It's Showtime

– Break Room, Site-19 - 9:32 AM –

Right now, Green was in the break room taking his usual coffee while sitting on a chair. It was silent for a moment until the door opened which revealed to be Evan. 

"Hey, Green."

"Hey Evan. What brings you here?"

"Oh I wanted to ask why did you dye your hair? It looks great. Don't get me wrong. But what's the occasion for?"

"Welll, it's Amelia.... she wants talk about something while going out."

"Oh so you two are going out on a date, huh? My man." Evan said while giving a thumbs up. 

"It's nothing like that, Evan. She wants to talk, that's all."

"Nope, it's definitely a date."

"Ok it's sort of a date. But she's not gonna confess anything. Even though I already told her how I feel about her that day."

"What?"

"Let me explain." 

Green starts to explain regarding the events that happened in the elevator.

"Oh shit!" Evan yelled out in surprise, "You two almost had a moment and it was ruined by a bunch of damn elevator lights?! That's bullshit."

"Uhhh yeah." 

Evan grabs him by the collar and brings his face close to his face and asks seriously, "Did she tell you where she wants to talk?"

"She didn't tell me where, but she did say that she wanted to talk about it today."

"...dude, I think she wants to confess to you of how she feels."

"What?!"

"Think about it, Green. You already told her how you feel for her that day and now I think she gonna respond back, wanting to tell you how she feels about you too!"

"Uhhh, I think that's not the case."

"Oh come on, Green. You've known her for years. She even visited you when you were on a bed sick.... which Rodeo told me. You even kept her safe from 'Ride Me to Hell' and you even told her why you hid your past as well and she understood your problems." 

Evan lets go of his collar and continues, "Green, if I find out that somebody messed up your two's moments again.... I will road rolla you to oblivion."

"You really want to see us go out, huh?"

"I'm just saying enjoy yourself."

"Thanks, I guess." Green smiles before looking at his coffee to see the cup was empty, so he heads for the trash can and throws it.

"Well see you later then. Wish me luck." Green waved Evan goodbye before leaving the room.

Seeing him leave, Evan mumbled, "Hmm... let's just hope nothing goes wrong."

– In a Hallway, Site-19 - 10:00 AM–

Rodeo, who was still in a wheelchair, was being pushed by Michelle as the two were going down the hallway till they saw Evan approaching them.

"Hi, Evan." Rodeo waved at him.

"Hey man. Still stuck on that wheel chair?"

".....If I get off this wheelchair, I feel like Amelia might yell at me for not listening."

"Yep, she's taking every precaution to make sure your wounds don't reopen." Evan then looked at Michelle and brought out a handsome smirk.

"And how are you doing~?"

"Jerk."

"Predictable." Evan said calmly, but you could see the depression in his eyes. "....so Green's going out today with Amelia."

"Like a date?" Michelle asked.

"Yeah. What do you think, Rodeo....? Rodeo?"

Both looked at Rodeo to see shadows covering his eyes and he was tapping the right arm rest of his wheelchair with his right hand index finger.

"The enemy might catch wind of this."

""What?""

"Evan, call all the Stands on the rooftop and only the Stands. No one else." Rodeo ordered in a serious tone.

"Right." Evn nodded and was about to time stop but he stopped when Rodeo called him out, giving him another note.

"Yeah?"

"Don't forget to give Miguel an umbrella."

———————————————————————

– Rooftop, Site-19 - 10:10 AM –

The Stand gang gathered on the rooftop, while Miguel was holding an umbrella which protected him from the sun. 

"Why are we here?" Jeff asked.

"The enemy is going to strike." Rodeo immediately answered.

"What?! When?!" Miguel asked.

Rodeo answers, "The thing is not about when they will strike..... but it's who they're going after."

[Who are they going after?] Sane Kreig asked.

"Dr. Amelia Buck."

"The foundation scientist? What about her?"

Rodeo looked at Jeff who was the one asking the question. 

"She's a target for the Stand users and the Human Stands. I still don't know why the enemy wants her, but if what Evan says is true, then the enemy might already know that they're going out."

"But what would they gain from her, amigo?" Miguel asked.

"I still don't know, Miguel. But I have a very crazy and stupid idea that just might work."

"WE ARE READY TO HEAR THE WISE WORDS OF THE KITTEN!" Kreig in his psycho persona yelled.

"Now look guys, we still don't know whether the two Human Stands and the Stand user that Jeff fought in France are connected to Ride Me to Hell, the French man and Chilli Pepper. What I do know is Ride Me to Hell was after Amelia, it followed her from her apartment and failed after me, Evan and Carlos stopped him, so no doubt the Stand user will try again but this time he might have help on his side. Now whether Chilli pepper is working with Ride Me to Hell's user or not it's still a mystery but.... today might be a good opportunity to capture the faction and find out why they're after Amelia, and if we're lucky they might even have a Stand arrow in possession as well and we just might be able to kill two birds with one stone. No offense Carlos."

