[ ]: Stands names

Your POV:

We all stared at the old man corpse, with a mix of surprise and disgust at what we just witnessed, his blood slowly pouring out of his split open skull.

Kakyoin: It doesn't look like he's carrying one of Dio's spores.

Abdul: [TOWER OF GRAY] create accidents to kill peoples. It's a stand primarily used to steal valuables from people easily.

"No wonder why Dio had his eyes on this guy..."

That's when I suddenly had a strange feeling, like the ground I was on was starting to tilt slightly.

"Hey everyone, is the plane tilting, or is it just me ?"

Joseph: No, you're right, the plane IS tilting.

"But weren't we supposed to land in like, a couple hours ? Did we all overslept or something ?"

Joseph: N...No but...You've got to be Kidding me !!

We then proceeded toward the cockpit with Jotaro and Kakyoin following closely.

Stewardess: Excuse me sir, but where are you going ? That's the cockpit, and it's off limits.

Joseph: We're quite aware of that.

"Please just let us pass already"

Fortunately, they noticed Jotaro following us, and stepped aside, and I could only guess what was going through their minds.

We finally arrived in the cockpit, only to be greeted by a morbid scene: The pilots were lying in a pool of their own blood, with their tongues ripped off.

" That insect stand did all of this before attacking us ?!"

Jotaro: He already got both pilots !

Joseph: We're losing altitude, and the controls are damaged...At this rate, we'll crash.

???: WHAHAHAHAA !!

We all turned around to see the stand user barely alive, standing in the doorway, with blood pouring everywhere.

Old piece of crap: My stand is represented by the "Tower" card, and symbolizes destruction, and therefore the end of your journey !! You shall never reach Master Dio !!

Old piece of crap: Even if you somehow escape this crash with your lives, Egypt is still over ten thousands kilometers away !! And through the whole journey, Master Dio's loyal followers will NEVER give you a moment's rest! This world has some horrible stands and their users will make your trip a living hell !!

We all stared in shock and disgust at what was happening before us.

Old piece of crap: And about you over there ! He said pointing to me.

Old piece of crap: You're lucky that Master Dio told me to not kill you right away, look like he has some plans concerning you !

"Wait, what does he intend to do with me ?!"

Old piece of crap: Why do you care, you're all doooooomed anyways ! You bastards will never make it to Egypt !!

He fell over, dying of blood loss in the process. And we heard what sounded like some whimpering in the hallway.

It was the stewardess, cowering in fear at what just happened, and honestly no one can blame them for that.

Jotaro: You stewardess are trained for that, not screaming to prevent any panic.

Jotaro: Now, we're getting ready to take control of the plane the best as we can and go for a water landing ! Go back and there and tell the passengers to put on their seatbelts and brace for impact

Joseph: Umm...

"Something wrong Mr.Joestar ?"

Joseph: I've only flown propellers planes before...

Kakyoin: Propeller...

Joseph: But Jotaro, Y/n... This'll end up being the third time I've had to make a crash landing, have you ever heard of anyone crashing 3 different planes ?

Everyone:.........

Jotaro: I'M NEVER FLYING WITH YOU AGAIN !!

"I DEMAND A PARACHUTE !!"

Timeskip after impressive landing and rescue

Hong-Kong, your POV

"Guess we can cross out the idea of taking a plane to Egypt..."

Abdul: Yes, we can't risk something like this happening again, or else the other stand users will kill innocent people.

Joseph: We're going to have to stick to other means of getting to Egypt...

Abdul: But...We absolutely MUST reach Dio within 50 days.

Abdul: Holy's life is hanging by a thin thread, and it's the only way to save her.

Jotaro/Joseph:...

Kakyoin: If the plane hadn't gone down, we'd be landing in Cairo by now.

"Dio won't go easy on us, we need to be ready for anything."

Joseph: I understand that, but it's too early to worry: Around 100 years ago, Jules Verne wrote a book about going all forty thousand kilometers around the world in 80 days, and that was back when all they had was the steam engine.

"Yeah, I read the book once when I was little"

Jotaro: You read French literature Y/n ?

