"Hey! Put him down!" Knowing that without having the ability to breath Caesar would be left defenseless you'd taken it upon yourself to take the chance to land a hit on the man, your enclosed fist made contact with his torso in a flash- the speed of which even had you surprised and without thinking sparks of hamon crawled up your arm burning away the flesh you'd been touching.
"Another?" Dragging his eyes away from Caesar down towards where you stood the large man scanned your face, a sense of familiarity was felt although it was brief so he'd brushed it off rather quickly. Reaching out swifty he'd seized the wrist of the hand you'd used to punch, hamon still coursed through it but he appeared unbothered. "Little one. Who are you that your hamon differs?"
Blinking up at the man unsure of what he was talking about you tried tugging your hand away only to find that his grip was solid.
Seeing that you were remaining quiet Wamuu turned his attention towards Caesar, the blond still struggling to breath. "Come face me again when you're stronger, boy. When we meet again...I want to admire your strength...before I utterly destroy you." Nothing else left the man's mouth afterwards and he'd simply tossed the blond aside.
"Caesar!" Twisting to see your companion breathing heavily against the ground you once again tried pulling your hand free, the stream of Hamon you maintained was still going but it appeared like the man's burning skin meant nothing to him.
"I'll ask again," Forcing your arm up from where it was, Wamuu leaned down so that his face was lined up with your own. "Who are you." The grip on your wrist grew even tighter and you couldn't help but let out a faint noise.
"(Y/N). (Y/N) (L/N)." Answering with that you could begin to feel your fingers grow numb, you didn't understand what was so important about who you were but it appeared like he thought otherwise.
The grip on your wrist loosened faintly yet his hold was still firm, his head turned back to face the other two. "It seems there are no other Hamon users. Though there is something interesting here." Sparing a glance towards you, Wamuu's words finished quickly.
Looking towards where you stood as well Kars responded to the man, "Let's move. Bring it with us."
Knowing that the 'it' in this case meant you, you once again tried pulling away, the man currently keeping you in place merely just turned, beginning to walk up the stairs stopping only when the sound of someone aggressively clearing their throat sounded.
Turning your head back your eyes landed on Joseph, the brunette staring smugly at the man. "Here! Look here! Don't go and overlook me, now!" trailing towards Caesar the man checked him over quickly returning to face the Pillar Men. "Take your little Bubble Launcher and hang back. I'll take care of this and save our damsel in distress. It's about time to show off the brand new technique I've worked so hard on."
"Let me introduce myself. I'm Joseph Joestar, the guy who mopped the floor with your buddy." Raising his hands into the air they waved around a bit before a set of balls on string were produced, the two clicking together beneath his hand. "I call this the Hamon Clacker Volley. I start off by filling these clackers with Hamon," The items were jolted in place now knocking into each other before shooting up and crashing into the Brunettes head.
"Oh for gods sake," Facepalming at what had happened you tuned out what the others were saying trying to plan your own escape- seeing as the others at the moment were of very little help.
Easily dodging one of the clackers that was thrown, Wamuu eyed the brunette, the other two behind him merely laughed at the pathetic attack. "Perhaps humans have regressed over the years."
"Regressed?" Looking between the clacker than Joseph, Wamuu laughed. "Perhaps so."
"JoJo. Stop monkeying around! You just tossed metal balls at them! That doesn't even remotely help (Y/N)!" Casting his gaze away from Joseph and towards where you stood Caesar eyed the way your arm was held, he was unsure as to what motive he had to keep you there, but at the rate they were going it certainly wasn't going to be a good one.
"Blast it! Nobody here takes me seriously!" Pulling out some more clackers Joseph called the Pillar Men once more seeing that he'd begun dragging you off once again. "Hold it, big guy! You're gonna get hit!"
"Don't. Human lives are short enough. Do not rush to die."
Ignoring what was said Joseph swung his clackers around once more, words you didn't bother listening to were being yelled before the brunette showed empty hands. "Gotcha! Still fooled?If you don't get it.. Let me show you." Feeling like this was your chance to free yourself you raised your other hand gripping onto Wamuus wrist, the skin in response to your burst of Hamon singed off and in a quick motion you'd fallen back down the stairs.
A noise of surprise left you upon noticing that the man's hand was still attached to your wrist and in response you'd reflexively chucked it back shouting an apology.
"(Y/N)! Don't apologize! He's the bad guy!" Exclaiming that Joseph raised a hand pointing towards Wamuu, the Pillar Man responded to your apology with a laugh reattaching the missing appendage with ease.
