These next three chapters were kinda short, the last three chapters in the Diamond is Unbreakable arc. And for this one I kinda had to wax poetical to make the one-thousand word quota I set myself. So to make up for that, I'll be temporarily breaking my usual posting schedule and posting all three on the same day. Hope you don't mind.

Kira found himself in the middle of an alley. He grinned. "I did it! I managed to activate Bites the Dust!" This was his moment. He had managed to beat all his rivals. He was so happy he started laughing. "To think they nearly had me. But fate once again favors me." He then realized something. "Although... For some reason I remember setting it off. That shouldn't be possible. And I'm nowhere near where I was an hour ago." He rubbed the back of his head, and felt it was sticky.

As he was wondering what was going on, a passing bird flew right through him. "What was that!? It looked like that bird flew close to me. I've never seen birds get so close to a human." He looked around. "And I don't recognize this place. I should be on my way to work, instead I'm in some random alleyway. What time is it?" He saw his watch was missing. "Come to think of it, during the last loop I spilled some coffee and got a burn, so I put the watch in my front pocket. Then it got broken when Josuke hit me with that glass shard. But it should be fixed now."

He pulled out the watch and gasped. The watch was still broken, and at the exact time Kira had been struck. "That's impossible! I know I activated Bites the Dust! So why is my watch still broken!?" "You don't know, do you?," Reimi said as she approached. He turned around. He was confused as to who this woman was. "Looks like Little Rohan and the others found you in your disguise as Takashi Yamashita," Reimi said, "And drove you into a corner."

"Who are you?," Kira asked. Reimi smirked. "I'm not surprised you don't remember. It's been fifteen years, after all, and in that time you've claimed many more victims. I wouldn't expect you to remember everyone you killed. But more importantly, you've experienced something so shocking, it's impossible for you to imagine." She grinned. "You see, Yoshikage Kira... You're already dead." Kira's eyes widened. "What!? That's impossible!"

"See for yourself," Reimi said, as she passed her hand through Kira's body, shocking him to his core. "But how...? I know activated Bites the Dust... It should have protected me..." "It would be inconceivable for you to believe fate could turn against you," Reimi noted, "So in your delusion you believed you had saved yourself. But allow me to show you something. The memories locked deep within your mind... The memories of your death!" Kira gasped as the memories flooded back to him. Those horrifying final moments that he had blocked out under the belief that they had all been a horrible dream.

Kira had been preparing to turn the nurse into his new catalyst for Bites the Dust. Unlike Riku, she'd have no idea to stop telling people who he was, and he didn't have to tell her his secrets. Yes Pinkie's Stand would protect them, but the point was to buy time to escape. There was no choice anymore. Leaving Morioh was his only option left to maintain a quiet life. Jotaro ran toward him. Even if he stopped time from that distance, time would likely start again before he got too far.

"This is it!," Kira said, "You've hit your limit!" But before he could push the detonator, Killer Queen's hand suddenly became heavier. Kira gasped, seeing Echoes Act 3 nearby. "Act 3! 3 Freeze!," it called out, "He's now within five meters! S-H-I-T!" Kira grabbed his wrist. "Damn you, you little shits! I'm not done yet!" He tried to lift his hand enough to lift the detonator. But too late. "Star Platinum, THE WORLD!" Jotaro breathed a sigh of relief. "Thanks Koichi," he said, "You're a reliable guy."

He saw Pinkie still moving thanks to her own Stand and smirked. "Gimme a break... Let me guess, you want payback?" "This man killed my father," Pinkie said, "And sent my mother into a panic she still hasn't fully recovered from. So long as he's in Morioh, there can be no smiles. Jotaro, please. Let me be the one to finish him." Jotaro smirked. "Sure, one thing first." Star Platinum broke Killer Queen's hand. "It'd be worthless if he could still somehow press that switch."

Pinkie smiled. She thought about all the friends she made since this adventure began. Josuke, Koichi, Jotaro, Fluttershy, Jolyne, Okuyasu, Yukako, Kakyoin, Joseph, Rohan, Yuya, Nu, Shigechi, Tonio, Aya. 'For the sake of my friends... For the sake of my family... For the sake of all people who will never find peace because none but us know they are dead.' Smile emerged. 'This man... Who takes smiles away just because he wants to... I WILL NEVER FORGIVE HIM!' "SMILE!" "WARAIRAIRAIRAIRAIRAIRAIRAIRAI!"

Kira started to remember. It all happened in a flash. 'That girl... The one who could control the toon world. I vaguely saw her there. But... That wouldn't have killed me. There's no way they would kill me, they couldn't justify it. There's something I'm missing... But what...?' The memories were starting to flow, Reimi could see it in his eyes. The trauma that occurred, the disbelief that it could occur. The idea that fate could turn against him was foreign.

Of course, fate and luck are two different things. Kira's luck ran out when one Jojo met another. This created a ripple of fate. While the story started with the hunt for a truly psychopathic killer, no one was expecting to run into another one in Morioh. But even Kira could not remain hidden until his dying day. The second people started getting on his trail more actively, Kira's true fate was sealed. He tried to fight it, not even realizing he was.

There was a certain duality between Kira and Josuke that was undeniable. It's why they were destined to be enemies. But Pinkie was also a duality. Cheerful and extroverted versus apathetic and introverted. Dedicated to cheering people up, dedicated to a solitary life. A power that could control space around her, and a power that could manipulate time. Josuke is the main hero, but one could argue that Pinkie is the real main character in this story. And this story, is nearly over.
