"Have you ever wondered why the moon here is in pieces?" Josuke asked his granduncle Giorno "Now that you mentioned it, I do. Have you ever tried asking your faunus friend about it?" The blond asked. "Well, nah. It didn't came to mind whenever I'm with her." The pompadour said with a goofy smile.

. . .

"Come on, come ON!" Yang screamed, excited to see her beloved Joseph's adventure's conclusion. The rest can't deny the growing anxiety they felt at the huge possibility of Kars' survival.

The next episode began with seemingly a flashback, showing an old stone wall with carvings on it as the Narrator spoke. "Long ago, an already extraordinary man wished for further power. He could live like the birds, dwell with the fish, breathe like the trees, and move like the water. But he could not face the sun." An outline of Kars appeared, posing before he pulled out a stone mask.

"We're finally getting the Pillar Men backstory." Blake said. "I'd be lying if I said I didn't find their origins interesting. I've always wanted to know!" Weiss said. "Fuck it, I wanna see Kars die first!" Yang disagreed. "Shushush!" Ruby shushed.

"One day he would befriend the sun, and the world would be his!" He placed the mask upon his face and the tendrils sunk into his flesh, as the sun rose behind his body. The screen suddenly cut back to the volcano, skipping the opening as the title flashed across the screen.

"Wait, is that it?" Blake asked. "That's not a backstory at all!" Weiss pouted.

Episode 26: The Ascendant One.

"Final episode, girls! I can't wait to see my baby's ending! But at the same time I'm kinda sad..." Yang frowned. "Oh please, I had it worse, my crush only had 9 episodes and he died in the end." Weiss brushed her off. "But atleast we get to see him shirtless!" Yang cooed and squeezed the heiress' now crimsom cheeks.

Kars was in the midst of melting, unable to free himself.
"You… worms…"

"We got him!" Joseph cheered, clenching his fist triumphantly.

"Not yet." Blake mumbled.

"I-I need armor. Like a clam or a crab…" The flesh along Kars' arm began shifting, turning into an armored carapace. "I'll make armor. I'll cover myself..!" The rest of his body followed, and soon he was standing in the magma and no longer on fire. Stroheim, Joseph and the team gasped, but soon enough Kars' body was once again burning, even the armor unable to withstand the extreme temperatures. "FUUUUUUUUUUUUUAAAAAAHHK! IT'S NOT ENOUGH!"

"WOOO! So satisfying! After every misery and death your creation caused!" Ruby cheered.

Joseph slammed his hand into the ground and grinned. "It's melted rock, you fucking dumbass! It's over a thousand degrees! No organism on Earth has adapted to it as far as I know! You're gonna burn to a crisp!" Joseph stood and fist pumped.
"GARBLARGABRGLARGA-" while Kars continued gurgling in agony. The flesh along his face began to disintegrate, before an explosion went off, sending more smoke into the air and magma splattering.

At this point, the team were already accustomed to the gory side of JoJo. So it didn't bother them that much.

"YEOW!" Stroheim turned his face away as a wave of heat slammed into them, before Joseph looked down into the crater, to find that Kars was no longer there, instead a bubbling pool of magma in his place.

"Is he finally gone?" Weiss asked. "Err, my gut says no. I'm not sure why." Blake mumbled. "CREMATE KARS!" Ruby yelled. "YEAH, AND LETS MAKE A SANDCASTLE WITH HIS ASHES." Yang followed up with a smile.

"T-That did it! WE DID IT! WE WON! WE BEAT KAAAAAAARS!" Joseph threw his fist to the sky, cheering towards the sun. Stroheim huffed for air as Joseph laughed.

Yang's heart exploded at Joseph's cute laugh "AWWWWW! My God, I wanna marry him so bad!" The rest of the team smiled at Joseph's adorable celebration.

The sun causing the Joestar's sweat to shine as they thought the battle finished. Joseph continued laughing victoriously until the ground around them began cracking.

"They have to get out of there!" Ruby said, alarmed. "Yeah, Kars might be dead but the volcano sure ain't." The faunus said in agreement.

"JOJO! THE SHOCK TRIGGERED AN EXPLOSION, LETS GET TO SAFETY BEFORE HAVING A TOAST!" Stroheim sternly said.

Joseph grinned at his companion and walked over, bending down. "Yeah! Hang on tight!" As Joseph grabbed Stroheim, the shot panned down to reveal the rock beginning to shatter and crack violently. The cracks in the rock began expanding as the scene switched to an over the view shoulder of behind Joseph, who was still smiling victoriously.

Blake's ribbon fell as her ears wriggled like crazy. RWY were about to ask her what's wrong but they didn't have enough time before the next scene happened.

The crack expanded, moving under him until-

SCHWING!

In a single moment, a familiar blade of light cut through the screen and transformed the color scheme, causing Joseph to drop Storheim in slow motion and fall to the side… as his hand and forearm were sliced off and removed from his arm.

RWBY's mouth were wide agape, speechless at the sudden action and violence onscreen.

"NGG?!" Joseph let out a single gurgle of pain and shock, Stroheim's eyes and mouth widened in terror, and the speakers blasted out a song of Aztecian Dubstep.

AYAYAYAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

"WHAAAAAAT THE FUUUUUUCK?!" Yang screamed. "NOOOOOOO!" Ruby screamed as well. "I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT! I KNEW IT!" Blake yelled. "WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON? HOW?!" Weiss shrieked in terror.

Kar's hand was reaching out of the crack in the ground, covered in armor, as Joseph's hand fell in slow motion. Joseph looked towards the crack as his eyes dilate and shook, watching as Kars' other arm exited to help pull himself from the crack, before a burst of magma launched the Ultimate Lifeform out. Kars landed in a very fabulous crouch, body steaming and browned from the massive amounts of heat, and as Joseph's hand finally hit the ground, the camera showed Kars' crustaceous mask which cracked to reveal Kars' smirk.

"HE'S ALIIIIIIVE!" RWBY exclaimed. They expected him to be, but they didn't expect him to grieviously harm Joseph in the process of his comeback.

Joseph finally seemed to realize that his arm was gone, and he grasped it as he screamed in pain, and Kars leaped through the air behind him, shedding his armor. Stroheim watched in shock and Kars landed, his armor gone and standing as if he had never fallen in the lava in the first place. Joseph, meanwhile, fell to his knees as his arm poured blood, his screams continuing "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGHHHHHHHH!"

"Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm! What a wonderful sound. It's music to my ears. I've been longing to hear that sound from you, JoJo!" Kars hummed with composed excitement.

"Kars..! You bastard!" Yang's eye twitched, flashing from lavander to crimson.

A puddle began to form beneath the Joestar, as Stroheim focused on Kars. "Kars… BUT HOW?!" Stroheim looked down and saw a fallen piece of Kars' shell, zooming in on it with his robotic eye. "A bit of his shell…" As he was able to see it's inner structure, he shivered. "I see. KARS…"

"What's in that thing?!" Weiss asked. "What is it composed of to be able to withstood magma?! As far as I know, organic objects can't last in magma! And Kars' power is having access to anything organic, right?"

