Alison came as soon as he called. Standing in the living room, Adam paced back and forth trying to smoke his cigarette as he explained everything to her. Alison sat on the couch slowly looking over the photos…most of all the last one.

Adam couldn't believe it.

A week later finally things were settled at the police station. It had been nearly a good three months since they had last heard from Jigsaw…in fact Detective Mathews had gone missing. Having heard about it mostly in the news, Adam felt his stomach turn as Alison and himself were given the full report. Detective Kerry Anderson was now in charge of the case and sat with Adam as he told his story from start to finish…showing her the photographs.

There was really no answer to it all.

Adam explained how he knew hardly anything about her, the way they broke up and how she showed up at his doorstep the day she went into labor…within hours of Laddy being born she had ran out of him. Nothing…not even a trace.

They had tried their hardest to find out more about this woman…the most they could tell Adam was that she also was a victim of Jigsaw. Frozen Adam couldn't believe it. Hours went by as they showed him police tapes and told him step by step on what had happened to her.

Her full name was Amanda Young…she was thirty-four years old and came from Florida. Other then that a lot about her was unknown. Only that she had been a junkie and sent to prison twice. Kerry asked if Laddy had been born out of compilations, Adam nodded…she explained that Amanda's drug use could have had something to do with that. She told him that Jigsaw had kidnapped her again and she was held with a few others…Detective Matthew's son explained that Amanda had been by his side the entire time and had been killed shortly before he blacked out.

The boy was now living in another state.

Kerry told Adam more then anything that Amanda had been killed. She might have had something to do with his kidnapping, since it was only shortly after her own, or she was forced into it and the guilt got to much.

Adam felt like he was passing through in a blur again.

They took the photographs as evidence and right before they walked out, Adam could tell Kerry felt sorry for him, and that she was suffering on the inside too.

"Take my advice…make sure your daughter is out of harms way, seems that Jigsaw came back for Amanda, and might come back for you too."

Walking out those words stuck Adam hard as he drove with Alison back to his apartment. Mrs. Sawyer had been watching Laddy downstairs. After picking her up Adam went to the kitchen sink and rolled up his sleeves, drawing a small bath for Laddy before she would be put down. Alison entered slowly rubbing her arms.

"You okay?"

Adam slowly shook his head.

Walking beside him she helped as they bathed the baby together in silence. An hour later the baby was fast asleep in the crib as Alison and Adam showered together. Standing in the tub with the warm beating beads of steaming hot water hitting their bare skin, Adam wrapped his arms around Alison's waist and leaned in softly kissing her shoulder blades. He wanted so badly to try and forget about this…but deep inside his mind different things crept.

Afterwards both went to his bedroom and had sex. Adam sat up as Alison slowly rose herself up and down on his lap, shutting her eyes and tilting her head towards the ceiling. Adam tried to relax as his hand took hold of the sheets underneath him…but his eyes kept opening and he kept looking at Laddy in the crib.

After they finished they both laid together in the darkness holding each other, Alison could tell something else was on his mind.

Looking up, Alison gently touched his face before sighing…she didn't even want to tell Adam in the first place.

"Adam?"

Adam looked down.

"I'm pregnant."

Adam took a second for it to hit him.

"What?"

"I'm pregnant…nearly three months."

Adam couldn't believe it. With everything going on this was the last thing he wanted to hear. Two women so far he had slept with had been knocked up.

"Why…why didn't you tell me?"

Alison shifted up a little to look in his eyes, calm as ever.

"I needed time to think, God knows we have a lot on our minds."

"So…what do you want to do?"

Adam for once wasn't angry…stunned a little, but not angry. He liked Alison and as strange as he sounded the words of hearing he got her pregnant didn't sound that bad. He loved Laddy with all his heart, and having another one as bad as an idea that might be…sounded like great news just at that moment.

"I'm going to get an abortion…I've thought this out."

Adam looked suspired.

"You wanna kill it?"

Alison sat up more, using the sheet to cover herself.

"I…I had one done with Larry before."

Adam looked at her.

"It was a few years ago…a baby boy, Larry always wanted a boy."

"What happened?"
"I was almost in my fifth month when we got the test results back…the baby was going to be born handicapped."

Adam felt stunned remembering how he asked Larry if he planned on having any other children.

"Larry took it pretty hard, I think that's what made the marriage fall apart."

"So now you want another one?"

"Adam…I really like you, but we have too much going on, I can see it in your eyes…it just isn't right."

Adam for once in his life was too tried to argue, looking down at his hands his eyes shifted to Larry, the one thing that meant the most to him in life…he had all ready been thinking of what he would do to protect her on the ride home, and now it seemed clearer then ever.

Looking at Alison's perfectly flat stomach he sighed before looking up at her.

"Okay then…what do you want me to do?"

"Next week I'm getting it done, can you go with me?"

Adam nodded.

"Sure…"

"Until then I don't think we should see each other…"

Adam nodded.

"I agree…go back home to your daughter."

Alison touched his face before leaning in and kissing him.

"If it was any other time I wouldn't even think twice…"

She whispered in his ear. Nodding he watched her dress before she smiled and left the apartment. Sitting there in shock Adam got out of bed pulling on a pair of sweats and picking Laddy up from the crib. Returning back to bed he held her and looked out the window and started to cry for the unborn baby that Alison was going to kill. He wanted it more then anything…but knew she was right.

Crying he then decided once and for all.

He was going to give Laddy up for adoption.
