Ghosts and Ripples, Part 2


Is the Order a Rabbit? belongs to Manga Time Kirara, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure belongs to Hirohiko Araki. If I did then [D4C] turns people into Spongebob which sounds painful thanks to The Splinter episode.

Even though it says I have more reviews, they won't show up. Must be a glitch on FF's fault. Damn you inconveniences! Oh, now it's fixed but Speedwagon didn't show up! Speedwagon can't abandon us! Also I realized [Harvest] is an OP [Stand] and would probably beat Dio who will have no way of finding out who's attacking him.

Also I know how the Eyes of Heaven spinoff would start and end, I even wrote down everything. If can't make that fic, I'll just post what I planned and the summary of the plot on this fic like an omake afterward.

Also freezing is not a [Ripple] technique, I just found out since [Hamon] is the power of the sun. Let's say that monks developed new techniques over the years also. And also Tsumugu did inherit a bit of Jonathan, that explains the [Ripple].

If you like this fic, review, follow and fave and I'll likely make a lemon spinoff because these guys are too sexually frustrated with each other.

THIS CHAPTER IS SPOILER HEAVY OF THE ENTIRE FRANCHISE, BE CAREFUL.

STORY IS NOW!


Many years ago, somewhere in Egypt. A man with a muscular body but beautiful looks and blonde hair began writing down on a diary. Next to his hand was a vial with white liquid inside. The man gave a glance at the vial before stopping his writing.

"Hmpf!" He grabbed the vial and stared at it. "I am not sure why Enya has told me to create you, my child. It is not like I, Dio will fail to achieve [Heaven]." Dio was careful not to shake the vial too much. "I wonder if you shall grow up into a vampire like I am, or have a [Stand] of your own?"

Like his own children, Dio wondered if they'll either inherit from him or Jonathan's body. He procreated with his nemesis's body but felt like he was defiling JoJo, one of the only people he has ever respected besides his own mother.

"No matter. You, my child will be the last plan in case if I am...out of commission for my plans." The vampire didn't want to admit it even the slightest chance of his defeat, taking years to recognize his defeat with Jonathan inside that damn coffin. "You will not achieve [Heaven] by yourself, that is Father Pucci's plan if I am not there to achieve it. However, if he fails to achieve that also, then I shall tell you how to bring me back so we can gain [Heaven] together."

Dio looked at his diary before placing the vial on the table. "I shall not write your existence, if a Joestar found their way to this diary..." He looked at the vial once again. "You shall gain inheritance from Enrico Pucci if he has died, with instructions on how to bring me back. Then we shall make this world go into the skies and reach heights they have never seen before."

He didn't even know why he was talking to his seed, Dio just scoffed at how stupid he feels right now. "Whoever your mother of birth may be, where you live, what [Stand] you have...I believe you shall bring me back, one way or another if [The World] fails."


"B-BRANDO?!" Joren screamed out, his voice shaking in pure horror. "H-HOW?! ALL OTHER CHILDREN WERE FOUND IN 2011!"

"Well too bad you didn't check for more." Tsumugu nonchalantly replied with a [MENACING] aura surrounding him. Joren noted the man looked too young to be born around the 1980s, either that or he's like Jotaro who looked liked he never seemed to age past seventeen. "Seems like your friend stopped calling you sensei, finally."

'Why is JoJo-kun so scared of this tattoo?' Sharo looked concerned at her friend. 'And why is he scared of this guy? He broke the 'influence' he had on him so he can't be that trouble!'

"Sharo-chan, I know you're wondering what is going on." The Brando smiled at her much to her fright. "JoJo over here's afraid I turned him into an actually Joestar." This made her more confused. "Ugh. I hate exposition. You see, JoJo's adoptive family's bloodline have birthmarks in the shape of a star-"

"[EARTH ANGEL]!" Joren shouted and his [Stand] shot more missiles, aiming to make them go surround him at all sides from top to front and back but Tsumugu somehow surrounded himself with water like a dome, he then shot [Hamon]-infused rain droplets at the missiles, making them explode on contact and making them plop on the ground.

"Are you done? Anyway, where was I?" He continued explaining. "The Joestar birthmark, a cursed brand in their bloodline. My father, named Dio Brando somehow got the mark also. I'm not explaining how he got it but I got it also, now I put it on Joren and he's freaking out."

"How. Did. You. Do. It?" Not even the boy was sure he could defeat Tsumugu right now, him being able to plant commands in his subconscious and is a [Ripple] user who seems to be more experienced than him.

"When I 'influence' or possess someone, I rub a bit of my soul towards them. Since I have the Joestar brand, I rubbed it onto you!" Joren grit his teeth, realizing the implications.

"So that's why Skennix had the birthmark! You influenced her!"

"Well, I couldn't possess her, she wasn't like a Muggle, someone who didn't have a [Stand]." Tsumugu was still in his dome, not even moving. "Wanna get some pancakes or something?"

The two were flabbergasted by how casual this man was. "No? Don't attack me yet, I'm getting out of this dome. Riiiiiiiight about now." The dome of water fell down, wetting Tsumugu from top to bottom. "Did not think that through-"

Missiles headed towards the man who merely shrugged at the sight of impending danger. "Ugh. This again." A ghostly projection of him appeared again, this time the user grasping the hands of the ghost. "Better make sure you get rid of all those missiles."

