All perks are in my profile page. I don't make them up for the story, I make them up before hand and try to solve the problems in the story with them. Check them out if you are curious.

"What would you have done if he set the bombs off early?" Laura asked, as I prepared her a spear. I'd taken a pipe and a shard of metal from an engine, and was whittling the blade to be sharp enough to pierce and slay a Jigsaw.

I waved my electric screwdriver. "I'd have probably sought an escape out. I could drill my way out through some doors. I planned out a lot of contingencies for ways this could go wrong, and there's a reason this was the first item I had Gordon stick inside one of the Jigsaw lottery winners. This place isn't the sort of place where you want to go in without hardware."

"We should run now. Let the police handle him." She said, sitting on a barrel of old oil and pressing her hand to her face. She seemed resigned to my answer.

"It's not really safe now. We're almost at the end. It's safer to push through Jigsaw than whatever traps he left on other exits. He's just a man and we have two guns, a potato gun, and a bunch of weapons and explosives. Plus, I get massive buffs for killing him so if it goes wrong I will be unhappy. I can spread some of that power around."

Laura waved a hand. "The real reason you're staying."

I was trying to be more honest. I'd kept my stuff kinda secret early on, but I didn't want a psychological attack to hit me at a key point.

Cure came, a stick of dynamite in their mouth. I rubbed their head. "Good Cure. You did so well fetching me this this." I added it to the pile.

Cure jumped up onto my shoulders, holding on tight. I hugged back at them, squeezing them tight.

"I know it was hard. Jigsaw was very mean to try to rip your limbs off. Next time, you can rip his limbs off."

Cure wagged their tail, happy to be close again.

David Tapp held up his shotgun, armed and loaded after we'd removed it from its case. "Why don't we just go blast him now. He's just a man. We don't need spears"

I wiggled my hand. "He's absurdly tough, fast, and better prepped than us, plus he can cheat. Why wouldn't we get every advantage we can get?"

I finished securing the spearhead. I'd focused on their stopping power. They had broad heads with spikes on that would get caught in their enemies, along with wings to prevent someone from charging through them to hit people.

Exceptionally jury rigged spear. 110 hitpoints. 15 armor. 10 damage added. Special effect. Will impose a 10% debuff easily when thrust into an enemy.

I had rough materials, but so did my enemies. This spear was heavy, thick, and ready to go. It was mostly steel so it weighed a bit, but that was fine. This wouldn't be a long fight.

Crateshield. 110 hitpoints. 7 armour. Special effect. Electrified. The wires between the wood will electrify any conductive material that hits it, doing 10% electrical damage.

For myself, I'd sought to push the limits of what was possible with a stronger shield. I was worried that Jigsaw would cheat again, and just bring a big gun. As such, I'd crafted a super heavy shield to advance against him. Using my Fugue perk, I'd made something with a legendary quality, beyond the baseline of what I could normally do.

Pipeshield. 1000 hitpoints. 50 armour. They have merged to go beyond the pipes to the concepts of pipes, piping away damage from the wielder.

It was almost as tall of me, with flowing surfaces of metal. You could still see somewhat the pipes within, but somehow I had reforged it to flow. It was designed to resist even gunfire, so that if Jigsaw had a big gun I wouldn't be going down.

I had no idea how I had made it.

I quickly looked at my status, checking what would work best.

I was about 8 times stronger than a fit man. I could beat the world record for weight lifting if I had to by a comfy margin. I could probably pick up a car with how strong I was right now. I was pretty tough as well. Not the toughest person, I know Jigsaw had more health than me, but pretty hard to kill. I was fast, very fast. I had never been able to juggle in my past life, but now, I could get eight bits of junk in the air with ease without any skill.

I'd noticed something else. My strength perks weren't scaling as well any more. They were stronger than before, but they weren't giving me a flat 10 buff any more. I supposed at my current strength that was too much energy for E ranked perks. Still, with both of them I could add a lot of strength.

My big issue was that I wasn't that smart or wise. My brain wasn't quite sluggish, and Laura could cover me, but Jigsaw was a genius, and he'd run circles around me. The wisest thing to do would be to just bum rush Jigsaw. I could hit like a car, and splatter him.

