We re-grouped around 2.30pm, and the afternoon was pretty much the same as the morning. Litany, prayers, reading, shouting, swearing. One again I had to watch, biting my tongue as Father V attacked the demon, and It attacked Maria. I could see bruising appear freely under her skin as It tore her muscles in vain, trying to free itself from the leather binds. The crunching of her joints, grounding furiously together as she writhed pierced me. I can still hear the unholy echoes now as I write.

It has been three days since we began, and over the last 24 hours, it has escalated very quickly, beyond what I think we were all prepared for. I haven’t seen a demon with this power before, one that isn’t afraid of us. It may seem a little rattled, but that’s only because we have it tied to the bed. I think we pissed it off rather than struck the fear of God into it.

I wonder what tomorrow will bring? Whatever happens, I want Maria back, and will not let the Leviathan have her at any cost. Father V is doing a good job at crippling her, and there is nothing I can do or say about it… It’s all legit, and I don’t think the Church will back up any allegations if I wish to lodge a grievance at this stage. Disclaimers remember??
