He sat in the chair, hands cuffed, staring at his boots, scuffed and covered in demon ichor - all that was left of Randall after the failed exorcism - facing a murder charge. The police had raided the abandoned building just in time to witness him beheading an Eyghon possessed Randall. The rest had scattered, but weakened by magicks, he’d been caught.

“Let him go. His story checks out. An 8mm film camera was found on the scene, but no body. Just film students having a lark.”

 

Ripper Giles walked out of the station, but not exactly with his head held high.

Poor Giles, for having to lose his friend that way. :( I could clearly see the scene, and it fits! Thanks for sharing!
