You and Joseph returned to the group, watching the old woman slowly approach. As she got closer, you started to feel anxiety swelling up inside you, breaking out in a cold sweat. Why did you feel so nervous? Why was this random old woman making your heart pound, and your hands sweat?
The woman stopped in front of your group, giving a light bow, which the other crusaders returned politely.
The old woman smiled, looking between the people in the group, “You seem to be travelers. With this fog, it’s dangerous to leave the town now. There are many cliffs, you know.” she paused, “I run a little bed and breakfast. If you’d like, why not stay there for the night? I’ll make it cheap.”
“We finally met a normal person!” said Polnareff, smiling at the woman.
Soon after, police arrived to take the corpse away. You and the crusaders stood, watching them.
“There’s a strong possibility that a Stand user is hiding somewhere in this town.” said Kakyoin, “This thick fog also gives them the upper hand. We cannot let our guard down at all tonight.”
“Wait, are we seriously staying the night here?” you asked, brow furrowing. You turned, grabbing Joseph's shoulder, “let’s just leave. If we drive slow, it won't be bad! We’ll just be careful!”
Joseph shook his head. “Let’s just wait for the fog to clear. We can always leave later tonight if we need.”
“But.. that old woman…” you trailed off, shaking your head.
“... even without anyone attacking us, this town is really creepy.” said polnareff, looking over his shoulder at some of the people passing by.
The old woman led the group over to a fairly large building, “come now, Mr. Joestar, That is my hotel.” she said, smiling sweetly, “I shall lead the way, please come with me.” she gave a little bow, “This hotel is small, but about 20 years ago, one of the 007 films was filmed here, and John Lennon from The Beatles even stayed here once.”
“What? Really?” asked Polnareff, grinning excitedly,
“No, not at all.” The old woman said with the same sweet smile.
“Huh?”
“But it’s still a very nice hotel. She said, slowly heading over to the entrance, “There are currently no other guests. Would meat for dinner be alright? Or would you prefer fish?
Anxiety over this woman was still swirling in your stomach. You didn't want to go inside that hotel, but you certainly did not want to leave the crusaders either… you were stuck.
“Hold it, old lady.” Jotaro suddenly said. “You just said ‘Joestar,’ didnt you? How’d you know that name?”
The woman went still for a few moments, “Come now, sir. That person there just said “Mr. Joestar” a moment ago” she said, turning to face the group again with a smile.
“Huh? Me?” asked Polnareff, thinking hard, scratching his cheek, “Well, I guess I might have.” He muttered.
“You did, sir.” She said quickly, her smile seeming to grow, “When you’ve been in customer service for many years, you learn to memorize people’s names quickly. So I’m sure of it.” she said, laughing.
Jotaro was still staring the woman down… was he suspicious of her too? Did he have the same feeling of anxiety as you? It was impossible to tell.
“By the way, ma’am, what happened to your left hand?” asked Polnareff, pointing.
You hadn't noticed until now, but the woman's entire hand was wrapped in a bandage, leading well up her arm.
“Oh this?” she asked, laughing lightly and waving her hand, “I just burned it a little? It might be because of my old age, but I accidentally spilled boiling water on it.”
“Age? What are you talking about?” asked polnareff, flirting playfully with the woman, “you only look to be about 40. Maybe I’ll ask you out on a date.” he said, chuckling.
The woman laughing, seeming to enjoy it, “Please don’t tease me so, sir.”
They seemed to be having just a swell time together, laughing between themselves… but somehow, you still couldn't help but feel uneasy about the situation.
The group was led into the hotel by the Woman. It really was quite lavish on the inside. The lobby had a tall ceiling, and the tile looked magnificent… What was a hotel like this doing in such a strange town?
Polnareff started to sign his name in the guest book.
“Oh, this doesn’t look too bad.” said Joseph looking around.
Polnareff handed the pen over to Kakyoin. “Kakyoin, here.” Polnareff turned to the woman behind the counter, “My autograph’s worth as much as Lennon’s” he teased with a grin.
Kakyoin turned, handing off the pen to Jotaro, “here”
“I’m Paul-nareff, after all” Polnareff finished his joke with a laugh, “Make sure you take care of it.”
“My, my… I will do just that.” said the woman, laughing lightly.
Jotaro handed you the pen, and you nodded, looking down at the guest book.
Joseph Joestar
Noriaki Kakyoin
Jean Pierre Polnareff
Qtaro Kujo
Wait, what?
You read the names again, staring hard at where Jotaro wrote his name. So maybe he really was more suspicious of this woman than he was letting on. Why else would he change his name in the guestbook? Well… if Jotaro was changing his name, then you would too!
You added your name at the bottom.
(y/n) Kujo
You closed the book, glancing over to see Jotaro had been peering over your shoulder with knit brows. “Oh, uh-” your cheeks went red. Maybe you shouldn't have used his last name… was he mad?
he turned away, muttering, “Good grief”
But… you could have sworn you saw him blushing.
As soon as you stepped away from the guest book, the old woman spoke, “Well, then, If everyone is finished, I will show you to your rooms.”
