JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Grimm

Chapter IX: Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap Part I

Arthur teared up after burying Ricardo in the grave next to his Father's. Ventura patted him on the back, as Arthur wiped his tears. The two stood there and stared at the headstone.

"Faith... not anger..." said Arthur to himself.

"14 Pesos, please," smiled the woman wearing a Jollibee uniform. JoJo paid her the exact amount and was given a chicken bucket with a lot of fries, burgers, and mashed potatoes. 

Arthur walked away without thanking her.

"Uh... sorry... Thank you," said Ventura, putting his hand on his chest and bowing.

"Thank you! Come again!" smiled the woman.

The woman gave him a soft smile, and he nodded smiling.

The two ate the delicious chicken bucket. Filled with spices and with the smell of oil and gravy, the two munched their way into happiness. The mashed potato tasted splendid, and the fries were amazing, both having an earthy but salty taste. The burgers were also rather tasty.

"Oh my God! Yes!" laughed Arthur. "It's like Chicken Heaven! My favorite food is Fried Chicken, by the way! Oh ho ho!" he laughed. "Burgers are amazing, too!"

Arthur dips his burger into the gravy and takes a big bite out of it.

"Okay... but addressing the big 8000-pound blue whale in the room..." said Ventura. "What's the Stand Arrow for? I've read in Ricardo's books that Stands come from those Arrows. Once it 'chooses' you, you gain a new Stand Ability from it. But why does Funny Valentino, or Damaso, want it so bad?"

"To gain a new ability! Use it for his evil means and conquer the whole world!" said Arthur, as he bit into a chicken drumstick.

"The President is all the way over at Metro San Diego!" shouted Ventura. "And I heard that he's going to have a huge speech later this evening! We have to go there, JoJo!"

"Sure thing, Ventura!" smiled Arthur. "We need a ride, first..."

The two then went out and saw a parking lot full of cars. Arthur uses his Stand to reach inside and open the car's locks.

"Get in," said Arthur.

"We don't have keys!" replied Ventura.

Arthur then used his Stand to attach the two wires and charge the car.

*ch ch ch ch ch vrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrmmmmm*

"Isn't this stealing?" asked Ventura.

"No," said Arthur. "We'll return it safe and sound!"

"Okay... let's go save the Philippines!" shouted Ventura. "And!!! The whole world!!!"

"Hey... let's make a stop here, Ventura," said Arthur, stopping by the cabin they were once in. Arthur enters inside and sees that on the table in the dining room is a tape recorder.

"Ricardo and I grew up in the suburbs of The Union, a City in San Diego. There, we were always beaten by our father. The two of us were inseparable... But, I always knew that I was a coward while he was always the one who would defend me from bullies... That's why he won her, Arthur... That's why he won your Mother. When your Father was being killed by Wham, I ran away, Arthur. Ever since then, I've been running away from the aswangs. I even changed my name. I tell you, Arthur... Don't be the coward I was... Don't be the coward I was... be like your Father, Arthur. Be more like your Father."
