The Prince of Darkness rode silently in the elevator beside his demon. On the outside he was calm. On the inside he was cauldron of rage. They were heading out to deliver punishment. Someone had hurt his daughter. No one hurt his daughter and lived to tell about it.

The elevator door opened and there were police milling about in the club. Detective Decker rushed over to him. "There you are." She placed her hands on her hips.

Lucifer looked down at her. He really didn't have anything to say. He knew she would try to stop him. "Yes. Can I help you, Detective?" He said calmly.

"What happened here? We got calls that there was a shooting with one possible injury."

He hated to lie to her. He wasn't going to lie. But he also didn't want her to talk him out of his task. "Yes, there was a shooting. Someone was hurt. But they are being taken of care of. Now if you'll excuse me. I have matters to attend to." He skirted by her and headed to the entrance.

"Wait. Lucifer wait." Chloe shouted after him. "Where are you going?"

The Devil sighed heavily. "I just told you. I have matters to attend to." He kept walking to the entrance.

"Lucifer." She shouted.

He stopped again. He was growing irritated. He needed to get out of here. Someone was in dire need of severe punishment. "What?" He growled.

She shrinked back a bit at his tone. "We need to know what happened here."

Lucifer was seething. He was struggling to maintain his calm outer appearance. He stopped and looked at the detective. "There was a shooting." He said quickly. He continued to the exit.

"Wait." She called.

"Detective Decker." Another officer called to her. She turned her attention away from Lucifer. He took that as an opportunity to slip out the door and to his car. Maze was waiting in the passenger seat.

The black Corvette raced through the streets of L.A. His darks eyes looking straight ahead. He was determined to kill the person who had hurt his daughter. They pulled up to a rundown house. Broken toys and trash were strewn about in the yard. He could hear dogs barking and people shouting.

"Are you sure this is the right place, Maze?" He asked the demon.

"Positive."

"Well, okay then." He said heading to the door. He kicked it in and stormed into the living room.

A thin man was sitting half naked on the couch. A woman was lying next to him. Their eyes widened with fear as he walked into the room. The man got to his feet. "Who the hell are you?"

Lucifer smiled. But it wasn't friendly. It was wicked and full of rage. He stepped towards the young man. He eyed a gun sitting on the coffee table. "Were you at my club tonight?" He used his mind to search for the truth.

The man shifted uneasily. He looked away. But refused to answer.

Lucifer growled. "I will ask again. And you are going to answer. "Were you at my club tonight?"

The man looked at him. "Yes." His voice was laced with fear.

"And did you shoot my daughter?"

The man started to cry. "I am so sorry."

"Oh you have no idea." Lucifer grabbed the man by his shoulder and threw him across the room. He hit the wall with such force it cracked. The young man lie in a heap not moving.

"HEY!" He heard a familiar voice coming from the hallway. Kevin Mannon walked into the room. "What the hell are you doing here?"

"Someone hurt my daughter."

Kevin looked over at the young man. "You hurt my son. You killed my brother." He said shakily. He moved quietly towards the gun.

"I didn't kill your stupid oafish brother. He hung himself. Coward couldn't live with the guilt."

Kevin picked up the gun. "I just wanted to teach you a lesson." He pointed it at Lucifer.

Lucifer lunged for him and a shot went off. Lucifer was momentarily stunned but no wound. No blood. He just smiled maniacally at the fat man. His eyes turned to fire. Then he showed off his nastier side. The woman screamed and ran out of the house.

Lucifer picked up Kevin and slammed him against the wall. "You hurt my daughter." He placed his hand on the man's neck and began to squeeze.

Kevin choked. "I'm so sorry. Please."

"Oh you'll be sorry." The Devil growled as he tightened his grip. He felt sinew and cartilage tearing. Blood began pouring out of the man's mouth and nose. His eyes bulged.

He could hear sirens in the background growing louder. The woman outside still screaming. Kevin was gasping for his last breaths of air.

"FREEZE!"

He turned to the voice. His eyes upon Detective Decker. He dropped the lifeless man.

Her eyes grew wide. She gasped loudly. "Oh my god." She pulled her gun out and pointed it at him. "Lucifer?"

He caught a glimpse of his face in the mirror. His usual handsome visage replaced by the grotesque red mask of nightmares. His eyes glowing with fire. He took a step towards her.

She screamed and ran out of the house. His face returned too normal as he went after her. "Detective!" He ran outside and watched Chloe struggling to get into her car.

"HE'S THE DEVIL!" The other woman was screaming.

Lucifer ran to Chloe's car and stood in front of it. "Wait!" He called to her.

She started the car. He walked to the driver's window and leaned down. She just looked at him. He could feel her fear. He could see the alarm in her eyes. He hadn't meant to scare her.

"Get away from me!" She shouted. She put the car in drive and sped off nearly knocking him to the ground.

He could hear more sirens approaching. Maze was at his side. "We need to get out of here."

The ran to the car and got in. Speeding off before the cops had noticed they were there.
