Seven, once her head had cleared a bit, focused and forced the thug's muscles to freeze. Unable to move, he was helpless to do anything as she stood and grasped his chin in one hand, the back of his head in the other, and twisted so forcefully that when his neck snapped, his head almost spun 360 degrees. His body hit the ground with a heavy thud and she stepped on his ribs, grinding her boot into his unfeeling body. She was angry. Angry enough that her eyes, though blind in appearance, were glowing brightly enough to illuminate the area of her face around them. It gave her a truly frightening appearance. She opened her mouth and let out a rasping snarl. The other three demons each took a step back. She wasn't just angry. She was furious.
She kicked off the dead man's body, hurling herself into a sprint. Fire ignited in her footsteps and around her tightly clenched fists. She crossed the distance between herself and the other three men in a few strides, drawing one flaming fist back and giving him a punch to the chest. her hand went straight into him, through his ribs, badly bruising her knuckles. He choked and gasped, frozen with shock. She froze him and the other two and twisted her hand, searching for her prize. Grasping it, she gave a yank, and with a growl of effort, a twist or two, and a suction-y, ripping sound, she ripped his still-beating heart from his chest. Blood splattered her clothes and face and coated her hand, running down her forearm. With a cold expression, she released the man from her grasp and built a wall of flames at the mouth of the alley. Her all-white eyes narrowed with anger and contempt. "You will regret coming after me," she hissed, closing in on the two surviving men. "I've barely begun."
