Danny parked his bike and let Ace jump out of the saddlebag. The small ghost dog sniffed the lawn. Danny waited as the dog tried to find the scent of Technus. He had gone to the safe house a few miles away and restocked his weapons. The guy in charge of The Northern House was Russian and he barley understood a word he said. Danny looked up to the moon, "We have a few more hours until daybreak." He walked over to the dog as it poked around the rubble in front of the house, "Any luck?" The dog shook his head and kept searching. Danny's whip started to glow red. He turned around and spotted several skeletons in armor walking towards them. "Guess the corpse vampires were losing too much." He ran at the group of skeletons. An aura of white energy formed around him and he shot into the group like a bullet. The skeletons he smashed into exploded into dust. Danny ducked several sword swipes and flew into the air. He summoned a sphere of white energy, "I don't have time to play." He tossed the orb and it destroyed the remaining skeletons. "I know he has more troops than this." Danny landed on the ground, "Why is he sending so little after me?" Ace started to bark. "Find something?" The ghost dog nodded and started to run. Danny jumped onto his bike and followed. After several minutes, Ace stopped in front of a sewer cover. Danny got off his bike and set up his bike defense field. He moved the cover and Ace jumped in. Danny dropped into the sewer. It was dark. Danny reached into his coat pocket and pulled out a pair of goggles. Instead of glass, they had green gems for lenses. He slipped them on and he saw everything as clear as day. He followed Ace down several tunnels before reaching a large steel door. Ace scratched at the door as Danny approached, "Good work!" Danny took off the goggles, "Stay here!" Ace whimpered. Danny smiled and patted him on the head, "Until we can get you back to normal so you can grow in size, you need to be careful. I'll be fine!" Ace silently nodded and Danny pushed the door open. He stepped into another large dungeon like room. "How many of these things did you guys build?"

"Many!" Technus appeared at the far end of the room, "This is one of my testing areas for my creations." He snapped his fingers and five coffins rose out of the floor. They were made of dark metal and had chain locks on them. "If you thought my last great creation was great, these will blow your mind away." The locks vanished and the coffins exploded. Five large human like creatures stood in the coffins place. Seven feet tall with metal armor fused to their bodies.

"More mindless zombies!" Large swords shot out of their arms and they roared. Danny stood ready, "If this is what it is going to take to take you out?" Danny reached around and pulled a small axe from his back. He held it in front of him, "Axe Crash!" Five axes of white energy floated around him and shot at the creatures. The axes impacted the zombies. They left marks, but did little to them. Danny cursed, "Tough!" He returned the axe to its holster. He flew at the zombies and fired several energy beams. The beams smacked the creatures back. Danny spun in mid air and slammed his feet into one. He bounced off and fell to the ground. "Very tough!" Two of the creatures slammed their swords down. Danny rolled clear. The remaining three charged forward and swung their swords. Danny went transparent to avoid the attacks and flew back until he reached the door he had come in. Danny grabbed the two crosses on his belt and spun them around. "Don't have a choice!" Danny ran at the group of creatures. All five surrounded him and started to close in on him. The crosses glowed blue as Danny continued to spin them. The whip glowed blue as Danny slammed the two crosses together, "Holy Cross!" A large pillar of light surrounded him as two huge metal crosses spun around it. They smashed into the creatures, ripping them apart. After a few seconds, the crosses vanished and the pillar exploded. The creatures were blasted back. Danny dropped to his knee. Smoke was rising from his body as he struggled to catch his breath, "These weapons are going to be the death of me."

Technus clapped his hands as he walked up to Danny, "Very good ghost child. Your mastery of the holy weapons of the Belmont Clan is most impressive. However!" Technus slapped Danny down with the back of his hand, "But those weapons effect you almost as well as they effected my minions." He stepped back and snapped his fingers. A large screen lowered from the ceiling. "I wonder what will kill you first. Me, your weapons, or this?" The screen flickered on, but suddenly shut off. "What? How can I have him suffer if this thing doesn't work?" He pounded his fist on the screen, "I am the master of all things electronic and beeping. You will obey me and show this child the horrors that my master is inflicting." Technus hand started to glow green and he reached for the screen. He suddenly slammed into it so hard that the screen fell on him.

