Ruby's POV
"What?" she uttered dumbfounded as their attacks won't work on the pack of Manticores.
"They look kinda different." she heard Qrow said as he changed his sword to a scythe.
"POW!" Nora smashed one off the edge.
"They weren't supposed to be drooling like this..." Ren muttered as he kept firing. "That's because they shouldn't." Ospin said, taking note of the more bloodthirsty nature it had.
Blake severed a Manticore's leg, her eyes widened in horror as it grew back.
"Umm..." she turned her Gambol Shroud to a pistol and aimed it at the regenerating Manticore.
"Guys! Ripple seems to work!" they heard Yang announce as she punched one with the power of the sun.
"Oh thank goodness we have you on our team."
Ruby used her scythe to propel herself next to her sister.
"Yang!"
"Ora! Oh hey sis!" she smiled after smacking a pesky Manticore off the train.
"Can you somehow fuse bullets with hamon?"
The busty blonde stared at the ground in deep thought.
"I think I can..."
"Great. Get inside and use your ham thing to empower the ammunition." Qrow ordered as he fought a Sphinx.
"You heard the man, let's go!" Ruby grabbed her sister's hand.
They heard a freezing sound, they turned around to see a frozen Manticore.
"Go! I'll cover you!" Weiss yelled as she loaded her rapier with Dust.

Yang placed her hands to the ammunitions and concentrated.
"Ham... On! Eh, sis?" she smirked at her sister, who groaned at her lame pun.
"Ughhh! Is it working?" Ruby walked towards the windows and saw the shots effectively taking out the Grimms.
"It's melting them..." she stared at her beautiful Crescent Rose.
"Why aren't my baby's attacks working?"
After fusing all the ammos with the ripple, Yang began to think of explanations. She has always been a brute, but she can think just fine. Her eyes widened at the thought as the last Sphinx was gunned down by the train.
"It couldn't be..."
"Wut?" the redhead asked curiously as she saw her expression change.
"It probably sounds stupid, but... It's the only explanation I have in mind."
"What is it, Yang?" Ruby placed her hand on her shoulder, worried.
"Ruby. Do you remember what hamon wounds look like on the Pillar Men when JoJo fought them?"
"Yeah..?"
"Ordinary Grimms don't produce those wounds when I tried it on them back at Doctor Oobleck's mission... Which means..." the blonde slowly drifted away.
Her younger sister blinked and screamed "SAY IT, THE SUSPENSE IS KILLING ME!"
"THE GRIMMS OUTSIDE WERE UNDEAD!"
Joseph's POV
He was in the arena of the Amity Colosseum.
"... The hell? How did I got here?" he looked around and called out for Giorno.
The place is empty. Not a soul to be seen.
He failed to notice the faint sound of footsteps getting closer.
"Salutations."
He jumped at the voice and turned around to see Penny.
Trying to regain his composure from utter shock, he whispered. "Penny..?"
The girl giggled.
"JoJo. I wish you were there to see me."
"But I did watch you!"
"Affirmative. You WATCHED." the girl laughed monotonously.
"Penny..."
"You watched. But did you do anything besides that? DID YOU?!" the girl grabbed his shirt. "Did you..?"
The Joestar's hands started to shake.
"I tried! I tried to fix you! I did my best, I'm sorry..." Joseph's voice started to crack.
"You're not the only one I lost that day..."
"Well. Your apology is useless. Because no matter how much you say you are 'sorry'
You won't bring the dead back."
Those words rang the Joestar's brain.
His eyes went watery as he remembered Caesar. How they fought in the last moments they were together.
"I bet you failed to save them too, correct?"
"Please... Stop."
"Just a second too late, am I precise?"
He let his tears flow.
"Penny. I'm so sorry..." he hugged her petite figure.
The girl patted his back in comfort and whispered
"Me too."
His eyes opened as he felt his arms and neck being constricted.
Penny's thin ropes that controlled her blades, whatever those are, wrapped themselves around Joseph's limbs.
He gasped for air as the threads drew blood from his shoulder and neck.
Joseph woke up in shock as his metal hand was suddenly choking him.
"Grmpf! What the... Hell?!" he tried to hold it back with his right hand.
"Giorno..! Wake the fuck up!" he yelled for his uncle, who groaned and rubbed his eyes.
"Morning already?" as Giorno's vision grew clearer, the sight of Joseph being choked by his own hand shook him wide awake.
"What are you doing??"
"It's not... Me!" he held his hand down to the ground to see a Geist face possessing it. "What the hell are you?!" he screamed at his hand.
"GOLD EXPERIENCE!" GE tried to turn it into a squirrel. Bad idea. It slipped away from Joseph's grasp and bit the Joestar in the cheek.
"ARGH!"
"Spiacente!" the don apologized as he hastily turned it back to metal.
It reattached itself to Joseph's forearm but it kept grabbing his neck.
Gold Experience reared it's fist back.
"Stop!" Joseph gasped.
"It's going to push my fingers in to my throat!"
Giorno sighed, and tried to think.
Suddenly, Joseph's hand smashed the wall open and led him outside.
"Woah my GOOOOO-"
"Joseph!"
"What do I have... What do I have?!" Joseph gritted his teeth in enlightenment as he used Stone Free to strap his arm to a tree.
"It's trapped." Giorno ran over to him.
"Oh... We're trapped." Joseph mused as a bunch of Boarbatusk found them.
GE manifested besides Giorno as the blonde turned to face the herd.
"Well. I guess I won't expect a hand from you." the Italian Joestar nonchalantly uttered.
"Oh, ha ha."
The rest of the horde moved forward, revealing a shit ton of them hiding behind the trees.
"Oh my God..." Joseph muttered as Giorno slowly backed away from the snorting boar Grimms.
The taller Joestar glanced at his berserk hand, which is trying it's best to break free.
The Boarbatusk squealed and charged.
"Tch!" Giorno braced his stand. But suddenly a shield hit the Grimm's head and bounced through the others, ricochets back to the thrower's hand.
The two Joestars turned to the person who threw the shield.
"Hello again. JoJo."

I'LL BE THE ROUNDABOUT!
Hehe, guess who?
