I search all the passages I can with my four remaining matches. But there's nothing! I can't find my time machine!

I've memorised the way back, and as the last match dies I try to fight my way back the way I came! But as soon as it's dark there are Morlocks all over me! Too many to fight! They've pinned my arms down! They're tying me up! I hear the sound of a butcher's knife being sharpened against stone! This is...

THE END

Or is there anything I can do to prevent the inevitable?
