You reach for the gun along with the crazy man, however, he is closer. His fingers curl around the grip of the weapon and he quickly rolls onto his side, facing you. You have no time to react as he squeezes the trigger and fires off a bullet.

At such close range, he can't miss. You feel the bullet pierce into your abdomen. He pulls the trigger a second time, and the muzzle flash is so blindingly bright you close your eyes instinctively to protect them.

You don't feel that second bullet hit you.

You open your eyes and find that you're no longer laying on the floor in the church's basement. Instead you are now in some kind of black abyss where only you, and darkness, seem to exist.

"I see you've failed, but that doesn't surprise me," you hear someone say, the voice echoing through the abyss and sounding like it is coming from everywhere. You recognize the voice as the one you heard not too long ago when you signed that contract.

You get to your feet and notice you don't appear to have any wounds anymore. You have been healed by someone, or something.

"I don't have time to properly greet you, or play right now. I am busy trying to see how many of those who perished here today I can get to sign a contract with me. In the meantime, make yourself comfortable. I will come collect you soon, and we will be able to spend eternity together with you as the servant, and me as your master."

"But I still have time left, and the deal was you only had me until I paid off my debt!" you call into the darkness.

The only response is a cruel, haunting laughter that rattles you to your very core. It hadn't misspoke, you're sure of that now, it had no intention of letting you go even after you'd paid off your debt. You wish now that you hadn't signed that contract as who knows if it'd even had kept its' end of the bargain if you succeeded.