I hefted my gun, patted my reinforced armour, and held up my shield. "It's time to kill Jigsaw."

David Tapp looked at me, shaking his head. "I showed you how to use guns better. You know that's not how you hold a weapon. That's a horrible stance."

I looked at him. "I really don't. My original world was a far away land called England. We have no guns there."

I looked around.

"Who here has more than an hour's practise with a gun?"

Everyone put up their hands.

I sighed. "Americans."

Everyone except me, Cure, Timothy and Hayden had a gun. Adam and Tapp had the shotguns, loaded with a total of four shells between them. Jeff had a gun with a single bullet that Jigsaw had left for him. Laura was wielding my pototogun, with what was apparently a not terrible stance.

I would rely on my knife and my shield and enough strength to bend steel.

When we arrived there wasn't a hail of gunfire, or an explosion. Jigsaw had workshop of puppets and traps and tables filled with more of his evil works. He sat calmly on a surgical bed, while Amanda was knelt on the floor next to him, talking quietly. Lynn was kneeling in the corner muttering to herself.

Jeff went to grab her, but I held back a hand.

"Eyes on the prize. We kill Jigsaw, all these problems go away."

"You ruined everything." Jigsaw said.

He slowly got up. He looked pretty spry for someone who had just had brain surgery.

"I made careful plans to enlighten people. I would help them cherish their lives in a fair way. They had abandoned their families, abandoned what was dear for stupid things."

He gestured at Tapp. "You abandoned your wife for the foolish pursuit of revenge." He gestured at Laura. "You abandoned any sense of decency after going to jail." He pointed at Adam. "You spied on innocent people obsessively, hiding in the shadows like a rat." He pushed his hands out. "I would have given you all a choice. You forced me into this."

"We're doing pre fight banter? Fine I guess." If he was gonna let me get closer I wouldn't say no to the chance. We started moving forward, slowly getting into a better position to take him out as I spoke. I pointed at Adam. "He did nothing wrong but pursue your evil." I looked at Laura. "She was in a hard place, trying to get her sister insulin in a government that loves big pharma. She never lost herself." I fist bumped Tapp. "His only sin was chasing you. And," I gestured at Cure. "You stuck a dog in a trap. You're very eager to condemn people for seeking vengeance. You're the person who cherishes life least of all."

"You demon. How do you know so much? You adapt to my traps in a way that's inhuman. I found the answer." He pulled out a knife that glowed red with sigils. My head hurt looking at it. I could instantly tell that this blade could end me.

"You're not first of your kind. Did you think you were the only one? Your kind has many name. Spirits. Demons. Isekais. They all are the same. You're invaders from another world who come to slaughter and ruin our world." I ran my eyes over the blade, identifying it.

Lugal-Silimma. Blade of balance, protecting the earth from demons beyond. Unknown rank blade. Ignores all protections of magic.

"You allied with Autumn. You're ruining this world far more than me. More than that, you kill people because you're a bad husband. Any vision you have is worse for the world."

Stepping forward, I got ready to charge forward when Laura grabbed my shoulder.

"Look up."

I triggered enlightened mind. The world slowed to a pause as I looked up. A host of Billy dolls were falling from the ceiling towards me, each one strapped with razor wire and dirty syringes and smiling with their evil pale clown faces. I swung my shield up, and saw Jigsaw flicking a knife at an exposed spot on my neck as he darted off. I angled my arm in the way to put a metal armor plate between me and the knife, and shouted an order.

"Kill Jigsaw."

In the time I'd spend making equipment I'd had time to repair my plague doctor skill. I pushed my will into the zombie Amanda, forcing her to attack.

As time sped up again, four shots ran out. David Tapp and Adam were on target, while Laura and Jeff were off target. John flexed his body with incredible dexterity, getting out of the way of Adam's shot, but Tapp's slug slammed into him, ripping a chunk of blood and flesh out of his shoulder. I swung my metal shield up, blocking the laughing Billie dolls from falling down and felt a knife clang harmlessly against my armour. I heard the thud of a knife, as Amanda drew and stabbed Jigsaw in the chest with a knife.

He still sped off, but blood leaked from his body as he dived behind a pillar.

He called out. "He got to you too. You're a failure as an apprentice, Amanda." And he was gone.

