Paying Respects to the Father of Jojos
Joseph is looking over a little check list to make sure everything is alright and in order to, he never done check lists before and didn't have the reason to do one for himself, but today is the perfect day because the Joestar Brothers are going to somewhere special.
"Now everything is ready." Joseph grinned.
"Hey Joseph, you in here?" Josuke asked, walking into the room.
"Aw, you're about to say, "Are you finish getting ready on your end?" like that." Joseph performed his famous Your Next Line trick.
"Are you finish getting ready on your end?" Josuke asked, and then realizes that he just fell into his older brother's trick.
"Looks like you are ready if you're going to do something like that on me." Josuke chuckled.
"Sorry, just wanted to do at least one last little joke before we get moving. To think it's been months since we last went to that place, but I feel like now is the perfect time to go there." Joseph said.
"You're talking like we haven't been to that place in decades." Josuke joked a little bit.
"Are the others ready?" Joseph asked.
"Yep, just waiting outside for us. The girls are going to be in for a surprise to see what we have in store for them." Josuke answered.
"Good, everyone except for Pinkie will be in the dark of this trip." Joseph nodded.
"Seriously, how does she keep knowing these things?" Josuke asked, feeling like that girl has a crazy cartoon or something like that.
Oh Josuke, if only you knew.
(Later, Airplane)
Rarity is enjoying herself with what feels like a lifetime of relaxation as she is sitting on a massaging chair inside the big and fast jet, she never thought it was possible to feel this relax until now.
"How are you feeling, Rarity?" Jonathan asked.
"It's lovely, Jonathan. I can't believe you had such an amazing thing and never told me." Rarity answered.
"Well, if I have told you then you wouldn't want to leave the chair and never go back to being a fashion designer." Jonathan pointed out.
"Hmm, I see your point." Rarity started to understand that since she really loves fashion and designing the fashion herself.
"Heads up!" Rainbow Dash called out and caught the football that Josuke just threw.
"Nice catch!" Josuke said, giving her a thumbs up.
"Don't you think it's safer to play your ball games AFTER we land?" Applejack pointed out, speaking out for safety reasons.
"Just trying to not be bored during this long flight." Rainbow Dash shrugged.
"I can't believe we're actually going to the ancient Hamon temple where our adopted sons trained there! Do you think the monks and trainees will mind us being there?" Celestia asked her little sister.
"The boys already made the call to their Grand Master to let us come, so I'm sure they won't mind." Luna said.
"Although, I have been wondering if there were any martial art styles that makes the fighter shines like the moonlight." Luna said, being curious.
"We're not really sure ourselves, you'll have to ask Tonpetty for that." Giorno said.
"I still can't believe the Hamon Clan actually has their own private jet." Fluttershy looked out the window, seeing the clouds and a few birds flying lower.
The outside view shows the jet to be colored orange and yellow as the color theme of Hamon with the speed they be anywhere fast.
"The Clan knew with time passing on, they figured there wouldn't be much of them left should the numbers go down. So, they send out some of their own to find people who have potential to be Hamon Users and bring them at the temple for training and once they're done with the training, they can go off on their own to crave their own path." Giorno explained.
"They would also do some jobs outside of the temple and send some of the money they earned back to keep themselves on their feet." Jonathan added.
"Guess even old folks can catch up with time." Rainbow Dash commented.
"Thanks again for letting me come along, you guys. I always wanted to see what Africa is like." Flash said, sitting on his own seat.
"You're welcome, thought you could see more of our little adventures." Johnny nodded.
"So, is there anything about the temple we should know about? Like what are the rules, do we have to dress up as them, and do we need to be aware of the food they eat?" Twilight asked a few curious questions.
"I could go over a few rules, but I'll let Tonpetty fill you in on that one. We used to dress up like most of the monks, but only when we used to be trainees. And the food is fine, they even have some unique recipes you guys are going to like." Joseph answered those questions.
"Except for that one spicy food you do NOT want to try." Johnny mentioned.
"Shit, I remember trying that. I kept begging for someone to kill me." Jotaro groaned, pulled the front of his hat over his eyes.
"Okay, now I definitely wanna know about that." Sunset became curious about that.
"No, you don't." Jotaro glared.
"Now, now, there's nothing wrong with sharing a few embarrassing things to your girlfriend and your mother." Luna said with a teasing grin.
"I am not saying anything." Jotaro refused to talk.
"I'll tell them!" Joseph announced.
"It all started with a—" But Joseph's words were cut off when Star Platinum punch the second oldest Joestar brother in the face knocking him unconscious.