The Narrator was quick to explain. "First, Kars covered himself in a shell like a crab. But it was still organic. It couldn't withstand the lava's heat and burned away instantly. Kars' secret was in a second layer of armor!" The screen showed Kars melting in the lava and sinking below the surface before his armor reformed around him. "That second layer… was bubbles! The bubbles created a layer of air between Kars' body and the lava. As the outer layer burned, more bubbles came up to replace it. Kars could survive in lava for a few minutes."

Weiss was shocked at Kars' cunning. Blake shook her head "He's sly as always..."
Ruby stared in horror "His ability is so OP!"
Yang didn't care and just glared furiously at the screen. "Is that even possible?! I need to take a trip to the library ASAP!" The heireds huffed.

After a diagram appeared to show the air layer separating the heat from the lava and his body, Kars began punching through the rock, before shooting up to cut through Joseph's arm in first person. A picture of the Earth appeared, Kars closing his hands around it. "The Earth gave birth to life. But now! Alas, in the end… Kars had conquered the Earth!"

"He is mad... He is mad!" Weiss declared. "He is mad and in charge... He is powerful..!" Blake gulped in terror.

The screen suddenly showed a molten wasteland, lava bubbling up from the ground before showing a group of fabulous muscular men and women standing below the light of the moon.

"Wait! This is it!" Blake said as Weiss' eyes glistened. "The backstory..." the leader and the heiress said in unison whilst the brawler was just breathing heavily in the background.

"Long, long ago, far earlier than man's first recorded history a certain group of creatures evolved on our planet. They could only live at night, as they died when exposed to the sun, so they lived below ground." The narrator narrated.

Winding roads ran up to a tree-like structure, the Narrator continuing. "Even without the sun, they led long lives feeding on other living things. Early humans that appeared feared them as Gods or demons."

"So they are like a superior race..." Ruby muttered. "Superior enough to be considered deities from the looks of it." Blake mumbled.

"Few died, so they did not have many children, and their population was small. They knew no strife and lived in peace." As a temple flashed by and a banquet table appeared, a man's foot moved off-screen, then revealed to be Kars'. "But then… a genius was born among them."

"Kars." The team all whispered.

The skeletons of drained victims flashed on the screen, as Kars looked at his hand. "There is strength hidden in this body, abilities undreamed of. I will unlock greater power!" A familiar mask appeared, spikes writhing.

"THE STONE MASK!" Ruby yelped. "We can see that, Ruby, thank you very much!" Weiss snarked. "You're welcome." The leader quickly replied.

"The genius created a stone mask." Kars placed it on his face, and the spikes shot into him, causing a beam of light to explode upwards. "The mask granted him undying power, but he required more life energy. He had to consume more creatures to live. If left unchecked, he would eventually consume all life. His brethren began to fear the mask and its gifted creator!"

"So he is like a mad scientist! Santana is the minion, Wamuu is the fighter, Esidisi is the warlord." Weiss enumerated, trying to make sense of the four's hierarchy. "He didn't look the type to be honest. Esidisi, maybe. But Kars..? Nah." Ruby said.

Two rows of the beings kneeled in front of another being, before the scene flashed to Kars, turning to see several more of his race roaring.

"His existence is a threat!"

"He has to be removed from this world!"

"We have to destroy him!" An old woman that looked alot like Kars said.

"Wait, could that possibly be his mom?" Ruby asked.

Kars turned, holding his mask. "IMBECILE! Don't you wish to conquer the sun? Don't you wish to rule over all? Don't you wish to purge your fears?!" None answered and were determined to take him down.

"You are crazy, Kars. You meant well but-" the faunus was interrupted.

"…Then die." Kars said in a venomous tone. The others of his race jumped towards him, wielding various weapons, while Kars stood back to back with Esidisi, and sliced the screen twice.

"That's Esidisi!" Ruby pointed out.

The bodies of all of his race littered the ground, and the Narrator began once more
"The genius slaughtered all his brethren, including the parents who raised him."

"He massacred his entire race?!" Weiss asked in disbelief. "He is not crazy, he is insane!" Blake exclaimed. "Wait, then where is Wamuu and Sa-" the leader was interrupted.

"He and one companion took the two surviving babies and left. They set off on a journey in search of ultimate power. And ten thousand years later, that power was in his hands!" Kars and Esidisi were holding the perfect slav squat before leaping off with the pillar babies.

RWB were astonished, Yang was still pouting, trying to calm herself down. She listened through everything. "Wamuu is younger than Kars. That's just weird..!" Ruby muttered, comparing Wamuu's rugged looks to Kars' pretty and feminine face.

In the present, Stroheim was still looking on with shock. "He's a god. HE'S BECOME A GOD! HUMANS CAN'T STAND AGAINST A GOD, JOJO! JOJOOOO!"
"ARGH-SHUT UP!"
"Submission... Is our only chance!" Stroheim fearfully whispered as Avalon began to play once more, while Joseph kept kneeling and holding his arms, making short grunts as he attempted to fight through the pain.

"Joseph..." Ruby said with concern as Weiss and Blake looked at the Joestar with pity.

Kars held a hand to his ear as he did so, tilting his head. "What was that? Did you just say something, JoJo?"

"You smug fuck!" Yang snarled.

Joseph looked up slightly, sweat running down his face before a growl escaped his throat. "HurrrrrRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGHHH!" It grew in volume into a yell, and the ringing of Hamon sounded out. He shot up, suddenly spinning and kicking at Kars with a massive burst of Hamon energy. "EAT SHIT! HAMON OVERDRIVE!"

"It'a not gonna do anything!" Blake called out. "I DON'T CARE! KICK HIS TEETH IN!" Yang cheered angrily.

"Ha… mon?" Kars brought his arm up, before slamming his elbow into Joseph's leg and stopping the attack while blood erupted from the point of contact. "Did you JUST SAY 'HAMON OVERDRIIIIVE'?!"

"WHAT NOW?!" Weiss shrieked as Yang roared in anger. "Did he broke his knee?" Ruby squeaked as Blake shook her head in hopelessness.

"AAAAAAAGGGHHHHAAA!"
"JOJOOOOOO!"
Joseph flew back and tumbled across the ground as Stroheim called his name in horror. Joseph's knee was melting, glowing molten gold like the lava nearby as steam rose from the wound.

Joseph looked at his knee in complete surprise and horror. "That fucking... This sensation! I'm melting! No! My leg is melting!"

RWBY's mouth dropped once more as the realization hit them, seeing that familiar glow in Joseph's wound. It can only be that thing.

"WHAT?! IT'S LIKE... ARE YOU TELLING ME HE USED…!" Stroheim yelled.

"NO! THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!" Joseph replied.

"It is! That was Hamon, you dimwit!" Kars swept his arm through the air triumphantly. "I conquered the sun, and you still thought Hamon was beyond me?! What is wrong with you?"
Joseph squeaked "Ah well, you see..."

