Johnny Joestar, better known as Jojo due to the Jo in his first and last name. The man who defeated Devils, Fallen Angels, and Monsters alike. The one man, Human that is, that Orphis, one of the Dragon Gods, refused to approach. It's not that he terrified her, his aura alone weakened her. She hated that; and could never figure out how it is that he is able to do so.
Orphis had met him once, passing him by. She had planned on meeting another person to help her with her goal to get back her home, but when she felt his aura, almost all of her power was drained. He didn't even touch her, nor look in her direction as he walked past her, and she was powerless. She returned home without meeting the person to get away from him as quick as she could; and regain her lost power.
Jojo, unlike other humans, has a unique ability that he was born with. While others can also use Hamon if trained in the art, Jojo is one with it. Every breath, every step is a wave of Hamon so weak that it weakens any Dragon around him. It radiates off of him, and it also attracts unwanted attention.

Sona hadn't been able to sleep last night. That was due to the scene she had woke up to last night, Jojo bloody and dying. It had her feeling restless the entire night. Sona had been incapable of getting even a wink of sleep, even so, she decided to set shifts for her Peerage to watch over Jojo in case his condition got worse or not. Yura would take the first shift, followed by Reya, Tsubaki, Momo, Saji, Tomoe and then herself.
Then there was what was going on today. Word of a girl, around the age of fifteen or sixteen, who couldn't speak Japanese, was going around yelling at people. If they ignored her, she would beat the crap out of them. She had a run in with two of the three Perverted Trio, even though she didn't understand them she still knew that they were talking about her in a sexual way and gave them an even worse beating than everyone else. From what she has gathered, she was looking for one Johnny Joestar.
Jojo had told her of some relatives that he met a few years ago, but never of a teenage girl. It was possible that Jojo didn't know of this family member. Then again, she could be an old flame that he had that she didn't know about. It only made her even more exhausted trying to figure out who this girl was and why she was looking for Jojo.
She had amazing strength for a human, taking more than one person on at a time. She would make an excellent Rook, but she knew that if she was a family member of Jojo's then she would have to have a sit down with Jojo to talk to him about recruiting her as she didn't want to go behind his back on something this important.
She wanted to send Yura to test her strength, but she had first shift watching over Jojo first. She could ask Koneko, but then that would draw Rias' attention to the girl, and she might recruit her without asking Jojo. That would cause even more problems as Jojo would cause a war between the both of them for such an insult.
Jojo had become stronger, even joining her and her peerage for training. Jojo had surpassed each of them in the time that he had been with them, Jojo's Stand, Holy Diver, was a powerhouse. Holy Diver prevented any physical damage to Jojo as long as it touched him. Elemental Damage was cut down by half, but this was for the likes of Lightning and Fire. Water, Earth, and Wind based magic Jojo just walked through without a problem. The way Jojo explained it, it was like swimming. If one were to swim and get shocked, it would be just as bad as getting zapped by the real deal.
Jojo even let her walk-through walls so that she could get a better understanding of how his powers worked. She even learned that Jojo didn't need the strength of Holy Diver to life heavy objects such as a vending machine. As long as Jojo focused on his breathing, which he said was at all times, he could lift even a tree. Sure enough, Jojo could lift a tree, even pull it out of the ground. Jojo was too much for her to understand fully that she gave up on figuring out what made Jojo... well, Jojo.
So, right now, Sona had a girl to confront as she was at the gates of the school beating people up for ignoring her. Right now, the girl was an opponent, not a friend. So, glaring at her newest opponent, Sona stood across from her with her arms crossed. She closed her eyes and began to take in some air, breathing through her nose, then letting it out. Grabbing onto the flow of air, she then directed it all towards her lungs, where she could feel her heartbeat even while nothing was pressed against her chest.
Her violet eyes snapped open.
"YOU ARE TO STOP THIS IMEDIATLY!" Sona called out, looking at the girl before her. She was bold-eyed. She wore her hair in two "layers". A dark base including two large buns atop her head and a long length going down her back; above which, lightly dyed or bleached bangs that frame her face. She wore an orange shirt and camo pants, black combat boots to match as well as a pink butterfly pin on the right side of her chest. She had on yellow lipstick, and what looked like washed off paint on her left eye.
