California-1995
"Oh God!" a woman with semi long brown hair and blue eyes dressed in a pink sweater and a brown skirt screamed, backing away from the holes that suddenly appeared on the wall "Jotaro! Jotaro!"
The man in question like the holes suddenly appeared in front of her in a blink of an eye shielding her with his arm he looked at the holes in the wall "When did it happen?" he asked in a rather harsh but cautious manner "What else is going on Luca?"
"N-nothing else" the woman named Luca said as she raised her arm pointing at the baby's bed "Nothing but Jolyne-" her words were caught in her throat upon seeing the two year old baby floating in the air, both her and Jotaro's eyes widen seeing that she slowly turned to the man "Jotaro" her voice wavered "Please…just hold her in your hands."
Jotaro said nothing as he slowly approached the floating baby girl and caught her in his hands, he faced the woman presenting the baby to her "Now Luca I need you to calm down and take Jolyne in a far safe space" he turned around glaring at the holes "If there's an enemy stand user in here then-"
"It's Jolyne!" Luca revealed cutting the man mid-sentence.
"What did you say?"
"The holes" Luca began with tears gathering in her eyes "Jolyne was crying and fussing, I was hushing her but she got mad and then those holes came out."
Jotaro looked back at the wall and true to what Luca said the holes stopped appearing, he looked at the baby who still had tears in her eyes but stopped crying as she was cradled in the man's hands since he rarely holds her she came to consider it a treat. The man conceded with the theory and offered the baby back but she stepped back "What's wrong? I mean it's unexpected but stands are passed down through blood-"
"Jotaro" Luca cut the man again as she couldn't stop herself from shaking in fear "She is she safe for me to hold her?"
Jotaro remained silent for a bit "Why wouldn't it be?"
"She can break through a wall from three feet's away" Luca answered fearfully pointing the holes "What if she gets scared or upset and has a tantrum right before taking my head off?"
"Luca" Jotaro said in a much softer tone "You don't have to worry about that. If she does anything I'll handle it-"
"I know!" Luca yelled "I know Jotaro but I can't…until we know it's safe can you just hold her?"
Jotaro remained silent before hanging his head down "Good grief" he mumbled under his breath before looking up to her with a simple answer "Yeah."
Time passed by as Jotaro breathed in a huge sigh of relief that Jolyne finally fell asleep "She's got a stand?" the voice of an old friend asked from the other side of the phone it was always welcoming and comforting.
"Yeah Polnareff" Jotaro answered as he cracked his neck "She only used it one time though but Luca had me watch her for the rest of the day. I'm afraid it'll get in the line of my work."
"Have you seen what it looks like?" Polnareff asked curiously.
"No."
"Hm well I'm not sure what to say Jotaro, Jolyne is young and from personnel experience I can tell you stands are drastically weaker when used by a kid."
"Alessi?"
"Oui, so you can assure your mademoiselle that Jolyne is practically harmless, it shouldn't be a problem your there to help teach her. It's not like having a stand is a bad thing."
"Kakyoin was born with Hierophant green."
"See!" Polnareff said with triumph which proved to be short lived.
"And he was an antisocial manipulator with no friends until we got hold of him."
Polnareff sign of defeat could be felt from the other side of the call but the man immediately recovered "Well you'll be there to make sure that doesn't happen, right Jotaro? Don't worry everything will be alright."
Jotaro silently nodded and thanked his friend before closing the line.

Two yeasr later
"I want a divorce" Jotaro spoke coldly.
Luca wavered in place before looking up "Jotaro please we need to stay together! For Jolyne, for us."
Jotaro sighed deeply as he tipped his hat "Luca you and I both know us didn't go anywhere."
"Jotaro please don't say it like that" Luca begged.
"Luca, we were never in love, it happened too quickly we rushed things in an unnecessary manner and mostly it's me who's the problem" Jotaro confessed as he looked up the view from the window "I was never really the type of man who's capable of settling down."
Luca sighed in defeat knowing how much of this is true "I…I always thought you had some kind of hidden softness in you. A warm core that will allow you to be kind and tender, but you had just buried it. I thought that I could crack that coldness, that silent, stoic and tough man that I swooned for. I thought I could change you…that's what I told myself when I first laid my eyes on the lonely tough guy sitting on that bench in campus surrounded by Pigeons" Jotaro seemed to be touched by the mention of their first meeting "But I was wrong, Jotaro I know you well enough to know that you're a good person. Your just not well the tender type or the loving type…or the kind type."
