"Khanasu, the queen of vampires... you haven't changed since our last meeting all those years ago." Papa Tengu says, as he holds his sword.

"Yes, how long has it been? Thirty years since we last saw each other. You always had a substantial aura about you for a blind man." Khanasu walks around Papa Tengu slowly in a circle, literally licking her lips.

"So, where's that cantankerous half breed of yours? I thought I would find her lurking somewhere in this abismal shithole." Papa Tengu simply stands firm, upon hearing Khanasu's disrepectful words.

"Sorry to dissapoint you, but all you have found here is me, greeting you with a sword." Papa Tengu says.

"Yes... you greet me with a sword, but I greet you with my predators, they live to kill and devour. Taishima, Marishka... show him the true meaning of terror." Taishima and Marishka surround Papa Tengu, and they try to attack him at the same time, but the voodoo master traps them both in a circle of purple like mist.

"I wouldn't move if I were you two, if you suckheads so much as move a finger, that poision mist will turn you both to ash." Papa Tengu warns them.

"Impressive, you have improved your magic. But, let's see if your skills with a sword are still in peak condition." Khanasu unsheathes her sword and she points it at Papa Tengu.

"Let the sword speak the word of destiny, and may it spell doom for one of us." Papa Tengu says removing his sword from his robe. Papa Tengu then removes his robe, to reveal a suit of armor. 

Khanasu and Tengu cross their swords, parrying each others attacks with percision and ferocity. As Taishima and Marishka look on, they are astonished at their speed and technique.

As they both cross swords with each other, Papa Tengu tries to decapitate Khanasu, but Khanasu ducks and she severs the bottom half of his left leg. Before he falls to the ground, Khanasu grabs Papa Tengu and she bites him, drinking a great amout of his blood. 

"So long, my old teacher. If only you could see the new world I shall bring..." she proceedes to brutally beat and kick Papa Tengu, adding further insult to injury. The purple mist dissapates from Taishima and Marishka, giving them mobility in their limbs.

"Let us go, we have a hybrid to find!" The three vampires leave the dojo, while Papa Tengu lies in a pool of his own blood, slowly succumbing to the curse of the vampire.

Two hours later, Kashimba and the others arrive back at the dojo, noticing a change in the atmosphere. Kashimba smells a stench in the air, finding it offputting.

"Be on guard guys, I have a bad feeling about this." Kashimba warns the others. As they enter the dojo, they see a pool of blood on the wooden floor. Kashimba takes out her double barrel handgun, staying alert.

"Kashimba!" Kane calls Kashimba over towards the corner of the dojo, where Papa Tengu lies covered in blood and his left leg missing.

"Master... hang on!" Kane says full of tears.

"I'll get the first aid kit!" Papa Tengu grabs Raidou's arm, stopping him from trying to help.

"It's too late, you two go outside... I need to speak with Kashimba." Papa Tengu tells them, his voice becoming frail. As Raidou and Kane exit the room, Kashimba kneels beside a dying Papa Tengu.

"What did you find out?" Papa Tengu asks her while clutching his neck.

"They want my blood, something about becoming gods..." Kashimba answers.

"Just as I feared... they want to bring about the vampire age. The end of the fucking world! They have been working on this for centuries..." Papa Tengu says, groaning in pain.

"You're the key to that happening, your blood will trigger the apocalypse. Listen to me Kashimba, you must kill them all, don't let them get your blood, if they do, we lose." As Papa Tengu winces in pain, he grabs Kashimba's hand.

"Khanasu bit me... you're going to have to end me." Kashimba looks at Papa Tengu, conflicted on what to do.

"We can treat the wounds... I can help you." She says softly.

"No... it's too far gone. When I took you in, I helped you find honor in your darkest moment. Please, allow me to die with honor, while I am still human." Papa Tengu tells her.

"Take me out to the garden, I want a last look at the trees." Kashimba nods, with a small tear falling down her left eye. She carries him out to the courtyard, where the cherry blossom trees blow in the wind.
