"IT'S DIO BRANDO!"

Everyone looked at me. They looked at me curiously and probably as all the people had already set their opinion about me. In the first moment they looked at me, they already judged the book by its cover. Every one of them is wrong. In one way or another. They know nothing. Not even Jonathan yet, but back then... He probably didn't know either.

Humans are so pathetic creatures. That's why I need to overcome this. I'm already not like them.

"Let'em go for it!"

"What's his deal?"

"Sounds good to me! Let him go for it!"

People were shouting excitedly.

Jonathan looked surprised and a little scared. He still doesn't know how strong I really am, or maybe, he just doesn't want to fight me?

I finished tying boxing gloves and stand up to walk to the ring.

I had a feeling that some moments are meant to happen. Like that one moment in the mansion where Jojo picked up my bag. The fate isn't on my side, but it never was. I, Dio, always needed to overcome it. If needed, I'll do it once more. This time I'll definitely rule the world, this time it's meant to be!

"Dio... We don't have to fight..." Jonathan said quietly to me. "I can surrender or maybe..."

"That's not a problem, Jojo. Treat me like every other opponent. It's not like I have no experience in fighting. I actually do. A lot."

"Oh?" he said curious with my words.

Jojo. Don't worry, I have a plan. I'm not afraid.

I have an advantage in every way! I'm smarter, stronger and I know your moves.

There's only one unknown thing, but it doesn't matter for now.

"Are you really sure Dio?"

"Yes... Yes, I am."

"Splendid! It looks like everyone's in agreement here!" started announcer. "Dio, let me explain the rules. You take even one hit to the face and you lose. You can get hit in the body as many times as you want, but if you get knocked down, I'm going to give you a 10 count."

Me and Jojo looked at each other.

"Go, Jojo!"

"Show this sider who's boss!"

With such an enthusiastic audience I need to hold myself from showing who really they should cheer on.

Jojo looked at me focused and he set up his position for a fight. I stood still focused on him.

"Start!"

The fight started. After a moment Jojo approached me.

Jojo took a swing to punch me.

Useless. By his first moves, I already can tell that he has no experience. He's still childish. Good. It looks like he doesn't remember after all.

Jojo's fist was close to my face. I stood still.

Foolish. He's lucky I pity him because it's worth for me. He won't be able even to land a hit on me!