"Jotaro Joestar! What have we said about using your Stand to punch your siblings?" Luna scolded.
"Don't care, I do NOT want to be reminded of that incident again." Jotaro argued.
"I do hope this won't be a long flight." Rarity worried that the air in here is starting to feel tense.
"Just keep yourself distracted and the flight will be over before you know it." Applejack advised.
"Hey Applejack, ever tried to see how long you can keep an apple from touching the ground like a hacky sag?" Johnny tossed an apple to Applejack who caught it with her foot.
"I played a few hacky sag games, and I'm pretty damn good at them." Applejack bragged a little.
Jonahtan smile to see that everyone is enjoying themselves on the flight keeping themselves busy with things, he looks out the window to see the sky and the ground below them while having a certain thing coming into his mind about the true reason why they are going to the Hamon temple and on this day too.
Jonathan hopes that everyone will see what the brothers wanted to show them.
(One Hour Later)
The plane landed in a private landing area as the family came down from the plane and their bags are brought out by the attendances, including the seven luggage that all belonged to Rarity.
"Perfect, everything is in place." Rarity smiled.
"Did you really have to bring that many?" Jotaro asked.
"Yeah, we're only going to be staying here for the weekend." Sunset reminded her of how long they are going to be at the Hamon Clan temple.
"Exactly, darlings. I don't want to miss the opportunity to see the kind of old and ancient things the temple has to offer. Perhaps I can even make a new style inspired by their clothing." Rarity explained her fashion excitement.
"Well, then perhaps you wouldn't mind me being the first to try them out when you do make them." Tonpetty walked up to them with two young men behind them.
"Master Tonpetty, it's great to see you again!" Jonathan greeted.
"I am glad to see you as well, your brothers and family have grown much stronger than the last time I saw you all. And I can sense that your Stands have grown stronger as well." Tonpetty smiled.
"It is an honor to finally meet you in person, Master Tonpetty. Me and Luna are grateful for taking care of our sons and the others during their time in training." Celestia greeted as she and Luna bow to him.
"I'm the one who should be grateful for looking after Jonathan and Joseph, Zeppeli was right to leave them in your hands." Tonpetty smiled.
"Dire and Straizo, it's great to see you guys again." Josuke greeted the other two men.
"I am happy to see you boys again, and we got word about your victory over the Dark Brothers." Dire smiled.
Dire is a very muscular mature man who has chiseled features and has light blonde and white hair and an oversized flattop, and light blue eyes. He wears light blue and gray leather armor over cotton clothes.
"Hello everyone, my name is Straizo. Please behave during you stay here and we may not have any trouble with you." Straizo introduced himself with a calm, threating aura around him.
Straizo is a male of average height and athletic build with long, straight black hair and black eyes. He wears a thick tunic complete with wristbands, knee pads, and a large cloak. He also wears a dark red scarf around his neck.
"Whoa, he reminds me of how my mom when she gets angry." Pinkie said.
"Except your mom doesn't pull out the smile on the outside." Applejack remembered how Pinkie's mom is like.
"We welcome you to the Hamon Temple, we hope during your stay that you would learn some of our culture and ways of Hamon should any of you be interested in learning." Tonpetty said.
"Actually, Master Tonpetty, I've been curious about how exactly your predecessors were able to first discover Hamon. Maybe look at your library?" Twilight said with curiosity on her face.
"Oh, this one is eager for learning." Dire commented.
"That's Twilight Sparkle, never wants to stop hitting the books even on the weekend." Sunset chuckled.
Fluttershy gently brought out the big pet cage from the luggage, opening it up and both dogs of the group came out stretching their legs and breathing in that fresh nature air around them.
"Wow, so this is where you trained? This place looks great, like we come to a place where our wlf ancestors came from." Spike commented as he looks around.
"(Sure, it's great and all, but it can also be pretty boring and there isn't any fun stuff to do except for peeing in some trees. And sometimes in their rooms.)" Iggy smirked, remembering that last part.
"Are there any dogs around?" Spike asked.
"(Just me and a few others, though there is this one little dog that keeps on following me for some reason.)" Iggy mentioned.
"Follow us to the rooms you'll be staying in and be sure that you have all of your belongings." Dire gestured and the group started walking.
Jonathan walks up to Tonpetty and leans to him a little.
"Master Tonpetty, is the path still clear?" Jonathan asked.
"Yes, it is as and always will be." Tonpetty smiled.
"I'm sure he would be grateful to meet so many of your friends and family, and I see you brought someone with potential." Tonpetty looked over to Flash.
