Chapter 11
So, I told you this was going to be fast (well, not the translation^^). Here's the 11th chapter. Have fun reading!
'Mr. Jane' Carina greeted her visitor cheerfully and let him in. 'Why are you here again?'
'I have a few questions for you and Sabrina' he explained and followed the blonde woman to the living room. Sabrina lay on the couch and was just telling her friend Franzi a joke. Franzi laughed but kept silence when she saw Jane on the doorstep. Sabrina turned around and smiled at the blond counselor. 'Patrick' she greeted him and sat up. 'Long time not seen.'
'That's true' he mentioned and nodded to the unknown woman. 'Hello, my name's Patrick Jane.'
Franziska nodded with a serious face: 'Franziska Namfohn.'
'You all live here together?' Jane asked surprised when the three women stood up in front of him.
Sabrina nodded and stepped forward: 'Yeah, we're all good friends. Shall we go to the kitchen?'
Jane looked into her eyes with his dreamy glance and nodded. This woman drove him crazy. What the hell fascinated him so much?
When the phone rang, Franzi ran quickly to the station and took along the call.
'Yeah?'
'Hey, here's Linda. How are you?'
'Quite okay, I guess. Hold on a moment.' Franzi looked over to Jane who followed Sabrina into the kitchen like a hungry dog. Then, she walked over to her own room and continued talking: 'Perhaps we do have a problem.'
'What do you mean?'
'We've got a dog here.'
'Can you specify this?'
'A certain Patrick Jane is here. He's working for police and his reputation says that he can solve every case.'
'Okay, and…?'
'He in our house at the moment.'
'He…what?'
'I don't know why he came here now because I wasn't here when he visited us for the first time.'
'How do you mean it with first time? He's here again? Why?'
'Caro told me that Jane and a certain Agent Lisbon already were here this noon and searched her.'
'Okay, and what happened?'
'Well, they didn't actually speak with Caro. He was more interested in Sabrina.'
'Okay, stay calm. Perhaps he has no idea. Just stay calm and pretend not to know anything.'
'Yes, but I think there's another problem.'
'Which one?'
'Sabrina likes that guy, Caro told me and she seems to like him, too.'
'Then get Sabrina under control. She shouldn't forget how dangerous close he could come.'
'Ja, okay.'
'Good.'
'I'm gonna have a look what they're talking about.'
'Make it so. See you.'
Sabrina, Caro and Jane sat in the kitchen and drank tea together. When Franzi entered, Jane looked up disappointed. She made him have this feeling, too…
'Miss Makreer, may I know why you lied to us?'
Caro looked confused. 'Why did I lie to you?'
'Oh, come on. You've rented this car and you cannot proof otherwise. But why do you lie to me? It's a nice car, nothing to be ashamed of.'
'Mr. Jane, I have no idea what you're talking about (well, then I imagined Caro saying this with a cup of tea in the hand and had to laugh for a few minutes…that's why the translation needs so long^^)' she answered relaxed and Jane had to determine that she wouldn't change her statement that fast. She was stubborn.
'Well, my colleagues should occupy with this' he responded smilingly and side-looked over to Sabrina, who seemed to be a bit lost in thoughts. 'What about you, Miss…Sabrina? You still haven't told me your last name. Perhaps you keep this a secret?'
Sabrina smiled relaxed. 'Perhaps I'm gonna tell you my little secret' she answered alluringly.
'I'd like that.'
Suddenly, Sabrina looked to Caro and Franzi. They understood immediately but punished her with evil glances that she should be careful. But both went out of the kitchen. Jane was surprised by that behavior. He noticed the glance of Sabrina but they seemed to understand each other without words, very surprising. When he turned around again, Sabrina sat next to him and looked at him intensively with her brown eyes.
'Why don't we start with getting to know each other before I tell you all my little dirty secrets?' she proposed and dug deeper into his eyes. He raised an eyebrow in surprise and nodded hesitatingly: 'Great. You start.'
'No, you start.'
'What do you want to know?'
'How did you become counselor?' she asked and leaned back on her chair.
'A long story' Jane answered. He didn't want to remember. He looked at her intensively. What she could do, he has been able to for already long time.
'We have time.'
'That much time we do not have' Jane explained. 'Where do you come from, Sabrina?'
'Why do you think that I'm not from Sacramento?'
'You're too pale (yes, that's true). You have a different pronunciation concerning some words and you wear a t-shirt on which 'Washington' is written in tiny letters.'
'Then you must know where I come from.'
'That's right' Jane said and thought shortly. 'Shall I continue?'
'Please' Sabrina offered and listened to his soft voice.
'You've been friends with these girls your whole life. You've always been best friends and you never split up. You have no family, no husband and I guess, no boyfriend either.'
'Does it sound like hope?' Sabrina asked suddenly and Jane lost the thought he just played with. He hadn't been ready for this question. Was it so easy to hear?
Jane continued his thoughts: 'You lived in Washington, but your origin is in…Germany…right?'
Sabrina nodded appreciatively. He was good.
'You like to seduce men, but for you, they're nothing more than toys. They would never get closer than your friends.'
'Well, this could be about to change' she mentioned and Jane swallowed. Why on earth did this woman flirt with him all the time? He wasn't used to that, just remembering Kristina.
'You have something…that I can't explain, something frightening. There's an ice-cold side of you which you're really able to hide.'
Sabrina stared at him. This was no good sign. He could perfectly analyze men. Now, it was her turn. She wanted to test how tough he was. 'Now it's my turn' she said loudly and looked at him challenging. Jane nodded and listened.
