– Amelia's POV –
Everything was dark around me. No light just dark. Am I dead? Am I in a dream? I'm not sure. It was all dark and silent, until I heard whispers. Some were familiar to me. Some weren't.
"Your a dissapointment. "
"You will never find happiness. "
"You're a heartless bitch."
Stop. Please.
"You don't care about who dies or lives."
"You will always be cold and unloved."
Shut up.
"You cannot change the past and your past will always keep haunting you."
"In this world, you need to be cold blooded in order to survive. "
Stop it.
"You will lose everything you love and be that lonely little girl again. "
SHUT UP!!!
The whispers kept on repeating themselves. I just want them to stop. I just want them to stop talking. Please someone shut them up....
Then I heard a voice. It was Green's.
"Amelia? Amelia?!"
.
.
.
.
.
Amelia immediately woke up and saw that she was still in the car. Amelia noticed that her head was resting on Green's right leg and there were tears falling from her eyes, she then looked straight to see Green looking at her with worry.
"Green?"
"Yeah it's me." Green said in relief as he started to wipe away her tears.
"What happened?"
"You passed out for some time and then while you were passed out you started crying and... I woke you up. I'm just glad that you are alright." He said with a smile.
Amelia looked at her right hand and saw it was bandaged. She looks at Rodeo sitting on the front seat looking at her while Miguel was in the driver's seat driving the car while Green was in the back seat with Amelia.
".....Amelia why did you do that?" Rodeo asked.
"I noticed the bite marks on Chilli Pepper's arm and I assumed that Green's Stand did it, he was going to stab your Stand and since you said that any damage done to the Stand will harm the user... I just didn't want to..."
"See me get killed?" Green finished.
Amelia nodded, "Yes."
Rodeo and Green looked at each other and then looked back at her.
"Just please..... don't do that again." He said with concern and worry.
Amelia places a gentle hand on his face and says, "Alright, Rodeo."
Rodeo nods and looks at the Stand arrow he was holding on his left hand and then continues looking outside.
"Amelia. How are you feeling right now?" Green asked.
"Just a minor headache. But other than that though... I'm completely fine."
"Green, can you call out your Stand?" Rodeo spoke.
"But why?"
"I need to know whether she can see your Stand or not."
"Alright then. Cerberus."
Once he calls out his Stand, Cerberus appears above Green before asking Amelia.
"Can you see it? It's right above me."
Amelia blinked twice but couldn't see Cerberus. She blinked one more time and her eyes widened to see Cerberus.
"War. War."
"My god."
"You can see it?"
"Yeah.... I can see it."
Rodeo hum, "So both of you are now Stand users. Amelia, try to call out your Stand."
"Now how do I do that?"
"Just concentrate."
Amelia took a deep breath and concentrated but nothing appeared.
"I don't feel anything."
"Weird... perhaps your Stand hasn't awakened yet. You know what, just take some rest. I don't want to push you."
"He's right. You need to get some rest." Green said, receiving a nod from Amelia.
As she closes her eyes and takes a nap, Miguel then asks Green.
"How far is site-19?"
"Just keep going down the road, make two lefts and then a right turn."
"Got it."
Green looked at Amelia who was asleep and gently pats her head.
"Do you think the foundation will classify you and Amelia has SCPs?" Rodeo asked.
"I'm not sure myself, Rodeo. But we'll try to figure something out once we reach site-19."
"Let's hope so."
".....I do want to ask you though. How did you get that jar with dirt?" He asked.
"Oh that. I told Evan to steal some jars from the cafeteria and put dirt in them. You know just in case we need to you know... run away from a situation."
"Well that makes sense."
"You know we stole this car right?" Miguel joins in and starts.
"Yeah that we did."
"Don't worry. We'll tell Emma and she will tell some Foundation Agent to return the car where it originally was. Simple as that." Rodeo said with no worries.
"You know, you two did escape site-19 as well? I'm pretty sure Emma's gonna have a word with you two." Green said.
Rodeo and Miguel looked at each other with anime sweat drops on their heads, they then continued looking forward.
""Agreed.""
Green turned to face Amelia, who was still asleep and whispered to her.
"Thanks for saving me."
Then, Amelia slightly opens her eyes which surprises him and she whispers to him back.
"You're welcome." She said with a sweet smile. She then gives him a gentle kiss, Green returns the kiss back as well.
As they break away from the kiss, both of them decide to take a nap for a while until they reach Site-19, surprisingly Rodeo and Miguel didn't notice their interaction at all.
———————————————————————
– Emma's Office, Site-19, America - 12:30 AM –
"You didn't even think for one moment to tell us about this?!"