Blake raised her hands in disbelief "I told you!"
"Great! This is just great!" Ruby jeered sarcastically. "He has hamon now, how can it get any wor-" the heiress was interrupted. "GRRRRRRAAAAAAAGHHH! I'M GONNA GO INSANE, I'M SO READY TO TEAR THAT TV TO PIECES!" Yang roared in anger. "Shhh, calm down, sister... Joseph hates hot headed women, caaaaalm dowwwwn." Ruby rubbed her arm soothingly. "H-HE DOES?" The blonde asked.

"W-What?!" Joseph exclaimed.
"And it looks like my Hamon is hundreds of times more potent than yours." Kars boasted.

"It makes sense, he is the perfect being, so he has the perfect hamon... HOW ARE THEY GONNA BEAT HIM?!" Weiss asked. "Then that means the blade he used to slice off Joseph's arm was several times more powerful than what he used to tear Stroheim apart. Not that he needs that much sharpness since Stroheim's metal appendages are tougher than Joseph's flesh and bone..." Blake narrated.

"HUNDRED TIMES MORE POTENT?!" Stroheim's eyes widened in realization as he thought to himself. 'IT'S LIKE BEING BURNED BY THE SUN ITSELF! HIS LEG IS MELTING AND VAPORIZING!'

"Geez, even Stroheim's inner thoughts are loud..." Ruby muttered as her sister finally calmed down, albeit not completely.

"So how do you like that taste of your own medicine?" Kars asked.
"IIAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGHHHH!" Joseph began screaming again, writhing as he grasped at his leg which caused Kars to smile. "What a wonderful response. Well, let me ease your suffering."

Stroheim screamed to Joseph as Kars calmly walked forward, unable to help. "JOJO! DAMNIT, I CAN'T DO ANYTHING!"
Kars paused and told Stroheim "You wait right there... I'll kill you soon." Before advancing towards the Joestar slowly but dramatically.

Despair was closing in, the team can only watch in horror as Joseph's impending doom approaches him.

Joseph's head finally fell back, an empty look on his face. 'This is it… I'm gonna fucking die. It's over for me.'

"... No!" Yang tearfully whimpered but the rest are still hoping it won't end this way. "Jonathan made sure Dio went down with him, come on, Joseph! I know you can think of something!" Weiss cheered.

'Atleast I can smile at the fact that it took the ultimate lifeform to kill Joseph Joestar...' Joseph thought as he accepted his fate.

"JoJo accepted this fact completely. He felt no fear, no pain, no regret. He thought, 'I did all I could.' Before the epitome of evil, he watched his dying self with ice-cold awareness." the view switched to Stroheim, watching the inevitable. "Stroheim was no different. Unable to move, he felt like he knew how it felt to be a frog swallowed by a snake."

"What is it with this show and weird analogies?" Blake complained.

"This way of breathing… Koooooooooooh!" Kars began glowing and ringing just as Joseph did. "To send a Hamon-user like you into the depths of the afterlife... Like you did my comrades. Isn't it poetic, JoJo? Mmm, the irony." Kars posed and red electricity burst to life around him before he shot forward.

"HIS HAMON IS RED." Ruby screamed, if the strongest hamon users like Lisa Lisa and Jonathan can only produce orange/yellow sparks, she can only imagine how powerful red sparks are.
"Joseph isn't undead, hamon won't melt him right away!" Weiss screamed reassuring herself that Joseph can still survive. "You're right! His knee wasn't gone completely, he might still survive this!" Blake said. "JOSEPH! DO SOMETHING! PLEASE!" Yang begged.

Joseph, still laying on the ground and staring at nothing, had one thought: 'Hamon… Far greater than mine… Whatever...' Kars reached up, preparing to kill "Go to hell!"

The team screamed in terror.

As Kars' hand shot towards his face, Joseph's eyes seemingly brightened with life again. 'Wait... Hamon?!' The screen went black… until the forgotten Red Stone of Aja moved into view, held in Joseph's palm. Kars' hand flew towards it, and all three looked on in shock as Kars gasped.

"WHAT?!" Kars once again gasped as light flew by his face. "The Red Stone!"

"IT CAN AMPLIFY HAMON! NOW WHAT?!" Ruby yelled. The rest gasped at the sudden twist.

As soon as his fingers tapped it, a beam of concentrated energy erupted from it, piercing Joseph's hand and shooting through the volcano below them. The beam of energy widened considerably, disintegrating rocks as it went, starting a chain reaction that would lead to the most bullshit yet awesome villain takedown in history.

"The Red Stone of Aja! Why did JoJo hold the Red Stone towards Kars? Even he didn't know!" The scenes replayed, with a grainy filter. "It was instinctive. He felt the Red Stone being drawn toward Hamon like magnet to a refrigerator!"

"Once again..." Blake rolled her eyes at the analogy.

Sai! Wa nagerareta susumu shikanaiiii! (The die is cast! He can do nothing but advance)

"HUMANITY HAS PRODUCED A GENIUS TOO, IN YOUR FACE, KARS!" Weiss cheered. Yang's face brightened up once more. This is the moment she was hoping for.
"That voice! I knew it from somewhere!" Ruby said, recognizing the manly voice.

Suddenly, as Kars' hand touched the stone, scenes of Battle Tendency began to flash by as a familiar song began to play. "But JoJo's body understood. His body moved in order to survive by its own instinct."

"JOSEPH WILL SURVIVE!" Weiss raised her arms up and cheered.

Kimyō na, rasen no naka korogaritsuzukeeeeeru (The eternally-wandering adventurer)

"MY DARLING IS ALIVE!" Yang stood up in happiness. "Its from the first opening, Ruby." Blake smiled, a tear of joy flowing down her cheek in relief. 'Looks like he won't meet the same fate as you, Jonathan...'

"JoJo's will to live pushed his body into action!" Kars watched in confusion and rage as he was blasted back a step, and JoJo looked at him with renewed willpower.

Elen wo samayō bōkensha... (tumbles through a bizarre spiral)

"T-The Red Stone... Is a Hamon amplifier." Joseph muttered. Kars simply stared at Joseph, trying to figure out what happened. Or what is about to happen.

Kyōfu wo mitome! Tatsu mono ni ōgon no tamashī wo! (A golden soul for the man who conquers his fears)

Suddenly, the ground beneath them began to rumble and shake. "That energy made the volcano's eruption reach a sudden peak!" Lava was shown bubbling up beneath the earth, before exploding with immense force beneath the stone that Joseph and Kars were on while blasting the screaming Storheim away to safety.

"BOOOOOOOM!" Yang screamed.

Joseph and Kars were launched into the sky on a pillar of molten rock, high into the atmosphere.

"LOOK AT THAT!" Blake exclaimed as the awesome visuals of blue sparks engulfing the eruption that launched them was very eye pleasing.
"OH MY GOOOOSH! THAT'S SO FREAKING AWESOME!" Ruby cheered as Weiss smiled "Hehe... Hehe! Yeah!"

Soshite de atta futari no tame ni... tatakai wo! (Fighting for the two who met, Fight)

"T-THAT SLAB OF ROCK THEY ARE ON... WAS BLASTED OFF HIGH IN TO THE SKYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!" Stroheim never fails to deliver his lines with passion.

"Stroheim is safe! Good to know!" Blake smiled. "SIT TIGHT, STROHEIM!" Yang said.

