Companion Demon

Chapter 2

"When I popped off, then girl gave me just a little bit of lockjaw ... I hummed."

I took a sip of my strawberry milkshake while continuing to shake my head to the beat of the music.

"I got nothing else that I can withdraw."

I turned around a corner and found myself face to face with two strangers in a dark alley. They smiled at me with disgusting yellow teeth and exchanged a perverse look. I huffed and gently put my milkshake on the floor. I lowered the volume of the music slightly so I could hear what they were saying to me.

"Hey beautiful. What are you doing alone late at night? We shouldn't let such a beautiful girl walk around alone that late. It's dangerous."

His sidekick laughed with a heavy laugh that attacked my ears.

Lalalala, lalala

"It's very dangerous outside for a woman. You're lucky you bumped into us."

He put his hand on my shoulder. My gaze darkened.

"Withdraw your hand."

The strangers laughed as my voice was cold as stone. Poor little ones, why did people tend not to take me seriously? It didn't matter what I was wearing. Yet today I had put on jeans and a leather jacket. I was seeming pretty "mean".

"I'm counting to three. If you don't remove your hand and apologize for touching me without my consent I'll forcefully make you understand your mistake."

They laughed even more. I was starting to get irritated. I had no patience. It was for them that I was saying it after all. He had better take his hand off me. I was used to much more numerous and imposing opponents.The one who had his hand on my shoulder decided to bring it down to my buttocks. I sighed. They left me no choice.

"One..."

He grabbed my buttocks with full hand and I had to take it upon myself to stay calm. I shouldn't kill them either. I was not a murderer.

"Two...

- Look at her all serious suddenly.

-Three."

I grabbed the hand on my backside and twisted it at an inhuman angle which made the holder scream his lungs out. I would have stopped there if his friend hadn't had the bad idea to run to his defense. He rushed forward ready to punch me in the face but I avoided his weight with no problem.

"Seriously? Why are you aiming for the forehead?"

I let go of my prey, which collapsed on the ground, holding his wrist. I had to admit that I had not gone dead hand. I might have broken it. I was going to have to apologize. I walked towards the second one who still hadn't understood that he had no chance. He looked like a child, he was so naive. Somehow I felt sorry for him. He had just been in the wrong place at the wrong time. No one dared to attack me in that alley since I had ... Let's say I made a massacre. These two couldn't have been from around here.

"If you want to hit someone then aim for the nose."

I accompanied my words with a demonstration and the stranger bended over, groaning in pain. I grabbed him by the shoulder and forced him to stand up.

"Or the throat."

Once again I accompanied my words with examples and the stranger now had no more breath left to cry out. He fell on his knees and began to cough.

"Don't make a fuss about it I haven't hit so hard ... I scolded him."

The one with the broken wrist took the opportunity to attack me from behind. I grabbed his arm with my back to him and clicked my tongue.
