"So, h-how many people did Jotaro kill?" Holly asked concerned about her son.
"Kill!?" Midoriya cried out.
"Tokoyami, your brother didn't really-?!" Uraraka started in concern.
"No, no. Don't worry. My mother just overreacted when she heard Jotaro was arrested for fighting." Tokoyami assured them.
However, before the cops could even attempt to answer, she turned away and covered her ears. "No! I take it back!" Holly cried out, swaying back and forth in mild panic.
"Settle down. Nobody said anything about him killing people." One of the cops told her.
"He got into a fight, that's all." The second officer assured her, causing her to stop.
"The truth is, the thugs he tangled with were all armed with nunchucks and knives. He fought four punks, one being an ex-boxer. And he broke fifteen of their bones. And he busted their balls." The first cop informed her.
"Damn. Not bad. And what's his Quirk, again?" Bakugo asked.
"He's stronger than your average person, but that's more because of how big he is. We always thought he was Quirkless. But apparently, he has one of these 'Stands'." Tokoyami explained.
"That makes his victory even more impressive, assuming this Stand didn't do all the work. Not that street fights should be encouraged, of course." All Might said.
"Still, does no one else think it's crazy how so many of our strongest classmates seem to have Quirkless siblings?" Sato asked.
He then raised a hand in apology. "Sorry if that was crude. He put all of them in the hospital." He finished giving her the details.
"Things could've been a lot worse! He's gotta be shown the severity of his actions!" The policeman's partner scolded.
Holly then became relieved that her eldest son didn't kill someone. "Okay!" Holly responded cheerfully.
"The real issue is what happened afterward." The policeman said, filing some paperwork and handing it to a woman behind a desk. "Gotta tell ya, that son of yours is a strange one! Even when you compare him to his brother with a bird head!" He added.
The teachers amd students all growled at the jab at their student. "These cops will find themselves without a job when we get back." Aizawa said.
"And they might just come down with sudden hearing loss." Present Mic added.
"Yeah! No one makes fun of Tokoyami when we're around!" Hagakure cheered.
The officers would then walk through some doors with Holly taking her to where the cells were. "Okay. We'll show you the way." The first officer told her.
"Thank you for everything." Holly replied.
"You can thank me by taking your kid home" The officer requested.
This surprised Holly. "So then, does that mean you're releasing him?" She asked.
"Well, we can't keep him in here forever. By the way ma'am, I have to tell you, your Japanese is really quite good. Just how long have you been living in Japan?" He asked.
"For 20 years now." Holly responded.
"Oh, your mother isn't originally from Japan?" Ojiro asked.
"No. She was originally from America. Our grandfather is British, but moved to America just out of his teens with his Italian wife." Tokoyami asked.
"My, your family heritage is quite diverse, Tokoyami. I wonder if your grandfather knows of any good teas?" Yaoyorozu asked.
"Not that this isn't fascinating, but I thought we were here to learn about his 'Stand' power, not hear how good your mother's Japanese is." Todoroki said.
"Ah, that explains it, then." He accepted, briefly stopping to salute some other officers. "This place has been overrun lately. We got an entire backlog of criminals and we aren't even able to find cells for them." He told her.
"Your son's just up ahead, ma'am." The second policeman informed her.
"Jotaro!" Holly called, then ran to where Jotaro was while visions of him and Holly throughout his young life were shown.
"Jotaro, throw the ball to Mom! That's it! Good boy!" Holly told a toddler version of Jotaro as he caught the ball.
"Do your best at that track meet tomorrow!" She called to him as she remembered a preteen Jotaro running track.
"I will!" He assured her as he ran ahead of all the other kids.
"Jotaro! You did it! Let's go out to eat and celebrate!" She said to a teenage Jotaro as he stood in uniform for prep school as a small bird-head boy looked up at him with a pale-skinned girl beside him.
"Hey, who's the girl? She's got some nice legs." Mineta said, drooling a bit.
"That is my older sister, Raven." Tokoyami said with a slight growl. "She's a year younger than Jotaro, but one year older than me. But her control of the darkness makes Dark Shadow seem insignificant by comparison." He warned.
"Yeah! She makes giant shadow birds bigger than a building! And she can bring 'em down, too!" Dark Shadow added.
"Nothing's as good as your cooking, Mom." He told her in a gentle and calm voice, putting on his hat, before picking up Fumikage with one arm and putting the other around Raven.
"Jotaro...Jotaro...Jotaro...Jotaro..." She kept calling as she remembered passing images of him in the following years after this.
"Jotaro!" Holly shouted once more as everything went black.
However, her memories of the sweet, innocent boy he was were shattered by the angry punk sitting in the cell. "Shut up! Get out of my face, you bitch!" Jotaro shouted furiously with a deep and rough voice befitting for a delinquent
Everyone (except Tokoyami) was shocked at Jotaro's response. "How vulgar! It's highly disrespectful to speak to one's own mother that way, especially after she has shown nothing but concern for you!" Iida cried out, robotically chopping so much that his arms looked liked blurs.
"I'm getting the vibe that 'disrespectful' is basically this guy's normal setting." Jiro said.
"Well, he's got a bit of a rough exterior, but it's also a FINE exterior." Ashido said, purring a bit as she observed the muscular jailbird.
"You still remember this is Tokoyami's brother, right? That might make things awkward." Asui reminded the pink girl.