"Yes, I have notice that Flash Sentry has that sunny flare aura around him almost like a small sun." Jonathan commented.
The first Jojo brother can remember the times when Flash was there for him and the others in their previous battles and other times as a great friend, so he thought about bringing him here to help him defend from any major threats like helping him train him Hamon or at least learn how to fight to defend himself.
"But tell me, Jonathan. Do you think that boy will be able to handle the training within the short time of your stay?" Tonpetty asked.
"I believe he can do it." Jonathan smiled.
Straizo looks at the group a little without that being notice by the others as he looks at each other the Rainbooms, he can tell that these girls are something because of their magic powers and how well they work together against such dangerous threats like the Dark Brothers.
There are only two of the Dark Brothers left and he has no doubt that they will be defeated though he can also tell that the last two are very dangerous and probably a bit more powerful than the other brothers, so he will need to see what they are capable of.
"(If these girls are powerful with the Joestar Brothers, then I will need to move up my plan sooner than expected.)" Straizo thought knew he has to prepare himself.
(Guest Bedroom)
"Wow, the view up here is great!" Applejack complimented while standing on the balcony.
"Yeah, this kind of thing never gets old no matter how many times I see this." Johnny said, leaning his shoulder onto hers.
"Sleeping on the floor, not exactly the kind of hospitality I was expecting." Rarity said as she sits on her futon.
"How so? We still have the mattress." Fluttershy gestured at the mattress she is sitting on.
"Maybe so, but it's still not a proper bed and I've been telling the monks that every single time it bothers me, but they say "No, it's fine, Joseph. Just go along with it." Like I could go along with this. I mean, would it kill them to put in the frames that makes the bed?" Joseph complained.
"You know, this actually remains me a little of Japan's culture that most houses involve sleeping on the floor and it's rather comfy in a way." Twilight mentioned.
"They also have their own tea ceremony when making their own tea, I would like to try that someday." Sunset said.
"I prefer instant coffee." Joseph raised a finger up.
"Quit your complaining, we're here for the main reason. Now let's go." Jotaro said as he walks out of the room.
"Already? But we haven't unpacked." Pinkie pointed at her luggage, and it suddenly pops open letting out a bunch of her clothes and party stuff.
"This is something that can't wait any longer." Jotaro said.
"Is something going on with Jotaro? I feel like there is something personal going on right now." Sunset asked the other Joestar Brothers.
"You could say it's a personal thing, it will make sense once we get there." Josuke stood up and followed Jotaro.
The Rainbooms, Flash, Celestia and Luna, and Spike are confused about what the Joestar Brothers are going to and decided to follow them to see this for themselves.
The group follow the Joestar Brothers out of the large temple home and going up the long flak of stairs, the surrounding was a good sight for the scenery as some of the girls have started taking some pictures of these wonderful things until they reach the top where a large stone tablet is set in the ground with words on it.
"Here we are." Giorno said.
"Where are we?" Fluttershy asked.
"This here is the grave of Geroge Joestar, our father." Jonathan revealed shocking everyone.
"We thought about coming here for Father's Day. To let him know about how we've been doing and all that." Joseph mentioned.
"I'm sure you father saw everything from Heaven, and he is very proud of the things you boys have done along with the girls." Celestia smiled as she walked up to the grave.
"Indeed, he would along with Zeppeli." Dire said along with Tonpetty.
"Geroge was a very good friend of mine, we along with Zeppeli trained together to push ourselves through the limits and we shared a strong bond of brotherhood. I'll never forget the strength he carried even when he fell in battle taking down the Dark Brother's father." Dire explained, remembering the times he had with Geroge and Zeppeli in their training days.
"We were also thinking about bringing you guys here too, to greet him and all that sappy stuff." Jotaro said.
"Aw, it's a good thing I prepared this special Happy Father's Day card for the dead father before getting on the plane." Pinkie pulled out the giant man-size card from her hair and some flowers.
"Nice! You got dad's favorite flowers!" Joseph smirked.
"I still don't know how she even knows about that." Josuke shrugged.
Jonathan kneels in front of the tombstone with Rarity sitting next to him, they look at each other for a moment and back at the tombstone feeling that the spirit of Geroge Joestar is with them right now just to enjoy this very moment with everyone.
KO a new chapter is done and hope you all enjoy it!
I know it's a day late, but Happy Father's Day! Thought I make this a good chapter about the father of the Joestar Brothers being visited by the sons and their friends, the two moms, and the girlfriends. May Geroge Joestar find peace knowing that his sons are doing okay and will stop the remaining Dark Brothers too.
KO comment, favorite, and follow through of how this story will go!
