Soft footsteps patted on the marble ground of the office. A knife scratched against a wooden desk that was still outside of the door. Victor Zsasz slowly approached the door and knocked gently on it. Hello, little piggys, are you in there? His voice was soft and high-pitched. He rubbed his free hand on the door as if trying to feel the energy of what was inside of the office. He placed his ear on the door and faintly heard whimpers from the females in the room. He smiled to himself. I hear the little piggys. Let me in! His smiled faded turning into an expression of anger. He slammed his hand on the door trying to budge the door open. ---- On the other side, Lucius looked over to his secretary who was whimpering in fear. He walked over to her and placed his hand on her shoulder. Hey, look at me. Look at me, he said in a gentle voice. She looked up at him with tear running down from her eyes. He smiled at her. Youre going to be ok. Were going to be ok. He took her into his arms and started to cradle her. Phillip Kane looked over to him and rolled his eyes. Lucius, stop that. We need you to help with the door. If this maniac hits it any harder, he could get inside. Lucius looked up at Philip and nodded. He looked back at the woman. Stay here, ok? He smiled at her and walked back to the door. He pushed up against the desk with Philip by his side as Zsasz continued to slam against the door. Philip looked over to Lucius and softly shook his head. Why try to comfort her? You know as well as I do that were not going to make it. Lucius looked over to him with an angered expression on his face. I comfort her because unlike you I have faith someone is going to save us. Philip scoffed but kept pushing against the desk trying to keep the door closed. ---- Outside, Gordon and Bullock watched as they saw the SWAT team arrive from GCPD. They saw multiple men step out and finally saw Braden step out of the truck. Braden was a tall, clean cut man with a military haircut. He walked over to Gordon and Bullock slightly chuckling to himself. Well, it seems that I have to save the day. You two can stay back while I kill this son of a bitch. He walked away from them and back to his men. Gordon looked over at Harvey and shook his head. I cant let him cause a massacre. Bullock slid his hands in his own pockets. What are you going to do? Gordon looked at the building and back to Braden. He exhaled, Fuck it. He pulled out his gun and ran into the building. Bullock watched on seeing his partner running into a suicide mission scenario. Jim, Jim get back here. ----- Zsasz finally slammed his way into the room and hopped over the table. He saw Philip and Lucius back away. He also noticed three other men in suits and the frightened secretary. He smiled at her and walked closer to her. Whats wrong dear? Im not here to hurt you. Im here to free you from this prison. You will be able to ascend to where you truly deserve to be. One of the men tried to rush him, but Zsasz was too quick and sliced the mans throat. Zsasz smiled noticing the blood on his knife. He inhaled deeply. Yes, a soul has been freed. He cleaned his knife on the mans suit and carved a tally mark on his stomach. He looked back at the woman. Are you ready?
