A man reaches over as he grabs the hand of his dear friend with darkish blue hair. He feels nothing but pain and agony as his body was torn in two but it didn't stop him from his goal. Golden lightning courses from him to the almost lifeless body of none other than Johnathan Joestar.
"Jojo! Use it! This is the last of my hamon! Inherit it! Deep pass OVERDRIVE!"
Another man stood there menacingly as he was about to crush the top of the man before him until he was then dragged away. The man's vision was going dark, he gave up the last of his life essence to his friend.
"Jojo, I have given you the last of my life's essence."
His eyes darken but then opens them once more to see Johnathan, Speedwagon, and pocco standing around him.
"Baron Zeppeli! Speak to me..."
The man gasps for air as Johnathan holds him close. Tears glazed down Johnathan's cheeks as he watches his freind suffer.
"This is all so terribly wrong. Without you beside me, without your wisdom and guidance, How will I make my way through this world?"
The man gasps more as his voice now raspy, he holds his friends' hand.
"Jojo, you simply must pull yourself together."
The three gasped at their dying friend.
"You've no time to waste now. You know what lies ahead."
His breathing begins to shallow out. Johnathan can't help but cry.
"Now go, leave me. Settle accounts with Dio. But first of all, you must destroy the mask."
Zeppeli coughs up blood from his restraining lungs.
"Zeppeli!"
Johnathan cries out to his friend as Speedwagon holds Pocco close as he cries on him. Johnathan holds him still, close to his chest.
"Please don't cry. No tears. I am satisfied. I have lived my destiny."
They all listen close to him.
"When I was young, I was very happily married, but to pursue the mask, I left my family behind. However, I've never regretted the choice I made. I accept it completely. And it's good. In the end, I can see that my choice was the right one.
Zeppeli looks up at Johnathan as he glows golden around him, zeppeli's life essence surrounding him.
"Jojo, you are my deliverance."
"Baron Zeppeli..."
The man chuckles to himself, though he's in pain, he couldn't help it.
"It seems to me that in you, I have found both a best friend and new family. Jojo, through you, I will live on forever. My son....joj..."
The vision darkens once and for all. A voice breaks through the silence.
"It's your time, Nipotina. We know you will do what is right...."
Another voice breaks through the silence.
"It is your duty as a Zeppeli....don't let us down."
She wakes up as she gasps for air. She looks over to see Jotaro on the other bed of the hotel room still asleep. It was still dark out as she sighs in relief as she holds her head up with her hand. She looks at the time which was 2 in the morning. Joseph wanted Jotaro to keep an eye on Via after what had happened over the past weeks. Polnareff was attacked in his hotel room when they first arrived in Singapore, Avdol was killed by the emperor stand and Polnareff blamed himself for his death in India. They ran into Enyaba since she tried to take Via by force with her Justice stand, Anne was sent away for her safety. Octavia swings her legs to the side of the bed as she rubs her eyes and makes her way to the desk in the room.
She couldn't understand why memories of the Zeppeli men keep appearing every night. She takes out a pen and paper and starts writing. She's been sending letters to Holly and her father ever since they arrived in Hong Kong weeks before. She always wrote that they were being safe and that she intends to makes sure Jotaro and the others were safe. She didn't know it but Jotaro was awake once she woke up from her dreams every night. He can tell something was wrong but he didn't know how to ask. He yawns to himself as she pays no attention to him, pouring her mind and heart to the multiple pieces of papers she had taken from the drawer. She summoned Dark Aztec for a moment as she looks up at it.