The ghost nodded and ran towards the missiles. Sharo then saw a glimpse of the fists of the ghost, nearly wondering if she was seeing wrong thanks to the rain but it was no doubt what she saw. "J-JOJO! THE FISTS OF THE [STAND]-!"

He saw what she was talking about and sure enough, the fists of the [Stand] were infused with [Hamon], the ghost began dashing towards the missiles, punching one and knocking it dead into the air, slapping another one dead also, he then went to the other missiles and with his own mobility and quickly knocked each one onto the ground in succession.

Joren was understandably horrified.

"What the..." He tried flicking his fingers to motion his missiles to move but those weren't working. "How the..." He saw that the missiles were still on the grass but ropes of water were keeping them down like a tent. "W-Wait a minute!"

"Even though [Whiplash] cannot conduct [Hamon] in the way like [Hermit Purple], it can get it conduct it if I touch." Tsumugu gave a shit-eating smirk as he spoke through the ghost, the real Tsumugu on the floor unconscious. "Unfortunately, it doesn't have that much [Hamon] because it's a ghost and not much a physical thing so it couldn't get that much [Hamon] on it but little is enough."

The ghost began running towards them now, the two teens immediately freak out as Joren's [Stand] could not even stop the user, even more so the [Stand]. "[ZOOM PUNCH]!" He yelled out, his arm extending and trying to punch through the ghost with desperation but it went through him. "OH FUCK NO-"

The ghost came and punched him in the gut, the boy spat out blood once the fist of the ghost hit him in the gut. Sharo was speechless as the ghost now began rapidly punching Joren all over his body. The boy who was currently being pummeled felt the strikes were weak, only being able go hit him thanks to the [Hamon]-infused fists but the sheer quickness and accuracy of the strikes were ridiculous.

"MUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDA!" The ghost cried out as it continued to punch him, until the boy was already being launched into the air. "MUDA!" [Whiplash] then delivered one last strike to the face of the boy. Joren was sent flying away high into the air where the ghost quickly flew above him. "[CLEAR GHOSTLY OVERDRIVE]!"

The ghost had all of its [Hamon] unleashed upon the poor boy in midair much to Sharo's horror. It began pummeling him with rapid strikes to his entire body, each like a jab that are were so expertly trained that even with the small doses of [Hamon] [Whiplash] had, Tsumugu trained himself to make sure he made even the tiniest bit hurt like a bitch.

"JOJO!" Sharo cried out, [Whiplash] then grabbed Joren by the waist and slammed him back into the grass. The boy was bleeding profusely and was unconscious. [Whiplash] then disappeared and went back to its user who began standing up from the grass.

'JoJo couldn't even hurt the [Stand]!' Sharo thought as she ran to the boy on the floor, even though she couldn't see [Whiplash] she saw some sparks of [Hamon] during the best/worst beatdown she's ever seen. "Are you alright?!"

She shook his body, then realizing it was a dumb question to ask if he was okay. "C'mon!" She placed a hand on him and healed him a bit but alas, he was still asleep and wounds were still everywhere. "O-Oh my-how do I-"

"Wow, you seem to care for him a bit too much. And I thought he wanted to bang Cocoa." A voice next to her surmised, Sharo jumped when she saw Tsumugu who was right beside her. "What? I'm just as concerned as you are!"

The girl plopped on the floor, fear going through her body. 'Oh no, I'm done for!' She thought grimly. 'Why'd my life have to end like this? I just got this cool power that Chiya-chan doesn't have and now on my first day of training, I'm going to die! Why does everything have to go wrong for me?"

"Geez, why are people afraid of me all the time?" Tsumugu sighed, looking at the blonde. "I'm not going to kill you! Where's the fun in that?" Instead of raping or mutilating her, the man let out a hand with a bright smile on his face. Sharo opened her eyes and blinked, seeing the aura of evil go away and was replaced by this friendly atmosphere. "Wanna get out out of that grass?"

"Y-Yes." She nervously replied and reached her hand up and was pulled back to her feet by him. Sharo just looked up, seeing how gentle he was with his pretty boy face before blushing. "T-Thank you..."

"No sweat. However JoJo over here looks like just a simple tug wouldn't wake him up." They looked at the boy, rain running down his face as his blood began to harden into scabs. "Yikes, he couldn't even fight back, I didn't even give him a chance-" Sharo then slapped his face with a [Hamon]-induced hand. "OW!"

"That's for JoJo!" She began berating him. "You've just beat him up you creepy pretty man!" She ran to her friend and grabbed his body. Tsumugu rubbed the burn mark what she left and felt what power she held. "C'mon...wake up you Filipino p-piece of shit." The waitress was resorting to cursing now despite the improbability racism will wake him.

"Ouch, that's some [Ripple]." Tsumugu rubbed his cheek, healing himself but he still felt the sting. "I can tell Hol Horse that I was slapped by a flat chested waitress."

"You shut up!" The aforementioned flat chested waitress shouted at him. "You c-come here, hurt my friend and then pretend it's a small thing! Do you think this looks okay!" She held up Joren's bruised face to him, attempting to sound as intimidating as possible. "Well?"

