Saw Stories 1: "Hello Anthony"
Awakening
"Hello Anthony," I heard as I woke up.
I was in a dark room and couldn't seen anything in front of me. I felt something cold on my ankle. I reached down and felt a shackle attached to me. I tried to take it off, but I couldn't I stood up. Then the lights suddenly turned on.
I was in a small room. I looked down and saw the shackle was attached to a pipe. I tried to pull it from the pipe, but I was unsuccessful. I looked down and saw a tape recorder next to the pipe. I picked it up and turned it on.
"Hello Anthony," a voice came from the recorder. "For the longest time you have used others kindness and forgiveness for your own means. You have used them to support either your drug use or your alcoholism. No matter how much people gave you a chance, you never truly cared for them. Now you will be tested to see who you care about. There are four other rooms to this building. Each room will test you, but your only goal is to save yourself. In front of you is a large metal door. It is locked, but you must find the key to open it. If you do not open it in time, it will be locked permanently. Trust only yourself and save only yourself. Live or die Anthony, the choice is yours."
"What the fuck," I screamed.
I heard a large beep and looked above the door. There was a timer that started at "2:30", but kept going down. I looked around and saw a loose brick in the wall. I took out and there was a small key. I quickly grabbed it and sat down. I quickly put it in the lock of shackle and freed myself from my bondage. I walked to the middle room and looked around. There were the four doors. Each door had a number on it, 1-4. I went to room one and opened the door slowly.
I walked into the dark room. I couldn't see anything, but I continued walking into the room. Then the door shut by itself and the lights came on. In the middle of the room was a large table and someone lying on it. I was someone I knew.
