28: The Sun

After the five of you met up after sightseeing— Polnareff being sad about having to leave some pretty woman— you all started to make your way to the next stop. However, as you sit in your back row of the car, you can't help but notice that Kakyoin has been on edge the entire time. He keeps looking around, an attentive expression on his face. You weren't the only one who noticed his behavior.

"Kakyoin? Is something wrong?" Jotaro asks from beside him.

"Nothing..." Kakyoin trails off. "I'm just enjoying the view. I know we'd see if anyone were following us, but... I still can't shake the feeling we're being watched."

"Yeah, I can't blame you," Polnareff speaks up from the driver's seat.

"Honestly, I can't help but to always feel on edge now as well," You admit. "With the danger of an enemy Stand user wherever we turn, I feel as if I can hardly ever truly relax."

"That is true. Anyway, as for the route we'll take..." Mr. Joestar analyzes the map as he sits in the passenger's seat, "The village we need to go to, Yarpline, is about sixty miles northwest of here. They sell Cessnas there. The trip across the entire desert is around two days, so I think we should go to the village, buy a Cessna, then use it to fly across the Saudi Arabian desert."

You raise a brow at his explanation. "A Cessna is just a small plane, right?" You ask him. Mr. Joestar smiles and nods.

"It sure is! I was worried that enemy Stand users could endanger innocent lives by attacking us if we traveled by plane, but if we're traveling alone by Cessna, I can pilot it myself and shorten our travel time."

Jotaro groans upon hearing this. "With three plane crashes to your name, I'm not exactly dying to test my luck out for your fourth, Old Man."

Three?!

"That plane that we left Japan in wasn't your first crash?! No wonder you knew how to land it on the water properly..." You say as Mr. Joestar glares at Jotaro. You wonder how bad the old man's luck truly is if he's not only been in one, not two, but three plane crashes.

"That's a story for another time..." Jotaro sighs, perhaps of relief, showing that he most likely knows what story his grandfather was referring to. "Anyways, we need to cross a stretch of desert to reach Yarpline."

"Then shouldn't we have traded this car for an off-road one? Plus, this one was rather pricey," Kakyoin speaks up.

Mr. Joestar just gives a small laugh. "We'll be riding by camel. It will only take a little less than a day—"

"Camel?!" Polnareff is just as shocked at the rest of you. "Hey, a Cessna is one thing, but come on! I've never even ridden a camel before!"

Mr. Joestar laughs at Polnareff's shocked expression. "Just trust me. I know what I'm doing. I'll teach you!"

"But I like the back row of the car, Old Man!" You whine as you fall back down onto the seat and lay across it. Mr. Joestar gasps as if he was hurt you would also call him that. "Plus, cars have air conditioning..."

Jotaro sighs before speaking up. "Just leave it to the old man to come up with some bizarre idea."

-—
When you all got to the edge of the city, Mr. Joestar told Polnareff to stop in a small settlement. Apparently, this is where you were going to get the camels.

You get out of the car, already missing the relief that the air conditioning provided. The worst of the desert heat had gone away, however, it still wasn't comfortable.

Goodbye, sacred back row...

You walk over with the others, following Mr. Joestar. He goes to who is taking care of the camels.
