   Summary

   Michael Afton dies while listening to his father's anguished screams. He should be content, if not happy.

   He's not content.

   He's given a second chance, but life is not given without exchanges.

   Or, terminally ill Michael tries to stop the man behind the slaughter lets goooo\\\