"Okay!" Holly declared happily.
She then turned back to the officers. "I promise you, he's a very sweet boy! He's just not capable of doing something so appalling." Holly defended her son in while the "sweet boy" in question ignored her comments and just turned over his bed.
The taller policeman then kicked his cell. "Hey! On your feet, Tokoyami! You're being released! What part of "go home" don't you understand?!" He snapped at the boy. Jotaro then sent a menacing glare at the policemen, making them gulp in fear.
"Wow. What fine defenders of the police we have here." Shoji admitted.
"Come on, coppers! He's in a cell! Man up, already!" Kirishima told them.
Jotaro then sat up and looked at his mother. "Listen, Mom, you can leave. I'll be staying here for a while." He told her, causing her to gasp in shock. "Seems I've been possessed by an evil spirit. And I have no idea what it will make me do next. During the fight, it took all I had just to stop it. So do everyone a favor and leave me in this cage." He warned them, turning back to the wall.
The shorter officer sighed and scratched his head. "Jeez. For crying out loud..." He said, stepping up beside her. "Do you see what I'm talking about? We're trying to release him, but he refuses to go! I'm sorry to have to ask you this, but are you sure everything's alright with your boy upstairs?" He asked.
"This isn't a hotel, you know, ma'am!" The taller officer said.
Then suddenly, a group of men then ran up to the cell bars with fear written on their faces. "Come on! Let us change cells! Please!" One pleaded.
"He's not lying about the evil spirit thing!" Another insisted, before they all broke down into incomprehensible pleading.
"Whoa. Those guys seem really freaked out." Kaminari said, a bit unnerved.
"But if they believe it, then it has to be true, right? They wouldn't go along with it for no reason." Koda asked in concern.
"Alright! Alright! That's enough! Shut up!" The taller cop shouted while hitting the cell bars with his billy club, forcing the cellmates to go back.
Jotaro then grabbed a beer can and stabbed it the bottom creating a hole for him to shotgun the drink after popping the tab.
"Is he- seriously!?" The men in the cell asked.
"Put that down! You are too young to be drinking!" Iida commanded, somehow chopping even faster, to the point his arms looked like flesh-colored, vibrating walls in front of him.
"He may have a dramatic experience, but his behavior certainly lacks finesse." Aoyama agreed.
"What are you doing with a beer in a jail cell?! How did you even get that in there!?" The shorter policemen demanded.
Jotaro then finished his drink and released a deep burp while crushing the can, making the other cellmates run to the other side of the room, terrified. "I told you. I've got an evil spirit. And sometimes, it likes to bring me things." The delinquent answered. Then, a manga flew into his hand while the radio suddenly turned on by itself.
"Well, for being an EVIL spirit, this thing's pretty nice. I wouldn't mind a ghost bringing me free stuff." Sero pointed out.
"If by 'free', you mean 'stolen'." Aizawa told him.
"If it is indeed 'possessing' Jotaro, perhaps its wellbeing is tied to his, so keeping him in good health and spirits benefits it as well." Yaoyorozu theorized.
"But then this must mean that it can move quite a good distance away from Jotaro, unless there's a convenient store nearby." Midnight said.
"What the hell!? You're reading Shonen Jump while listening to a radio!" The short officer yelled.
"Sir, how is this possible?! We have a major problem here!" The other cop shouted.
"Hold it!" Jotaro declared while standing up from the bed. "This might not be enough to make you guys keep me locked up in here... But I'll show you how evil the spirit is, anyway." He said, approaching the bars and tossing his hat away as the men in the cell with him cowered. "Maybe then you'll see why letting me out of here is a bad idea." Jotaro declared, walking to the cell bar. He reached his arm and suddenly, a purple arm appeared and it grabbed the gun from one of the cops. It then yanked the gun, breaking the latch and it brought it to his hand.
"That's my gun he has in his hand! But how'd he-!?" The taller cop cried out.
"That's really bad!" The other panicked.
"No way! He stole the cop's gun without even touching it!" Mineta cried out.
"Are you blind, grape face?! You saw that purple arm come out, right?!" Bakugo questioned the smaller boy.
"Based on the reactions, it seems like the cops didn't see it, either. So, for some reason, it seems like not everyone is able to see these 'Stands'." Midoriya said, making a note in his journal.
"Gold star, Deku! Only other Stand Users can see Stands. The only reason YOU GUYS are seeing it now is because I'm allowing you to." Their hostess explained.
"Then if we were to run into a villain with a Stand, we'd never even realize. That could be a SERIOUS problem." All Might said, deeply concerned for his students in the event they came up against a threat they'd never see coming.
Jotaro then had the gun aimed at them. "You didn't see it just now?! Well, if you guys didn't see my evil spirit... Then watch this." Jotaro then pointed the gun to his head and readied the trigger.
"No! Jotaro!" Holly shouted desperately.
"Oh, my gosh! No!" Uraraka cried out.
"No, brother! Don't do it!" Tokoyami pleaded, in that moment forgetting that he already knew his brother survived this.
BANG! The gun then fired right at his head.
"NO!" Everyone shouted.
Everyone screamed. A lot was happening and they were to shocked to comprehend the situation. But before Holly's eyes, she saw a purple arm catching the bullet before it hit his head.
"No way! Can we get an instant replay of that!? Because I'm just not believing it!" Present Mic quietly shouted in shock. Or, as close to shouting as he could get without destroying everyone's eardrums.
