EPILOGUE
“Welcome back,” Malevant said as Scintor shimmered into the underworld with Casey.
“Malevant,” Casey gasped.
“Well done,” Malevant said to Scintor. “You’re payment is waiting for you. I’ll take over from here.”
“As you wish,” Scintor said, and then shimmered away.
“You’ve led us on quite a merry little chase,” Malevant said. “You should have known you couldn’t escape us.”
“Malevant, I,” began Casey.
Malevant didn’t wait for Casey to finish what he was saying. Instead, he formed a fireball and cast it at Casey, enveloping the serial killer. He stood and watched as the flames erupted around Casey who stood screaming in agony. Suddenly the flames went out.
“Oh, don’t worry,” said Malevant, smiling. “I have no intentions of causing you any permanent damage. But the fireballs can be incredibly painful, as you have just learned. Just enough to cause you excruciating pain without damaging you in any way.”
He cast another fireball at Casey and again the serial killer began to scream in agony.
“Now,” Malevant said as the flames subsided, “a few more of these and perhaps you’ll be ready to tell me how you managed to escape from Malator’s domain. You will tell me the truth eventually. That I can promise you. There’s nowhere for you to go and I have nothing but time.”
Malevant cast another fireball at Casey and watched as the serial killer once again began to writhe in agony. Very soon he would tell Malevant whatever the demon wanted to know.

Re: Just Desserts
Well, it looks like David/Casey got his "just dessert" in the end. I was surprised to learn that the Charmed Ones couldn't help him, but the way you wrote in the clause about his being dead was cool!
This was a good story!
