Later, when GUTS were returning back to base, they found a woman who had fainted on the road. Munakata detected a bite at the woman's neck as they brought her to the base.
As told by Horii, she was still alive but her body temperature was similar to a corpse's. The woman awoke that, growing fangs and her face turned pale; She knocked out two TPC personnel and attacked Commander Iruma attempting to turn her. Before the vampire could bite her, Munakata arrived in time and forced her to retreat from the Dive Hangar with the vampire diving into the sea. After the hair sample from the disappearence case was scanned it was revealed to be a hair of a South African Vampire bat.
