I leaned back at the wall of a dingy alley way, its almost 3 month after everything that happened. I already steel myself for it. I need to know what exactly happened that day, the memories after I died, the last piece of puzzle. Chimera sat obediently next to me, her eyes watched the entry way of the alley diligently.

"I'm sorry girl" I say and the Chimera tilted her head towards me "I drag you in this, I'm sorry if my action might make you uncomfortable"

She bark softly towards me and nudged her head into my leg. Then her demeanor changed when 2 boys and 1 girl began to walk into the alley towards me. They are armed and ready to fight.

"Hey" I greeted casually.

One of them quickly pulled their weapon and pointed it at me.

"I just want to talk" I said again, unfazed.

"I don't talk with you" he hissed.

"Where's Luke? I need to talk to him" I said again, voice still calm.

"You almost killed him!" the girl barked "I don't have to answer to you"

"Well, he did killed my friend and almost kill me in process" I shrugged "It was a justified self defense"

They stared at me as if I grew two head. 

"Oh come one, I hate to do this guys" I sighed "We know where this will lead to"

"Your dead body on the ground?" one of the boy spat

"Dead body yes, but not mine" I grinned "Also two dead bodies and maybe an arm or leg or two, depend on how fast I can chop them"

"We outnumbered you, jerk" the girl said smugly.

"Oh, really?" I said clearly amused "Ah, did they never upgraded their information on me? I can take 20 of you and I still can emerge as the winner"

Chimera barked loudly at my side, baring her teeth, ready to rip them.

"Is that? A small dog?" and they burst into laughter "Is that thing going to maul my heel?"

"Ah, your information is really outdated" I hummed "Either that, or you new batch of stupid new recruit" I mumbled "Are they really don't do any screening when recruiting? Damn, they are desperate"

 I whistled sharply and Chimera slowly turned into her true form, stood menacingly behind me. Her snake head moved and stopped right beside me.

"I asked one more time" I said "Where's Luke?"

They spat at me, I sighed and took step back.

"Then I have no other choices"

I snapped my finger and a slab of black stone blocked their only mean of escape. A block of the stone appeared behind me as I took a seat on it, I leaned back, and rested my left elbow and rested my head on the palm of my hand.

"Which one of you want die? and which one of you want to lost two limbs and an eye, but still alive to deliver my message to Luke"

I only laughed when their expression turned into surprised and fear. I leaned forward and whistle again. In a blink of an eye, the Chimera launched herself and bite into a guy, she tore his left arm and swallowed it. The other two screamed as they ran towards the towering black stone, banging on it, hoping someone will save them.

I leaned back again this time I crossed my right leg as I watched one of them on the ground bleeding to death. I can sense his life force slowly leaving his body

"Do you want to eat him?" I asked Chimera who sniffed the boy body and then began to spit acid the body, melting it the instant acid made contact on the body "Yeah, figure. He probably taste bad and can give you stomachache"
