A True Warrior; Part2
What happened before:
"It is no surprise." Kars reassured himself. "Such a pity Wamuu was struck with Hamon in the middle of his Divine Sandstorm. His spirit and pride build up over thousands of years has crumbled. The quiet intensity he gained from countless battles has vanished. He must be in shock. But it matters not! Hurry and set up the next weapons!" Kars declared x-ing his arms giving a light signal.
"Lord Kars gave his signal. We must obey his command." Two soldiers hurried down, one sitting on the taller soldier's shoulders. The weapons for the second lap are.... IRON-BALL CROSSBOWS! Each was equipped with two shots! Each warrior must choose.....a large or a small bow!
You shook your head grimly:"Good grief...."
Part2
"Now two weapons....one large one small?" Joseph mumbled confused furrowing his eyebrows.
"Lisa Lisa, Y/N, allow me to make a conjecture." Kars spoke up sitting down crossing his legs smirking. "You must be thinking: Wamuu is no state to fight.....Why is Kars laying out crossbows with such confidence? How strange, you are thinking. Here is why: Wamuu is a true fighter. Top athletes have been known to make a kind of mental adjustment known as switching win back. When the pressure rises, they can hide away shock, mistakes and fear and like a flipping switch are able to summon forth a fighting spirit. In particularly desperate situations, a ritual is needed to flip tat switch." Kars licked his lips looking up to you.
"So Wamuu is going to perform a ritual to awaken his true power to defeat Joseph. " You sated coldly. "Please go on."
"Of course, Wamuu's switch was....!" Kars chuckled as suddenly Wamuu clenched his fist bringing them close to his face as your eyes widened in surprise. "That was unexpected."
"What the.....What is he doing?" Joseph screamed looking back.
"Lord Wamuu! His eyes! He gouged them out!!!!" The crowd exclaimed in disbelief, clearly terrified at the mere thought of plucking one's eyes out.
"I was a fool to rely solely on my eyes simply because I could see. He exploited my weakness." He revealed his horn posing. "Now with this horn, I shall see by wind, not light!" He back flipped himself back on his chariot holding the reins while everyone watched in anticipation.
"So he flipped hi mental switch by gouging his eyes out...what a rather bizarre way to perform a ritual." You muttered. "But since he is able to regenerate it should not be a serious injury or a hindrance for future missions."
"That is true." Kars agreed to your statement. "Wamuu had rid himself of all psychological weakness. Now he can sense the wind. He can see more now than ever."
"So what if you poked your eyes out! You think you can psych me out with that? We lost Caesar as a fighter! Your eyes are nothing compared to that!" Joseph declared grimly focusing back at the track.
"Which crossbow will you take?" The vampire asked the brunette tiredly.
"Do you really have to ask? Isn't it obvious?" The Joestar grinned snatching his weapon of choice. "I am taking the giant one! Its power cannot be beat!" then the vampires started to sicker evilly.
"It does have power." The fat and smaller one confirmed.
"Yeah, lots of power." The taller one replied as Wamuu's chariot dashed past them taking the small crossbow.
Your golden eyes dilated. "Joseph seems to have trouble with his weapon."
"No! I cannot pull it! It is so tough! How am I supposed to draw this thing?" Joseph gritted frustrated while the two vampires laughed at his misery.
"You got greedy! You need a mechanical device to draw even a standard crossbow. You just for your deserts, you greedy fool!" The exclaimed hollering.
"You have a bad taste, choosing minions like these." You criticized Kars openly critizising him. "I mean are you for real? They are rude, unsightly and their manners are no-existent, they make me want to throw up."
"When you join us you have my permission to get rid of them do you take me p on my offer?" Kars offered you but you just rolled your eyes annoyed at this whole situation, why would they not let me take care of all of them it would be way easier.
"Please Kars, your company for all eternity sounds even worse, truly I have my reasons for not joining, good reasons to be exact; one of them is.... you." You taunted the Pillar man he only scoffed in response focusing back observing the battle.
"I will use the first bullet to grasp the wind." Wamuu announced aiming and shooting barely missing the brunette who had to jump on one of the horses to save himself. "I have grasped the distance between us. The next shot will strike you dead!"