Emma was in her office with the Stand gang as well along with Carson, Sophia who got a new mechanical hand thanks to SCP-212, Molly Collingwood, Sgt. Johnson, Simmons and Gustav.
"Look, Rodeo took a very calculative and logical risk. He'll be back." Evan assured her.
"But he is still injured. He's in no condition to fight." Molly said.
"Miguel's with him."
"But still."
"That's not the only problem, Evan. This is the Foundation. You can't go wherever you want and do whatever you want to. If the council finds out... they will not hesitate in putting more strict containment measures for all of you."
".....I sense something." Michelle murmured.
Now that she mentioned it. The Stand gang did feel two new presences in the site. Stand presence. And that Stand presence was heading towards the office.
"We got two Stand users approaching the office." Evan said, feeling something as well.
"What?!"
"They're getting closer to the door." Said Jeff.
Everybody looked at the door and readied themselves. Carson, Johnson and Simmons, Sophia readied their Gallock pistols while Emma, Molly and Gustav stood behind Carlos.
"They're here."
Then, the door opens to reveal Green, Miguel, Rodeo and Amelia.
"YOU PICKED THE WRONG SITE, FOOL!" Evan yelled, holding ten knives in his hand and ready to throw it at them.
"Evan, it's me, Rodeo! Chill!! Chill!!" Rodeo shouted while raising his hands.
"Thank god, you guys are finally back!" Evan throws the knives away and hugs Rodeo, Miguel, Green and Amelia. But their little reunion was cut short when Emma questions.
"Guys, where the hell have you been?! Rodeo I swear–" Her sentence was immediately cut off as Rodeo showed the golden Stand arrow to everyone in the room. Pretty much everyone was shocked.
"Is that...?"
"Yep, it's the Stand arrow." He confirms.
"I'm impressed." Jeff nodded.
Rodeo continued, "But we found out something about the Stand group who we took it from."
"Tell me then."
"Alright."
One very long explanation later, pretty much a lot of people were surprised.
"NANI!?" Evan exclaimed. "You're saying the Spy from TF2 has become Silver Chariot!?"
"Yes, and they are hunting Amelia for some reason."
"So Chilli Pepper and Ride Me to Hell's user were indeed working together after all?" Sophia said.
""And he has the Hanged Man on his side?!!"" Both Simmons and Carson yelled out in shock.
"And you suspect that this Spy might have made a contract with one of the Foundation's enemies in exchange for Dr. Buck and the arrow?" Emma asked.
"And Dr. Buck and Agent Green unfortunately fell prey to the arrow and got a Stand?" Molly recalls one part of the explanation.
"Well Green's Stand has awakened but Amelia's Stand hasn't. Not yet at least. Green, show them."
"Cerberus."
Following his words, Cerberus appeared with his arms crossed and looked at the Stand gang.
":0 Oh my God. Your Stand looks awesome!" Michelle shouted in excitement.
"It seems powerful." Jeff said.
"THREE HEADS FOR THE PRICE OF ONE!" Psycho Kreig yelled loudly, usually.
"And it's quite buff as well." Evan said, gazing at the Stand's buff body that might rival his.
Carlos growls, not knowing what it meant.
"Thanks, but let's get back to the point." Green said.
"You're right. We now have a solid lead on who the French man is... which turned out to be the Spy. He has two Human Stands and three Stand Users on his side."
"And we know only one of the Stand users' names and faces. Jack Barton." Amelia claimed.
"He is the Stand user of Ride Me to Hell." Miguel added.
Nodding his head, Rodeo also added, "The other Stand user whose Stand goes by the name of Faded, we weren't able to get a good look of his face since he wore a mask."
"But N.I.T.R.O.N 's Stand user, we were able to get a very good look of what he looks like. So if we see him again we'll recognize him no doubt." Green said.
"But you almost turned the city into a battleground and you and the Spy's gang did some property damage and by luck, you weren't spotted by the public." Emma said.
"Yeah."
"And you stole someone's car." She added.
"Yeah that as well."
Emma sighs, "I'll tell an agent to put it back where it belongs. All in all I'm impressed, Rodeo and Miguel."
"Thanks."
"Gracias."
The gang then looks at the Stand arrow that Rodeo was still holding. And then Carson of all people asks Rodeo.
"Think I can get a Stand of my own if I get scratched by it?"
"You know how the arrows work right?"
"Yeah I do. Just saying it wouldn't hurt if I-"
"Carson, don't even think about it. The virus inside this Arrow head is merciless and will kill you if it deems you unworthy of giving a Stand." Rodeo said in a serious tone.
