It doesn't surprise me that the witch can conjure up demons. Whatever the monster is that flies at our faces is being dealt with by Reed. But then someone crashes into us from behind, and I am sent sprawling to the grass, my rifle clattering into the darkness. For a moment, I think the witch must have summoned something truly deadly...but then I turn and recognize the sheriff.
"Sheriff," I say, relieved. "Look, we caught the witch, the child-killer." She must have been confused by the darkness. When she's sees what we're doing, I'm sure she'll be of help.
