The Ludicrous Escapade

Wanna Bet?

A waiter brought over everyone's orders, setting them down on the round table. Everyone was there except for Polnareff who said he had to take care of some urgent business and you were asked to order for him. It wasn't even brunch time at this point, so you had to settle with boring, old, regular lunch.

Caesar took a sip of water before setting the glass back down, "Okay, (Y/N), so what the heck was up with your blood powers. When we were in trouble we opened it and nothing happened."

You fed Iggy a piece of your sandwich, "Well, the Stand the rest of us dealt with de aged people. It took my body to a time before I could do that. Trying to use that at that moment is probably why it didn't work. But the real question is if it will still work or not."

Jotaro rubbed his eyes, tired, "The man we fought was certainly a powerful Stand user. He could've even killed (Y/N) if he really wanted to."

Joseph gave his grandson a disbelieving look, "Oh yeah? Well the Stand we fought turned all three of us into magnets. Eventually all three of us were stuck together. We could barely even separate Caesar at all thanks to his legs. Everyone just kept staring at us... I'm going to have nightmares about that for weeks..." Avdol and Caesar both seemed quite embarrassed.

You then felt some hands moving around the hair touching the back of your neck which was soon accompanied by a light weight. It was a simple necklace with one of Polnareff's earrings attached as a pendant. The French man stuck his head into your view, "Surprise! When I went to the store to buy myself a new pair, I asked them if they could turn the remaining half of the old one into a necklace! Now we match!"

"Thanks a lot, Jean."

You gave him a quick peck on the cheek and his face immediately reddened and he turned away. In comparison to the amount of times he asked, he was unusually flustered, "D-Don't mention it..." When he looked back at the table, he was alarmed to see that there was no empty seat next to you. Grumbling to himself, he sat in the only empty spot between Joseph and Jotaro. He calmed down a bit when he recalled the dish in front of him was picked by you.

A waiter came by and grabbed the now empty plate in front of Avdol, "Let me clear that for you." The fortune teller gave his thanks in return.

Joseph leaned back in his chair and sighed, "Well, at least we can relax a little. We're almost to Cairo. We've got to figure out where Dio is hiding." Avdol pulled a camera from his sleeve and placed it in the Joestar's waiting hand.

Polnareff shoveled a bite of food into his mouth, "Oh, a spirit photo!"

"Will it show up?" Asked Jotaro.

Joseph shrugged, "I'm not sure. But we've gotten close so it should be quite accurate. Alright, here we go!" He rose his hand, letting Hermit Purple manifest around it before slamming it down on the camera. There were some odd looks from the other customers, and the waiter quickly checked to make sure nothing was wrong. Joseph picked up the Polaroid photo and stared at it.

Caesar looked at him expectantly, "Well? Do you see anything?"

"Almost done..." Mumbled Joseph. "Almost done..." He waited another moment or two before slamming the photo down on the table, "There! This is the place we have to find!"

You all stared at the photo as the colors emerged. It was the corner of a tannish building. A few palm trees towered over the wall and it seemed to resemble some sort of castle. You picked up the picture to get a better look, "Well, surely there can't be that many places that look like this."

Joseph hummed in agreement, "Right. Once we we take the train to Cairo we'll probably be able to find it just by asking around. I'll make a few more pictures on the way there so if we really need to we can split up to ask."
