The Ludicrous Escapade Pt.3

Breaking the Joestar Curse

"Wow, Wamuu! You actually stopped the car from crashing!" You looped your arms around him in a hug. Not that you doubted his strength. It was just a miracle that a vehicle that had been about to crash, with a Joestar on board, actually managed to be saved before it happened.

Wamuu returned the embrace with one arm while ruffling the hair on your head with the other. "I did only as you asked, (Y/N). Though I am actually quite surprised as well..."

"That's great and all, but do you think you could help us out, here?" Hermès slowly stood up, staring at the copious amounts of empty shells littering the floor of the car. "Wait... I think I understand what's going to happen here. Predators! The snails are getting killed off by their natural predators! We have to get out of this car!"

"Was that... Emporio?" You had seen his foot being dragged behind some bushes. You could sense Donatello nearby as well. Was he planning to hold the kid hostage? You wanted to chase after him, but leaving the other two in their current state was probably a bad idea. So you went to open the car door for them.

Wamuu put a hand in front of you. "Forgive me, but they seem to be contagious. You should maintain your distance, (Y/N). I am merely your Stand, so I will be find." The Pillar Man hoisted the two women out of the car.

Hermès swatted at a few of the beetles flying out of the automobile. "Since snails are so slow, their predators can just crawl into the shell and suck out their flesh! These bugs are called shell wearers!"

You took a small step closer to where Donatello was hiding. "There are a lot of bugs. So the best course of action would probably be..." You took off Kars hat.

"Indeed." Without argue, Wamuu switched out the ring for the hat.

When the Ultimate Being materialized, spotting the bugs, he flipped his luscious locks over one shoulder. "I see. That must be why you switched." He let his arm form into a few birds that swooped through the air, grabbing the insects with their beak before swallowing them down whole. When the initial swarm was disposed of, the birds remained perched on a nearby tree, watching for any more shell wearers.

"Sweet!" Hermès slowly crawled forward. "Guess we won't need to worry about those things anymore."

"Now we just need to get Emporio back and to take care of Versus." Jolyne had already been extending her extremely droopy string in the kid's direction. "Emporio! If you can hear me, tug on the rope! Grab onto it!"

Kars pulled you out of the way as an American Football player charged out of the bushes, the rest of the team following. With Stone Free having wrapped around the player's thigh on accident, Jolyne was dragged away.

"Perhaps we should be the one to take care of this..." Kars was doubtful that the others were in a state to be of use.

Donatello smirked, his hands covered in dirt. "The Super Bowl in 1974... I dug up the Miami Dolphins runner back, Larry Csonka. He got thirty-three runs, running over one hundred forty-five yards! A real MVP, that one. Jolyne Cujoh, enjoy being dragged over the touchdown line."

"Sure... but are you planning to try and drag me away, too?" You stepped into view of Dio's son.

"(Y-Y/N)!" Donatello scooted away a bit, seeing a few snails on a nearby plant. He grit his teeth and narrowed his eyes at you. "Are you really going to stop me from being happy? What's so wrong about me wanting to live a good life?!"

"Listen." You crouched down in front of him. Kars remained standing behind you, arms crossed over his chest, exuding a menacing aura. "Getting that disc won't make you happy. Following the plan that Dio made won't even be possible for you now, anyway."
