But the stomp never came. Tarkus can feel himself getting yanked up to the ceiling.
"W-What... How?" Yang asked. "I-If Tarkus was... Then that means Jonathan..." Weiss stuttered.
The camera followed JoJo, who easily pulled the chain, looking at Tarkus with a murderous glare.
"MY JONATHAN!" Weiss exclaimed with happiness.
The camera slowly panned up as they got a good view of Jonathan's titan physique.
Yang blushed and immediately squealed and wiped her tears away "Oh I've been waiting for this!"
Ruby was tomato red and timidly asked "His comeback or his shirtless scene?"
"Both! Look at that meat... Mmmm!"
Blake licked her lips and gulped. She can't blink or look away.
Weiss' pale face went crimson as she drooled at the sight, she wanted to save it in her scroll but she'll have to wait for the right time to avoid ridicule from the others.
JoJo tried to break free from his restraint. Tarkus taunted him, saying that he himself can't break that even with the power of Dio's blood but he immediately shuts the fuck up when one of the three steels popped.
"NNNNGRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! YOU'LL PAY! TARKUUUUUS!" the Joestar growled.
clang*
The steel snapped as the lion got free. "H-He did it! He is stronger than Tarkus! Who shattered a cliff with a single swing and lifted and smashed a hill with his finger!" Yang said in excitement. It was rare for her to find someone physically stronger than her, and it was a huge turn on. Too bad Jonathan is just a fictional character (laughs in librarian)
"My hero..!" Weiss cooed proudly as Ruby and Blake smiled at eachother.
The song whenever Jonathan does something dope plays.
"You willingly sold your soul to Dio, I thought you were a hero, but you're nothing more than a zero." JoJo said with tranquil fury as the amazing lighting made his face look like Kenshiro.
Tarkus used the chain to whip JoJo, but the newly awakened Joestar blocked it with ease and caught it. None of the girls dared to say anything. JoJo used his hand to fucking tore the giant's arm off, causing him to let out a howl of pain.
"K-Kono powa! Zeppeli's hamon amplified Mr. Joestar's strength! He is now stronger than this mountain of a man!" Speedwagon stated the obvious yet Weiss was too amazed to snark.
"Your queen was ashamed of you, and it's time for me to send you back to her dishonorably, drown in the depths of history!" JoJo screamed which infuriated Tarkus, he spat out two fangs to JoJo's cheeks before charging forward.
"You're already dead." Ruby pointed and coldly said.
JoJo punched his face with both his fists. The lion lets out a mighty roar as it mauled the motherfucker to dust, squeezing the giant's face with ripple that annihilated him.
RWBY cheered and hollered at the amazing and hype moment.
JoJo rushed towards his fallen mentor, which caused Team RWBY to be snapped back to the cruel reality.
JoJo called him out. Zeppeli turned to face his apprentice.
"How can this be? Without you... Without you..!" he cried out.
"JoJo! Snap out of... It! This is not the time to grieve..! You can do it.. You can defeat Dio and destroy the mask... I believe in you..."
Team RWBY started tearing up again as Zeppeli coughed blood. JoJo looked at him with concern.
"I can see the fear in your eyes... Don't be scared... Own it..." the baron said.
"But what about you?!" JoJo asked.
"I am satisfied with my fate... When I was young, I had a beautiful family I left behind... But even so, I am satisfied..." he weakly said.
Team RWBY gasped even more.
"You know... You and Mario could have been good friends..."
"B-Baron..!"
"JoJo. You are like a son to me..."
JoJo openly let his tears fall, Pocco hugged Speedwagon, as he can't watch this sad farewell.
"Know... Just because the body dies, doesn't mean the spirit ceases to exist... And remember... One last thing... You're... The man now... Dog..."
JoJo's second father figure closed his eyes to enter a slumber that will last forever. "W-William!" Ruby sobbed as she stood up and fell on her knees, her innocence slowly deteriorating, she started to question her point of view that good guys get good endings.
Yang cried quietly but she attempted to comfort her sister. Weiss covered her mouth and sobbed, what a tragic scene. Blake closed her eyes and wept for the man who saved the Joestar. William Zeppeli, the hero of the hero. (That makes sense)
They cremated his corpse, as images of Speedwagon, Pocco and Jonathan were shown in the night sky, Zeppeli's image appeared above them, symbolizing that he'll be watching over them.
"Please pause it..." Ruby whimpered to which Blake did. They all took a moment to grieve for the lost.
Meanwhile
"CURSES!"
"Calm down, Dio. It can't be that bad."
"I don't even know what a pie-za is, and they expect me to deliver them? I'm reduced to such a pitiful job, my pride won't allow this." Dio whined as the two walked back to the room reserved for them.
"Think of it this way, brother. You've seen how prestigious we've been raised, two top notchers from Hudson Academy, working with jobs a senior high can apply for. I only want what's best for me, because I am the best, and everyone needs to know." Dio whined as he stared at his hand and played with his vaporizing freeze power.
JoJo sighed and decided to sugar coat his job.
