1 Jonathan 1

Hello readers! I am writing this just to clear some things up before you start reading. One, I am aware of the various plot holes in this that will pop up, and as this is a story, they are not going to be explained immediately. I shouldn't even have to say this but there are a lot of people that will endlessly annoy me about it otherwise, so here you go. Second, I am writing this so that I can improve my own writing skills, so whenever you do see a mistake I made or ways to improve something, please do comment it as I wont know what I am doing wrong unless you tell me.

Third, and this is probably the most important, I will get the characters personalities wrong! I am still an armature writer, so I don't have much experience or skill in it. While I may be able to portray a character close to how they actually are, I will get it wrong. SO whenever you see this, please point it out and leave a suggestion on how to fix it, because I am writing about some of my favorite characters and I would hate to continuously get it wrong. I am writing multiple parts for each character and character set, so if I get it wrong the first time and you point out the mistakes, then I will probably get it right the next time.

Thanks for reading.

—————————————————————

Anyway, let's get back to Skyrim. We will start the journey off above Helgen where we can see a few carriages driving down a stone path, the more important one has four characters of interest, Ralof, our blonde Stormcloak that likes honor, Ulfric, the "rightful High King" who doesn't know what an inside voice is, Lokir, the dead guy from Rorikstead, and the last guy whose figure is blurry because he hasn't done character creation yet. However, Fuck them, they are boring and nobody cares about their story. Lets instead turn our attention to just outside the bear's cave at the end of the Helgen tunnels.

On a dirt path just outside of a cave, surrounded by trees and a magnificent view of a lake and an ancient crypt, space warped. It seemed as if air was condensing in on itself as it swirled around with a purple aura. Eventually all that was left behind were three black orbs hovering a few meters of the ground. They were subtly shaking, as if they were ready to explode at any moment, and the explosion would be violent.

The orbs then released a purple energy that fluctuated outward and the orb expanded within it slowly, eventually revealing two human figures. One tall, muscular male and one normalish guy with a top hat. Then the orbs exploded.

The explosion left behind two people. The first is a 162cm (5.3) man with blonde hair that reached down to his just below his neck. He had brown eyes, a normal-looking face structure, and a large scar across the right side of his face. He was wearing a black suit with a purple undershirt, and a top hat with a black-and-white pattern on it.

The second was a very tall 195cm (6.3) man. He had extremely defined and massive muscles on every surface of his body. The man had blue shorter hair (I am using the anime) and blue eyes, and a strong muscle structure for his face. He was wearing a short blue shirt with shoulder pads with gray jeans and a brown belt that had a golden belt buckle.

They both looked around, trying to remember where they were and how they got there, that was until they saw each other.

"JoJo!" "Speedwagon!"

They both stared at each other in confusion as they tried to figure out if they were seeing a ghost or not. Before Jonathan could say anymore, Speedwagon started shouting.

"What is this? Is this some sort of illusion? Who is the mastermind behind this? Show yourself!" Speedwagon yelled while frantically looking around.

"Speedwagon! Are you okay? Dio is still alive!" JoJo ran over and put his hands on Speedwagons shoulders, trying to warn his friend. "I tried to kill him! I did! But if I am still alive, that means he probably is to! Be on your guard!"

"On my guard? Dio alive? Jonathan, what are you talking about?" Speedwagon asked, confused for a second before his expression lit up. "Could it be that you think Dio survived that explosion? Are… are you really Jonathan?"

Speedwagon was uncertain on what to believe. He knew his old friend was dead, that was a fact that he knew was real, however, he also knew of the existence of pillarmen, vampires, and zombies, so JoJo coming back to life isn't too far-fetched, hence him being conflicted.

"Of course I'm Jonathan! But that doesn't matter right now, I need to find Erina and make sure she is safe!" JoJo then turned around and started hastily looking for a path or a sign of civilization. Unfortunately for him, the Skyrim he was in was actually realistically sized instead of being restricted by old gaming technology. This resulted in everything being further spread out, and the only man-made structures in sight were Bleakfalls Barrow and Shriekwind Bastion. Not even Pinewatch was in view. (I expect everyone to of at least heard of these, if not, why the hell are you here?)

