Chapter 2: The Tower of Gray
EPISODE 4
Y/n's POV
We were all on the plane. It was late and I was tired. I was squished between Jotaro and Joseph.
"Listen Jotaro, I have no space and I really want to sleep. Let me rest my head on your shoulder" I say
"No" He says
"Well you know what? Screw you too, Joseph be a real one and help the homie out" I say
"Of course feel free" He says
"You see Jotaro this is how you're supposed to respond" I say laying against Joseph's (Arm/Shoulder)
"Good grief" Jotaro mutters. I fell asleep on Joseph. Shortly after I woke up to Joseph moving around
"Are we already encountering another stand user?" Joseph asks
"It is very possible. It could be a bug-shaped stand" Avdol says
"It hid in the shadows of the seats" Joseph says
"Wh-Where did it go?" Avdol asks. Jotaro got up and walked around.
"JoJo! It's on the side of your head! I-It's huge! It has to be a stand" Kakyoin yells.
"That's disgusting" I say looking at it. I pull out some hairspray and attempt to kill it. It dodges.
"You are correct, it's disgusting but leave this to me" Jotaro says
"Oh my hero" I say dramatically as I smirk
"Good grief woman" He says
"B-Be careful. I've heard there is a user of a bug stand that likes to rip out the tongues of its victims" Avdol says. Jotaro tries using Star to attack but it dodges
I-I can't believe it! It's faster than Star Platinum, whose speed and precision are such that it can grasp bullets" Avdol says
"Where is he? Where is he hiding?!" Kakyoin asks
"I got this one" I say winking. They all looked at me confused
"My skirt flew up!" I whine. They all look
"You're wearing pants Miss Y/n" Avdol says
"Well the imposter didn't know that but my plan didn't work" I say. Joseph face palms. The stand attacked and cut Star's hand
"No!" Jotaro says. He was bleeding out of his mouth
"It must be him! The Tower card of the Tarot. The one that depicts a stand suggesting destruction calamity and then end of a journey. Tower of Gray. Tower of Gray commits mass murders, making them look like accidents. The airplane crash that happened last year in England causing three hundred deaths, is thought to have been his work. I had heard rumors, but it seems he's working with Dio!" Avdol says. Star then began punching at the bug. The bug dodged
"Even if you were to have ten guns shoot bullets from one centimeter away, they would not be able to touch my stand! And you couldn't kill my stand with a bullet anyway" The stand says
"I say we beat up everyone and I'll just heal them" I say
"No" Kakyoin says
"It's a good idea" I say
"I think you just want to beat people up" Avdol says
"That is also true" I say. We watched the bug rip out people's tongues
Oh that's disgusting
It wrote Massacre on the wall with the blood
"I will burn it to death!" Avdol says
"Don't do that, you'll literally kill us all" I say. We then saw a man wake up
20 bucks its him
He got up and for no reason put his hand on the wall
That's suspicious, I can heal him if I'm wrong. I rushed over and drop kicked him
"Y-Y/N!" They all yell as the man falls over. The stand screams in pain.
"Bingo! I owe myself 20 bucks ahaha" I say
"She did it" Avdol says
"This is our guy" I say holding him by the collar
"Now I happen to have a knife in my pocket and I'm sure you wouldn't like me to slit your throat would you? Probably not so be a good little peasant and remove your stand" I say taking out my knife and holding it against his throat. Everyone stared shocked at my sudden personality change
"Didn't I say to remove your stand. Are you too dumb to understand what I'm saying?" I ask as I press the knife into his throat. Blood now dripping from the wound
"Jesus" Kakyoin mutters
You made me look stupid earlier when my plan failed
He didn't put his stand away
"Well strike 3 and you're out" I say slitting his throat. I dropped him and he hit the ground. I then noticed blood all over me
"Ugh, I liked this outfit" I mutter. I then notice everyone staring at me slightly horrified
"What? Oh do you want me to heal you Jotaro?" I ask walking over as I pull out my stand
"Remind me never to cross her" Joseph mutters to Kakyoin as I heal Jotaro up
"May I ask what that was?" Avdol asks
"Well earlier my plan failed and it made me look stupid so now we're even" I say smiling. We all then felt the plane tip.
