Royce and Jimmy slept the rest of the night after the confrontation with the new Rayne. However, considering all of the events prior to that, there wasn't much night left when they went back to sleep. They woke up at the same time about two hours later.

"Long night, huh?" Jimmy asked Royce. It was more of a rhetorical question, but he was looking for some response to start a conversation.

"Yup. It's very dramatic," Royce said. Jimmy laughed, thinking back to when Dennis said that the night before. "What do you think's gonna happen?"

"Whatcha mean by that?"

"I mean with the vampire chick and all that. Should we tell the others? No, that's stupid. They don't give a fuck. I don't know. She said that she could destroy us."

"We can destroy her."

"How's that, Jimbo?"

"Nix on the Jimbo, Prince," Jimmy said. "Haven't you ever read or heard myths about vampires?"

"What's that?" The Hammer asked, suddenly appearing in the graveyard.

"Well. There are different types. I don't remember what, but they were all mostly the same. You stab 'em in the heart with a wooden stake. Then you're supposed to cut their head off. After you do that, you're supposed to put garlic in their mouth and bury the body. That's supposed to kill the demon and release the soul," Jimmy explained.

"There's more'n just Rayne," George said.

"How do you know that?" Royce asked.

"Visions. I gets 'em, too. They gonna kill ya'll. Had ta help. Brought more wit me, too."

"What do you mean by more?" Jimmy asked curiously.

"The others?" Royce asked hopefully.

"All but Da Pilgrimess and Marg and Harry," George responded. At the mention of those three names, all of the other ghosts appeared in the graveyard as well.

"Where are those whores?" Ryan shouted. "I want to kill!"

"Only at night, creep!" Susan said to him. "The vampires only come out at night!"

"Just like whores!" Ryan cried excitedly.

"We've got to think of a plan," Dana said.

"Yes," Breaker added. "A plan of attack. Ideas. Where are they staying?"

"Probably the only building that's not burned down," Royce said. "That would be that way." He pointed in the direction that was still yet to be explored by the ghosts. "That's the only place there could be any buildings."

"Let's start strategizing then, shall we?" Jimmy added.

"Rayne, darling, what did you do last night?" The Master of the vampires asked.

"Nothing, sire. I tormented the boy some. He believes that I am still completely Rayne. You should've seen his heart sink when I turned," Rayne laughed.

"What then, is THIS?" He cried angrily. A smoke formed, and in the middle, there were the eight ghosts. They were all sitting in a circle in the graveyard.

"So that's how we're going to surround them?" Dana asked. The cloud then disappeared with the image of the ghosts.

"They're planning on attacking US! How the HELL do they know where we are?!" He asked, his face distorting and his eyes turning red with anger, instead of yellow. Rayne cowered under his stare.

"I-I didn't do anything!" Rayne cried. Again the cloud appeared, but this time to past events.

"We will meet again! But the only reason is your destruction!" Rayne cried as she flew into the night. Once again, the cloud, along with the image disappeared.

"You threatened him! I told you that we weren't going to fucking do anything!" He grabbed Rayne by the throat and lifted her from the ground. Her eyes filled with terror as she began to think what he could do to her. She choked and gurgled as she grabbed his arms and tried to pull him off of her.

"I-I-meant nothing!" She rasped. He then threw her to the ground and turned his back on her.

"Those ghosts are coming here to destroy us! We need a plan! We WILL destroy them now! We have no choice!" He began to walk away. "And Rayne."

"Yes?" She asked softly, holding on to her throat.

"You'd better hope that they kill you because if they don't, then I WILL!" He then stormed off.

Being that it was day light, all of the other vampires were asleep, waiting for the night to come. The building they inhabited was run-down, however all of the windows and doors as well as the cracks in the walls and ceiling were safely boarded up. Rayne crept back to the sleeping quarters and attempted to put herself to sleep. She was determined that she was not going to get killed and her Master was not going to kill her, either. As the day went on, she thought of a plan of attack. By night, they would be ready to take on these ghosts and all live, while she would sneak away so that she would not be killed.
