Sunset was shopping at a nearby store, her youngest son in the shopping cart with her. She saw a particular item she wanted on a high shelf and went to grab for it, but it was kind of high. "Need some help?," came the voice of a young blonde man. She raised an eyebrow when she saw a golden humanoid appear from within him. It was Giorno Giovanna, and his Stand Gold Experience. "No thanks," Sunset said, "I got it." Tighten Up appeared, grabbing the item.

"Ah, so you're a Stand user too," Giorno said, "I was told we tend to be drawn to each other by the invisible hand of fate. My name's Giorno Giovanna." "Yeah I heard about you from a family friend," Sunset replied, "I'm Asahi Ito. My friends and family call me Sunset Shimmer." They then saw another shopping mother use her child as a cover to stuff some panties down her blouse. "Vergognoso," Giorno muttered in Italian, "If we were back in my home of Naples, my gang would see to it this woman would be taught the error of her ways."

"Nothing stopping us from delivering karma to her here," Sunset pointed out. Giorno smirked, and the two followed the woman as she exited. A perfect chance appeared when her infant son reached for a shiny crucifix on a priest's low sitting hat. Gold Experience and Tighten Up each took an arm and gently pulled, causing the woman to spill both her legitimate groceries and the items she was trying to shoplift. As the woman gasped, the priest suddenly moved at unthinkable speeds, helping the woman get all her things.

Giorno narrowed his eyes as the woman left. "Enrico Pucci. You're looking a little ragged. Still pursuing my father's legacy?" "Giorno...," Pucci replied, "What a coincidence running into you. Deride me now, but I am on my way to achieving Heaven." "Like I said back in Naples," Giorno said with a scoff, "Heaven is a place on Earth. It's not just a song by Belinda Carlisle, but a fact of our modern life." "And what was up with that strange power earlier?," Sunset asked, "That's clearly some Stand power you're using, but last I heard it wasn't one of Whitesnake's powers."

Pucci closed his eyes. "I see... So you're connected to the Kujos somehow. Well, you're right that this isn't part of Whitesnake. Whitesnake is no longer my Stand, but something more. Something so powerful I cannot yet control it. Now, if you'll excuse me, I must reach a certain place. Hopefully this automatic power will let me do so before it is too late." And with that, he walked off. Giorno sighed. "And here I was only stopping by to meet up with family."

"Alright then," Ryusei said, "Now we have everything in place." They had convinced Miu Miu to use her powers on the other guards, making it easy to get past them. "So, now we leave?," Anasui asked. "Not yet," Ryusei said, "There's one more person to pick up." "Hey!," Gwess said as she looked through the cell door to the female ward, "What's going on? Why are there so many guards here?" Jolyne and Rainbow looked at each other. "Can we make it two?," Jolyne asked. Ryusei thought about it. "Eh, why not?"

He opened up the bars. Gwess looked surprised. "Wait... Are we breaking out? And... I get to come too...?" "Yeah, sure," Jolyne said, "You never really got to enjoy the last taste of freedom so-- Oof!" She got cut of when Gwess glomped her, calling out, "Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you!" "Hey!," came a familiar voice from the infirmary, "You letting me in on this shindig?" Jolyne smiled when she recognized the voice. "Ermes!"

Ryusei opened the sickroom door to let Ermes out. "Man, one minute I'm passing out after finally putting my sister's spirit to rest, the next thing I know there's a Level 4 Security alert in the prison and you guys are planning a breakout. What's been going on for the last four days?" "You know how long it's been?," Atroe asked. "I read the medical file," Ermes explained. Jolyne chuckled. "It's a long story, Ermes." "We have some time to catch you up," Wes said, "We have six days until the next New Moon."

Emporio looked apprehensive. "You okay?," Ryusei asked. "It'll be my first time outside the prison," Emporio said, "I've lived here my whole life. I don't even know where to go now." "I've thought of that," Ryusei said, "I arranged to have you live with me and my wife. We already have two kids, one more who's already grown enough to take care of himself won't be an issue. Personally I think you've gone long enough without a parent." Emporio was so overcome that he teared up and actually hugged Ryusei.

"I'm home," Jotaro said as he returned to the large Joestar mansion. The mansion had been rebuilt twice since it was burned to the ground back in 1888, first by Jonathan and Twilight shortly after defeating DIO for the first time, and again when Joseph decided to have it transported brick by brick to America. "Hello sweetie," Fluttershy said, "There's been some odd things happening in the news." Jotaro raised an eyebrow. For a Stand user to call something odd was significant. "What's been happening?"

"Strange instances of egg yolks turning into chicks," Fluttershy replied, "And babies seemingly aging almost instantly. These events disappear as quickly as they are witnessed, but it's a strange phenomenon." Jotaro rubbed his chin. "This goes way beyond Stand power. Or at least, it's a power well beyond what humans could normally control. It's like an acceleration of time that corrects itself after a few seconds." Fluttershy nodded. "Oh, and Ryusei helped our daughter break out of prison."

Jotaro had gotten some water as Fluttershy said this, only to spit-take when he heard it. "Huh?" "It seems they found out what Pucci is after," Fluttershy explained, "He's left the prison for Cape Canaveral." Jotaro sighed. "Gimme a break... So that's why. They must have found something about Pucci's plans." He headed for the communication room. "We'll need all hands for this." Fluttershy sighed. "Do we at least have time to entertain our family visiting from Italy?" Jotaro smirked. "I think he may want in on this."

So yeah, Giorno shows up, Gwess is officially part of the Stone Ocean crew, and we get hints that Pucci's Heaven power might not be as strong as it was in canon. The race to Cape Canaveral has begun. Hope you stay tuned.
