Howdy men and women. Now it's time for a new chapter. After an unexpected but quick battle against the enraged Josuke and the not so inexperienced Dwayne Junior, a new party has been introduced in the form of Chris McLean. He doesn't seem to be a threat, but what does he want?
Aztec 13: A good eye and an enthusiastic reader. I suggest you start watching Jojo.
The new appearance of the Host with the Most, Chris McLean, has the two confused, as the weird phenomenon happening with everyone in the reunion forgetting about the battle that just took place and forgetting that the two were even there.
"Chris McLean?!" Junior exclaims. "Hold up, did you mention the Fantasy Heroes and the Cape Canaveral Gravity Shift?!"
"Wait, who is this guy?" Josuke says, not recognising the man.
"Okay, that's just rude. Chris McLean? Host of Total Drama? You should at least have heard of me." Chris states.
"Ugh…" Josuke tries to think if he has heard of the name.
The three then walk out of the party room while Josuke still tries to recognise who Chris McLean is.
"I don't like it when people don't recognise me. Even more so if said person is also a Stand User like me." Chris says. "But, I'm smart enough not to insult your hair out of spite."
"Hold on, a Stand? You mean the abilities we have?" Junior asked.
"Yeah, a Stand. The ability you guys almost used to trash the hotel and give the media another slap of impossible events." Chris says. "If it does, it's gonna get chaotic. And when it's chaotic, the network will be too busy for Reality TV. And if the network is too busy for Reality TV, I will probably not be able to host something in the next few months."
"Ah, yeah, maybe we did get a little heated." Josuke says. "But still, I have a question. Have you seen other Stand Users here in Toronto?"
"Eh, not sure. I was busy trying to figure out what my Stand does." Chris says.
"Hey, I still have a question I still haven't been enlightened with." Junior barges in. "What the fuck is a Stand? How come the others can't see it?!"
"Ugh, alright kid. Listen closely." Josuke says. "A Stand is an extension of one's fighting spirit, an unlocked ability of our psyche."
"So… how did I get one?" Junior asked.
"Well, you come from a strange family." Josuke says while scratching the back of his head. "Due to… something, I don't really know, everyone bearing Joestar blood, and the star birthmark, are all able to receive the power of a Stand."
"So… just because I am related to you, I got my Quartz Baron." Junior asked.
"Well, that's just part of it." Josuke says. "Do you happen to have been struck by an arrow by any chance?"
"An arrow, huh?" Junior thought for a bit. "I… don't seem to remember."
"I have been struck by an arrow, if you're wondering." Chris speaks up.
This grabs the attention of the other two, who turn to him invested.
"Hold on, you were struck by an arrow once?" Junior asked.
"An arrow?!" Josuke exclaimed.
"Yeah, the Stand Arrow. I was struck by it." Chris asked. "The Speedwagon Foundation told me about it while I was recovering from the wound."
"When were you struck?!" Josuke asked.
"Eh, I don't know. Two months ago maybe?" Chris says.
"The arrow that can be used to awaken Stands! And one of them is here!" Josuke yelled. "Jotaro must have known about this, I better tell someone about this!"
Josuke ran from the scene, leaving the two to themselves.
"Hold on, an arrow can unlock Stands?" Junior asked. "What is he on about?"
"He's saying there are arrows that can unlock one's Stand ability. One of them is somewhere here in Toronto." Chris says. "You mentioned getting your Stand a month ago, right? You remember getting struck by an arrow?"
"No, I don't." Junior states.
"Huh, weird. Usually, that's a way someone can get a Stand." Chris states. "Well, I'm off. When you walk back in, they will have no memory of the fight that had occured."
"Alright." Junior says. "But wait, what is your Stand first?! Can I see it?"
"I'll let you see my Stand someday. In the meantime, try controlling the power of your Quartz Baron." Chris says. "I notice the volatility and speed of the growth of your crystals. I suggest keeping it controlled."
Chris then walks behind a corner, but Junior has some more questions.
"Hey wait!" Junior asked.
He ran behind the corner where Chris had walked off to, but was surprised to see that he had disappeared.
"What the?" Junior was flabbergasted by this. "How did he do that?"
As Junior looked around, he quickly realised that he had disappeared quickly.
"Huh, weird. But considering the nature of these abilities, I shouldn't be surprised." Junior states. "Is this Stand thing linked to the Acceleration? The Gravity Shift? I have so many questions."
Junior walks to the door to the party room. Suddenly, he hears his phone begin to ring he picks it up to see that it was his dad, Dwayne Senior, and answers.
"Yes Dad?" Junior asked.
"Well, sorry kiddo, I can't be able to take a leave today." Dwayne says.
"Man, that's a bit of a bummer, since almost everyone else in the race is here." Junior says.
"Hmm, it sucks, but I still have work to do." Dwayne says.
Suddenly, Junior is reminded of the encounter, and decides to try something.
"Hey, dad?" Junior asked.
"Yes, kiddo?" Dwayne asked.
"You remember the star-shape birthmark I have?" Junior asked.
"Yeah? What about it?" Dwayne asked.
"Well… I'm thinking either you or Mom has the same birthmark." Junior asked. "Do you have the same birthmark."
"Well, I can safely say that I don't have a star birthmark. I'm sure of it, I've looked at myself in the mirror countless times." Dwayne says.
"Okay then…" Junior comments on this. "I would ask Mom since she is probably the one with the same birthmark, but she's still on that business trip."
"Yeah, it's really stressing her out." Dwayne says.
"Anyways, bye Dad. Love ya." Junior says as he hung up and enters the party room.
We cut to Josuke in his pretty well furnished hotel room in a call with Jolyne.
"Looks like your father's assumptions were right, there is another arrow here." Josuke says.
"Hmm, that would be bad for the residents in Toronto." Jolyne says. "What do you want me to do?"
"Just try to send Koichi and Okuyasu here. I'm gonna need some help with this." Josuke says.
"Have you met a Stand User already?" Jolyne asked. "You just arrived there."
"Yeah, some show host and a competitor. Both probably from the same network." Josuke says. "They only got their Stands pretty recently."
"So, that means one of the Arrows is somewhere in the city." Jolyne states.
"Yeah, and with a city like this, it might take a while. Which is why I'm telling you to bring Koichi and Okuyasu here for help." Josuke says.
"Alright, it might take a few days for that to happen, but I'll tell them of the situation." Jolyne says.
"Okay, great." Josuke says. "I'm gonna start moving through the city, gonna try to find clues."
"Alright. Let me know if you find anything." Jolyne states.
