Vampires 1

Two years had passed quickly since the day Miyamoto Hideyoshi gave the Katana to Paul. After receiving the Katana, Paul continued training every day. He trained to increase his physical strength and martial arts skills.

Miyamoto Hideyoshi told Paul that training to increase physical strength was useless. To fight against vampires, they needed endurance and agility. After all, a vampire was several times stronger than an average human.

But Paul knew that even if it was not helpful, it was better than doing nothing. Moreover, he had always trained in his agility and endurance. Due to Miyamoto Hideyoshi's advanced age, Paul was already much more agile than his master.

In these two years of training, Paul had already learned everything that Miyamoto Hideyoshi had to teach. However, he was not as good as his master because he lacked experience. The reason he was not called a samurai master was due to his lack of experience.

Miyamoto Hideyoshi was happy that Paul had already learned everything he could teach him. He was worried that the government might think about revoking the samurais' license and funding due to the lack of vampires appearing. But he was happy that no vampires had appeared to attack them.

Miyamoto Hideyoshi had enough money saved up to retire, and Paul was still young and strong enough to find a job if they could no longer be samurais. But when Miyamoto Hideyoshi thought about this, he received worrying news.

The police told him that twelve people were found dead a few days ago in the city of Fujinomiya. They all had the same problem - their blood had been completely drained before their death.

One of these people was the samurai who were taking care of Fujinomiya. This meant that these vampires were cruel and careful, the worst kind of enemy to face. To make Miyamoto Hideyoshi even more worried, the police thought that there might be more than one vampire.

If this were true, then it would be difficult for Miyamoto Hideyoshi and Paul to survive. A vampire was hard to deal with; they needed several policemen to distract the two vampires so that Miyamoto Hideyoshi could cut off their heads.

And that was because the vampires were arrogant and thought that no human could kill them. If these vampires were careful, Miyamoto Hideyoshi might not have had a chance to kill the vampires again before being killed.

"Paul, we have a big problem. Vampires may be coming to Fuji. They may go to another city as well, but as samurais, we have to be prepared to protect the people," said Miyamoto Hideyoshi.

"I know, master. That's why I've been training for the past few years," said Paul.

"That's right. It'll be tough if there's more than one vampire. They seem to be careful. Perhaps the death of the samurai in Fujinomiya was no coincidence. Maybe the vampires decided to kill him first for safety," said Miyamoto Hideyoshi.

"If that's true, we can prepare before their arrival," said Paul, holding his head in great pain.

"What are you thinking?" said Miyamoto Hideyoshi.

"Master, you said that the vampires may have hunted the samurai in the other city, or it may have been a coincidence. If the vampires want to hunt normal people, we can't do anything to stop them, but if they want to hunt us, we can kill them before they hurt more people," said Paul.

"I don't know how I know this, but it seems that vampires have very sensitive senses. They can't control themselves when they smell blood. We can ask the police to get some bags of blood from the hospital, and we can set up an ambush in the warehouse," said Paul.

"I understand. If the vampires aren't after us, it's our duty to lure them, and if they already want to kill us, we'll prepare beforehand. I like it. Let's try your plan, but know that we may die if we do this," said Miyamoto Hideyoshi.

"It's better than just waiting for the vampires to attack," said Paul.

Miyamoto Hideyoshi decided to follow Paul's plan. They had a warehouse in the mountains that wasn't very big, was abandoned, and had no windows. It was 5 meters wide, and Paul thought he could cover that distance with his katana.

The warehouse was 3 meters tall with wood on the ceiling, making it difficult for vampires to jump over. Miyamoto Hideyoshi and Paul placed several fuel drums in the corners and had lighters that only needed to be opened to the light.

Miyamoto Hideyoshi and Paul managed to get 5 bags full of blood from the hospital and opened them, pouring the blood on the ground behind them. If the vampire that attacked the city was smart, they would flee upon seeing the warehouse with the smell of gasoline.

But as Miyamoto Hideyoshi said, vampires were arrogant. Soon the vampires arrived in the city, chasing after the samurais to kill them first.

They knew the story of how some samurais managed to kill vampires in Japan. Moreover, they had an agreement with the Yakuza, who did not like samurais, so they killed the samurais first and then some people from the city.

As the vampires moved through the mountain to search for the samurais, they smelled a strong scent of blood in a warehouse. They quickly thought they were lucky, but they also smelled gasoline and knew they were fast enough to escape if something happened.

Soon, they arrived at the warehouse and were surprised to see two men with katanas in their hands, one behind the other. They knew they were the samurais they were looking for because of the katanas.

Miyamoto Hideyoshi and Paul were shocked when they saw the vampires. It was much worse than Miyamoto Hideyoshi expected, as there were five vampires who came after them. As Paul said, if they waited to be attacked, they would just die without doing anything.

"Well, look at that. It seems they've set up a trap for us. You're just prey to us. After killing a few vampires, do you think worms like you can set up a trap for us?" said one of the vampires angrily.

"Calm down, Matt. They're Japanese like me. They won't understand your English. Let me talk to them before we kill them," said one of the vampires, looking at the samurais like a cat looks at a mouse.

"I apologize for my friend's rudeness. Let me introduce ourselves to you. I am Haruto, and my partner here is Yuki. The one who spoke to you before is Matt, and his friend is Anna. My other friend from the Yakuza is named Akemi," said Haruto, seeming like he was talking to friends.
