Jason entered inside the interrogation room. Hoffman was inside, and he looked up at Jason.
Hoffman- "I've been in here for 3 hours what is it."
Jason slammed a stack of files on the table.
Jason- "What the fuck are you planning!"
Hoffman- "Nothing, I'm right here."
Jason tightened the cuffs on Hoffman.
Jason- "BULLSHIT! Bobby Dagen is missing from the hospital, Lawrence is missing, and a woman is DEAD because of you."
Jason was furious. He wanted vengeance for his son's death, but how could he do it when this man was locked up in a prison cell? Lawrence was probably out of the country by now, and Bobby Dagen was most likely dead. He had to make something right, if anything in this situation.
Hoffman- "Because of me?"
He grinned, and shook his head while laughing.
Hoffman- "Who fired that gun at her?"
Jason- "IT WAS YOUR FUCKING PLAN!"
Jason circled around Hoffman nonstop. He needed to get something out of him this instance.
Hoffman- "You want something out of me? Well I'll give you this. Lawrence isn't my apprentice."
Jason stopped Circling Hoffman. He took a seat across from him.
Jason- "What did you say?"
Hoffman- "He was the old man's apprentice. I just needed him to get what I want."
Jason- "Which is?"
Hoffman- "You'll see."
He yawned, and Jason left the interrogation room. Fisk was waiting for him.
Fisk- "So?"
Jason- "We need to find Lawrence, and fast. If I'm correct, he is endanger of dying. We need him."
Fisk- "I found something you may want to see…"
He showed Hoffman a picture of a man in a gasmask, with spikes on it.
Fisk- "It's the pendulum killer, the one that killed Hoffman's parents. I remember it like it was yesterday. The entire place was a damn massacre…they were brutally slaughtered. We never caught the guy, and this picture here was just left on my doorstep this morning."
Jason- "You think…"
Fisk-"That Hoffman may have recruited the same person that killed his parents to be his apprentice? Maybe."
Fisk had an idea of who the real apprentice was, it was most likely someone in Law enforcement. Jason? Maybe.
A female, Sarah, came into the room.
Sarah- "Guys, we have a track on Lawrence Gordons cell phone."
Jason grabbed his jacket, and Fisk did the same.
Jason- "Time to end this."
Jason and Fisk didn't know it, but the next day, they would finally get to meet the pendulum killer.
Meanwhile, downtown, there was a meeting with the survivors of Jigsaw. All of them sat in a circle.
Simone- "Bobby never was a survivor…"
Tara- "Why would he lie to us?"
Simone- "Because he was fucking using us!"
Tara- "You don't know that."
Simone- "I do, and if anyone says otherwise then they're stupid."
Simone stood up, and looked at all the survivors.
Simone- "Now that Mr. Motivational speaker is gone, I want to say something. We're all here because we did something bad. I think we all know that, what did everyone here do?"
Mallick raised his hand.
Mallick- "I…I killed 8 people by burning down a building."
He faced downward after he said those words.
Shelby- "I had scammed people out of Health Insurance…"
Morgan- "I beat my daughter…"
Simone sighed, a sigh of relief.
Simone- "See! We all have done bad things, at least most of us, but does that mean that we need to be taught a lesson by some psycho maniac? I don't know about all of you, but I don't need someone to tell me how to live my life."
Brent- "What do you mean?"
Jeff, in the back corner, got up.
Jeff- "She's right. This is my first meeting, and I need to say that I am grateful for what Jigsaw has done, and it's changed my perspective on my life. But do I need something like that to change me? No. It didn't need to happen, because I am who I am. And no one can change that."
Everyone was silent. Each of the survivors stood up in unison.
Brit- "I agree with them."
She started to clap, and so did the other survivors. Simone smiled.
Simone- "We don't need these damn meetings to get over something this, because we are strong!"
Everyone started to converse silently with each other. Mallick and Brit faced each other.
Mallick- "I…"
Brit- "I'm sorry I never came to visit you at the hospital."
Mallick- "I don't care, I just wanted to talk to you again."
She hugged Mallick, and he hugged her back. Two people, who had come out of something so horrible, had managed to make something positive out of it.
Emily and Shelby faced each other.
Shelby- "We haven't talked since then."
Emily- "I know…I didn't know what to say."
Shelby- "Well you can say it now."
Both of them smiled, and a tear came down from Shelby's face. She started to cry. Simone walked outside from the group, and took out her cell phone. She dialed a number, and a tear went down her eye.
Simone- "Mom? Hey…can I come visit you sometime this week?"
Downtown at the police station, Hoffman stood waiting in the interrogation room, with handcuffs on. Lamina was guarding him with an MP5.
Hoffman- "Having fun?"
Lamina- "Plenty."
Hoffman yawned, and stretched his arms. He put them behind him. He twisted one of his arms backwards, and cringed from the pain.
Hoffman- "Did you enjoy it when I killed Rigg?"
Lamina- "What did you say to me?
Hoffman twisted the bone of his left hand. He cringed, and took it out from the handcuff.
Hoffman- "I said, did you enjoy it as Rigg got shot in the gut? Or at least hearing about it?"
Lamina- "Rigg was my best friend."
Hoffman- "And I killed him!"
He smiled. Lamina ran toward Hoffman.
Lamina- "That's it you piece of shit."
Hoffman twisted back, grabbed Lamina by the neck, took his MP5, and shot Lamina in the stomach. Lamina tried to balance, but he fell on the ground. He picked up Laminas MP5. He exited the interrogation room. He shot the first Police Officer on sight, and he moved through. He held up the MP5 to the rest of the people in the department. He fired off the entire clip. Rounds went into everyone, all the workers at their desks, dead. Behind Hoffman, someone tried to shoot him in the head. Hoffman did a 360 spin and shot the cop in the head. A cop fired at him, and he ducked behind a desk. He shot the cop in the face, and he fell on the ground, dead. Hoffman staggered out of the police station. In front, a large black van picked him up.
Hoffman- "Good timing eh?"
He laughed as the Van drove away into the distance.
At Jason's house, Angela sat down at the TV. A lonely Saturday night, she sat down eating a bowl of cereal. She missed Jason. Upstairs, a shadow slowly descended down the steps. Angela turned around, but before she could, a rag of chloroform was put on her face. Hoffman looked into her eyes as she tried to scream.
Hoffman- "Shhh…."
Downtown, Lawrence walked into a shop of an old friend named Dom. Dom saw Lawrence.
Dom- "Lawrence my man, what can I do for you?"
Lawrence- "I need some supplies, if a cop pasts by and asks you what it's for give him a fake name."
Dom- "I don't know..."
Lawrence- "Please. Many people will die if you don't do this."
Dom sighed.
Dom- "What is it?"
Lawrence leaned over and whispered a list of supplies into Doms ear.
(Tell me what you guys think. Tried to make this a great chapter. Next one should be Lawrence, Jason, Fisk, and another trap with Matthew. The story is moving along pretty fast, and I think you can excpect this done by...chapter 15.)