"Damn it! How am I going to use this thing?" Joseph muttered deep in thought his mind racing since he abandoned his chariot.
"Lord Wamuu, blow him to smithereens! Let us feed on whatever remains!" the crowd roared.
"Disgusting." You mumbled under your breath while Lisa Lisa silently agrees as Joseph continued to race trying to pull the string to no avail.
Just as I thought, he thought hiding behind the fire. The flames are stirring up hot air. He cannot sense my location! Now is my chance.
"Do not underestimate Wamuu...."Kars spoke up chuckling as you gritted your teeth as you saw him aiming at the barrier separating the crowd from the track.
"Hey what is Lord Wamuu doing? He turned his back towards the flames! He is looking this way!!" The vampires shouted in fear as he shot his iron-ball along the barrier.
"Jojo is current location is exactly one hundred eighty degrees from Wamuu, directly near the flame! He is giving away his position!" Kars explained smugly.
"He is blanking his shot like playing pool!" Lisa Lisa realized, as you nodded.
Speedwagon still owes me a round. You smiled darkly.
"Wha-!" Joseph screamed as the iron ball hit him in the side full force. He hit him from behind! He coughed out blood as he fell from his black horse groaning in pain, not standing up while the crowd cheered, you gripped the stone harshly breaking it biting your lip.
"I was observing the terrain as we circled trying to find an angle I could use against you!" Wamuu exclaimed.
Shakily, Joseph reached to his side. Cannot breath!!!
"It ricocheted off him so it did not splitter his skin." You mumbled calculating the situation and possible injuries. "But he is spitting out blood, so concluding he has organ damage." Your eyes flashed.
"Finish him Wamuu!" Kars shouted. "That Jojo is a clever one. Be on your guard!" He stood up.
"Has he set a trap?" Wamuu inquired as he neared the Joestar lying on the cold ground.
The brow string.....cocked itself when I fell to the ground. I cannot let him find out! Joseph thought putting his iron-ball in his crossbow. And I cannot take him out from here. Closer! Just a little closer.....NOW!!!!! Joseph sat up taking his crossbow as Wamuu raised his arms.
But Joseph missed! Coughing up blood while the crowd burst out laughing.
"Looks like your shot went off course." Kars smirked pumping his fist." I commend you for your fighting until the bitter end."
"Here I come Jojo!" Wamuu announced his chariot has stopped but Joseph backed off.
"Stay away! Get away from me! Get away! Get away from me!!!" Joseph screamed throwing with rubble. "Please someone help! Y/N!!!" He pleaded, you gritted your teeth ready to jump down to save your godson but Kars stopped you licking his lips.
"You cannot go down there. Those were the conditions."
"He is throwing rocks! What a pathetic loser! Go down like a man, little worm!" The crowd yelled insulting the brunette as the small rocks kept continuing hitting Wamuu, irking him greatly as you suddenly chuckled shocking Kars and Lisa Lisa. Joseph was smirking confidently pointing at Wamuu smugly.
"Your next line will be: Do not disgrace our duel Jojo!" He declared.
"Do not disgrace out duel Jojo!" Shocked Wamuu stopped as the small rocks continue hitting him.
"Here! SOME MORE!!" Joseph shouted smirking. "A bat could dodge these rocks perfectly....But what about you Wamuu?"
Suddenly the iron-ball pierced thought Wamuu's torso creating a large hole shocking everyone as you crossed your arms proudly.
"The iron-ball came from behind!" The crowd exclaimed in horror.
"Bastard!" Wamuu gritted out.
"Looks like I did it again." Joseph said holding his side. "Wamuu I used your own shot against you!!"
A hush fell over the area. The crowd became silent, not a single sound could be hears; not even a gasp. The bullet left a gaping hole in Wamuu's chest like a sneering grin of a Jack-o'-Lanters. The iron-ball was charged with a minuscule amount of Hamon. His wound was beginning to fest and the Hamon worsened his arm's wounds resorting to the Divine Sandstorm would e impossible. Wamuu fell from his chariot.
"I must steady my Hamon breathing." Joseph breathed out, looking through Wamuu's scheme. "So you faked that fall to kick me? I see through that final attack! REBUFF OVERDRIVE!!!" He blocked the incoming attack with his elbows as Wamuu was hit falling to the ground.
