1. DON'T FEAR THE REAPER - Death
"I've never really liked the idea of dying" said Batty "But if you're sure, I'll give it a go"
"IT'S NOT SOMETHING YOU SHOULD GET HUNG UP ABOUT" said Death reassuringly. "IT'S AS EASY AS FALLING OFF A LOG"
"OK. Ready to catch me?" called Batty from the high pillar.
"I REALLY DO ADMIRE YOUR TRUST" said Death, to no-one in particular.

2. NOW YOU SEE ME. NOW YOU'RE DEAD!
"THE THING ABOUT MAKING A DEAL WITH ME" said Death "IS YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PAY UP".
He looked around casually. "LIKE WHEN YOU MEET THAT SKELETON"
"What skeleton? I don't see a skeleton!" Batty whined. "EXACTLY" remarked Death, pointedly.

3. THE GHOST OF BASES PAST (If you believe in such things)
"Things that shouldn't be! Night when it should be day! Day when it should be night! Surviving explosions an inch from my ear!" said Batty "It all makes me wonder whether I was never brought back to life at all. Perhaps I am dead!"
"BELIEVE ME" said Death darkly "WHEN YOU ARE DEAD, YOU KNOW IT ... JUST TRY BUYING A RAILWAY TICKET"

4. OUT OF THE FRYING PAN ...
"I DON'T LIKE TO BE KEPT WAITING" said Death "I COULDN'T ACCURATELY SAY THAT I HAVE A LIFE, BUT I DO HAVE OTHER THINGS TO BE DOING"
"Don't go away just yet" said Batty "I'm sure I'll be needing you before too long"
"WHY DON'T YOU PLAY IN THAT ABANDONED MINE WITH ITS LAVA AND ZOMBIES?" said Death, cheerily but helpfully

5. QUIET NIGHT IN
"Perhaps it's the calm before the storm. Perhaps there are just times when you have to prepare for the big push. Whatever it is, Death seems to be a distance away this night. Let's hope he's gone for good" said Batty.

6. MIDNIGHT SHOW!
"THERE" said Death, kindly "I TOLD YOU IT WAS WORTHWHILE ME STICKING AROUND UNTIL THE END"
At first Batty didn't reply. He sat there with a glazed expression. Then he gabbled some nonsense about "...Exploding Spiders!" and "Three-hundred armed Skellingtons!"
But it was all over now, and Batty could recuperate with a hot whiskey.
