This was a bad idea this was a bad idea this was a bad idea.
Holly runs as fast as she can but the demon's faster. She has no idea where Lightning's gotten to; maybe he found a tree to climb. She on the other hand has been diverted into a treeless hill and she's careening down a slope, trying very hard not to trip.
And the demon's gaining on her.
She's never seen anything like it and neither has Crystal; maybe Book knows what it is but Book's asleep. It's mostly mouth - it looks like a cross between a floorlength mirror of a mouth and a snake to propel the mouth along.
And Holly's not fast enough.
The mouth catches her.
But it doesn't hurt.
Where are we?

"Yeah. But Lightning was awake when the portalface found us and Lightning knows probably less than me or Crystal about demons so he won't know how to kill it. He has to stay away from it long enough to get tired and let Book wake up. They can't switch whenever like we can - I mean, almost whenever, if I'm fronting constantly for forty or fifty sands I need a break and can't come back right away after Crystal's barely done anything, but that basically never comes up."
A sand, says the footnotes, is about an hour and a half.