"To move that fast and grab something that small with such a narrow margin for error... This Stand thing has to have crazy speed and precision." Todoroki said in shock.
"But is it just an extra ghost arm? Or is there the rest of the body with it?" Hagakure asked.
"Oh, I assure you, it's a full body." Sandra assured them.
Jotaro then started panting. "It's like there's someone behind me. It bound itself to me not long ago." He then gave the gun back to the cop while the purple arm dropped the bullet.
"So that was Jotaro's Stand. And you said my mother also had one, which was killing her? Are Jotaro and Grandfather's Stands killing them as well?!" He asked in concern.
"No, no. Don't worry about them. They are warriors who have natural fighting spirits and a talent for fighting. Control over their Stands came pretty naturally to them." The Celestial assured him.
"But then, why don't Tokoyami and his sister have these Stands?" Sero asked.
"Well, it's possible that, since they had Quirks, they weren't affected by the wavelengths DIO emitted that gave your other family members their Stands." Sandra theorized.
"Okay, so we can't SEE Stands, but can we fight them?" Midnight asked.
"No. Only other Stands can hurt a Stand. Ordinary people can't see or even touch them. Which is why they couldn't afford to take you or Raven on their journey to defeat DIO." The Empress explained.
"So, I'm guessing we're gonna see Jotaro's Stand in action?" Asui asked.
"I'd settle for seeing more than just it's arm." Jiro said.
"Very well, but I have to warn you. Koda, you in particular, are probably not going to like this." Sandra said.
"Does Jotaro do something bad to an animal?" Koda asked worriedly.
"Jotaro has always been kind to and deeply fascinated by animals. I couldn't possibly see him doing that." Tokoyami said.
(Oh, just wait until you hear about Iggy.) The Celestial thought, shaking her head. "Well, let's just say, what he did in this situation was fully warranted. I'm sorry if this makes you somewhat uncomfortable, but I'm showing you this so you know, this creature fully deserved what happened to it." She told them, before playing the clip.
A young girl had been in the middle of taking a shower (everything is censored, don't worry!), when she came face-to-face with an orangutan staring closely at her, taking far more interest in her than it should. The girl covered herself with a towel as the creature as it reached out towards her and moved its hand up from her rear end to right in front of her face, slowly moving to trap her in the corner of the shower.
"Okay, this thing is giving off creeper vibes that makes MINETA seem like a saint." Ashido said, deeply disturbed, Mineta too concerned for the girl to respond in indignation, or even factor in the girl was nude, even if it was censored.
"And it has her trapped! There's nowhere she can go!" Ojiro said worriedly.
"Get away from her, you damn, dirty ape!" Kaminari snapped, unintentionally making a movie reference.
"Picking on a naked girl ain't manly!" Kirishima snapped.
It then roared and lunged forward at her as she could only scream. Thankfully, before anything could happen, a voice rang out. "Hey!" Jotaro shouted, before smashing the ape upside the head with a heavy metal padlock.
"Jojo!" The girl cried out happily as the ape got up and tried to scurry away.
"Take your lock, you stinkin' ape!" Jotaro snapped, throwing the padlock at the simian and knocking it down again.
"Nice save, Jojo!" Sato cheered.
"And I must say, an impressive throw. Very stylish." Aoyama added.
"Still, orangutans are tough. That's not gonna take it down that easy." Koda said. He may not like seeing the animal get hurt, but after what it tried to do, he could understand why that had to be done.
However, it managed to thrust its arm forward and catch Jotaro's jacket lapel. "Seems that this ape... Isn't your run of the mill monkey. Could it be that he's the one?" He questioned. The ape pulled back and threw a round kick at Jotaro's head, but Star Platinum came out and slammed his knuckles into the creature's shin. But at this moment, the ceiling fan in the room somehow broke off from its place and spun like helicopter blades, before turning sideways and embedding itself in Jotaro's left shoulder.
"Did the monkey just throw a freaking round kick!?" Mineta asked.
"It seems that way. Luckily, Jotaro had it handled. And now we finally get to see his Stand in all its glory." Shoji said as they observed the apparition.
"And how glorious it is. Especially in that outfit." Mina said.
"Still a part of Tokoyami's brother. And you LITERALLY can't touch it." Asui reminded her again.
However, they were all caught off-guard when the fan blade stabbed Jotaro's shoulder. "What the hell?! How did that happen!?" Jiro questioned.
"I thought you said we could see Stands now! Why didn't we see what did that!?" Midnight asked.
"You ARE seeing the Stand. You'll just have to figure out how." Sandra said ominously.
The monkey laughed at this while Jotaro only seemed perplexed. "Wait... Who the hell ripped out that ceiling fan? It had to be him! So this ape's a Stand User, but where's the Stand!? I should be able to see the damn thing, but I can't! It doesn't make any sense!" He cursed while staring down the monkey. He then reached up to remove the fan from his shoulder, but the blade he reached for suddenly moved as if it were alive and smacked his hand away. "What the!? This steel propeller bent on its own, like it's alive!" He demanded, before the blade slapped him in the face, sending him flying through a doorway.
"Jojo!" The girl cried out to him as the monkey danced for joy.
"This damn monkey's starting to piss me off!" Bakugo growled.
"It's like of Beauty and the Beast as a horror movie!" Kaminari cried out.
