Hiro arrived at the apartment building and walked to the door. He wasn’t going to waste any time with this as he knocked on the door. “Excuse me!” Hiro called out. “I’m the mage who’s replying to your request about your house being haunted. The ghosts are exterminated so I’d like my pay!” Hiro yelled. It was the truth; the ghosts were long gone now, never to exist again.
“Ah? You better have some proof of that before I go back there,” the man at the other end of the door grunted with displeasure. It seemed he Hiro had woke him up. A perfect scenario, unsuspecting and dulled senses. “Do you even have any idea what time it-” the man was cut off opening the door as Hiro jumped forward at the man forcing the door open and tackling the monster. He looked like any other citizen. That’s usually what true monsters looked like on the outside, like regular people. Hiro let his flames burst from his body in as much glory as Hiro could force them to unleash as he placed a hand over the killer’s mouth to keep him from making too much noise and waking everyone else up. Hiro had his other hand tight around his client’s neck letting his flames do most of the work. “Burn away with your sins,” Hiro said through pointed teeth, giving his prey the glare of a predator.
The man looked back at Hiro with horror, flailing and trying to escape, probably like his victims tried to escape him to no avail. However Hiro was not a normal human, he was half devil and had physical strength that came with that curse. All the flailing did was cause the flames on Hiro’s hand to dig deeper into the man’s throat and quicken this whole ordeal.
In not too long, the man stopped moving and Hiro let go. He was dead. Hiro quickly thrust his claws into the man’s chest and pried the damned soul from his body before anything could happen to it. Hiro took the soul to his gaping maw and pushed it into his mouth, chewing and savoring the taste of the monsters sins before swallowing. As Hiro got up he looked back at the door and noticed a man on his rear in the doorway staring at Hiro in fear, horror and terror stricken across his face. Hiro forgot to close the door and was so wrapped up in his satanic instincts that he didn’t notice him, although Hiro didn’t care. His instincts as a devil took over and it angered Hiro now that he was coming to realize the whole thing. Killing the man didn’t bother the little devil-spawn at all. Hiro was bothered with the idea that he enjoyed the whole thing. It bothered him and made him sick that he was like his father for a brief moment, like that monster he just killed. A sadistic killer that derived pleasure from the death of his victims. It was wrong. Hiro knew it was wrong and that wasn’t how he felt but his instincts thought otherwise.
Hiro quickly grabbed the jewels he saw on the counter and jumped out the window, diminishing his flames once more to escape and avoid detection. The realization that someone saw him quickly kicking in that he needed to escape immediately and ran through the alleyway until he found a way into the sewers. He knew the sewers here well enough that there was an escape route there and quickly ran through the sewers, jewels in his hands and blood on them.
