JoJo: AAH! This is horrible... Under normal circumstances I would've have been able to avoid that dagger, but...

JoJo: ...I was distracted by the fact that Dio had the "Stone Mask" that I was researching!

JoJo: Father... You were just getting better, and instead...

JoJo: ...You've sacrificed yourself in my place...!!

SFX: HE HE

Lord Joestar: It's so small... That I had to wear it... On my little finger...

Lord Joestar: Th... The ring... Of your... Dead mother...

SFX: TAP TAP

Speedwagon: Ugh... That dagger has struck...

Speedwagon: ...A vital organ...

Speedwagon: When Dio Brando put the mask on... I was suspicious, but...

Speedwagon: Shit! I was unable to prevent it!

SFX: RUMBLE

Inspector: It's... It's all my fault! Twenty years ago with his father... Aaah...!

Inspector: If I would've handled the situation with Dio Brando's father twenty years ago, none of this would've happened!

SFX: UGGGH

Speedwagon: Dio Brando's father?

Inspector: Yes, I'm responsible for this!

Inspector: It happened twenty years ago... When my police work left me with no time to sleep...

Inspector: ...When I arrived at Scotland Yard I summoned Lord Joestar...

Lord Joestar: Yes, this is my ring... But I never reported it stolen!

Inspector: We've arrested the thief as he tried to sell it!

Inspector: The ring is so expensive, made with platinum and precious stones, this must be the work of a famous jeweler, right? Well, that jeweler remembered you bought a pair of rings, and that he made them for you!

Inspector: Long ago, this and your dead wife's ring were made as a pair when you both got engaged, right?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inspector: It was a sad memory... Lord Joestar's eyes filled with tears as he remembered his wife...

Inspector: The important thing is the item that was so precious to you has been recovered...

Inspector: But why didn't you report it stolen?

Inspector: I was young and excited! Since I recovered a precious item as my first accomplishment... I wanted to show Lord Joestar who the thief was... I wanted him to praise me...

Inspector: The thief had stolen from a noble... And there were no doubts about his guilt... He would be condemned to exile...

SFX: TAP TAP

Inspector: Hey! Arise, Brando!

Lord Joestar: W-What!? Brando!?

Dario Brando: Leave me alone, you pain in the ass!

SFX: CLACK

Dario Brando: !?

Dario Brando: UGGH! Da... Damn... Uh...

Inspector: I found out later that Brando had saved the life of Lord Joestar...

Inspector: But... How horrible! That scoundrel Brando had taken advantage of the coach accident to rob him! The girl who was with him testified to it...

SFX: FWIP

Inspector: The ring was stolen right after the accident!

SFX: SHOOOCCCKKK

Inspector: But Lord Joestar knew this and yet he still adopted Dio!

Inspector: I still grieve over Lord Joestar's gesture from 20 years ago!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lord Joestar: I'm sorry, this man didn't tell you I gave the ring to him?

Inspector: Why are you saying this! That's a dirty lie!

Lord Joestar: No, that's not a lie... I gave the ring to him...

Inspector: Wh... What are you saying!!

Lord Joestar: This man is innocent, It was a gift from me... Release him!

Inspector: Why are you doing this!? Why are you giving such a precious item as your engagement ring to a stranger!? Why!? Why are you lying for this man, Lord Joestar!?

SFX: SWAP

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lord Joestar: This is yours, Mr. Brando!

Lord Joestar: I was born into poverty too, maybe I would have done the same... Sell it and buy something for your family... Then leave the road of evil and become an honest man!

Dario Brando: ?

Inspector: Lord Joestar, allow me to say something...

Inspector: This may sound rude, but I have to say it...

Inspector: You are too nice!!

Inspector: This villain will do it again! Within his heart he is laughing at you!

Inspector: I should have punished his father! If I had, Lord Joestar probably wouldn't have adopted Dio!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lord Joestar: JoJo...

JoJo: Father... Hold on, the doctor will arrive shortly and soon you'll be better!

Lord Joestar: JoJo... Don't hold a grudge to Dio... It was my fault... I was strict to you, because you were my true son...

Lord Joestar: ...And perhaps Dio thought it was unfair... That's probably why he acted this way... Bury...

SFX: SSSHHH SSSHHH

Lord Joestar: ...Dio in the Brando family grave...

Lord Joestar: You know, JoJo, it's not bad... To die in the arms of...

Lord Joestar: Your... Son...

SFX: FWIP

SFX: THUMP THUMP!

Police: LORD JOESTAR!

Inspector: Sigh... Oh... My goodness! What kindness!

Inspector: This should have set an example for Brando's son... But instead it led us to a tragic ending!

Inspector: It was my mistake! Once he dies, there's nothing more we can do!

SFX: SWAP

Speedwagon: That's not true!

Speedwagon: The father's soul...

SFX: FWIP

Speedwagon: ...Was fully inherited by his son, Jonathan Joestar! And this will be his strong will, his pride and his future!

Speedwagon: Usually I despise naive people who cry in distress! Even if they're noble minded people, but neither the father nor the son, repent for their actions!

SFX: RUMBLE

Speedwagon: !

Speedwagon: ...!!

Speedwagon: ...

Speedwagon: The corpse... The corpse of Dio Brando!!

TN: Psychopathic events occur when there's rings a guy who's a bastard and a bunch of fuckass policemen who can't do their jobs right. Because of their faults Dio was able to live as a vampire and murder off these fools. But hey, If we look in reality Lord Joestar's "Forgiveness" destroyed everyone's life in one fall swoop!

Here's a good song to listen to while you read this Chapter, ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GDPZpRmTg0 ) Wu-Tang Clan - "Protect Ya Neck" (When a vampire's on the loose Protect that Shit!)
