Todd Harris walked out of the police station. This case had been draining on him, Harris despised the Jigsaw case and what it had done to the reputation of the city's law enforcement. He would often think to himself about Kramer and if he truly was some sort of genius as the papers made him out to be or if the police were that incompetent. He had dealt with killers before but Jigsaw was different, the crime scenes made even his stomach churn. Part of Jigsaw though intrigued him as it had any amateur sleuth, Why? Why would someone do this? It was somewhat morbidly fascinating.
There stood his car, it was time to end this day and get some much needed rest. The blackness of the night shadowed the fact that his car was broken into, the window was smashed and the trunk lay open. He reached for his phone.
"Leo I need a ride home-" Harris couldn't finish his sentence, A cloaked figure with a leather pigs mask rushed out and drugged him...
He woke up in a room that smelled awful, it was filled with corpses. His foot was in a shackle chained to a pipe in the corner. Before he could comprehend the situation the all too familiar clown appeared on a static filled tv.
"Hello Todd I want to play a game. You not doubt notice the 'losers' around you. Like you Todd, they didn't appreciate their lives and were put to the test. You'll notice the body of Reverend Jeremy Philips, a man who's concept of good and evil cost him his mind and body. You'll see the bones of our aspiring thespian Gary Ross in the corner, he couldn't deal with critique and his audience ate him alive. And in the final corner the lovely Amanda Young, whose body I personally stole from the crypt, anger consumed her and she couldn't win Round 2. Why do I show you these lost souls Todd? Because you have a fascination with death, and not life. The police are meant to help Todd, not ponder over the end of days and create psychiatric backgrounds for monsters. You know the routine well enough by now Todd to know the rules of the game and make no mistake the rules must be followed. I want you to become a murderer Todd, your loyal friend and partner Leo Jackal will pass into this room soon, it could be hours, it could be days or even weeks. You are to kill him and who ever he brings in with him with the saw hidden in the room. If he doesn't end up coming... Well I'm sure you've read the case file of Laurence Gordon and Adam Faulkner...