"JoJo, I think we are in the afterlife." Speedwagon told him solemnly as he remembered what seemed to be his death. What he didn't understand was why it seemed as if Jonathan just now came to the other world, instead of the time he should have spent there.

"What are you talking about, Speedwagon? We have no time for this! Look there!" He pointed at Shriekwind Bastion, which was closest to them, "That looks like an old crypt of some sorts, and by the looks of it, it was built by the Norse people! That means we are probably in Norway or Finland! Although I don't know how we got here, it shouldn't be too hard to find our way back!"

(The world of JoJo differs from ours in a few "minor" ways, so lets just pretend that, in that world, Vikings built crypts similar enough to Skyrim nords so that Jonathan can mistake it for theirs. I am being lazy and would rather not spend hours thinking about how to make Jonathan think this is a building from the real world.)

"JoJo! I am sorry to say this but you are dead, Erina is dead, and I am dead, even Dio is dead! Please calm down so that we can consider the situation." Speedwagon, although happy to see his friend, was far more cautious of the mystery world they were in at the moment.

"What?" Jonathan stopped and looked back at him with an expression that hopes for that to be a joke.

"Jonathan, you managed to kill Dio, don't worry, but you also died on that boat! And that was sixty-four years ago! Erina died two years ago, and I am fairly certain that I have also died." Speedwagon recalls his last moments when he suffered a heart attack.

"I see. Are you absolutely certain we are gone?" Jonathan said with a serious expression.

"Yes, I remember all the years after your death, I especially remember your grandson. He inherited talent in Hamon unlike anything we could have dreamed of, and he did great things with it."

"I had a grandson? But I don't recall having a son, so how could I have a grandson?" JoJo asked, confused.

"Erina was pregnant when you guys were on that ship."

"This is amazing! I have my very own son! I can't believe it! Hahahahahahaha! Come Speedwagon, although this may be our afterlife, we must find her and celebrate! But, we were in the pacific ocean when the ship exploded. I sent her out on a coffin with no food or provisions. It is a miracle she survived, let alone a baby who had to feed off the nutrients of her body!" Jonathan was happy, but then he started thinking.

"Don't question it, and right now, I think our primary concern should be on finding out exactly where we are. If this were the afterlife, I thought it would be, then you should have been here, well aware of your death for a long time, but we are waking up here at the same time instead of that. Not only that, but I am in the body of my younger self as well. This isn't adding up." Speedwagon was a very intelligent and observant person, that is obvious by his ability to perfectly narrate everything that happens in front of him. So something this obvious wouldn't go unnoticed.

"I guess that your right, this seems weird. Alright, we can find Erina and celebrate later, for now we need to keep our guard up until we know for certain what's going on." Jonathan became serious once again. He would worry about his emotions after he knew he and Speedwagon weren't in danger.

"I say we head toward one of those crypts for now, they might lead to a city or someone else." Jonathan continued and pointed at Shriekwind Bastion again.

"I say you are right, we should be more cautious though, once we reach it, don't make any noise." Speedwagon said and started walking that direction, and Jonathan followed.

*RRROOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRRR*

Just as they were about to pass the tree line, they heard a powerful roaring sound echo through the valley. It shook everything to its very core. The sky seemed to change color as they saw small meteors falling in the distance. They looked around and saw animals running away as fast as they could, trolls, birds, wolves, and every other creature that could run left immediately.

"What in god's name was that?" Speedwagon stepped turned around and starred at the meteors falling in the distance.

"I have no idea, it seems as if the sky itself is falling." Jonathan was both curious and extremely cautious about the scene in front of him.

"I don't know what that is, but we should look at that first. If there is anyone there, or if it is some type of threat to the afterlife, then I couldn't live with myself if I didn't even bother with it." Jonathan seemed to want to investigate, however he also knew that whatever was there was powerful and he didn't want to put anyone else in danger.

"No Jonathan, I see your point, but we do not know what might be over there. If we really are dead now, what would happen to us if we died again? Although I don't fear dying again, we shouldn't throw our new chance at living away the second we get it back!" Speedwagon yelled and rushed forward.