"Eh, I don't take life seriously." He shrugged. "What's the point of life if all you do is whine about the economy, worry about work, wonder when David Bowie's going to die? Life should be fun! Responsibility sucks! It's better to not care because life is a bunch of fleeting moments all about WORK, why do I have to give back to the world and society if I can't live my own life?"

He then healed his face entirely after the slap, putting his hand to his chin. "You know, you're a strong [Ripple] user." He complimented as Sharo attempted to heal Jorenk with what she got. "I may have a proposition for you..."

"I'm busy!" She replied curtly. "JoJo, Joren y-you gotta wake up now!"

"How about I heal him?" That got her attention. "I'm much stronger than you and more experienced, I mastered healing more than most masters so I could heal him."

"W-Well do it!" Sharo commanded him. "He might die right now if you don't do it!"

"No, no, no, Sharo." He waved his finger. "The proposition is that you have to hold your own against me." Her jaw dropped instantly. "Not defeat, just hold your own and let me taste your potential." He licked his lips briefly but didn't have any euphemism attached to the action. "I won't use [Whiplash], I'll even go easy. If you are able to I'll heal JoJo and you if you sustained any injuries in the fight."

Sharo thought about the offer, immediately not wanting to pass the chance but felt something bugging her. "A-And if I can't hold my own?"

"Eh, you still have potential to be a very powerful person, with or without [Stand]." He told her. "Also I can possess you for an entire minute and walk away without healing anybody."

"WHAT?!"

"Yeah, you don't have a [Stand] so I can possess you." Tsumugu had another smirk strewn across his face. "When I possess someone who doesn't have a [Stand], I have access to their memories, ALL OF THEM!" This made her frightened. "Every secret, every crush, every person you know, I will know also even if I'm out of the body already. I can hunt your family down and cut their fingers off and leave them at your doorstep! Plus, I will know your ultimate secret..."

"W-What?"

"IF YOU WEAR A BRA OR NOT!" This made her now absolutely terrified. "Look at bust size! I've seen wood less flat than that!" He pointed at her chest. "Do we have a deal?"

Sharo wanted to say no and not risk her...secrets being exposed but she looked back at Joren who was on the floor, she then decided.

"Okay. I'm going to do it."

"You didn't stutter this time. Good." Tsumugu walked to the opposite side of the center of the meadow, excitement pounding his heart because he'll feel power of the [Ripple] not seen since Jonathan Joestar. "Show me all the power you have stored inside you Sharo! Fill me with the feeling of satisfaction!"

'He's go easy on me...but I don't know how strong he is when he's going on easy!' Sharo went to her position and prepared her stance. '[Whiplash] beat JoJo up even though not much [Hamon] was put in it because the movements of its user were precise. He trained himself to the point he could make a ghost get [Hamon] even though it isn't a physical thing.'

She prepared to breathe. 'But I gotta do this for Joren, I gotta think outside the box-' An idea popped to her head. 'That's it! I forgot I had this just in case I needed an extra kick during training!' She took out a thermos from...somewhere and began chucking it down her throat, feeling in painful to hot coffee going down her throat but still continued. 'Hope this works!'

"What is she doing?" Tsumugu just looked as he saw the blonde drink coffee just before the battle, not knowing Sharo's 'trigger'. "Poor kid, trying to drink away her sorrows. KOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!" He breathed loudly, a small amount of [Hamon] going through him, barely enough to even kill a human but to Tsumugu, it was overkill already. He showed Joren this same amount as [Whiplash] and that still beat him up.

Sharo finished chugging down all the coffee before putting back thermos back up where she took it out from. 'I gotta breathe now or else caffeine will take over my mind and I''ll forget.'

"KOOOOOOOOOOOH!" [Hamon] coursed through the girl's body, she felt the caffeine begin to set in. "Here I go-!"

"Okay, now I gotta-hmm?" A [MENACING] aura surrounded the girl who still breathed but for a longer time than most [Ripple] users breathe. "She might run out of breathe at this rate-THE FUCK!"

He blocked a blow from Sharo who just kicked attempted to kick him but he blocked with his arm. "Grr, that was fast." He felt some of her [Hamon] go to his arm but countered it with his own [Hamon] to neutralize it.

"WOO! YOU'RE STRONG EVEN THOUGHT YOU'RE HOLDING BACK!" The girl shouted at him at the top of her lungs. Tsumugu was surprised at how louder she was now but saw this 'energy' in her eyes. "YOU READY TO GO?!"

"Sure!" He replied, smiling because this was an interesting turn of events. 'She's high on caffeine, maybe I shoulda spied on them earlier to find that out to learn that.'

Sharo kicked herself away from him, her mind clouded with thoughts of battle. Her opponent attempted to run after her but then saw her begin laughing. "What's so funny?"

"You didn't notice but when I transferred my [Hamon] through my leg, I didn't aim to hurt you! I needed to cover your body with something!"

"What are you talking about-HMPF!" The moment he attempted to move, the man fell on the floor. "Eh?" He gasped out, he titled his head to the side and saw two long blades of grass were wrapped around his legs like a rope. "H-How?"

