"Ow..." Damian slowly opened his eyes, everything blurry. "What..." His vision came into focus, and his eyes widened. He was standing on a platform raised roughly 3 feet in a small, grimy room. The walls were an ugly grey, as was the floor and ceiling. Damian tried to turn around, but something stopped him from doing so. It was at that moment that he realised he felt numb. There wasn't any feeling, just... numbness.

Damian tried to lift his hand to his jaw, but something restrained him. He slowly looked down and his eyes widened when he saw what looked like a hook through the palm of his hand, splitting the skin. Damian quickly looked to his other hand and saw that the same thing was there. He opened his mouth to yell out, but something prevented him from doing so, and he saw some sort of black blur where his mouth was.

A door opened down at ground level, and a slim figure in a pig mask walked into the room. "Hello... Damian..." The voice was female, making Damian narrow his eyes in confusion. "You may be wondering where you are..." The female suddenly grasped the pig mask and pulled it off, revealing red lipstick and brunette hair tied into a ponytail. "Let me tell you..."

"Who are you!" Damian slurred, unable to move his mouth properly to form the words.

"Interrupting is rude, didn't you know that?" The woman said, smirking at Damian. "But, since you asked, my name is Amanda Young. But enough about me, Damian. It appears you are in a bit of a problem" Amanda then held something up to Damian's face. It was a mirror.

Damian's eyes widened in fear and he struggled, but only the rattling of chains was heard. Blood was across his face, but the most worrying factor was the large hoop straight through his jaw, going round through his mouth.

"I once tried this with someone else you know." Amanda said. "It was a man who, despite given chances, always went to prison. I believe his name was Troy. Well, he failed his test. What about you, Damian? Will you fail yours? The rules are very simple to understand, you simply have to get the hooks out of your hands, and the hoop around your jaw. Have fun." At that, Amanda turned and exited the room.

"Wait!" Damian tried to call out. He looked around wildly, and tried pulling a hand of the hook slowly, but intense pain filled his body. "Fuck!"

LINE BREAK

Conner coughed, and opened his eyes, looking around. His eyebrows arched in confusion, one moment he was put to sleep and now, he was in a chair? Conner stared at the simple metal chair he was sitting on. It was smooth and clean, but his arms were attacked to the arms of the chair, secured by metal cuffs. Conner felt something in his left hand, and looking down saw a small silver key. He then looked to his right hand, but nothing was in it. However, he realised that half of the right arm of the chair had been cut away, and a set of spikes stuck up near his right palm. In the middle of these spikes was a large button, but the spikes were a good two inches long.

Finally, Conner looked to his sides in bemusement, where two large boxes extended from the roof, and extending from the boxes seemed to be saw blades.

Suddenly, a click was heard, and then a sharp crackling sound filled the room.

LINE BREAK

In another room, this time larger than Conner's, Leslie awoke, blinking. He looked around wildly, the room dark. "Hello?" He called out, nervously. "Hello!" he repeated.

Suddenly, the lights clicked on, and Leslie covered his eyes in pain. Once he had gotten used to it, he looked around the room. His left foot was chained onto a glass box, which Leslie was standing on. Some sort of object was underneath the glass, but he couldn't figure out what it was. Straight in front of Leslie was a metal stand with two large buttons, one red, one green.

But most strange of all, was some sort of gridded metal cage in the middle of the room, roughly 10 metres away. It was around 10 foot in each direction, and inside was a shadowy figure hanging from chains from the roof.

With a jolt, Leslie realised it was Victor, apparently still unconscious. "Victor? Victor, can you hear me?"

There was no response, except a click was heard, and a sharp crackling sound followed.

LINE BREAK

"Wha..." Jeffrey sat up, his eyes adjusting to the dim room. His cowboy had was still on his head, albeit skewed. He adjusted it and looked around. "Where th' hell am I?"

"Jeffrey?"

"Thebes? Is that you?" Jeffrey called out loudly. He was known for addressing most people by their last names.

"Yeah, yeah it is. I don't suppose your near a wall, are you?" Alex asked out from the darkness.

Jeffrey slowly stood up, and felt around, his palms hitting a solid wall. "Yes, I'm by a wall."

"Is there a light switch or something?"

Jeffrey shrugged in the darkness, and felt around again. Suddenly a cord hit his hand, and Jeffrey instinctively pulled it.

Light flooded the room, revealed Alex covering his eyes.

"Wha?" Another voice, this time female.

Alex's eyes adjusted and he saw Riley slouched against the wall, rubbing her eyes. "Are you okay, Riley?"

"I... I think so..." Riley answered, looking around the room.

"Finally." Everyone turned to the corner of the room, where Rain had her ear to the wall. "I've been waiting for you to wake up."

"Where are we?" Alex asked.

"Somewhere." Rain answered, moving towards a door and again, holding her ear against it.

"One of Jigsaw's game, most likely, son." Jeffrey said, stretching his arms and looking around the room. It was musty, and the light wasn't actually that light once their eyes had adjusted. It was a grey room, which was empty except for a thin window in the wall and the door.

"Do we go through the door?" Riley asked, standing up.

"Not yet... I believe something else will happen first, from what I read in William's books, Jigsaw sends a message first." Rain said.

As if on cue, a click was heard, and a sharp crackling sound sounded.

LINE BREAK

"Max? Max?" Mila called out, stumbling blindly in the darkness. "Max?"

"Mila?" came a faint reply. "Is that you?"

"Max!" Mila cried out with relief, suddenly hitting a wall. "Where are we?"

"I don't know. Last thing I remembered was you getting hit by the gas."

"Are you injured?" Mila called out nervously.

"Not that I know of." Max replied. "What about you?"

"I'm fine." Mila replied. "I just want to know where we are."

"I'm guessing Jigsaw caught us then." Max said, sounding muffled.

"I want to know why it's so dark though. Could it hurt to have some lights?"

"Umm... Mila..."

"What?"

"It's not dark, it's as bright as day. I can see you opposite a glass window. You're eyes are shut though."

"What?" Mila shook her head, and tried to open her eyes, but found it resisting. She hadn't realised they were close. Mila started to panic, her eyes widening. "Is there anything on my eyes, what's happening?

Instead of a reply, a click was heard, and then a sharp crackling sound.

LINE BREAK

"Are you okay?"

Tally opened her eyes and looked around, feeling a bit chilly. They were outside, in the corner of an electric fence. Zeke stood by the fence, crossing his arms. "W-what?" Tally shook her head and narrowed her eyes at Zeke's thoughts. "The others were captured? But you saved me? One, why did you save me, and two, how did you not get knocked out?"

"I..."

"So, you sealed Ice over yourself and pretended to fall unconscious, and then went over to me because I was the youngest, and I remind you slightly of a younger version of a girl called Tanzi."Tally shook her head. "Just great."

"N-no, I..." Zeke shook his head. "It's not because you look like T-Tanzi... which you do... but I figured you're the smartest. You just seem like it."

"Hah!" Tally shook her head. "I may be smart; the one you wanted was Rain. She's a genius, just doesn't like admitting it. Let's go, might as well see what is going on."

So, we have Damian and Conner in their own traps, Leslie and Victor together, Max and Mila together, Jeffrey, Riley, Rain and Alex together, and finally Tally and Zeke not actually caught. But what of the situations of Paige and William? I'll get to them later. And yes, a death is looming, but whose? Tapes are next time! Woo! See you then!.
