194. I'm Feelin'...

Jotaro talks to Josuke, Okuyasu, and Koichi in Morioh.

Irene grabs Jotaro's leg.

Josuke laughs.

"Yo. Irene! What the heck do you think you're doing!?" he laughed.

"Haha!" laughed Okuyasu. "Whatcha doin' there, little girl? In fact, who is she?"

"My daughter," said Jotaro.

"HUH!?" asked the trio.

"YOUR DAUGHTER!?" asked Koichi.

Echoes ACT 3 emerged from Koichi. "S-H-I-T... What a plot twist!!!"

"ACT 3... Honestly..." Koichi bowed his head.

"What the fu-... I mean shit!? You have a daughter!?" asked Okuyasu.

"That's still a swear word... and yes. This is my daughter..." said Jotaro.

"What's she doing?" asked Josuke. "She looks like she's feelin' blue..."

"She's playing starfish. A weird creature that wasn't really a Stand latched unto her leg, and I killed it since it hurt her last week."

Irene has a bandage on her leg.

"Ever since then, Irene would cling to my leg and call it 'Playing Starfish...'" said Jotaro.

"Anyways..." said Jotaro, as he turned to Josuke.

Irene turns red and got angry as she bit into Jotaro's leg.

"Ouch," said Jotaro, as he turns to Irene. "Irene... just stay over there in the dining area."

Irene frowns, stomps her feet, and walks away.

"Anyways... About this person... Shiobana Haruno..."

 

Jotaro faced against DIO.

DIO backed away in fear. He took a few steps backward, trembling in fear.

"Tch-! Tch-!"

Jotaro gave Giorno to Josuke as Jotaro approached DIO.

"Y-Your hands... are healed!?" asked DIO.

"You didn't do your research on Josuke, huh?"

Jotaro blasted Star Platinum Over Heaven toward DIO.

"ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA-!!!"

"MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDA-!!!"

However... Jotaro somehow blasts DIO's arms into pieces.

"H-HOW!?"

"You were already severely damaged by Gold Experience Requiem... Your Stand may not require Stamina, but your body still does... Even gods are breakable..."

DIO knelt on the ground, bleeding all over. "WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!"

"I told you before... You know the drill..."

DIO backed away.

"Backing away are you?" asked Jotaro, as he approached DIO.

"J-Jotaro... G-Giorno... NO!!! This isn't supposed to be how it all ends!!!"

"No... it isn't..."

"RON-KA!!!"

*SPLAT*

Stefan blasts a hole into DIO's chest.

"You fool... You cannot age me to death..."

"Oh... Lord DIO..." whispered Stefan. "You may be immortal... But that body of yours is Jonathan Joestar's... And you haven't completed the Joestar Blood... Since you still haven't taken Irene Kujo's blood..."

DIO gasped as the body below his neck began to rot.

"Behold... My second Stand..." said Stefan, as he revealed a large, buff, muscular, and green Stand with Rock Bottom's signature Easter Island Head for its own. "The Climb..."

DIO's body rotted as his face dropped to the ground.

"I... DIO..." said DIO... whispering... begging to live...

"Oh... DIO..." said Stefan. "It was a good six months with you... I'm sorry... But you're too obsessed with hating these people...I see now... that I should not listen to my ego... I should not listen to my hate... rather... You are... far too consumed in wrath and vengeance. I am done with letting that consume me. I should enact your plan out of love... I will destroy all life and create a new world... a world made in heaven."

DIO trembled.

Stefan puts his foot over DIO's head.

"Kono... DIO... DA!!!" DIO hissed. "I SHALL... RETURN!!!"

"Yes... Yes, you are... And no... you won't..."

Stefan stomped on DIO's head as his brains and blood splatter all over the ground.

DIO's eyeball rolls over to Jotaro, as the eyeball turns and looks at Jotaro. Jotaro stares at the eyeball.

DIO... is dead... once more...

Stefan's eyes slowly rise and meet Jotaro's eyes. "The Parts... Give them... to me..."

"You healed..." said Jotaro.

"Fortisites heal quick... That wasn't nearly as powerful as Miguel JoJo's punches... or rather... not nearly as fast..." said Stefan. "Now... The Parts..."

Stefan clenched his fists. "Give them to me."

Stefan slowly approached Jotaro.

Jotaro's eyes widen as his heart beats faster. He took a few steps back. "Josuke... grab Giorno and stay behind me!"

Stefan approached Jotaro.

Jotaro clenched his jaw.

"JOSUKE!!!"

*ZOOM!!!*

"No..." said Stefan.

Polnareff grabbed and brought Jotaro, Josuke, and Giorno back into the Turtle's Shell.

"Mob!?" asked Jotaro, seeing Mob knocked out next to Saitama, Goku, and Vegeta.

Josuke immediately went to them and healed them.

"We found Mob laying in the jungle... We don't know how he got there..." said Gappy. "The others thought he was with us..."

Mob wakes up, trembling. "I-I was trying to find you guys... but Eobard took the o-others... I... f-f-found... someone... who... I think.. y-you... know... She helped... me..."

"She!?" asked Jotaro.

Someone grabs Jotaro's leg.

Jotaro's eyes widen as tears flow down his face.

"Jotaro-san... are you-?" Josuke asked, seeing that Jotaro is crying.

Jotaro looks down and sees Irene.

"Starfish?" she smiled.

Jotaro stares at Irene in shock. He slowly lowers down to her level. Tears flow down both his eyes. "Irene..." he whispered. Jotaro immediately sobbed. Jotaro checked Irene for wounds and looked everywhere to see if she's okay. She is. He immediately hugged Irene, tight.

"Daddy... you're too strong..." said Irene.

"G-Gome!" yelled Jotaro, letting go. "H-How?"

"I couldn't find Mom... DIO punched her... She went, 'poof'... So I walked around and found a jungle... then I saw Shigeo-Kun..."

Jotaro grabbed his face and wept some more.

"Thank you..." said Jotaro, as Mob nodded to him.

Jotaro sobbed and hugged his daughter, kissing her everywhere on the face. "Tch-! Tch-!"

"I was feelin' blue..." said Irene. "Like Josuke said."

Josuke began sobbing as well... trembling...

Giorno smiled and went teary.

"Maybe... There is hope... To bring everyone back... To bring everyone we lost back..."

"Hey, Gappy," said Reigen, walking in, holding a tray of fries. "The Fries are done. Whoa! Where are the others?"