"Something's wrong. I could be imagining it, but it seems like the plane is flying crooked. It is crooked
I-It can't be!" Joseph says running to the front. We all follow after him
"Move" Jotaro says pushing the women out of the way. I laugh and walk in behind him
"We've been had!" Joseph yells
"Their tongues have been ripped out. He had already killed the pilots?" Jotaro says
"I'll be the pilot" I say
"No" Avdol says
"It's falling. The autopilot's been destroyed, as well. This plane is going to crash!" Joseph yells
"No!" I yell
"I'll have to land this plane. I have experience with propeller planes, but Jotaro, this is my third time. Have you ever heard of someone being in a crashing plane three times?" Joseph asks. We all sigh
"I'm never riding in a plane with you ever again" Jotaro says
"I second that" I say
~Time Skip~
We were all now in Hong Kong since it was closest to where the plane crashed
"Hey, big guy!" A man says. We all turned
"Are you guys tourists?" He asks
"And so what if we are?" I ask with a glare
"Want some rice porridge? If you're in Hong Kong, you gotta try dim sum or rice porridge. We have hot cola too" He says
"Rice porridge, eh? Not bad. Did you know, Y/n, JoJo? Unlike in Japan, rice porridge us a staple food in Hong Kong. I'll have it the popular way, with pork and a century egg." Kakyoin says
"Coming right up!" The man says
"Then I'll have-" Avdol began
"Hey! What are you guys trying to eat? We're going to my friend's shop" Joseph says
"Hey, dandy guy. Want to try some Hong Kong hot cola?" The man asks
"Hot?! Everybody knows that colors supposed to be cold" Joseph says
"Old man, who were you calling?" Jotaro asks
"Hm? Oh, I'll explain everything when we get to the shop. We need to work out a plan that'll get us to Egypt as safely and quickly as possible." Joseph says
"We could always just fly again" I say
"And get more people killed, I suggest not" Joseph says
"Mister Joestar is right, we cannot allow any more innocent civilians to be hurt. The quickest would be by plane, but.. look at how that turned out" Avdol says. We walked to the restaurant and were now sitting
"It's impossible to get to Egypt by plane. If we encounter another stand user like the last one on a commercial flight, we're sure to cause a disaster that will harm many people. We'll have to get to Egypt by either land or sea." Joseph says
"But if we fail to meet Dio within fifty days.." Avdol began. We all went quiet as we knew what would happen to Holly
"We'll get there" I mutter
"I agree. If we had stayed on that plane, we'd probably be in Cairo by now" Kakyoin says
"I'm aware of that. But it's too soon to worry about it. A hundred years ago, Jules Verne wrote a story in which the protagonist traveled around the world in 80 days, traveling 40,000 kilometers (About 24,855 miles) . That was the age of trains and steamboats. Even without a plane, in fifty days, we'll be able to travel the 10,000 kilometers
(6,214 miles) to Egypt. As for the route" Joseph says pulling out a map
"I say we go by sea. We'll charter a suitably-sized boat, go around the Malay peninsula and cross the Indian Ocean. It'll be the Silk Road of the sea." Joseph says
"I believe that is best, as well. If we go by land, borders will be a hassle, and we'd have to cross the Himalayas and a desert. There are too many dangers." Avdol says
"I trust Avdol so we should do it" I say
"I haven't been to any or those places using either route, so I can't say anything. I'll leave it up to you two." Kakyoin says
"Same" Jotaro says
"Then it's decided. The greatest danger will be the stand users that Dio sends against us. We'll have to do our best to get to Egypt without being spotted" Joseph says. Kakyoin messed with the tea pot and Jotaro looks curiously
"This is a sign to let them know we want more tea. If you do this in Hong Kong, they'll bring you seconds. Also, when they pour cup into your tea. This means thank you" Kakyoin says tapping the table
"Excuse me, do you have a moment? I'm a tourist from France, and I'm having a hard time with the kanji on the menu. Would you please help me out?" A man with white hair asks
"You're annoying. Go away" Jotaro says. I kick him in the shin
"Don't mind him, he's a little grumpy when he's angry. Of course we can help you" I say with a sweet smile. Jotaro gives me a dirty look and I give him a smirk
"Thank you, my dear beauty" He says flirting with me. My eye twitches
"I take that back. Figure it out on your own" I say crossing my arms
"Now now, it's fine" Joseph says holding his hand out and takes the menu from the man
"I've been to Hong Kong many times, so I can atleast read the Kanji on the menu. Why don't you join us? So what did you want to order? Food with shrimp, duck, sharkfin, and mushrooms?" Joseph asks. He then flags a waiter
"We'll have this, this, this, and this, too. Oh, and this." Joseph says. We all just stare
"This looks like food with beef, fish, clams, and frog, but" Avdol begins
"Indeed. This is rather different" Kakyoin says slightly disgusted
"I knew this would happen" Jotaro mutters. The man stares shocked and Joseph laughs
"Well, it doesn't matter. It's on me! It doesn't matter what you order. It's all delicious!" Joseph says
"I'll kill you if you're wrong" I say with a glare. Joseph sweat drops and stops laughing. I start laughing
"I'm kidding" I say which causes him to nervously laugh
"Probably" I say with a smirk.
"Ahaha, all right, everyone, dig in" He says. We all begin eating and it's actually really good
"Well? It's pretty good, isn't it?" Joseph asks
"Well they've certainly taken a lot of time to prepare this. Look, these carrots. They're shaped like stars. It reminds me of something" The man says. We all stare shocked
"Wait don't you have a birth mark of a star?" I whisper to Jotaro
"Yes, you dumb woman" He says
"That's right. Somekne I know had this exact mark on their neck" The man says
"You.. are you another" Kakyoin begins. The bowl starts shaking and a sword appears
"Mister Joestar, look out!" Avdol yells
"It's a stand!" Joseph yells. Avdol flips the table
My food
"Magician's Red!" He yells as his stand comes out. He throws fire at the opponents stand but it doesn't work.
"My stand holds the Chariot card! Silver Chariot! Mohammed Avdol, it appears that you want to die first. I've made a fire clock on that table! I will kill you by the time that clock burns to twelve!" The man yells
