"His Stand attacks from somewhere within this darkness." Josuke murmured into y/n's ear as they peered into the darkness.

"I can send Gentle's mist out to survey the area," y/n sighed when Josuke gave her a face of worry, she pinched his cheeks and pulled on it gently.
"Don't give me that face I can do it."

As Gentle emitted the mist, y/n took a small step forward and held in a gasp as her body faded into the mist.
So this was the mist travelling she did during her fight with Josuke, as the mist got thicker, y/n noticed that her body submerged in the mist became more transparent.

Behind her, Josuke was talking with Okuyasu who had asked him why he treated his wounds.

"Why did you treat my wounds?" Okuyasu seemed to have asked that about three times already, the previous answers from Josuke not answering the question at all.

"I'm not very smart so you have to tell me!" he pointed at the wound on Josuke's hand. "You got this from grabbing onto your friend that grabbed onto me! Oi y/n! Why did you save me too?"

"I wanna know why you both went through all that to save me."

"There's no deep reason," Josuke replied as y/n stepped away from the mist a little, crossing her arms and looking at Okuyasu.

"'There's no reason for him to die,' that's what I thought back there." y/n felt her lips curl up a little when Josuke said that.
He was such a kind hearted boy.

"I hope his answer suffices, we have things to do," y/n slid into the mist and walked through the hallway, sticking close to the wall.

The house was silent, which would have been a good thing if y/n could see properly. Even though the sun was shining brightly outside, hardly any light got into the house due to the boarded up windows.
Y/n considered taking the boards down but it would risk Okuyasu's older brother knowing that someone had entered the house.

"Y/n," she heard Josuke call out softly, she turned around to see him creeping in, staying close to the walls just like she did. "Where does Koichi's blood trail lead?" y/n edged sideways to grab a hold on his sleeve, Josuke jumping in surprise when she tugged his sleeve.

"Don't scare me like that."

"Sorry I forgot I was in the mist," y/n followed the blood trail, Josuke behind her and stopped at the foot of a flight of stairs.

"It leads up there," a somewhat loud creak came from the steps as y/n pressed her foot against the first step.

Josuke grabbed her wrist, "Are you sure it's safe?" his eyes darted around furtively.

"Are you scared? You can hold my wrist if you want," y/n replied.

"N-no i'm not I'm just afraid that the enemy's Stand will be hiding in the shadows nearby!" y/n turned around and patted Josuke's hand.

"Stop fretting, you'll save me won't you?" she turned around and continued up the steps, Josuke sighing behind her.

Y/n felt her heart pound loudly in her chest as the both of them slowly ascended the stairs, every step they took seemed to be more difficult than the previous.

As they neared the final few steps , y/n felt the tension in her stomach slowly start to disappear.

Looks like everything was-

"I still have more questions Josuke!"

Both y/n and Josuke jumped , whipping their heads around to see Okuyasu, that mad lad had followed them in.
