-Across America- Diego Brando x reader

~51~

I don't even have no more Diego pics.

"Yes I will. You asking that question leads me to think that you're planning on something. Just what are you thinking of doing exactly??"

She could see through me so easily. Was it too obvious that I was really thinking of doing something..
"We'll kill the president. The deal I made with him.. He never intended to keep me alive in the first place. He would never sell Manhattan island like that, so he will kill me before I can get my hands on it." I said it out loud. "Kill the president? That's too insane! What are you even thinking? Why don't we just talk to him-" "You don't understand. If we don't take precautions, he will kill us before we even say a word to him. I don't know how, he may have allies. But I expect him to be ready for us. He doesn't know about your ability.. which is to our advantage. That's why we should act before he knows anything." I told her, my plan was almost complete. "Are you sure he wants to kill us-? Has he said anything to you?" Y/N asked. She was doubting me. "What are you even saying? No, of course. He won't go like 'Well hey, I plan on murdering both of you.' It doesn't work like that." I face palmed. "I don't know! Uhh, I guess you're right! I'll do whatever you tell me to. I want to be of help and do my best. But there's one more thing.." She stopped. "If he wants all the parts.. this means he will go after Johnny and Gyro first. They have the most parts. We, no.. You must be in second place. I don't think he will go after me, he seemed to have taken a liking to me back at dinner party." She chuckled. "Yeah, disgusting.. He won't go after you if you stay out of this. You being with me doesn't get you involved.. But as soon as you act against him in any way, you'll be on his bad side." I bit my lip. "Right, but this could be used as our advantage too. But what I was trying to say earlier.. We are on the same side as Johnny and Gyro." Y/N glared at me. I knew what she wanted. "Even if we have the same enemy, we have completely different goals. Plus, I'm not exactly on their list with friends after I tried killing them.. multiple times. It's hard to be allies with them right now." I sighed. Joining forces with someone else would have been nice, but I couldn't go with anybody just like that. I didn't trust them at all. "Yeah, okay. I guess we'll be fine on our own.. We always were after all." She got quiet. "This went too good.. She agreed with me." I was relieved that Y/n didn't have any complaints.

Time: ~5pm
A little more than 15 hours till Philadelphia.

Y/N's pov:

"Goddamn, I'm tired. I get more exhausted every day. This is torture." I let out a grunt.
We were fortunate enough to find some house to sleep at. There wasn't anyone inside.

I immediately laid on the bed inside. It was cold, but somehow I managed to fall asleep in a very short period of time...

Few hours later.

"Mm.. what's happening?" I awoke by loud commotion. I looked around.. Diego wasn't there. It was like I was in a different room. I was still sleepy and couldn't tell..
I yawned and got out. When I looked outside.. I couldn't believe it. I was in a completely different place. I was in the mountains. It was still dark outside so the only thing that was helping me see was the moonlight. I leaned and looked around out of the window. "No way! I'm sure I wasn't here when I fell asleep!" I was confused.
My vision started to adjust and I could see more properly. Now that I was fully awake I could make out more things too. The place seemed too familiar. "Could it be-! The village with the dinosaurs!"
I ran outside through the door. I was pretty confused. "Did I teleport myself here subconsciously?" I thought, but then suddenly something ran between my legs and around me. "AAH! What is happening!" There were little dinosaurs going in some direction. They completely ignored me. "Diego!!" I yelled out. I knew that he'd be somewhere around there.
I saw more of them, small and big, going in the same direction. "Have I been dreaming all this time?? Such a nice dream.." I hit my head twice. "I need to go help Johnny and Gyro!" I remembered what I had to do.
I hurried going down, saw them climbing up a cliff. "No.. I've already experienced this." I gritted my teeth. "Something is off!" No matter what it was, I went on to help them.
I saw Dio trying to jump over a chasm to get to them. "Diego! What are you doing!? Stop it right now!" I snapped at him.
I got his attention. He looked back at me, but quickly ignored me. "What..?" I was confused. I just quickly ran over to the other side to help Gyro and Johnny. I teleported with ease and everything was fine.
"Guys! Are you fine?!" I yelled. "Y/N!! Gyro is turning into a dinosaur! But are you fine?! What happened??" Johnny seemed to be more worried about me.. "What happened? What do you mean?" I asked. "Uhh, At least you're fine now! Let's go!" Gyro shouted behind Johnny.
I looked back and saw that Dio already made it over to our side.
"Guys!!" I warned them. "Shit!" They cussed. I quickly grabbed Johnny and started running up the hill. "Huh?! Y/N, you're so fast even when you're caring me now!" He looked confused. "What? I've always been!" I told him. "This..! Above us! What's that?" He pointed to a statue looking thing. "Is that a statue-" "No... That's no statue. There is something in its hands!!" Johnny yelled. I looked back at Gyro. His condition was getting worse. "Gyro! Just a little bit more!" I tried getting through him.
"Those are.. the eyes!" They were in the statue.

