JORGE JOESTAR Chapter 5
Summary
George, Erina, Lisa Lisa, Straizo, and Penelope head to a secret room in the basement. George looks at his father's severed head, feeling as if Jonathan still looked alive. Despite being a baby at the time she was carried by Erina in the coffin, Lisa Lisa has memories of a fearsome man who was in the coffin with them. Erina has Straizo and Penelope go upstairs so she can tell the story of how she survived after the ship's explosion. Before Erina could begin, Lisa Lisa grows impatient and asks Erina if she saved Dio back then.
Lisa Lisa had gone to England researching about Dio Brando's life. She went to the remains of the Joestar mansion and talked to people in town, who told her about Jonathan, Erina, and Dio. To Lisa Lisa's surprise, Dio was the most popular person in town and half of the town's citizens still believed he was innocent. People believed that Dio never had a girlfriend despite being popular with the ladies because he loved Erina. Erina emotionally scolds Lisa Lisa, saying that a little sixteen year old girl like her should never attempt to speak about matters such as love as if she could understand. She quickly calms down, realizing Lisa Lisa couldn't understand since Erina hasn't told them anything yet.
Erina finally begins telling her story, at first describing Dio's vile personality. Dio tortured Jonathan after joining the Joestar family, going as far as forcing Erina away from Jonathan, stealing his friends away, and eventually killing his dog Danny. Suddenly, Dio's personality appeared to have changed and he treated Jonathan with a friendly smile as if they had no conflict with each other. However, Dio still kept a close watch on Erina, and prevented her from getting close. Soon, Dio became a vampire and killed Jonathan's father. Erina became a nurse, and Jonathan was brought to her care after the Joestar mansion burned down. Shortly after, Jonathan left again to continue his fight against Dio. Believing matters with Dio were settled at last, the two got married. Unfortunately, Dio survived and attacked the couple on their honeymoon trip, killing Jonathan. Listening to Jonathan's dying request, Erina entered Dio's coffin with the baby Lisa Lisa in her arms.
The coffin eventually fell into the water after all the explosions. Erina opened the lid of the box to check if there was anyone floating in the water that she could save, when she saw a hand attempt to grab her arm from under the box. As she attempted to close the lid, Erina saw Dio's terrifying face floating on the water. Dio had escaped from Jonathan's grip as the explosion hit and stolen his body. He then impaled Jonathan's feet on a stick of wood embedded on the side of the box, allowing him to travel together with the coffin. Dio managed to grab Lisa Lisa out of the coffin when Erina opened the lid and cradled the baby by his chest, using her as a hostage. Dio offered to spare Lisa Lisa if Erina offered her blood to him. Erina could not refuse as she promised Jonathan she would save the baby. Dio handed back Lisa Lisa and drank a lot of blood from Erina without restraint.
Erina could hear Dio struggling in pain that night, thrashing against the water and the coffin. As a nurse, Erina knew Jonathan's body would have been rejecting the foreign tissue of Dio's head. Before the sun rose, Dio knocked on the lid and asked to drink Erina's blood once more. In order to keep Erina's body healthy, Dio caught a fist full of fish. Using his Space Ripper Stingy Eyes, he then cooked the fish on a floating piece of ship debris near the coffin. Erina took some fish, chewed it, and then fed it to the baby Lisa Lisa. Noticing Erina wasn't eating any herself, Dio remarked that Erina should keep the baby within her womb healthy as well, which shocked Erina as she did not yet realize that she was pregnant.
