The demon's touch burned, leaving a suspiciously familiar scar. A certain young priest had one just like it on his forearm. The demon tried to pull her into its gnashing mouth, which had formed thousands of sharp teeth. 

There was a blinding light, and Lucas appeared out of seemingly nowhere. The presence of a full fledged demon called to him. He was holding a familiar trunk, which made a huge clatter as he dropped it and lunged for the tentacle that was latched onto Evie. It burst into flames upon his touch. 

The demon howled and withdrew as Lucas placed himself between it and Evie. The trunk laid open behind it, offing a dark place to hide. The demon slithered backwards into it, and Lucas pounced on the lid to latch it shut. 

He laid over top of the trunk, seemingly exhausted by having teleported there.
