While John and the Ninja fight their way through the remaining Asian Mafia Grunts, Steve revives Arashikage as a zombie to go after the Ninja and John Kingston.

Two Grunts see them and pursue them on motorbikes, but the Ninja takes them both out.

The two later come across a roadblock set up by two Asian Mafia Grunts, but the Ninja kills both of them and they are able to go on ahead. The two reach the airport, but find that it's being guarded by Asian Mafia Grunts. The two fight their way through the Grunts but are soon confronted by Steve.
