JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Grimm

Chapter XXXVIII: Gold Experience Requiem~Sono Chi No Sadame~

Arthur JoJo is dead... but...

With Golden spots all over, a yellow body, a violet belt and chest, silver eyes and a muscular body...

...Gold Experience Requiem stood before 

"I'll accelerate time... I thought that that ability was useless... But maybe if I accelerate time now... I'll see what you can do," said Salvi.

"You don't wanna do that, Salvi," said Miguel, still with a hardened look.

Salvi saw the Crusaders looking up to them.

"I just accelerated time..." said Salvi. "You kill me almost immediately. I know what your ability is... But if I don't attack you... The ability doesn't activate..."

Salvi turns to Anne.

Miguel flinches as his eyes widened with rage.

"SALVI... NOOOOOOOOO!!!"

"Wait... It still happens!?" wondered Jessica. "Wait... Prometheus told me this would happen... That's it! Wait... if the Universe is destroyed and time continues... I wouldn't have a time remnant... There would be no more timelines left for me to have my consciousness go in in case of failure... Or... is that... my fate?"

"Anne Zeppeli was always meant to die..." thought Salvi. "She's a Zeppeli after all."

"MUDA!!!"

*SPLAT*

Miguel, with a poker face, stared at Anne with a hole in her chest.

Anne trembles in pain and vomits blood.

Miguel landed and grabbed her.

Tears fell from his face.

"Anne..." he said. His voice and breath went shaky. His hair goes back to normal as the energies around him disappear. "Anne..." he began to sob.

The Ark of the Covenant had chosen a new host...

He began to cry.

"Anne..." he whispered.

"As per my vision..." said Salvi. "Time to lay waste to this Universe... my son..."

"No..." he said, holding her.

"I love you," she whispered, smiling. "I don't want you... to become what they wanted you to become... Please..."

"I love you, too," he said. "You aren't going to die..."

"Please..." said Anne. "Please... you're the hero now... promise me that you'll act like it..."

"No, no, no, no, no..." he sobbed. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

*BOOM*

For a split second, Miguel's eyes and hair went silver. A nuclear explosion occurred, killing everyone.

"This is different," thought Jessica. The explosion was so powerful that it destroyed some of the mantle.

"Jessica..." said a voice. "This is part of the new timeline... Run, Jessica... before the world ends..."

"I'm gonna die..." she thought. "This whole time, I was the biggest asshole in the team... I didn't care what other people thought... what other people felt... Now..."
