Blood Is Key

Just before the demon child fell into the grinder, Lenny moved. 

With speed that was impossible for the eyes to follow, Lenny moved. 

Instantly, just before the demon child would fall into the pit, he grabbed the child by the clothes.

This sudden turn of events took everyone by surprise. 

The demon mother froze, the demon monks froze and even Victor and Coco were absolutely surprised by what had just happened.

Even Lenny looked at his hands in shock. he could not believe what he had done. In truth, he could not even see reason for why he did what he did. 

Instantly, one of the demons, the male monk demon, screamed in a low pitched eerie voice, "Blasphemy!" At the same time, it attacked Lenny with long claws for his head. 

Lenny turned in the direction of the attack, sidestepping a bit and then he grabbed the demon's head. 

*WUSH!* 

white flames instantly engulfed the head of the creature, turning it to nothingness.