"Shield wall." I commanded. Everyone got together, putting our shields outwards. I couldn't see Jigsaw. His stealth was a lot higher ranked than my wisdom.

"Laura, Tapp, keep an eye on the area. I'll clear a path.

Laura shuddered, but nodded, and Tapp held his gun at the ready.

"It's time to end this motherfucker." He said.

I couldn't agree more. Amanda seemed to be collapsed to the floor, having an existential crisis, and wasn't helping. I moved forward, and with a hard slam of my shield, cracked the glass case in front of me open.

"You can't hide Jigsaw. We know what corner you're in." We slowly moved forward, me cracking the tables aside with hard slams of my shield. If he was hiding behind one I'd splatter him.

I reached a table with a set of twisting tubes on it, and another puppet he used to test his traps. By the side was another puppet, suspended perhaps like detective Kerry. I went to bash them in, and John Kramer darted in from behind the puppet, as fast as the wind. The demon slaying knife slashed at a weak point on my neck, and I knew it was going to hit. I triggered Limber, and twisted my head out of the way, dodging him by an inch. Meanwhile I triggered my strength perks, and body checked him. He was very fast, but he'd come at me and I was like a train when I moved. I slammed into him. He managed to twist around me, using my weight against me, but I grabbed him with the hand that once held my shield and the pair of us rolled onto the floor.

He was too fast, too skilled for me. Where I made three rapid punches, he made one coordinated twist that dodged them all and left me off balance. Where I used strength, he used my own strength against me, making me damage my armour and weaken myself. I was able to keep his knife off me, but not much else. My armour started to crack and bend under his hits as he avoided every strike I made, my knife nowhere close to him. The spikes were slowing him down, but one by one he managed to slam me down on the ground, breaking my armour spikes.

He managed to dodge a stab from a spear, and drive it into my side. I felt the tip dig past my armor and slice my flesh. He flicked the knife into his other hand, surrending the arm I was holding as he got ready to drive the knife into my neck.

Just as planned. I flicked the knife in my other hand up, and pressed the tip into my my armour. I knew that in a fist fight I'd stand no chance against Jigsaw. I was a master crafter, not a fighter. I pressed the button on the bottom of the knife I had got Gordon to craft, and thousands of volts ran through the conduit in the armor I'd built straight through my hand into Jigsaw.

He fought against it. With his monstrous will he sought to get the spasms of electricity under control, pushing the knife towards my neck. I fought better. I may not have his skill, speed, or will, but I was faster, stronger, tougher, and a gamer. My luck helped too, with most electricity choosing safer paths through me.

Desperate struggle triggered by a grandmaster-

A spear rammed into Jigsaw. Laura's spear. The electricity instantly made Laura loose her grip and fall back as it pulsed through the metal, but Jigsaw was, for a moment, pinned down, the blade slammed straight through his chest.

I could see Jeff looking confused, and Hayden looking disgusted. They were no help. Timothy was looking sick, and had dropped his spear. Amateurs.

Adam and Tapp were not confused. Both of them fired their shotguns. My already heavily abused ears hurt even more. The bullets slammed into John Kramer's head. Brain and bone and blood splattered us.

I wiped away the blood from my eyes. It had a coppery tang.

He was dead. I sighed in relief. I had to be sure though. I took my knife and readied it to stab him. If he had gotten the zombie virus, this would destroy him regardless.

Hayden rushed to stop me, clutching my arm. "He's already dead. Don't d-" Jigsaw flicked the knife up. I dodged, Jigsaw's speed was slower with his massive injuries, and it buried itself in Hayden's neck, not my own. He clutched at the wound, blood leaking, and flopped to the ground.

I turned to Jigsaw, not sure how he was still moving, and rammed the knife repeatedly in his chest. Breathing hard, I pressed both buttons. The fungicide within emptied into his body, the electricity raced over him making him spasm and shake. Even if he had the zombie virus in him from Amanda, this would kill him. I was ready for everything.

I stabbed, and stabbed down, ripping his chest apart, shattering his arms with blows hard enough to dent the concrete. Finally, he stopped moving. I looked up.

Amanda was crying.

I was smiling. I got up, and high fived Tapp, Adam, and tried to high five Laura.

