Miracle Escape

I overcorrected on the icy road, and the car went over the edge.


As it fell to the darkness below, time seemed to slow. I thought it was just a consequence of my seemingly imminent death, but then I noticed the woman in red sitting in the passenger seat.


"Well, quite the pickle, hey?"


"Who the hell are you?"


"Good choice of words.


Look, I'm someone who can arrange a miraculous escape for you, in exchange for your soul."


"Aren't miracles the other side's thing?"


"Cute.


Time's ticking."


I agreed, and miraculously was thrown clear.


The passengers, not so much.
