What happened previously:
"Good...." He stepped onto Jotaro putting all his strength into each of his steps. As Jotaro tried to keep silent but could not help but grunting in pain as Dan of Steel stomped over him relishing in his pain. "You are rather sturdy bridge aren't you? Aren't you?" He sung, testing him by jumping a bit and wobbling. "Aren't you?!" he stomped on Jotaro's right hand. "Aren't you....Now Y/N your turn...what shall I make you do? Oh, I know....why don't you start with being a bride yourself for Jotaro so your godson can cross to by walking over you? Isn't that a great idea?"
"Mr Joestar, Y/N told me that the enemy must be there, hiding around the thalamus, the point where the nerve system begins. Polnareff and I will enter a blood vessel from inside your inner ear then swim through the blood vessels toward the brain system. Polnareff, open a slit n the wall of his blood vessel!" Kakyoin instructed.
"Hey, hold on! You are using your Stands! Can't they just got through instead?" Joseph protested.
"Not at this size. The blood vessel is way too thick. The hole will be microscopic in size so bleeding won't be an issue at our side. And for your reassurance Y/N can heal it when we meet up later. Severing a blood vessel or nerve would take several minutes. Otherwise the Lovers would have done it already. Though it may have already started...." Kakyoin stated.
"Keeping our Stand this small is really exhausting." Polnareff breathed out. "You need a lot of Stand power. Here we go!" He used Silver Chariot to slice the said blood vessel as Joseph screamed while the Stand swam along the blood stream.
"Oh my God!!....I...do not feel so well...."
THE LOVERS PART2
-----------------------------------
Dio was sitting on his large kingsized bed with one of his most trusted companions; Enrico Pucci, a dark skinned young man with white hair, talking about the purpose of life, philosophy and HEAVEN, but still he had doubts towards the younger man not only concerning him but concerning Y/N...
"Hey....did you know Pucci? The Louvre of Paris gets an average of forty thousand visitors every day. I saw a Michael Jackson concert on TV recently with that many people but that does not happen every day. The Louvre gets that many people for years and years every single day. It first opened in 1793. Everyday forty thousand people are attracted to the Mona Lisa and Milo's Venus and they do not leave until they see both of them. Don't you think that is amazing?" Dio hummed looking through a book about said museum.
"Are you saying that what is amazing are the numbers?" Pucci asked him lifting his head.
"That is not it....what I am saying is amazing is how skilled painters and sculptors are able to shape their souls into something visible for others. It is almost like A Stand that transcends time....Don't you think so? Y/N's Stand allows her to live on forever, remaining beautiful for all eternity like an incredible painting or stature...." Dio sighed.
"That is an interesting theory, you seem to love Y/N very dearly, since you are speaking so highly of her every time, but are you saying that Leonardo da Vinci is a Stand user?" The dark skinned man inquired softly, he had grown interested in this woman too.
"Hey....I am talking about you as well. Your White Snake has the ability to shape people's souls and preserve them."The blond man grabbed Pucci's wrist harshly shocking the other. "Are you going to betray me someday? Why won't you attack me? What about Y/N? Will you hurt her? Will you take her away from me? You already know that my weakness is sunlight and you know I sleep in the dark during the day while I dream to hold my love in my arms...my one and only one. You could easily be able to kill me in my sleep....you could kill Y/N too, with her Stand Heal and my Stand The World you could become the ruler of this world for all eternity." Dio shouted getting agitated.
"I....have never even thought of doing that to you or her. I like people who help me, encourage my growth and Y/N was the one who supported you and became your inspiration. You are the king of kings and she is the one you chose as an equal compared to you...Where will both of you end up? I want to see it through, to the very end. I love you as I love God and you love her more than anything else on this world, so of course I love her too with all of my heart even though I have never met her personally." Pucci replied dead serious as Dio abruptly let go as if he had burned himself.