"Ok. Ok. Sheesh. I'm just saying. It's not like I want to get scratched by it right now. Unless the foundation-"
"The foundation will not try to make Stand users just for the sake of experimentation." Amelia immediately denies it, "Because if they do, we're not sure what type of Stand might be made and if it's a dangerous one we can't take the risk."
"Says the doctor who got scratched by it."
"I didn't want to get scratched by it. I never wanted any of this to happen."
"Well it sucks to be you then."
"Carson. Shut up." Rodeo deadpanly said.
"I have a question." Someone asked.
And this time... it was Gustav who was asking the question.
Amelia sighs, "What is it, Gustav?"
"Is there a chance that Spy's gang might try to raid Site-19 and try to get you and the arrow back?"
"Gustav. This site is well guarded and well fortified and given the dangerous anomalies and entities we have here, they wouldn't be that crazy to raid Site-19 without a plan."
*WHII—!* *WHII—!* *WHII—!*
The alarms started buzzing around the site which caught the gang's attention, and someone from the P.A. system announced.
[Warning! Six unknown entities have entered the facility. All Mobile Task Force members and guards take action and capture the entities. All D-class return to your respective cells and all foundation staff head for the designated safe zones. SCP lockdown procedures have been initiated and all SCP cells will be in permanent lockdown until the entities are captured. This is not a drill. I repeat. This is not a drill!]
"Well shit." Evan cursed externally.
[They are crazy enough to raid this place.] Sane Kreig said.
"Should we panic?" Michelle asked.
"No." Rodeo shook his head, everyone looked at him as he continued, "We will fight them and we will capture them. And I got a plan." He turned to Emma and Carlos, "Emma, gave me site-19's map and layout. And Carlos, bring the table in the middle of the room."
Following his words, Carlos lifts Emma's office table and puts it in the middle of the office, Emma meanwhile brings out a bunch of blue prints and papers from the file cabinets and places them on the table.
As everyone gathers around the table, Rodeo furrows his brows and starts to explain his plan.
"All right. We will use Amelia and the arrow as bait to draw Ride Me to Hell in this large room here because when we were dealing with Ride Me to Hell in the city, it said targets rather than target. Which means Ride Me to Hell is going to go after both of them and Spy's gang will follow Ride Me to Hell to find her and the arrow." He said while pointing to the map.
Amelia nodded, "Ok but will me and the Arrow be in this large room or-"
"No. You will be in the security room which is a bit far from this room here. When they try to pass by this room, we will force Ride Me to Hell to fight us and he will stay focused on us since we are interfering with its mission. But Ride Me to Hell has evolved from our last encounter."
"What do you mean?" Evan raised a brow.
"When me and Green were fighting Ride Me to Hell, it used whips made of flames and hurled fire balls at us. And be alert, those fireballs could turn the streets into a sea of flames."
"So it learned pyrokinesis."
"Yeah, so we need to be careful about it this time. Especially since Chilli Pepper, Spy, the Hanged Man, Faded and N.I.T.R.O.N are involved. But the problem is we still don't know much about Faded's other abilities."
"What about this N.I.T.R.O.N?" Molly asked.
"Let's just say it helps an average human to run at high speeds capable enough to catch up to a car or a motorbike. And the Stand is quite fast and agile like Chilli Pepper." Green explains.
"So it's a speedster Stand?"
"Yeah."
"Ok back to the point." Rodeo spoke, "We have no clue what Faded's other ability might be since we only know that it allows its user to fly and store items and weapons in it's top hat. So we should be careful when he uses that hidden short range or long range ability."
"Ok. But are all of you gonna fight them?" Johnson asked.
"Yeah me, Green and the Stands will fight them. Why do you ask?"
"I wish to volunteer."
"Me too." Simmons said.
"Count me in as well." Sophia follows.
"Wait, you want to fight the Human Stands or the Stand users?" Evan asked in concern.
"We'll go for both. That way we can support you because you're gonna need all the help you can get." Johnson said as he turned to Carson, "Carson, don't want to join us?"
Everybody then looked at Carson who was being silent, him wearing a mask made him look more eerie till he responded.
"...Well if we don't capture them, we won't know who their client is and I'm looking for some action. So count me in as well. Also if I die... please be at my funeral."
"Sure." Rodeo nodded before turning to face everyone present, "All right people, we're moving out. Also Krieg, are your bulbs off?"
[Yes they are.] Sane Krieg said, showing his fists.
"Good. Now let's move it."
Everyone nods and they head for their respective areas. Rodeo and the gang now needed to go on the defensive, and stop Spy's Stands faction here and now.
