Equestrian Devil Hunter
Demon in Human Clothing
Load Full StoryNext ChapterThe streets are cold in the dead of the night.....most of the time. Here in the big city of Manehattan, the streets are always busy. From the screams of an angry girl who got her heart broken to a taxi driver who got rear ended. The big city is full of loud and crazy things....But tonight things are gonna get a little louder.
"You're such a tease baby."
In a back alleyway in the darker part of town, a mistress of the night and her client was finishing a private meeting.
"Sorry, but what you had was only for an hour. Maybe next time hon?" She teased with a sly smirk as she turned and walked away.
Nights like these were perfect for a girl like her. Young men walking home drunk and miserable were the perfect targets. But then again women weren't hard to come by either. Especially in this city where broken dreams and high expectation run rampant.
"Ugh, that cheap bastard. It's a wonder why I don't tear his balls off!"
Unfortunately for her.....the night has a few plans for her.
"So explain to me again what this thing is?" A man asked as he turned a corner.
The man was young in his early twenties. He wore a stylish black and red coat that clung to his red zip-up hoodie/vest. Underneath he wore a pair of dark jeans with steel toed boots. His right arm had a cast covering it while he held a cellphone in his left. Currently, he was on the phone with his co-workers.
"This one's a real gentleman. He only attacks young women, mostly virgins, but he's splurged a bit. Recently over thirteen cases of brutal slaughters have happened in this city."
"And let me guess, there all women?" He asked with an annoyed sigh.
"Don't be a smart-ass, Nero." The person on the other side said before getting cut off by screaming.
"I'll call you back." Nero said before throwing his phone away and running towards the screams.
After running a few blocks Nero felt something strange. He looked down an alleyway to his left and smelt something rotten.
"Sulfur.....looks like my friend came out to play."
Nero pulled out his trusty revolver, The Blue Rose. A custom Magnum revolver that fires two rounds that move at least 2000 Feet Per Second. This pistol has the power to puncture through solid steel in a single shot.
As he went further into the darkness the sounds of bones crunching and the smell of blood were overwhelming. After turning a corner Nero found the source of the smell.
A woman around the same age as himself was being torn apart. She was ripped open like a present with her insides painting the walls in a thick bloody mess. In the center of this carnage was a demon. Standing at seven foot with a ghoulish looking face with eerie yellow eyes and jagged sharp teeth covered in blood.
"Sorry, did I interrupt your dinner?" Nero asked as he pointed his pistol at the monster.
It stared at him for a moment before dropping a few lumps of meat it was chewing on. Now with a full view, Nero felt his blood begin to boil and his body get stiff.
"Human filth! I smell my brothers on that filthy body of yours!" The demon screeched as Nero twirled his pistol in his hand.
"Yeah well......There the one's who started it." He exclaimed in a cocky tone as the monster snarled.
"FOOL! I am a ruler of darkness!! Human Filth such as you cannot slay those such as me!" The demon exclaimed as it scraped its claws against the walls.
"That so? Well then let's see if this ugly piece of shit in front of me has more bite than his bark!" Nero shouted as the beast charged towards him.
Nero jumped back to get some distance and took a few shots at the demon. It quickly leapt towards a wall where it used its claws to keep from falling. Before Nero could take another shot the demon leapt towards him and knocked him into a wall before landing in front of him.
The demon growled as it slowly walked towards him with a menacing glare. Nero groaned and watched his opponent come closer to him. Suddenly the demon tried to slash Nero with one of its claws, however, before it could get close Nero reached over and threw a trash can at him. Then Nero lifted his gun and shot through the trash can and into the demon.
The demon howled in pain as it clutched its bloody body. Nero put his pistol away before sprinting towards the beast before drop kicking it in the stomach with enough force to send it flying into a wall.
"DAMN HUMAN FILTH!" The Demon shouted as it coughed up blood.
"I think I'm gonna cry." Nero said mockingly as he cracked his neck.
"I AM THE RULER OF DARKNESS! A BRINGER OF DEATH! I WILL NOT BE KILLED BY HUMAN FILTH!" The demon shouted as its body began to shift and change into something truly sinister.
Nero frowned as he holstered his weapon and reached behind his back. However, before Nero could grab his weapon the beast vanished in the blink of an eye. Nero quickly scanned his surroundings but it was too late. The beast reappeared underneath Nero through shadow and bit into his right arm.
"NOW PERISH HUMAN SCUM!" The demon shouted as it used it's full force to try and take Nero's arm off.
Suddenly the demon realized that no matter how much he tried it couldn't tear Nero's arm off. Nero chuckled as he pulled a gigantic blade off his back.
His sword, also known as the Red Queen, is another custom weapon that Nero built himself. The blade was massive almost about the same length as Nero himself. It was also was customized with a special motor system that makes it unusable to anyone other than Nero.
Suddenly the sound of a motorcycle engine blared through the alleyway. This caused the demon to release Nero's arm and back away in fear Meanwhile Nero lifted his arm and saw that his cast had been destroyed.
"W-What are you!? You aren't human!"
Nero scoffed as he ripped off the remains of his cast.
"Jeez, whats with all the name calling? First, it's scum, then it's trash, and now your saying I'm not even human. What the heck do you want from me? Well, I guess it doesn't matter because, in the end, I'm none of those things."
The demon watched in horror as it saw Nero's demonic arm as it glowed an eerie blue light that filled the dark alleyway.
"W-WAIT! I KNOW THAT STINK! THE STINK OF THE TRAITOR!" The demon exclaimed as Nero throttled his Red Queen.
Suddenly the blade began to glow bright red as its temperature got hotter and hotter. Nero lifted his weapon off the ground as steam lifted off the blade.
"Seriously enough with the insults! I'm gonna make things pretty clear right now! The name's Nero and I'm a demon hunter."
Suddenly the beast charged towards Nero trying to take his head off. But before he could get the chance Nero swung his blade cleaving the demons body in half. There was blood splattered everywhere as the demons body squirmed on the ground. Nero tried to wipe some of the blood off but he knew that this wasn't gonna be easy to clean.
"Demon.....Hunter...."
Nero turned towards his opponent as it called out to him.
"Y-You may have slane me.......But I will not be.....The last! Demons.....Will come for you! Your.......Your-" The demon tried to say only to be cut short when Nero shot him.
"Yeah.....I don't give a damn."
Suddenly Nero heard what sounded like a cell phone and looked around only to find his phone he threw away earlier.
"Hello? Is this the Pizza guy?"
"Glad to know your alright Nero! What the hell did you hang up for!"
"Well, I found that friend you were talking about. Oh, and I handled him but not before he took one last person with him." Nero explained while looking at the remains of the girl.
Judging by her clothes she was a hooker. She probably never even saw this coming then again no one ever does. Nero did feel sorry for her but in the end, we all gotta die eventually.
"Great.....will try and clean up the mess."
"Sure and....One more thing." Nero said as he began to walk out of the alleyway.
"What?"
"I'm going on vacation." Nero said plainly as he put the phone on top of a trash can.
While he was walking away he could hear his friend shouting at him from over the phone. He chuckled a little as he walked down the street with a newspaper in his hands.
"So the cry baby became a princess huh? Now this I gotta see." Nero said as he tossed the paper.
On the front page was the picture of Equestria's newest Princess. Also known as the Princess of Friendship Twilight Sparkle.
