When she saw Joseph laying there against the wall bleeding, her heart sank. She felt tears swell up in her eyes, she tried to wipe them away as her vision blurred and she could see not only herself but her surroundings flicker with invisibility. "Dad..." She muttered.

Joseph was steadying his breathing. "Shizu...there is much I wanted to tell you still and I regret having to leave you so suddenly...but.." He gestured for her to come closer.

She followed his example and tried to steady her breathing to control her Stand powers. ''Even now...like this, he's still staying strong for me...to protect me. Just like a true hero should.'' She knelt beside him. "Dad I'm..."

Joseph put two bloody fingers to the back of her left shoulder and moved them over her skin, drawing something. "No time to explain, Shizu...but if they came after me they'll come after you. You will need this to fight them and you'll need help." He handed her his phone, nearly dropping it because it was too heavy in his weak hand, but she caught it before it fell on the ground. "Get Zeppeli, he...he can help. He's got the talent."

She noticed the dead body on the corner, burned and partially meltered with its head ripped off. "I don't understand."

"No time." Joseph repeated, his breathing was steady now. "You need to carry on Shizu, carry on my spirit." His hand grabbed her shoulder and her hand and he let out a powerful below. "Deep Pass Overdrive!"

She felt very strange and a pain on the back of her shoulder where her father had drawn something with his blood, it burned into her skin as the Hamon energy passed into her. When the last of the energy entered her body her father's hands went limp and his arms fell down at his sides. That's when she allowed herself to cry.

A gust of wind passed through the room as one of the windows suddenly swung open and she felt someone lift her head. It seemed strange to her but she thought she saw Joseph smiling down on her as the wind blew out into the sky.
