Countdown
The Time of Death
Prologue: Thank You for Choosing Death
Death comes for everyone.
Some spend their lives running from it.
Others spend their lives waiting for it.
This is the story of two souls caught between those opposing truths.
Derek feared death. Not because he was weak, but because the terror of his own mortality consumed him.
Emily was different. A relentless illness stole her strength piece by piece until death no longer felt like an enemy, but a long-awaited release from suffering.
One man would commit the unthinkable to outrun death.
One woman would learn to embrace it.
This is a collection of stories chronicling the tragic fate of Derek and Emily.
A tale of two souls forever intertwined across life, death, and whatever lies beyond.