"I admire your weapon, courage and ideas. This is becoming fun. Thus," Raising his hand, his pointer finger was shown. "I'll give you one minute. I bestow on you a single minute to fight the mighty Wamuu." A cut had appeared on Joseph's wrist and a stream of blood began spraying out of it. "As you see, I've cut your wrist. Your wound gives you one minute of consciousness to stop the bleeding. Give me everything you've got! Here is what I say to the Hamon tribe. 'Here is an hourglass measured in blood.'"
Knowing that at the moment you would be unable to aid the brunette you instead opted to cup your hands around your mouth calling out, "Kick his ass JoJo!" Hoping that the encouragement was enough you slipped out of your spot gradually making your way towards where Caesar and Speedwagon were.
Seeing that the blond was still seated among the floor you crouched before him reaching out to check his neck for any injuries, "Thank god your eye is fine, because I don't think you'd suit an eyepatch." Your words were spoken in a lighthearted manner, a failed attempt to put him at ease.
"You're the one who took most of the damage, the back of your shirt is dyed at this point." Clenching his jaw while leaning over your shoulder to peer at what he was talking about Caesar's hands curled into fists, his eyes trailed over the fabrics opening before falling onto the fight behind you.
Speedwagon, who'd been fully focused on the fight, yelled out for Joseph watching as both of Wamuu's arms turned into columns of wind. "Jo-JoJo!" Both yourself and Caesar had stopped the man from stepping over knowing that out of the entire group he had the lowest survival.
"Speedwagon you have to stay back!" Pulling on the man's jacket your eyes lingered over the limp form of Joseph, there was no way he was really down for the count but doubt ebbed its way into your mind. "This isn't something you can handle-" "Mr.Speedwagon, you have to take (Y/N) and run! I'll do something to hold him back!"
"Caesar, you couldn't do it by yourself before so what makes you think you can do it now?!" Bringing that to attention you raised a hand resting in on the blond's shoulder, you could feel how tense he was because of the situation.
"The blood in my eye threw off my aim. But it was enough, even when you hid behind the pillar." Looking towards where Joseph's body rested, Wamuu let out a sigh in disappointment. "Dead already?" Turning in place his eyes now moved towards where the tree of you stood, the deep blue colour of them appearing darker, "Ordinarily, I would ignore humans like yourselves. But you witnessed my shame, so I must be rid of you as well. Prepare yourselves."
Although what he was saying appeared detrimental you couldn't help but pear towards Joseph holding your breath as the brunette rose beginning to crawl away. Seeing Wamuu turn to peer back you watched Joseph fall back down onto the ground acting as though he hadn't moved at all.
What in gods name was he planning.
"I'm imagining things."
Realizing and hoping Joseph had a plan you took note that Caesar and Speedwagon were at a loss for words, the two presumably assuming that JoJo was abandoning you all.
"Ah so uh Pillar Men dude, what exactly is your name?" Right away his attention shifted towards where you stood, a puzzled look was set out across his face urging you to explain yourself. "I mean it's just- you asked who I was and you know since you said we were going to get rid of us I think it'd only be fair- right?" Finding that your tone of voice wavered you'd hoped that sparking up some sort of conversation would provide Joseph enough of a distraction.
Pursing his lips a deep hum left the tall blond, you had a point when asking what his name was and it would only be fair. "My name is Wamuu, of the Pillar Men."
Blinking a few times you made a faint gesture with your hand, "Just Wamuu? No last name? Like Geb or Smith? Maybe Wick?" Pivoting from one foot to the other your attention remained on the large man, you knew glancing towards Joseph could possibly give away the brunette's position.
"No, just Wamuu." Finding it suspicious that you'd been making an attempt to converse he couldn't help but look back towards where Joseph was seeing the man still- laying against the ground. "You're a strange one. Lord Kars would find interest in that."
"Oh yeah uh cool cool. So do you guys work out or anything because you are very well built." Continuing on with trying to occupy the blonds attention your eyes lingered over the visible muscled he had, hell he seemed like he had more boob than you did.
Once again staring down at you skeptically he went to answer before the sound of metal caught his attention, turning around his eyes right away landed on the form of Joseph climbing into a minecart. "Still alive, are you?!" Jumping from his place to stand over the brunette he stared him down. "You coward. You thought you could trick me and escape?!"
A leaver was pulled along the side of the card and the two began rolling down the track out of sight.