"Hayden is dying." She said. "Save him first before this." I looked over. He didn't look great. Pale face, lots of blood.

I knelt by him. I didn't have my medical skills, but he didn't seem to be spurting blood. I took his hand, and pressed it to the neck wound. "Help is coming. Just keep pressure on it."

I looked at Jeff, and then down at the judge, and put my hand up for a high five. He looked at me blankly.

"Your hated judge is bleeding out, and your wife and child are safe?" I asked him.

He slowly high fived me, looking a bit confused about what was going on. I shoved him away. "Go hug your wife.". He slowly walked to her with a grunt. We'd gotten through it. I checked my perks.

Only a 1000 perk points? Wasn't I meant to get 2000?

I heard a scream from behind, and the last shots of a pair of shotguns. I looked back.

Jigsaw was healing. Flames ripped over his body, and the flesh knitted back together, a hole from a pair of shotgun slugs quickly closing. Everywhere he'd been hurt his flesh was darker, tougher looking. Adam, Laura, and David backed off. Timothy didn't. Jigsaw hit him, and he flew across the room to crack against the wall like he'd been hit by a truck.

"Back off." I warned everyone. I turned to him, knife in hand.

He strolled towards me, confident and sure. I lunged at him, and then twisted and went for the knife. It was antimagical, and his rapid regeneration was definitely magical. He reached it first, tugging out the knife from the judge's neck with a sharp spurt of arterial blood. I went to grab my shield, swinging it up as he walked in, ramming the knife forward.

The blade pierced my shield, sticking out inches from my face. I saw a brief three digit damage message that made me confident I'd be dead without that shield.

I tried to twist the shield, but couldn't. His hands were on it. He pushed me back, slowly pulling the shield away, walking towards me, abandoning shield and blade.

"She gave me a gift. You're not the only one who can make deals with those beyond. Power to make it work, and a substance called chemical Chemical A0-3959X.91 – 15. A long number." He wrenched the shield away and grabbed my neck, holding me up in the air. His lips dripped acid that melted the concrete floor.

I laughed. "You're condemning me from working with something beyond, and you made a deal with Autumn? You made a deal to summon Aliens? If their spawn escapes, this world is doomed. You're a worse hypocrite than I imagined."

"They're all under my will. With this new body I can trap everyone who deserves it. I am immortal. I will be their god. So." He opened his mouth, and a second mouth slowly emerged from his throat, reaching out towards me.

His voice got deeper. "No more tricks or traps, Macgyver?"

I laughed. "Everything is going just as planned. I just needed to delay you till-"

The ceiling collapsed above us. A shot ran out, the massive boom of a Barret XM500 and its .50 bmg rounds.

Jigsaw's head and body exploded under the massive round, acid blood splattering all around and sizzling. Right after that shot a flame ripped down, burning Jigsaw's body, as I twisted away onto the floor.

"I forgot to mention? Amanda betrayed your location as well." I looked up.

Gordon Lawrence, the doctor from Saw one, stood there, a flamethrower mounted on his back. Next to him was Ethan Winters, the engineer and soldier from Resident Evil seven, who I had dropped off before.

"Hi guys."

Boss fight time. John Kramer empowered by an Alien and Autumn vs the whole gang.

I know it is a controversial choice having Saw world have a little mystical juice, but, there's been a lot of build up, for the past three worlds. We know Kramer has been transported to other worlds, we know that cops think a kid got nabbed by a monster, an evil magical entity of fire fucked with him for all of Saw the Video game and a bit before, we know that Kramer has some sort of antimagic. I do also have an in universe sorta canon explanation for magic which will come up soon. Plus, I wanted a good boss fight, so Kramer needed some extra juice.

So, another horror crossover, this time Alien and Saw.

On the fight, Jigsaw has captured and defeated a lot of people. I think it makes sense that he'd be pretty physically dominant even before Alien augs kicked in.

Dragonbornthesam. He's pretty tired of life at the moment. He's been up for a long time. His patience is very short.

Next time, the final confrontation of John Kramer, and onto the next world. If you want to vote, now is the last chance you have to do so, on my profile page or in reviews. The top two choices are Resident Evil 8, where tall vampires and werewolves await, and Freddy and Jason at the moment (including review votes).