"You didn't notice it but when I kicked you, I threw some blades of grass I've infused with [Hamon] onto your legs and made them wrap around you!" She proclaimed. "I grew them just before the battle when I didn't drink this GREAT coffee!"

"Clever girl..." The Brando complimented. "However..." The blades of grass were ripped apart once he moved his legs. "One can cancel [Hamon]-induced objects with their own [Hamon]. I may not have a clear perception of the world other people may say but I at least know basic magnetism with the positive and the negative charges!" He rose back up, wiping the wet grass off him again. "But not bad, kiddo."

"Thanks! Even holding back, you're still pretty strong!" She returned the compliment. "But you shouldn't have complimented me instead of taking the chance because I knew you'd find a way to break my grass! What do you think I am, stupid?"

"Well no, I was thinking, GACK-" He felt a fist connect to his face, a [Zoom Punch] and it felt like needles brushed against his cheek, leaving puncture wounds. "What the-?" He saw as the fists retracted back and it had blood on it but not wounds. "Ah, I see what you did-" He was hit in the fave by another [Zoom Punch]. "...there."

"When I healed JoJo-kun, my knuckles have his blood on it, still fresh." She continued to perform [Zoom Punches] on the man, a barrage of fists coming from both sides and pricking his face. "I've made spikes on the blood, now these fists are ready not only to punch but to wound!"

"That's when you're wrong." With a sudden tilt, Tsumugu moved his head and dodged the blow from the right arm. "The problem with [Zoom Punch] is..." He grasped the arm. "You're always open."

He twisted the arm, making Sharo hiss, despite the caffeine subduing her pain, in reality it was agonizing. [Zoom Punch] required to use [Hamon] to lessen the pain when the arm stretches but since process was interrupted, her arm remained broken and was longer than it should have been.

Good thing this was part of her plan.

"Heh...HAHAHAHAHAHA!" She began laughing maniacally as Tsumugu held her arm. He looked confused again, wondering how many things she has up her sleeve despite her first day of training. "You are now in phase three of my plan!"

"Hmm?" He saw her other arm, which was extended also right below his cheek. "What are you doing now?" The man didn't know what was going on, he had been fair to her as possible even a single strike would be fatal to the girl, potential or not so that was why he was on the defensive.

"I'm gathering your blood, leaking from your face." Tsumugu touched his cheek and felt blood trickle down the wounds that were created. "The blood of JoJo-kun's is hardening so I can't use it much."

"Use it for what exactly?"

"This!" She poured [Hamon] into the blood on her left hand, turning it into a spinning disc. "I've gathered enough blood to manipulate it into a saw!" Her hand had a miniature saw made of his blood spinning around on her palm. "Who's the master of the [Ripple] now?" She mocked arrogantly.

"But Sharo my dear." The man adopted an accent akin to Alex from A Clockwork Orange. "You've left yourself wide open for my counterattack!"

"Wait, w-what?" She stuttered out, Tsumugu knew that whatever superpower ability she had under the influence of caffeine was wearing out gradually was reverting her back to old Sharo. Now he has taken her out of focus, her saw made of his blood stopped spinning momentarily and began dripping itself away onto the grass.

Now it was his chance.

"You fell for it!" Before she could react again, he jabbed a finger into her broken arm, jabbing it into her flesh. "Now, I will use [Hamon] to get rid of a certain thing inside of you as of this moment."

"W-WAIT! WHAT THE FU-" An electric-like energy came out of the girl's arm, her arms retracted as she grasped her right one, seeing Tsumugu's power. She attempted to use her own [Hamon] against it but her left hand was repelled. Sharo laid on the grass, feeling herself get healed and the [Hamon] stopping and closing the hole he made by jabbing his fingers. "W-What did you do?" She was suddenly exhausted afterward.

"I simply got rid of the caffeine in your body. Nothing physically bad done, I've even fixed the wound I've made." Her opponent beamed at her, standing above her. "One small frame of weakness can be the end of you, remember that. Oh, but I guess you just lost."

Her eyes widened in horror. She did lose and now she was paying the price for it. "Hey, why are you scared? You won't feel a thing..."

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! SENPAI HELP ME!" Sharo screamed out, being her usual nervous and shy self. Tsumugu just looked at her and attempted to hold his laughter but couldn't. As the girl was afraid for her mind, he was busy being a maniac.

"Ha...holy shit that was amazing." He wiped a tear from his eye, seeing how terrified Sharo was. "You became a pussy the moment you thought I would actually use my [Stand] on you, you even screamed for Rize of all people."

Sharo opened her eyes, turning red out of embarrassment. "H-Hang on! You're aren't going to possess my mind and give me a tattoo?"

"Of course not! I've said that if you can at least hold your own against me, I won't possess you." Sharo remembered what he said earlier, wondering if the caffeine made her forget momentarily. "You'e surprised me. Back at where they taught me the [Ripple], I faced against senior users and beat them all, after the first attack. You've held yourself by three attacks, on your first day also so that shocked me."

Tsumugu went to Joren, suddenly making a hole in the boy with his fist much to Sharo's horror. "If you were more confident in your power, you can...probably kill me if I amputated and had some brain damage." That didn't sound like a joke, that sounded like a necessity for their next match. "Look. There he goes." Joren was fully healed now, the scabs falling off his face. Tsumugu removed his fists from his body, closing the wound.

