28: Now?

Jotaro's POV:

          We all take a moment to gather ourselves in the colosseum after the battle, not that it was much of one. The way they spoke of this man? I was expecting hell on earth, now a magic show. Either way, i'm glad everyone's made it out in one peace. What are we going to do now though? From my understanding Saffron plans to adopt all these grown ass kids, they've only ever known Italy though. Will we have to move? What about our kid? I'll do what's best for the majority, mainly what's best for Saffron, but I was hoping to raise any children I were to have in Japan or the states. I know Japan well and enjoyed my childhood there, the states also have a ton of opportunities different from ours which could greatly benefit a child. What does italy have? Pasta? I guess i'll have to learn.

"Well... what now?" Saffron asks from her spot on the ground

"We need to leave, before anything." Bucarrati sighs

"Leave? Why?" Fugo asks almost with anger

"We're the group that murdered the boss, even without order's from him someone will come for us. Multiple groups even.. If not that? A war of who will take his place is going to erupt and we cannot risk that." He stands up and brushes his clothes off

"Where will we go? It's not like we have money." Mista rubs his face out of stress

"I will take care of all expenses. Everyone do whatever you need to do, it's covered." I hand Saff my card and she smiles

"That's sweet, but we would be spending so much money. Are you sure?" She asks

"The speed wagon foundation will pay back whatever is spent. You have my word, let's just take care of these kids." Joseph smiles

"Thank you!" Her eyes well a bit as she runs and hugs him

"Okay, where is the closest adoption agency?" She asks with wide, excited eyes

"Slow down, they aren't just going to let you walk out of here with four kids." I laugh

"Seven." She corrects me almost instantaneously

"Seven?" I ask and recount

"Yeah, Trish and those two dumbass's. I'm not just going to leave her here to figure it out! I can't make you but if you'd like, Trish, the offer extends. Same with you two, I know your grown and you have held your own forever. You're adults and I respect that, but come with and let us help us as best as we can." Trish's eyes light up as Saffron speaks

"Still, they won't let you just leave with them. Will they?" Joseph asks and she shrugs

"Well, Mista is technically an adult. All he has to do is tell them he wants me to sign the paper, as for the rest... They're orphans. One is my brother but the others don't really have anywhere else to go so why would they not?" Saffron asks

"They have a point. There are systems for a reason, odds are they will put up a hell of a fight." Abbacchio chimes in

"Do you kids really want this?" The old man asks with a stern tone

"Are you kidding? She's the only person besides Bucarrati who has ever given a damn about any of us. Giving that up would make us beyond stupid." Narancia crosses his arms

"She's the only family i've ever known. I'm going with or without a signed piece of paper." Giorno seemed panicky but stern in his decision

"Give me a few minutes on the phone, I can get the speed wagon foundation to do the paperwork and everything behind it. Shall I have them put both names on the papers, or just Saffrons?" Joseph pulls his phone out and gives me a look that tells me what he wants me to do.
