EOH part 7

(Y/n) had to introduce her father to other human allies she had made over her life, the rest of the Joestars and their friends. Kars was not really impressed with them. However, his attention was turned to Jonathan. He sensed incredible hamon energy from the nobleman. Jonathan was excited to meet the father of his adopted sister and the creator of the stone masks. (Y/n) made sure their discussions were peaceful and that they did not fight. Some of the allies still mistook Wamuu and Esidisi for their much friendlier ghost selves, only to apologize after seeing their mistake. Santana would politely correct their mistake, but talk to them anyway. He still was annoyed by the presence of both young and old Joseph. A tense peace was over the group as all rested from their battles.
The plum haired pillar girl walked through the little section of morioh that seemed strangely devoid of human life. She stopped in the convenience store on the corner and found that there was nobody behind the register. 'I don't feel right about just taking some snacks, even with this anomaly going on.,' she thought to herself, 'What am I going to do?' She heard the chime of the door open. Her red eyes looked over and saw that it was Josuke, "I thought I'd find you here. Let me guess, you had to get away from everyone for a bit?" "Not really. I am legitimately happy that everyone I love is here. I was just thirsty.," The young woman replied.

Josuke followed her as she looked at the drinks and snacks, "Your dad is quite intense. He's kind of scary." "He's very scary.," (y/n) replied as she pondered what of the drinks and snacks she wanted, "I sometimes wondered how mom was not scared of him and fell in love with him." Her chuckle was a carefree one. "Well, (y/n), I wanted to tell you that some of us are going into the light rift. I'm one of the chosen two, Mr. Joestar, I mean Jonathan is the other.," Josuke told her, "I wanted to tell you, just so you would know." "Thanks for the heads up. But I have faith in your abilities. You are the son of a Joestar, you are a Joestar, you have the heart and power of a Joestar.," The young woman spoke as she chose her drink and snack, "You can do this. Go through the rift. And if you find a friend, bring him back." The pillar woman put some money into the register, along with some stamps for the store that she had found, "That should be enough for me to come back and get something else later."
"See you later!," Josuke said to his stepsister and ran off to fulfill his mission. "Sweet boy.," the red eyed young woman said to herself as she went to find a place to sit down and enjoy her snack. She climbed on top of a building to watch the allies below. She watched Caesar and Joseph talk to Wamuu while Mista and Polnareff Talked to Ivory, much to Kars' displeasure. The young woman took a bite of her soft and sweet cream bun treat as she watched her friends below. She watched as Jonathan and Josuke went into the light rift. She saw Jotaro and Jolyne talking as well. She felt a sense of peace wash over her. This is something she wanted. To be able to watch over the Joestar line. She took another bite of the bun.

A metallic ringing caught her ears as she heard a familiar voice, "The family and friends you have made over the years, all in one area. Yet, it took calamity to make your wishes come true. Just what did you two do to create this mess?" "I don't know, but I remember when he found me in that cave, Starving to death.," the plum haired pillar woman replied, "His words were kind." "The words of a snake still have venom.," Avalon spoke as he set down next to his Stand Master, "You need to be careful around him and the others." "I know.," (y/n) sighed and felt her stomach do flips. Stress from knowing the power and potential danger to her friends and her was starting to have its effects known. She heard a chuckle from her stand, "To see myself again with your mother on my arm, what warm and sweet nostalgia. To see Esidisi, Wamuu and Santana again is also a great treat. It is a shame that their sacrifice was what was needed to save the ones who remained."
(Y/n) touched a scar that marred her otherwise smooth and statuesque skin, "It is. However, it was necessary. I won't lie and say that I don't miss them, because I do. Even as I still feel them with me." Avalon turned to his Stand master, he did not say anything to her. They did not have to as they both knew what they wanted to talk about. The pillar woman looked down to the street as she took a drink from the drink she purchased. She saw Kars' red eyes look back up to hers, as well as Esidisi and Wamuu. They were not looking at her, but her metallic companion. "They can see you, Avalon. That shows how much our power has grown. From your fusion with that Aja to the sacrifice...," (y/n)'s words trailed off, "Our life has been an almost constant stream of love and loss."

