There was a statue. A beautiful statue that lay in the middle of the woods. It was a legend that consisted of a young king that was struggling with his country. He was turned to stone because a horrible creature convinced the teen king that he could help. But, that was a lie. However, the statue was only considered a legend. No one knew if it existed or not. That is, until it was finally uncovered.

"C'mon, Jotaro! You slowpoke!" A loud voice was heard in the woods. Polnareff, Avdol, Jotaro, and the dog Iggy were exploring in the deep woods.
"Jeez, I'm coming!" Jotaro yelled, picking up his pace. The four trekked through the woods, going deeper. Jotaro watched as Polnareff and Iggy jumped over large logs, while Avdol just hastily climbed over them. Jotaro was about to jump over a log, when he heard a scream.
"Guys! I found something! Or... someone. I'm not sure, just come look!" Avdol's voice sounded worried. The two other men and the dog rushed over and saw what Avdol was pointing at. A foot. It was covered in moss and red roses, along with the rest of the body.
"Wait, roses aren't native here, are they?" Polnareff asked.
"No, but they were centuries ago." Jotaro replied, grabbing a long stick and uncovering the body, which turned out to be made of stone. Avdol and Polnareff did the same. Soon, the stone body was uncovered. It was of a boy, about seventeen. The same age as Jotaro. He had curly hair with a bang that fell over his eyes. The boy was naked, and the only thing that was left besides the body was an ill fitting crown atop his head. The boys almost instantly realize who this was.
"This is... the lost King!" Jotaro said. The two other men nodded.
"Can we unfreeze him?" Polnareff asked.
"We can, but I'm not sure how." Avdol replied, knocking more of the foliage off of the young king. Jotaro followed, picking up the bush of roses and throwing it to the grassy floor next to him. But, once the roses hit the floor, they shriveled up.
"What the...?" Polnareff looked at the shriveled roses. The three were confused. They all dumbly stared at the dead roses, until a loud crack came from behind them. They swiveled their heads to be met with a boy. Jotaro recognized him. The King. The King's lavender eyes widened at the sight of people.
"Who are you?"

A/N - Sorry that this one shot ended on a cliffhanger. I will make another part soon, but I felt cramming it all in one part would be a bit too much :^)
