A Lead
“Are you sure this is right?” Johnny said looking a little worried “Yeah, why?” Sam said looking over. “It's just... Never mind.” “There are demons here.” Spawn said coming out of nowhere. “Jesus!” They all half screamed half whispered. “Nowhere near close.” He said jokingly. “I’ll take the back. Two of you take the front the other two watch the windows and any other exit.” After Spawn disappeared Johnny asked, “Why is Spawn in charge?” Twitch replied, “Ex-military, and he knows a thing or two about demons.” “Oh.” “Me and Twitch will take the sides of the house, while you and Badilino take the front.” Sam said pointing to each person in turn. “Let's get this over with.” Michael knocked on the door. “Police. We have some questions about a disappearance.” After a few minutes the front door started shattering in fragments, and the peaceful summer's day was shattered with the sound of gunfire. Both Johnny and Michael dove for cover, as commotion could be heard inside. Michael crouched down looking over where he last saw Johnny, he was crouched not far from the door of the house, he nodded to the house, motioning for Michael to go first. Michael sighed, pulling out a gun and kicked in the door, standing to the side so as not to get hit. One of the perps ran from one of the rooms and right into his line of sight. Before he could shoot, a chain came from the room the guy just came out of pulling him back in, screaming. “CLEAR.” Sam yelled from somewhere in the house followed by Twitch and Spawn. As Johnny and Michael walked in, they took notice of the smell of brimstone, and Spawn dragging in a small red creature, a demon. “Start talking.” He said holding up the demon by the back of the neck, like a cat. “I’m not afraid of you.” It said crossing its arms. “Let’s see how talkative you are after a bath in holy water.” “OK, ok. What do you want to know?” “The missing people. Where are they?” Michael asked before anyone else could ask. It looked at Spawn and back at Michael. “They’re spread around the city. I only know of the ones in the basement and the ones in his alley.” It said pointing to Spawn. They all looked at each other before Sam rushed down followed by Michael, Twitch, Johnny and finally Spawn, with his new friend.
