[Blake lets the thing pull him along, now and then glancing back to make sure Ethan Mars is still there. Still alive. Christ, but that's a relief. Blake knew he hadn't killed him, but like they always tell him, knowing and having proof are two different things.]
[Steve marches along beside him, and the balloon thing gets more and more excitable. Blake ignores any weird shimmers in the air.]
[Before long, he can hear a little kid's voice in the distance, and see a shape standing above the grass. He's gotten tall.]
[Steve yaps and runs toward him so she can grab his pant leg and point toward the bearded man.]
[Usually Blake turns and goes the other way if he sees Shaun around. Today's an exception to a lot things.]