With a loud shout the girls fist struck another student, knocking them out with her final punch. "SHUT IT LADY, I'LL DEAL WITH YOU NEXT!" She yelled, before she blinked as she recalled her speaking her language.
Her squeal of joy went unheard by the grumbles of pain that were around her. Dropping the student, the girl rushed over to Sona at full speed, with Sona narrowing her eyes at the sudden approach. She didn't flinch in the slightest. In fact, Sona welcomed her approach, not lifting a finger once the girl got into her face.
"I understood you! English, finally someone who can speak it! It is about time! How hard can it be to find one person who can speak it!? Extremely hard! Thats how!" The girl said as she threw her arms up in the air as she turned her back to Sona, then got into her face once more. To Sona, she wasnt that bad from what she could see. The girl was kind of stupid, but she could work with this.
The real problem was her anger and why she attacked everyone else around her. They were normal people, a term she wouldn't use for herself, her peerage, Rias and her peerage, and Jojo. The redness of her knuckles where she had punched the others were a clear sign that another punch would break the skin.
"I don't want to have to say this more than once. You are to stop your rampage on the students at this school! Now, as for you looking for Johnny Joestar, you can follow me!" Sona told the girl as she let out a sigh. It was getting late... no, early... whatever, she was exhausted.
Sona began walking through the gates of the school, leading the girl towards her house. As they walked, she wondered why he couldn't speak Japanese. What was she doing here? Was she a stand user? Where was her guardian? Answers she would soon get. Hell, she just hoped that she wasnt after Jojo's head. There was no real way to know what she was doing here. Sona was in the dark and she didn't like it.
They arrived at her home in the span of a few moments. After deactivating the traps set for any unwanted individual, she walked into the house and turned to the girl, who took her boots off as soon as she entered the building. She knew of the custom... but didn't know the language, it was interesting. One of her parents must of ben Japanese's, the other she didn't know.
Sona led the girl towards the room where Jojo was currently resting. Sona looked to her side, seeing Yura, holding a bloody towel. It was a clear sign that Jojo had opened his wound while moving about, but he was still alive. That was the main reason why Yura was the first watch, she had the strength to hold him down to keep him from reopening his wound.
Looking at the girl, Sona saw the shocked expression on her face. It was clear to her now that she wasnt here to do any harm to Jojo, something she was grateful for. She would have put a stop to her if she was, by any means.
"Yura, leave us." Sona ordered, with Yura nodding and taking the bloody towels with her as she left the room. The girl stepped out of the way as Yura walked past, her eyes locking with hers as she passed.
"What happened?" The girl questioned, pulling out a photo from her pocket, looking at it and then Jojo. Sona saw that it was a picture of Jojo walking down the street, a clear sign that someone was keeping tabs on him. She didn't like that, because that meant that they were keeping tabs on her and the others as well.
"Jojo was stabbed by a large blade." Sona informed, looking down at Jojo as he rested. "I would take him to the hospital, but that would invite the attackers for another attack." Sona informed, with the girl turning to face her.
"Attackers?" She questioned, with Sona nodding her head. "So, there were more than one?" She asked, looking back at the body of Jojo. She knelt next to the bed, a large frown on her face. "When did this happen?" She asked, laying her head on her arms as she watched Jojo sleep.
"Last night." Sona informed, crossing her arms. "He came home and walked in my room and woke me up... I was... scared at the sight of the blood." Sona informed, looking over at the wall and seeing a bit of a dark stain on said wall. "I did the best that I could." Sona said, with the girl nodding.
"I see." The girl said as she kept her eyes on Jojo. "I came here looking for Johnny because my dad had photos of him in his study. I thought that if I tracked him down with everything he had, I might be able to figure out who he is. Why he was important." She said as she looked away, her eyes closing and a grimace of pain coming to his face. "I really wanted to know why Dad was keeping tabs on him. Why Dad left mom and me. I hate him, he just up and left, for this guy. I don't even know if he is my brother or not, I just want to know." She said, with Sona nodding her head as she understood.
