Story

There aren't many days I can feel so terrified that even my invisibility can't make me feel safe. Being beside the bed of my dying father was one of them. Even now, walking home from his funeral, it feels as though my entire world has been turned on its head.

I remember the last thing he said to me. At first he had made some crude joke about his old enemies finally getting what they wanted. He mentioned DIO, and the Pillar Men, those stories I had heard a hundred times. I chuckled and gave him a big smile. But in an unusual moment for my father, he then turned to me looking quite serious. "Shizuka..." he said with an alarming weakness. "You are living proof that all Joestars have a pure heart." He paused. "Don't... don't ever forget it."

It looked like he wanted to say more, but there was just no more energy left to speak. Yet, he somehow had the energy to reach to the camera we had left at his bedside. I knew just as well as him what purpose that camera served. With all of his might, he summoned his Stand Hermit Purple into it. It shattered to pieces, spitting out a small photo onto the floor. I cried before I could even see what it was.

Even thinking about it now is making it hard to keep my composure in public. First my mom was taken from me, now my dad? An eighteen year old without parents. It wouldn't be the first time I was left alone. Of course, I wasn't truly alone. My adoptive brother Josuke has been in town ever since things started to get bad-- and Jotaro came once we were sure he wasn't going to make it.

I had never really talked much to what I liked to call the extended Joestar family. Jotaro would occasionally visit on account of his daughter living in the US-- but a lot of his time was spent abroad studying his marine biology or whatever. Josuke I would see even less. He lived in Japan in a small town where I was once discovered by my father. I'm supposed to be meeting him today to discuss my father's business, a move pressured by board members despite the crushing grief we have been feeling.

"Hey sis!" Josuke said with the most cheerful tone he could manage. "Hi," I said as I came through the door and sat at the table. "How are you holding up?" I thought about how honest I should be. "Not great." Josuke silently nodded as he sat down next to her. "I'm sorry we have to do this today, of all days." He tapped his fingers on the table. "The Speedwagon Foundation pushed back hard on it, but the board members insisted." I returned his silent nod as a stared down at the table.

Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed a strange band of colors leaking through the window. I looked over to it, puzzled, and Josuke quickly took notice too. Without warning, the entire room became bathed in a bright yellow light, as the rainbow bands of colors began to wash over and warp the objects in the room. As if a glitch in a video game, objects in the room began to pop in and out as the walls re-textured themselves.

"Crazy Diamond!!" Josuke yelled as he stumbled to his feet. But almost as if on cue, the room went dead quiet. We were now in what appeared to be a living room, the cold corporate white walls replaced with a warm orange.