"Welp, time for me to go." The Brando began walking away from the scene, Sharo ran up to the boy and looked at his body to inspect if all wounds were closed. "Keep training! I sense a lot of things in you!"

"W-Wait!" Sharo yelled out, stopping the villain un his tracks. "Why are you doing this? Sending [Stands] after us? You stealing things, why do you need to do those things?" From what the girl's seen, she knows Tsumugu was a good man from his attitude, a bit sadistic but good despite his mysterious but villainous goals.

"That sounded cliché." He simply scoffed at her attempts at questioning. "I'm sending enemies, stealing things, and beating you guys for fun because of one thing..."

"W-What?"

"I wanna screw around with life." He grinned at her. "Tootles!" He ran away, leaving the girl pondering on what his goals were. She looked down at Joren who was still asleep but this time peacefully on her lap, she then stared at the thermos that came out of her asshole or whatever, wondering if she caffeine as an attack.

"Ah...paizuri..." The Joestar talking in his sleep startled her so much, she hit his face with the thermos, rendering him comatose again. "O-Oops." The rain stopped and the clouds parting away.


"Hey." Tsumugu greeted Hol Horse in the laboratory who simply tipped his hat in reply. "Bring anything home for me?"

"Sandwiches from a bakery." Hol Horse presented a paper bag. "It's two Club sandwiches, hope you like 'em."

"Oh boy, I do." He smelled the contents of the bag, despite not being as fresh it smelled delicious even with the damp and moist air around them. "Did you eat?"

"I had dinner with our next [Stand] user, enjoyed a decent meal in the Amaufa-an." The cowboy said. "Not a pretty sight, how he ate."

"Ama Usa An." Tsumugu corrected, grabbing a sandwich. "The worst typo I've ever seen in my life, also worst choice to eat in the enemy's restaurant."

"Why did you go there to fight Joestar and that girl he's training?" Hol Horse quickly changed the subject. "Sounds pointless and sets back your plan even more."

"You don't know the formula here." His boss unwrapped his sandwich. "I show up and show how strong I am, the heroes try to get stronger but get more mishaps along with way, then the final battle happens!" Now the older man was even more confused. "Look, I want more chaos, once they hear I'm Dio's son, the Joestar family and the Speedwagon Foundation will flock here like animals, isn't that great?"

"No, it isn't!" Hol Horse exclaimed. "I've been shot in the head once, I ain't going to get another one."

"Oh shush, let me enjoy the sandwich." Tsumugu replied as he bit into it. "We need an audience for good old dad and what better way to have a special guest is that guest is someone who tried to shoot him once!"

Now Hol Horse wished he had Dio kill him back in Egypt.


"Dammit!" Joren clutched his phone as he walked in circles in the Ama Usa An. Cocoa, Sharo, and Chiya looked at him in concern. Sharo brought in the boy and called Cocoa to meet them in the café. "How could I let this happen?"

"It isn't your fault you were beaten so easily, JoJo-kun." Chiya offered her condolences. Sharo and Cocoa sweatdropped, knowing that wasn't a good response.

"No, it isn't that." He stated, gripping his fists. "He's a Brando. We thought all of them were accounted for back in 2011." Joren grasped his head un frustration. Cocoa went up to him and grabbed him by the shoulders. "Hmm?"

"Do you want a hug, JoJo-kun?" She spoke to him like a child. This snapped him out of his serious phase and shook his head. "No? Aww..." She went back to petting Anko. Chiya and Sharo sighed in relief, seeing their friend loosen up.

"What's so important about this Tsumugu person? Is it his [Stand]? Is it his [Ripple] powers?" Sharo asked him. "Why is it so important he has to be a Brando?"

"Brando. His father is Dio Brando, a vampire." This came out as a shock for the girls, never hearing him call someone's father a vampire, something from myth. "Yes, vampires are real. I just called my old man and the Foundation, bet word will reach around the family soon."

"V-Vampire?!" Cocoa took out [Tusk], both the [Stand] and the user shaking. "First he's a ghost now there's a vampire? Chiya-chan, hold me!" Joren wanted to groan at their reaction.

"Chumimi-~in!" [Tusk] cried out, grabbing onto Chiya's arm. Joren was still pacing back and forth, wondering who was Tsumugu Brando. He looked seemingly younger than his other half-brothers and knew the [Ripple] shockingly enough, Dio's diary did mention children but still...

"At least tell us why a vampire had a c-child?" Even Sharo was spooked right now, hearing vampires are real things. Joren inhaled before sighing.

"You wanna know?" He asked them, everybody nodded as he rubbed his new birthmark. "Okay, this is going to be a looooooong story, like if it were a series, this entire story will have to be divided into six parts. Ready?"

"Oh! JoJo-kun's going to tell us a story!" Cocoa and [Tusk] looked excited, wondering what tale he has for them and something to clear up the exact goal of him being in Kaanin is for. Chiya and Sharo looked interested also.

"Okay, it starts with a noblewoman buying a fucking mask."

Eventually, Joren began telling them the entire history of his family's battle with the supernatural in a powerful and yet poetic way, using body movements because of how bizarre the story was. He currently told them the 'Phantom Blood' story and its near end.