"You are not brother and sister." Sona informed, with her looking up at her as she had spoken. Sona looked away from the blood stain on the wall and back to Jojo. Jojo had told her about his father, Joseph Joestar, his half-brother, Josuke Higashikata, and his older Nephew, Jotaro Kujo. This girl was a mystery to her, one she wanted to know but keep away at the same time.
"I see." The girl said as she looked back at Jojo as she stood up. Her fingers were clenched tightly and there was blood leaking out from between them. "Who is he then?" She asked Sona as she turned to face her. "You know who Johnny Joestar is, don't you?" She questioned, with Sona taking in a breath.
"No." Sona answered, shocking her. "Jojo is still a mystery to me, and it does bother me. The only thing I know about Jojo, is that he was born and raised in the Vatican as an orphan before, for a fight with his best friend and crush, and near death, he was forced to leave. The time before then and the start of the school year, I know that he met up with his father, Joseph Joestar. He had learned about his relatives from him. Josuke, his brother, and Jotaro, his nephew. From there, we entered a marriage contract. I am his fiancé, as much as we both have said that we didn't like it." Sona said, rubbing her forehead in annoyance.
The girl frowned at this bit of information. "So, he is my great uncle?" She questioned, surprising Sona at this bit of information. For her to be Jojo's great uncle, that would mean that Jotaro had a family and was older than Jojo by a large margin. If she was fifteen or sixteen, and Jotaro had her while he was twenty, that would make Jotaro thirty-five or thirty-six. It was surprising to hear that bit of information, but she kept her cool. "Wait... Fiancé?" The girl said, looking at her with a tilted head and confusion. "Are you my great aunt then?" She questioned, shocking Sona at the great aunt name.
"No... at least not yet anyways. Please don't go calling me that, I don't want to be called old anytime soon." Sona said before she sighed, bringing his hand up to her face. She gently pressed the glasses up, fixing them. She had yet to introduce herself; the same could be said about the girl in front of her, it was rude of them not to get the others name. A quick glance at Jojo caught the girl's attention as she even turned to Jojo.
"Sona?" Jojo called out, with Sona walking to the other side of the bed. Sona smiled as she grabbed his hand and gave it a squeeze.
"I am right here." Sona replied, looking up at the girl across from her. "So is your grand niece." She said, shocking the girl at the grand niece bit.
She sweat-dropped as she realized she was just shot at with that comment. "Please don't call me that, it felt like I was old. The names Jolyne Cujoh... and like you, I also go by Jojo, but only my mom can call me that!" She added as she introduced herself.
Jojo's eye twitched as Holy Diver appeared and went to punch Jolyne but stopped an inch from her face as she didn't react. Sona, seeing Jojo's eye twitch, knew he had tried attacking Jolyne, punched his side. "That was for being an idiot!" Sona said, standing up.
"An idiot?" Jolyne questioned as she blinked at Sona's comment. "Was that for getting stabbed or something else? Because he needs to recover before you start beating on him!" Jolyne yelled as she stood up, narrowing her eyes at her.
"That was for getting stabbed, running off without telling me, getting in matters that didn't involve him, playing hero, and walking around for hours with a gaping hole in his chest, not to mention getting blood all over my house!" Sona said as she crossed her arms as she looked down at Jojo, who had a guilty expression on his face. "You shouldn't make me worry. Now that you are awake, do you wish to know what happened with the nun?" Sona asked, with Jojo looking at her, then Jolyne, who also crossed her arms.
"No." Jojo said, shocking them. "Not yet at least." Jojo said as he closed his eyes. "I have a guess on what happened." Jojo said as he took in a deep breath. "She got in trouble, and Rias and her group helped out." Jojo said, looking at Sona who nodded her head to confirm to him that Asia died, and Rias brought her back.
"Damn it! Why are you being secretive!" Jolyne yelled as she looked between the two. "I want to know what happened too!" She said, jerking her thumb at herself with a glair.
