Meanwhile, some ways away from the main group - but not so far that the group is out of sight - a portal opens and two figures fall out of it, both female. While both are wearing rather...odd outfits that I'm not even going to try and describe, they still have distinct differences. For instance, one has her hair done up in buns and has noticeable green highlights in it, and is wearing a primarily black outfit with some patterns on it, while the other has her hair down in braids and is only wearing green clips in her hair, and her outfit is primarily green.

These two are Jolyne Cujoh and Hermès Costello respectively.

The latter of the two - Hermès - looks at herself with wide eyes, panting a bit as her expression turns from surprise to a shaky grin. "Heh...I...I thought that damn priest had me for sure, but I guess his 'fate' or whatever didn't work out...for...wait..."

Her expression now turns to confusion as she looks at herself. "The fuck? I don't have any of my injuries at all...wait...Jolyne..."

Hermès turns to look at Jolyne, who is currently examining her body with a concentrated look on her face. "You don't have any of your injuries either! We're not even near any water anymore! The fuck!? What the fuck is going on!?"

Jolyne looks at Hermès. What Hermès hasn't realized yet is that she did get killed, and is now back from the dead somehow. That itself raises a lot of questions, but how neither of them have any of their injuries from the battle they were just fighting, or how they got here in the first place, also raises plenty of questions...

"I have no idea...but I do know this." Jolyne gets up. "Whatever this is, this isn't some kind of enemy Stand. This is something unnatural. Whatever's happening right now, it isn't something that can normally happen, but it also isn't something that can be caused by any one thing. And we weren't the only ones affected - look over there."

Hermès looks over to where Jolyne is pointing, and her eyes widen. "Is that...Foo Fighters? I-I can't believe it...I thought she...hey! Heeeeeeey! F.F.! FOO FIGHTERS, LOOK OVER HERE! Dammit, I don't think she can hear me..."

"Sure seems like it." Jolyne nods.

"...well, I guess we better start running, huh?" With a smirk on her face, Hermès gets up in a sprinting position, before pausing after a moment. "Hey, Jolyne. Do you hear something?"

Jolyne looks at Hermès in confusion. "I...don't hear anything right now..."

Hermès sighs, getting up on her feet. "I know this is going to sound stupid, but...I swear, for some goddamn reason, I'm hearing a train. Stupid, right? I mean, do you see any train tracks around here? How the hell is a train supposed to-"

Hermès is then interrupted by several rapid clanking noises a few feet behind her. She looks, and for a moment, she can see a set of train tracks materializing out of thin air, with each new track coming out within seconds.

This is, of course, before the blue bullet train comes speeding down the rails.

The train lets out a whistle as it passes by, going so fast that it causes a large gust of wind that forces both of the women to look away.

"A train that makes it's own tracks? W'hat kind of bullshit is this!?" 'Hermès yells, having trouble hearing herself due to the noise the train is making.

Of course, the train goes by as fast as it comes, and when the two are finally able to look after the train, they're able to see the train disappear into a iridescent portal in the sky.

"...so...what the fuck just happened there?" Hermès asks out loud. She scratches her head, looking around in confusion...but then she notices something. "Eh?"

Jolyne looks over at where Hermès is looking. Not only did the train passing by make a lot of noise, it also kicked up a good deal of dust. And in the cloud of dust, there's now a figure in blue armor with a red visor sitting there on a motorcycle, with a large blue sword slung over his shoulder as he looks at the two women.

"...wait...was that train...was that train that guy's entrance!? It was, wasn't it?" Hermès looks over at Jolyne, then looks at the guy in the dust, and growls, walking over to him. "Hey! Hey, you! Who do you think you are, showing up and trying to look cool with that train? I mean, it worked, but that doesn't make you any less of a show-off! What do you have to say for yourself?"

The man in the armor simply looks at Hermès, his face unreadable due to his helmet. "Get on."

Hermès blinks. "...what? What shit are trying to pull here?"

"I'm not trying to 'pull' anything." The man replies, leaning back a bit. "You two are related to my secondary objective, so I figured I'd drop myself off here."

"...Secondary objective?" Jolyne asks.

The armored man leans towards the two. "Finding out why people from an erased timeline - with some being dead in said timeline - are here in this mess."

The two women are silent, before Hermès speaks up. "What do you-"

"The primary objective is what that bird's carrying." The man gestures to Ho-Oh and the Luckslugget. "Apparently, it's a lot more valuable than it looks, but I wasn't able to get any details besides that. Seems like your friend's trying to get to it, too. We can pick her up as I go."

The two are silent for a moment.

"Hermès..." Jolyne looks over at Hermès. "I feel like, whoever this is, he may have some answers for us. If nothing else, let's stick with him to try and figure out what's going on."

Hermès remains silent for another moment, before sighing. "Fine...pretty sure this'll be faster and less exhausting than running, anyway..."

The two get on the motorcycle. After making sure they're secured, the armored man turns forward, revs up his motorcycle, and speeds off, quickly catching up with the main group.

When they do, Foo Fighters looks over in confusion. "What the..."

''"Hey, F.F.! Long time, no see!" ''Hermès waves. "Get your ass on here! We've got a lot to catch up on!"
