Twilight's Bizarre Adventure: Memories of the Wind

Celestia looked the surgeon in the eye. "Well? How is she?"

"We had to work with what she did to herself during the incident. She did the best she could."

Rainbow bit her lip. Fluttershy went pale. Twilight's eye was twitching.

"Which is far better than I thought. I believe her familiarity with a needle and thread, her eye for detail, and the presence of an anatomy book helped her do what she wanted. We injected antibiotics into her intestines, reattached some connective tissue that was severed, and applied burn cream to her stomach. She'll need to go back to the hospital to have her stitches removed and get another dose of antibiotics, but that's about it."

Rainbow's ears perked up. "Wait, so she'll be fine?"

"Of course I will."

The surgeon turned around. The other surgeon was pushing Rarity out of the tent. "Miss Rarity? You're already awake?"

Rarity giggled. "I think the anesthetic ran out. I'll be honest, knowing a numbing spell really saved my life. I probably wouldn't have been able to do half of what saved my life without it."

Pinkie raised an eyebrow. "Why do you know that spell?"

Secco stepped towards Rarity. "She said something about her sister needing it."

One of the surgeons gasped. "If she needs a numbing spell regularly-"

"She just gets in a lot of accidents that bang her up a bit. Her and her friends." Rarity's smile faded a bit. "Paper Angels."

Celestia tilted her head. "Pardon?"

"There was another Stand User there. Well, another Stand. The user was somewhere else."

Rainbow was suddenly at Rarity's side. "Wait! So, one of the Angels was there?"

Secco's eye twitched. "To think that one of the Angels was there and I didn't see them at all. What were they-"

"Hold on a second." Celestia turned full-on towards Secco. "Who are the Angels?"

Secco stared at his boss, then whipped around. "Sandbar! You were supposed to tell her!"

"Me? You're the one that spends more time around her! You should have told her!"

"Don't pin this on-"

"Boys." It was quiet, but Celestia's tone was very telling. "Why did you not both tell me?"

Sandbar and Secco looked like they were about to drop a deuce right there.

"I would rather hear about something too much than not hear about it at all." She turned around. "Rainbow Dash. You seem to know who the Angels are. Why don't you tell me?"

Rainbow nodded. "They're a hit team of Stand Users. They strike without leaving any evidence aside from a calling card in the shape of an angel. The only known members are Angel of Darkness, Concrete Angel, and, well, Paper Angels."

Celestia scratched the back of her head. "Well, they must not be a very good hit team if I haven't heard of them."

Twilight glanced over her other friends. One was biting her lip. The second one's face was blank. The last one's eyebrow was twitching.

"Wait. Hold on." Celestia placed a hoof on the stretcher. "Could Wild Angels be one of their members?"

Rainbow shrugged. "It's possible. At least, Sandbar's other contacts think that."

Celestia's eyes went wide as she turned around. "How many other Stand users knew about them?"

Sandbar and Secco both cringed.

"What do you think about all of this?"

Everyone looked at Twilight, who seemed to be looking at Starlight.

Starlight scratched her ear. "Uh, well."

Twilight then walked past Starlight and Luna to... an empty corner. "You've been pretty quiet. Or did you think nobody noticed you?"

A pair of disembodied eyes opened. "Of course you noticed me."
