*sound of snapping fingers*

*the locks on F13F's arms and legs slide back and he is freed*


F13F is visibly shaken. He takes a long look at the sobbing and bleeding Chronogrl as he slowly walks over to the boxes. One peek at the open Box A, then he lets out a deep sigh before opening Box B.

Another piece of paper inside!

F13F lifts it up and reads it slowly. "Put your left hand, fingers open, on the table on the left," his voice sounds distant and shaky.

He looks at the left and spots the old, rusty table. He looks around at Chrono again, then at Ferret and Zero in turn. Both look ashen white. He proceeds to the left towards the table and spreads the fingers of his left hand on it.

There is a very slight murmur in the air, like a very soft draft of a breeze.

F13F's scream fills the room. He looks at his left hand and screams again. Three of the fingers have been cleanly cut off, right at the base of their origination from the hand. All three severed fingers lie shaking and twitching on the table, small gushes of blood spraying out of each of them. F13F cries out loudly, shaking the table with a big jolt, and all 3 severed fingers roll down the table and fall to the floor in soft, audible clatters. The entrance door opens and a medic hurries to him too, holding a Health Pack.


The third choice is...BLOODY RIBCUT!
