A/N: Robin is hardrocker21's character.
Carly opened the door after getting ready for her day, seeing Ashley and immediately pulling her into a hug, Ashley wrapping her arms around Carly.
"I'm so sorry, Ash." Carly says.
"He was trying to change… now he's gone." Ashley says, sniffling a bit. It was when they let go that Ashley noticed the bandages that Carly had on her fingers, hands and wrists. "What happened to you?" She asks.
"I can't remember… it's like yesterday's completely erased from my memory." Carly says, Ashley remembering Carly's past head injuries, first one caused by a car crash and the other caused by Ivory Smith slamming a crowbar into Carly's head after causing her plane to crash at Mckenzie Airfield.
"Carly… did you-" Ashley says.
"I've thought of a life without Trevor trying to control me but I would've never murdered him. Even if I did, I would've remembered-" Carly says, Ashley pulling her into her arms as both hugged, tears in both of their eyes. "He's gone, he's never coming home." She says, Ashley rubbing her hand up and down Carly's back.
'Calm down… you have to try to remember the last time you saw Trevor alive.' Carly thought as she and Ashley let go, Ashley seeing that Carly was trying to remember.
At the same time, Sam was driving around, trying to clear her mind.
'Carly couldn't have murdered Dad. Yeah, they had their fight, all family members fight… but… could she had gone past her breaking point and killed him?' Sam thought, stopping at Sammy's house as Sammy walked outside.
"It's all over the news… you went straight to Carly, didn't you?" Sammy says as Sam gets off the quad bike.
"She doesn't remember anything from yesterday. I did see some scratches on her and rageful murders do get frenzied-" Sam says.
"You think she did it? Sam, Carly and Trevor had their problems but Carly is not the kind of person to brutally stab anyone, let alone over 100 times." Sammy says.
Meanwhile, Clint woke up, exhausted from partying with the LS Hunterz the previous night. He looked at his phone, seeing a text.
'I think Carly might have another head injury, she can't remember anything that happened yesterday.-Ash.'
'Crap, where are ya at?' Clint texts back.
'LSH place, helping Tommy clean up.' Ashley texts.
'Alright be there in 10 mins.' Clint texts back.
Clint got dressed, grabbed the keys to his Impala and left, arriving at the LS Hunterz place. When he walked in, he saw Carly looking around, looking like she was trying to remember something… but the look in her eyes was very clear… Trevor was gone for good and Carly was distraught.
"Ash call you?" Carly asks, Clint seeing the bandaged wounds on Carly's fingers, hands and wrists.
"Yeah she did. How are ya feeling?" Clint says.
"I can't believe he's gone… Trevor's never coming over to any of the houses or not calling anyone, asking if they want to hang out with him… I miss my Uncle T, I want him back." Carly says, tears falling again as Clint hugged her. Tommy and Ashley came down the stairs, Ashley walking over to the bar and opening a bottle of whiskey and drinking it straight out of the bottle.
Johnny drank some of it but when he offered the whiskey to Carly, she turned it down.
"Hey, guys." Franklin said after walking in, seeing the injuries Carly had. "Damn! What happened to you?!" He says.
"Whatever happened, I have no memory of it-" Carly says before seeing a black and grey Double T Custom outside. "Ivory fucking Smith!" She growled, about to go and beat Ivory to a bloody pulp when Ashley stopped her.
"I'll go and deal with him." Ashley says before walking outside.
"Did little Carly finally snap and kill the crazy bastard you called Dad, Ashley?" Ivory asks casually.
"Don't speak about my family like that." Ashley growled.
"Well, the violet eyed-" Ivory started to say, hearing the click of a gun and looked, Carly aiming her SNS Pistol at him.
"How do I know you didn't fucking murder Trevor, you demonic chanting bastard?!" Carly growled, Ashley trying to keep Carly from killing Ivory.
"Ash, he's been trying to make me show him pain for 2 ½ years, he put Jack in a damn coma and he damn near killed me, Sam and Johnny countless times! Why shouldn't I kill him?!" She yelled.
"Because-" Ashley says before pulling out her gun and shooting Ivory in the head. "-I'm going to kill him. No one fucks with my family and lives to see another day." She says.
"Lower the weapons, ladies." They heard, looked and saw Benson getting out of his Bravado Buffalo S.
"Sheriff…" Ivory says.
"Damn it. Can't you just fucking die?" Ashley says.
"We had this settled, Benson." Carly says, Benson handcuffing Ivory.
"Hey, what the hell?!" Ivory says.
"Ivory Smith, you're wanted for questioning in the murder of Trevor Philips! The cuffs are just so you don't run off!" Benson says before looking at Ashley and Carly. "And I am gonna have to talk to you two as well as anyone else who possibly had a motive." He says.
"Um… okay. We'll swing by later on." Ashley says.
Benson nodded before putting Ivory in the car and leaving, Clint and Johnny walking outside.
"If you want to head to Mount Zonah, Jack just woke up from his coma." Clint says.
"Is he okay?!" Carly asks, remembering that Jack had been shot right in the head.
"He wants to see someone he calls half pint." Clint says.
"Same old Jack." Carly mutters before they all leave.
Mount Zonah, ICU…
"There you are… I saw the news, I know he's gone." Jack says as he and Carly hug.
Ashley was waiting in the hallway when Sam and Rey walked up, all three hugging.
