Self-love (Jjba Fanfic)

[Johnathans pov]

I wrap my arms tightly around dios waist as we plummet into the fires below.

"You bloody worm! How dare you do this!!" Dios voice booms in my ear as he struggles against my grip. Ive lost everything...my home...my father...I truly have nothing; nothing but my life. I'm willing to throw it away just to stop dio and the power he wields from hurting those I care for!!

We continue to fall closer to the fire, I close my eyes awaiting my fate until I hear someone calling from outside.

"Johnathan joestar if you leave me I won't ever forgive you!!" 

My eyes shoot open from the familiar voice. Aaliyah?

"I've lost to many people in this life time...if you leave me too I won't ever forgive you! Even in the gates of heaven!" She shouts with a hoarse voice as if she has been crying. She never really cried...she has been there for me for years stuck to my side like glue, she is...

"God damnit! I love you to much to let you go!!" She cried out causing both me and dio to look shocked. For me it was a new set of hope and confidence but I could feel the anger radiating off my dear brother. Dio kicks me off of him harshly and grabs into the wall to prevent himself from decending further down. 

"Farwell jojo, while your resilience impressed me for a moment I can't help but feel upset the woman I was destined for has declared her love for a worm like you. Don't worry ill take good care of her~" he playfully teased to me as I fell. I couldn't die...not yet ; yanking the broken lance out from my shoulder I stabbed it into the wall to prevent my decent. 

With a flip I manage to step on the exposed metal and propel myself upwards towards dios form. With my hand outstretched I reach for his ankle, only to miss by a few feet. I curse to myself as I yank my belt off and whip it around his ankle, "I'm not finished with you yet dio!" I cry out using my body weight to pull him down with me. It works as his hand slips from the wall and we both fall down together once again 

"I'm going to make sure your fate is sealed" I shout out as I unseath the knife used on my father "with the same knife you used on father!!" With a major thrust into his I held on for dear life. My mind flashes to aaliyah and speedwagon...their saddened faces..and her tears streaming down her soft cheeks. I suddenly feel dio slam his arms down to break my own, it was painful...but I refused to let go. He struggled abit with me but from seeing my grip never faltering he instead changes his tone, "go ahead! We will die together in the inferno but don't forget! I can heal myself faster then the flames can burn...you will perish in these flames!" He laughed out.

"FATHER!! GIVE ME YOUR STRENGTH!" I cried out into the flames as I kicked our forms off the wall to the direction of the joestar family guardian statue; the goddess of love. The statue pierced through dios torso causing him to scream out in pain while I pushed myself out of the way. I watched as dios body became engulfed withing the roaring flames, a final outcry as he died.

My body flew out of the flames onto the courtyard just in front of the two. The adrenaline in my body is starting to fade causing the pain of everything to make its way throughout my body, my eyes fluttered and my hearing is reduced to a small ringing with muffled noise. My eyes and ears focused lightly as I felt a smaller form pick me up and hug me, small droplets of water collected in the nook of my neck soaking my cooked skin and clothes. I felt another hug from a slightly larger person, the sounds are becoming clearer...sobs, crackling of fire, and small whispers of your alive. 

A hand cupped my cheek making me look up at the source, aaliyha looked at me with moist eyes, tear stained and puffy reddened cheeks, and a shaky smile. I smiled at her softly before my eyes fluttered shut, and softly I whisper out her name...

My body feels like it's on fire...the pain is like needles...I'm so exhausted. It's darker then the darkest night, and more quiet then I've ever been used to.

It feels...cold, down to my soul.

I feels like this for awhile until... something happens. I don't know what it is but it's familiar, like I've know this feeling for many years. Suddenly....there's a noise, not just any noise...it's a song. A song that's so beautiful and warm, it makes me feel at peace. The soft feeling of someone holding my hand or caressing my hair.

It's so wonderful! Like I've gone to heaven...but then it goes away. The old feeling is back; cold, dark, quiet, and painful. It's hell.

Where did it go? 

It feels like hours of torture before the feeling comes back. Warm and familiar; another song plays to put my mind at ease. This feeling is so wonderful...I don't want to let it go.

Then it leaves again, only to come back ages later. It continues like this for what felt like eternity.  More and more I feel addicted to the euphoric feeling of this entity.

I try to call out to it, but no sound comes out. I long to know it's name or what it is...but to no avail. Until I start to see light, a warm dim candle light. 

"Jojo?"
