Chapter 2

You move your hand gingerly down your leg, noticing a slight pain in your wrist as you do so. You reach the odd metallic thing around your leg.

The metal is cold and feels very strong. As you feel the metal around your leg, you start to gently panic. You find that you do not like having metal surrounding your leg.

A memory suddenly enters your thoughts, perhaps of childhood or from some other life. You remember having your leg stuck in sinking mud. You were in a field screaming for half an hour before anyone found you.

The metal is a chain, shaped like a snake.

You hear the metal hissing. Could it be alive? It is so dark that you cannot see anything. More water is dripping.

Do you...

(a) Shout and scream in order to raise the alarm
(b) Try and get the metal snake off your leg
(c) Press the button by your hand
(d) Try and remember who you are

  1. i am not liking this story. I feel as though I am in a Saw movie. I am scared Dr. Phil is lying next to me with dismembered hands and feet just waiting to touch me with a bloody stump.

    I cannot make a choice. But I will make a choice. I will choose B.

  4. I'm not ready to pu-push the button yet.
    I feel like I am already doing (d), just by making these decisions.
    And if I shout or scream I know I will just panic myself, whoever I may be.
    I don't want to choose B again though so I am saying,

    (A)AAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

  5. hi socrates

    i vote for 'b' which is 'push the button' i think
    if 'b' is not 'push the button'
    then i vote for whichever letter stands for 'push the button', hopefully 'b'

  8. I'm busy throwing hints that he keeps missing
    Don't have to think about it
    I Wanna kiss and
    Everything around it but he's too distant
    I wanna feel his body
    I can't resist it

    I know my hidden looks can be deceiving
    But how obvious should a girl be?
    I was taken by the early conversation piece
    And I really like the way that he respect me

    I've been waiting patiently for him to come and get it
    I wonder if he knows that he can say it and I'm with it
    I knew I had my mind made up from the very beginning
    Catch this opportunity so you and me could feel it 'cos

    If you're ready for me boy
    You'd better push the button and let me know
    Before I get the wrong idea and go
    You're gonna miss the freak that I control

    I'm busy showing him what he's been missing
    I'm kind of showing off for his full attention
    My sexy ass has got him in the new dimension
    I'm ready to do something to relieve this mission

    After waiting patiently for him to come and get it
    He came on through and asked me if I wanted to get with him
    I knew I had my mind made up from the very beginning
    Won't miss this opportunity so you and me could feel it 'cos

    If you're ready for me boy
    You'd better push the button and let me know
    Before I get the wrong idea and go
    You're gonna miss the freak that I control

    If you're ready for me boy
    You'd better push the button and let me know
    Before I get the wrong idea and go
    You're gonna miss the freak that I control

    I've been dropping so many hints
    You’re still not getting it
    Now that you’ve heard everything I have to say
    Where we gonna go from here?

    After waiting patiently for him to come and get it
    He came over and asked me if I wanted to get with him
    I knew I had my mind made up from the very beginning
    Won't miss this opportunity so you and me could feel it 'cos

    If you're ready for me boy
    You'd better push the button and let me know
    Before I get the wrong idea and go
    You're gonna miss the freak that I control

    If you're ready for me boy
    You'd better push the button and let me know
    Before I get the wrong idea and go
    You're gonna miss the freak that I control
    (I control)

    If you're ready for me boy
    (For me boy)
    You'd better push the button and let me know
    Before I get the wrong idea and go
    (Oh, oh)
    You're gonna miss the freak that I control

    Ohhhhhhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhhhh

  10. He made his choice, through the medium of song.

    Can I just say that "I was taken by the early conversation piece" is not a line I would expect in a Sugababes song. Or in any song for that matter.

    "My sexy ass has got him in the new dimension" is on the other hand, something I would expect to hear in a Sugababes song, and I would hope to hear in a Leonard Cohen 'joint'.

    My choice was b), that's b)
