Ferucci was the first to step toward Takoi.
He grabbed Takoi's hand, pressed the tip of his blade under his fingernail, and peeled it off.
His scream rang out, sharp and agonized, but not loud enough to impress Hector and Bella.
"I give it a 6.5." Hector said, scratching his chin like he was already planning what to do next.
"I give it a 5. It was ass." Bella added, unimpressed.
"What?! It was a decent scream!" Ferucci scoffed, shaking his head.
"Let me show you what a real scream sounds like." Hector said, stepping in. He grabbed the same hand Ferucci had just tortured and, without hesitation, began bending each finger backward—slowly, making sure Takoi felt every excruciating second of it.
His screams were louder this time, his fingers now mangled beyond recognition.
"Basic, but the suffering was good. I'll give it an 8." Ferucci said, nodding in approval.
