Devil on the streets

Asmodeus left Maria's work place.He had to clear his head after everything he just heard.

Maria never had an easy life,she never knew who her family were.Asmodeus was starting to feel reluctant but he tried to brush it off.If he left her, Lucifer and Satan would make her their play thing.Job from biblical texts was a perfect example of what happened to people who Lucifer and Satan combined to tempt.

Asmodeus entered a busy crowd and was peacefully passing through when someone tried to pickpocket him.He froze,who the hell tried to rob the Devil.

He craned his neck for that idiot.He spotted a teenage girl searching her pockets.She was looking for a wallet she just stole which had miraculously returned to Asmodeus.He let out a sigh.She was just a child in the game of evil.He could let her go or show her how it's done.He smiled diabolically and approached that unsuspecting lady.

Diana,the queen of pickpockets was confused about what had just happened.She was sure she had robbed that foolish rich dude,who she passed by in the crowd but she couldn't find it.She was suddenly alerted by a domineering figure that appeared before her.She looked up to see the man she just stole from.Her heart skipped a beat but influenced by her rushing adrenaline she pulled out a pocket knife and attempted to stab him.

Asmodeus was shocked to find out how dumb this teenager was.She tried to steal from him and now she tried to kill him,as if it was possible.He grabbed her hand before it could reach him and snapped her wrist.She tried to scream but he silenced her with just one finger on her lips.She found herself unable to speak.

Diana was terrified,who the hell was this guy.She stared at him as he had a dead serious facial expression.Was he going to kill her infront of everyone who were not even looking their direction.

Asmodeus let the thief go, ceasing her knife."You are one great failure for a street kid",he said observing the girl who was now sobering over her twisted wrist.

She looked up suddenly and raved,"You have no idea who you just messed with.Am queen of these streets and my gangs kill rich spoilt brats like you.Whatever you do to me they will pay you back tenfold".

Damn!!!, Diana was a very good lier, Asmodeus almost started to care about all the nonsense she was saying.She had no gangs,she had never killed anyone and she was definitely afraid of Asmo.He walked up to her and spoke,"Listen to me little girl,am going to say this only once.How can you claim you're queen when you haven't met your king?.Watch and learn".

What the hell was this dude talking about.Diana was reading all signs of crazy from this guy."What can you of all people do",she asked acting like she was dying to know.

Asmo walked into the crowd and returned a minute later.She didn't see him do a thing and his pockets looked empty.He started to pull out wallets from what seemed to be flat empty pockets.Almost simultaneously the crowd broke into a frenzy.They all started fighting each other claiming that their wallets had been stolen.They blamed the closest person to them and a public brawl began.

Meanwhile at a place just a stone throw away,Asmo had finally emptied his pocket.Diana was in shock,there was a heap of wallets on the ground.She stared speechlessly at Asmo.She bowed before him that instant.He smiled and said,"Finally you get it, keep the wallets and be more careful next time".He strolled away as Diana beheld the wallets on the ground with the potential of containing so much wealth.She started to search them one by one.

She got hit by a greater bombshell.They were all empty.Asmo had taken all the money in them.She was in no state of mind to hold it together.She panicked and looked for her own wallet.

Oh,she found the wallet but not the money.Her eyes slowly started tearing up.She got humbled by the king and robbed as well.She finally broke down crying.Why!!!😭😭😭.Asmodeus was long gone by then and he taught her a valuable lesson never to meddle with the Devil ever again.It wasn't her fault though,how was she supposed to know she had met the king of hell.

Asmo was still on the road a while later.He knew he might have gone too extreme with that girl but she needed to be taught a lesson.He discovered a motel across the street.He approached it and entered.He saw a line but walked to the front desk of the receiptionist.No one in the line could speak.He was a pure beauty to behold.

The man who's turn it was before Asmo popped up was begging the receiptionist.His money was insufficient to get a room.Asmodeus paid for him without a thought just so he could take his sad pathetic sight away from him.The man turned to thank him,"God bless you".

Asmodeus cringed and cut in sharply,"Take God out of this!!!".The man was clueless,why was this kind Samaritan was freaking out at the mention of God,"Ok,thanks then".

Asmodeus left without acknowledging the correction he made and marched gracefully out of the motel.What was he doing here anyway?.He could have any hotel in the world.He thought of a place to reappear at and opened his eyes in the loud and lively city of Los Angeles.

Ironic right,the Devil just entered the City of Angels.