Carlos nods in understanding. 

"So you want us to follow Amelia and Green in a stealthy way and wait for the Stand users or Human Stands to attack and then take them out, forcibly make them tell us who they're working for and if they have a Stand arrow in possession, we ask them about that as well. That's your plan, right?" Evan asked and recalled the things Rodeo explained.

"Yes."

"Even if you're right about this Rodeo..... shouldn't we warn Amelia and Green or the others about this?" Says Jeff.

"If we warn them now, the enemy might know and switch gears and might go for a different approach or better yet they might go into hiding and wait for weeks or months, something which we don't have time for while the other Stand factions, organizations and entities out there in the world are looking for the Arrows. This might be a good chance for us that we can't go to waste. Also I want to keep Amelia safe as well. She's.... family." 

Everyone looked at each other for a moment, until Jeff spoke.

"Fine. But who should go after Green and Amelia?"

"Since Site-19 contained some very dangerous entities that we cannot risk breaching containment..... Evan, Carlos, Jeff, Kreig and Michelle, you'll stay here in case they break from containment or if another faction tries to attack the site. Me and Miguel will follow Green and Amelia."

"But amigo, you're still injured and-"

"I'll be fine. I don't care about the wounds and don't forget I can use Bites the Dust in case things go downhill, and guys, trust me on this."

The rest of the Stands looked at each other and then back at Rodeo's direction.

"So are we in agreement?"

[Your idea's crazy kid. But we've seen crazy people in our world pull off some big things with those ideas. Count us in.] Sane Kreig agreed.

"WE ARE READY FOR THE RIB CAGE SLAUGHTER!" His personality suddenly changes back to the psycho one as it shouted loudly, also agreeing Rodeo's plan.

"I'll trust your crazy idea, man. Even though we just met today. You've caught my interest, Rodeo." Jeff agreed.

"I'll definitely go with your idea." Evan said.

"Me too." Michelle followed.

Carlos growls. 

"Your concern for Dr. Buck is truly admirable. Like a son worrying for her mother's safety. I'll follow your lead, amigo. We'll put this Stand faction on its knees and execute justice on them." Miguel said.

"Thanks guys. Now let us begin."

– Underground Parking Lot, Site-19 - 11:00 PM –

Evan, Miguel and Rodeo, who still had bandages wrapped around his body but he was not in a wheelchair as he and the two were standing next to the emergency staircase waiting for Amelia and Green to arrive. 

"You both better not get yourselves killed out there." Evan said.

"Don't worry. We'll be alright." Rodeo replies as he begins to remove the bandages from his body then blows them up to atoms with his bomb. Miguel noticed some new and old scars on Rodeo's body. Let's just say he was shocked and surprised. 

"Querido dios."

"Yeah it's not pretty, Miguel."

"Rodeo, think about this one more time. Are you sure you want to do this?" Evan asked, feeling even more doubtful.

"Yes. I'm sure."

"Hold up. I hear something." Miguel announced.

Evan opens the door, letting the three take a peek and see Amelia and Green entering a car. Green was on the driver's seat while Amelia was on the front seat. 

"Za warudo."

In an instant, time had stopped and the world became black and gray. As time comes to a halt, he grabs both Miguel and Rodeo and puts them underneath the car before heading back for the door.

"Time moves once more."

Following his words, time moved once again with Rodeo and Miguel found themselves underneath the car. Miguel sinks his lower body into the car's shadow leaving only his top body exposed while Rodeo holds onto the car's belly with his hands and feet. 

"So once the car starts moving you'll be in the shadow of the car and you will be moving along with the car as well right?" Rodeo asked quietly.

"Si, but the same cannot be said for you, want me to hold your back so that you don't get more cuts?"

"Fine."

Miguel then holds his back to make sure when the car starts moving his back doesn't get scratched along the road. At that moment, they both heard the car's engine start and at the next second, the car drove out of the parking lot. 

Evan who saw them go sayed, "Good luck, you two."

– Down the Road –

Inside the car, Amelia was looking outside the window while Green was driving with their seat belts on, totally not knowing that Miguel and Rodeo were underneath the car.

"So where are we heading?" Green asked.

"There's an urban park in a city that's only a half hour away."

"I was expecting a cafe or restaurant. Don't like crowded places I presume?"

"No, it feels more peaceful and quiet in a park."

"I know you want to talk to me alone but still don't want to grab something to eat while we talk?"

"No. I'm not hungry, Agent Green."

"Alright then."

As the two continue to talk, just outside a few tens of meters from the cat, on top of a lamppost, Alvin was able to see the car heading down the road, as he caught them in his line of sight, he quickly disappeared into the lamppost. 

While moving through the power lines, he murmured with a light chuckle.

"It's showtime."
