" Let's see if you will still have the energy to talk after I blow your brains out"
With that he pressed the trigger and placed a bullet between Leviathan's eyes.
Before Leviathan could process what just happened he felt the length of a dagger in his skull.
The knife penetrated and came out on his chin but his attackers did not seem satisfied yet.
They slit his throat and left him for the dead. Even for a demon he could not remain conscious after so much damage.
The world around him turned dark and he drowned in the darkness. Maybe he should have just fought them once and for all.
He had underestimated the limitation Lucifer had set on his powers.
Now more than ever Leviathan was sure that they would not live to see another day.
He felt flames burning in him and he was possessed by a new strength. His eyes glowed red and his claws elongated.
He pulled the knife out of his skull and the wound healed immediately.
His attackers were already out of sight. He could tell that they had not gone very far since he had been unconscious for only a few minutes.
Leviathan decided to trail them using his sensory organs. He closed his eyes and listened carefully. He could feel some few heart beats from a far.
He retracted his claws and his eyes stopped glowing and turned dark. His fangs were already aching to have some bite.
His pace was slow as he was in no hurry to reach to them. He passed near a tool store forced his way in and took with him a big hammer.
He walked while pulling it along the ground. It made a lot of noise as the metal grinded against the ground.
He changed his mind and carried it on his shoulders. The heartbeat was now coming from a close proximity.
He could even feel their breathing. He kept walking till he could hear them talk. A woman's voice could also be heard.
Whatever they were doing to the girl was none of his business but he was afraid the girl might also have to die.
He could finally see them. They were with a girl and he guessed they were going to molest her.
Her blouse and brassiere had been torn apart and she lay on the ground trying to fight back but it was all futile.
Finally the goons overpowered her and pinned her hands to the ground.
The leader unbuckled his belt but was startled by the loud banging of an hammer.
Leviathan had hit the hammer hard against the ground. He lifted it and dropped it again.
The goons did not recognize Leviathan and even if they did feel like he looked familiar they could never imagine that he was the same man the had killed ( or they thought they had killed)
The leader fixed his belt and glared daggers at Leviathan. " Why are you walking around with a hammer. Get lost before I decide to end your life" he threatened.
Leviathan kept on walking towards them. He held the knife he had pulled out of his skull on his hand and the hammer on the other.
" I want your head" he said calmly. The gang leader let out a sinister laughter and ordered his boys to take care of Leviathan.
Leviathan let go of his hammer and met them head on. He placed a uppercut on the chin of the first guy and knocked all the wind out of him.
Before the guy could even hit the ground he followed a heavy punch to the solar plexus.
He descended on the guy and bore a hole on his skull with the dagger.
The other guys hesitated after they saw what happened to their friend but Leviathan did not let them even take a breath.
He moved forward and directed the knife to the ribs of his second victim. It penetrated to the heart and his second victim was dead before hitting the ground.
He slit the throat of the third guy and moved fast until all the guys lay on pools of their own blood.
They lay with cuts on their throats, stabs or open bellies and holes on their skulls.
Leviathan was left facing the leader who was on the verge of peeing on his pants.
Never in his life had he seen so much blood especially of people he knew. He wanted to run but he felt like he had been frozen in his spot.
" What do you want man I swear I will give it to you " he said with a trembling voice.
" Your head. Will you give it to me?" Leviathan asked with a wide smile.
" Please I beg of you. Ask for anything but just spare my life" the goon pleaded.
A wicked smirk formed across leviathan's face. " Fine" he said and turned his back to the goon.
The crook saw this as the perfect opportunity to get rid of the threat in front of him.
He took out his piece and went for the head shot. Had he known that this was a creature of darkness he would have repented and prayed for a painless death.
Unfortunately for him, there was nothing the son of Earth hadn't predicted.
With just his thoughts the whole thing stopped functioning. The goon was puzzled when he pulled the trigger and nothing happened.
" You lied to me. You tried to kill me. Sorry to inform you that you are already dead" Leviathan said calmly.
The crook began to shake in fear. " Who are you and what do you want from me?" he asked.
" The ring" Leviathan said while emitting a dark cold aura. " I want the ring you took from me"
The guy was with realisation and adrenaline filled his blood.
He could now picture him clearly. He was the same guy they had killed a few minutes ago.
If he had come back from the dead then there was nothing he could not possibly do.
If it was really him who had revived then it was futile trying to fight him.
He took the ring from his pocket and fell to his knees as he offered it to Leviathan.
" Here is the ring. Take it and leave me alone. I promise never to bother you again" he begged.
Leviathan took the ring and wore it around his finger. He turned back and walked towards the hammer.
He held the hammer in his hand and headed towards where the goon knelt.
" What else do you want I have already given back your property?" he asked fearfully.
" I said it once and I will say it again. I want your head" Leviathan remained emotionless.
He kicked the guy on the head and he fell to the ground.
He lifted the hammer up high and swung it with all his strength.
It landed on the goons head and crushed it into a white sauce mixed with red. There was no trace of the guy's head except for the spilled brains.
" What kind of a creature are you?" he heard a feminine voice ask. Leviathan turned around and saw the girl the goons were trying to molest.
' A demon ' he answered in his head. " Why do you care?" he asked. " What kind of a creature I am doesn't concern you"
" You are a monster. You killed them in cold blood just because of a silly ring?" she asked.
Leviathan felt his anger rise. How dare a mere mortal call his memories silly.
" It wasn't just a ring it was the only thing my mother left me" he said as he recalled what his father had told him.
He held the knife in his hands and walked towards the girl. She had successful purchased a ticket to Nirvana when she opened her mouth to insult him.
" Please don't do anything to me. I will do everything you ask of me" she pleaded.
Leviathan stared at her frightened eyes. He could feel the fear in her pulse.
It reminded him of Diana and all the girls he was going to kill plus the guilt he would feel.
He looked at the girl in front of him and wondered if she could be a perfect meal for him.
" What is your name?" He asked in a commanding tone. " Aniella" she answered with trembling lips.
" Now Aniella tell me are you willing to do anything so that I may not kill you?" he asked. The girl was silent for a while before nodding.
" I will tell you what. Go home and forget everything you saw happen or go around telling it to everyone and get yourself killed" he said.
" Am I free now?" she asked.
" Hey! Not so fast"
