Buffy looked down at the man wide eyed, feeling for any sign of life. Anything, any pulse, any indication. At first, she felt nothing, and her body seemed to deflate.
Then his head moved on his own, groaning slightly. Apparently the man hadn't been possessed for long. Breathing out, Buffy lowered him to the ground carefully. Yeah, it might be bad to leave him in an ally, but what else were they supposed to do? Take him with them? Not likely.
"Yeah." she said softly with a nod. He was alive. "We should probably get out of here." it was one demon. She didn't like that it got away, but one more wasn't going to make that much more of a difference. If it did, then she'd take the blame.
Buffy really needed to learn that exorcism.
Crossing her arms over her stomach, she looked past Dean back to the street. It didn't matter how often she did this, dealing with human life never really got easier. At least he was alive.