She and Avalon watched as Wamuu, Kars and Esidisi hopped up to the top of the store to join her. Kars stared at Avalon, the stand returned his gaze. The Aja stone eyes of the large stand had an unearthly light to them as they stared back to the pillar man king. The stand stood over the woman who had her back to the others. "Is there something you need, father?," the plum haired young woman asked, "Or do you wish to speak to him?" "This creature can speak?," Kars asked. "Quite rude of a statement.," Avalon spoke as he lifted off the ground to float in the air, "Especially towards yourself, well, your future self." (Y/n) cast her eyes back towards her father and stand, "No need to get into a fight. But, he is your future. His soul fused with my stand power, becoming my stand as I was unable to pull it out otherwise." "Soul? Was I killed?," Kars asked. "No. We attained the goal of becoming the ultimate lifeform. However, we were launched into space, leaving her alone on earth.," Avalon told the pillar man king, "we almost lost our sanity out there. But our link to (y/n) pulled us back. I regret becoming what I was because immortality..." "Is a lonely curse to have," (y/n) finished his sentence, "Without others to keep Avalon and I company, our seemingly immortal lifespan became boring and meaningless. Besides my self appointed duty to watch over humanity."
Kars and the other pillar men looked below them to see the Joestars and their allies talking peacefully below and having some small arguments. A smile was on the pillar woman's face, "Humans are so short lived compared to us, yet their lives can be considered quite beautiful." She saw some of her friends notice her and wave, asking her to come down and play some games to pass the time. She waved back to them and motioned for them to go on. "Almost like the flowering trees of spring.," the plum haired young woman spoke as she stood, "Strength in their weakness compared to us, beauty in their frailty. That is my views on humans. It differs from your views greatly, but it is the truth that I have come to known."

The hums of the light rift caused her to look down, "Sounds like Josuke and Jonathan are back. More than likely they brought someone with them." "If that is correct, then these corpse parts must all have been found by now.," Kars spoke, "We have not finished our discussion yet." "To be put on hold, Kars.," Avalon spoke as he and (y/n) jumped down to see who Johnathan and Josuke brought back. Josuke brought two people back, Jonathan brought a young man and a horse back. Avalon disappeared as she walked up to greet the returning friends and the newcomers. Speedwagon was already greeting them.  "Welcome back and welcome to the team.," the pillar woman spoke as she walked up, "It is a pleasure to met you..." Her speech dropped off after seeing one of the teens that Josuke brought back with him. The teen had a slimy air and gross facial expression. Out of instinct, she gave him a sharp kick. "What was that for?!," the hat wearing teen next to Josuke asked.
"Oh, he was not an enemy?," The plum haired girl asked, "My bad." Josuke walked over and healed the whining teen as (y/n) turned to pet the nose of the horse. "Wow. So handsome, what's his name?," she asked the rider. "Slow Dancer.," the rider replied, "My name is Johnny." "I'm (y/n). Pleased to meet you.," the young woman took his hand when he offered it to shake, she smelled his blood as she did. "Your blood. You are a Joestar by this scent.," the young woman spoke before following her nose to the hat wearing teen, "You smell of the Joestar Bloodline as well. Plus something else." The hat wearing boy seemed to get excited when she said that, "You can smell who I am? Then you can help me!"

"I can only tell you what I can smell of your blood. So my answers may not be everything you need.," the young woman replied, "You smell of at least two different people." "Your information is confusing, but, it is better than nothing at all.," the boy replied, "Thank you, miss." "I hope your search for your true identity goes well.," the pillar girl replied as she turned to Jonathan, "How many corpse parts is that?" "I don't know...," Jonathan answered before Speedwagon got excited. "Everyone, gather around!," the ecstatic blond man announced as the other Joestars gathered around them. They did a head count on what parts each of them possessed. They had eight parts altogether. However, one was missing. "What? One missing?," Jonathan asked, "Then it has to be found." "We will have to scour more areas then. The spine is missing, the final piece!," Speedwagon announced before he stopped.
An eerie fog rolled into the town. From the fog come the scent of death and a hideous cackle. "Keikeikei! You Joestars have gathered the corpse parts, yet you still are missing one!," the all too familiar voice of Enya sounded. The groans and shambling of her undead followers sounded, echoing through the street as everyone was surrounded by the putrid weaponized corpses. "You won't find it!," the old woman laughed, "For the noble one already has it in his possession! You are all destined to die and lose the corpse here, the noble one design noble have to even lift a finger!" The pillar girl stepped forward, "leave this to me. I still hunger for flesh. Both dead and living." The Pillar men looked on from overhead.

The first undead came for her, only for the blades of her stand to slice through it cleanly. "Avalon's blades are meant to cut through anything, evil, flesh, stone, metal, wood, even darkness. Nothing has stopped our shining blades.," (y/n) said in utmost confidence in her powerful stand's ability to absolutely brutalize opponents. Avalon's voice added to hers, "To face us, is to face your Execution!" With another slash of the bladed wings, Avalon and his Master cut down more Zombies. Blood, entrails and bile splattered on the ground after the clean slash. "This will be messy.," Avalon spoke on his own. (Y/n) gave a sharp toothed grin, "Let's paint the streets!" "Gladly!," the stand yells in reply before both started slashing as Enya started screaming that (y/n) was not supposed to be the one fighting. Her cries came too late as the stand and pillar woman cut through the zombies with little effort. The shining and singing blades splattered blood over the cement as zombies were bisected, diced and pummeled. The old woman was not exempt as she got a sharp kick from the pillar girl, some of the woman's flesh disappeared where their skin met. It would not take long.
