Legal disclaimer. Regretfully I do not own the mentalist
The persecution had gone long enough. Jane and Lisbon were leading the patrol cars against Red John. It was a moment of truth for all of them, specially for Jane. Since he had promised Teresa not to kill him and let justice take care of him, he was specially nervous. Teresa still wasn't sure if he would resist the urge to kill him so she confiscated his guns. This persecution was the end of a neverending story.
How did they knew they were persecuting the right guy? Easy answer. Red John had been betrayed after they captured the last of his minions. It seemed Teresa could be scarier than Red John sometimes.
When they arrived to his house he was waiting inside his car and he began his scape. But he was reaching a dead end alley so he was forced to stop. The police surrounded the car and forced him out. He complied. He came out smiling like mischievous child who had been cought by his parents. He spoke.
"Took you long enough, didn't Mr. Jane?" He said mockingly. Blood rushed to Patrick's head but he didn't spoke.
"Put your hand in the air now!" Teresa ordered him. Red John ignored her and continued talking to Patrick.
"I must say Patrick. As your friend I'm disappointed. After all I always thought you were a man of your word. So why don't you kill me right now?" He said still trying to provoke the mentalist.
Cho Van Pelt and Rigsby echoed Teresa's orders and added. "Don't move!"
Patrick realized what he was trying to do and smiled as well managing to calm himself before answering. "I actually thought I would too. Really thought I would kill you when I had you within my reach. But now that i see you I clearly see it. You aren't worth ruining my life twice. I'm sorry but you'll have to pay for killing my family in prison."
Two agents handcuffed Red John and began taking him away. However he resisted and faced Patrick again. "So in the end you are just a coward" He said angrily. Patrick didn't bother to answer he just stared at him mockingly "And this is it" thought the mentalist to himself widening the grin on his face.
This time it was Red John's time to be furious. He managed to shake the agents off and charged towards Patrick but he was shot down before he even managed to touch it. His dead body fell to the alley's floor hard. Jane walked out towards the car with a grin on his face. When the members of his team looked at him in shock he just said "Oh my, that was a little violent."
Lisbon followed while the rest called the forensics team to pick up the corpse. "Jane wait. Where are you going?" She asked worried he might do something stupid. "Home" he just replied. "Get back here you" she demanded angrily. "Don't think you can walk away without at least talking about what just happened."
Just like he used Red John to kill that other serial killer last year he used the police to kill Red John and Lisbon was angry. "Red John is dead, that is what happened" he answered coldly.
"No! You used us Jane! You used your friends! That's what i'm mad about!" She responded angrily. Then again it wasn't the first time so. Why was she mad? Patrick felt he knew the answer but didn't want answer himself. Instead of replying to that undeniable truth he took an envelope from his pocket and handed it to Lisbon.
"Here this is my resignation. Take it and leave me alone"
The woman looked at him with tears falling from her eyes feeling totally betrayed. "So long Teresa" He said walking into the lively streets of Sacramento.