"How the heck is this Stand doing that!? And more importantly, what is it?! We still can't see it!" Kirishima complained.
"And is the monkey the Stand user? It seemed really happy when that fan attacked Jotaro." Uraraka said.
"No way. Animals can't be Stand users... Can they?" Mineta asked.
"Yes, they can. There are several prominent animal Stand users: Iggy the dog, who will travel with Jotaro in the future, a falcon known as Pet Shop, who serves as DIO's 'guard dog', a pair of rats known as 'Bug Eaten', a turtle named Coco Jumbo and a sentient mass of plankton known as F.F." Sandra declared, leaving the class in shock at what they just heard.
"Hey! What's going on here?!" Jotaro questioned. The ape then narrowed its eyes and a window of a door in front of Jotaro broke, sending the glass flying towards the black-clad student, while the orangutan leapt for him as well. "Son of a bitch! There's no Stand in sight and somehow the window broke?!" He questioned. "Star Platinum!" He called forth his Stand, which flew forward and masterfully caught the glass between its fingers, now turning its fist into a deadly spiked weapon as it threw a punch at the ape, creating a huge dust explosion from the impact. However, what Star Platinum punched was not the orangutan, but the wall behind it, as it stepped back and phased through the wall, giving a cocky smirk to Jotaro in the process.
"It phased through the wall! How the heck does this Stand work!? It's like it just does whatever to make the monkey invincible!" Uraraka questioned.
"Wait... I think I've got it!" Midoriya cried out. "It's like you and Kaminari said: Beauty and the Beast: everything that happened was connected to the beast, his home and his servants and the Stand is manipulating the ship to do what the ape wants. What if..." He started, everyone slowly catching on.
"What's with this thing!? The ape just sank into the wall and disappeared!" He ranted, before turning to the girl. "Hey! You saw that, right?! Stay close to me! Something bad is going down!" He told her. (The ape vanished into the wall... But, that orangutan HAS to be the Stand User.) Jotaro thought as he held the girl close to him (but not in a creepy way!). (When I touched it earlier, I felt a Stand's energy coming from it! I have no doubt that HE'S the one we're looking for! It doesn't make any sense. Why can't I see the Stand like I always do?) He questioned, before thinking of the massive freighter they were on and gasping in shock. (Wait... What if I'm seeing it already?) He wondered.
Suddenly, the freighter began to shake violently. "What's happening!?" The girl asked.
"THE SHIP IS THE STAND!" They all cried out.
On the deck above, Jotaro's companions began to sink into the floor. "Whoa! What's going on!?" Avdol questioned in shock.
"This... Isn't good!" Joseph cried out.
"It's... Swallowing us!" Polnareff groaned as he tried to resist being pulled into the floor.
Joseph looked down at the ship absorbing them. "Is the freighter trying to..? Is it possible that the ship itself is..?" He questioned.
"That's my grandfather. Then I'm assuming the others are his and Jotaro's allies?" Tokoyami asked.
"And they're all Stand users as well?" Iida asked.
"Correct on both accounts. Joseph Joestar, Stand: Purple Hermit, thorny vines Joseph can release from his hand. While it's main purpose is for Spiritual surveillance, allowing Joseph to take pictures of his chosen target by karate chopping a camera or reading people's minds, it CAN be used in combat to wrap around people and choke them, or to let him swing around a city like Sero." The hostess explained as Joseph was shown using his powers on cameras and TV's.
"Muhammad Avdol. Stand: Magician's Red, it can create and control fire in a number of different ways, even creating vines of fire or ankhs that can split apart and come from different directions, even underground." The Celestial introduced the next Stand User as Avdol used vines of flame against Jotaro and a flaming ankh that broke into several pieces to defeat Polnareff.
"Noriaki Kakyoin. Stand: Hierophant Green, it can shoot Emerald-like stones as projectiles or unravel itself to wrap around things, create remote web traps or even enter inside other living beings." The Empress went on as the green melon-headed Stand fire green gems from a stream of liquid from its hands, unravel to tear apart a Stag Beetle Stand and enter the ears of a reaper-like Stand, as well as invade the body of a human nurse.
"And Jean-Pierre Polnareff. Stand: Silver Chariot, stand with great speed, precision and finesse, capable of even intercepting and cutting a Stand that moves at the speed of light after finding and moving into the path of its trajectory." Sandra explaining all of their Stands as the knight-like stand sliced a beam of light, splitting the face of the Stand in half.
"Wow. They all sound awesome." Hagakure said.
"Which makes this monkey and its Stand that much more insane to have been able to trap them all so easily." Jiro pointed out.
Back below deck, pipes shot out of the wall like snakes and went for Jotaro. "So the Stand is actually the freighter!" He realized, before the pipes wrapped around him and pulled both him and Star Platinum into the wall.
The monkey then emerged from the wall and laughed maniacally at the trapped teen. "Damn! You son of a-!" Jotaro cursed the beast.
Back on deck, Joseph was starting to piece together what his grandson had as well. "All of it! This ship itself and everything on it is a gigantic Stand!" He informed the others.
"This entire ship!? So there are Stands that Non-Stand Users like that girl and the crew members can see?!" Polnareff asked.
"The only possible explanation for that is that its immense energy is making it possible to be seen by the naked eye! But, all this must demand a tremendous amount of energy to operate a Stand as huge as this!" Avdol pointed out, before looking to Kakyoin.
