☆ Who the hell is ZIO?☆

-

Before you knew it, you were on a plane to Cairo.

You were sat between Kakyoin and Jotaro while Mr. Joestar and Avdol sat across the aisle.

You sat up straight but you were relatively tired, and you didn't feel any energy that would predict a stand was being used.

-

After what felt like forever you sensed the energy of a stand being sent out. You wake up and start looking around.

The boys next to you take note of what you're doing after you stand up.

"What's wrong, Akira?" Kakyoin asks.

"There's a stand user onboard."

You look to Avdol, who took note of your behavior, and mouthed the word 'stand' to him.

Avdol alerted Mr. Joestar, and by now everyone in the group was standing up.

Just then you heard a bug fly by your ear, and it landed on Jotaro's face.

"Kujo, it's on your cheek."

"What is it? A rhinoceros beetle?" he responds.

"It's a stag beetle," Kakyoin tells him.

"Jotaro, watch out, there's a stand u-" Avdol starts, but then the beetle attempts to open Jotaro's mouth, only to be stopped by Star Platinum.

"Tower of Gray," you whisper while looking at it. "Rips out it's victim's tongues, responsible for multiple catastrophes, but notably plane crashes."

It quickly escapes Star Platinum's grasp, and Star Platinum is unable to grab it again.

"It's faster than Star Platinum," Avdol observes with a shocked tone.

Just then, the stand cuts through the seats, and makes multiple innocent people his victims. The stand begins taunting you all, and takes the blood from his victims to write 'massacre' on the wall, taunting your group the whole time. You were disgusted by the sight, but more than anything, you were pissed.

At the same time, an old man gets up and starts to head towards the bathroom. He sticks his hand against the wall, and feels the blood. Before he can cause a scene, Kakyoin chops the back of his neck.

The stand moves around the plane, attempting to attack the five of you.

"Out of the way," Avdol moves forward, "Magician's Red will burn him to a crisp."

"Avdol, slow down. If you use Magician's Red, you run the risk of blowing up this whole plane." You stop him before he can use his stand.

"What do you suggest, Akira?" He asks you.

"It's fast, we'll need speed to take care of it," you look at Kakyoin and whisper into his ear,

"Snake Hierophant Green underneath the seats, I'll use my stand to launch attacks to distract him. Once you think the time is right, attack him."

He nods.

You take out your blade and place small cuts in the center of your hands.

"The Universe," you call out your stand as you hold your palm out. The blood that's dripping from your hand starts to extend, the cells and plasma multiply at a fast rate and harden upon impact with the ground. They fly in all directions, purposefully just missing each time in an attempt to distract the beetle.

Your attempts had become futile, and the beetle was heading straight for your face.

"Akira! Watch out!" Mr. Joestar called out.

Just before it could make its landing, you bit your tongue to cause it to bleed. You hardened the blood in your mouth so it couldn't enter. Tower of Gray continued to try to enter your mouth. The stand was growing apparently frustrated, which caused you to smile a little. You turned to Kakyoin and nodded.

Hierophant Green's tentacles shot out from under the seats while you ducked, and impaled the stand. This caused the old man from before to spew blood. You willed the blood to return into your body.

"Nice , Kakyoin." you said to him.

He smiled and said, "You weren't too bad yourself, Akira."

While you were all staring down at the stand user he then started mumbling something then you heard "I swear on ZIOs name"

"Who the hell is ZIO?" You and kakyoin questioned

"Lord DIOs only daughter-" the old man answered

The user was then cut off by you "Wait a damn minute" You felt a shift, like the plane was tilting. Worrying about the state of the pilots, you make your way to the cockpit.

Two flight attendants stand in front of you to block your path.

"You can't go in there, it's for the crew only," one of them said.

"Excuse me ladies, but I fear this is an emergency," you make direct eye contact with both of them. "let me by, I'll repay you at a later date, if you know what I mean." They blush and nod.

Walking into the cockpit, you discover the gruesome scene of the two pilots dead on the floor, tongues ripped out. You check for a pulse but get none.

You stick your head out the door and get Avdol and Mr. Joestar's attention.

They began to head over, Mr. Joestar first, followed by Jotaro, followed by Kakyoin that decided to romance the flight attendants after Jotaro harshly pushed them to the side. Avdol walked in last, partially blocking the flight attendants from seeing the dead bodies in the room.

"Mr. Joestar, the pilots don't have a pulse and this plane is going down. I vaguely remember you telling me about the time you piloted a plane, so hop to it."

Before Mr. Joestar could sit down, the stand user from before crawls and attempts to get into the cockpit. "You'll never reach Lord DIO, the people he has coming after you surpass my skill greatly! You Joestar fools!"

He then drops dead. You go to check for a fleshbud, but one isn't present.

"He really was just truly evil. Regardless," you turn to Avdol, "this answers two of my many questions."

Mr. Joestar puts on the headphones and attempts to communicate with the closest major location, which would have been Hong Kong.

Jotaro walks to the flight attendants, and says to them "You ladies didn't even make any noise, you must be trained professionals." The tone of his voice made you a tad flustered, and it looked like the flight attendants feel the same. He began again, "I need you two to go put life jackets on the passengers, we need to make a water landing." They immediately followed his order, and came back to the group.

Mr. Joestar starts, "You know, I've been in two plane crashes before, this'll be my third!"

"Yare yare, That's not really something to be proud of, Mr. Joestar," you say with your usual stoic look.

"Remind me to never fly with you again, gramps," Jotaro says while pulling down his hat.