Jotaro simply nodded in affirmation still silent "Like I said it's me not you, I just don't think I'm meant to be married."
Luca's mind remained absent leaving an uncomfortable silence between them "I know" was all she could say.
Jotaro gazed at the floor beneath them "What do you want to tell Jolyne?"
"I'm not sure" she answered honestly "Maybe we should wait until she's older, until she had the chance to grow up."
"With two people who can barely stand each other's?" Jotaro asked bluntly.
Any sign of Luca's previous withdrawn disappeared as her face became crimson with rage "You can't stand me?" she asked but it felt more like a demand than a genuine question.
"It's just" Jotaro blabbered cursing himself internally before grabbing the edge of his cap "Good grief wouldn't be better for her if we were just honest rather than faking it for her?"
Luca frown deepened but she sighed in defeat "Fine."
"So how should I say goodbye to her?"
"You won't be saying goodbye I'll" Luca answered shocking the stoic man.
"What?" Jotaro asked for confirmation but mostly hoping he heard her wrong.
"You're the one with the Stand, I can't teach Jolyne that or can I stop her. What if her Stand is beyond punching things that are too far away for her to reach normally? What if she gets dangerous and weird like those people you fought? I can't handle that Jotaro it's too dangerous for me and Jolyne."
"I can't raise a kid" Jotaro said with a shockingly wavering voice of fear.
"You're a father accept it."

1999 New York daytime
An old woman laughed as raised a five year old Jolyne into the air "Higher! Higher granny Suzie!" the five year old said.
"Okay" the Old woman Suzie said.
Seated behind them were Jotaro and a hunched Oldman the latter sighed tiding up his glasses "I should have kept up my ripple training" the Oldman said with mournful regret. Jotaro didn't say anything and was simply content with watching the five year old play with Suzie.
Soon a knock on the door was heard getting their attention "Come in" the Oldman invited.
The door was opened by an Agent who looked terrified "Mr. Joestar we got a problem" he said solemnly.
"What kind?" the Oldman asked.
"It's demi related."
Jotaro and the Oldman remained silent for both of them knew that acceptance between demi's and humans won't happen easily rather the former and even the latter would admit they are still fearful of Vampiric demi's due to past experiences "What kind?"
"The Lamia's in Egypt it appears that they're violating the exchange bill" the agent answered, "And their Chiefess might be in possession of a stand."
Both men eyes widened as they got up "Oh Joseph, Jotaro where are you guys going?" Suzie asked the two men.
"Um Speedwagon foundation business" the Oldman Joseph answered.
"Oh can I come?" the little girl asked.
"No!" Jotaro answered firmly "You stay here."
"Alright you two be careful" Suzie said whilst the girl pouted her cheeks.
The two men left the room following the agent into a high tech room after closing the door the agent turned to the two men "We recently received this recording from a team deported to Egypt, please listen to it."
The agent pressed on the red button "Hello, this's Manako of M.O.N. from the Speedwagon Japan wing" Manako's voice began "We came here after the Lamia representative Miia didn't come to Morioh under the false explanation that she changed her mind, our leader Kuroko Higashikata had taken to investigating this matter herself."
"Kuroko Higashikata?" Joseph asked.
"As she left on her own me and the rest of my team came to contact with Miia's family and revealed to us that the Chiefess of the Lamia's imprisoned Miia which didn't sit well with the rest of the tribe but they were easily suppressed by an army of Mummies that came out of nowhere that obey the Chiefess we are going after our leader over and out" the recording stopped.
Jotaro remained silent whilst Joseph kept shaking in his place "That's all we got, if this thing about Mummies is to go by along with the reports of Enyaba the hag being witnessed in the Lamia's village before DIO's death it's safe to assume the Lamia's Chiefess is an enemy stand user" the agent deduced.
"That's it?" Joseph asked looking over the agent "Did you get anything else about Kuroko? Is she alright?"
"Uh no nothing this recording is everything we have" the agent answered.
"Gramps what got you all tensed up?" Jotaro asked.
Joseph paused taking in a long sigh "Um Jotaro I don't have much time left" the Oldman began slumping his shoulders down before facing him "So I began to put everything in order before I depart like the succession of the foundation, the exchange bill and mostly inheritance for the family."