"Don't you dare. She belongs to me. And only me!" he glared at the other male as his tone softened. "I apologize....I have insulted you. I never thought that I would meet someone who could put me at ease without Y/N by my side just by talking....I was afraid of losing you and of losing Y/N to someone else, including you. I am sure you will become a honorable child of God, I want you to watch over Y/N, protect her with all means from the Joestar bloodline if I fall victim to my own love and desire for her. She is not only my greatest motivation but also my greatest weakness....Here it is a token of my apology and of my selfish request. I took it out of my body. Wherever you go, I will give you power...to make sure she is safe from the Joestars."
Pucci looked at his closed right hand as blood dripped out of it, seeing....a bone.
"Do not worry I will not disappoint you, I will carry out your will, I wish you luck."Pucci agreed calmly. Y/N L/N, a story of ture love...
--------
MEANWHILE:
No, I do not want to! Jotaro's eyes widened in horror biting his lip, drawing blood as you complied, making yourself into a bridge without complaining at all.
"Come on Jotaro, just do it." You snickered as Jotaro clenched his fist as Dan of Steel observed you curiously.
"I half expected you to not do it in all honesty Y/N" He chuckled pleasantly surprised as you smiled closing your eyes not responding....He was just not worth it.
Shakily Jotaro breathed out taking the first step trying not to hurt you crossing quickly as he helped you up as you patted his shoulder rubbing comforting circled on his back. He hated it....
"Do not worry too much we will make him pay." You promised as Dan of Steel started walking humming as both of you followed him as suddenly he stopped.
"Hey Y/N. My back itched......scratch it!" He ordered as you walked over to him scratching "Just a little lower, lower...." Dan instructed. "Oh yeah that is it. But not too hard mind you. You would make an excellent wife."
However at the electronics store Joseph was screaming on top of his lungs.
"Mister Joestar? What is the matter?" Polnareff asked in concern.
"It feels like someone is tickling my back! I cannot concentrate much longer like this!" Joseph shouted sweat tickling down his face as he started screaming again.
"Mister Joestar!" Kakyoin warned turning around to see a whole crowd assembled around the three foreigners watching them. "Looks like we have for quite the captive audience, Mister Joestar, keep your voice down." The red head tried uneasy.
"People are staring." Polnareff added "They will thing you are crazy."
"You think I am screaming for the hell of it?" Joseph yelled "OH NO!!!"
"That poor man...." A young man commented from the side lines.
"Let's give him some change." An old woman suggested
"Why are they throwing money?" Kakyoin asked confused as another woman with glasses whispered to another man.
"Older relatives like that can be tough." She stated the crowd continued tot throw a few coins.
"Yeah I know." The man replied while Polnareff was panicking.
"Kakyoin go buy a TV!" She silver haired Frenchman begged. "Let's get out of this crowd."
"Right!" The teenager agreed going to the middle aged man at the door of the electronics store. "Is this your store?"
"Uh...Yes it is..."T The man replied startled.
"I would like to buy that TV."
Suddenly Dan of Steel stopped walking squinting his eyes. Unbelievable....Kakyoin's Hierophant Green and Polnareff's Silver Chariot shrunk themselves to a microscopic level and infiltrated Joestar's body....They intend to fight me? Was it Y/N's idea? Did she tell them before Kakyoin ran off? I can see them! They are traveling through the bloodstream and heading toward the rain stem to my Lovers. Dan realized smiling before scontinuing as you looked at you pocket watch grimly.
Polnareff and Joseph meanwhile were carrying the TV up some stairs.
"Quickly! We do not have long before the flesh bud in Mister Joestar's brain eats clean through! Hurry you two!" Kakyoin shouted.
"There! Alright!" Polanreff exclaimed setting down the TV in a secluded area stepping away. "Do it Mister Joestar!"
"HERMIT PURPLE!!" they saw Hierophant Green and Silver Chariot entering...
"These are the flesh bud's tentacles!" Kakyoin realized looking at the large barricade of the dark brownish tentacles. "We finally made it to the brain stem but the flesh bud has already taken over!"
"Damn it! It is him!" Polnareff noticed as Silver Chariot saw the Lovers, a golden Stand with giant crab claws and red eyes.
"Look! He is using those weird claws to knead Mr Joestar's brain cells into a gooey mask so he can feed them to the flesh bud! We have to destroy him and tear out the flesh bud's roots quickly or they will completely devour his brain! " Kakyoin exclaimed.
