 Later , Black is informed that the girls are missing . She and Means search the woods , finding the girls in a grotto . They are with a teacher from the school , Ben Fisher ( John Pyper @-@ Ferguson ) who attacks Means ; she subdues him and he is arrested . She later confronts him , and it is revealed he is a former Group member charged with protecting the girls due to their powers . When Black later learns that Fisher has been released , she fears for McKenna 's life . She rushes to the school , knowing the girls will be at a prayer meeting . She arrives just too late to prevent Alex from firing upon the meeting ; Fisher is killed while shielding McKenna . Later , Means shows Black two sets of DNA test results — one from McKenna , the other from the Shroud of Turin . The profiles seem to prove that McKenna is related to Jesus Christ ; Means entrusts them , and the decision as to whether to proliferate them , to Black .
