Story of Devi Durga:

According to the  Hindu purana there was  a Asura or Demon named Mahishasura ( Buffelo headed Demon) who received the blessing of lord Brahma by his intense penance and devotion that he cannot be killed by any male creature in the universe but only by Female girl.

With This blessing of Brahma he thought he became invincible and attacked heaven . After defeating Devas  force, he became the king of Heaven and Earth.With the Newly achieved powers he became very arrogant and ordered all his Asur companions to destroy all theTemples and Idols of Devas on Earth. He also ordered all Sages to worship his Idols only instead of Devas.

All defeated devas take refuge to Trimurti (Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva)  . The Unified power of Trimurti formed Devi Durga .  Face of Devi Durga was formed from Lord Shiva (Or may be from Lord Shiva`s Wife Parvati) . Ten Hands were formed from Lord Brahma and Legs were created from Lord Vishnu.

Devi Durga`s Ten hands were adorned with very powerfull weapons which were given by various devas :

 Lord Shiva Gave another Trident which was originated from his own Trident

 Lord Vishnu gave his Sudarshan Chakra or Disk and Mace

 Lord Brahma gave his holy Kamandal

 Indra (King of Devas) gave his Lightning Bolt

 Baruna gave his snake rope.

 Himalaya gave his Lion

 Kumara’s gave his lance

To combat the evil Mahishasura, she had appeared in a great blinding light, to combat this demon and end it for all to be in peace. Mahishasura had gravely underestimated her, thinking: "How can a woman kill me, Mahishasur—the one who has defeated the trinity of gods?". However, Durga roared with laughter, which caused an earthquake which made Mahishasur aware of her powers.

And the terrible Mahishasura rampaged against her, changing forms many times. First he was a buffalo demon, and she defeated him with her sword. Then he changed forms and became an elephant that tied up the goddess's lion and began to pull it towards him. The goddess cut off his trunk with her sword. The demon Mahishasur continued his terrorizing, taking the form of a lion, and then the form of a man, but both of them were gracefully slain by Durga.

Then Mahishasur began attacking once more, starting to take the form of a buffalo again. The patient goddess became very angry, and proclaimed to Mahishasur in a colorful tone—"Roar with delight while you still can, O illiterate demon, because when I will kill you, the gods themselves will roar with delight".When Mahishasur had half emerged into his buffalo form, he was paralyzed by the extreme light emitting from the goddess's body. The goddess then resounded with laughter before cutting Mahishasur's head down with her sword.

By Killing Mahishasura Devi Durga also Named as Mahishasurmardhini—the slayer of Mahishasur.