"That's right! However, I would rather never live again then avoid a battle that I could win. It could be someone like Dio over there, it could even be Dio himself! Either case, it needs to be stopped before it can get any worse. Besides," Jonathan walked over to a boulder next to the cave exit. He then took a fighting stance and punched it with all his strength, but without Hamon. The boulder exploded and created a loud banging sound.

"Although I dislike sounding arrogant, I still know my strength. I will still be on my guard when we go there, however I can still have confidence in winning, even if I don't know the opponent." Jonathan spoke in a confident voice.

"That's right! How could I have forgotten about the strength sir Zeppeli gave you? You are right, whatever is over there is most likely not a match for your strength, even if they can summon those falling rocks!" Speedwagons face lightened up after that as he seemed to remember his younger days with Jonathan and Zeppeli in part one.

"Before anything else, we should observe the area and the enemy, then attack after we make a strategy. If we just rush in, it will surely kill us if the enemy is even a little competent. What did you think, Speedwagon?" Jonathan turned around to ask his friend, however he just found Speedwagon starring at the sky in astonishment and disbelief.

"J-JoJo! I might need to take back what I said before. Fighting that thing is out of your reach, Jonathan!" Speedwagon put on a serious face as he looked around to find a place where they wouldn't be seen.

"What are you talking about?" Jonathan asked and turned back around, then looked at the sky.

There he saw a massive black scaled dragon. It was the size of a mansion with a wingspan as larger than anything he had ever seen. It had pitch black scales, glowing red eyes, and an air around it that radiated power. (Alduin is bigger because I think it makes more sense for the child of Akatosh and the one who is in charge of ending the world, to be a lot bigger and more intimidating than his kin. Think of a black scaled, red eyed, Smaug as the new Alduin.)

Worst of all, the dragon was flying straight to them. "Is that a dragon? Like from the myths and legends? This isn't possible, its bigger then a castle! Speedwagon hide!" Jonathan wasn't scared of it, he was intimidated, but he did not fear the beast. He just needed to make sure that Speedwagon was safe.

"How is that even real? Is it because we are in the afterlife? JoJo, you need to hide too! Im sorry to say it but you don't stand a chance against that thing!" Speedwagon wanted nothing more than to help Jonathan, but he knew full well that neither of them stood a chance and that even Dio couldn't be compared to that thing.

"I have no choice! It is heading right to us! Now hide in that cave there!" Jonathan yelled before jumping a dozen meters into the air and landing on the top of a tree, ready to fight. Speedwagon retreated into the cave a little, but he could still see everything that happened. Although he disliked needing to hide, he knew full well that he would only be in the way when Jonathan fought that, and then their chances of survival would plummet even further.

"Come dragon! Let us work things this out as gentlemen's!" Jonathan yelled as he challenged a dragon.

———————————————

Alduin had just come back from his time inside time, and he immediately knew he had been weakened. He could feel an enormous portion of his strength was gone. Alduin headed out and eat to regain his strength before an enemy could find him when he was vulnerable. He would have originally gone to eat a city, but he felt some type of powerful threat from the small town near him and couldn't resist burning it down.

After he had finished destroying everything there, he was going to head to help one of his friends, but on his way he spotted a very large mortal that resembled a giant, but a shorter, and stronger one. He figured that eating that would help him regain more strength than the entire town had and flown over for a quick snack. He didn't however expect for the mortal to challenge him to a duel.

'Zurun fah joor wah jur zey sinon krif nunon fah niist lahney, nuz Zu'u lorfonaar nii isnt riid, Zu'u vis krii mok *Strange for a mortal to challenge me instead of fighting only for their lives, but I guess it isnt important, I can kill him easily*' Alduin thought to himself curiously. (I am using a translator for the words that can be translated, so it is definately going to be wrong, just ignore it and pretend that its right.)

He flew directly in front of of JoJo and landed on a cave, directly facing Jonathan.

"Kril do hi joor, wah jur nahlii grik ol dimaar wah vukein. Uv fent Zu'u saag hefahus? *Brave of you mortal, to challenge a being such as myself to combat. Or should I say idiotic?*" Alduin said arrogantly as he looked down on Jonathan.

