"Two days," Johnny muttered to himself as he read a departure schedule. "Two days until the boat leaves for Thailand… I need to get there quicker."

He was in the south of Asia on a journey to Japan. He made frequent stops in order to avoid any pursuers from the American government, but it was severely slowing him down. With his wife sick, Johnny had unleashed a great power which he hoped would be able to save her. He promised himself that he would bring it right back…

"Excuse me, sir," a hooded figure began, Johnny slowly turning his head towards them. "I couldn't help but overhear what you said, and I was wondering if you would be needing any accommodations in the meantime."

Johnny subtly raised an eyebrow while adjusting the sailor cap he was then wearing. He had no idea of this person's intentions so he decided to be wary of his situation, especially on the nearly empty harbor.

"… It appears that I will… and I can assume that you can provide some accommodations for me?"

The figure chuckled, "Why, yes! Of course I can! I can take you to my hotel. Just let me take your bag for y-"

"I'll be able to carry it just fine, thank you," Johnny snapped, pulling his bag away from the figure as they began to reach for it.

Their face fell before they looked over his shoulder and slowly nodded. Johnny's eyes widened as he felt two other people approach him from behind. He tried to jump out of the way as pink stars began to appear on his hand, but his arm was suddenly restrained by one of the people while the other one grabbed his suitcase. The figure removed their hood to reveal themselves to be a female with brown, shoulder-length hair which curled up at the ends. The Stand user, of course, was all too familiar with this particular hairstyle as it was associated with the American government.

"Johnny Joestar, you're under arrest," she stated. "The contents of that suitcase do not belong to you."

"They don't belong to anyone, especially not any of Valentine's fanatics!" he shouted as his fingernail began to spin.

"Watch what you say about President Valentine!" the second man, trying to pry the suitcase out of Johnny's hand, exclaimed. "We know what you did to him during the race!"

He then kicked the Stand user in the knee, causing him to buckle and fall to his knees. As he fell, he fired a spinning fingernail into the ground which frightened the man who was restraining that arm. The hole created by the nail then started to move towards the suitcase. Once it was close enough, the hole seemed to attack the handle which caused Johnny and the man to release their hold on the suitcase. Unfortunately, once the handle was attacked, the suitcase began to open, revealing the true objective of the race from all those years ago.

Johnny's eyes widened as he lunged for it, shouting, "NO!"

The second man lunged for the corpse at the same time, and managed to touch it first. However, once they did touch it, he felt a powerful shock which sent him flying back.

"Brian!" the woman yelped in surprise, completely oblivious to Johnny scurrying to close the suitcase again. "What happened to you?!"

The second man, or 'Brian,' quickly sat up and jumped to his feet which confused the first man.

"I understand, Mr. President," Brian said with a serious tone, electricity beginning to lightly surge around him. "He needs to be punished for what he has done to you and our country."

The other two government officials backed away as Johnny defensively held the suitcase behind him and raised his star-patterned hand while a pink creature appeared at his side.

"So that's how you did it…" Brian growled as what seemed like a small storm cloud began to form around him. "Let's see what I can do now!"

He pointed at Johnny which then made a lightning bolt shoot out of the storm cloud, but before it reached him, the lightning bolt turned into a winch. The star-spangled man fired a fingernail which knocked the winch away before it then curved and hooked itself into Johnny's left hand. He screamed in pain while Brian laughed in surprise at the winch now sticking out of the storm cloud. Out of curiosity, he touched the end of the winch that was in the cloud, but that made the winch disappear and released Johnny from its grasp. Despite the immense pain he felt from the gaping hole in his hand, Johnny fired several fingernails into Brian's chest while he was distracted.

"I… I've seen that ability before," Johnny said, breathing heavily. "During the race… I encountered someone with a similar ability…"

"Pork Pie Hat Kid," Brian muttered as he struggled to stand up. "I just seemed to have copied his ability, which he called Wired… Perhaps that is the ability that the corpse has given me."

"But that's impossible!" Johnny exclaimed. "The only way anyone can get a Stand is in a Devil's Palm!"

"And how do you think they got that power? The corpse gave them that power!"

"Brian, stop!" the woman shouted. "We just need to bring him and the corpse back to America, not fight him!"

"In honor of President Valentine, I shall attempt to mimic his ability…" the man started, appearing to have completely ignored what she just said while Johnny's eyes widened. "From Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, I name my ability… HIGH VOLTAGE!"

Suddenly, another lightning bolt shot out, but it quickly transformed into the late President's Stand ability, D4C, which wielded an American flag. Moving as fast as lightning, the echo of a Stand rushed forward and covered Johnny with the flag before flattening it to the ground. A few seconds after, the Stand and the flag disappeared and showed no signs of Johnny or the suitcase. After a moment of silence, the first man said in an annoyed tone, "Goddammit, Johnson! Now look what you've done! It took us long enough to find him here and now we've lost him again! … Johnson?"

"Brian?" the woman asked as she slowly approached him.

The storm cloud around him disappeared as the blood stains from the spinning fingernails continued to grow larger.

"Dojyaaa~n…" he whispered before falling face-down.

-To Be Continued


Author's Note:

It's been a while, but I've finally been able to get around to continuing this story! This chapter onwards is probably going to be a more serialized story which will include Johnny in the story of Fates. The next chapter should bring in the Fire Emblem characters and explain how it is that Johnny got there.

I hope you're all just as excited to read the rest of it as I am to write it!
