"Eh, I guess I missed this place.." Chris shoved his revolver down into its holster with a slight grimace on his face. Casually he flicked his cigarette away. He'd just beaten an incubus and wasn't quite keen on dealing with another of the under-worldly. A snicker brought his gaze up, and he looked right into two burning red eyes, ones very like the opponent he'd just struck down.
"Why, it's an investigator! Truth and might on your badge, eh?"

Chris dodged quickly to the right, a few bullets speeding past him as the demon rose to the air, wings beating fervently. Drops of sweat rolled down his temple, dripping down his old scar. He looked up - but there was a mist, and nothing was to be seen.
Closing his eyes, Chris put the hand of his tattooed arm against his chest. He had only this to trust. He took aim, and fired one resounding shot.
A scream filled the air and with the mist, the demon dissipated.