"I don't know what it is you are saying dragon, but I challenged you to protect myself, if you do not wish to fight, please leave now! I don't want to hurt you as I have no qualms with you, however if you do not leave I will have no choice but to attack!" Jonathan yelled back while showing a defensive gaze at the dragon.

"Eh, geh, nunon vogaan do hi joor vis tinvaak dovahzul. Nid trun, Zu'u bo wah krii hi naanven, ful tinvaak los seiknu. Nii los brahnu! *Ah, yes, only a few of you mortals can speak dovahzul. No matter, I am going to kill you anyway, so conversation is meaningless. It is useless!*" Alduin said.

"Brahnu? That last one felt familiar, weird." Jonathan mumbled under his breath as he remembered Dio for some reason. He then remembered his situation and looked back at the dragon, who was now obviously ready to fight.

"I see, so you wish to battle after all. Although I don't wish to fight, if we must, I will. Lets begin!" Jonathan said in a tone of pity before he got into his POSE and started to exhale menacingly.

Alduin was prepared to fight and kill a mortal, what he wasn't prepared for however was to fight one with an unfamiliar magic.

———————————————-

*HOOOOOOOOOO*

As Jonathan began his deep exhale, his body erupted with a golden light as yellow sparks crackled around ever surface of his body, with a higher concentration being in his hands.

He looked the surprised dragon in the eyes as he leapt forward. He pulled his fist back as he got closer to the dragon's head, which was still fixated on the treetop, as if it was an idiot and couldn't see the glowing hulk of a man right next to him. Jonathan punched forward toward Alduins head with all his strength and yelled at the top of his lungs,

"ORA!"

When the punch connected, Alduins face was sent to the side a few meters by the shock wave, one of which created a sound so loud it it sounded like a bomb.

"I can't believe it! JoJo just used his hamon breathing to move at such a speed that the dragon couldn't even see him. Then he punched it with enough force that the air itself trembled! Truly unbelievable. I wonder who I am narrating to?" Speedwagon said to himself in astonishment after watching Jonathan land an attack that strong on a dragon.

Alduin responded by flapping his wings and shooting upward by a few dozen meters. He looked down on Jonathan in surprise and disbelief as he focused on the sting he was feeling beneath his scales.

'Vir los nii korasaal fah nunal joor wah iidah voth tol pogaas suleyk? Nii lost ful suleykaar tol los prii fraan ol waan Zu'u lost iidah naal dii meyar mul! *How is it possible for a mere mortal to attack with that much power? It was so powerful that is almost feels as if I was attacked by my own strength!*' It astonished Alduin that the mortal standing in front of him was as strong as he was.

"I will give you one more chance, dragon! Leave now or I will not hold back!" Jonathan yelled as he really didn't want to make enemies with a creature that he had just met.

"Gevild zek? Dreh hi honestly zent zey wah korah tol hi mii hin jahrii mul? Tol fund kos utterly meyus. *Holding back? Do you honestly expect me to believe that you weren't using your full strength? That would be utterly foolish." Alduin said back as he got ready to attack himself.

"I take that as a no? What is it that compels you to fight on? Is it your pride? Whatever the case, I will no longer hold back!" Jonathan then took his signature POSE and his all the hamon was focused to his fists. He looked at the dragon in front of him with a feeling of confidence as he felt the hamon rush through his body, giving him tremendous strength.

He jumped up, causing him to once again shoot toward Alduin at inhuman speeds. However, before he could even make it halfway, the dragon opened its mouth and spoke.

"Tiid Klo Ul! *Toki wo tomare!*"

Time seemed to slow to a crawl as Jonathan found himself floating almost immobile midair, as if time had completely stopped for everything but his mind.

(Alduin is a dragon king, so his shouts being a hundred times more potent makes more sense than him being as strong as one of those legendary dragons, the final fight would have been a lot more exciting if this was the case. So, this is how he will be in this fanfic. Also, slow time is different from the Za Warudo, so everyone can still think at the same speed, they just can't move normally unless they are the one that shouted.)

