Disclaimer: I don't own SAW, or the Joker
Chapter 8
John and his family got home, and John and Amanda put Jenny to bed. Then they sat down in the living room and turned on the TV. As they were looking through the channels, they came across the news and heard the reporter say something that shocked both of them.
"The body of the mayor and two other people were found dumped in an ally today. The FBI has not yet released any details about the case, but some sources say that the Joker was involved. Many people are running scared, and have lost faith in the police." John shut the T.V. off.
"I can't believe this happened." John said furiously.
"You had to pick between our daughter or the Joker, and in the end you made the right choice." Amanda told him. "And in the end, I know you will catch him, you just have to keep trying."
John got up and went into his hide out. He then put on his mask and cloak and left. The Joker murders were reminding him of why he became Jigsaw.
Flashback
"Mommy, mommy where are you?" The eleven year old John screamed. He looked around the house frantically. As he went the upstairs, he saw his mom's bedroom door half open. He slowly opened the rest of the door. As the door got wider and wider, he noticed that there was some blood on the floor of the room. When he opened the door all the way he was terrified. On the bed was his mother with her head blown off, a gun in one hand and a letter in the other. John scarcely entered the room. He went over to the note his mother's life less corps held and opened it and started to read it. It said:
My dearest son John
My heart breaks in writing you this note, but this is the only way you can find out the truth. The truth is I can no longer take living life. You may think you are the cause, but you were a blessing from god. But sometime not even those work. I've had chronic depression ever since that night I got the news that your father died serving his country during Vietnam. I then found out I was pregnant with you and I thought "I will be okay now". But not even the happiest of thing lasts forever. I can understand if you are sad, but please never give up on people who need help.
Sincerely now and forever John
You're Mother
