Death stood patiently on the banks of the mostly frozen river and waited for the next soul to join her. She heard the train above as it rolled by her. She could see two men on the outside of it, one desperate to reach the other. Metal gave way from metal and she listened to the scream from up above her as her appointment rushed to meet her.
‘Bucky’ struck the ground at Death’s feet with bone-crushing, heart-stopping force. Right on time, she thought.
Death felt the moment the man went from his realm to hers. She knelt beside him and patiently waited for him to sit up for her.