Jotaro nodded following the Oldman "Alright then what does that agent Kuroko have to do with this?"
"Well you see" Joseph said embarrassingly scratching the back of his head "Me and Suzie aren't a nearly perfect couple but then again who's a perfect couple I mean you got a divorce" Jotaro nodded gesturing for the Oldman to continue "Well years together is a good sign but there were times even in our old age where we got into fight and the like-"
"Get to the point!" Jotaro said cutting the man off and wanting to be finished.
"I had an affair" Joseph confessed.
Jotaro fell silent as a uncomfortable pause fell on the room "What?"
"I had an affair" Joseph repeated in a defeated sigh "It was a very tough time managing the foundations relationship with the demi's, I was overworked and tired but amidst all that there was that one intern in her twenties that worked harder than anyone she was dedicated to open relations between the two worlds and well I was captivated by her."
"So captivated you had an affair with a woman in her twenties and your like in your sixties?" Jotaro asked in disgust.
"Hey, we didn't jump there yet!" Joseph defended before continuing "First I brought her in to my office to take some load off of me then I got to feel bad for her dropping most of the work on her shoulders so I began treating her to drinks and dinner we began exchanging talks and one night we drank to our excessiveness and next thing I knew it was morning and I was naked in a bed with her and I immediately distanced myself."
"So now you're feeling terrible after basically ditching her after a drunken one night stand that happened years ago and think you can make it up to her with a few extra bucks on her pay-check?" Jotaro asked sarcastically even though it was hard to judge considering the seriousness always present in his tone of voice.
"Actually I was planning on that but I discovered something else" Joseph said averting his gaze like a teenage girl which made Jotaro gruff again as the Oldman despite his age always acted like some youngster idiot.
Jotaro sighed angrily "You just keep on stepping on more landmines, what is it now?"
"I discovered recently that she's a single mother" Joseph answered, "The boy has the Joestar birthmark and he suffered the same illness your mother Holly had when DIO awakened the World at the same time even and just like your mother he's still alive probably managed to hold on until you defeated DIO."
"Good grief" Jotaro muttered as he began to walk away "Alright I'll go to Egypt to investigate this probably save YOUR mistress and talk to her along with the kid regarding their piece of the inheritance."
The two men left the room with Jotaro taking the lead and Joseph following behind him with a begging stance "Could we please keep this between us?"
Jotaro allowed a gruff out "Fine it's your problem anyways not mine."
Returning to the room where they left the girl and the old woman where they greeted them the girl with a weak nervous smile while the old woman looking angry "Uh Suzie?"
"Joseph you cheating Swine!" Suzie yelled in anger "How could you do this to me all these years ago!"
Joseph raised his arms up for protection from the old woman's anger as she hit him with her purse "Oi what are you talking about?"
"You had an affair with a younger woman than me years back! And we already had Holly together" Suzie screamed her answer.
Jotaro's eyes seemed to widen from surprise momentarily "How did you-" he stopped himself when he heard the whistling of Jolyne looking away innocently, turning to his daughter Jotaro stood over her with his stoic "You overheard us through your strings?"
"I'm sorry I wanted some piece of the action and I might had thought out loudly hearing you" Jolyne said with an innocent smile.
Jotaro sighed as he cursed himself forgetting that one of her Stand's bothersome abilities is able to overhear conversations using strings it generates "It doesn't matter let's go already to Egypt."
"You're taking me?" the girl asked with excitement.
"Well they have some things to discuss between themselves we can't bother them" Jotaro said non chunkily pointing at the angry Suzie hitting Joseph with the purse whilst the Oldman is apologizing and begging.

Plane towards Egypt
"Wow I can't believe I'm going to Egypt" the girl said excitedly grabbing her feet's.
Jotaro remained silent as he gazed at a photo that he along with grandfather and their friends took together there, one would believe this would of happy times to Jotaro it was both happy but with a sad end "Mr. Kujo this's what we managed to get of the Lamia's" the plane attendant said presenting documents and photos of not just the Lamia's but also of Kuroko and her M.O.N. unit that are possibly held there. Jotaro observed each one with calculation his eyes focused on one photo one that didn't have Lamia's or M.O.N. in it, the photo was of none other than Enyaba the hag holding a black arrow.
"Was this after her break in into the village?" Jotaro asked.