Jonathan found that he could barely move his fingers as he kept his eyes focused on the dragon in front of him, who was moving just fine, just slightly slower.

"Yol Toor Shul!"

A massive pillar of fire shot out of Alduins mouth as heat radiated through the air, causing it to visibly heat up.

"Oh No! If JoJo can't get out of there right now he is going to be burned to a crisp! But he can't move as the dragon seems to have slowed time down to almost a stop! Is this the end?" Speedwagons spoke out loud as he was frozen, which greatly confused Alduin as he could still talk. What Alduin didn't know was that the second a JoJo entered this world, many things stopped making sense, including the ability to talk without taking any time to do so.

"Zu'u vis skilaan daar vensekos do sein tiid fah twenty ziist, ko daar tiid nii fen kos peh vahk wah krii hi! *I can maintain this state of slowed time for twenty seconds, in this time it will be quite easy to kill you!*" Alduin said arrogantly, not caring that the mortal beneath him didn't know what he was saying. He could speak in his language, but why would an all powerful dragon, first born of Akatosh, and world eater, resort to mortal speech with a mere human? Not even one of his own kind!

Alduin also seemed to forget that he was currently breathing fire and talking at the same time, making full use of the strange talking mechanics in JJBA.

'As this heat speeds toward me in such a furious manner, I can't help but look back at my life and remember all the good times I have had. My time as a child with Dio. My time training with Zeppeli. My entire adventure. Speaking of which, I wonder if Zeppeli is in this place as well, that is, if it really is the afterlife. I am truly grateful to him for all of his teachings. His teachings, I might lose them all again if I die here! I can't let it happen again, they must be remembered! Think, Jonathan! What can you do!.' Jonathan began his light speed thinking as he tried to look for a solution.

'Wait, that's it! Why was my hamon that powerful when I attacked the dragon a second ago? I wasn't even using all of my strength or exerting myself at all, so why was it still so powerful? And did I sense some other type of force mixed in with my ripple? Perhaps if I can harness them both, I might be able to save myself!' Jonathan recalled the weird energy that he felt flowing alongside his hamon as he attacked Alduin for the first time.

He focused inside his body as he felt his life energy move through him as a ripple, and alongside it, he found the new energy he was looking for! It was unlike hamon, which felt like a flowing river through his body. This new power instead felt like a calm, focused spark. As if it was lightning in a bottle, an immeasurable amount of power focused in small, dense amounts throughout his body.

He took a deep breath and moved his hamon through his body, willing it to mimic the quality of fire. He then had the new energy join in, enhancing his hamon to a new level. His body erupted in a golden energy with a slight tint of scarlet. There were golden sparks flickering across his body, with an occasional purple one.

(Joseph had to learn to take ten full deep breaths in a single second, Jonathan was more powerful in hamon than Joseph, so I am going to assume he could do more. So, while Jonathan can't move freely, the slowed time doesn't really affect his breathing much.)

"Scarlet Overdrive!"

Just as the energy finished covering Jonathan's body, the fire from the dragon hit him. But instead of the fire burning him, it simply slid off of him, after all, fire can't burn fire. Jonathan had covered his body in a fire that can't hurt him, yet is still fire, completely canceling out the dragon's flames! (Ignore logic, it doesn't matter.)

The fire simply flew past him, leaving him there completely unaffected! The forest behind however wasn't as lucky as it was set on fire.

"Absolutely outstanding! JoJo covered his body in the scarlet overdrive at the last second, completely nullifying the attack the dragon shot at him! We might have a chance of surviving after all!" Speedwagon shouted with an overjoyed expression.

"Yol lu? Zu'u didnt mindok nii vust kos mii ko grik ven. Wah lorot tol joor lost ativut tol pogaas ko nunon vogaan thousand eruvos! Nid trun, Zu'u tul lost vorey thuums tol fen kroson nunon flogah. *Fire magic? I didn't know it could be used in such a way. To think that mortals have advanced that much in just a few thousand years! No matter, I still have other thuums that will work just fine.*" Alduin said as he flew in closer and prepared to attack again.