"I guess that makes sense why an orangutan could do it. They have a lot more energy and power to use than a human does." Koda asked.
"I'm not sure if this Stand energy works the same way, but I suppose that's the best explanation." Todoroki said.
"Kakyoin! Send Hierophant Green to Jotaro! He can help get us out of this!" He suggested.
"I can't do that! It's got a firm hold on my Stand and I'm stuck!" Kakyoin explained.
"This is what it means to face death! We fell for this trap and now we're hopelessly ensnared with no way to escape!" Polnareff declared.
Kakyoin started to cough out blood. "The pressure keeps increasing! At this rate our bodies are going to be pulverized! We'll be-!" He groaned out.
"Damn! We were careless! We've got to-!" Joseph grunted out.
"It's over! There's no way for them to escape!" Present Mic said in a panic.
"No... They must have. I've seen Jotaro and Grandfather recently. I know they're still alive." Tokoyami said, although sounding like he was trying to convince himself of this.
"Jotaro is the only one with the monkey. He must have figured something out. Let's just see what it was." Aizawa said.
Down below, the orangutan emerged from the wall wearing a Captain's jacket and hat, smoking a pipe and holding up a dictionary. "The word that the orangutan was pointing to WAS: Strength! It means force, energy, power or aid! And, it is the eight card of the tarot deck!" A voice narrated as the definitions of the word were shown, before a tarot card appeared before a smoky, black background. "It suggests challenge, a strong will and hidden powers!" The voice narrated as the other side of the card was shown as the ape posed with its arms crossed, a Rubik's cube in its right hand.
"Oh, now this thing's just rubbing it in!" Bakugo growled, remembering the taunts and jabs thrown at him when he was kidnapped by the League of Villains.
"I didn't think it was possible for animals to have an ego like that." Asui said.
"Clearly, she hasn't had many conversations with principal Nezu." All Might whispered to Midnight, who nodded.
The ape began to fiddle around with the cube, while Star Platinum grabbed at the pipes restraining it. It managed to break off one of the pipes, but that caught the ape's attention and even more pipes restrained it. Jotaro growled at this as the ape laughed while holding the Rubik's cube right up to its face, suggesting it was focusing more on that than the opponent in front of it. (Damn ape! Thinks he's won already, huh?) Jotaro thought in frustration.
"This entire ship is my Stand and you've lost! You're totally outmatched and helpless! And there's nothing you can do! Jotaro needed no explanation, he knew exactly what the ape was saying!" The voice narrated the ape's thoughts as the beast completed the Rubik's cube, before crushing it in its hand. It then looked to the girl lustfully, steam coming from its nostrils and it licked its lips while ogling her while she tried to cover herself as much as she could.
Jotaro then held up his right hand as much as he could, a button held between his index and middle fingers, which he flung at the back of the monster's head, causing it to clatter to the floor. The ape growled and rubbed the back of its head in annoyance, picking up the button. "Over here, monkey! That button's not part of your Stand!" Jotaro declared as the creature held the trinket up to see it. Jotaro scoffed at this. "Are you angry? I guess I wounded your pride, since you thought you'd already beaten us. Oh, it's not hurt at all, is it? 'Cuz apes like you don't have any pride!" He taunted the beast.
"Smart. He's challenging the monkey's pride. It's shown itself to be quite arrogant and believes itself to be unbeatable, so a blow to its pride is bound to anger it." Midnight said.
"And anger causes us to make mistakes." Shoji realized.
"Indeed. Pride goeth before the fall, as they say!" Aoyama declared.
And the ape would fall for this taunt, roaring in anger and lunging towards Jotaro. "And that's exactly what makes you an ape and not a man!" Jotaro declared. "What's going to hurt now... Is your head!" Star Platinum now spoke for its User, pointing its own middle and index fingers of its left hand at the ape, before elongating them at high speeds, hitting the button the ape still held in its hand and knocking it loose, sending it flying like a bullet into the beast's forehead, causing it to shriek in pain as blood came out of its eyes, causing it to fall back and hold its head in pain.
Many a jaw connected with the floor as mouths were now agape from shock at what Jotaro did. "It's fingers extend!? That's insane! Kirishima said.
"And it turned that button into a bullet!" Kaminari added.
"Not quite. A bullet would've killed it. It most certainly hurt and definitely ruined the monkey's focus, but it's not dead yet." Yaoyorozu added.
"I wanna say that was brutal, but at this point, that thing deserves it. It's not a monkey, it's a monster." Sato said.
Jotaro then broke free of the pipes restraining him as Star Platinum phased back into him. "Good grief." He grumbled as he cornered the beast against some pipes. The ape, in desperation, ripped open its coat to show its belly. "I've heard that when frightened, animals show their stomachs to signal their submission to the enemy. So, you're asking me to forgive you?" Jotaro questioned while adjusting his hat, to which the orangutan nodded pleadingly. "I'm afraid your actions have already gone beyond the rules of the Jungle. So I don't think so." Jotaro said, narrowing his eyes in a death glare as Star Platinum revealed itself once more and pummeled the ape to death, sending it through another door.
"Yeah! Make that thing pay for what it did!" Mineta cheered.
"Immense strength, high precision and the ability to stretch its fingers with amazing speed and force. All that, combined with Jotaro's obviously clever mind, plus the fact average people can't see Stands and that's an insanely formidable combination." Midoriya noted.
