A twisted game (Saw fanfiction)

Chapter 3

A/N I'm sorry if this chapter is bad, my depression has just been acting up really badly today, but I wanted to write a chapter anyway:/ by the way if you're wondering why I keep pointing out the time it's because In the movie Dr.Lawerence has until 6 to kill Adam and so it's kinda like a timer that Siren isn't aware of:)

The screech of rubber on asphalt was sickening, but what was worse, the fact that I played a hand in Adams potential doom. By now my eyes where bloodshot and puffy, my cheeks stained with dry tears, and all I could do was hope to not be too late.

As I stepped into the warehouse I slammed the door behind me. "Amanda!"

I began to wonder around trying to find the brunette, that was until I felt it. A sharp prick in the back of my neck. I felt the syringe poking out with my hand as my body gave way, slumping to the floor. "Please.." The only word I could manage, but it still came out only as a whisper.

~~~ Flashback ~~~~

"This is nice." Adam whispered gently into my hair. We had been in bed all morning, just cuddling. It was perfect.

"It really is." My eyes met his and I felt my heart skip a beat as he stared at me, almost as though he could see right through me, but yet he didn't care. I know that'll never be true though. No one can love someone like me once they know what I truly do.

I could feel the sigh escape my lips before I went on, "I wanna stay like this forever." A smile danced on my lips as my hands tangled with the brunettes.

"I'm sorry baby, but I got work." He seemed reluctant though. Almost as though only this moment mattered and nothing else would ever amount.

I can't say I disagreed.

"I love you Adam." Even though I had spoken those words over and over again to him, my voice still trembled.

"I love you too Siren." Unlike mine, his voice was even and you could not only hear, but feel the raw emotion. Supposedly after a couple months of dating butterflies were a thing of the past, but at that moment my entire stomach came alive. I could feel it doing back flips just from hearing him say my name.

Growing up I never knew what true love was. My dad and mom loved each other, but I was never around to see. Unlike Gideon I wasn't planned, therefore I was marked a disappointment. They kept me under the radar... I wouldn't be surprised if I didn't even have a birth certificate. My parents weren't cruel, they never once laid a hand on me, but my dad was always distant. My mom somewhat would show she cared, but even than that wasn't much..

When I first found out what my father was doing, I was horrified, but I saw it as a opportunity. A opportunity to get closer with my dad, but that didn't work. He only cares for Amanda.

Her trap was nothing.

Even though I never knew what true love was supposed to be growing up, Adam had taught me. He showed me that even a psychotic kidnapper could not only fall in love, but be loved.

~~~ Flashback over ~~~

My head throbbed with such a force I almost fainted upon waking up.

I must have hit it when I fell to the ground. My vision was still adjusting, but I could feel the rope binding my hands and feet to a metal chair. In the corner sat Amanda.

Most would be screaming and thrashing to get out, but I knew better than that. Amanda didn't know anything about appreciating life though. She was forced to murder someone. That's it. To some that'd sound horrific and grotesque, but some of the traps I've been put in, I still can't sleep some nights thinking about them.

~~~ Flash back ~~~

The feeling of cold metal around my throat was the first thing I felt. My eyes hadn't even opened yet when I realized what was going on.

The small tv in the corner of the dank room turned on.

"Hello Siren I want to play a game. You're my only daughter, and you swear up and down that your appreciation to life is rooted deep, but yet you still smoke cigarettes and take harmful drugs. You say you appreciate life, but the cuts on your body prove otherwise. You've probably already realized what trap you're in. In case not, this machine is what I prefer to call the slicer. When this video turns off you will have 3 minutes to get across the room and unlock the machine around your waist, if you do not make it in time than the two blades will slice through you're intestines. Live or die Siren. Make your choice."

Around my midsection sat a contraption of two metal blades on either side. There was only one way to get across the room though. In front of me sat a collection a knives. They went from my shoulders, stopping only in a small section so the machine could get through, down to my mid thigh. The metal around my neck had come off as soon as the video started. It must've only been there to keep me standing whilst I was still drugged.

My eyes quickly went to the timer, two minutes and 30 seconds left.  I inhaled a deep breath and ran through the knives, leaving a stinging feeling in each and every cut, but I simply continued to the key. One more glance at the timer showed I had a little over a minute left.

I shoved the key in and threw down the deadly trap on the grimy ground. A door to my left opened, and in walked my dad.

"Congratulations Siren. So far you've been able to survive three games, but is the one that'll finally show you to appreciate your life?" His raspy voice spoke. My head felt like a bobble head as I nodded up and down, almost as though my life depended on it.

In a way though, it did.

~~~ Flashback over ~~~

Without a clear reason why though, my voice let out a strangled cry, "ADAM?! Amanda! Why is he there?!" Sobs racked my body as my mind turned to what Adam might be going through. I even began to hyperventilate, it was like no matter how deep I breathed, my lungs still burned like someone had lit them on fire, I couldn't take a proper breath of oxygen.

Amanda looked up and stared her deep abyss of brown eyes into my grey ones. For a second I felt like I could see pity flash on her face, but just as quickly as I saw it, it was gone.

"Why?!" My throat felt like it might start bleeding at any moment it hurt so bad, but I still continued to raise the pitch of my screams.

"I'm sorry Siren, but it's the rules. You can't interfere with a players game." With those 2 heart shattering sentences she left. The door slamming behind her.

I thrashed in my seat, Adam needs me! It to no avail though. Instead it seemed to knock out the remaining oxygen left in me and I finally began to pass out from exhaustion.

"Why?" Was the last thought my throbbing head could sustain as I fell asleep from exhaustion.
