bit as she wasn't sure how long she could keep up with Hifumi's Stand. As the final eagle swooped down towards Mystery Girl, Kyoko decided to rush in and end this as soon as possible.

"You ready for this?" Kyoko asked her Stand.

"As they say, now or never," Mystery Girl confirmed.

The eagle had its talons out ready to claw Mystery Girl, however the Stand simply sidestepped away and landed a solid punch on the eagle as it disappeared. Taking the opportunity Kyoko, with Mystery Girl beside her, rushed over to Hifumi, who merely smirked.

"It is no use Ms. Kirigiri, everytime you defeat one of my drawings I will always summon another one," Hifumi said as he ripped off another page. This time, however, Kyoko was prepared.

"You may always have a drawing ready Hifumi, but it won't help if I already know what it is," Kyoko thought as her vision changed and zoomed in on the page before it started to glow, "Mystery Girl allows me to see the smallest details, so being able to find out your drawing before its summoned is nothing."

When the drawing, which was a wolf, was summoned, Mystery Girl immediately landed a solid punch on the wolf's head and making it disappear. With nothing in her way, Kyoko was about to have Mystery Girl attack Hifumi, but he just smirked much to her confusion.

"Like I said, it is no use!" he exclaimed as he held Fine Art in front of her, revealing its pages. Hifumi smirked at his victory...only for Mystery Girl to punch him in the face with Fine Art sandwiched between the Stand's fist and his face.

Hifumi was knocked down to the ground and Fine Art was thrown into the air, only for Mystery Girl to catch it. Kyoko looked at the page that was open, raising an eyebrow in confusion.

"H-How did you do that, that should be impossible," Hifumi said as he got up, blood coming out from his nose from the hit, "I showed you the drawing in Fine Art, you should have been sucked right in."

"If you are referring to this drawing of me, I admit it is well drawn and nearly accurate," Kyoko said, "However, I musk ask about these additions you gave me." Mystery Girl showed Fine Art to Hifumi, showing a drawing of Kyoko, but with cat ears on her head.

"Wh-what, I never drew those!" he exclaimed in shock, "How did they… unless… those three."

Makoto capped the pen closed as he finished adding cat ears to Drawing Kyoko, "There, that should be enough to stop Fine Art from trapping Kyoko."

"If I may ask, why cat ears exactly?" Drawing Kyoko asked.

"No reason in particular, we just needed to draw something and cat ears just came to mind," Makoto explained.

"Ah don't try and hide it Makoto, you just wanted to see how she would look like as a cute cat girl," Leon nudged playfully, "Can't say I blame you, cat girls are always cute. Just look at Sayaka."

Sayaka had a blank expression on her face as she and Drawing Kyoko looked at each other before sharing a nod with each other.

"Ow!" Leon exclaimed in pain as both Sayaka and Drawing Kyoko had smacked the back of his head.

"You need to control what you say Leon," Sayaka said.

Makoto just chuckled softly at their actions.

"There's something I'm curious about," Kyoko said, "Makoto explained to me that for most Stands, any damage they take is shared to their users. Yet you never got hurt when I attacked your drawings, but does that apply to the Stand itself."

Realizing what she was about to do, Hifumi quickly ran to grab Fine Art before Kyoko could do anything. It was too late however as Mystery Girl punched the art book, causing Hifumi to fall down in pain. Kyoko looked down at Hifumi with a glare as Mystery Girl started to bend Fine Art, making Hifumi groan in pain. "Last chance Hifumi, tell me how to get Makoto and the others back."

Hifumi just stayed silent, causing Kyoko to sigh, "Suit yourself. Mystery Girl, if you would?"

"As you wish, Mistress Kirigiri," the Stand replied before tossing Fine Art to the air, much to Hifumi's horror as he knew what was about to happen. "We only have one thing to say to you now Hifumi," Mystery Girl said as the Stand fell back down towards Mystery Girl. Once it got close enough, the Stand started a barrage of fists onto the artbook, every blow being felt by Hifumi.

"SAYONARA!"

With one last hit, Mystery Girl sent both Fine Art and Hifumi a good distance, rendering him covered in bruises and barely conscious.

"It is done," Mystery Girl commented before taking a breath from her pipe.

Kyoko walked over to Hifumi, who was trying to stand back up. She reached for his forehead where sure enough, one of the Mastermind's controllers was placed. Taking it out, she tossed the controller to Mystery Girl who caught and closed her fist around it, holding in the explosion.

"You alright Hifumi?" Kyoko asked.

