Chapter 19: Danny POV

I lunged at the phone as it rang when I got into the office.

"How long has the child been possessed?" Matt asked straight away.

"Well, I witnessed it since beginning of November. But it could have started years earlier."

"Oh, dear. That wasn't in the report."

I perked up. "You have the report?"

"A copy. Ah, and how did you see the Demon?"

"It detached from the child in the presence of another Demon. A Class S Demon," I added.

"Oh, wow, when you investigate, you don't mess with Class D's." He paused. "And residual Demon, I see here."

"Yes," I said. I held my breath. Matt wasn't his golly self. Something was wrong.

"Danny, you better snatch that child - he has some serious complications coming up. If he hasn't already, I think the Demon that's still remaining, is holding him open for another to come in. He may already be sucked of a Soul even."

I paled. The young Master was in even more danger than I feared. "Did the Department send someone already to do the Exorcism?"

I heard papers move and he came back. "Yes. You better go before the Reaper takes the Soul completely. You don't have much time."