"Yeah! DIO better watch his back, because Jotaro's coming to beat him down!" Ashido said.
"Maybe, but we don't know what DIO's Stand can do." Tokoyami pointed out.
"DIO's Stand is known as The World. And it's just as powerful and fast as Star Platinum. And it can stop time for five seconds." Sandra told them.
"Oh, come on! Why do so many people suddenly seem to have that power!?" Hagakure complained.
"And, in the clip I'm about to show you, Jotaro is currently the only one left. Iggy, Avdol and Kakyoin have all been killed in the fight against DIO and his minions, Polnareff has been severely injured and can no longer fight and Joseph took a knife to the throat. And DIO has drained huge amounts of blood from Joseph's body, enough for him to legally be considered dead, while drinking the blood of someone related to Jonathan has given DIO a massive power up." Their hostess explained.
Everyone was horrified at the news. "So many noble souls... Lost before their time." All Might said sadly.
"Grandfather..." Tokoyami choked out a sob at this. Yes, he knew his Grandfather was alive now, but to know he had been technically dead was horrifying to him.
"And that bastard's even stronger now? How the hell did Jotaro pull that off?" Bakugo asked.
"Watch and discover for yourself." The celestial declared.
DIO stopped time for one final instance, landing on the ground in front of a frozen Jotaro. He then chuckled to himself as he thought of how to vanquish his final foe of his most hated bloodline. "One second..." He declared, before leaping into the air and flying off, while Jotaro could only look through shocked eyes, wondering in what twisted way DIO would finish him. "Two seconds... Three seconds..." DIO's voice still rang out even as he was nowhere to be seen.
"What the hell? Why did he run? Jotaro is just frozen there, he's the perfect target." Uraraka asked.
"Two reasons. First, because DIO is a slave to his ego and he has to find the ultimate over-the-top way to finish Jotaro..." Sandra began, to which everyone rolled their eyes. "And two, Star Platinum is still able to move for up to two seconds." She dropped the bomb on them.
"Why didn't you say that first!? That's insane!" Sero said in astonishment.
"Jotaro couldn't figure out why Dio had suddenly vanished amidst the standstill..." The voice from before narrated once again.
"Four seconds..." DIO announced yet again.
"But he pushed the thoughts out of his mind... No matter what sinister plot DIO was hatching, no matter what unholy attack he attempted to unleash, Jotaro had only TWO SECONDS to respond! Only two seconds to drive Star Platinum's fist into DIO, once and for all!" The voice declared as Jotaro braced himself.
(I've had just about enough of this neon vampire! The next time I see that goddamn face of his, I'm gonna freakin' lose it and beat him into the ground!) Jotaro thought while seething in rage.
"Six seconds..." DIO's voice continued to ring out.
(That's right, DIO! Come and get it!) Jotaro challenged DIO in his mind.
"Seven seconds!" DIO declared, his voice sounding closer as a large shadow suddenly loomed over Jotaro. The teen's eyes widened in shock as he saw DIO's completely over-the-top plan to finish him. "I'm going to roll all over you!" DIO roared as he divebombed on Jotaro... WITH A FREAKING STEAMROLLER!
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!" The class cried out in unison.
"He actually flew around the city looking for a steamroller and carried the whole thing back!? What is this man's thought process?!" Koda asked.
"And he'd have to know that he'd be able to grab it and get back before his time stop wore off. How could he be that sure of himself?" Todoroki asked.
"He probably wasn't, honestly. He was on kind of a high after drinking Joseph's blood. He literally jabbed a finger into his own brain and scratched damn near half his face off." Sandra told them.
"It's official. He's insane." Asui said.
Star Platinum appeared and held back the steamroller with its left forearm, using all its might to keep the vehicle from crushing its User. Jotaro could only growl as Star Platinum punched back the construction vehicle with every once of strength it could muster while both DIO AND The World hammered down on the steamroller with their elbows. "EIGHT SECONDS! I'LL OBLITERATE YOU!" DIO shouted in triumph as he wound back and delivered the strongest punch he could with the assistance of the world. Star Platinum responded with its own strongest punch, but it simply couldn't overpower the weight of the steamroller and the extra force the vampire and his Stand put into the last strike, the vehicle seeming to crush Jotaro.
"No... It can't be..." Tokoyami said in shock and disbelief, struggling/refusing to process what he had just witnessed.
"Jotaro couldn't have lost. There's no way..." Dark Shadow said in a similar state of shock to its User.
"Who's gonna stop DIO now? None of us would be able to do anything against The World and he'd probably take us all out with that time stop." Mineta said worriedly.
"There HAS to be more to this. There just HAS to." Shoji said.
DIO now stood atop the battered vehicle stoically. "Nine seconds... I did it. It's over..." He said as blood leaked out from under the steamroller. "The World has defeated Star Platinum. My Stand is more powerful than his. I am immortal. I am everlasting!" DIO declared, before laughing triumphantly. "Stand Power!" He shouted as The World loomed behind him, laughing a bit more before continuing his monologue. "Now there is incontrovertible proof that no one on this miserable planet is stronger than me! You loathsome humans! I shall rule over your pathetic species until the end of time! Now bow before my wisdom and power!" He continued to boast. "Ten seconds! Would you look at that?! I can stop time for TEN SECONDS!" He basked in his own glory.