(JoJo! JoJo! JoJo! JoJo! JoJo!)

Maku ga aita you na owarinaki monogatari! (The curtain rises on an endless tale)

"Wryryryryryryry-"
Joseph and Kars were pressed against the rock due to the force of the eruption as they flew higher and higher. "S-Such tremendous force!"

Ruby started wheezing "What was that wrywrywry?" She squeaked as the heiress next to her chuckled.

Inochi ga butsukaru hibanaaaaa! seishun no hibi wo terase yo! (Let the sparks as lives clash cast light on the days of your youth)

Kimi to iu mirai ni 'Kōun' wooooo! (May fortune shine on the future you bring!)

"GIIIIEEEEEHHHH!"
The slab flew by, with smaller chunks trailing it, before Kars began to get up.

"It's Kars!" Yang laughed, answering her sister's previous question.

"But do you think a mere eruption will be stop the almighty Kars?!" Kars leaped off the slab, spreading his wings.

"Oh no... Oh no..!" Ruby mumbled. "Relax, baby! Weiss' husband's theme is playing! Jonathan has Joseph's back!" Yang reassured her.

"I'll sprout wings and fly in to safety! You are dying alone... This is our final farewell, JoJo!" Kars boasted as he flapped his wings. Joseph stared in horror at the realization. But luck was on his side...

"Oh great, now he's-" the faunus was interrupted however.

Sono chi no sadame… JoooooooooJo! (The fate of that blood… JoooooooooJo!)

As Kars began to fly away, leaving Joseph to his fate, Joseph was suddenly given a hand!

His chopped off limb flew up, impacting with Kars' throat with so much force that it pierced his flesh and drew blood, stunning the Ultimate Lifeform as he choked.

"OHHHHHHH!" RWBY yelled out. "I AM TOO EXCITED TO MAKE A HAND PUN BUT ITS IN THERE SOMEWHERE!" Yang jumped up and down. "THE HAND GOT U- HOW DID IT NOT GET ROASTED BY THE ERUPTION?!" Blake screamed out. "YOU'RE LOOKING IN TO IT TOO MUCH! DON'T QUESTION IT, BE HAPPYYYYYYYY!" Ruby replied. "YES! GIVE HIM WHAT FOR!" Weiss cheered.

Joseph laughed at the sight, "GODBLESS MOTHER EARTH! IT SHOT MY HAND TO YOUR NECK!"

"YEAH! CHOKE ME, DADDY!" His number one fangirl screamed.

Nidoto hodokenai karamiatta sadame... (Two fates knot into one inseparably)

"NOW, KARS..!" Joseph smirked.

RWBY's grin grew wider. "Here it comes!" Ruby whispered excitedly.

What the Joestar would say next clear to all who were watching with how smug he looked. "YOU'RE GONNA SAY, 'Did you plan this too, JoJo?!' RIGHT?!"

"That is the nail to Kars' coffin!" Weiss declared. "Of course, obviously!" Blake said, giddy.

Kars looked at the Joestar with rage. "HOW DO YOU ALWAYS KNOW?!" The screen suddenly paused, the narrator speaking up.

"WHAT?!" The RWB exclaimed. "He didn't- HE DIDN'T!" Ruby looked at Weiss and Blake with panic.

Subete wa koko kara hajimatteita no saaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! (It all began at that moment)

"Oh he will." Yang smirked before humming the song with enthusiasm.

"This is the moment! The moment that sealed Kars' fate! Kars was distracted by JoJo's arm and prediction! One fatal instant!" The screen resumed, and dozens of sharp stones slammed into Kars with tremendous force, punishing him for not speaking the line that Joseph had predicted. "Molten rocks he could have dodged launched him higher!"

"Oh NOW he is screwed." The heiress crossed her arms with a smile. "It didn't look like it did lasting damage though!" Blake answered.

LET THE VOICE OF LOVE, TAKE YOU HIGHER!

Furueru hodo kokoro moetsukiru hodo atsuku! (Throbbing hearts burn as if aflame)

Kars grunted in pain as he was sent higher "Nuuuoogh! DID YOU PLAN THIS TOO, JOOOOJOOO?!"

"HE DID! OH MY GOD!" Yang smiled at her own prediction. The rest sighed in relief with a smile.
"Wait, did he really planned it all?!" Weiss asked.

Sono te kara hanate kodōooo! karada minagiru yūki deeeeE! (The pulse which beats forth from their palms)

Joseph clenched his fist in excitement, grinning his widest grin. "YOU'RE GODDAMN RIGHT! THIS FUCKING JOJO PLANNED EVERY SINGLE DETAIL..!"

RWBY's eyes widened. "THE ERUPTION, THE ARM, KARS' COMEBACK?! HE PLANNED IT ALL?!" Blake's excitement and disbelief was shown. "Oh my crud, that is actually very impressive..." Weiss muttered. "YEEEEEEAAAHHH! JOSEPH WINS AGAIN!" Ruby raised her arm.

Joseph reared back, winding up, before punching towards the sky, more rocks following his fist towards Kars. "FROM THE VERY STAAAAAAAAAAAART!"

"AAAAHHHHHHH! I WANT TO HAVE YOUR BABIES! I SWEAR TO GOD I'M GONNA MARRY YOU!" Yang declared and squealed, the team shared her enthusiasm but not to that degree.

"GIIAAAAAAOOOOOOOAAAAGGHH!" Kars screamed in despair and disbelief as a response to Joseph's absurd claims.

Mayoi naki! kakugo ni 'Kassai' wooooooh! (Bravely embracing their fate!)

As they flew up, Joseph smirked and thought to himself with glee, 'That's a total fucking lie, but I'll say anything to piss Kars off! Ha!'

Blake facepalmed but her smile was there. Weiss actually laughed at his inner thoughts. Ruby giggled "Never change, Joseph."
"I LOVE HIM EVEN MORE NOW!" Yang yelled, she was blushing very hard "I swear I'm gonna french kiss him so hard, he is gonna deep throat my tongue!"

Maku ga aita you na owarinaki monogatari! (The curtain rises on an endless tale)

"Guys, what's a french kiss?" Ruby asked, once again.

Inochi ga butsukaru hibana! seishun no hibi wo terase YO! (Let the sparks as lives clash cast light on the days of your youth)

The narrator spoke. "The material released in the eruption reached escape velocity! But even the Earth's power couldn't kill Kars!"

The team were confused for a split second. "Then how are they gonna get rid off him?" Blake asked.

"But instead…" too late, Kars retracted his wings, but he flew even higher, above the clouds, and the sky itself, before he was launched into the infinite darkness of space! "...It blasted him out of the atmosphere!"

"SPACE?!" Blake exclaimed. "OH HO, THERE IS NO GOING BACK FOR HIM!" Weiss laughed maniacally. "OUTER SPAAAAAAAAAACE!" Ruby cheered. "GOODBYE, KARSY!" Yang waved.

Kimi to iu, mirai ni 'Kōun' WOOOOOOOOO! (May fortune shine on the future you bring!)

"OH! OH! GUYS ITS THE FINAL CHORUS THINGY FINISHER!" Yang said, it made no sense but the team immediately recognized what she is talking about.

