III. | The Curse of Dio
The group was still staring at the unconscious mind controlled ginger. Jotaro couldn't get over the flesh bud
"What the.. That wriggling piece of flesh looks like a spider. So that's why he became Dio's minion?" Jotaro asked
"It is a 'flesh bud', made of Dio's own cells. And it extends all the way to the young man's brain. This modest-sized flesh bud exerts power over his entire psyche" Muhammad explained. Y/n nodded
"In other words, the flesh bud functions to elicit emotion, like an antenna that channels.. Dio's charisma! The kind of charisma that drives a man to follow a dictator, to put his faith into a nefarious cult leader. This hoy idolized Dio and swore his loyalty to him in the process! Dio uses his charisma, his intoxicating charm, to overwhelm and control. It's how he ordered Kakyoin to kill us" Joseph said
"Bitch are you a mind reader? Because I don't think Jotaro ever said his name" Y/n told Joseph. Muhammad leaned close to Y/n and whispered in her ear
"I believe the Joestars can telepathically communicate with one another" He whispered. Y/n's eyes widened and she nodded in agreement before looking at her husband
"You're so right" She said
"Okay, slice him open and pull it out" Jotaro said, desperate to save the ginger. Joseph shook his head
"The brain is too delicate. If he so much as flinches, we'll cause irreparable damage" Joseph explained
"Jojo. You must listen to me now. About four months ago, in Cairo, I too met Dio!" Muhammad explained getting Jotaro's attention
"I am a fortune teller by trade, it is how I met Y/n actually, but that's besides the point. I had just returned to my shop in Khan Khalili when, under a full moon I saw him.. standing quietly atop the stairs to my shop's second floor, with eyes so cold it felt as if he was piercing my heart. His hair looked like spun gold, his skin, alabaster, almost transparent. Most of all, he emanated a strange, almost inhuman sensuality" Muhammad began
"I had heard about him from Mr. Joestar, so I knew at once. It was Dio, back from the depths of the Atlantic! That's when the terror sunk in. His words had managed to calm my soul. They were imbued with a dangerous sweetness. It was horrifying! I ran for my life. I didn't dare fight him. I was lucky. Had Mr. Joestar not warned me, had I not been able to jump out that window and fall into a maze of familiar streets, escaping with my life, I would have ended up like this young man, a pawn of Dio, dominated by another flesh bud" Muhammad finished. Y/n nodded
"And, like the boy, you'd have died in a few years, your brain devoured" Joseph explained
"Died? Not so fast. Kakyoin's.. still alive!" Jotaro declared as his Stand appeared. It was a buff purple man. "I'll pull that thing out with my Stand!"
"Wait, Jotaro!" Joseph yelled as he stood up. Jotaro had put his hands on Kakyoin's face
"Back off, old man! I'll pull it out fast, with no damage to his brain. My Stand has the speed and accuracy to grab a bullet mid-flight" Jotaro explained as his Stand's hand approached the flesh bud in Kakyoin's head. Y/n squirmed as she felt uncomfortable just looking at that thing
"Don't! That flesh bud is alive! There's a reason why part of it is outside the skin. The same reason why even a skill surgeon can't remove it!" Joseph yelled as Jotaro's Stand grabbed the flesh bud. It immediately attacked Jotaro and went under his skin. Y/n screamed as she jumped on Muhammad's back, using him as a shield
"Shit!" Joseph yelled out
"The flesh shot out a tentacle!" Muhammad stated as Y/n was connected to Muhammad's back like a cat clawing a curtain. "Curses! Let go of it, Jojo!"
"It'll infiltrate the brain of anyone who tries to remove it!" Joseph tried to explain. Suddenly Kakyoin woke up
"You.." He began
"Stay still, Kakyoin. One mistake, and you're a dead man" Jotaro commanded. The flesh bud had made it to Jotaro's neck. Y/n kept screaming in pure disgust
"Shut up bitch!" Jotaro yelled at her
"Don't call me a bitch!" She screamed back
"Let go now, Jojo! It's reached your face!" Muhammad yelled as he went to approach the teen. Joseph held out his hand and stopped him
"Wait, Avdol! This is my grandson we're talking about here. His body may be under siege, but he'll remain cool as a cucumber. He and his Stand are solid as a rock! He's more powerful and precise than a machine!" Joseph yelled. Then, Jotaro had successfully extracted the alien from Kakyoin. Then, his Stand had yanked the flesh bud out of Jotaro's skin and tied the bitch up, of course it broke and went flying. Joseph used his Hamon and killed the little invasive shit with a karate chop. "Overdrive!"
