Another World (JJBA fanfic)

Ch 7 Train To India

Taking train to India didn't waste lots of time, but it did need to take at least one day. The thing that crusaders could thought of is sleeping.
"........." Oliver was the only one awake, she was not comfortable sleeping with others. She stood and walk to a window quietly.
The stars was sprinkling in the midnight of the sky, making the greatest blessing to their jounary. The wind kissed her face lightly, blowed her hair softly, sent her anxiety away to the far away land.
"Someone is having a load on her mind, " an old, familiar voice came out behind her. Joesph walked to her and hand her a cup of hot chocolate, "want some hot chocolate? I bet you like it."
"Thanks..... Mr Joestar." She accepted the chocolate from him, "did I woke you up? "
"I am not that sleepy," Joesph explained, "I was awake, before you leave." he noticed Oliver was not listening, then he changed the topic, "what's bothering you then, I may not be the one you want to talk to..... But you can share your worry to me, we are a team."
"............" a flash of happiness appeared in her eyes. She respected Joesph, she wanted to tell him everything that bothering her, but she did not trust him that much.
"........." Joesph wasn't an old stupid man, he is Joesph Joestar, the smart and experienced Jojo. "well, before you tell me.... Would you like hear mine? A old man's boring story."
"My pleasure, Mr Joestar." Oliver smiled.
He told her his adventure, the best friend of him, his teacher, his grandma, and his enemies. Everything, till the day of the final battle.
"........." Oliver took a sip of hot chocolate, "then... Your friend.... Caesar... Did you apologize to him?"
".........I was not able to," Joesph pulled his hat down, couldn't see his expression, "once I arrived, he was gone....... But it didn't mean the we were in the end game, his soul fight with me till the end. At least.... We won, in victory."
Even Oliver didn't noticed, tears was falling on her face. Maybe she was toughed, or anything else, she didn't know.
"What about you then? "
"......I heard you guys said..... You come here for saving your daughter?" Instead of answering questions, Oliver wiped her tears and asked. Joesph did not make any response, just nodded after a few moment. Like waiting for her story.
Oliver's eyes focused on the view outside, "I lied to you."
"That you need protection, am I right? " Oliver looked at him, shocked. "Don't look at me like that, I am an experienced old man anyway."
"I come here because of DIO....... My best friend was killed by him."
Joesph understood the feeling, "so you want to take a revenge for your friend?"
But Oliver shook her head, "well, she 'was' my best friend, before the day we met DIO."
It triggered Joesph's curious.
"We were just walking at the street, talking and laughing, like normal girls do. We heard a sound and was led by that. That's where the nightmare started..... "

"I let you two make a chose, one of you will live, when one of you sacrifice yourself to me, DIO." the blonde vampire licked his ljps, glancing at the frightened girls interestingly.
Oliver was too scared to speak, or even to move her lips. She looked at her friend by her last eyesight, the poor girl was shaking.
"TAKE ME!! NOT ME! " SHE CRIED, "OLIVER TASTES MUCH MORE BETTER THAN ME!!! "
Oliver did thing of sacrificing herself, but she had never throught of being scold by her best friend.
"Really~? Aren't you friends?" DIO smirked.
"NO WE ARE NOT!! SHE IS A LOAD!! "
Oliver felt betrayed, she looked at her 'best friend'. "Why.... "
"Then how's your idea~? Oliver? " DIO left her face, lightly, like he was talking with his lover.
".........kill me, let her live.... "
Blood painted that road in red, a girl's screaming was sent to the sky. Oliver looked at DIO, unbearably, somehow, she released.
"oh poor, lonely Oliver.... " DIO licked the blood on his hand, smiling to the survivor, "are you crying?"
She didn't mean to, but she couldn't control herself ether. She stepped away from him.
"Oh oh..... Don't be scared..... You were betrayed... You were used..... But I won't...." never know when, he was already at her back, whispering at her ear, "let us be friends, forever....."
The remained sense came back, Oliver screamed and avoided him, "Leave me alone!!! VAMPIRE!!!"

"Then you know the remaining part.... " Oliver finished the hot chocolate.
The experienced old man was silent, thinking of something.
"I do not know why exactly I want to, maybe a revenge, or maybe a release from the fear, or maybe...... "
"I understand, Oliver," Joesph patted her shoulder, "I may not really good at comforting people..... but when you need any of us.... We are here." he blinked and gave her a bright smile, "We will never let you down,promised." He raised his fist.
The sun was raising up, Oliver looked at him, let the sunlight kissed her cold and teary face. She smiled. She hitted Joesph's fist.

Other side, the people, beside Polnareff, who were supposed to be sleeping, were now smiling at each other.
"We are going to have a geart jounary."