"He won! Wamuu won't get up again!" Lisa Lisa sheered but you were still suspicious.
"How could I, the great Wamuu be reduced to this? My body after twelve thousand years has been reduced t such pitiful stated, "Wamuu stat up as Joseph walked in front of him observing his enemy.
"His arms are gone!" He noticed sweat tickling down his face.
"I am not one to allow the enemy an easy victory. My wounds are my flesh. The damage I have sustained is my ability." Wamuu chanted. "I will use it all to claim victory!!!"
"His arms! He tore off his Hamon-damaged arms and launched them from the wound in his chest." Lisa Lisa commented as Joseph went flying crashing to the wall of the fireplace while Wamuu's arms started chocking him.
What the-? I cannot breath! Damn it! I cannot use my Hamon breathing! Joseph realized trying to regain his breath as he noticed Wamuu showed off his pipes on his body.
"That wind. It is flowing towards Wamuu....." The Joestar noticed weakly.
"This is my final attack!" Wamuu exclaimed as you and Kars stood up terrified for two completely different reasons.
"Final attack? NO!!" Sweat tickled down Kars's face. "Stop Wamuu! You mustn't!!!" But Wamuu did not listen.
"The wind is going into those pipes!" Your eyes widened in fear.
"Final Attack: ATMOSPHERIC RIFT!!!" Wamuu screamed dramatically.
"Joseph, watch out!!!"
The Warrior of Wind
Suddenly wind cut though the stone of the fireplace.
"That is wind?!" Joseph croaked out terrified.
"You are near the flame Jojo......I may know only your approximate location but now that you have ceased your Hamon breathing I will track you down little by little and dismember every centimeter of you!" Wamuu declared.
The Atmospheric Rift....Wamuu's final attack! Kars gulped worried. Instead of using the pipes to cloak himself with vapor he is drawing in massive amounts of air and compressing it within his lungs! He then expels the air at extremely high pressure through a razor-thin opening. It is an air scalpel. But the friction and heat created is too great for even Wamuu. His body is able to withstand the stress for only so long. It will son tear him apart!
"How tragic and so very exquisite." You stated as Kars looked at you in surprise. "This is a decision of time as well as tactics, Wamuu or Joseph? Who will prevail, who will hold out longer or is able to outsmart his opponent in the end? It all depends on them...." Your eyes were glowing in anticipation.
"Jojo!" Lisa Lisa cried out.
"It is close! I have got to come up with a plan!" Joseph's mind was racing. "This one is called the Hamon oil trick!" Joseph pulled out an oil flask holding it to the hot flame.
"His body is like a highly pressurized oxygen tank! Those pipes on his chest. If I can hit them with this firebomb he will inhale the flames and blow himself to smithereens! This is my last chance!!! If I mess this up...." Then the Atmospheric Rift cut Joseph as he let out a cry in agony.
"Found you!!!" " Wamuu stated.
"Hit!" Joseph cursed throwing the oil flask carelessly. "Take this Wamuu!" But said Pillar Man cut it simply in two halves.
"A firebomb?" Wamuu asked. "Pathetic. I cannot see that which is close to the fire but an object one meter away that is different! You are out of tricks and that useless cry gave away your position. Now.....ATOSPHERIC RIFT!!!"
"Joseph!" You shouted pointing at your forehead as his eyes widened in recognition.
"Yes that might work. Caesar! I need your help!!" He lit the purple-orange bandana aflame throwing it at Wamuu.
"More fire?" Wamuu questioned. "Keep trying. Remember I can sense any object within one meter!" He cut it into tiny pieces as you hid your smirk behind your gloved hand. "And now I will cut you o pieces and end this battle!!!"
"Jojo!" Lisa Lisa shouted terrified.
"He has finally won!" Kars exclaimed.
"Wamuu!" Joseph held out his hands. "You lost the moment I threw Caesar's bandana." He successfully stopped the Pillar Man. "Don't you see? I meant for you to break that bottle. Your ability to slice the bottle in half is what let to your demise. The oil is now a gas inside your body and that bandana of Caesar's you sliced up?"
"The fire is still burning." You continued. "And Wamuu is pulling it in, a shame."
Wamuu.....You are an extraordinary warrior. But Caesar and Y/N were with me all the way."
