A Flip of The Coin (ON HOLD)

Chapter 7- Zsasz

The minute I read the file on my next patient cause the normal tan color of my face to pale similar to a ghost. 

Zsasz was a true sociopath. He had no regard for huma life and a compulsive need to kill others in order to 'make the mark'. He thought he was saving people by killing them because he saw living as a disease. I was terrified for this interview. But as the guard slowly stuck his head in my office, informing me Zsasz was on his way, I tried my best to not show my fear. 

The guard securied Zsasz to the chair and walked outside and left me alone with him. I attempted to speak but before I did he said ''Hello, little lamb. You might be aware of my work. But I assure you, I am no sociopath. You shall know me as your savior.''

I gulped loudly before introducing myself as his new doctor. ''I would like to get to know you. What went through your mind while killing your most recent victums --the 20 woman from Gotham--'' He laughed like a maniac at my question and stated ''What's the point doctor? Everything is meaningless. The only thing that matters is the mark.''

I tried my best to stay calm and said ''Why does the mark mean so much Victor?''

''Because. My body is a temple to the people I save's memory. Would you like to see my work?''

I nodded and he tried his best to point to his chest. Of course he had a shirt on and he begged me if I would take it off for him. I blushed at the thought and I decided since he's been behaving I would. I grabbed scissors and cut off the shirt. Luckly he didn't try to grab me or the scissors. I stepped back and took a look at the man before me. He looked proud at his marks, which took up most of his body.

I just stared for a moment, realizing that each of these marks represented a dead person. 

I took a glance at the clock and decided that I would cut the session short, due to the fact that Zsasz made me uncomfortable. I hid the clock behind me and frowned at Zsasz, telling him time was up.

''Next session, I hope to be able to discuss your childhood. If you don't mind.'' and with that, I called the guards to take him away. I took a sigh of relief and sat down on my chair. I grabbed my last patient's file and realized it who it was.

My mind went blank and I ran outside my office to ask if I can have a patient change for today, which everyone denied. I calmly went back into my office and took my seat.

Better get ready then...