"I have some French origins from my mother's side."

Joseph: I see, but back on topic, Egypt is only about 10000 kilometers away, so we should be able to reach it under 50 days.

Joseph: We'll charter a boat and go around Malaysia and land in India, before taking the Silk Road the rest of the way.

Abdul: I agree, that's the best route, going that way by land introduces a lot of problems, like the Himalayas and the deserts, making it easier to trap us.

Kakyoin: I've honestly never gone either route, so I trust your judgment.

"Me neither, so I'll follow you on that one"

Jotaro: Same here.

Joseph: The only problem is the enemy. Dio probably has stand users everywhere ! How're we to get into Egypt undetected ?

"We need to keep our guard up, they may be planning an attack as we speak"

Suddenly, Kakyoin tilted the teapot lit, earning confused gazes from Jotaro and me.

Kakyoin: You see, this is a sign that you want it refilled. In Hong-Kong, if you remove the lid and tilt it like this, it signals the staff that you want a refill.

Kakyoin: Then someone should come and give you one. While they're here, it's customary to make 2 taps on the table with your fingers, as a silent "thank you".

"You already came here Kakyoin ?"

Kakyoin: Yes, I used to travel a lot with my family before... well you know...

"Yes, sorry to bring that up"

Kakyoin: It's okay, don't worry too much about it.

???: Pardonnez-moi...

We all turned around, to be met with what looked like a foreigner, judging by the fact that he can speak French.

Absolutely-not-a-new-villain: I am a French tourist, and afraid to say, a little lost. This menu is a complete mystery to me, I don't know what any of it says, pouvez-vous m'aider ?

Jotaro: Get lost. We're busy right now.

Joseph: Hey hey Jotaro... It's always fine to help out.

"Don't mind his behavior, it's always a pleasure to meet a fellow foreigner"

French guy: Yeah, I heard that you had some French origins, is that true ?

"En effet, du côté de ma mère, pour être exact. "

French guy : Well, you certainly know a lot about the language, you were to France before ?

"Actually, I've spent most of my childhood in France"

French guy: I see..

"Mr.Joestar, did you finished translate the menu ? "I said, joking.

Joseph: Actually, yes, I just finished, I ordered, shrimps, mushrooms, duck, and fish fins.

Our orders finally arrived, and let's just say it wasn't what I was expecting...

'Note to self, never trust Mr.Joestar when it comes to food...'

Joseph: Wahahahahahahahahaha !! Well, this is fine, everyone eat up ! It's on me !

Timeskip after lunch:

Joseph: Well, that was good, whatever it was.

"I don't think I want to know..."

French guy: Well, this was certainly cut well. Check out this carrot.

French guy: It's star-shaped...As a matter of fact, it looks like something I've seen before...

Everyone:....

French guy: Oh yeah, it was someone I know. He had a birthmark shaped like this... if I recall...

"It can't be..."

Kakyoin: You bastard...You're a...

Kakyoin couldn't finish that sentence, as something suddenly something busted out of the porridge.

'I knew something was off with that food!'

Abdul: Mr.Joestar, look out !

The figure revealed itself to be a rapier and attacked Mr.Joestar, who could parry the attack right in time, thanks to his mechanical hand.

Joseph: It's a stand !

Abdul: [MAGICIAN'S RED ]!

Abdul summoned his stand and launched a fire stream , but it somehow managed to deflect the flames with it sword, twirling them around like they were some kind of spaghetti, before fully revealing itself, as some sort of armored guy.

It then launched the flames that was around it sword, spreading them to one of the tables in the restaurant, creating some sort of flaming clock.

Jotaro: Wh...what the fuck, a sword did that ?!

'that's certainly some swordsmanship skills'

French guy: My stand is represented by the chariot card...[SILVER CHARIOT] !!

French guy: Mohammed Abdul, I want to fight you first...I've made a clock of fire on that table, you'll die before it'll hit the 12 !!



At first I thought I could fit the entire silver chariot arc into one chapter, but it's just too long, so I'll split it .




Until then...Stand Proud everyone !!