"Dio, maybe try to think of it this way too, you're a royal messenger, delivering tasteful exotic circular dish, your job is so important that they would die if you don't make it on time. An emperor of Pie-za!" he said cheerfully. "Hmm, not bad, JoJo. Not bad at all." the vampire smirked. Apparently, the unemployment rates in Vale is so low that a pizza delivery man is the only job available for the almighty Dio to sink his fingers on to.
Back with the girls
"I'm... I'm okay now.." Ruby wiped away a tear. Yang sniffled and nodded, Weiss wiped her tears with a tissue as Blake grabbed the remote to continue playing.
The scene showed them a castle, Dio sat in a throne holding a rose while a woman is holding a baby. "Dio!" RWBY growled.
The woman begged him to spare the child's life.
Dio was amused as the team stared in horror at the sight of Dio's army clinging on the ceiling. "Let me get this straight, lady. You will submit to us if we don't lay a finger on the child, correct?"
"Yes! Please! Just not the child!" she tearfully begged.
"Very well, I, Dio, swear that me and my army won't harm your child."
"H-He is gonna let the child live?" Weiss asked, terrified. "No... There must... There must be a catch!" Blake said, knowing Dio, something bad is going to happen.
"I think it would benefit you if you both join me-"
"PLEASE SPARE THIS CHILD, YOU PROMISED!"
"Okay, okay." Dio poked her and turned her in to one of them.
The team sighed in relief as Dio indeed did no harm to the chi-
"My sweet baby!" the zombified mother began to maul her child from the face.
"A... A...!" the team gasped, totally speechless.
"I kept my promise, we did not lay a finger on your child, you did." Dio said as he picked up a rose. The team glanced at eachother, wide eyed and mouth opens at the utter shock and horror they just witnessed.
Back to the outskirts of town. Jonathan is wearing a blue undershirt, the one he wore in the intro they recognized. But the team was too traumatized to even say something at this point, so they watched silently.
JoJo has this serious face as Speedwagon donned the hat of his late friend out of respect. They walked silently as the italian now rest in peace.
"Mr. Joestar, Dio said he is going to infect this town. Do you think anyone is still alive?" Speedwagon broke the ice to which the Joestar just shrugged.
They hurried to walk before Pocco saw someone he recognized. Mr. Adams asked Pocco what in fuck's name is he doing out in the middle of a night with two buff men, the kid asked if his sister is alright and if there's nothing strange in the neighborhood.
"Alright?! You think she is alright?!"
"I-Is she dead?" Ruby spoke nervously. "She is furious! You're toast, kid." Adams said. Team RWBY chuckled, feeling lighthearted again.
The town is safe, no zombies in sight. But as the three continued their way, Mr. Adams suddenly went full Smoker from Left 4 Dead and unwind his tongue.
"EWWW!!!" RWBY exclaimed, grossed out. Adams' tongue shot out towards Pocco, claiming that a child's flesh is better than an adult's. Only to have his tongue caught by JoJo. Adams retaliated by leaping in to the air and boasted "Can you escape this speed, schmuck?!"
Only to get slammed down to the ground and annihilated by the Joestar's hamon.
"Well... JoJo's reflexes improved. Those zombies are nothing more than pests to him." Blake noted. "All thanks to you, Baron." Ruby said. "Hell yeah! It turned in to a horror show, where the zombies try to survive and Jonathan is the monster!" Yang gleefully boasted. "That's one way to put it." Weiss replied.
Suddenly, a large man about the same build as JoJo walked towards them. "Is that... Another zombie?" Weiss asked in concern. "Pffft, another one that's gonna get his ass whooped." Yang scoffed.
JoJo readied his guard.
"My name is Dire."
"Nobody cares!" Yang said, not caring at this minor villain.
Dire leapt and delivered a rather slow kick, to which JoJo caught. But to their surprise, the man performed a split that knocked JoJo's arms away as he attacked with a double hand strike. "Try this! THUNDER SPLIT ATTACK!"
But it failed miserably as JoJo headbutted him and knocked him 12 feet back. "Impossible! No one can just escape the thunder split attack!" he exclaimed as he fell back.
"You probably don't know who you're dealing with, zombie." Weiss scoffed and crossed her arms, proud of her man.
JoJo glared at him and moved in for the kill to which he surrendered "Wait, Jonathan Joestar! I'm a human!"
"How did he know his name?" Ruby asked. Dire apologized and said he just wanted to see how well Zeppeli trained him. To which Jonathan got triggered "Zeppeli? Did you just say Zeppeli?! What about Zeppeli??"
"How did he know him too?" the leader once again asked. Dire answered their questions, saying as how he used to train with him back in the day, a dear friend who went 2 decades of trial with him.
"Oh! That explains alot... Wait, if he is here..." Ruby said, hoping to see that Tonpetti bald guy.
Thunder Split Attack = Emerald Splash.
Got deflected by JoJo. (Jonathan and Jotaro)
Got deflected by Dio. (Dio and DIO)
