A storm of spiritual energy gathers in the hotel room.

**BOOM**

Second stage… Johnny thinks, not losing focus.

The storm continues to rumble and like whirlpool, all the energy is pulled into Johnny's body.

**BOOM**

Third stage… Johnny thinks with a sigh, waiting as the remnant energies gather in his body.

Johnny lets out a sigh and stands. “Alright, if I'm not back by the morning, run. Leo will go back to the East Kingdom to draw away their attention, and those that I care about will go home.” He says, preparing himself for a battle of life and death.

Leo lets out a bitter smile. Does he have to say it like that? He asks himself.

Mary Rose gives Johnny a kiss and says, “Be careful.”

Lucy hesitates for a moment, before also giving Johnny a kiss on his lips. “I’ll be waiting for you.” She says.

Mary Rose could only glare angrily.

Johnny lets out an awkward laugh. “Don’t wait up.” He says before leaving.

A vampire was laying in his room, rubbing his chest. Tree root like scars had spread out from his chest to the rest of his body. Weirdly enough, he had been struck by lightning earlier today.

He lets out an awkward laughter. That was like a lifetime of bad luck. I think I’m now free to commit all sorts of despicable acts. Who cares about the price? I already paid! He thinks smugly.

Suddenly, the vampire feels a weird sensation on his neck, then his vision went dark and his consciousness left him.

Johnny looks down at the vampire and raises an eyebrow. Is that my bad luck amulet? Hmm. It seems we are fated, little one. Johnny says with a smile as he picks up the bad luck amulet.

…

…

Slowly, but surely, the vampires in the compound were being assassinated. The ones sixth stage and below were killed effortlessly, and although Johnny struggled a little bit with the stage sevens, they were still killed without creating too much of a ruckus.

Then, outside a certain window, Johnny took several deep breaths to steady himself. He looks inside and scattered limbs and body parts littered the room; an eighth stage vampire was sleeping soundly in his bed.

Johnny frowns. That was most certainly the virgin he saw earlier.

Johnny takes a few more breaths to calm his anxiety, before saying, “Fuck it,” and crashing through the window.

Johnny quickly approaches the sleeping vampire and places his bad luck amulet on its neck.

The vampire’s eyes widen and he strikes out with his palm.

Johnny’s body flew back and collided with the wall before collapsing on the ground. Johnny quickly got up and left through the window.

The eighth stage vampire frowns and promptly follows.

In the courtyard, Johnny cracks his neck and begins to warm up. “Game time. Game time, Johnny. Don’t bitch out. Let’s do this.” He says as he jogs in place.

The eighth stage vampire raises an eyebrow but decides not to care.

Hundreds of blood spears materialize in the air before shooting at Johnny at inconceivable speeds.

Johnny tries his best to dodge, but the spears were too fast. Although he tried his best, Johnny couldn’t help but stumble and trip. Johnny quickly reacts and stands up to continue dodging. Weirdly enough, he didn’t die when he tripped and he was now in a place where the spears were quite sparse. Johnny lets out a smile. Awesome. He thinks before bolting forward towards the vampire.

The vampire frowns before beginning to send out his blood miasma, but suddenly lightning came down from the heavens and struck him right in the face.

Johnny smirks and quickly approaches, an intense amount of yang energy was in both his hands.

One hit took a chunk of flesh.

Another hit and the vampire lost his liver.

Another hit and his face was disfigured.

“Aaaaahhh!!!” The vampire yells before taking out his sword and slashing wildly into the surroundings like a wild beast.

Johnny watches him from a distance before extending his palm. Beam after beam of yang energy was sent out, piercing into the vampire’s body.

Eventually, the vampire’s will became weak and he collapses onto the ground.

Johnny approaches and removes the vampire’s heart before letting out a sigh. Unfortunately he couldn’t relax. He had to erase as many traces of what happened here as possible. The vampires of Movie Capital were like small limbs of a much greater beast; if Johnny didn’t do a good job, it was possible he could be hunted to the ends of the earth.