Danny had managed to fire a pair of holy beams into the ghost while his back was turned. Ace came running in and licked his face. Danny smiled and sat down, "That was close." The screen started to shake. Ace jumped forward and started to bark as Technus pushed the screen off him. "Ace! Down!" The dog slowly backed away as Danny pushed himself up, "You're a lot tougher than I remember!"

"Being part vampire has really been a boon." Technus held his hand out and a large blue staff appeared in it. "Feel fortunate that my master wants you alive."

"And you should fell sorry that I'm willing to knock myself out in order to kill you!"

"What?"

Danny's eyes flashed green as the whip around his right arm activated and wrapped around his fist. It erupted with white light and Danny rammed his chained fist into Technus' jaw. The vampire's head snapped back as Danny jumped to his feet. The whip fell from Danny's fist and he swung it. The whip slammed into the ghost's chest and he was blasted across the room. "How is that?"

Technus rolled to his feet. He had managed to hold onto his power staff, "Not bad! But how long will you be able to keep that whip in your grasp?"

"Long enough!" Danny slammed the whip into the ground and a white shockwave shot through the ground.

Technus slammed his staff onto the floor and a purple shield blocked the attack, "All I have to do is wait." He pointed the staff and black energy shot from it. Danny spun the chain in front of him and the energy was deflected. Danny charged at the ghost and swung the whip at him. Technus blocked the strike with his staff and flew past him. Before Danny could react, the ghost blasted him in the side. Technus laughed as Danny pushed himself up, "Is this all ghost child? If I had known you would be this lame, I would have just built a few more minions instead of wasting my time." Technus aimed his staff again, but Ace jumped up and locked his small jaw on the ghost's hand. Technus yelled and dropped his staff, "Get off you mangy mongrel!"

Danny took the opportunity and flung his chain whip at Technus. It wrapped around the ghost effectively tying him up. The ghost teen pulled out a small crystal from his belt and gripped it into his fist. He shot forward and rammed the fist into Technus' jaw, ""Aguena!" Lightning exploded from his fist and blasted Technus back. Ace dropped to the ground as the ghost crashed into the far wall. Before he could recover, Danny crouched down and cross his arms, "Holy Dagger Crash!" Several daggers of light appeared around him and shot at Technus. They impacted the ghost hard and exploded. Danny fell to his knees, "Tired!"

Technus slowly rolled to his feet. The whip fell to the floor, "I grow tired of you. I will now finish this and bring your broken body to my master." Technus yelled out and flew at Danny. Danny reached around and drew to wooden stake from his back. He jumped up and impaled Technus as was about to reach him. "NO!" Technus screamed as he exploded into ash and dust.

"Finally!" Danny fell to the floor and passed out.

Danny woke up two hours later and sat up, "I need to find a way to use my new weapons without killing myself at the same time." Ace was curled up next to him sleeping. "Good work!" He picked the small dog up and got to his feet. The chain whip glowed and flew into the air. It wrapped around his arm and stopped glowing. Danny sighed and flew out of the dungeon. The sun was just beginning to rise and he could here the creatures of the night rushing to the protective shadows. "Another day down." He walked to his bike and place Ace into the saddlebag. He stretched his arms and legs. He got on his bike and started it up, "I'll hit the Eastern District next."

Vlad gave Walker a hard stare as the tall ghost walked up to his desk. "Technus failed?" The ghost nodded and Vlad drummed his fingers on his desk. "Do any of you know how hard it was to track down your bodies? Too raise them and turn you all into vampires."

"Why do I waste my time on you?" Walker winced a little as Vlad's darker voice talked to him. Even the ghost warden was disturbed by Vlad's new personality.

"How did Danny take to the images of what was happening to Sam?" Vlad's normal voice had returned.

"The screen broke down. He didn't see a thing."

"Technology failed around Technus?" Vlad rubbed his chin and stood up, "Something more is going on here." He walked over to the large window that over looked his city. They were tinted to keep the sun from harming him. "At this rate the boy will be ready to launch his attack long before I am ready." Walker stepped back as both of Vlad's voices argued to one another. Suddenly, Vlad nodded, "Yes! Of course." He turned to Walker, "Tonight when the ghost boy continues his hunt, I will have a special surprise for him."