"Okay! I will julienne him to ribbons! You know on second thought....A Finer cut should do the trick! Like grating a radish!!" Polanreff decided cutting the Lovers with Silver Chariot's rapier as they went back and forth nil he cut its head.
"He did it!"
"No, not quite." Polnareff stated "I have got to say Kakyoin that thing is pretty fast. But I have already figured him out. If that is all that little beast has then he is no match for-"
"Polnareff!" Kakyoin yelled "Who the hell are you talking to?" Silver Chariot looked around perplexed seeing two Hierophant Greens. "Polnareff that is not me and that was not a Stand you slashed! IT is melting away!"
"What?" Silver Chariot looked back seeing that one of the Hierophant Greens was slowly melting.
"I AM THE LOVERS!" The enemy Stand declared smugly hitting Silver Chariot's stomach with his claws making Polanreff cough up blood.
"Polnareff! Joseph screamed in horror as they continued to watch the fight through the TV.
"He disguised himself! He was wearing Mr Joestar's brain! Somehow that thing used the kneaded brain cells to disguise himself as my Hierophant Green!" Kakyoin commented "all you destroyed was a decoy made of those brain cells!"
"And you dummies completely fell for it!" The lovers sneered laughing madly as suddenly Dan of Steel broke down laughing hysterically while Jotaro tidied up his shoes with a white cloth, your handkerchief.
"Come on!" Dan laughed kicking Jotaro's face as the teenager coughed up blood. "Pull your head out of your ass! Better shine these shoes right Jotaro! I am in a fantastic mood right now! So until these shoes shine as bright as I feel and I can see that bright sun on them clear as day I am going to need you to polish your little heart out. If you'd like you are welcome to use your uniform. Actually why don't you use your tongue?" He suggested as you piped up
"Sorry, but that would be no option since Polnareff used up all of our resources by disinfecting his tongue." You stated as Jotaro stood up pulling out a small pocket book writing something down while you smirked proudly, however it angered the opponent.
"Hey you bastard!" Dan snatched the small book from Jotaro's hands. "What are you writing?"
"You are looking at you tab." Jotaro stated grimly, smirking dangerously "and you are going to pay in full. I wrote it down so I won't forget."
Suddenly Dan slapped Jotaro across his cheek as a trail of blood dripped down from the corners of Jotaro's mouth.
"You are a scoundrel, Jotaro ." He sighed before smiling closing his eyes. "Well it does not matter. It will be meaningless in the end."
"Kakyoin look!" Siler Chariot pointed out "Check out the decoy's head I just opened."
"What the hell is going on?" Joseph sweated nervously "he is splitting into two!!"
"Listen up!" The Lovers exclaimed "to win in life one must thoroughly know oneself" TI is like Aesop's fable when the unassuming tortoise beats the hare. The tortoise outruns the hare because he knows his abilities better than anyone! Of course the same applies to me. I know perfectly well I lack the power and speed to mortally wound either of you. But remember this! The spoils belong to those who admit their own weaknesses!"
"EMERALD SPLASH!!" Kakyoin declared as Hierophant Green shot the Lovers.
"Did it work?" Polnareff asked him however another two doubles appeared in its place shocking Kakyoin, Joseph and the Frenchman.
"More decoys are forming from the brain cells." Kakyoin observed. "They are multiplying! But a person can have only one Stand which means only one is real! Where is the real one?"
"RIGHT HERE!" In that moment the army of doubles rushed forward attacking the original wounding Polnareff's back some were killed by Kakyoin's Hierophant Green.
"Close but no cigar! I was standing right next to-!" The Lovers stated as it got hit by his Emerald Splash but it did nothing as only more decoys formed.
"The more decoys we hit, the more they multiply!" Kakyoin realized in panic.
"NO! NO! T IS ME!!!!" Each of the replied. "THEY ARE ALL ME!!!"
"Polnareff that is enough! Withdraw your Stand now. I cannot watch you get hurt even if you are trying to save me." Joseph stated.
