Miguel stood in front of Doughnut. Behind Doughnut is the American Flag, bright as it can be.
"What?" asked Doughnut.
"I have another deal for you!" smiled Miguel.
"Which is?"
"If you join us, we will give your country an industrial makeover!"
Doughnut facepalms. "That's still what a colonizer does, asshole!"
"Look... Trumpet? I am tired! I am so tired of trying to help your country!"
"Why are you so obsessed with helping our country!?"
"Because if Stefan somehow survived and lands on your country, and you choose to keep it as a secret, we're all dead! Because if an alien creature lands on your country and you keep it as a secret, we're all dead! Because-!"
"Those are not the reasons!"
Miguel facepalms and paced left and right.
"What is the reason, President Reaper?"
"BECAUSE NO ONE ELSE EXCEPT ME CAN SAVE THE WORLD!!!"
"'Can?'"
Miguel sighs. "'Should...'"
"And why is that?"
"Because the reason why the world has problems right now is because of me! Because every Stand-User Josuke and Lord fought is because of one action that changed everyone's fates. I fought Salvi... I was never meant to fight Salvi, Trumpet... Now people are dead because of me! Eradicator... Stefan... Monster Emperor... All because I fought Salvi! I need to redeem myself!"
"You don't need to redeem yourself anymore, JoJo... You already proved yourself as a hero..."
"But look what I've done! I got so many people killed, Doughnut! People are dying right now because of me! Only I can show them the way... The way for a better world! I have to be better... So I have to make this world better!"
"Really, now?"
"I'm a Superhero! I have to save the world!"
"So... here you are... trying to search for a purpose..."
"What!?"
"This melancholy... It stems not from the fact that you're a Superhero... You see... When your goal was to plant a hundred trees and you already planted them, set a new goal for yourself and make a thousand more... You lack any purpose... The world doesn't need you anymore, Miguel JoJo. You are no longer the hero of this story."
"I didn't say that I am the hero of this story! I said that I need to do something for the world! Something bad will happen, Trumpet! And I have to be there to protect it! Because only I am powerful enough to protect this world! Only I can save this world! Only I can make a world above suffering!"
"You're starting to sound like the same villains you killed, JoJo."
"No, I'm not!"
"Yes, you are!"
"I..." Miguel hissed. "AM... THE GODDAMNED REAPER!!! I KILL MY ENEMIES AND THE WORLD'S PROBLEMS!!! THAT IS MY GODDAMNED JOB!!!"
"You know... The irony of your name... 'The Reaper...' Each action you've had has consequences for yourself and others... You quite literally reap what you sow... Actually... figurative sense... Is it literal or not literal enough?
Whatever!
You're broken, Miguel JoJo.
A foolish warrior that the world doesn't need... A weapon with no purpose... Meant to be thrown away... Get it, Miguel JoJo? We don't need you anymore."
