Metanoia

Chapter 28

It was dark, everything was cold, there was no comfort, and no one else with you. Not even your stand. You were cold. You felt stiff. And you couldn't feel your heartbeat, it would have been pounding but it wasn't.

You put two fingers on your wrist and looked down but you couldn't see anything because of the darkness. You waited for a moment, waiting to feel a pulse but nothing happened.

"Ocean Man."

You were tearing up and stumbled towards the light.

"Just come out."

You made your way to the light while choking up.

"Don't leave me alone."

The light was getting further away and you started running to it but you could never reach it. Your feet started to hurt and you stopped running. You went back to walking.

"You're beautiful Y/n. I-I'm sorry I never told you before."

You looked up and around which was pointless since you kept forgetting you couldn't see anything.

"Mista?"

"This is your fault! You said she wouldn't die! LOOK AT HER!"

"Abbacchio?"

You started to lightly jog in the direction you thought their voices were coming from.

"I'll take you home. I promise."

"Giorno?"

The voice came from a different direction and it was a continuous cycle. You were running in circles, just trying desperately to reach one of them.

"Y/n."

You heard a different voice and your heart leaped, well you assumed it did. It was Ocean Man. It was groggy and crackly

"Ocean Man!"

You started running in the direction of its voice. You spotted its glowing organs and the patches under its eyes and a wide grin spread on your face. You teared up and tears flew behind you as you ran. You couldn't feel the pain in your feet and you just focused on getting to Ocean Man.

You were getting and jumped, planning on hugging it but you fell through it.

What?

You landed on the ground and groaned on impact. You turned around slowly and looked at Ocean Man. It was still floating there and you stood up. This time you walked to it. And you just passed through it.

"Ocean... Man?"

You grin had dropped and so had your tears of joy. You looked at your stand and reached out for it.

"Please, don't-"

It vanished before your eyes and your eyes showed hurt. Your hand dropped to your side.

"-leave me."

Something grabbed your sides from behind and lifted you off the ground, you screamed loudly.

"AHHHHH LET GO! "

You twisted in its hands and it hugged you which made you stop. You could see a faint glowing coming from around you looked over your shoulder to see the grinning horrifying face of your stand. Your tears of joy building up again.
