"This is ridiculous! What are we waiting for?" Patrick hissed at Lisbon who was stood next to the big black car.
"We are waiting for them to secure the area...do you want to go in and get killed?" Lisbon retorted and Jane groaned. They had an anonymous tip off about a silver car pulling into a drive and a man carrying what looked like a sleeping girl who had fit the description of Lucy. The house was on a quiet lane which appeared nice...but Patrick knew that anywhere could be horrid.
"We can go boss" Cho said and Lisbon nodded and began to walk towards the house. Jane followed her and she knew there was no use trying to make him go back. When they reached the front door Rigsby knocked but there was no answer. With one firm nod from Lisbon, Cho kicked the door in and then in went the SWAT team. Patrick quickly went into the house and soon heard the words clear. He groaned. He didn't want to hear them words.
"Jane!" Lisbon yelled and Patrick followed her voice down some stairs. Once down he found a small room with a door open leading into another room. Lisbon was stood in the doorway and as Patrick walked over to her he feared the worst. He had a flashback of when he had found Louise. Not his daughter too. But as he walked over to Lisbon he saw a figure on a cot. Patrick brushed past Lisbon and practically ran to the cot. There was Lucy sat up in a ball wearing a long shirt. Patrick sat on the bed near his daughter but she did not give the reaction which he had hoped. She looked at him with wide eyes but said nothing. Patrick didn't understand. He noted that he eyes were red and her hair had been messed up. But what disturbed him most was the lack of colour on her face; she was as pale as a ghost.
"Lucy...darling...what happened...Lucy talk to me" Patrick begged her and he saw a tear fall from her eye.
"It hurts dad..." she sobbed and Patrick placed a hand on her arm.
"What does Lucy...your stomach?...tell me Lucy..." he begged her and Lucy looked at him in the eye.
"He raped me" Lucy whispered and Patrick blinked. Had she just said that? It couldn't be true.
"Oh Lucy" Patrick gasped and he hugged his little girl. Lucy began to cry into Patricks waistcoat as he held her. After he had let go of her he ran a hand through his hair.
"I'm getting you out of here..." Patrick said and he placed an arm around her waist and the other under her knees and picked her up. Lucy placed her hands onto her dad's shoulders and rested her head in his chest. Patrick looked at Lisbon as he brushed past her and out up into the sunlight.
...
"She's been badly bruised and will probably need to see a psychiatrist to help her through this" Dr. Taylor told Patrick.
"But he did...he did rape her didn't he?" Patrick asked and Lisbon looked away and into the room where Lucy slept.
"It would seem so Mr. Jane" Dr. Taylor agreed before making his leave.
"How did he know we was coming to find him? More importantly, how did he know where she was when she was in hiding?" Patrick asked her and she sighed.
"We think the anonymous tip off was from him...it would seem logical. And we still have no idea how he knew where she was hiding. But what we cannot understand is why he would give himself away...and not take Lucy with him" Lisbon said but she whispered the last part. Patrick looked at her and she raised a brow.
"He gave himself away because he is playing a game...he doesn't want it to end...and as for not taking Lucy, well I have no idea Lisbon. But I am glad he didn't. And I swear that when I find him I will murder him" Patrick swore.
"I know you're angry Jane..." Lisbon began but was cut off by Patrick:
"Angry? That is an understatement Lisbon. I hate him...what he did to Lucy was sick. I will kill him" Patrick said and he went into Lucy's room and sat in the uncomfotable chair.
...
He had to admit that he was sad to leave the girl behind...he had developed something for her. It was something which Red John had not felt for the girl. That was when he realised he did not want to be a Red John copycat. He wanted to be his own individual; he wanted to create fear like Red John had. He was Phantom. He had given the CBI the tip off because he wanted to play a cat and mouse game, he wanted them to know nowhere was safe. After all he had found Lucy in the safe house with no problem. But if Jane hadn't been as so stupid to call the girl he would never have traced the call from the car he was hidden in. But he was still going to kill Patrick Jane...but he might keep the girl. Lucy Jane was so beautiful and more importantly she had been his. He would get her back.