"NO WAY IN HELL!" The silver haired man yelled back. "I cannot stand the thought of giving up and watching you die like his!"
"Withdraw your Stand! You will be killed!" Joseph ordered sternly. "Do as I say. It is over."
"We fight to the end Mister Joestar!" Kakyoin protested desperately somehow convincing the old man as he nodded hesitantly. "I cannot tell....They look all the same! Which is the real one? Which is the Stand? I cannot tell them apart!" Sweat tickled down the red head's face.
"the world's weakest Stand is....The most....the most.....The most powerful of all!!!" the Lovers announced cheering as the army ambushed them!
You and Jotaro were waiting inside the jewelry shop watching Dan of Steel cautiously.
"Hey no Jotaro look! A beautiful gold bracelet. Pretty impressible eh? It would make any girl fall head over heels. Jotaro see that space there in the glass? Use your Stand to sneak through and steal it!" He ordered as your eyes flashed dangerously.
"I could just buy it." You furrowed your eyebrows. "And not every girl or boy falls just in love because of some cheap item, those are not in love, those are gold diggers." You gritted out.
"It does not matter." Dan waved you off. "Jotaro! Steal it. What don't you understand? Get a move on! I mean I do not mind breaking the glass and taking the bracelet myself. Then again if I am caught I could be beaten to a bloody pulp and I am sure the old man will die from the pain. Ad look at Y/N, pretty, pretty Y/N....She should not pay for that tiny little thing. Now should she? She already gave up so much for you do you want to take advantage f her wallet even more? Like a dependent child, is she your mother or something? Your sugar daddy? HURRY UP! While the salesman is looking the other way!"
"No Jotaro don't!" You whisper shouted but he only shrugged you off using Star Platinum to get the bracelet out of the showcase it all went smoothly until-
"THIS GUYS IS SHOP LIFTING!!" Dan shouted triumphantly.
"Please sir! Do not let him get away!" The shop owner screamed calling the security.
"Sure thing." Dan smirked snickering.
"You son of a-"you wanted to punch him so badly but stopped yourself in the last second, punching the ground instead.
"All right? Where is the thief? Who is the culprit? That guy there? That Japanese kid?" Three bulky men arrived cracking their knuckles. "You know back where I come from when someone steals something we chop off their fingers!"
"Hey Jotaro....You better do not use your Stand against civilians." Dan chuckled hitting Jotaro's shoulder in a joking manner as he moved to you whispering. "Don't you dare interfere or else!"
He laughed as the teenager, your godson you swore to protect with your life, got beat up in front of you, enduring every single insult they threw at him, enduring each hit as Dan laughed cold heartedly relishing in your pain as Jotaro was thrown out of the shop as he followed.
"Now get the hell out of our country you despicable thief! Good for nothing asshole! We will let you off easy you can keep your fingers for now!"
They went back inside the store as you made a decision walking to the counter.
"I am sorry for my companion; he only wanted to take it out to see if it could fit around my wrist. The other man just completely misunderstood his intentions and acted rashly. We are sorry for the trouble we caused. We did not know that is was forbidden to take out the lovely jewelry for closer inspection. I sincerely apologize for his behavior, we should have asked for your permission first..." you bowed your head lightly as the shop owner looked at you in confusion before his eyes widened in horror.
"N-no... no----....mean...we...."
"I, of course understand that you were just doing your duty to protect your humble business, but if you do not mind, I still want to buy the bracelet though." You bowed again as the owner waved his hands around frantically. "We are form the Speedwagon Foundation and we wanted to seek for a partnership with righteous businesses which specialize in jewelry making and design and we thought about..." You trailed off as you saw his face going pale.
"We are sorry!!" he bowed his head in shame handing you the bracelet. "Here have it as a gift. Please we are sorry, please forgive us. It was not our intention to beat up innocent people due to some sort of misunderstanding please reconsider." He smiled nervously as you waved him off saying your thanks before exiting the shop with the bracelet rushing to Jotaro's side healing the beat up teenager as you gave Dan the stupid bracelet.
