   ' So, now we're in Karachi. We're getting closer to Egypt. Also, I can't remember but how in the world did Joseph manage to get this carriage? '

   " Hey, a donor kebab joint. Let's stop and get something to eat. "

I looked at Joseph and he did look really hungry. He stopped the carriage and jumped out to talk with the man about the kebabs. 

   " Excuse me sir I'd like six of those. "

   " That'll be thousand yen. "

   " A thousand yen? Really? Don't mock me now that's far too much for a handful of kebabs. "

   "  How much would you buy them for? "

   " Make it 250 yen for six. "

   " If I sold them for that cheap I would be out on the streets with my wife and seven children starving to death. "

   " Then maybe I'll just buy them somewhere else. "

   " Okay, friend you win. I very much like foreigners, I'll sell you six for 700 yen. "

I turned away from Joseph and his bargaining and seen a store I could sell the jewelry. I got out of the carriage and held the bag of jewelry at my side.

   " I'm going to go exchange this stuff for cash. If Joseph doesn't get a good price let me know and I'll bargain for the real price it should be. "

Jotaro nodded and Kakyoin got out of the carriage and decided to come with me into the jewelry store. We entered the store and there was a lot of expensive jewelry inside. A consultant asked me what my business was and I told her I wanted to exchange some old jewelry that I cleaned up for money. She asked to see the jewelry and I set the bag in front of her and pulled out the necklaces, and rings. I kept one of the bracelets and wore it on my wrist. It was a simple gold bracelet with a thin line that curled around the diamond in the middle. She looked back up at me.

   " I can give you 840256 yen. Is that fine with you? "

   " Perfectly fine. I'll take it. "

She nodded and took the jewelry and placed it in a tray and gave e the money. I thanked her again and walked outside with Kakyoin at my hip. 

   " Looks like you're rich now. Would you mind lending a poor would a little yen? "

   " I would mind. Sorry, Noriaki but you're not getting me with that cute act. "

   " So, you think it's cute? "

A small heat made its way to my face and I turned to him with a small eye squint. 

   " Now, I'm stealing your kebab. "

Joseph was walking back to the carriage and gave each of us a kebab and I saw him flinch a bit. I turned towards the carriage and seen Enyaba's eyes open. 

   " Holy crap! Turn around! That old lady's awake! "

Jotaro and Polnareff turned around to Enyaba and when I took a closer look I could see her sweating. It looked like she was either really worried or scared. 

   " I-I haven't said anything to them I swear. Why are you here? What could you possibly want from me? Did you actually think I would tell them about the secret of Lord Dio's stand? I shall always be his loyal servant. "

We didn't know who she was talking about. We all looked around and noticed that the only person near was the person we bought the kebabs from. He pulled his hood down and took his sunglasses off, revealing a man with amber eyes and black hair. I looked back at ENyaba and saw something crawling out of her eyelids. It looked like a long worm and it made me stop eating the kebab and hold my hand over my mouth. She screamed as they exploded from her and started destroying the carriage one by one. Everyone jumped out as the horse ran off and the carriage fell to the ground.
