Chapter 62
Summary
Santana, having been turned to stone, was taken by the Speedwagon Foundation to their headquarters in Washington D.C. There, his corpse was maintained using a new ultraviolet light technology and was kept under heavy surveillance. After careful experimentation, Speedwagon and the scientists discovered that Santana was not dead, and mearly preserved in a stone-like state. The scientists seem relieved, but Speedwagon releases the information he had obtained from Stroheim and a picture of the cave where Santana was discovered. On one of the walls, 4 masks could be seen, indicating that were were 3 more pillar men in Europe. Using the inscriptions on the wall, and a conversion of the Mexican calender, they discover that the other pillar men would be awakening on the current year.
Having flown to Rome, Joseph is seen enjoying an Italian dish, but not before being interrupted by a man serenading a women at another table. With a certain dislike for men like that, Joseph attempts to fuse some of the noodles from his pasta with the ripple and flings it towards the other guy. Suddenly, the man is able to catch the noodles with his own fork and pasta and flings Joseph's back at him. Joseph quickly holds his wine glass up, which the noodles pierce straight through. Joseph is confused, but after a speedwagon member walks in, he later discovers that the other suave fellow is none other than Caesar Anthonio Zeppeli, the one they travelled to Rome to meet.
