Fortunate Son
"This! This is?!" I shouted at surprise as I saw what was in my hand.
What landed in my hand was an arrow head, but not just any arrowhead but it was none other than a Stand Arrowhead!
"Wow, you somehow randomly landed on the arrowheads from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, maybe this is saying something, or foreshadowing for later on." Shinigami says to me as she sees what I got as well.
"Well no sitting around I guess." I say before tightening my hand around it as it dug in into my skin and made me bleed.
Soon enough I felt something fundamentally change in my very being as I suddenly felt something come out from behind me before manifesting and appearing for me.
I then looked at my stats to find the name of my stand, "Fortunate Son huh, well I guess I really am Fortunate to get you."

Fortunate Son- an Automatic/Sentient Stand, the powers of Fortunate Son are as follows.
1. So long as the user has the stand active it will passively bring good fortune to the user, though the user can let the Stand roam on its own and bring good fortune to those who need it the most.
2. Unlike D4C Love Train that redirected Misfortune/Calamity to other points in time to protect the user, Fortunate son redirects misfortune into the surroundings but only into non sentient objects as it would be giving Misfortune/Calamity to another being which is the antithesis to its existence.
3. Since Fortunate Son is a focal point of Fortune, if brought within range of a focal point of Misfortune or Calamity both opposing forces would cancel each other out and would leave everything to fate itself to decide as a result, but even in this scenario the user and those within a 30 meter radius of Fortunate Son are highly unlikely to be hit with fatal amounts of Misfortune/Calamity but are still liable to get injured, either minorly or severely but never recieving lethal damage.
Description- The Stand itself is a normal humanoid stand that appears to be dressed in a black three piece suit with white gloves and black shoes with black shades over its eyes with its head being an oval shaped sphere with two small antennas sticking out of the have spheres on either side of the head though disguised as a human for anyone to see it looks like a rather well off, bald, businessman, the stand is always seen walking around with a briefcase that has nothing inside of taken from it by force, but should it bestow upon someone who deserves it, it will open and give the person in question what they most need at the moment.
As the stand is the embodiment of Fortune itself, it is a neutral entity and will aid whoever it wishes, whether they be good or bad to the world as a whole, though it can be influenced by the user and those deemed by the user as enemies will have their fortune reduced to the bare minimum levels as a result stating that 'You must have used up all your good fortune, now all that is left is calamity and misfortune for you.'
Fortunate Son being a universal law cannot be killed in anyway as so long as misfortune and calamity exist, fortune and good luck will always exist.

Now looking at this it's both extremely strong and extremely weak, with it giving me control over my own fortune/good luck it was very unlikely for bad things to happen to me.
But at the same time it has no fighting power at all leaving me to have to do the fighting instead but that's fine as I'm a good fighter on my own.
But the major flaw is that I can't use Fortunate Son to attack other stands, but-
I then let Fortunate Sons hands superimpose over my own and now I could technically fight other stands as a result, though I'm not sure if Spiral Energy itself can attack stands, but if it can my attacks will really hurt other stands and their users in the future.
But then I let Fortunate Son Separate from me before he nodded at me and phased through the door and disappeared.
"Go and Bring Fortune to those who need it." I say with a smile before turning back and putting the arrow in my inventory as I waited for Mikan.
Briar didn't do anything as she couldn't see or sense my stand, but soon enough Mikan returned.
"Hifumi, h-how do I look?" She said nervously as she wore her pink nurses outfit.
I just smile, "You look perfect in whatever you wear, but it suits you well."
"T-thank you…. Hifumi…. Y-you okay if I stay the night?" She said with a bashful look on her face.
"…. Sure."

At the same time Fortunate Son was walking the streets of the city, his only mission was to give fortune to those in need of it.
A beggar on the streets would suddenly recieve a wad of cash as he passed them by, same could be said for the solo street performers trying to make it big with their dreams would get some cash to set them on their journey.
But these were just small pockets of Fortune that people would recieve from him, it was nothing major or life changing but nevertheless it was bringing good fortune to those who need it.
Though as he walked throughout the city, he began to sense a location with overwhelming misfortune in one area, an imbalance to say the least as he made his way their.
And soon enough he reached his destination as he looked up upon the place before him, a large General Hospital, he then readjusted his sunglasses before making his way inside where no one payed attention to him as unless he wanted to, no one could see or touch him.
As he walked the halls he could see the sick and the dying laying in their beds where their fortune itself was either slowly rising signaling they will get better, or falling as it will get worse.
Those with cancers or heavy hitting diseases that are hard to cure soon enough stated to have their fortune improve as their diseases began to regress and soon enough would clear up on their own.
But he actually stopped and turned to one room where he saw a girl laying on a hospital bed alone, no flowers asking her to get better and no family to see her.
He even saw that sheet on her rooms door saying who last visited, and it showed nobody had visited her in months with her mother being the last person to see her.
No friends who care about her and a family who cares little to none about her, "Ahhh…. Such Misfortune…. It as if a Calamity has come and ruined your very life…." He says out loud to himself before he turns and looks at her and sees her looking at him but she can barely move.
"A Cerebral Stroke so severe that most of your body was paralyzed by the doctors could do anything…. Even though your alive you can barely function and are living a life worse than death itself…." He says as he pulls a chair and sits next to her as she moves her eyes to look at him.
"Now would you like to get your body back so you can move once more? Because I can help you if you so wish." He said as he placed his briefcase on the nightstand next to her.
But while she could barely move, her eyes squinted signaling that she didn't believe him.
Don't believe me? Well then ask yourself this, what do I gain in doing this? Killing you? There's no need to go about doing this in such a round about way then." He says before opening up the briefcase and pulling out a syringe filled with a blue like substance.
"This here will restore your brain back to its orginal state of being, it's slow and will take a month to fully get every part of your brain back to functioning order, but it will do so, but in the end it's up to you if you want this, blink once for yes and twice for no." He said as he held it while looking at her.
..... *Blink*...…
"I see, well Fortune smiles upon the brave who venture into the unknown after all." He says with a smile before inserting it into her arm and giving her the full dose of the serum before putting the empty one away as he closed his briefcase and stood up.
"You may think this is a dream but over the course of the month you will feel your limbs be able to move once more and realize this is very real." He says before standing up as he begins to leave before stopping and turning to her.
"Oh and Iwasawa-san, if you want to give your thanks, when you finally leave this place look for the Store 'All World Goods' if you really want to give your thanks to me and the rest who went to save your future, and if you want your future to go even farther they are the ones who can help you in all your endeavors…." He says as he nods towards her before turning around and walking away disappearing without a trace.
"..... Th..... ank.... Y... ou..." she could barely say at all as tears streamed down her eyes as her future isn't ruined after all.
While Fortunate Son just had a soft smile on his face as he continued to do what he did best.
Bring fortune to those who need it most of all.