"Alright! Now that I've defeated Jotaro, I should inspect his lifeless body and drink his blood! That is if there's any blood left to savor!" He declared, before attempting to get down from the steamroller. However, he was shocked to find his body wouldn't move. Despite all his efforts, his own body was frozen in time. "What's happening? My body's slowing down..." He realized, attempting to move, but nothing would happen. (No... It's not that I'm slowing down. For some reason, I can't move at all! I'm frozen!) He figured out in his mind.
"Wait, what?" Everyone asked.
"DIO can't move? Is... Is he somehow trapped in his Stand's power?" Kaminari asked.
"It can't be. Or else we could not be moving now. The world itself would have ended." Aoyama denied the idea.
"Wait. You said The World is really similar to Star Platinum... Which means the opposite is true, too..." Midnight said.
"You don't think..." Everyone asked at once.
"Hey DIO!" Jotaro declared, revealing himself to be behind the vampire. "It's been eleven seconds. I guess that's your Stand's limit, huh?" He questioned.
(What?!) DIO could only question in his mind.
"Yeah, Jotaro!" Everyone cheered.
"So that means Jotaro can stop time, too. That's incredible!" Midoriya cheered.
"Yeah. And I'm WAY happier seeing someone like Jotaro have that power instead of someone like DIO or Esdeath." Uraraka agreed, looking to Todoroki quickly. "No offense, Todoroki." She said quickly.
"Frankly, I'm too relieved to feel mad right now." The half-and-half boy admitted.
"I stopped time at nine seconds. And it's a good thing I did, huh? It gave me a chance to escape." He explained, before scoffing. "Good grief, you idiot..." He said, before pointing to him. "Here's the thing! Since you're frozen like that, destroying you will only take a second!" He declared.
DIO seethed at this. "JOTARO!" He roared. "This is madness! You can stop time, too!? Curse you! This whole thing was a ruse in order to waste my nine seconds, wasn't it, you bastard?!" He realized.
"How does it feel, DIO? Tell me." Jotaro ordered, only for DIO to hiss in anger. "How's it feel, having your archenemy tower behind you while you stand frozen and helpless? I suppose its alot like holding your breath underwater, only someone's out to get you and your air is running out as you desperately swim for your life." He said, tightly gripping DIO's shoulder. "Then, after finally reaching the surface and taking a breath, you get pulled right back in. Sound familiar?" He questioned.
"Oh, my god! Finally, someone put it into words!" Kirishima cried out.
"I know, right!? That's exactly how it felt whenever the League of Villains showed up!" Mina agreed.
"But after everything you've done, DIO, you're not gonna get any sympathy from me." He told the vampire as Star Platinum kicked him in the knees, practically breaking off the legs below them as they bent in the wrong direction. DIO groaned in pain at this. "Time is about to start moving again." Jotaro said as time restarted and DIO went spinning through the air and skidding across the ground.
blood gushed from the broken leg as DIO panted in exhaustion and pain. Jotaro stepped down and stood in front of DIO again. "Compassion is something you're never gonna get from me! I haven't got any kindness for your sorry, undead ass. Though, I gotta admit, you look pretty pathetic, writhing on the ground in agony. As much as I want to, killing you like this would leave a pretty bad taste in my mouth." The member of the Joestar lineage admitted, before looking to DIO's legs as blood sprayed from them as they tried to piece themselves back together.
"Screw that! Finish him off NOW!" Bakugo shouted.
"While that is dishonorable and borderline villainous behavior, I do have to agree, giving DIO any form of a chance is a terrible mistake." Iida agreed.
"Agreed. Giving him a chance is giving him an opportunity to pull an underhanded tactic that could allow him to escape or even win." Yaoyorozu added.
"I wonder how long it'll take for your to heal? Three seconds? Four, maybe? The very moment your legs are healed, Star Platinum's heading your way to demolish you!" Jotaro declared, to which DIO gasped in fear. "If this were the Wild West, the hero would say... It's high noon. Now get off the ground and draw your piece, DIO. You're getting one shot." Jotaro told him.
DIO merely continued to seethe from his prone position. (This insignificant whelp... How dare he mock me! Though, I shouldn't be surprised. Of course, you would use this opportunity to make such human declaration!) He thought in his mind, even laughing at Jotaro's challenge as his legs started to fix themselves. "You think like a true mortal, cursed with a fleeting life destined for obscurity! 'A bad taste in your mouth' you say? What, are you afraid you'd regret killing me? That reasoning is as pathetic as your species! Your foolish honor will be your demise!" DIO declared as he started to stand.
"That is where you and I differ. My vision is clear and my mind is focused on a single goal! I want to dominate! Nothing more, nothing less! It's the only thing that will bring me fulfillment! But how I go about doing that, doesn't matter in the slightest!" DIO monologued, twisting his leg as it sprayed blood one final time before it was fixed, sending the sanguine liquid into Jotaro's eyes.
"Eww!" All the girls cried out at once.
"What did he think a freak like DIO was gonna do! He's a worm and just used dirt to his advantage!" Jiro said.
"Now he's gonna get a disease probably!" Hagakure shrieked.
"Wait... DIO's a vampire and his blood just got in Jotaro's system. Does that mean Jotaro could become a vampire?" Midoriya asked.
"I think that's the least of his worries right now, young listener!" Present Mic said in concern.
Jotaro groaned in pain and closed his eyes. "How about a little blood in your eyes!?" DIO questioned, summoning The World. "I win! DIE!" He ordered, The World throwing one final round kick for Jotaro's head.
