The town was pensive. The verdict was unambiguous; even as Mr. Smith swung creakily from the gallows above, it was becoming quite clear that he was not one of the evildoers that had infiltrated the formerly peaceful village.

As the sun slipped below the horizon, many of the townspeople retired to their houses, to sleep away a fitful night with only the hope that they would still be alive in the coming dawn.

But not all.

Here and there, some stayed only briefly at their houses, gathering robes and masks, candles and charms. They assembled in their small groups in cellars and barns, whispering to eachother the words of invocation and initiation. Signs were given, handshakes were made.

And in the gutteral flickering of candlelight, hidden from the prying eyes of the outsiders, each secret society plotted its next move.

Dr. Carolyn Fern edged her way down the alleyway, silently skirting the debris.

Even from this far away, she could hear their yelling, their hoarse invectives launched at eachother. She peeked around the corner, observing from the hopefully-safe distance. Despite the noise, some of them looked calm and rational, the kind you might not look twice at down at the University...but others were frothing at the mouth, capering this way and that before throwing themselves into the melee once more with unchecked, frenetic energy.

No, there was no doubt about it; this was the group.

She got out her notebook, trying to get it prepared without taking her eyes off of the group, not wanting to miss a moment of their interplay, the back and forth.

"What does it mean?" she asked herself as she scribbled into the notebook. No sooner had she looked back up than it became obvious that a surge of energy had overtaken the group, and that their whirling pandemonium now had some sort of darker, more sinister purpose, a definite sense of dire purpose. Indeed, a rhythmic chant could now be made out, growing louder and louder, and as Dr. Fern watched, stunned, one of the group was singled out, culled, and then set upon by the rest of the group, who soon had him helpless. He screamed like a man possessed, flailing with primordial purpose, less a man than an animal, but it was all for naught.

They took him before the altar, before which so many had given their lives; tens, no...hundreds, no...thousands, no...the number sacrificed before this altar was uncountable, stretching back beyond the aeons, and all the while the group was chanting, a livid sound that kept growing in strength until Dr. Fern had to clasp her hands over her ears lest the savage strength of the chant burst her eardrums, but still, she could make out the chant in perfect, shining detail, listening to it over and over as the poor man was killed in front of her eyes: "Lynch!...lynch!...lynch!...LYNCH!"