"That was great! Nicely done, my friend!" Dan chuckled as he pulled out a beautiful necklace with greenish sparkling gems. "Thanks to the commotion you caused I was able to get my hands on an even better piece and now Y/N got the bracelet too!" He laughed as you glared at him as you helped Jotaro up as both of you started to chuckle.
"Jotaro! Y/N! What the hell are you laughing at? What is so damn funny?" He screamed at you.
"Nothing. I am gust a bit excited. I was laughing because your punishment doubled and I have been waiting for this moment!" Jotaro replied smirking as you checked your pocket watch.
"True. It is almost payback time and it really gets one tingling with anticipation." You added.
"Why you-!" Dan kicked you in your stomach but you only blinked unfazed.
"It seems we might have a bit of a misunderstanding. I hate to break it into both of you but the old man is soon going to kick the bucket. That is the reality you are facing." He screamed irritated.
"You are pathetic, you are utterly useless..." you shook your head sighing.
"You do not know us very well, do you?" Jotaro stated. "I see you do not know Kakyoin and Y/N at all."
"Come again?" The Lovers shouted at the red head.
"It seems to me you are obsessed with the notion of knowing oneself. It makes sense. I suppose I am inclined to agree. To know one is an important lesson but so is knowing your enemy! You should have done your homework. Can't you see? My hierophant Green has the power to stretch out its feelers! I have been inspecting every one of you."
Suddenly one of the feelers blinked.
"How could I have not noticed something touching me?" The Lovers panicked.
"So you are the Stand! EMERALD SPLASH!" Kakyoin shouted as the Emeralds hit the true Stand.
"Success!" Joseph and Polnareff cheered.
Blood gushed out of Dan's forehead as you applauded lightly chuckling, Kakyoin did a truly wonderful job.
"Well, well...Looks like Kakyoin got you pretty damn good. I am wondering....Will I get my payback once he is done?" Jotaro grinned as the Lovers tried to make their escape.
"He has realized he is out of his league! He is trying to escape into the artery to get out from Mister Joestar's brain!" Kakyoin observed.
"Huh? Did you say he is leaving?" Joseph questioned
"All right! That is great news isn't it?" Polanreff pumped his fist.
"Now Mister Joestar hurry!"
"True...OVERDRIVE!" Joseph declared sending Hamon through hs brain killing the flsh bud.
"The flesh bud is vanishing!" Kakyoin stated in relief.
"Yes...this whole experience sure had done a lot to bring us together." Polnareff grinned.
"You are incorrigible Polnareff." Joseph agreed "Wait a moment...If that thing is really trying to leave my brain. It will go back to its Stand user, Dan of Steel! This is bad! Jotaro and Y/N have no way of knowing!"
"Mr Joestar I think you are underestimating Y/N" the red head pointed out "She will definitely notice his change of demeanor and make sure he does not get his chance to strike back."
Dan of Steel had a look of terror imprinted on his face as he took a few steps back in panic.
"What is wrong? Why are you backing away from me? Are you not going to tell me more about my grandfather's death?" Jotaro stated calmly as Dan tried to run but Jotaro held him back. "Hey, what is with the big hurry? Got somewhere to go?" you are not trying to run away are you? After all you have done....Y/N what do you think?" He let go as Dan was on his knees begging for forgiveness even licking Jotaro's shoes as you scrunched up your nose in disgust but you knew his compliance was obviously fake.
"Jotaro, I am done with him, let's finish him off before his stand arrives. He is all yours." You chuckled evilly. "But remember...show no mercy!"
"Of course. I am done with him, I am going to finish him quickly I am sick of seeing his face." Jotaro agreed manifesting Star Platinum sending Dan of Steel flying breaking through a solid wall with a barrage of punches breaking eachh of his ones in the process as star Platinum roared:
"ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA!!!"
You whistled in amazement.
"Your receipt. Keep the freaking change." Jotaro stated ripping off a page of his pocket book as both of you turned around dramatically walking away as you hear a painful scream.
Carefully you looked under your hoe his stand the Lovers under it as you smiled.
"Well....I think this was long overdue, you won't die from this I just crushed both of your legs beyond repair. Let's keep on moving."
