Kakyoin looked up at Jotaro, bringing his face away from his hands. Tears were streaming down his cheeks and his teeth were clenched. He looked away and rubbed the tears away with his sleeve. “I-I’m fine… I was just… remembering some bad things…”
“Was it DIO?” He asked, “N'Doul, Telence?” He continued, running through the list of things that had happened in the last few months, “J. Geil?”
Jotaro wanted to help his friend, but Star Platinum probably wouldn’t help with that.
“Mostly N’Doul and DIO… I just woke up from a nightmare that scared me into a panic attack. That hand made from water tearing at m-my face and the feeling of DIO’s attack…” He hugged himself, shivering. “The terror I felt… I held back the weight of it all for a while because I didn’t want to worry myself. Because they’re gone… It’s over… Right?”
“I-In my nightmare, DIO came back to life… Could that be my mind playing tricks, or could he really be back?” He ran his fingers through his red hair. “I felt like I was being watched!”
“Kakyoin, I punched The World so hard, DIO exploded. Then I burned the body in sunlight. He’s dead. And N'Doul killed himself so you don’t need to worry about that. And I have the power of The World now. If DIO comes back, he’ll regret it.”
“Perhaps I’m being over-dramatic… But I wouldn’t put it past DIO to find a way to survive even that. I don’t want to be looking over my shoulder for the rest of my life, either.” He sighed. “I need to put the past behind me. DIO has to be dead. You exposed him to sunlight. He’s gone forever.” He felt like a fool for worrying Jotaro like this.
“You don’t need to look over your shoulder Kakyoin, that’s what I’m here for. We gotta watch each other’s backs. We have Stands, but that doesn’t make us invincible. We should still be careful of DIO’s leftover goons coming after us.”