"FUS RO DA-"

Just as Alduin was about to finish the thuum, he stopped abruptly and starred at Jonathan. Just now, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Jonathans finger move! He watched as more and more of Jonathan's body began to move at normal speed, despite slowed time still being in effect.

Jonathan slowly started to move parts of his body, but by bit, starting with his fingers at normal speeds instead of extremely slow. After less then a slowed second, he was able to move his entire body at normal speed.

"N-" 'Fos los daar rot tol unt wah filok dii zahr, Zu'u dont mindok nii! *What is this word that is trying to escape my mouth, I don't know it!' Alduin struggled to keep it in for as long as he could, but he couldn't resist and the word escaped. "NANI?"

"I see! Jonathan is using his newly enhanced hamon to forcefully move his body at super speed! He is still under the effect of this slowed time, but he is moving so fast that it doesn't matter! If time was normal right now, he would be moving at speeds invisible to the human eye!" Speedwagon yelled while providing Alduin an explanation.

"Vokorasaal! Til los nid ven tol joor kurahiv nelom ustiid tol do zey ahst dii jahrii mul! Zu'u taavin wah korah nii! *Impossible! There is no way that a mortal achieved speeds past that of me at my full strength! I refuse to believe it!*" Alduin yelled as he began his unrelenting force thuum once more.

Unfortunately for him, he was to late. Jonathan turned around and used a hamon enhanced kick to thrust himself forward through the air, straight at Alduin.

"Dragon! I have tried over and over again to convince you to leave us in peace, yet you prevail! I have been left with no choice but to fight, so I will not hold back!" Jonathan shouted as he sped toward the dragon.

——————————————

Back on the ground, Speedwagon noticed someone approaching him at an extremely slow speed. There were two people beside him in the cave watching the fight, two that he hadn't noticed until now as he was to focused on the fight. One of them was an average height of 1.9m (6.3). He had a strong facial structure, brown hair that went down to his shoulders, and Pale green eyes. He was wearing a set of armor that appeared to be made of leather, as if he was a soldier.

The second person was a little different, though. Speedwagon couldn't see his face, but he could tell that the man was watching the fight with admiration in his eyes as he looked at Jonathan. All Speedwagon could tell about the man beside him was that he was a man, liked fighting, and was wearing a strange set of armor that seemed to be made of iron. He wore a helmet with horns on them, and a cloak as well, so all of his facial features are hidden in shadow.

Speedwagon decided to go back to watching the fight as he would deal with them after time was normal again.

——————————————

"Daar los vokorasaal! Nii vis kos! Fah nunal joor wah bovortii zey ko nelom! Nii los vomindoraan! *This is impossible! It cant be! For a mere mortal to surpass me in speed! It is inconceivable!*" Alduin yelled as he tried to back up, however he was also slowed down slightly during time slow, and with hi already being weakened, he was slower then Jonathan.

"SUNLIGHT YELLOW OVERDRIVE!"

Jonathans body flashed with a bright yellow light, with a few hints of pure transparent rainbow here and there, as he pulled back, and punched the dragon. His arms and fists turned into a blur as he punched at such a speed that his over a hundred punches had landed on Alduin before he could even acknowledge them. As if time was delayed, shock waves only started appearing a short while after Jonathan started his barrage.

"Ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora ora!"

Jonathan pulled back and entered his combat stance once more, before charging up his final attack. The hamon across his body concentrated in his fist, leaving only a thin layer around the rest of him. His fist crackled with energy as power radiated from it. He punched out once more.

"ORA!"

With that last punch, a shockwave exited the back of Alduins body, sending scales on his back flying off. The rest of his scales were either cracked, or shattered entirely, with only a few remaining intact. Alduin was sent flying through the air as his slowed time seemed to stop working.

He just barely managed to catch himself and start flying with his wings before he hit a nearby cliff. "Hi fen groso daar joor! Hi aal lahney dahsul, nuz fod Zu'u daal, Zu'u vaat Zu'u fen wahl hi biis fah daar! *You will regret this mortal! You may live today, but when I return, I swear I will make you pay for this embarrassment!*" Alduin yelled back as he retreated.

