Robert E. O. Speedwagon and his Foundation discovered a Mexican pyramid containing various Stone Masks and a man encased in a stone column (Santana). Fearing the worst, Speedwagon contacts Straizo to come to Mexico and help destroy the masks and the mysterious figure before she awakens. However, Straizo suddenly kills Speedwagon's accomplices and then gravely wounds Speedwagon himself. Succumbing to the youth and energy bestowed by the Stone Mask, Straizo uses the spilled blood to activate the mask and transforms into a vampire, declaring his intention to destroy all who know about the masks.
