     I wake up and jump out of bed. I throw on some clothes and rush down to the armory. Once I arrive, Harry sees me and asks me why I'm here so early. "I remember that I'm getting a new weapon today, where is it?" I ask. "Oh, that's right. Over here," Harry says. He leads me over to the shotguns. "We replaced your KRM-262 with a more hard-hitting gun you seem to be better with and like more," Harry says as he hands me a box. I open it and reveal an Argus slug shotgun. "Hell yea! I can't wait to use this. Ace!" I say. Ace appears and takes the weapon. "I'll have Ace of Spades hold it for me. If I need it, I'll call him and he'll give it to me. Thanks, Harry." I say. "No problem. Enjoy it, Ultra." Harry says. I head over to the cafe. Mira is there, along with Amaru and Goyo. She seems to enjoy their company. I grab some food, walk over and sit down. "Hey, all," I say. They welcome me and tell me what they were talking about. Goyo was telling stories of his old days with his military. Amaru was doing the same. Some of their stories are funny. "So, how was the Corps, Ultra?" Goyo asks. "Well, have I got some stories for you," I say. I tell them about my squad, my grand operation, my operation at the university, and my old house. I throw in some funny details, to lighten the mood. They get it and understand. They also share some of the stories I missed out on. We finish our food and toss our food and chill out in the cafe. We continue to swap stories until the intercom comes on. "May operators Pulse, Doc, Thatcher, Blitz, and Ultra come to my office? Thank you." Harry says. "Well then, back to business!" I say and leave. I meet up with the others and we go into Harry's office. He tells us that a small railroad town in Arizona is under attack. "Fuck," I say. "You'll leave as soon as possible," Harry says. I was already ready, so I grabbed my M1927 and 1911, and we went up to the chopper taking us to this railroad town. Once we load up, were off as soon as possible. It's a 5-hour flight. I get a bit of sleep while we fly. 

     Once we land, I hop off and immediately rack a round into my M1927. "Y'all ready to end sono chi no kioku?" I ask the others. They look at me confused. "The memory of that blood." I clarify. "Oh. Hell yes." Blitz says. "Rodger," Thatcher says. "Aye aye, ready to kill." Pulse says. "Just don't die in the process," Doc says. We all check our weapons and rock and roll. We hop on the train the Masks are supposedly going to attack. It starts to roll away from the station. "Damn. I haven't been on a train in a while. And the sunset is beautiful." I say. I pull out my phone and take a picture to show Mira. My phone gets shot out of my hand. I look in the direction the bullet came from and see a White Mask. I jump on him and start punching him. "ORA! ORA! ORA! SUKA! SUKA! SUKA!" I start saying with each punch. I've almost beat him to death when Doc pulls me off. "Alright, Jason. You've done enough. Let's talk to him." He says. "Sorry, Gustave. I couldn't help myself. He's lucky I didn't use Ace of Spades." I say. "I still don't understand that. Oh well, let me get to work." He says and starts talking to the mask. Blitz and Thatcher are watching the sides of the train. Pulse and I are sitting on the side, looking at the sunset. "Damn, rip your phone. Want to take a pic with mine?" He offers. "Thanks, Jack," I say and take his phone. I take a picture and send it to my personal phone. I hand him his phone back and jump off the moving train. Ace grabs the top of it and pulls me up. I stand on top of the train car we were in. I let out a sigh and sit down. Ace comes out and sits, or whatever he does without legs, down next to me. Ace can punch almost as fast as Star Platinum, The World, Crazy Diamond, and Golden Experience. Ace hands me his deck of cards. "Thanks, Ace. Want to play a game?" I ask him. He nods his head. He takes a spot in front of me and I deal him 5 cards. I also give myself 5 cards. We play Go Fish for a little bit, then go to Poker. We have a good time. Ace notices something behind me, but can't act quick enough. A sniper shot rings out and hits me in the chest, near the heart. I feel this and fall over and off the top of the train. Ace throws me into the car. Doc starts operating. Ace tries to communicate what happened to me, but can't because I have to recall him. I spit up blood and Doc starts to work a bit faster. All I hear is Mira and I's wedding song (Above.) I muster up the strength to speak a bit. "If I die, tell Mira I lover her. Tell Delta, Blu, and Binary they were amazing friends. Tell Rainbow they were the best military experience and best comrades I could ever want..." I spit up more blood. "...And Ace, you were the best Stand I could ever have. I wished that we could get Requiem..." I say and pass out.  

     I wake up and spit out some more blood. Doc sees me awaken and helps me up. Ace appears and seems happy. Pulse, Blitz, and Thatcher are fighting off Masks. Doc tells me that I've been out for about 15 minutes and a bunch more Masks appeared to try and kill me. He also says the both of the weapons that I had were lost when I fell off of the top of the car. I check my side and back. Neither of my weapons are there. "Fuck! Well, I have a backup." I say. Ace gets my signal and gives me my Argus. "The second ability of my Stand. He can hold onto items for me and store them until I need them." I say. We get back on top of the train car and I start blasting slugs at the terrorists. 

     "Stand Proud" (Right here^) is all I hear. I pull a card for Ace. "A 10 of Spades!" I say, and my Argus becomes more powerful and Ace becomes a force to be reckoned with. He is now as fast as Star Platinum with his punches. I'm also fully healed and feeling way better.  We tear up the terrorist forces that are approaching. Once the forces stop coming, Ace and I are tired. We use the last of our strength to hop inside the car and high-five. I lie down and put my head against some hay that was conveniently on the car. Nothing much is said between the five of us because we are all tired. I fall asleep while on this last train home.

A/N: Hell yea, another chapter! I want to include more music in my stories, so I'm going to try it out. Also, I'm going to drop more references to JoJo in my stories as well because I like the series. Anyway, hope you enjoyed. Ultra, over and out.
