   Summary

   After the events of The Exorcist (An AU where Damien survived the fall), Damien finds himself having sinful thoughts about his best friend, Joseph Dyer, to which, seems to be in the same exact situation.

   Damien Karras already saved a child once, but can he save another? Especially when his soul seems to follow Dyer's every step, mirroring his sinful nature? How can he himself get power from Christ, when he himself is feeding into the devil?
