《Metanoia》Chapter 25

You took your hand back and looked at it, you had human bite marks on it and scratches and you stood up. Fugo's body went on all fours and started purring, rubbing against your legs.
"I think we switched bodies with whoever we were closest to, it must include animals if Fugo switched with a cat."
Narancia spoke up and you nodded, Abbacchio scoffed loudly and walked towards his body.
"Ugh, just another reason why you need to stay away from me."
Abbacchio jabbed Giorno's chest and then moved onto Narancia.
"And why you need to stay away from Y/n."
Abbacchio harshly jabbed your chest and you watched. You rubbed your chest and cringed while feeling second hand pain.
"Ow, that hurt, you're hurting Y/n!"
Narancia whined and jabbed Abbacchio's chest back.
"I'm not hurting Y/n."
"Yes, you are."
"No, I'm not."
"Yes, you are."
"No, I'm not."
"This is Y/n's body so you're hurting her body."
"You're the one feeling the pain."
"Both of you be quiet if we switched bodies with whoever we're closest to..."
Mista looked towards Bruno's body.
"Then who's in Bucciarati?"
Narancia and Abbacchio stopped bickering and everyone quieted down. All of you were looking at Bruno's motionless body. Narancia started to walk to Bruno but Giorno put his arm out to stop him.
"We shouldn't go nearer if we don't know who it is. We don't know what happened to the boss or what happened to the man we were supposed to meet. Narancia, scout the area with Aerosmith."
The silence came again and you all waited.
"G-Guys something's wrong, Aerosmith won't come out!"
You looked at Narancia and he had his arms extended and waited for Aerosmith to come out but it wouldn't.
"Wh-What if our stands are- are-"
"No, take a closer look."
Giorno stopped him and you all looked at a wall with a hole through it. The distant sound of a plane started to get louder and louder until you spotted Aerosmith in the sky. Narancia's face lit up with a grin.
"I-It's so fast! I couldn't even see it! I'm not sure what's going on but I feel stronger than before!"
You heard Mista's pistol go off, you went to see but the bullet had already passed you and you saw six iron railings being broken through with one shot.
"I still have my stand, buts it's been powered up! That was only one bullet!"
You took out Ocean Man and it floated next to you, a single drop of spit dripped onto the ground and it burned at least two inches deep into the ground.
"What has happened?"
A cracked up gravely voice spoke and you looked at Ocean Man with your eyes wider than dinner plates. It talked. It could talk.
"O-Oh my gosh..."
You felt like you got a full eight hours of sleep and you were ready to run a marathon, whatever was happening it was making you feel amazing and making Ocean Man stronger.
"Our stands are stronger... then it's good Fugo's a cat. We don't know what Purple Haze could do. Or maybe he can use his stand."
Giorno looked at Fugo who was laying at your feet along with his body.

"Don't take out your stand."
Fugo only meowed in return and you held your arms out to Giorno.
"Could you heal me now?"
Giorno nodded and walked towards you and gently took your arms. There was a loud hiss that came from Fugo and Ocean Man screeched right back at him and Fugo and the cat in Fugo's body both hissed and ran away.
Fugo scampered away and ran towards Trish, jumping onto her and hissing at her. He purposefully ran towards Mista's body because he knew Trish was in it, and he could use his new claws to scratch her.
"There's no one nearby."
Narancia was looking at his radar and you put your arms down and put Ocean Man away.
"Everyone around the coliseum is asleep, I can tell which one is the boss. Wait, some people are waking up, everyone else got swapped too!"
Narancia stood by Mista and you walked to Fugo's body, you took it upon yourself to keep an eye on him for the time being.
Trish let out a small scream from Fugo's attack and she pushed him away. Fugo meowed loudly at her and they started glaring at each other again. Fugo broke the glare first and let out a small cat huff, walking to your body with his nose turned up.
"Get away from me you mangy cat."
Abbachcio scoffed and pushed Fugo's body away who was trying and rub up against him.
"How are we supposed to keep an eye on Fugo's body when there's a cat in it?"
You walked towards Fugo's body and crouched down next to him. Scratching the top of his head which made him purr and stretch.
"Hey Y/n make a circle with your acid, cats stay in those small circles and boxes right?"
Mista spoke up and you stood up.
"You're right, good idea Mista."
You smiled at him and Ocean Man came out and like Mista suggested Ocean Man burned a circle into the ground, a was the ring was deep and acted more like a small moat.
Just like Mista predicted Fugo's body walked on all fours to the circle and then fell onto its side, starting to lick the back of his hand while purring.
"That's so adorable."
You looked at Fugo's body softly and Ocean Man vanished, you heard Abbacchio scoff and Trish huff at this while Fugo, in the cat body, rubbed against your legs happily.
"What are you doing?"
Narancia was looking at Giorno who was crouched down and touching the floor, using his stand and looking for Bucciarati.
"I should be able to sense souls energy through the ground, but I can't find who Bucciarati swapped with..."
You looked around. Everything felt quiet despite Trish talking to Giorno and the cat in Fugo's body purring. The sky was still dark and everyone was still slowly waking up.
Your eyes darted to something on a pillar and saw Coco Jumbo. Apparently, you weren't the only one to see this because Giorno also looked at him.
"Ow..."
You made a face and slowly walked towards the pillar with Giorno.
Did Coco Jumbo just speak?
"Without question the enemy is Diavolo, do you understand?"
Giorno took a step back and you did the same.
He did speak!