"W-Why did JoJo have to die?!" Cocoa had tears running down her eyes when she heard the death Jonathan Joestar. Sharo and Chiya were weeping also when they heard of his death.

"H-He was so young..." Sharo put her hand over her mouth in grief.

"This happened more than a hundred years ago, suck it up." He simply told them. Afterward he began telling them the story of 'Battle Tendency'.

"CAAAAAAAAAEEEEEEESAAAAAAAAAR!" They all screamed out, making him jump seeing they haven't cried this hard in awhile since Jonathan's death.

"Cocoa-chan, hold me!" Chiya cried into Cocoa's shoulder for comfort after hearing the death of the Zeppeli. "Why...Caesar..."

After that crying session, he then talked about the 'Stardust Crusaders', of course they also screamed when Avdol, Iggy, and Kakyoin died but then heard the badassery that was the ending which involved a steamroller.

"Jotaro-san is so cool!" Sharo admired Joren's nephew who was much older than his uncles. "S-Stopping time? That sounds overpowered!"

"Not as overpowered as you think." Joren said. "Turns out stopping time damaged his heart, Dio could do it because he's a vampire and all. Jotaro's [Star Platinum]'s durability is so low by now."

"Oh..." Sharo retracted her statement, feeling a bit bad.

Then he told the story of 'Diamond is Not Crash' that involved his brother, obviously they were horrified that a man like Yoshikage Kira killed so many people with families still looking for them.

"T-That's terrible!" Cocoa exclaimed, hearing how Shigechi died. "N-Nothing left?!" She gaped at the sheer brutality he described the death and how Reimi saw his ascendence since there was no body, he had to go up into heaven whule disintegrating brutally.

"We presume he died using the doorknob where a bomb was implanted." The boy theorized. "The thing I am most scared of is [Killer Queen]. It may not be the most powerful [Stand] but with the right hands, it can even take out Dio even."

"J-Just like that? That's how they died?" Chiya even stuttered out, hearing how terrifying [Killer Queen] was especially in comparison to her [Stand]. Sharo was so frozen in fear at the story, she was under the table.

"Welcome my nightmares, girls." Joren shivered, thankful Kira is dead and he couldn't meet such a dangerous man. He then went on to talk about 'Vento Aureo' or 'Golden Wind' story.

"T-The [Arrow] can do that?!" Cocoa yelled out, hearing [Requiem Stands]. "Can the [Gyro Ball] do that?"

"If it were shaped like an [Arrow], yes but seems like it can only give [Stands] thanks to its shape." Joren wondered that also, if shaping the [Gyro Ball] into an [Arrow] will have the same effect but he didn't want anybody to find out about that. "Sure...I guess."

Cocoa jumped up and grabbed him by the shoulders. "I want [Tusk Requiem]!" She told him. Chiya wanted to join on the fun.

"I want [Snow Halation Requiem] too, it shall be like a blizzard, freezing everything across the nation."

'Why can't I have a [Stand]?' Sharo whined in her mind. 'Oh wait, because I'm flat chested and always nervous.'

He then finished off the story with 'Stone Ocean' that involved Jolyne and even more of Dio's sons (who he felt bad for thanks to their backstories). Jotaro was the one who dragged Pucci out of the Kennedy Space Center before he could even set foot on the property and beat him to death thanks to stopping time.

It was more anti-climatic than it sounded but Jotaro was badass so it didn't matter.

"And that's how it all leads up here." He finished, rubbing his new birthmark. "Now we have a ball, a coffin, and a mask along with another one of Dio's son."

"Why didn't Tsumugu-san use the Stone Mask to make himself the ULTIMATE FORM LIVING BEING?!" Chiya suddenly raised her voice to emphasize the power of the the Red Stone. JoJo wondered why Tsumugu didn't do that also, the thought just came up in his mind.

"I don't know why, I guess he's saving it for something. I dunno." He replied. "Perhaps but luckily he didn't fry the entire town yet."

"I heard that children born between vampires and humans are called 'dhampires'." Chiya mentioned. "Does Tsumugu-san have vampiric abilities?"

"He conceived through body of my great-grandfather when the body still resisted him." He answered. "I can presume Dio found a way to make him one way or another before the body submitted."

"T-This is really bizarre." Sharo was deep in thought. "First we had vampires, then Aztec gods, then we went to Egypt, then [Killer Queen], t-then the mafia, and then finally prison!"

"Point is, he's still Dio's son, that explains him stealing the coffin but why the [Gyro Ball] and the Stone Mask?" Joren wondered. "How does he even know about Dio, the only person who is close enough to know about the plans is-"

Pucci.

It was fucking Pucci that told him. Dio let the priest in on his plans and didn't write it down on his diary, then before his death, Pucci went to Tsumugu and told him about his father. Alternatively, when Pucci died, a small inheritance went to Tsumugu, with a detailed memoir telling him EVERYTHING.

"S-Shit." He dug his bitten fingernails into his skin. "Pucci gave him all the info, not sure how or why exactly but somehow he did." He had to make another call for his father to check Pucci's will. "There's also the matter of his [Ripple]."

