"NO!"

It was like everything was happening in slow motion. Ashley's ears rang from the gunshot. Everything seemed to be happening at once. The gun fired, Horatio fell and she heard a familiar voice scream as a flash of blonde raced to his side. Jerry took aim at Calleigh and cocked the gun. Ashley's eyes turned blood red.

"THIS ENDS NOW!" she roared. She transformed and leaped at him closing her jaws on his hand with bone crushing force. She tasted blood as it oozed into her mouth and felt bones being crushed like they were twigs, but it only increased her blood lust. Jerry let out an inhuman shriek and dropped the gun desperately reaching for the knife in his belt. The two of them hit the deck, locked together. He reached the knife and slashed Ashley across the muzzle. The werewolf yelped, releasing her hold on him. She backed up shaking her head to get the blood out of her eyes. Her lips curled back in a vicious snarl revealing razor sharp and bloody fangs. Jerry readied himself for another attack, grinning insanely; soon this freak of nature would be dead!

Calleigh ran to Horatio's side, he clutched his bleeding arm trying to sit up. Calleigh froze when she heard the gun being cocked again. All of a sudden Jerry let out an inhuman shriek. All the CSI's watched in horrified amazement. Ashley fastened her powerful jaws around Jerry's hand, crushing it as easy as you'd crush a flower. He managed to pull a knife and slashed her across the muzzle. She let go trying to clear the blood out of her eyes. She bared bloody fangs and snarled venomously. Her eyes were blood red with rage and she looked like something that had stepped out of your worst nightmares. Jerry readied himself holding the knife with his good hand grinning insanely.

"God help us!" she whispered as Ashley leaped at him jaws wide.

Ashley leapt at him with a demonic roar fastening her jaws around his arm this time. Her jaws were like a steel trap and the bone snapped like a twig. Jerry slashed at her with all his might but she battled on completely unfazed. The force of her attack made him stumble and they both tumbled over the railing into the clear blue waters. The four CSI's ran to the railing and watched as the waters slowly turned red. Suddenly sirens blared in the distance.

"Oh thank god!" Catherine breathed.

Ashley's movements were severely hampered in the water. Their blood mingled with the water, turning it red so it was like swimming in a crimson sea of death. Ashley winced as the blade sliced into her shoulder; she had to get rid of that knife. She let go of his arm swimming to the surface for a breath and saw Jerry do the same. She broke the surface taking a deep breath before diving back down. Through the red waters she saw him treading water, looking for her. Seizing the opportunity she swam upwards exploding out of the water like a shark, grabbing the knife. Realizing he'd be dog food in a few minutes he swam desperately for the shore. Ashley's keen ears pricked up, she heard sirens fast approaching. She curled her lips back in what could be described as a wolf's smile before perusing her prey. She saw him manage to climb onto the docks and saw police cars screech to a halt. She quietly transformed back into her human self before hauling herself out of the water. A policeman quickly pulled her back and drew his gun along with the others and aiming at Jerry.

"Get down on the ground!" he yelled. Jerry saw Ashley standing behind the officer and lunged. There was a multitude of shots and a bullet ridden and clearly Jerry hit the ground. Knowing there'd be hell to pay later, she gabbed the knife plunging it into his heart as many times as she could, doing as much damage as possible before they pulled her off him. One of the officers radioed for an ambulance.

"I'm okay, Lt. Caine is injured, and he's on the boat." Ashley said panting. She was covered in multiple slashes and there was a large gash across her face extending from almost between her eyes and down her right cheek and jaw, stopping at her throat. But despite her injuries she seemed to be in little pain. She was covered in blood and looked like she had just stepped out of a horror movie. She smiled at her four friends and waved.

"I don't know about you but I could really use a drink!" she yelled.

"I second that!" Catherine said as they walked off the boat. She winced at Ashley's injuries.

"How the hell are you alive right now?"

"Well being a virtually indestructible creature of the night does help you know."

"Ah"

The ambulance pulled up and she and Horatio were loaded inside. Calleigh quickly hopped in before the doors shut. She gently took Horatio's hand leaning on his shoulder with a tired smile. From her position on the stretcher Ashley could see Horatio rest his head on top of hers. Ashley grinned at the two of them. She winced when the stuck her with a needle.

"Oi watch it, I've got enough holes in me already thank you!"

The next morning Ashley sat up in her hospital bed. Just like the last time, her super natural condition had healed almost all her wounds without to much trouble though the gash on her face had left a scar. She smiled as her four comrades plus Eric, Ryan and Alexx came into the room.

"How are ya doin wolf girl?" Ryan asked.

"Never better, you couldn't have come at a better time, I hate hospitals even though I work in one, its just to quiet when you're a patient besides the food, well it just plain sucks!" she said with a grin. Her expression turned serious as she turned to Alexx.

"Did you remove the heart and brain like I told you?"

"Done and said organs destroyed."

"Good, you don't need another werewolf in Miami."

"I think one's enough." Eric agreed.

"Well I'm being discharged this evening and I think you guys owe me a drink!" she said with a wink.

"I still say we should've taken you to the vet." Catherine said. The group laughed at the remark.

"I'm glad this is over, soon we can get back to Vegas." Catherine sighed leaning on Gil's shoulder. Horatio smiled casually slipping his arm around Calleigh's waist. Ashley gave Calleigh a wink. The pretty blonde grinned and returned it.

"Well I don't know about you but I'm starving who's up for some lunch?" Calleigh said.

"Yeah there's a great restaurant not far from here." Ryan said.

"Great see you Ashley!"

They all walked out saying a teasing farewell.

"Oh come on guys no fair!" she said. They laughed and continued on their way. Ashley sank back into bed looking very dejected.

"Bloody CSI's!"