"Indie, Ezra, Kyle, Camari and Aiyana are on their way back from Tierra Robada. How you holding up, Ash?" Rey says.
"Alright I guess. Been having a sick feeling in my gut since this morning." Ashley says.
The three walked into the room, Jack sitting up.
"Ashie, I missed you." Jack says, him and Ashley hugging.
"You know that I don't like being called Ashie." Ashley says.
"And I didn't like being shot and being in a coma for a month. Is Ivory causing mayhem?" Jack says.
"Benson actually hauled him in earlier and don't repeat this-" Carly says before taking a deep breath. "-but for the life of me, I can't think of a motive Ivory had to murder Trevor." She says, startling the others.
"Who are you and what happened to Carly Jade?" Sam asks.
"I'm going outside." Ashley says before leaving.
"Don't stay out there too long, the storm's picked back up!" Carly says.
"Whatever." Ashley says. When she walked outside, Ashley grabbed her pack of smokes… but instead of lighting one, she chucked it across the parking lot, hitting Michael in the face.
"Ow!" Michael says, rubbing his nose.
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry." Ashley says.
"It's okay, Ash. I ain't handling T's death so well either." Michael says after walking over, both hugging and Ashley seeing the nicotine patch on Michael's right arm and a bandage covering a new tattoo. Michael pulled the bandage off, revealing a tattoo that had R.I.P Trevor in black ink on a grey headstone and a black crow perched on the headstone.
"That's cool." Ashley says.
"Something to remember him by… how's Carly and everyone else handling it?" Michael says.
"Carly's not handling it too well. Sam said to me earlier… that she thinks Carly might've killed Trevor." Ashley says, startling Michael.
"They had their problems but I don't think Carly would go that far. Police said that there was a lack of blood where T was found. Could a 5ft tall, 102 pound girl really drag a body too far without someone noticing?" Michael says.
"Unless of course she didn't drag, she put him into a trunk of a car and then dumped the body." Ashley says.
"Anything's possible. Maybe Carly saw who did kill him and tried to hide Trevor where she figured he was happiest. He liked hunting in that forest." Michael says.
"Yeah I know. He and I used to go hunting in that forest together." Ashley says, wiping a tear from her face.
The two jumped out of their skin as thunder was heard nearby, both walking into the hospital. When they reached the floor Jack was on, they saw Carly drinking a cup of herbal tea, trying to calm her nerves. When Ashley smelled the herbal tea, she almost threw up.
"Seriously, how can you drink that stuff?" Ashley asks.
"I'm slowly trying to ease off of caffeine." Carly says, Ashley nodding and thinking that Carly was taking better care of herself.
"Are you alright Ash?" Clint asks.
"Yeah, just not been feeling too good all day." Ashley says.
Carly looked down the hallway, standing up and the others seeing her walk to a man in his mid 20s, both of them hugging. Ashley recognised him as Robin Graves, a mortician who worked in Sandy Shores.
"Hey there, Robin." Ashley says.
"Hey, Ash… I'm sorry about Trevor." Robin says as they hug for a few seconds. Carly cringed a bit as pain spasmed through her fingers, the cuts aggravating her. "The hell happened to you, tiny one?" He asks.
"Might've gotten in a fight… I can't remember anything from yesterday." Carly says. Ashley's phone chimed, Ashley looking at it and seeing a text from Tommy.
'Found footage from a CCTV camera of Trevor and Carly about a few hours before Trevor died. You'll want to see this.'
'Alright on my way to your place or are you at LSH place?' Ashley texts back.
'LSH place and hurry.' Tommy texts back.
"Gotta go. I will be back soon." Ashley says.
"Be careful out there, brutal storm outside." Robin says. Ashley leaves, arriving at the LS Hunterz place and walking over to Tommy.
"Things got a bit… violent on his part." Tommy says before playing the video, Ashley's eyes widening when she saw Trevor hit Carly in the head with a wrench before he took out a knife, him and Carly fighting over it and Carly's hands firmly around the blade
"Just stop, stop it. I don't want see anymore." Ashley says.
Tommy stopped it, Ashley sitting down.
"He attacked her, tried to stab her…" Ashley says, Tommy lightly rubbing Ashley's left shoulder. Suddenly, Ashley stood up and flipped the coffee table. "He fucking tried to stab her!" She yelled.
Ashley looked behind her, seeing Jake backed up against the wall and shaking.
"Jake, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you." Ashley says.
"I'm okay… I guess you just saw the video… I saw it earlier, Trevor left alive and well after that incident." Jake says. Ashley ran her fingers through her hair, trying not to cry.
"She's torn up because she thinks she killed him." Ashley says. "I don't want to even remember him, I just want that part of my life gone." She says. Suddenly, Ashley walked down to the basement and returned with 5 jerry cans filled with gasoline.
"We're gonna go burn his home?" Tommy asks.
"Not just his home all of his thing. His truck, drug lab, the airfield and the strip club." Ashley says.
A while later, Camari's P.O.V
"Holy fuck… what the fuck?!" Carly shouts as we see Trevor's airfield on fire. Ashley walks over to me, Carly and Johnny, holding an empty jerry can.
"Ashley, what the fuck are you doing?!" Johnny says.
"I'm burning it all. That's what I'm fucking doing." Ashley says before tossing the empty jerry can away and climbing into her Jeep before speeding off.