"No!" Both Jojo and Sona yelled, shocking her as they both agreed with each other right off the bat without discussing it first. Jolyne let out a sigh as she lowered her head in defeat. They were mean.
The next day
"Come on, Uncle J!" Jolyne urged her uncle as he did his best to sit up without opening his wound. "Keep going! Just a few more inches and you'll be sitting up!" Jolyne said, a smile on her face. Jolyne was in charge of getting Jojo's physical strength and stamina up so that he could go back to school like the others. With Jolyne here, the others no longer needed to watch over him and were allowed to go to school.
"Stop cheering..." Jojo groaned, using the strength in his arms to stay up. Where the hell is Asia, Sona said that she asked Rias if Asia could come over to heal me! Jojo thought in annoyance.
"Uncle J, you need to get stronger! Right now, even I could kick your ass and I've heard that you could beat anyone from Sona. Hell, you even beat her and her friends without trying! As you are now, your body won't be able to use all its muscles to their full extent!" Jolyne informed, with Jojo looking back at her as he sat up all the way.
"Shut up, Jolyne!" Jojo yelled, with said girl holding back a cheer as her uncle finally sat up without hurting himself more than needed. He had broke a sweat, but practice makes perfect. "What are you even doing here? You should be home with your mother!"
"Jojo has a point, Jolyne." Sona said once she walked in and gained both of their attentions, then they looked at the clock and saw that school was over. Now was the time for questions, questions she wanted but couldn't get yesterday as she didn't want to ask them without Jojo being awake. The main one being the one Jojo had just asked.
"I ran away, but it isn't like I'm going to stay away or whatever." Jolyne informed as she leaned back in the chair she was sitting in. "I thought that Uncle J would know where Dad was, but after yesterday's talk, I know he doesn't..." Jolyne said, with Jojo shaking his head as he had never met Jotaro.
"Sorry I'm late!" A voice called out, with all three of them turning their heads to see Asia running towards them. She was wearing a pink and white track suit with black accents. There was a large smile on her face as she walked over to the other side of the bed.
"Sona-san, Jojo-san! I'm sorry, I don't think we've met! My name is Asia Argento, it is a pleasure!" Asia introduced, bowing her head towards Jolyne.
"Oh...Jolyne Cujoh, niece to Jojo here." Jolyne introduced, looking at Jojo and then her. "Why are you here?" Jolyne asked, with Sona clearing her throat.
"Jolyne, please come with me for a moment." Sona said, with Jolyne looking at her. "Let the doctor do her thing." Sona informed, with her looking at Asia, who nodded her head as she understood. 'Jolyne doesn't know about the supernatural world yet, nor does she know about stands. Jojo wants to keep it that way, and I will respect his wishes.' Sona thought as she led Jolyne out of the room.
Later
"There you go." Asia said as she finished healing Jojo's stab wound.
"Thanks." Jojo said while he started removing the bandages from his chest. Looking down at it, there was no scar nor was there any sign that Jojo was stabbed. 'Her healing ability is amazing.' Jojo thought as he looked down at her. 'Could she revive someone from the dead? No, not likely. I wouldn't say that it heals, but reverses time of the wounds if that were the case. No, she speeds up the healing process.' Jojo thought as he looked at Asia.
"Jojo-san?" Asia questioned as she bowed her head to him. "Thank you for protecting me the best you could, you nearly died because of that. Still, thank you." Asia said, with Jojo nodding his head.
"I'm fine." Jojo said as he reached out and ruffled Asia's hair. The blond girl pouted from beneath his masculine hand, but it was easy to see she was pleased by the gesture. "But I don't need any thanks for my actions, that belongs to Issei." Jojo said, with Asia gasping once she heard Jojo say Issei's name right.
"You said his name right!" Asia said, with Jojo nodding his head.
"Hey, Asia!" Jolyne called out, with both Asia and Jojo looking at the door. "What's with the basket?" Jolyne questioned as she held the basket in the door as she looked inside, letting out a gasp at the missing wound on Jojo's chest.
"Ah!" Asia blushed and rushed towards her, taking the basket. "I have to go, I was supposed to meet up with Issei and Buchou-san after I was done here, now I am late!" Asia informed as she ran off, with Jolyne scratching her head at the girls' actions.