"No… everything hurts," Hifumi groaned, barely managing to stand up.

"My apologies, but I'm afraid you had left us with no choice," Mystery Girl informed.

"You can go seek medical attention if you wish, but there is something we need you to do first," Kyoko explained.

"Of course," Hifumi said, picking up Fine Art off the ground. He skimmed through the pages of his Stand before ripping out two pages from it which began to glow. Once the glowing stopped, Makoto, Leon, and Sayaka had suddenly appeared.

"Freedom at last!" Leon cheered seeing that they were out.

"Oh thank goodness, no more cat ears," Sayaka said happily, feeling her head that no longer had cat ears.

"So glad to finally be out of there," Makoto said.

"I am glad to see you three are ok," Kyoko informed.

"Thanks to you we are," Makoto replied, "I knew you were able to get us out."

"While I am thankful for your confidence in me, there is something I must ask," Kyoko explained, "I understand now that it was you three who altered Hifumi's drawing of me, but who was the one who gave me cat ears."

Makoto could feel a sense of dread from Kyoko, and he immediately started to get nervous. Before he could say anything, however, Leon and Sayaka just had to butt in.

"Welp, you're on your own bro," Leon said as he began to walk away, "I have had enough with today."

"Good luck Makoto," Sayaka said with a supportive smile as she too walked away.

"Could one of you two assist me to the hospital?" Hifumi groaned as he followed them.

Makoto was sweating nervously as he was left alone at the mercy of Kyoko, who simply just stared at him. While her expression was blank, Makoto could tell there was something terrifying within it. "K-Kyoko, there's a perfectly good explanation."

"Oh I'm sure there is," Kyoko replied.

"Why me?"

The Togami Library.

Located here are countless books and reports containing just about anything. From police files of cold cases, to books of important and wealthy families, this library had almost every bit of information for the Togami family. And it was here where Byakuya Togami was wandering through the shelves of the library searching for something. After wandering for over ten minutes, he finally found what he was looking for. From a nearby shelf he pulled out a moderately thick file labeled 'Joestar Family.'

After hearing how Makoto was associated with a Joestar, Byakuya was determined to learn as much about them as possible. He knew that his family has been keeping tabs on the Joestars, but he was unaware of the reason for lack of interest. But seeing as how Makoto knew one of them, they may be more important than he had first thought.

With that in mind, he took the file over to a nearby table before sitting down and opening up the file.

"Alright Joestar, let's see what makes you so special. And what Makoto has to do with you."

At long last I am done with this chapter! It's been over a month since I started this chapter and now I am finally finished!

Monokuma: Too soon if you ask me, I was enjoying the despair the readers were in from waiting so long.

Shut it! Anyways, I apologise for the wait. This chapter took longer than I thought, seriously this chapter is over 9000 words! That's the most I have ever done! I just had so much planned for this chapter, but I didn't think it would be this much.

But like I said in the beginning, after this I'm going to be working on my other stories for a bit before I continue with this story. I apologise but I want to update my other stories too. But once I'm done with those, you can bet I'll be back to this story.

Now let's explain the new Stand this chapter, one of my personal favorites of my original Stands. Hifumi's Stand, Fine Art, takes the form of a blue art book that has an infinite amount of pages. Fine Art has two different abilities, it's first and primary ability is that by ripping out a drawing from Fine Art, that drawing comes to life. This can range from animals, to weapons, to even people, the limit is really Hifumi's imagination. Now whatever he draws is technically part of the Stand, so they can hurt other Stands but also can be hurt by things that are not Stands.

Fine Art's secondary ability is a powerful one. If Hifumi draws a real person and reveals the drawing to them, they are then trapped inside Fine Art. The inside of Fine Art is basically a world made entirely out of parchment that goes on forever. While in this world, whatever Hifumi draws on the pages of Fine Art become real inside the Parchment World. Hifumi can freely enter Fine Art and while inside he is more or less a god, able to be anywhere and do anything within his Stand. Fine Art's name is a reference to the 2011 song, Debauchery as a Fine Art by Michael Monroe.

Favorite part of this chapter has to be Mystery Girl unleashing her Stand cry. For some reason, when coming up for a Stand cry for Kyoko, sayonara was the first thing that came to mind. And seeing as how I couldn't come up with anything else, I just stuck with it.

And yes, Joseph is now part of this story. He was too good to just leave as a cameo in a chapter and flashbacks, I just had to bring him in. However don't expect too much of him as this is Makoto's story, but he'll show up from time to time.

As always, hoped you guys enjoyed this chapter and keep an eye out for the next one.
