Killer in Training <Mark Hoffman X Reader Saw Fanfiction>

New and Improved

You sat quietly at your desk clicking away at your keyboard and answering phone calls with your Bluetooth device. You had answered each call with a smile and willingness to help. Working in insurance is an easy gig, you couldn't help it but to smile about how thankful you are to not have messed this up. It has been 4 days since your encounter with John and Amanda, within these 4 days you haven't had a drink or brawl, you've been on time to work sober and starting to gain attention of the higher bosses. You began socializing more at the office and getting to know people, it felt refreshing to not by yourself and your thoughts. Your day dream was interrupted by a text from Amanda

Y/N, meet us by the warehouse later today. A new game is about to begin and John has big plans for you.

No problem Amanda. See you guys soon.

You responded and shut your phone, quickly finishing up your work for the day and powering down your computer. You began packing up your things when you were approached by your supervisor and what looked like a detective officer ?

"Y/N, this is Detective Hoffman" he introduced you to the detective "Feel free to take the day off tomorrow" he smiled awkwardly and walked away.

"Sorry to bother you at your place of work, but we have some questions to ask regarding your recent run in with Jigsaw, as a survivor we must touch base since not many make it out."

"Of course detective." You grabbed your bag "what would you like to know?" You smiled as He motioned his head at the door as he started to walk out and you followed him out.

"I must say I am impressed" he snickered as we walked to the parking lot "I want to know how you made it out, the device we found looked intimidating" he looked down at his pad waiting for you to speak.

"Well detective, I woke up in the device and a tape began to play sharing the rules. I simply followed instructions and made it out of the game"  you explained

"And what happened after?" He snarked

"I walked out of the warehouse and stumbled home" you lied "there was nothing holding me there, I was free to go." You crossed your arms as Hoffman took his notes.

"And that was enough to turn your life around" he said looking you up and down "it says here you were an avid drinker and frequently kicked out of bars for fighting"

"That's right, what are you getting at detective?" You raised your eyebrow.

"Nothing at all" he closed his pad and stuffed it away in his coat pocket "I'll be in touch if I need anything else" he turned away and walked away, got in his car, and drove off.

That was... strange? You thought as you tussled around in your bag to find my car keys. You grabbed them quickly and sat in the car before driving off. The ride was quiet and you couldn't shake the thought of the detective, you started to worry he was onto something because he knows something. You shook the thought as you approached the hideout, you snuck in undetected and saw Amanda and John infront of a model as well as blueprints.

"Ah Y/N, thank you for arriving promptly. I have your next assignment." He pointed down to the model of an industrial looking bathroom and two dolls chained to the pipes. 

"I'm taking care of Adam, And John and the other apprentice will be getting the doctor" She pointed to the doll towards the bathroom followed by the one by the door. "Your job is to find and convince Zep to play along, it shouldn't be too hard" she handed you his tape recorder. "He's an orderly at the hospital John was staying at, it shouldn't be to hard to get him on our side" she smiled.

"Will do." You were about to turn away when John grabbed your shoulder

"take this to Zep as well." John handed you a gun and a fast acting poison and sent you off. You stopped off at your car and grabbed some additional supplies.

You threw on a black hoodie and put the hood up, hiding the gun and tape recorder. You made yourway to the hospital, looking around for Zep. You peeked my head into the men's locker room where Zep was cleaning up for the day and packing up.

"Hello Zep" you approached him with your hands in your pockets.

"I'm sorry you can't be in here? What do you want?" He smiled awkwardly.

" I want to play a game"  you placed the tape recorder and gun on the bench and hit play. You readied the poison, and as Zep approached the gun you jabbed it into his neck as the tape began to explain the poisonous nature of what I just injected him with.  He looked at you gasping as the tape ended. "live or die Zep" you walked out of the locker room and out to the parking lot to watch; The gun was in his hand as he rushed out and to his car. You smiled and started your car, headed back to Jigsaw.

You carefully pulled out of your parking spot tailing Zep to ensure he was en route to the game; he was so you turned off and made your way to the hideout. You approached the building and headed in.

"Nice job killer." Amanda joked as you walked through the door. "Common, you're going to want to see this." She motioned you to follow her throughout the house and down in the tunnels under the house. You were amazed at how they were constructed and spread out along multiple properties and buildings.

"What's this place.?" You asked as you both approached a big brown door.

"The game." She smiled as she opened the door to a big industrial bathroom.

Your eyes widened at what you saw, what is he doing here? And why is he setting up the trap.