It is no secret that Jonathan Joestar was one, if not THE most powerful [Ripple] user of all time despite being straightforward than most of the Joestars. Jotaro once theorized some [Hamon] would rub off on his biological children, luckily they never learned the [Ripple] thanks to their [Stands] and lack of awareness of their real father.

Except Tsumugu.

Did Pucci make him learn? Tsumugu learned in Nepal, he said to them earlier, so did he train before or after learning about Dio? Damn, there were so many questions to answer. Joren wanted to contact Jotaro to head there to whatever [Ripple]-using monastery to find where he trained.

"Wait, did you mention his [Stand] was a ghost?" Cocoa pipped up. "Did he see me take a shower? I don't want a creepy person watching me take a bath!"

"SHOOT!" Joren realized Cocoa was right. The most dangerous part of Tsumugu was [Whiplash] that could be spying on them this very moment. "Guys, check Sharo."

"W-Why me-" Cocoa and Chiya grabbed the girl and began unbuttoning her blazer. "H-HEY!"

"We must see if you're possessed, Sharo-chan." Chiya told her, trying to get rid of all the buttons.

"We must see if you're secretly a man, Sharo-chan!" Cocoa yelled, even going as far to remove the blonde's skirt.

"Oh my goodness guys, stop." Joren was covering his eyes. "Just look at the back of her neck."

"Oh right." The two girls looked at the back of Sharo's neck. "She's not possessed!"

"Yeah, I'm not!" Sharo pushed the two away. "Did you check Anko?"

"Anko?" Chiya looked at her pet. "Can [Whiplash] even possess animals?"

Joren grabbed Anko, and began looking through his fur for any Joestar mark. "Nothing. He probably doesn't even know where we are."

"Yes I do." Their hearts all stopped when they heard a voice around them. "I just finished dinner, so I'm here right on the brink on time!"

"Where are you?!" The bot shouted out only to be met with laughter. "I'll take you on again, second round!"

[Hamon] coursed through his hands but he was only left with laughter from the Brando.

"Oh JoJo, you don't even know where I fucking am!" The sound of the flapping of wings went through his ears, he looked and saw a dragonfly hover next to him. "Whoops, now you do."

"[SNOW HALATION]!" Chiya's [Stand] manifested itself but the dragonfly was faster, dodging the gust of icy wind by an inch. "H-He's fast!"

"[TUSK]!" Cocoa called out but Chiya grabbed her arm. "C-Chiya-chan?"

"I work here, don't damage my home." Her friend warned, the dragonfly zoomed past them then suddenly the ghostly projection of Tsumugu came out of the bug.

"Good thing I can still use my [Stand] when I possess." He said to them. "Unfortunately not my [Ripple], ugh."

"Get out of here you creep!" Joren was furious, seeing the man who humiliated him again. "What's the point of being here now?"

"I wanted to make some peace with you guys!" Tsumugu replied, grabbing his transparent chest in hurt. "Can I just have that? I swear I promise!"

"J-JoJo." Sharo came up to the angered boy and whispered to his ear. "He will keep his word. He did when he healed you."

The boy finally stiffened before sighing. "Alright, what's your offer?"

"I won't spy on any of you anymore, any of you. I'll still fly around like a ghost but don't blame me if we coincidently bump into each other. Hol Horse will still text you for incoming [Stand] users, I won't interrupt your [Ripple] training, if we meet coincidentally in real life also, we'll pass each other and pretend we don't exist. Okay?"

Joren nodded slowly in agreement. "Anything else?"

"I want to bring my dad back."

Silence came over them, the girls' blood were frozen, just hearing the bloody and cursed legacy Dio left behind across history now being smacked that his son was going to bring him back. Joren was calm, as he suspected that since getting info on what he stole.

"Why?"

"He said to me that he can bring me [Heaven] and make life more...interesting on Earth if I did."

"He told you?" Now the Joestar was confused. "Dio talked to you?"

"I talk to dead people." Tsumugu then vanished, leaving all of them behind and with their thoughts, before their faces turned to ones of horror at the implications.


"HE CAN TALK TO D-DIO?!" Joseph shrieked at the other line despite his lungs making his voice seem hoarse. "But his soul was destroyed!"

"Seems like so but he said 'I talk to dead people'. Do you think Dio's soul survived even though [The World] is broken?" Joren gave a glance to Cocoa who had her eyes wide awake. "Is it because of [Whiplash] Dio somehow survived?"

"I don't know. I'll have Jotaro go to Nepal and have the Foundation look at Tsumugu's history and Pucci's will." His father informed him. "I'll send your brother to you at the nearest possible time."

"What about Jolyne, Giorno?"

"Jolyne's going with Jotaro, I'm leaving Giorno out of this. Might complicate things more." Joseph sighed over the line. "Don't worry, Speedwagon Foundation members will be sent around Kaanin also."

"Good." The boy agreed. "I'm going to end the call, if Tsumugu isn't hearing this then one of his minions might be tampering the line."

"Alright, bye. Hey, at least I can say you're my actual son since you have my birthmark now."

"Bye. I'll pretend this mark is a tattoo." He turned off the phone and glanced back at Cocoa, fidgeting with the star on the back of his neck. "You scared?"