Likely recognizing what was going to happen, Kars gave one last cry from within the Earth's atmosphere. "STARS?! WHAT THE?!"

All together now.

RWBY and Hiroaki TOMMY Tominaga: SONO CHI NO SADAME! (THE FATE OF THAT BLOOD!)

JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO…

"JO..! Huh?" Yang raised an eyebrow. "IT'S STILL GOING!" Ruby yelled. "OH MY GOODNESS! THAT DRUM ROLL!" Weiss screamed. "OH YES!" Blake pumped her fists.

Joseph watched with his fist still raised, lowering it and breathing several sighs of relief as the final notes stretched on…

…JO!

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" RWBY cheered and applauded.

"HECK YEAH! THAT WAS PERFECTION!" The heiress claimed. "I love this show." Blake said with a satisfied smile. "I love Joseph." Yang adds. "Hehe, yeah..." Ruby smirked, the bad guy is finally gone.

Before Joseph let his head hang back and bask in his victory.

"Just as the part began with Joseph launching the cap out of a Coca-Cola bottle with Hamon, he ended the part by firing the cap out of a volcano with Hamon." Blake muttered. "Good catch, Blakey." Yang complimented. "Wait, how is Joseph gonna get down- oh no." Weiss uttered. "Calm dooooown, Stroheim will catch hi-him... Oh. CRUD!" Ruby cussed as she realized that Stroheim was disabled at the moment.

The rock he sat upon began curving, not having enough speed to escape the atmosphere as well, and began falling back down.

"He is above the atmosphere! You can see the ends of the planet!" Weiss said. "It must be very hard on his lungs, hamon user or not!" Blake winced. "I didn't know you were a flat worlder, Weiss." Ruby snickered. "I'm not! Shut up!" The heiress replied angrily.
"Wait, Joseph is gonna... He is gonna survive that, right?" Yang asked with fear.

"It's over." He lay down, a peaceful smile on his face. 'Granny… Stroheim… Speedwagon… Suzi... Smokey… and Lisa Lisa.' In contrast with his peaceful thoughts as he accepted his coming death, the rock shook more and more violently as it moved faster and faster.

"WH-WH-WHY DIDN'T HE MENTION CAESAR?!" Ruby asked with panic. "THE PEOPLE HE MENTIONED, WHAT DO THEY ALL HAVE IN COMMON?!" Weiss asked angrily, tears threatening to fall. "U-Uhh..!" Ruby did not know the answer. "THEY ARE ALL ALIVE!" Weiss bursted in to tears. "But... He just survive Kars... He can't die now!" Blake slowly started crying.

"Oh no no NO NO! JOSEPH!" Yang sobbed.

'Everyone… Goodbye.'

"NO!" She stood up and kneeled on the floor crying. The rest of the team lets out their tears as another member of the Joestar family died once more.

The screen faded to white.

Far below, Stroheim looked up towards the sky and shook, stuttering over his speech, before giving one last heartfelt scream towards the heavens. "J… J…. JOJOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!"

The team went silent. A moment of silence for Joseph Joestar.

"Eight hours later, Stroheim returned alive to tell Speedwagon this:"

The island belched smoke as the text appeared silently on screen, no music, no effects… just silence. 'On February 28, 1939, Joseph Joestar passed away on Isola Di Volgano.'

"He really is gone..." Blake wiped her tears away. "Why do we have to cry every JoJo ending..?" Weiss whined as she hugged her knees. "Why do they have to die in the end?" Ruby sobbed. "... Atleast he is with Caesar and his grandfather now." Yang said numbly.

High above the earth, "WABABABABAGIGIGIEEEEH!" that silence was broken by a cry from Kars.

The team glanced at eachother, before giggling "Way to ruin the mood, Kars!" Yang covered her mouth. "Ah! I feel so silly laughing in tears..." Weiss snickered. "What even was that?" Ruby wheezed and sniffed at the same time. "Pffffufufufuffft..!" Blake corpsed as she shook, silently laughing.

"I'M IN OUTER SPACE?!" He twisted around, turning his front to face the Earth as six pipes burst from his back, like Wamuu's.

"Oh don't tell me this guy is gonna return." Yang sneered. "Isn't that what Wamuu did during his Final Mode?" Blake asked. "Good catch." Weiss compliments.

They twitched around before beginning to expel air, slightly slowing his speed. "I'll use jets of air to change my trajectory and return to Earth!"
However, before he could even stop his momentum, ice slowly began creeping over his body.

"Quick! Use Esidisi's Heat Mode!" The leader said. "Ruby, do you want him to survive?" Weiss asked with annoyance. Ruby glanced at her in embarrassment before turning her attention back to Kars "Quick! Forget about everything I just said!"

It covered his pipes, arms, then all of him with a creaking and cracking sound, plugging up his pipes and freezing his face into an existential scream of horror.

"OH MY GOD!" Yang gasped, the team flinched at that still frame of Kars' terrifying face. His iris and pupils were so huge, and his mouth was opened so wide. It was horrific display of Kars' despair. "That's scary!" Ruby whimpered. "I know right?! It was out of nowhere too!" Blake agreed. "Ughh, that face will haunt me tonight..." Weiss whined.

He continued to fly farther from the Earth, unable to slow anymore. "I-It's not working! I-I'm freezing! The air is freezing around me! It turns to ice the moment it comes out of me!"

"Well, I guess this means he is gonna be gone for good." The faunus crossed her arms.

His blades broke free, slicing through the ice before freezing up as well, and he twisted his arms around before they were stuck together by the creeping ice. Wings exploded from his back and flapped before they froze over too. "I-I can't change direction! I CAN'T GO BACK!" The Earth grew smaller and smaller, and he let out one final scream of torment before his fate was revealed.

"Oh dear." Weiss mumbled, suddenly remembering that Kars is immortal.

He floated completely still, like a statue, covered in ice in a ball shape with his limbs twisted and bent, and face completely still. "Kars never returned to the Earth. He became half-mineral, half-animal and floated forever through space. And though he wished for death, he was unable to die…" The Ultimate Lifeform who had once longed for immortality floated in front of the sun, highlighting his empty of emotions face, before fading into the darkness of the unknown.

"Damn... That's kinda rough." Yang muttered. "Yeah, there is no coming back for him." Blake confirmed her suspicion. "So he is not dead yet he is not alive yet he is not undead too..." Ruby's head hurt thinking about it.

"So eventually, he stopped thinking." The narrator said as a finisher.

The scene cut to a new one, during an overcast day as the location and date flashed across the screen, sorrowful music playing. 'Outside New York City, April 1939.'

"Joseph is gone..." Ruby stated, bringing back the sad mood. The rest of the team remained silent, they all scooted closer towards the blonde.

A car was revealed driving into a cemetery, as a man began speaking. "Our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name." The car rounded a bend, and scattered around a grave were several familiar people. "Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth, as it is in heaven." The grave's owner was revealed, Joseph Joestar, with his dates of birth and death, marking him as only nineteen years old when he had passed.