"Asia will make a great wife one day." Sona said as she walked in and saw Jojo stand up, rolling his arms around. 'I will never get used to seeing Jojo's muscles.' Sona thought as she fixed her glasses.
"W-w-w-wife!?" Jolyne squeaked, her face steaming. Her face had become so red it looked like someone stuck it in an oven and there was steam pouring out of her ears. "Sona... you shouldn't say such embarrassing things!" Jolyne said, with Sona looking at her as she didn't expect her to react in such a way.
Walking over to Jojo, Sona gave Jojo a hug, one that he didn't return. Instead, Jojo placed a hand on her shoulder. "Jojo?" She said as she looked up at him. Jojo's frowned as he knew Sona was about to pull something. "Are you alright?" Sona questioned, with Jojo nodding his head.
"Yes." Jojo said, placing his hat on his head and the shadow covering his eyes. "I'm fine." Jojo said with a small smile. "Sorry for making you worry." Jojo said as he placed his other hand on top of Sona's head.
"You know I'm still here, right?" Jolyne told them, before moving to the side as a pillow was thrown at her by Holy Diver. "If you ever need me for anything, you know, to help with something, or if you just want someone to talk to... I'll be out here." Jolyne told them as she rushed out of the room, leaving the two of them.
Later
That night, Jojo lay awake in his bed, unable to sleep. His arms were stretched out behind his head as he stared up at the ceiling, thinking. A sigh escaped his lips. Turning on his side, Jojo decided he should at least try to get some sleep. Just as he closed his eyes, the door opened.
Jojo quickly sat up in his bed just in time to see Sona walking into his room. She was wearing her pajamas, but some of the buttons on top were missing. "Sona." Jojo said as he turned his body around so that his feet were dangling off the bed. "Is everything alright?" Jojo questioned as he kept his eyes on her.
Sona marched over to him, not even stopping when she waltzed into his personal space. One hand was used to push him onto the bed so that she could straddle his waist. Jojo was so shocked by her actions that he found himself speechless.
"Jojo, I love you." Sona declared, shocking Jojo at her declaration. His eyes glazed up at her, uncomprehending. Had he heard her right? She loved him? Didn't she say that she wanted to break the engagement? For what reason could she have fallen for him? "I know." Sona said, where Jojo felt his heart lurch at the tone in her voice. "I didn't want this at first, but over time. I fell for you." Sona said, placing a hand on his heart as she spoke. For the first time in a long time, Jojo wasn't sure what to do.
"Sona..." Jojo said in a whisper as Sona placed her other hand on his cheek. "W-Why?" Jojo questioned, with Sona smiling down at him from her position above him.
"I don't know... I really don't..." Sona said as she placed a finger to his lips with the hand that was on his face. "Don't talk. Just let me stay... now... and forever!" Sona said as she laid down on top of him, taking in his warmth.
"Fine, Sona." Jojo said, wrapping one arm around her waist to hold her there. His actions startled Sona, but she soon closed her eyes as Jojo had accepted her. "I don't know if I can say I love you, Sona, but something is there, whatever it is." Jojo said as he felt his heart beating faster after what he just said.
"Whatever it is?" Sona questioned, holding back a laugh. "Can you accept us, a Devil and a Human?" She questioned, listening to his heart beat.
"Yeah. You're a beautiful woman." Jojo said, where Sona actually blushed at his declaration. "Yes, I accept us. A Human, and a Devil." Jojo said, bringing his other hand up and rubbing her head.
Sona was a little stunned by his proclamation. She seemed incapable of even speaking after his words. It felt right, hearing Jojo's words of acceptance of the two of them. Their bodies melded together. Sona did not say anything, still stunned by his proclamation and words. After a moment of this, her mind snapped back to the present. She got over her shock. She didn't say anything, but she did respond to his attention. Her face soon found itself in the crook of his neck. There, she inhaled his scent, an earthen smell that was a masculine scent that was distinctly Jojo. It was an unusual smell, but it had a calming effect on her mind.