"Listen to me. Are you Giorno Giovanna?"
Giorno took another step back and called for Golden Experience and took the key out of Coco Jumbo's back.
"I'm not in the turtle, I am the turtle. I'm the one speaking. Do you understand?"
Everyone had different reactions and you took a step back to stand by Mista.
"My name is Jean Pierre Polnareff. I'm the man you were supposed to meet at the coliseum. But now I can no longer give you the tool to defeat Diavolo. I only did this because I had no other choice."
Your lips parted and you spoke up.
"What do you mean you did this? Are you saying... you caused this? Everyone switching minds?"
Your eyebrows were furrowed as all of you kept your distance from the turtle.
"Yes but this is only part of Chariot's power. What's happening right now is part of the arrow's power, the arrow was the tool I was supposed to give you. To be precise, it's because my stand, Silver Chariot grabbed the arrow. My body is already dead, I'm only alive because I swapped with the turtle."
Your face turned to one of sadness and your shoulders sagged a bit.
That means Coco Jumbo's dead...
"Well if you're telling the truth that means your stand can make us normal again?"
"No."
Your jaw dropped. Were you going to be stuck as Narancia for the rest of your life? You couldn't live like that.
"I have no control over my stand currently and I have no way to make it disappear. I don't even know where it is. Silver Chariot has gone berserk."
Trish took a small step forward.
"How can you lose control over your own stand? How could y-"
"That's not important right now Trish, what we need to know is what happened with the boss."
Abbacchio interrupted her.
"What happened to him? Where is Diavolo?"
Abbachcio looked at Polnareff sternly and demanded answer while standing close to you and you looked at him with an odd look.
When did he get there?
"I don't know. He was in front of me but disappeared. All of you need to listen very carefully. The arrow is not your enemy, but don't mistake it as your friend."
You stayed silent and listened carefully as he told you to.
"Two years ago Chariot hurt its finger on the arrow while retrieving it for me. The stand arrow draws out stands from people who have potential, but if it cuts a stand..."
That shadow puppet stand thing that stabbed me, it said I was worthy, that must be what it meant. If that old man was also stabbed then he didn't have potential since he died.
"Stands have hidden potential just like the stand users! Something so complex and deep that it awakens a hidden power. A power to strong for me to control, which is why I was going to give it to you. Because one of you would have the power to control the power the arrow would give your stand."
You were invested in his talk like it was a bedtime story and you were six. It was a lot less boring than the talk on the computer.
"So this is your stand's hidden power, swapping souls?"
Narancia questioned form your body.
"Only part. I can't control it, so I don't know it's true potential beyond this. But there is more to Chariot's power hens just this! You need to retrieve the arrow before Diavolo! He is no doubt searching for Chariot now and you need to revers Chariot's effect on everyone by reclaiming the arrow! The only way to defeat King Crimson is for one of you to use the arrow to its full potential!"
You swallowed thickly, it sounded like a lot of pressure and you only gained your stand a few days ago, you were sure you wouldn't be able to control Ocean Man if it were to be cut by the arrow.
"You're telling us that we need to kill Chariot in order to take the arrow? Or am I stretching my imagination?"
Giorno spoke seriously.
"That's ok. Anything you need to do, once you rise the arrow Chariot will be destroyed anyway. My body is already dead. There is one more thing you need to hear."
More?
"Are you the girl Trish?"
Polnareff looked at Mista who looked at Trish.
"Yes, but currently I am a smelly, hairy, sweaty man."
Mista deflated again while Narancia had to cover his mouth to suppress his laughter.
"That was uncalled for."
Trish looked at him and crossed her arms.
"Your smell was uncalled for."
Narancia had to put both hands over his mouth now and you had to cover your mouth as well.
This is serious, I can't laugh right now.
"I see, there is something about your father. He is two different people. There was a kid with pink hair just like yours that helped Bucciarati walk into the coliseum, he and Diavolo are working in sync."
Kid with pink hair just like Trish's?
"The boss trusts no one which is how he's kept his identity hidden for so long."
True air suddenly thickened and everything turned more seriously if possible.
"The bo-"
"Giorno! There's a signal, someone's coming! Someone's running to the gate on the right!"
Narancia looked at Giorno who did a bunch of hand signals.
I know hand signals too. Clap, peace sign, ok sign, shade your eyes and tilt to the side.
You followed everyone's lead and grabbed Polnareff and hid. The person came into view and you all gasped.
"The boss! Diavolo!"
Giorno gave signals to Narancia to shoot but Polnareff started shouting in your hands.
"Wait! Look in shadows! Chariot Requiem!"
Your eyes went to the shadows and you saw a black figure holding onto the arrow.
"This is bad! Diavolo was looking for the arrow!"
You looked at Giorno who took out Golden Experience and was about to charge at him.
"No! Giorno wait! If everyone has switched bodies, then this can't be the boss. This must be someone else inside the boss's body!"
Just as you said that Sticky Fingers came out of Diavolo.
"That stand!"
"It's Sticky Fingers!"
"It's Bucciarati!"
You, Narancia, Abbachcio, all yelled at the same time. A excited look lit up your face as you yelled his name.
Bruno didn't hesitate in hitting Chariot and you all watched as the arm Chariot was holding the arrow either was torn off his body and this made your smile dampen.
That... That looked too easy... Why didn't Chariot dodge or defend himself?