I couldn't even realize that Diego was just behind us and already got to the corpse part. "NO! Dio is taking the eyes!!" He had them in his hands. He began turning back to his normal form.
"I'm not letting him have that corpse! Eat that Dio!" Johnny shot his nails at him. But then Gyro's balls deflected them. He was already under control.
"Unbelievable.. I already knew that this would happen. It's the same!"

Then all of the sudden the same vegan woman was here, close by Diego. "Alright! You've done well, Diego Brando. I was right in turning you into a dinosaur, very well!!"
"If that's all repeating, then I suppose I have to beat you again!" I yelled at her. "Hm? What are you saying-" I teleported right behind her and B2D punched her in the back, making a hole through her body. She coughed out blood. "Y/N!-" Johnny yelled. There were dinosaurs rushing towards me. I got away. "This should do it... The wound is untreatable. She will die. We are saved, Johnny!" I told him. "Not yet! We need the eyes!" He cried out. I saw that he let go of the corpse hand and started transforming. "I'm gonna take the eyes while I haven't fully turned into a dinosaur!" He ran to her while she was too busy trying to stop the blood that was leaking out. He struck her with his tail, getting the two eyeballs and sending her flying. "Gyro!! Catch those!" He threw them towards him, but velociraptors stopped Johnny.
I suddenly collapsed on my knees
"I feel tired.. Why.. I'm gonna pass out.. I feel so weird. This all happened before.."
When I looked back up, Gyro was already with the eye and both of them were fighting the vegan teacher. Johnny was shooting down velociraptors and.. Diego? "Huh-? Where is Diego-" Something hit my head from behind. I fell on my back. Then darkness surrounded my eyes. "No- not yet.. don't pass out- I can overcome this." I desperately tried pushing the darkness and recovering my vision. "A little bit more!!" I began seeing and hearing again. I could make out a silhouette hovering over me. "Diego..? Is that you!" I finally could see. He was trying to pick me up. "You!" He yelled, looked shocked. I felt a hard hit behind my head again. But I knew how to dodge it.
"Stop.. Diego." I tried reaching out my hands for him. He didn't pull back. I held his face. "I finally know why I'm here. Was it you who really knocked me out? What were you thinking, really.. You could have told me the truth after all that time we've been together." I whispered. "What are you talki-" I kissed him. He didn't resist. While we kissed I noticed something in my periphery. There was the figure of the young woman with the white hair. I understood.

In the morning

I woke up, once again. This time I was where I was supposed to be. Back to the house in a field before Philadelphia. "I'm glad I know that now.. mother." The dream I had, it was a vision Clara gave me. She wanted to let me see what really happened that night. Diego was still keeping it a secret for some reason. It hurt.
He was laying just next to me, hugging me. It felt warm. "It was all a lie." I laid on my side. Tears slowly and carefully rolled down my face. I wanted it to not be true, just some dream I had that meant nothing. "Ugh, but it all makes sense now!" I gritted my teeth. He once again broke my trust. "I have to prove it before I do anything else."

Have a great morning/night or whatever part of the day you'll be having!💪🏻