"Yes" the attendant answered.
"What exactly brought her in there?" Jotaro asked "It is speculated that the Chiefess is a stand user, could it possibly be that DIO was trying to sway the demi's beginning with the Lamia's into his side?"
"We don't know but what we know is that during the lifetime of DIO Enyaba the hag broke into their village invading a sacred temple presumably built by or under the reign of the Chiefess's of old" the attendance began "The temple is forbidden ground for most Lamia's except for candidates of the Chiefess rank and monks, from what we managed to gather it appears the Lamia's had a tradition where before the death of the current Chiefess she would name new candidates these candidates would be put on trials the finale one takes place inside the temple for days and only one lives."
"Um you mean only one becomes Chiefess?" Jolyne thinking the man may misspoken.
"No I mean lives and the one who lived becomes the Chiefess" the man answered before turning back to Jotaro "During Enyaba's breaking the imprisoned Miia who was only a four year old child at the time followed her and when Enyaba escaped with the arrow the little Lamia gave chase to no avail only ended up pierced by the arrow leaving her to suffer with a disease similar to that of Lady Holly."
Jotaro glanced back "Are you telling me that Miia girl is also a stand user?"
"The possibility exists" the man said.
"Oh I wonder what can her Stand do?" Jolyne spoke with stars in her eyes.
"We'll see after some diplomatic talks" Jotaro said.
(…)
Lamia village gates
"Did you not hear me?" Jotaro asked the shaken Lamia guard "I said I belong to the Speedwagon foundation I want to talk to your Chiefess."
"Um we already had a member of the foundation talking with the Chiefess recently" the Lamia stumbled in her words.
"Are these members possibly held in a cell?" Jotaro asked making the Lamia turn pale. This was all Jotaro needed as he summoned his stand which was a tall muscular purple skinned humanoid with long flowing black hair and green eyes with golden shoulder pads and head band, black fingerless gloves with golden buttons and a white sash.
"ORA!" the Stand cried out punching the Lamia guard all the way to Chiefess palace.
(…)
Chiefess palace
"May!" her fellow Lamia guard who went to report to the Chiefess cried out for her friend tending to her.
"Who dares denting my palace?" the Chiefess demanded.
"Don't worry" Jotaro's voice was heard "You won't be able to look at it once I break it…your face that is" Jotaro came out of the rubble cloud facing the Chiefess with a tired glance "How troublesome my third time in Egypt and it's to break someone's face never catching a break."
Nefertiti gritted her teeth in anger "Who the hell do you think you are?"
"Jotaro Kujo" Jotaro answered as he pointed his index finger towards the Chiefess "You are guilty of violating the exchange bill and holding Speedwagon foundation personnel in cells, you have the right to remain silent."
"Silent?" Nefertiti asked offended "Your ordering me the great Chiefess to hold my tongue inside my own palace?" as each word came out with malicious intent in her mouth [Menacing] was now the order her black hair floated with a black aura surrounding her causing both guards and servants alike to back away in fear. A hissing sound was heard not only from the serpent Chiefess but another figure that appeared behind her it had a green serpent neck and head with green glowing eyes, a female human figure dressed in a green Nemes with yellow lines with a matching wesekhs around its neck mummy cloth wrapped around her body with a whip in her grasp. "Taste my wrath!" the Chiefess declared as the figure cracked it's whip about to hit the ground.
"ORA!" Jotaro summoned his stand as it secured the whip tightly in its grasp, Nefertiti eyes widened before she sneered.
"You dare have the power of a Chiefess?"
"It's not like I asked for it" Jotaro said before glaring at her "This's my stand Star Platinum and you're not the first stand user we fought, so we can do this the easy way or the hard way."
"SILENT!" Nefertiti ordered as her stand kicked some dust at Star Platinum's eyes blinding it momentarily long enough to let go of the whip as Nefertiti's stand hit the ground with the whip causing Mummies to emerge.
"Argh" the Mummies collectively make their sounds.
"My loyal servants attack this trespasser!" Nefertiti ordered.
The Mummies began moving towards Jotaro attempting to tackle him but were soon all sent away by Star Platinum.
"ORA! ORA! ORA! ORA! ORA!" Star Platinum continuously cried as he punched through the Mummies like paper breaking them to pieces as they disappeared to ash.
