Mr. Perfect
Legacy Name: Mr. Perfect

It had been two years since Spence had begun his training, and nearly a year since he had begun his internship at Lenox Hill Hospital, but he had taken to the environment like a fish to water. He learned by watching, by listening, by reacting, however the first six weeks were emotionally devastating. Numerous patients died on the way to the hospital, as he stood helplessly over their bodies in the rattling car, compressing until he was forced to stop. Young or old, those instances were always hard, but he had never had to face the family of the deceased. That was the job of Doctors. No, what was worse, he supposed, were the patients with questions: trauma patients that they handled awake and disoriented, and always very panicked. It was their job to engage them, to encourage them, to tell them they were “gonna be fine” even if they weren’t. It didn’t take long for reassurances to unnerve him; after losing a six year old crash victim, the words became repetitive, hollow, an automatic response to avoid talk about the true condition of the patient. He often blamed himself for not being able to do enough, and at one point even felt as though it was too much to handle, having something as important and as fragile as human life entrusted to him. What good was that kind of power if he couldn’t guarantee success? A person’s life was too precious to leave to chance.

He stopped squeezing the airbag momentarily as the erratic beeping of the monitor shrieked as it had a hundred times before- shrill and desperate, it was a sound that unsettled even the most seasoned paramedics. It was the sound of life hanging in the balance, a reminder of how quickly it could be lost, and a force that compelled them to routine reaction. One wrong call or even a moment’s hesitation could be enough to hurl a soul toward its eternal fate, and there weren’t often second chances.

The patient’s eyes lulled slowly into the back of his head and Spence watched as Kelly, the Senior Paramedic on duty, whipped around and reached into the over-head cabinet to open a drawer full of vials. “He’s going into cardiac arrest, prep charge paddles!”

Another slapped softly at the patient’s cheek to illicit a response as Spence continued compressions. “Simon? Come on, come back to us, don’t you give up!”

Spence took a breath, exhaled, and applied pressure once more; for the moment time stood still, and as he compressed he reached an arm down through the man’s chest to grasp at the soul on the other side, as he had many times before… to catch it before it got away. But it was different this time, there was a hollow absence of the warmth of the void between realms. Spence circled his arm blindly several times before fingertips brushed over something reaching back for him, and with one confident swipe of his hand he grasped at something cold and ethereal; a scaly, malnourished hand wrapped its bony fingers tightly around his wrist and pulled back with all of its might. With a cry he shot bolt-upright and shook his arm violently to retrieve it from the monster that had claimed him, but he could not; from out of the void materialized the harvester of souls, Death himself, his heart sorrowful and full of regret.

Spence was bewildered, afraid and defensive; he’d known this was coming, one day or another, but not so soon… not like this. “Death,” he greeted with a familiar nod as his eyes shifted uneasily from his face to the decaying hand around his arm, and back again. It was alarming seeing him like this, even while his face remained unaffected by the rot. He had always been so young, so kind... “Have you come for my patient?” he asked in a calm tone.

A small pitiful smile turned into his cheeks then twitched sadly into a frown. “My friend… you have been meddling in my affairs,” he replied in a hushed tone.

“They’re not your affairs if you never came.”

“I go where I am needed…. To be needed, souls must be allowed to disconnect from their flesh. And you, friend, have not allowed it.”

Spence shot him a spiteful look. “I’ve been saving lives, it’s my job.”

“But not by natural means… you’ve taken it upon yourself to decide that not one will be allowed to die while in your care, and you have upset the balance.”
