Fin makes his way through the mansion to get some help.

He wonders where this little guy is going. Deuce's FUTURE TRAIL is headed in the same direction he's headed, by sheer coincidence. Fin decides to follow him for a bit, keep an eye on him. For as long as Deuce's path matches his, that is. There's pretty much no chance he's headed to the same place, though. That would be statistically improbable.

He's got no idea what these other goons are up to here. Funny, their FUTURE TRAILS end here. He's not gonna stick around long enough to find out why. He's a bit too woozy from the blood loss to sort out this mess anyway.

Author commentary: Here's a real good paradox. The first true paradox of this criminal caper, possibly. CD follows Fin's blood trail. But at the same time, Fin is following CD's future trail. And in the process, Fin is leaving the very trail of blood that CD will be following in the future. Who is following whom?? It's almost like the one thing that ISN'T being followed, by ANYONE, is the plot. Ha ha :-)