Right as he finished Wamuu's body exploded.
"He.....lost. Lord Wamuu----he lost!" The vampires were left shocked only Wamuu's head was still left in one piece as finally Joseph was able to free himself from Wamuu's arms breathing freely again.
"Jojo he is able to regenerate himself, even after being blown to bits!" Lisa Lisa warned. "You must finish him with a direct Hamon fist attack!!"
"So it has finally come to an end Jo....jo...." Wamuu stated as Joseph looked down at him.
"It has."
"You took your revenge for Caesar, for his loss of the Hamon ability."
"I did."
"Then do it. Finish me." Wamuu said accepting his fate as Joseph clenched his fist.
"So be it!!!" He hit the stone ground next to Wamuu's head the blood dripping down.
"What is this?" Wamuu questioned confused.
"That smoke is not from the explosion. It is from the wound I inflicted on you with my Hamon. It seems the Hamon from your chest and leg wounds is spreading throughout your body. I know how painful it is for your kind, Y/N once told me the story of a man named Blueford. I cannot mend you but maybe Y/N can. For now I can at least ease your pain with my blood as you leave this world. Y/N!!! Come here for a sec!!"
You threw a last glance at Kars but he did not stop you so you sprinted to him.
"Bastard! Do you wish to disgrace me as I perish? Stop I need not pity from my enemy!" Wamuu screamed as you spoke up reaching his side.
"So you think what Joseph did here was pity? So tell me why did you not destroy the bubble that carried Caesar's headband and the ring with the antidote? Was it pity? I think not I saw you there."
"It was because that mean was a proud warrior!" Wamuu exclaimed. "I wished to honor him!" He hesitated. "Could it be Jojo....?"
"That is right Wamuu." Joseph confirmed "A fight is a fight. I wanted to pay deference to you too. This blood represents my respect for you. Y/N do you think you can do something?" He asked you as you shook your head.
"I am sorry; it seems I can only heal human beings and animals, not pillar men and vampires. But let me tell you this Wamuu, as a warrior I admired you, your determination is truly fascinating, we could have become great friends if only we would not stand on different sides, so I try to ease your pain. Thanks to you, Joseph was able to grow. HEAL!" A warm aura surrounded you as your stand manifested.
"Joseph please step a bit closer so I am able to fix you up you really did well, I promise I buy you dinner if you survive this night." You smiled.
"Nice!" Joseph cheered
"thanks you Y/N. I have. I have lost Jojo. You are more of an honorable warrior than I ever was, you too Y/N, I won't look down on you anymore because you are a woman. You ....I lost to you too right when you spared me at our first encounter, never have I met someone quite like you, I think I kind of understand Lord Kars's obsession with you."
"Kill them!!!" Some vampires snapped leaping at Joseph.
"Stop!" Wamuu interfered latching himself on the crossbow using his hair, shooting himself off killing them with his horn. "Barbarians!" His horn broke as you caught his head laying him down to the ground gently, seeing he killed them.
"Why?" You asked amused. "You know I am perfectly capable to take them out too."
"I am a sworn to Lord Jars but I will not allow the vampires to attack you or Jojo. I uttered the same words to Caesar. That was not an act of sentimentality. To me a strong warrior is the only truth. Victory alone is just and admirable. I lived according to my own code of honor. Immortality means nothing to me I think the same goes for you too Y/N. All that matters to me is a life of honor. Now Jojo....Drink the antidote before me. Before I fade away forever."
"How will you know?" the Joestar inquired.
"I need not to touch see or hear it. I will know the action itself is enough.
Joseph took the antidote as the poison ring around his aorta dissolves.
"I have no regrets I say to you now from the bottom of my heart I am grateful to have witnessed your journey perhaps I had to drift through twelve thousand years of life to finally meet you Jojo. Y/N, Jojo....Farewell." He dissolves into dust flying with the night breeze becoming one with the wind.
"Farewell, Warrior Wamuu, Pillar Man. May you rest in peace." You whispered looking after the dust sighing. "Perhaps, perhaps you were right, perhaps it was fate....but I do not believe in the concept of fate, tonight you are able to leave your body behind and became one with yourself, the wind is your element and wind you shall be..."