He had gone there to get another snack and regain a bit more of his strength, but was instead humiliated and put into an even worse state then before! He couldn't even resurrect other dragons right now as they would immediately challenge him after seeing his current state! And he was not confident in winning against a majority of them. He did however swear that he would return one day to get his revenge, for now however, he will retreat to Sovngarde to eat the souls of the dead.

—————————————

Jonathan landed back on the ground as all of the hamon on his body disappeared. He went back to looking like a normal blue haired, extreme bodybuilder. The only difference now being that he looked a little exhausted and had a few small cuts and scuffs here and there. He then breathed out as he put on a face of exhaustion. He could feel his eyes drooping as he wanted to sleep, and he could feel the soreness spreading through all his muscles. That's the drawback that he wasn't expecting when he forced his body to break human speed limits.

Speedwagon ran up to Jonathan ignoring the other two people. "JoJo! You just won a fight against a dragon!" Speedwagon said cheerfully as he put his hand on Jonathans shoulder and laughed.

"Yes, I know. I don't know how I did it though, if it weren't for this new energy in my body, I think that I might have been killed by that first fire breath! I would like to know what it is though, and where it came from." Jonathan said as he summoned his hamon and purple sparks appeared along with the golden ones.

"That was strange wasn't it? I knew you were strong, but I didnt think that you were at such a level! To think that just adding that new energy would allow you to show such amazing feats of strength! Quite bizarre really." Speedwagon told him thoughtfully.

*Snap*

Jonathan heard the sound of footsteps, so he cautiously looked over Speedwagons shoulder. He saw two people, a brown haired one, and one who he couldn't see. They were both standing straight with their hands at their sides, as if they were nervous.

"And who are these two Speedwagon?" Jonathan asked as he walked up to them.

"Aw, yes, they are the pair that showed up next to me during your fight. They walked up next to me from the cave, I don't know what they were doing in the cave though. Who are you two?" Speedwagon explained then asked the pair.

"Y-Yes sir! My name is Hadvar! I am a soldier of the empire sir!" He spoke loudly as he looked with respect at the two.

"Hello, I am Abraham" The other said respectfully.

"Woah. calm down! Why are you two acting like you are meeting the Queen?" Jonathan asked hastily as he didnt like it when people looked up to him this much.

"Well sir, you just heavily injured the dragon that attacked and killed most of the people in the village we just escaped from. Not only that but it was an almost one sided fight! You are one of the greatest warriors I have ever met to be able to do something like that. And with your bare hands at that! Even if you did use magic, you did it up close and casted it on your fists! That is not something someone would do unless they are utterly foolish, or incredibly powerful and brave. As you won, you are obviously the latter! It would be a disgrace if I didnt show you my respect!" Hadvar said as he continued to act stiff.

"Hm" The other said, not showing much else other then slight respect as he said little.

"Well you don't need to act like this okay! I am just a normal person like any of you!" Jonathan said as he tried to defend himself.

"Nonsense! We must show our respect and our gratitude! If you need anything, please do ask!" Hadvar said as he tried to make sure they knew they could rely on him for help if they need it.

"Well, we are fairly unfamiliar with where we are, do you mind helping us out?" Speedwagon pointed out.

"I see, although I don't know how you managed to come here without knowing it, that isnt any of my business. You are in Skyrim! The northernmost country of Tamriel! This is the land of the nords… and now dragons again as well, I guess." Hadvar said most of that proudly, with that last one being a little uncertain.

"Hmm, Skyrim, Tamriel, nords and dragons, Speedwagon it does seem like this really is the afterlife, or at least some form of it." Jonathan whispered in Speedwagons ear after hearing them.

"Yes it would seem so, perhaps that theory of reincarnation is what we are experiencing. Though, I'd wager that we would have been reborn as babies if that were the case, so it probably more akin to transmigration." Speedwagon explains quietly.

While they were whispering to each other, Abraham was thinking about a different matter. 'Hm, what kind of magic is that? I know for a fact that magic like that wasn't in the game, so why is it here? Maybe the game just didnt portray the full magical possibilities and they did it unrealistically, similar to how the graphics are? I don't know, I will have to look into it.'