"It's a vampire! He's trying to bring back a vampire?" Cocoa jumped up, grabbed him and then shook him. "You said people killed by vampires becomes zombies like in The Walking Dead!"

'[Stand]-using zombies?' Joren didn't want to think of that. "Don't worry, I won't let that happen."

He got off he grip and went towards their closet. He opened it and began digging through it.

"JoJo?"

Joren took out a box for a case of some sorts, inside of it was the [Gyro Ball], he felt it moving inside, attempting to break free and find more users. "What a pain you are." He placed it back in the closet, going to his futon. "Go back to sleep, Cocoa. I got enough things to worry about."

"But I want to watch Doctor Who..." The girl trailed off. "Also is your brother coming? You said he has ridiculous hair!"

"Don't tell him I said that!" The two began bickering, meanwhile they didn't notice the sound of the case falling in the closet...


"Pucci." Dio went to his friend in a secondary headquarters he had. He met the priest in training already in the hideout but called the man again the day before the priest was going to leave Cairo. "It has been a while."

"Yes, Dio." Pucci smiled at his friend. "It has been a long while."

"Pucci...will you ever betray me?" That was a question he asked again since their last meeting. "I don't doubt your loyalty, I just wish for the truth."

"I have never thought of it." Pucci repeated the same answer for the second time. "Do you require my services? Do wish for me to attack Joestar and his company?"

"No, my servants are doing it for me." Dio held a vial up for him to see. "Pucci...this contains my sperm. I know your beliefs do not extend to sperm banks but I need this child to be born in a human."

"You are correct. Human children should not be born through artificial means, even though all life God has created is sacred." Pucci affirmed. "However, who's to say this child shall be born human? You possessing a different body does not guarantee this child shall be seen as life to the Lord. No offense, Dio."

"Enya recommended I create a child without writing it in my diary. I wish for you to take my child and send him or her through a sperm bank, any." The vampire instructed. "Leave his or her parents be, let them raise the child still without any deliberate supernatural events surrounding them but check on them every occasion for good measure."

"Then what shall I do next?"

"The next choices shall be decided by you; if the time you deem is right, give the child a memoir of me, the Joestar bloodline and every occurrence of our involvement throughout history, in the past or in the future by the time you send it."

"My other choice?"

"If you die by then, put the memoir in your will and he shall inherit it." Dio told him. "I expect some 'fate' shall lead him to his destiny. Do you still have the [Arrowhead] I gave you?" The priest nodded, knowing what Dio was asking him to do with it.

"I still do. Pardon me but why have a child through unnatural means?" Pucci asked him. "You have a son already, you've already conceived more."

"Do you remember my plan to achieve [Heaven], Pucci?" Dio reminded. "If I could not, you shall achieve it for me and we shall both ascend there along with all of humanity."

"I remember every word."

"If you or I...perish in those events, I wish for a third backup plan. One that nobody would know, to bring at least one of use back if not both." Dio explained in a soft tone, tensing up after mentioning him and Pucci being defeated potentially in the fire; Dio admitted defeat to Jonathan, not anybody else.

"I understand." The priest agreed. "Your child shall either bring [Heaven] or bring back the people who shall make [Heaven] on Earth."

"Yes, they shall." Dio handed Pucci the vial, and that cemented the birth of a boy named Tsumugu.

TO BE CONTINUED


[Stand] Name: [Whiplash]

[Stand] User: Tsumugu Brando

Destructive Power- E

Speed- C

Range- B

Durability- A

Precision- B

Development Potential- D

Abilities- The [Stand] allows it's user to go as 'astral' or ghostly projection where they can fly and go through objects but can't interact with things in the physical world, even other [Stands]. The ghostly form can posses non-[Stand] users but not actual [Stand] users, it can only 'influence' them like planting a command in the target's subconscious but this can be broken through extreme willpower. [Whiplash] can possess any living thing and have access to their memories. Somehow with every possession and 'influence', it leaves a star-shaped birthmark at the back of the neck to the victim. The [Stand] has a true form and [Hamon] can flow through the ghost, enabling it to have contact with the physical world briefly but it's setback by being a low conductor of [Hamon] which results the [Hamon] to be weak and having a very limited time to be used even if a [Ripple] user pours all their [Hamon] into the ghost. The [Stand] still can be used even as a possessed.


Wow, that was a lot of spoilers for everyone who only watched the anime. I also love the ending of DiU, just finished. Hope Vento Aureo is in production already.

Um, if you don't know where the Dio's diary content is from, I drew it from the light novel spinoff 'OVER HEAVEN' which transcripts Dio's diary and links all the events from Phantom Blood to Stone Ocean and it hints [The World] is Jonathan's [Stand].

That ironically means Dio got his own version of [Hermit Purple]. Dunno how canon OVER HEAVEN is but I accept it more than Jorge Joestar as canon. There are 36 Kars on Mars, Kira names himself Kira Kira for Lisa Lisa, George Joestar II who is Joseph's dad calls Kars senpai. Also Kars convinces [Killer Queen] to join him. Wow, this involves lots of Kars.

If you like this fic, review, fav, and follow or else Kars will use [Made in Heaven Requiem]. Sounds painful. Oh look, me editing beyond 7,000 words is no longer lagging the editor.
