The Past Always Comes Back to Haunt You

Iggy the Gum Chewing Fool

The Crusaders were cutting through the desert when Joseph ordered them to stop, having made arrangements with the Speedwagon Foundation to grab supplies. They waited for a while before a helicopter started approaching them. 

"Wh-What is that?" Polnareff asked. 

"They're here," Joseph said with a smile. 

"It's a helicopter!"

"You don't have to state the obvious," Kakyoin stated. "We can see that."

"That's a helicopter from the Speedwagon Foundation," Joseph explained. "They're looking for a place to land."

"Speedwagon Foundation?" Jotaro asked. "Your old friends who are taking care of Mom back in Japan?"

"Yeah, that's right."

"Don't tell me we're going for a ride in that helicopter."

"No, I refuse to step into an aircraft until Dio's dead," Eleanor stated as it started to land in front of them. "We'll just end up crashing, and I can't see with all that noise."

"No, don't worry," Joseph assured. "As much as I'd like to, the crew aren't stand users. If we were attacked, they'd be at risk."

"Then why is that helicopter here?" Kakyoin asked.   

"They've brought us a helper."

"What?" Polnareff asked. "A helper?"

"He has a few personality issues, so it's taken a while to get him here."

"Mr. Joestar!" Avdol exclaimed. "It's impossible for him to come with us on this trip! There's no way he could be helpful." 

"We have Eleanor, you know how he loves her."

Jotaro stiffened and glanced at Eleanor, but she was smiling and seemed excited.

"Do you know him, Avdol? Eleanor?" Kakyoin asked. 

"Yeah, very well," Avdol said. 

"Yep, we're good buddies!" Eleanor said with a smile. 

"Hold on," Jotaro said. "If he's a helper, that means he's a stand user, right?"

"He's the stand user who's stand suggest the card called The Fool."

"The Fool?"

"The Fool?" Polnareff asked. "Hah! That card sounds like an idiot."

"We're lucky that he's not our enemy," Avdol stated. "You wouldn't be able to beat him."

"What'd you say, you asshole? You'd better watch your mouth."

"It's the truth. And what's with the hand? That hurts."

"Sounding all high and mighty and shit-"

"Knock it off already," Kakyoin interrupted. 

"So, you and this 'helper' are close?" Jotaro asked Eleanor, the girl noting the hint of jealousy in his voice. 

"I helped Joseph and Avdol take him down when he was causing trouble in a nearby city," Eleanor explained. "It actually wasn't too much of a fight, at least, for me. He hated Joseph and Avdol but took a surprising liking to me. Oh, look, the helicopter finally landed." 

They approached it and the pilots stepped out to greet them.

"Mr. Joestar!" the pilot greeted. "Thank goodness you're safe."

"Thanks for coming out here," Joseph said as they shook hands. "I appreciate it."

"So, who's the Stand user?" Jotaro asked. There was a pause. "I'm asking which one of you is the stand user. Is it you?"