Meanwhile, Jotaro reared back, preparing to throw the most powerful haymaker he could, Star Platinum appearing alongside him. "ORA!" They declared together as the Stand threw the punch, connecting with The World's shin. For a moment, it was a perfect standstill, everything appearing frozen in time again as neither Stand or User moved. After a moment, Star Platinum's fist cracked and split open, causing Jotaro's eyes to narrow as DIO smirked.
"Oh, no! Star Platinum lost!" Koda said in fear.
"No. It's over. The World is finished." Aizawa declared.
But then, the armor on The World's knee cracked, much to DIO's shock. A pulse from the impact then rang out as massive cracks shot up the entirety of The World's left side, the damage reflecting onto DIO as well as the vampire could only scream. "WHAT THE HELL?! IT'S IMPOSSIBLE! I AM THE IMMORTAL DIO!" The vampire screamed as his body began to split apart. "I AM DIO!" He cried out one final time, before his left arm and leg were blown off his body and his left side split open, leaking out blue and white fire.
"YES!" Everyone cheered all together, hugging and celebrating. Even Sandra had the ceiling light up with shooting stars and other beautiful space-related phenomena.
"Yeah! Take that, DIO! Hell's been waiting one hundred years too long for you!" Sato cheered.
"I never thought I'd WANT to see someone explode before. But that was one of the best things I've seen in my life." Asui admitted.
Jotaro then stood tall. "When they sun comes up, you'll be nothing but dust. You only made one mistake. The one that got you killed. DIO, this whole thing might've ended differently, but... You went and pissed me off. Was it worth it?" Jotaro declared.
"Oh, man! That line was so epic! So manly!" Kirishima cheered.
"My hero. Someone needs to make hero cards of him." Bakugo said.
"I'm inclined to agree, Young Bakugo. DIO was a true threat, easily capable of taking over the world as he declared to be his intentions. Young Jotaro may have saved us all." All Might agreed.
"And thus, Jotaro defeated DIO once and for all, but used DIO's body to perform a transfusion to put blood back into Joseph to save him." Sandra explained.
"I see. So that's how grandfather survived." Tokoyami said, before lowering his head. "I'm sorry, Jotaro. Grandfather. I've held a grudge against them for leaving when mother was ill, but they are the very reason she's still here." He said.
"Yeah. You guys are just as much of heroes as Raven. We'll be lucky to be that good." Dark Shadow agreed.
"Well, now that you know the whole story, you can repair your relationship with them." Midoriya said supportively.
"I suppose you're right." The bird-headed boy agreed. "Sandra, would you please-?" He began.
"Already on it." The hostess agreed, summoning Jotaro to the seen.
The Stardust Crusader gasped in surprise as he was brought into the arena. "What is this? An enemy Stand?" He demanded, Star Platinum emerging as he looked around, before seeing his brother and his class. "Fumikage. What's going on here?" He asked.
"Jotaro. This woman is the Empress of the universe. And she's been showing us the family members of my classmates." He explained. "And we just saw your exploits. Star Platinum, it's capabilities and your final fight with DIO." Tokoyami explained.
Jotaro was shocked at this. "Dammit. Gramps and I wanted to keep you, mom and Raven out of all this Stand business. Looks like that didn't work." He explained.
Tokoyami then embraced his brother, Dark Shadow even coming out and enjoying the hug. "I'm sorry. I was so angry at you both for leaving mother in her time of need, but you both did exactly what she needed and you saved her where nothing else could." He apologized.
"Yeah. You two are the best. We'll never doubt you again!" Dark Shadow explained.
Jotaro was a bit surprised at this, but hugged his brother, even using Star Platinum to pat Dark Shadow on the back. "I never blamed you. It was pretty understandable. We left without a word when Mom was on her death bed. What else could you have thought." He assured his brother. "But I've heard everything you and you're friends have been doing in your school. You're well on your way to becoming a hero. You'll put mine and Gramps' exploits to shame." He said to his sibling, before looking up at the others. "You all will." He told them.
"You could become quite the hero as well, Young Jotaro. I'm sure if you demonstrated your abilities, you'd be able to join the third years in UA. You might even turn the Big Three into the Big Four!" All Might offered.
Jotaro chuckled at this. "Good grief." He said. "I appreciate that compliment and the offer, but the hero business isn't for me. I prefer the peaceful life. I've been thinking of looking into Marine Biology. Still, I'll be rooting for you all. And if things get TOO crazy, I suppose I'd be willing to step in." He said.
And with that, the Tokoyami siblings separated and Jotaro was returned from whence he came. "So now, it's Mineta's turn." Sandra declared.
Despite most of the class generally being antagonistic towards the tiny boy in their class, they sighed in relief. "Oh, thank goodness. After all the crazy things we've seen, we could use something underwhelming." Mina said.
"Hey! My family is awesome!" Mineta insisted.
"Indeed. One should never underestimate someone by their appearance. And none perfectly encapsulate this better than Mineta's grandfather, Happosai." Sandra declared as the screen came to life once more.
A/N: Finally! I made a chapter short enough to actually be ONE chapter!
Thanks to Monster King for the idea of Happosai as Mineta's family member. I was totally blanking on ideas for Grape Juice. If you have any suggestions for family members for Class 1-A or the present teachers, let me know in the reviews.
