In reality, I was worried about Johnny's capture, but not so worried that I thought I couldn't save him. Giving in to these guys demands wasn't going to do any good.
I popped an ice pill into my mouth and said, "Hold on. I need to take my dication." I grabbed Chad's cold coffee and drank so of it to swallow the pill.
"Oh, really? You're not intimidated? What if we gave you his finger?" Brad said. He ignored taking the pill.
"You could give his dick. It still wouldn't change the fact that it's already happened and there's nothing I can do about it," I said. A golden mouth appeared next to Brad and Thad.
'Does he actually have Johnny's finger?' I thought at the mouth.
"Yes," the golden mouth responded.
'Good,' I thought.
"That's where you're wrong," Brad said. "There is sothing you can do about it."

"And what is that?" I said.
"You can co with us. If you do, we'll release your guy," Brad said.
"I'm going to take option two," I said.
"What's option two?" Thad said.
"Here, let demonstrate," I said, raising my hands from the table and pointing them at Brad and Thad, the palms facing them.
Two spikes of blood burst out of my hands—one from each hand—and stabbed Brad and Thad in their hearts. I kept the spikes in for a few seconds to allow the ice properties to freeze their hearts solid, and then I pulled the blood back into my hands.
Brad and Thad collapsed onto the table. I knew this was only temporary. They were undead vampires. Technically, they didn't need to pump blood with their hearts. They could survive with hearts that didn't beat.
But since they were vampire cultivators simulating life in their bodies, it would take them a few seconds to adjust back to having lifeless hearts.
"Whoa!" I got up from the table and walked around it until I was behind both Brad and Thad. "Are you guys ok?" I said, loudly, making a big show of being concerned for their well being.
I placed my hands on the backs of their heads casually and shot spikes into their brains, not only stabbing their brains, but freezing them as well. Depending on how far they were in their cultivation, that may or may not kill them, but they probably weren't far enough.
And even if it didn't kill them, having frozen brains would make them useless for at least a couple hours. I patted brad's jacket looking for sothing and ca up with a small box. I put it in my inside jacket pocket.
"Oh no! Soone call an ambulance! These two n have collapsed! I'm going to go call 911!" I ran towards the door and signaled for Victoria and Chad to follow. They followed out of the door after a few seconds.
Once we were outside, we walked back to the motel. I pulled out my sword and the small box I got off Brad's body. I opened the box and sure enough, a finger was inside it. Looked like his pinky.
I took the sword and made a small incision on the tip of the finger. Then, I took the finger in my hand, closed my hand around it, and made the blood in my hand freeze. I held the hand like that for thirty seconds before unfreezing my hand.
I figured if I kept the finger cold, I might be able to reattach it. I put the finger back in the box which I placed back in my jacket pocket. I concentrated with my sword and got a hit on Johnny's location using Blood Sense.
As long as I had taken so of soone's blood onto the sword, I could sense the location of all of their blood, which usually included their body. This allowed to track people's locations.
"Ok, I know where he is," I said. "Let's go."
We went outside. I grabbed onto Midas with one arm and Victoria with the other, while Victoria grabbed onto Chad. Then we flew.
"Who is this Johnny guy to you?" Victoria said.
"He's my adoptive father and an Italian cri boss. He raised since I was 15, when my dad died." I said.
"Oh," Victoria said, not sure how to react to all of that information at once. "Well then we better get him."
"That's the plan", I said.
We flew for only a few minutes. Just long enough to get on the other side of town. Ti was of the essence to rescue Johnny, but this was dayti and Victoria only had a limited amount of ti she could spend in the sun before she died.
I, on the other hand, was fine, because I had Shikasa's Blessing of the Day active, which allowed to be in the sun with no negative side effects. We touched down outside a boarded up abandoned building.
I figured they probably weren't keeping Johnny in the front room, so we went around the back. I saw a window where so of the boards had been removed.
Making sure to stay away from that window to avoid being seen, I walked back around the side of the building so I was facing a wall perpendicular to the window with missing boards.
My thought was that maybe Johnny was in the room just beyond the window with missing boards. So we would break into that room through the side wall.
I placed my hands against the wall and gathered condensed Vi into them. I figured that maybe Johnny was on the other side of this wall. If I blew it up, he may get buried under debris, but Johnny was a tough guy, he could handle a little debris.
I released the Vi all at once. The wall exploded inwards. I walked through the hole but the inside was obscured by the massive dust cloud I'd created. I just started walking forward with my hands in front of until I ran into sothing.
