Again with the lack of response and Chris rolled his eyes. Just as he was about to take another step, there was a loud crash that answered his earlier question and posed several more. His first instinct to draw his gun was a new one, but one that he knew better than to doubt while he rushed to the scene of the disturbance. His finger wasn't on the trigger yet, but he was damn close as soon as he saw someone clearly demonic stalking out of the room behind Rush.

There was no time to question or think. Old instincts rapidly took over and he flicked the barrel of his gun to telekinetically toss the demon back into the room. He holstered it, rushed to his partner's side, and grabbed his arm to usher him into motion. "What the hell did you do?!" he asked. There was no way Rush had summoned the demon as a guileless mortal and demons wouldn't usually make return calls if they had gotten what they were looking for in the first place.