Nefertiti jaw fell seeing this "Give up?" Jotaro asked with Star Platinum by his side fists clenched and ready.
"Never! Kebechet bring more competent Mummies!" Nefertiti ordered her stand making it hit the ground with her whip summoning three Mummies who are larger than the previous ones "You won't be lucky this time these three are as thick as a wall of diamonds!"
"Good grief" Jotaro muttered as he ordered Star Platinum to punch through them again like paper.
"ORA! ORA! ORA!" Star Platinum cried as he busted through them.
"H-how?" the Chiefess asked beginning to back away in fear.
"Like I said you're not the first stand user I fought" Jotaro said as he walked towards her each step made Nefertiti cower and coil in fear until both she and her stand were in a prostrate position.
"C'mon look into yourself a big strong man not to mention good looking you won't hit a lady would you?" Nefertiti asked, as she began taking her top off showing her chest "A beautiful and powerful lady who can do everything all you need to do is ask" she said in an inviting seductive tone.
Jotaro stopped in his tracks which made Nefertiti's eyes flash in a glint as she uncoiled herself in a launch bringing a hidden knife out just ready to stap Jotaro…but the knife was intercepted by Star Platinum who glared at her before breaking the knife in his grasp "You're quite the dirty woman but too bad I'm not the type to settle down" he said.
Nefertiti slumped her shoulders in defeat closing her eyes "Too bad you do look nice" suddenly she was grabbed by her face by Star Platinum with Jotaro glaring.
"Nor or am I the type to show restraints when beating evil women" Jotaro said making Nefertiti's face turn pale.
"ORA! ORA! ORA! ORA! ORA! ORA! ORA! ORA! ORA!" Star Platinum battle cry could be heard for miles as it punched Nefertiti and her Stand into oblivion before one finale punch "ORA!" that sent the Chiefess and her Stand breaking through the palace's roof until she landed beaten and bloody in the village's square.
"Heggie blerh blo" Nefertiti muttered incoherently before conciseness.
(…)
Time passed as the Speedwagon agents were freed whilst Jotaro glared at the Chiefess's clique who prostrated themselves before Jotaro "Please have mercy we were only following the Chiefess's orders" one cried.
"True if we didn't she would use her powers on us" another cried.
"Mister Kujo if I may?" a girl's voice said being Miia "These Lamia's are innocent only Chiefess Nefertiti is to blame for this incident."
"You are Miia the young Lamia who was attacked by Enyaba right?" Jotaro asked.
"Yeah."
"Do you have a stand like her the Chiefess?"
Miia nodded summoning Colors "I caused a lot of trouble by having this power and so I'm willing to take punishment."
Jotaro stared at the girl before turning "Good grief."
"Um sorry to interrupt" a Lamia said from the clique "But what will happen to Chiefess Nefertiti?"
"She'll be put through some schooling for her actions" Jotaro stated punching his fist into his palm.
"Oh no then who'll be the Chiefess?" another Lamia dressed like an Egyptian priest asked, "As per tradition only a Lamia with great power can lead…and we don't have the way to determine that anymore."
"Miia" one guard answered pointing at the teen.
"What?" Miia caught off guard.
"You have the same powers" the guard said, "Only you can be the Chiefess."
"Miia! Miia! Miia!" many Lamia's began to shout and cheer putting the teen in a pickle.
"Um Miia can't lead" suddenly someone said being Kuroko who put her hand on the Lamia's shoulder "Not yet at least, you Lamia's are in this position because your Chiefess failed to adapt and let go of tradition so if Miia is to be the next Chiefess she must first learn and fix the relationship between you and the humans as an exchange student of the bill."
Miia smiled as she looked at the Lamia's "Yes, if I'm to be a Chiefess then I must learn all about our new allies to help our society adapt until that mission is over I here by name my mother Jasmine as temporary Chiefess."
Kuroko smiled as she retreated watching the court Lamia's surround Miia's mother with all kinds of questions, "Agent Kuroko a word please" Jotaro asked as he walked by her side she nodded.
"Thanks for helping us" Kuroko said.
"You're welcome."
"Mr. Kujo this thing you, Miia and Nefertiti have is called a stand?" Kuroko asked.
"Yes" Jotaro answered before he rested a hand on her shoulder stopping anymore talks "Excuse me but there's something we need to discuss between us two."
Kuroko nodded as she and Jotaro walked away.
