In this chapter we revisit some familiar places from the SAW series. Enjoy. (Or suffer the consequences! Just joking.)

Chapter 4

Earlier Officer Samuels had confirmation of where Adam used to live. Now he and three other officers were on their way to the house. It was a tedious journey to say the least. This was because they were running the risk of going to all this trouble and not really finding anything of use. But there was a chance that there was evidence at the house to indicate where Adam might have gone. Or even better, why his fingerprints were on the reverse bear trap found at one of Jigsaw's crime scenes earlier that night.

Eventually the squad car arrived at the address they had been given. The car was parked outside near the road as the four men approached the entrance. The door was locked up tight when Samuels tried to open it.

"Kick it down." He ordered.

One of the officers stood in front of the door and bashed it in with one clean kick. The inside was dark so it was a good thing all the officers had a torch attached to their guns. Samuels poked his pistol round a corner and saw the entrance to a kitchen, the lights were out, as they were around the rest of the building.

"Seems clear!" One of the officers called out from further back near the front door.

Samuels's foot brushed against a wooden baseball bat on the floor next to the dining room table. It was a sign that someone might have dropped it their and it hadn't been picked up since.

There didn't seem to be anything else unusual after the squad investigated the rest of the house so all four of them left and returned to the car outside, which as it turns out, was parked on a double-yellow line. Careless of Samuels to not pay attention to his parking in his... excitement.

Just as they were about to get in the car and head back to the police station Samuels's phone rang and when he answered it was the man at the station who was searching for information on Adam's whereabouts.

"Yeah? Anything new?" Samuels asked.

"Yeah. Apparently one of the last places this guy was seen was by a large meatpacking plant in a quiet estate about five miles from where you are now. If I were you I'd get over there as quick as you can." The man replied.

"OK. Thanks for the Intel. We'll check it out."

Samuels hung up and signalled for the other officers to get back in the car as he entered the drivers seat. It wasn't long before the car went speeding off towards the Gideon meatpacking plant in the next estate.

Ten minutes later and Samuel's squad was entering through the main doors to the Gideon building. Immediately they noticed a trail of blood that lead to somewhere inside the building. The trail looked old. At least a year or two old.

The inside of the building was made to look like an expensive but wrecked house. A big staircase was right in front of the entrance and some hallways lead off in different directions to other parts of the building. One of the officers went just round the corner and looked along the corridor before calling back to the others.

"Hey! There's a basement down here!"

"Alright, we'll split into two pairs. I'll go to investigate the basement with one of you and the other two will continue searching around up here."

Samuels then went with the closest officer to him and the pair of them went down to the basement. The other two remaining officers began their search on the ground floor, investigating the right side of the building first. They came across a room with peeling wallpaper and a safe on the ground. There were two bodies in the room, one was a dark skinned man with a wooden nailed club lodged in the back of his head and the other was as man of about thirty or so with a gunshot hole going through his left eye. A micro cassette player was discarded on the ground. One officer picked it up and found that the tape was already at the end point. He rewound the tape for a few seconds and pressed play. A deep voice spoke.

"Three hours from now the door to this house will open. Unfortunately you only have two hours to live."

Samuels and the other officer were following the old blood trail through a system of stone tunnels beneath the nerve gas house. It had to lead to something important, it just had to. Soon they found a big iron door that was closed at the end of the corridor. Samuels inspected it for a moment before sliding it open, revealing the dark bathroom within. He found the light switch to the right of the door and flicked it on, filling the room with light. He could now see inside the bathroom that there were two decaying skeletons, one of Zep Hindle and one of Xavier Chevez. There were also two test mannequins chained to a pipe by the far wall. Immediately to the right of the door lay a rotting severed foot and an open wallet with a picture of Dr. Lawrence Gordon poking out of the top.

"Jeez. What happened here?" Samuels muttered in disgust.

Samuels approached the two real skeletons and knelt down to examine them. He didn't know who they had once belonged to but they may still be useful to him.

"Call for the forensics officer. We need to get some DNA samples off of these things. That might give us some insight as to what the fuck happened to them." Samuels ordered.

"At once, sir." The other officer answered before going back the way he came, with Samuels following on soon after, just as was taking one last look at the horrifying scene.

So, they're getting closer and closer to catching Jigsaw, but we all know happens to people who get this far. They get shot, or have their head crushed by ice, or get crushed entirely, or get shot by a turret, or gassed... You get the idea. Next chapter up soon.