"It's his funeral." Blake said. "Hey, well... Atleast he got to have a funeral, Jonathan had it rougher." Yang said bitterly, trying to be strong. "He was a rascal, he was sly and a cheater and very obnoxious. But true to his Joestar lineage, he had a golden heart." Weiss said, fitting for a funeral. "Weiss... Jonathan wasn't a rascal." Ruby sniffed.
"I was talking about Joseph, you dunce!" The heiress angrily replied.

Lisa Lisa stood next to instructor Messina, while Speedwagon stood next to and held an umbrella over Erina as Smokey was beside them.

"He died without even knowing Lisa Lisa was his mother." Blake said. "P-Probably better off... Considering what happened." Yang stuttered, trying to joke around. "You sure are taking this quite well, Yang." Ruby complimented. "I'M NOT! I'M ABOUT TO BREAKDOWN, BREAKDOWN ANY SECOND!" her sister replied.

The car stopped in the background, and two brown boots stepped out.

As most of the people attending the funeral left, leaving behind the main cast minus Stroheim who was noticeably absent, as well as Suzi Q. Smokey walked forward and said his farewells. "Goodbye, JoJo. Now that I think of it, we only met six months ago."

"Yeah. He saved you." The faunus wiped a tear from her eye. "Kinda odd that Stroheim wasn't there..." the heiress noted.

The camera cut back to the approaching boots, the tean figured that it was likely Stroheim having come to say his goodbyes as well. Smokey continued, tears threatening to run down his face. "But I'll always remember you. Always…"

That speech moved Blake's heart, she sympathizes with Smokey alot. "Stroheim's gonna drop by to scream passionately. It'll cheer us up, atleast." Yang couldn't be anymore wrong, but she'll definitely cheer up at what's about to happen.

Speedwagon closed his eyes and Erina dabbed at her face with a handkerchief, before the older man bent down.

"Come, Erina, you mustn't catch a cold. Let's go home." The bachelor said with concern.

"Even Speedwagon can't take it anymore..!" Ruby's lips quivered.

As the camera cut around to show Erina's face, parts of the approaching man were in view… and looked remarkably human and not cybernetic, especially the abs. Too human to be Stroheim.

"Wait. That's not Stroheim." Blake said as the team focused at the screen once more. The tanned skin on the stranger's forearms were familiar...

"Just a bit longer." The man stopped walking and began creeping forward, careful not to make any noise, before slipping both hands over her eyes.

A very familiar snicker was heard. "Ehehehe… Guess who?"

RWBY's eyes widened once more.

R: T-T-That voice?!
W: It's...
B: You're... You're..!

Yang stood up, full of hope as her beautiful lavander eyes remained glued to the screen.

Lisa Lisa, who had still been watching Joseph's grave, looked up as she gasped. Speedwagon and Smokey turned with wide eyes and gaping mouths, as the back of the mystery man's head was revealed, his hair a familiar shape and shade of brown. "Yo, everyone! I finally got to New York and nobody was there to greet me! What the hell?! So, I heard you were all at a funeral, and decided to crash! Heyyyyy, Coach Lisa Lisa! Are you all healed up? OH Messina, you're here too!?"

Yang laughed to herself with joy as she realized that her man was alive. "JOSEPH JOESTAAAAAAR!" Ruby screamed. "IS IT REALLY JOSEPH?! IT IS!" Weiss exclaimed. "HE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IT WAS HIS OWN FUNERAL?!" Blake asked, it was too absurd.

Part of the man's face was revealed as he clenched his hand, mechanical whirring coming from it as everyone looked at him in shock.

"AHHH! LOOK AT THAT HANDSOME FACE!" Yang cheered with a wide grin that seemed to be unbreakable on her face. "Nevermind the face, look at the hand!" Blake pointed out. "I DON'T CARE ABOUT HIS HAND, I WANT HIS FACE!" Yang replied.

"I asked Stroheim if he can fix up my hand with some gadgets... But, well, it looks like war with the Germans. Would be cool to have like a small pistol here or something, yeah?" Joseph asked.

"He can be a huntsman!" Ruby cheered.

Two men approached him. "Hey now, what are you thinking?!"
"This is a funeral, you idiot!"
"Who's an idiot?! Who you calling a fucking idiot?!" Joseph was dragged away by two men and began pointing at one of them, before grabbing their collar. "Hey you cunt! Did you just call me an idiot?!"

The team started laughing as trouble once again found its way towards Joseph Joestar.

"Just calm down. Let's go have a talk!" One of the men said but Joseph was having none of it. He just sent a god to space and this twat just called him an idiot. The nerve.

"Oh man, it really is him!" Yang wiped a tear off her eye. "It's good to have him back." Weiss smiled.

"It's…" Messina drifted off.
"No way…" Smokey muttered.
Speedwagon didn't say anything, and neither did Lisa Lisa.

"Why is it taking them so long to react?!" Ruby asked out in frustration.

"Hey! Don't start any trouble!" One of the men said. The larger man suddenly bopped them away, bringing his hand up to continue shielding his face, before pointing with a smirk as he revealed himself to be the one and only Joseph Joestar. "YOU AIN'T GETTING AWAY WITH CALLING ME AN IDIOT, YOU IDIOTS!"

"AHAHA! Good ol' Joseph." Blake can't resist laughing. This was a sweet ending compared to Phantom Blood.

Messina, Lisa Lisa, Erina,, and Speedwagon all cried out at once as the realization hit them all at once and knocked them out of their shock. "JOJO!"

"Finally!" Ruby screamed. "It took them some time, didn't it?" Weiss rolled her eyes with a smirk.

Smokey himself screamed the longest, "WAAAAAAAAHHHH! JOJO'S ALIVE!"

"Eh? Alive?" Joseph turned with a confused glance. "Smokey, what are y- H-Hang on now! what's with all the surprise? It's like you guys just saw a damn ghost or something-" he then saw his own grave, and after a moment to process it, screeched in shock as casual guitar music began playing.

"He didn't even know he died?!" Weiss asked. "Amnesia!" Blake blurted out with a smile.

"BWAAAAH! WHAT THE FUCK?!" They laughed at Joseph's reaction.

"Why's my name on a headstone?! D-Don't tell me this is…"

"Well, Weiss... It's time for me to ask for your blessing to marry your grandson." Yang combed her hair with her hand, but the cowlick on top of her head remained upright, it adds to her charm I guess.

"JoJo!" Suzi Q came sauntering up from behind Joseph, holding an umbrella and smiling. "You're still recovering, so you shouldn't stand out in the rain!" All five spectators watched dumbfounded as Suzi Q handed Joseph the umbrella before the camera focused on a ring on her finger that glinted in the light.

"Oh for fuck's sake, what does she want?!" Yang said out of jealousy. The ring alerted RWB so they remained tense and ready to restrain the overdramatic blonde.

Messina pointed out "I-It's Suzi Q. What's that ring on her finger?"
Joseph wrapped his arm around Suzi in shock as he pointed at her, "Y-You don't know about my wife, either?!"

"Your wife?!"

Ruby, Weiss and Blake slowly turned to face Yang.

"AAAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" She screamed quite loudly, disorienting her team. "C-Calm down, Yang!" Ruby stuttered. Blake still has her hands on her ears as Weiss looked at the brawler nervously.

"Your wife? Oh my!" Suzi blushed as she held her face. "Being introduced as your wife… Kyaaaa! It makes me blush! Right?"

They can hear Yang's hands close tightly as her hair covered her eyes. Ruby laughed nervously as yellow aura covered Yang.

"DON'T 'RIGHT' ME!" He backed away, pointing. "Back when the volcano erupted…"
Screenshots showed the rock Joseph had been on falling into the sea, as he was picked up by a boat and then nursed back to health while being teased by Suzi Q.

"So that's how he survived..." Weiss mumbled. Ruby snickered at Suzi trolling the injured bedridden Joseph. They got distracted for alittle.

"...The rock I was on shielded me and fell into the sea. A fishing boat picked me up. Then you nursed me back to health in Venice for two weeks." Joseph explained quite conviniently.

"Heh. That's great. That means he didn't suffer from amnesia." Blake sighed. "... NOTHING is great about THAT." Yang growled, Ruby paused the show before refocusing on Yang.

Remember the time when they hugged Weiss as they watched Jonathan got married to comfort the poor heiress?

The team also hugged Yang but for a completely different reason.

"ARRGHHH!" Yang exploded, blasting the team away causing them to yelp.

5 stages of grief.

Denial.

"That's not canon, that is not canon! S-S-Suzi got those ugly scars! I'm pretty! Ruby, I'm pretty, right?!" Yang asked her sister, who struggled to get up. "The prettiest." Ruby groaned. "That's not canon, that did not happen. I refuse to accept it." Yang crossed her arms and huffed.

Anger.

"GRAAAAAAAAAAAAGGHHH! WHY SUZI?! I HAVE BEEN HERE PINING FOR YOU SINCE THE BEGINNING! YOU FUCKING, CHEATING, HANDSOME... ASSHOLE!" Yang asked out in frustration, slamming her hand at the soft cushion of the couch. "Probably because you aren't canonically a part of the story." Blake reasoned out. "NOOOOOOO!"

Bargaining.

"Weiss, my bust is bigger than Suzi, right? Why can't he choose me instead?" Yang asked. "Please choose me, Joseph! Pleeeeaaase!"

Depression.

Yang sobbed as the team hugged her and patted her. "Why is... Life... So unfair!?" Yang asked. "Take it easy, he is just a... Fictional character." Blake hesitated to continue. "Yeah, get your head together, Yang. You're losing your mind." Weiss told her softly. "You won't always get what you want, but probably because you deserve someone better." Ruby comforted her. "No one's better than him though..." Yang pouts as Blake handed her a tissue to wipe her tears away.

Acceptance.

"I guess he looks happy with her. I truly understand your pain now, Weiss." Yang sadly chuckled. Weiss smiled at her. "I can't believe a character from a series just broke my heart. I'm so stupid." Yang giggled. "Yeah, you are." Blake smirked. "I love you guys..." the blonde said, hugging them all one more time. "We love you too, Yang." Ruby squeaked.

Yang sighed and lets them go. "I accept whatever happens. As long as my JoJo is happy. Who needs men anyway?! I'm just gonna swing for girls from now on, right, Blake?!" The blonde winked at the faunus. Blake looked at her with shock "A-Are you implying something?"

"Are you for real, Yang?" Ruby snickered. "Yeah! From now on, I don't need men anymore!" The blonde declared. "But he is still the best JoJo for me." She whispered.

All of this happened in the span of 7 minutes.

Ruby juggled the remote before clicking play.

"But they haven't heard! You sent a telegram, right?!" Joseph screamed.
Suzi hesitated, before holding her face in her hand. "Ahhh... Ahhhh... T-Telegram?"

"Ughh, she is so stupid! She is better off with Caesar! Not that I care! Hmph." Yang huffed. "Something tells me she's smarter than she lets on." Blake mumbled.

"Yeah! You said you would!" Joseph accussed. Suzi blinked but said nothing, sweating slightly.

"Pffft, don't tell me she is trolling with him again?" Ruby blurted out.

Joseph's eyes became shadowed as his mechanical hand began clicking dangerously, and Suzi giggled nervously. "Let's not get all clicky now!" She turned and began running, shouting her apologies. "I'M SORRY! I TOTALLY FORGOT!"

"YEARGH! OH NO! UNBELIEVABLE! WHAT HELL IS SHE THINKING?! GET BACK HERE, YOU!" He chased after Suzi, while behind him Smokey fell to the ground crying.
"WAHAAAAAUGGH! JOJO IS ALIIIIVE!"

"Even Smokey is crying." Blake joked. "Suzi is using the Joestar Secret Technique. They really are a match." Weiss said as Yang's eyes twitched. "I really wonder where is Stroheim right now..." Ruby pondered with concern.

Speedwagon simply smiled and held Erina's shoulder, for once he is not the one screaming his ass off. While back at the car, Suzi hid from Joseph on the opposite side while the Josetar began climbing the car to leap over it.
"I SAID I'M SORRY!"
"Sorry doesn't cut it!"

"Aww, they're sweet." Ruby whispered. Yang's eyes twitched once more.

Lisa Lisa watched with a smile, removing her hat as she teared up. "JoJo…"

The narrator swiftly took over. "Later, Lisa Lisa, Elizabeth Joestar, told JoJo she was his mother." The scene shifted to show Lisa Lisa, Joseph, and Suzi riding a boat into America and observing the Statue of Liberty. While Suzi and Lisa Lisa looked happy, Joseph had the face that said he had just realized he had spied on his mother nude.

"Pffft! LOOK AT JOSEPH'S FACE!" Ruby cackled. Yang perked up with a grin "Pause it, pause it!"

PAUSED.

The team laughed at Joseph's demented expression. "It- it looked like his brain had a short circuit!" Blake corpsed. "The realization he must have had, that's just priceless!" Weiss wheezed. "AHHHHH! HAHAHAHA! MY STOMACH!" Ruby continued laughing. "AWWW MAN MY JAW HURTS LAHAHAHAHAUGHING!" Yang laughed really hard.

"They moved to America. In 1948, she married a Hollywood screenwriter."
Erina appeared next, holding her handkerchief. "Erina Joestar continued her work as a teacher. In 1950, at age 81, she died peacefully, surrounded by those who loved her."

"Aww... She was a lady ahead of her times." Blake mentioned. "Rest in peace, queen." Ruby said. "Look at the pictures! There's her picture with Jonathan on their wedding!" Yang pointed out. "Well, she's with him now." Weiss sniffled. They also noticed Joseph's family picture and Lisa Lisa and George standing together on a frame.

Erina lay in a bed as the group surrounded and watched over her, Joseph standing next to Suzi and holding a little blond girl's head to comfort her, an older Smokey sat nearby, and Speedwagon stood at the foot of the bed while Lisa Lisa kneeled beside Erina, praying.

Speedwagon smiled and chuckled.

"SPEEDWAGON." RWBY said in unison.

