"Three of us, guess who he'll save first?" Brenda asked, her voice laced with manic anticipation. "Crazy woman!" Sophia gritted her teeth.

"You're curious, aren't you?" Brenda turned to Sophia, then sighed. "We both know, if he can only save one, he'll save Candace, even if she's just Zoey Smith's stand-in." Talking to a lunatic was pointless.

Sophia tugged at her seatbelt, trying to unbuckle it, but it was jammed. Any forceful movement would send the car sliding faster.

Just as she was at her wit's end, Henry appeared above.

"Henry, I'm here!" Brenda yelled first.

"Mr. Sterling, save me, please, I'm so scared!" Candace wailed.

Sophia held her breath. Then, Henry's voice cut through the air.

"Honey, don't worry, I'm here."

She turned and saw him crouched outside the front window, staring at her.

Tears welled up in Sophia's eyes. "Honey."

Henry grinned. "If you're scared, call me 'honey' a few more times."

"Stop, stop! Call for help first, wait for the rescue team."

Sophia fought to stay calm. Henry might be able to save her, but only her. What about Brenda. and Candace? "They won't get here in time."
