//------------------------------// // The discovery // Story: Jigsaw's new game // by Thehappypuppet //------------------------------// What was in reality only an hour seemed to be an eternity for the two men taking part in the advanced medical procedure. At the end of it, both of them were very curious to see what the results of the CT scan would be. The screen in front of the Tyler lit up with the information from the machine. "Okay the results of your scan have just came in. Let's see if you have had any major changes in your condition." Tyler opened up a picture of John's body. Amazement and shock filled his eyes when he saw the results. Where there should have been a malignant tumor in his patient's brain was just healthy brain tissue. "Is everything alright." John was a little nervous to see the look on the surgeons face. "Um, you might want to see this." Jigsaw Stepped up next to the monitor "I don't know how it's possible, but your tumor has seemed to be completely removed from your system." He still was flabbergasted by what he saw. He looked and was almost just as surprised to see that his patients face showed no joy that he wasn't going to die. "By all means I hope I don't disrespect you but shouldn't you be at least a little happy that you aren't terminal." Tyler immediately regretted those words as he was caught in the icy stare of Jigsaw. The newly healthy serial killer walked up closer to him. He stared into his eyes and told him something that chilled him to the bone. "Doctor, you don't know do you. I already have died in a way, but I have been reborn." And with that he went out to the forest. "Where are you going?" "I'm going to see if there are any nearby towns." John replied without even turning around to face him. Billy sat on the table still thinking about his current status. so this is what it's like to be alive. I guess John knew what he was talking about. Everyone he'd seen tested rightfully deserved what they got. He wished he had been conscious to see them in pain and pay for their sins. The puppet grabbed a wrist blade and got off the table he was placed on and went out of the tent. Cautiously, Billy looked around to see if anyone was looking, he had a very good idea of what would happen if he was spotted. When he got out of the tent he realized that he had no Idea of what to do. i can't just walk up to John and say "hello, I'm alive now what do you need me to do?" He decided to just figure it out when he meet the famed genius. Silently, the ventriloquist dummy walked into the forest hoping to find answers. The bright sun warmed Pinkie Pie's smiling form as she bounced through the forest trail humming a song. She was walking back from a big party she planned in Canterlot. Pinkie decided not to take the train and instead wanted to get some exercise. Even though she had been given some warnings about unusual activity in the forest, she wasn't expecting anything to attack her. Twilight asked pinkie if she could return before it got dark. Silly Twi, nothing out here will try to eat me. She had no idea what she was about to encounter. John walked through the the thicket of plant life desperate on find the source of the buzzing. The sound was definitely feminine by nature. He was just going to see if the girl knew any directions of how to get back to ANY civilization. He walked through the last thicket of trees and stood slack jaw at the creature that stood before him. The being information of him was definitely an equine. She had a Cotten candy pink body with a curly pink mane. Both souls stared at each other for an immeasurable amount of time. Finally the pink pony broke the silence. "Oh my gosh a REAL ALIEN." It spoke well it jumped up and down with ease. "I'm Pinkie Pie,What is your name? What do aliens like to eat? Can you understand me? Are you going to eat me? Are there more aliens here? Are you a boy or girl?" John was to shocked to answer the questions he was being bombarded with. Slowly, he reached into his pocket for a needle. "Okay, enough with my questions, did you want to ask me anything?" Jigsaw was very surprised that she stopped talking and that he wouldn't have to knock her out. "My name of no concern to you, whatever you are." He replied with as calmly as he could. "Aww, come on tell me your name. "No." "Please tell me. Pretty please with sprinkles on top." "Sure, I'll tell you my name if you can answer a few questions. Don't worry, I will answer your questions truthfully if you do the same for me." Hopefully he would get an idea of what was going on "Okie dokie Lokie." "Where am I?" He said finally being able to ask the question he had since he woke up this morning. "Your in Equestria, on the outskirts of Ponyville to be exact. Pony vile is where I live and it just straight along this road, look you can see it waaaay over there." Sure enough the outline of a small town was visible in the distance. "What are you exactly." The pink mare giggled at his question "Silly filly, I am an earth pony." Weird that her race was an earth pony if she wasn't from his world. "Wait, so there are other types of ponies?" John was curious to learn as much information as he could. "Duh, of corse there are. There's unicorns like my friends Rarity and twilight. They can use magic from their horns and to all sortsa cool things. Wait wait! I almost forgot that Twilights an alicorn now silly me. Then there are winged ponies called Pegasi. Two of my friends Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash are both Pegasus. Now can I ask you a few questions?" "That seems fair." John decided to give her the truth, the exact truth. "Who are you?" She said, still smiling. John knew just how to answer her. "You can call me jigsaw." "So jigsaw," she put an extra emphasis in the name. "What do you do?" This was the last question that jigsaw hoped to here, but he was still ready. "I like to play games." The answer was technically correct. "Wow, me too! Games are so much fun. Almost as fun as partying, baking, eating, and doing all three at once." Jigsaw's smile turned to a frown. eating? Partying? These were things he tested people for. Maybe he had time to help the poor mare. no this is stupid, she isn't even human. But maybe it would be best for her. Again, he reached into his pocket for his sedative drug. Pinkie went on about "parties" this and "cupcakes" that. With lightning fast reflexes he plunged the needle into the pink ponies shoulder. "Ouchie! What was that fo..." Pinkie felt an immense wave of drowsiness fall upon her she tried to say somthing but stumbled to the ground, unconscious. Jigsaw was about to pick her up when he noticed something in front of him. He couldn't believe what he was looking at. "Billy?" It took john a lot of strength not to pass out from the surprise of everything going on. Today just keeps on greeting weirder and weirder. "John, there's nothing else I can say except that I'm alive." The puppets voice sounded exactly like it did on the recordings that jigsaw gave him to say. "what is that." Billy gestured towards the unconscious pink mass lying in between them. "From what she told me she is an earth pony, though I'm not sure what earth she is talking about." Why was he having a conversation with is puppet, the one he uses to talk for him? "How long have you been able to talk? "Since this morning, but I have vivid memories of my past. Don't worry John, I still wish to help you test people,or in this case ponies. It may take the jigsaw killer time to find his way back to humanity. So in the meantime he decided he should try to help all the lost souls in Equestria, one pony at a time. John knelt down and picked up the sleeping pony "Let the games begin."