The narrator continuing with his story next. "Robert E. O. Speedwagon continued with his various enterprises and helped to further science and medicine. In 1952, he died of a heart attack, at age 89. He remained single." Speedwagon walked off towards a plane, smiling happily as he went.

"Awww, he died alone!" Ruby said with sadness. "I think he is in to Jonathan to be honest." Weiss muttered. "What, really?" Blake asked with fascination. "I think so. He left everything just to follow him and his family after getting a boot to the chin." The heiress shrugged. "Poor Speedy. He withdrew coolly from the world. RIP." Yang sadly adds.

Messina helped Smokey to his feet as he continued to cry. "Smokey Brown worked his way through college, majoring in political science and became the first black mayor in Georgia, his home state." Smokey stood on a stage, all grown up, speaking confidently towards a listening crowd.

"HAHAHA, HE GOT BUFFED!" Ruby pointed out. "As per JoJo tradition, every guy must have muscles." Yang snickered.

Finally, Stroheim appeared. "Rudol von Stroheim never saw Joseph again."

The team's face fell. That sentence was enough to fill their heart with sorrow.

"In 1943, he died a proud German soldier, fighting in Stalingrad." He turned and smirked at the camera, giving a two-fingered salute. He turned and walked into the snow of a ruined town, damage clearly seen on some buildings.

The team sighed, Ruby cried a little. Weiss sniffled. Blake whispered "Rest in Peace." While Yang did the fucking Nazi salute in honor of the man.

Stroheim loved his country more than he hated others. He focused his passion in his patriotism than racism. He values courage above all.

"WE ARE THE BEST!" His back exploded as five weapons exploded out of it ready for combat, including a goddamn rocket launcher. He died the way he lived, like a badass.

"PFWAHAHAHAHA!" The team bursted out laughing. "Ahhh! Man, this episode sure is a rollercoaster of emotions, huh?" Yang wiped a tear from her eye. "Yeah, specially for you." Ruby said calming down. "Right on point, sis." Yang nods.

Back in the past, Joseph and Suzi walked back to the group, smiling happily. Joseph pulled Suzi closer towards him and it broke Yang's heart to hundreds of tiny pieces once again.

"AHHH! WHO AM I KIDDING?! I'M NOT HOMOSEXUAL, I'M JOJOSEXUAL!" she wailed comically as the team rolled their eyes and patted her back.

"Time flowed onward… to a new generation. And JoJo…" Words appeared atop the screen: 'JFK International Airport, New York 1987.'

"Yang, shut up! We're getting a preview!" Blake scolds, Yang perked up in obedience and watched.

A suitcase was rolled into an old man's leg, and the man fell to his knees as he grunted in pain. The man who had been rolling it looked down at him in concern but his tone sounds bored. "Oh, I bumped into you. Are you okay? Oh dear, you should watch where you're going."

"What?! That old man is twice your size! YOU watch where you're going!" Ruby said with a smile as Weiss lets out a giggle.

The old man, still on the floor, responded, "Uou're right. I'm fine. People make mistakes, it's part of growing up, and we never stop growing..."

"That's pretty deep." Blake whistled.

The man looked up as the man moved to grab his suitcase. "Wait a minute. Are you Japanese?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Then I take that back!" The man suddenly got up as if nothing happened and grabbed the Japanese man by the head, kicking his knee.

"GIYAAAAAAAAAAA!"

As the man screeched and held his knee, the old man harrumphed and adjusted his coat.

Ruby corpsed. "I think that's Joseph." Blake rolled her eyes with a smile. "That is definitely Joseph." Weiss sighed with a smirk "No one is that obnoxious."

"Woah papa. He aged well! Look at how built he is!" Yang complimented with a blush.

The man grabbed his suitcase as an announcer spoke over the intercoms that a flight to Tokyo was now boarding, and the man sighed. "My only daughter has been married to a Japanese man for over 20 years now... Why did she have to get married on the other side of the world?! My own grandson doesn't even know my face!"

"He hasn't changed a bit!" Ruby laughed at Joseph's dramatic antics.

He lifted his hand to the heavens, shouting resolutely as other people in the airport stared at him with awe. "YURUSAN. I'll never forgive the Japanese!" He walked away, leaving the Japanese man on the floor still holding his knee.

"Never change, Joseph. Never change." Blake giggled. "Well, I'm guessing the grandson is the new JoJo." Weiss shrugged.

As he went, he pulled out a walkman, inserting a tape. "But… I do like my walkman." He grinned the signature Joseph Joestar grin, placed his earphones in, and pressed play, and as Bloody Stream played one last time, the credits to JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Battle Tendency began to roll.

The team applauded as the Coda's song began to play.

Shijima nooooooo, soko karaaaaa, mezameru sono hashiratachi... toki wo koeeee.
Shinku nooooo, chishio gaaaaa, tachiagaru yuuki wo, hikiawaseru

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Uketsugu ai wo... sadame to yobu nara...
Hohoemu me de, tsugi no te wo...

[Chorus]
Yami wo azamuite, setsuna wo kawashite!
Yaiba surinuke yatsura no suki wo tsuke!
Tsuranuita, omoi ga! mirai wo hirakuuu!
Like a bloody storm,! atsuku like a bloody stone!
Ketsumyaku ni kizamareta innen ni...
Ukiagaru kienai hokori no kizunaaaaahhh! nigirishimeteee!

"That was a smooth transition." Weiss compliments. "That walkman thingy looks like a primitive scroll." Ruby stated.

As the last cords faded out, a plane began taking off, likely the one to Tokyo that Joseph was riding, and words faded onto the screen. 'Part 2: Battle Tendency - Fin'

RWBY cheered at the message. "We finally finished it!" Ruby chirped with enthusiasm. "It was bittersweet, but it ended on good terms compared to the sad one we got with Part 1." Weiss commented. "I'm excited to see what they have to offer on the other part. I think they showed the limits of what hamon can do, and the ultimate undead threat was already banished." Blake said as she folded her arms. "Is there a possibility that Kars... Nah, nevermind. He gone." Yang snapped her fingers.

The screen faded to black but swiftly came back with a new location, more words showing the time and location.

"Oh, look what we have here." Yang grinned.

Four years earlier than the scene before the credits: 'Atlantic Ocean, near the Canary Islands, 1983.' A boat was seen idling in the water, a crane dipping into the ocean as a man cheered. "Y-Yahoo! We finally got it!"

The team were silent as to be cautious not to miss anything.

"R-Relax! Just bring it up!" The other replied.

"It's a hundred-year-old treasure chest!" The other other guy exclaimed.

"L-Let's pop it open!" The other other other man said. The chest spilled water from its sides as it was lifted out of the vast ocean, and barnacles were seen growing from the sides. However, as the camera panned up, three letters were the main focus before the camera cut to black.

DIO.

RWBY's eyes widened. They glanced at eachother. Ruby muttered with denial, anger and dread "No way..."

The katakana for menacing appeared, as the camera view showed a hallway filled with prison cells, and finally focused upon a menacing man sitting on a bench, intimidating Blake specifically. Though not much could be seen of him, his golden chain, hat, and piercing gaze were clearly visible and recognizable, like a tiger watching his prey.

To be continued!
