It was a beautiful day outside...

Johnny couldn't help but admire the way the leaves fell from the trees, and the songs which the birds sang to each other was music to his ears.

Johnny had always been fond of nature, and today he was in an even better mood than usual. This was his first day at U.A. High, the most prestigious hero academy in the country, if not the world, and he was going to make it count.

His full name is Johnathan Noriaki Kujo, and he is the son of Jotaro Kujo, one of the most powerful stand users of all time. While his father may seem like an ordinary marine biologist, Johnny is aware of the significant role that his father played in history. Jotaro killed DIO, their family's number one enemy, and thwarted his plans for world domination.

How many kids could say that their father saved the world?

Then there was his older sister, Jolyne. She helped stop DIO's right hand man, Enrico Pucci, from taking over the frickin' mercenary universe. Hell, if it weren't for her, everybody might've been mindless slaves who already know how they are going to die before it happened. Then there was his great-grandfather, Joseph Joestar, Uncle Josuke, and Uncle Giorno.

Needless to say, Johnny had a great deal of pride in his family.

As he was walking towards U.A., Johnny couldn't help but notice the pink girl that was checking him out. If she was trying to be subtle, she wasn't doing a very good job. She was standing on the other side of the crosswalk, looking at him through the corner of her eye.

Johnny knew he had inherited his father's looks. He looked practically identical, save for a few minor differences. For instance, he wasn't nearly as big as his father is. His hair was a dark shade of brown, and he had longer hair, similar to how Joseph used to wear his. However, the resemblance is there where it counts, and now Johnny has what his father refers to as the "Joestar Curse", which is the ability to attract unwanted romantic attention from complete strangers. In that regard, Johnny was similar to his father, and he really doesn't like all of the unwanted attention. However, he is usually only rude as a last resort.

Or when someone really pisses him off.

In this case, the girl only seemed to be checking him out, so he didn't really mind. He did notice that she was wearing a U.A. uniform, maybe she'll end up being one of his classmates. As Johnny reached the gate for the academy, his heart swelled up with a nervous excitement.

This was the place where he would become a hero. This is the place where he would carry on the family legacy (hopefully, he wouldn't have to fight any pillar men). This building is his future.

"Oi, you forgot something."

Johnny turned around only to have a tie thrown into his face. He pulled it off to see his sister standing there with a bemused expression on her face.

"You're never gonna be a hero of you can't take care of yourself, dumbass."

"Rude! Did prison harden you or what?"

Jolyne smiled.

"No, fighting an evil Catholic priest with a hard on for neon vampires did that."

Johnny let out a chuckle.

"Where would I be without you, Sis?"

"Probably in a ditch somewhere, hey, good luck today."

"You to-, thank you."

"Ha! I already finished school."

"Just go home! I'll see you later."

"Get lost, or I'll start coddling you."
