"But let's continue!" as he walked over and sat in a chair next to Fox and Ethan "You see Lindsey!" as he brought out a picture of her "Was my Illegitimate daughter!" as he showed the picture of Lindsey to Fox and Ethan. "Her name was Hannah, her name was changed once she was adopted" smiled the southern man "You see a long time ago I fell in love with this Spanish girl named Carla from Louisiana beautiful women, my wife found out and forbid me to continue it, she came to me a few moths later and told me she was pregnant and didn't have any money to care for it, so I told her to have an abortion, when she tried to something went wrong and she couldn't do it she bore the child the birth was an odd one, Carla unfortunately died while giving birth but the baby it had these Blood red eyes almost evil when it came out I rubbed my eyes to make sure I wasn't seeing things when I looked again her eyes were chocolate brown on her butt she had distinct birth mark that looks like a pitch fork. My wife didn't want anything to do with the child, she thought she was evil, the devils child, you see Carla's family dabbed in the black arts, I didn't know about it until after the fact. My wife insisted that I give her away, saying that the child was evil the devil reincarnated and wanted nothing to do with it, I thought that she was jealous that I had, had a child with Carla but I knew something wasn't right with the child so I gave her up for adoption. I lost track of her for a few years but found her again, and what I found will shake you to the core!"
Fox and Ethan listen to the man contently……….
"What I found out……………………….!"
"Yes get to the point!" yelled Fox
"O.k. Calm down son, I am getting to that!"
"It's just seems to me, and Fox will agree with me on this" as Ethan glance over to Fox for approval "That you are playing games with us and sir our time is limited, we have no tolerance for such nonsense!"
"See now there you Yanks go again, always in a rush, these things take time, effort you want the whole story don't you?" look at the his guests for approval as Fox and Ethan shook their heads "I mean it would mean nothing, but a waste of time if I just got to the point you would leave here with unanswered question!"
"Ethan I think that he is right, let him finish!"
"Thank you Mr. Crane!" as he took a long puff of his cigar "Now Where was I!" laughed Jackson "Oh yes, well the first years of her life I was allowed to visit her, family who own a plantation down in Somerville, Alabama, real nice folks, family lived there since before the civil war, now I saw my little girl until about she was 4 years old, my wife found out told me I needed to pay more attention to my other children the one that she had bore for me, well after that I stopped seeing her. Lost touch, well about 5 years ago I got this phone call from a doctor at the Somerville Psychiatric Facility there in Somerville says he needed to see me right away, I had ask him what it was about, thought my wife had gone crazy and killed someone, he ask me if I had a daughter named Lindsey Korman I told him no, then he says she says her name is Hannah Carmichael but her ID says Lindsey Korman." As he took another puff of his cigar
"So I reluctantly went down there, despite my wife pleads and cries for me not to go, I meet the Doctor, nice gentleman, we sat down, now boys are you ready for this?"
"Yes!"
***Flashback***
Jackson approaches the front desk "Hi I am here to see Dr. Nichols!" The nurse looks up from her desk "Yes and you are?"
"Jackson Carmichael!"
The nurse gasps! "He's expecting you, down the hall 2 door to your right, just go right in!"
"Thank you mam'!" as he tip his hat to her "Hmm mm Hmm Hmm mmm" as he quietly hummed to himself as he walked down the hall he glance behind him and pointed to a door "Yes sir that one!" yelled the nurse at the front door.
He gently knocked on the door to let the occupant know that he had a guest "Hello?"
"Oh hello, Mr. Carmichael!" as a young blue eyes blond hair, handsome doctor greeted him. Jackson extended his hand for the doctor.
"Hi, Justin Nichols, Dr. Justin Nichols" laughed the good doctor "I have always wanted to do that!"
"Well sir you called me down here on urgent matters, what is it? What's wrong with my daughter?"
"Oh yes, sorry!" as the doctor turned around to retrieve a file from the filing cabinet "Please have a seat!"
"Your daughter, she has been here for 2 years now, she has now just spoken a word since that awful night!"
"What are you talking about, where are her adoptive parents?"
"Maybe I should start from the beginning!"
"2 years ago, your daughter was found in the basement, something awful had happen in that house prior to the murders!"
"What murders?"
"You see on the night your daughter was found, someone had killed Mr. and Mrs. Kormam, chopped them to pieces!" as the doctor threw the crime scene photos to Jackson, who threw them back in disgust
"What happen to my daughter?"
"Well the thing was the police was baffled, no forced entry, nothing didn't look like a robbery, Lindsey, I mean Hannah was down in the basement walking around with blood all over her talking incoherently" said the doctor "Something about evil, daddy, mommy daddy touch!" as the doctor reached in his drawers and pulled out a tape "Here listen to this!" as he put the tape in the tape recorder a press play.
Doctor: What's your name?
Lindsey: No Daddy Bad
Doctor: Why is daddy bad?
Lindsey: No Mommy No
Doctor: Lindsey what happen to you?
Lindsey: Evil, Hurt, Dead, I
The doctor stopped the tape "That was it that was her last words!" sighed the Doctor "She didn't start speaking again until today, says her real name is Hannah Carmichael!"
"Is she o.k.?"
"Seems to me, speaks like a normal, person can't really remember much about what happen the last 2 years of her life!"
"So your saying she has no recollection of what happen!"
"Nope, you see sir sometimes the mind shut down, not completely mind you, if the person has had a traumatic event that has occurred to them and they want to forget about the mind can shut that part of the memory down, but mind you it will surface!"
"So tell me what does the police, have to say about who did it?"
"They think Hannah did it!"
"What, do you think that she is capable of something like that?"
"Look sir, I have to warn you that when her memory surfaces again we all do not know what she is capable of, the Somerville Chief of Police says there is no way that someone else could of down this, she had time Sir, she had motive, found out the she had, had years of sexual abuse from both the mother and father, that's why we think she shut down like that!"
"Is she ready to go home?"
"No we have to keep her here for observation, won't be for a while until she gets out!"
"Well here is a check for 1 million dollars give it to her when she is ready, tell her it's from you!"
"Yes sir, look Mr. Carmichael I didn't mean to upset you thought you might like to know the truth, that's all!"
"Thank you!"