'You've suffered enormous losses in your past which traces you until now. Everything tells me that you want to new woman, who loves you. But you think you don't earn it and always hide when you're close to it. That's the reason why you're not a couple with agent Lisbon. You fear that something happens to everybody close to you' Sabrina analyzed and deeply looked into the counselor's eyes. No weakness although his facial impression didn't move and he lost the color of his face.
'I know what happened, Patrick. I don't wanna talk with you about it because I know it won't help you. But please let me tell you, that you deserve new love.'
Jane looked serious but then nodded. Great, that she was so certain about this. At least one of both.
'You wanna go, don't you?'
Jane shrugged.
'I won't stop you' Sabrina mentioned. 'Although I'd like to keep you here forever.' She smiled charmingly and Jane grinned embarrassed. But he stood up and walked over to the door.
'I should go. Thanks for the tea.' He left the house and Sabrina was alone with her friends. Like it was planned.
'The job, when, where, what do I have to do?' Sabrina asked when she entered the living room.
'Where's the blonde-hair?' Caro looked around surprised.
'I'm suppose to do a job tonight, am I not? I wanna keep my promises. This wasn't planned and he had to disappear, right? What else do you wanna hear?' she responded aggressively. Actually, she hasn't wanted to let him go. But she had to do this damned job and she had to make everything alright again.
'Walter Mashburn (WTF?- note of the translator, I just finished the first three seasons in record time) ' Franzi responded Sabrina's question. 'He's rich and lived in a big villa. Caro and I already made everything ready. How you kill him, that's your cupcake.
'I wanna have fun' Sabrina laughed and disappeared in her room. This guy had to endure her aggression now. Because the job always had to be the first thing to think about. Short time later, she came back but without any gun with her. Franzi and Caro looked surprised.
'Er, gun?'
'Here' Sabrina said and showed a long piece of wire which she had hidden in her trousers' pocket. Caro just nodded and turned back to her computer.
'Well, let's start. I'm gonna do it alone.'
'Why?' Caro and Franzi asked in one mouth.
'Because I don't want any of you with me, okay?' Sabrina responded angrily and walked over to the door. She didn't want anybody with her because she didn't know if she could keep her anger only on the victim.
It was already dark but the villa was lightning brightly. It was huge and full of arrogance. How she hated people for whom money was the most important thing on the world. This made her enjoy her work even more.
'Open the front gate' Sabrina ordered via the tiny microphone on her collar.
'Done' a voice from the other side said and the gate opened silently. Sabrina tiptoed forward and through the bushes. She neared to the huge house.
'Were you able to control the CCTV cameras on the front door?'
'Is it a question? Of course!'
'Then cut them off…now!'
Sabrina heard a silent sound and the red light on the camera was off. She jumped to the front door and opened it with her very usual outdoor-skills.
'Are cameras in the house?'
'Only a few. But in these rooms not. It's late, I think he sleeps already.'
Sabrina nodded and walked along the huge corridor.
'Where's his sleeping room?'
'Up the staircase, along the hallway. The last door on the right side.'
'Thanks' Sabrina whispered and ran upwards. A few meters and seconds she stood in front of the last door on the right side. She listened carefully, nothing. A good sign when Mashburn slept. But Sabrina wanted that he was fully conscious when she did it. She was that angry and very glad that she had trained so much in the fitness studio and now she could proof that she was stronger than any victim. She opened the door, entered the bedroom and closed the door with a loud noise. Shortly after that she heard someone waking and sitting up very suddenly. Yes, he was awake. Perfect.
'Hello? Who's there?' a voice asked in the darkness. Sabrina didn't respond but came closer. He would see her early enough. She waited for him to turn on the lights but he didn't which surprised her very much. Suddenly, there was a big bang and Sabrina jumped to the ground. Has this guy just tried to shoot her? Okay, this was enough. She stood up again and walked toward that noise. She heard how the man stood up and obviously tried to search her in the room. When Sabrina reached the night table, she turned on the light and looked into the angry face of the man.
'Now you're dead' she hissed and threw herself onto the man. He tried to do something useful with the weapon but it ended up with gunshots on the wall. Sabrina got angrier. 'Are you all gone crazy? Trying to shoot me! Big mistake, huge mistake, honey!' The man coughed loudly and tried to free himself: 'What do you want from me?'
Sabrina rolled her eyes and hit him hard in his face. Walter moaned for pain. Sabrina pulled out the wire and put it around his neck: 'I don't want any more guys like you!' She pulled the two ends and Mashburn tried to breathe. But he couldn't defend himself. It didn't take long until he lost consciousness. Sabrina smiled staring at the dead body (as a translator I have to note that with losing consciousness, the victim isn't dead immediately but let's take along that Sabrina strangled him long enough) and stood up. Sometimes it just felt good. But she wasn't content and walked over to the bathroom. She grabbed a towel and put the weapon into Mashburn's hand. Then he just shot himself, she thought and pointed at the body in front of her. She shot several times and the bullets tore his body apart. Then, Sabrina put the weapon back into his hands and looked at the corpse satisfied. Worked out (okay, obvious that police will detect that it wasn't suicide but this is exactly what Sabrina wants – make Jane know that it was here, he just couldn't proof it).
But Sabrina wouldn't be Sabrina if she didn't control a second time. Has she left traces of DNA under his fingernails? Any other traces?
-No, Sabrina was sure and when she was finished, she walked out of the Villa. Her job was done.
Okay, everybody who watched the Mentalist knows Mashburn^^ I hope it wasn't too bad that he just had to leave :D
