As she is going through puberty, the demon is consuming her faster than before in her transition into an adult. Alone at school and a target of bullying, she turns to nobody and battles the demon by herself with little control. After the demon takes over entirely, Rosie starts to kill people who made her life hard around the village. A priest exorcises her, saving her and removing the demon.