The thing disintegrated and Y/n sighed in relief. Kakyoin sat up and pressed his fingers against his forehead
"Why?" Kakyoin asked the emo teenager. "Why did you risk your own life to save me?"
"Well.. can't say I really know why myself" Jotaro said as he looked away
♡☆♡☆♡☆
Currently Holly was tending to Kakyoin's wounds. Well, in fact she had just finished
"There ya go" She told the ginger
"Thank you very much" Kakyoin told the woman
"Kakyoin, wasn't it? I think you're overdue for some rest. Why don't you stay with us tonight? Papa, go get his futon ready" Holly told her father. Y/n snickered as Joseph complained
"Huh? Why me? I've never even liked the idea of sleeping on the floor! Holly, get that futon out of my room and give me a real bed!" Joseph complained like a child. Holly wasn't having it
"Papa, you're in Japan, you should get accustomed to the Japanese way of life" Holly said as she tapped the floor
"Yeah, Joseph" Y/n taunted as she laughed at him. Joseph glared at her
"Oh, and call me 'Seiko'" Holly said
"What?" Joseph asked, not believing what he was hearing
"My friends here think my name is 'Holy', so they call me 'Seiko' for 'holy child'" She said as she smiled and clapped her hands
"Aww that's so sweet, my parents named me while they were drunk" Y/n said
"Oh my God, really?" Kakyoin asked
"Yeah, we're not on speaking terms anymore" Y/n explained
"I am so sorry" Kakyoin said sympathetically. Muhammad shook his head
"Her parents no longer talk to her because she burnt their house down after they took her out of their will, and they took her out of the will because she blew up their car" Muhammad explained. Kakyoin's sympathy disappeared
"What?! I was justified! They were horrible parents!" Y/n said
"Your parents handed you everything on a silver platter. They're extremely rich. That's why they paid for our entire wedding" Muhammad said
"They didn't pay for our wedding because they were rich, they paid for our wedding because they wanted me gone" Y/n deadpanned
"Enough! I don't give a shit!" Joseph yelled
"Die you fucking american!" Y/n yelled out before she karate kicked his ass into the next room
☆♡☆♡☆♡
It was the next morning. The sun was shining, the birds were singing, the flowers were blooming. It was a beautiful day
"Holly! Hey, Holly. Hey, where are you? Look at these! These are Jotaro's pants! Where are mine? They fit fine, but look at them! I can't wear these! Hey, Holly!" Joseph yelled out for the entire manor to hear
"Shut the fuck up you twat!" Y/n yelled back
"No! You shut the fuck up!" Joseph yelled
"Both of you shut the fuck up!" Jotaro yelled from another portion of the manor. Y/n howled like a dog as Muhammad walked in. He had just returned from his morning walk
"Why are you howling?" Muhammad asked his wife
"I'm asserting my dominance" She explained. He nodded
"How is that going for you?" He asked
"Quite well, I think those men are understanding I'm the alpha" She told him with a straight face. Muhammad turned away as he struggled not to laugh
"What's so funny, Muhammad?" She asked her husband
"Oh, nothing, darling" He said as he bit his lip to suppress his laughter. She stared at him like he was prey. She jumped up into the air and went to pounce on him, but his instincts kicked in and he ducked causing Y/n to miss and go through the wall. She landed outside in the water
"Man, fuck!" She cried out. Muhammad quickly rushed over to check on her, but her attention was elsewhere now. She had noticed a spoon
"Are you okay?" He asked
"A spoon" She said
"A spoon?" He asked confused
"A spoon" She repeated before pointing at the spoon. She stood up and walked over to it. Muhammad followed behind her. The door it was in front of was open, so the married couple went to investigate. Inside revealed a kitchen utensils mess. It was every housewife's worst nightmare
"Oh, look this is how our kitchen looks when you use it" Muhammad teased
"Man why don't you just die" She responded. Muhammad chuckled
"I believe you've seen that in our future" He replied
"That's not funny" She responded with a deadpan. Suddenly as if there was a ghost, the fridge opened some more revealing a pale feminine hand
"Oh hell no! I don't do ghosts. Fuck that shit" She responded as she went to walk out, but Muhammad grabbed her hand and forced her to approach the mysterious hand alongside him. It was Holly's hand. She was on the ground, unconscious
"Holly no!" Y/n screamed. Muhammad ran over and brought the woman into his arms. She was sweating like crazy and looked like dog shit. She was panting like she had just run a marathon. Muhammad put his hand on Holly's forehead
"She's burning up with a fever.. An illness?" He asked Y/n. Then, thorns appeared on Holly's neck
"That's a.." Y/n trailed off
"No.. It can't be!" Muhammad yelled
