Chev woke up in a damp, makeshift hospital held by the Triads. While he was half awake, he saw the doctors performing an operation on him. The doctors cut open his chest and removed his heart out of its place and replaced it with an artificial heart. In that room there was also Johnny Vang Art Hsu who watched the operation, and he was the one who had Chelios‟ heart. Sometime later he woke up and tried to get out of that place. As he did so, some Triad underlings spotted him and started a gunfight. After some shooting and killing, he then interrogated a survived thug and learned about his heart‟s whereabouts. He snatched a car and called Doctor Miles Dwight Yoakam to tell him about what was going on. Having learned his situation from doc miles, Chev rushed on a pursuit to Jonny Vang. The pursuit took place in an entire suburb down in LA. Many incidents occurred upon Chev Chelios during the run.

After the gunfight, he found himself surrounded by the fuzz and he fought the whole squad and stole one police car to continue his pursuit on Jonny. Soon, he learned Jonny ‟s whereabouts from a stripper he hooked up. As he was still chase by the police, he was saved and given a ride by Venus Efren Ramirez, a twin brother of his late acquaintance, Kaylo. Venus suggested that Chev should try to look for Jonny at a horse track. When they got there, Chev‟s condition was getting worse, so he called Doc Miles. The doctor told him to keep himself electrify, or else the artificial heart will stop working, and one easiest way was to get a friction to produce a static electricity to the internal battery. So then, a shocking incident happened. Chev and Eve were having sex in the middle of the race track, but suddenly Chev saw Jonny in the audience seat and chased after him, leaving Eve butt naked alone in the track. While chasing after Jonny and being pursuit by the security, Chev crossed path a Triad boss named Don Kim Keone Young. Through the mafia boss, Chev learned the purpose behind his agony and excruciating experience for losing his heart . It was to be transplanted to the Triad‟s Godfather named Poon Dong David Carradine. In short, Chev killed Don Kim and his henchmen, because he was about to bring Chev back to Poon Dong. When Chev spotted Jonny, he ran after him and they fought in a power plant site. Chev discovered that his heart was not in Jonny‟s box, and via cellphone, Doc Miles informed that 6 Chev‟s heart had already been transplanted into Poon Dong, and he said he would locate Poon Dong to retrieve Chev‟s heart. Jonny was shot by Chico as he was being interrogated, and Chev himself was knocked unconscious and dragged behind a speedboat to an island where El Huron awaited. El Huron held a grudge against Chev Chelios for him, in fact, is Alex and Ricky Verona‟s brother, both of whom was murdered by Chelios in the first movie. However, Ricky Verona‟s head was possibly enough to be kept alive because El Huron wanted Ricky to witness him killing Chev Chelios. Suddenly, Venus, Ria and a gang of gunfighters showed up and started to make a mess. After some strenuous fight, Chev‟s heart was starting to run slow. So, he climbed up a telephone pole and grabbed a pair of high voltage wires and got blasted away and got burnt. While he ‟s on fire, he killed El Huron. In the end part of the movie, Doc Miles was able to retrieve Chev‟s heart and tried to put it back in. However, Chev suffered from a fatal burn all over his body.
