The Stars Don't Hold Our Fate (Jotaro x Reader x Kakyoin)

20: Games & Arrangements

You and Jotaro arrive at the hotel and go back to Joseph and Avdol's room. When you walk in, you see everyone, including Anne, and a few men from the Speedwagon Foundation. Anne jumps up from the bed and runs to hug you around the waist, "Y/n! They're going to send me away! Tell them you want me to stay! I wanna go with you guys!" She pleads. You smile and get down to her level on your knee.

"Of course I want you to come. But we're on a really dangerous journey. We're saving Jotaro's mom, who is also Joseph's- I mean, Mr. Joestar's daughter. And we're also saving my best friend. If it weren't so dangerous I'd have no problem with you going, but the risk of you getting hurt is high. You saw what that fake Kakyoin did to Jotaro right?" She nods her head. "That's why it's dangerous. You're such a nice girl Anne, so I want you to grow big and strong, and maybe one day we'll meet again." She tears up and hugs you around your neck.

"Okay, I'll go home then." You hug her back and after a while, you both let go. You stand back up and you nod to the men of the Speedwagon Foundation. They walk up to you guys and they show Anne the way out as she waves bye to everyone. You smile and turn to wave back until the door closes. You were sad to see her go but it was for the best.

"Well that was easy, she refused to leave before you got here!" Polnareff yells exasperated.

"Well did you guys explain to her what was going on?" You ask him.

"No," Joseph answers.

"Well, there you go! She didn't want to be treated like a kid left in the dark. As soon as I explained to her what we were doing, she realized the seriousness of the situation and she was more compliant." You explain.

"Or you just have a way with kids," Kakyoin smiles.

You smile back at him knowing that this one was the real deal. "Wow, way to crush my cool moment there, you dork," you playfully shove his arm and he

"Did you guys get the tickets?" Avdol asks.

"Yup," you pull out the tickets from your inventory.

"Perfect! Then let's get going!" Joseph pipes up. "Oh, and we have some stuff for you from the Foundation." He hands you a bag and puts his hands behind his back. You open it and see more medicine and a change of clothes.

'Score! Now we won't have to stock up on medicines for a while!'

"Sweet! Thank you." You turn around and start to walk out the door. You feel something wrap around your face and then you hear a lock. You panic momentarily and turn around and see Joseph smiling. 'Oh. My. God.' You drop your bag and touch your face, "Is this what I think it is?" You say, trying to take it off, but no matter what you do, it won't budge.

"Yup. And you can't take off the mask without a great amount of Hamon. If you breathe in proper rhythm then you'll have no problem breathing through that apparatus. You can take it off when you eat and need to brush your teeth, but that's it. You've progressed quite a bit, but this should speed up the process immensely. Also, don't worry, if something were to happen to that mask, I have 2 more as backups," Joseph explains with a grin. It begins to get hard to breathe and you panic.

You fall to your knees trying to find the proper rhythm and attempt to take off the mask again. 'Oh my gosh! This thing is ruthless!'

"Hey! Why'd she suddenly collapse? What is that thing?!" Polnareff says in shock.

"It's something to help her Hamon training. I used the same thing when I was her age."

"But she's turning pale!"

"That's because she's trying to take it off instead of breathing."

"Mr. Joestar! She won't die will she?" Avdol says concerned.
