Chapter Five

Once all four men were in the secure conference room, Mac gave them what Danny Messer, had given him.

"Before leaving New York, we had a crime scene that involved a shooting of a young woman," pulling the flash drive from his pocket and inserted into a computer sitting on the conference room table and pulled the picture up on the screen, "we thought she was a prostitute at first but when Sid did the autopsy we found this on her right ankle," showing them tattoo of an anchor, "my CSI Danny Messer ran bullets from this young woman and found serrations that match the ones here in Miami."

Horatio started putting the pieces together and didn't like what he was coming up with, "Saris is back isn't he?"

Mac looked right at Horatio, "Yes he is. By the time I had all this information I had just I had just gotten off the phone with Sheldon Hawkes who is my other CSI, who was recalled back to active duty, and is on the USS Seahawk. He informed me that Dr. Cassandra Fraiser is performing surgery on one Kyle Harmon who has multiple injuries."

All four were quiet as they processed the information that they were given. As they pondered what to do next, there was a knock on the door. Horatio got up to see who was on the other side of the door. What his saw was a young woman with curly hair tied in a pony tail and canvas bag over shoulder. "Is my father here? The lady over in reception said he was in here."

"Who is your father?" H asked.

"Mattie what are you doing here?" Harm asked as he stood behind Horatio. He had heard her voice at the door and came directly behind the Lieutenant.

"Cassie called. Kyle is being transferred to Miami Dade Memorial Hospital in two days. He insisted infact. I am here for back up. Cassie also said that whoever is after Kyle tried to gain entrance to the infirmary but was left with a hole between the eyes. She called mom to talk to Hawkes because he is the one that stopped the guy and now he is having battle shakes."

Harm nodded his head. If any one understood what Sheldon was going through it would be his beloved Sarah. She maybe retired but she had access to a lot classified contacts. General O'Neill and Cassie Fraiser being one of them.

Horatio turned to Admiral Rabb, "Is your wife safe out there in the Med?"

Harm grinned, "Yeah she'll be safe. Most of the crew knows her, especially the retiring age." He looked at Mac, Ryan and the Horatio. "She is a retired Colonel in the Marine Corps and knows about the special project that General O'Neill and Cassie are involved in."

Horatio nodded. He was glad that, that was the only thing that he didn't need not have to worry about. H turned back to Mattie who was anxious to get going. "I'd like to go with you?"

Mattie turned to her father who she had silent conversation with, and shook her head no. "Lt. Caine my ride is an F-22 raptor and seats two, if you come with me your gonna have to follow my orders. Will you be able to follow my orders because if you can't there is no sense in you going."

Horatio nodded his head. "I'll follow orders." He wanted to see his son and if this was the only way to do it, he would most definitely follow orders.

Mattie nodded her head. "We leave in 10. Make sure you have everything the want to take with you that is small enough for being gone at least a week."

"I'll be ready."

Mattie nodded her head once then turned to her dad, "See aboard Cap'n". She in turn gave him a sloppy salute and headed out to the way she come.

Wolfe was stunned. He had never seen a girl Mattie's age give a dressing down to H. He was always dressing down the new recruits. How could the girl talk to H like that?

Harm turned to look at Ryan Wolfe's expression and chuckled, "Mr. Wolfe is it?"

Ryan nodded.

"Mattie has always spoken like that to me and she has become an awesome pilot. When I was in the navy she had more tact than what you saw. Since I retired from the navy she has gotten back to talking to me with her unique personality. Ryan, she has been my ward since her father decided being a father was not his cup of tea."

"What happened sir?"

"Her father drowned himself in alcohol and left a 15 year old in care for a dilapidated air strip that her mother had owned for centuries."

Horatio now had new respect for the young woman. Coming from an abusive childhood himself, he understood Mattie that much more.

"Well gentleman," turning to Mac and Ryan, "thanks for the intel" turning to Horatio, "we better get a move on. She has the uncanny ability to start tapping her watch when someone is late. We have seven minutes to get out to the car and then from there an F-22 raptor as well as I in a bi-plane that needs to fueled while in mid air before making it to the med."

"Mr. Wolfe, tell Calleigh to contact me on the Seahawk once the evidence has arrived from New York. Mac it was nice to see you again. Thanks for the heads up." And with that Horatio left to get his to go bag out of his office and head out to where Retired Captain Harmon Rabb and Mattie waited.