"Could you point out any cities near here where we could go?" Speedwagon asked Hadvar.

"Oh yes! I guess you wouldn't have any residence if you are travelers. There are two cities close by and one smaller village. To the north-east that way is both Riverwood and Whiterun. Riverwood will be the smaller village you come across if you travel down the path next to the river. Its small and not as safe, but I'm sure safety isn't a concern for someone as strong as you two. There probably isn't any land for sale there as of now, but you could stay in the inn until you find a house or have one build." Hadvar said as he pointed toward the river below the mountain with the ruin on it.

Although Hadvar was a soldier and not a realtor, he was going to do his best to help these two out after Jonathan preformed such a glorious feat and not only avenged Helgen (mostly, they didnt get to kill him, but its close enough), but he also did so without getting to injured. After all of that he had enough respect for them to do his best in helping them out.

"The next place farther East is Whiterun. Its one of the larger cities so there are a lot of people there. They are one of the neutral parties right now in terms of politics, so you probably wont have to worry about hearing to much about that, well, unless you hang around the Grey Manes and Battle Borns, then you are going to get dragged into the thick of it. It is also home to the Companions, so I'm sure a warrior of your level is interested in that." Hadvar stated while looking at Jonathans massive build and extremely muscular frame that basically screams warrior, despite the magic he saw earlier.

"The final city around here is Falkreath. Its a much smaller city to the west, however it is still larger then places like Riverwood nonetheless. There are a lot less people there and it is a creepy place as it holds Skyrims largest graveyard. It is however a lot more quiet and probably has some nice houses you can find, though you would need to be a citizen first. It is a city under the legion so you should expect those soldiers." Hadvar finished explaining.

"I see." Jonathan said to them before he started muttering under his breath. "So if we want information we should go to Whiterun. If we want peace and quiet in our afterlife we should go to Riverwood, and if we want to do both but at a lower efficiency we should go to Falkreath."

While Jonathan was thinking Speedwagon spoke up. "So where are you going to go now?" Speedwagon asked the two.

"Well, as there is a dragon now, there could be more. I am going to take him to my uncles house in Riverwood to get him some supplies and figure out what to do next." Hadvar answered truthfully.

"I see, Speedwagon and I will be going to Falkreath then. I will warn the mayor or whoever is in charge there that there is a dragon flying around, that should raise their security right?" Jonathan asked as he finished contemplating the different locations.

"That's a good decision, after all, people are difficult to deal with, and its easier if there are less of them am I right? But not to few." Hadvar said jokingly as he acted like a nervous fanboy in front of them.

"Well, although I am sure it would be interesting to talk to you about housing all day, there is a dragon that we need to deal with. I hate to be rude, but we need to excuse ourselves to deal with that." Abraham suddenly said before the conversation could continue.

Hadvar was about to say something about his rudeness to the warriors that basically saved them, at least in his view, however Jonathan intervened.

"That's right! That dragon is the biggest threat right now and time is giving it power, you best be off to Riverwood then. We should also hurry as that is not the only place that needs to be warned! Come Speedwagon, let us go. We simply need to follow the path right?" Jonathan said hurriedly in a weird way, as if he actually wanted to get away from those two.

"Ah, yes, yes we should be going now, If meet again we will talk then!" Speedwagon said as he confusedly followed Jonathan.

The other two stood there for a second thinking they did something wrong, before they simply decided to think about it later and set of to Riverwood.

"Why did you want to get out of there in such a hurry, that isn't like you?" Speedwagon questioned Jonathan as they walked.

"I just fought and basically humiliated a dragon in the open. And based off of the way they acted, dragons are rather powerful here. If someone else were to see us acting all friendly with them after my display of strength, there is a strong possibly that they could target those two to get to us. It is best not to put strangers we just met in danger because we were careless right?" Jonathan said back as he looked back and cringed on his rude display.

"I guess that makes sense, you really are the same Jonathan as before aren't you?" Speedwagon said with nostalgia in his voice as he spoke.

"What are you talking about, of course I am, now, tell me more about my children and grandson." Jonathan asked as he chuckled.
