Author's notes: THE SEQUEL TO FAMILY IS HERE! The first chapter is probably a bit boring but rest assured, I'm gonna dig deeper into family history for Kono and Kaila in the next chapter.
It's been 3 months since that incident in Afghanistan. Kaila was finally fully recovered and was due to graduate the Police Academy. Steve had gotten the governor to fast track Kaila's Police Academy because her results were tops. Kono and Steve were very happy 3 months into their relationship and Kaila was about to officially become a HPD/Five-0 officer. It was 6am and Kaila was usually a late riser, but she was just too excited for today. So she opened her door and walked to where the bathroom was and opened the door to find something unexpected
"STEVE? OH MY GOD!" Kaila screamed, turned around and ran to the living room
"Oh shit." Steve muttered to himself as he zipped up his pants
"Steve what the hell are you doing here? I thought u and Kono were spending time at your place?" Kaila asked, trying desperately to get the image of naked Steve out of her head
"We were, but my bed broke beca-"
"OH STOP RIGHT THERE. ARE MY EARS BLEEDING?" Kaila was getting more grossed out by the minute, while Steve was looking very sheepish
"What are you doing up this early anyways Kaila?"
"Today's the big day Steve." Kaila said sarcastically
"Oh right yea sorry. It's your Academy graduation day. I'm so sorry you had to –"
"STEVE PLEASE, you know what, I'm just gonna go to my room and hope for a Martian to come and take me to Mars." Kaila said, knowing that she'll be scarred for life. She walked upstairs and saw Kono coming down
"Hey what's with the shouting? What happened?" Kono asked
"Well Kono the only way I can explain what I just saw would be in a therapist's office with dolls."
"What? What's going on?" Kono asked, more confused that ever
"Just leave it Kono erghhh. From now on you guys spend your nights in Steve's house." Kaila said and ran to her room. Kono walked down the stairs into the living room where she saw Steve standing there with his pants barely zipped up and no shirt on. Then she had realised what happened
"No. Steve tell me she didn't see…. No…" Kono was at a loss for words
"I was in the bathroom finishing my shower when Kaila opened the door and saw me…." Steve said sheepishly
"Oh Steve…" Kono said, wanting to burst into laughter
"Gee thanks Kono." Steve said sarcastically
"Oh relax Steve she's seen some of my boyfriends naked accidentally before." Kono said easily
"SERIOUSLY? So I don't need to go and apologise or anything?"
"S'all good brah, nothing new to her, why don't you come back to bed and we'll finish what we started…." Kono said to Steve seductively.
"Your wish is my command Ms Kalakaua." Steve whispered. They turned around to see a mortified Kaila
"Kaila… It's not what it-"
"Oh please, I THINK MY EYES ARE BLEEDING ALSO. I'm just gonna get out of the house before I see anything else. If I do, I might need to gouge my eyes out. See you tonight at the graduation. Erghhhh ewww." Kaila shook her head and ran out of the house.
"I think she may have just lost all respect for me." Steve sighed
"Don't sweat it, she'll be just fine. Let's get dressed for work." Kono laughed and headed upstairs. It's been 3 months since her and Steve started going out and she couldn't be happier.
Meanwhile, Kaila was meeting up with her best friend to find a dress for the graduation after party.
"Hey Alana howzit! Long time sista!" Kaila had a huge smile on her face and ran to hug her friend. They haven't seen each other since Kaila got out of the hospital after Afghanistan. Kaila had been so busy with Police Academy and Alana was busy with her SAT's that they didn't have time to meet up with each other.
"Yea it's been awhile hasn't it. How's your sister and that stud of a boyfriend?" Alana said with a wink. All of Kaila's friends who had seen Steve had a crush on the guy. Kaila rolled her eyes, yes Steve was extremely hot, but he was, in her opinion, Kono's soul mate. She had never seen a person more fit for her sister than Steve.
"She's fine, they're both fine. Now shut up and let's shop, finally get to flex my shopping muscles a bit!" Kaila smiled
They spent the rest of the day shopping for the perfect dress and multiple accessories. They finally bought a strapless black dress which clung to her curves, a pair of designer heels and a Gucci clutch. Kaila said her goodbyes and headed off the Royal Hawaii Hotel for her graduation when she received a call from Kono
"Hey Kono what's up?"
"Hey we're running late, got caught up in a hostage case, I don't know if we're gonna make it, I'm so sorry Kaila." Kono said apologetically
"Are you serious Kono? This is my police academy graduation Kono. THE ONE YOU ASKED ME TO JOIN. I can't believe you mightn't even make it. I mean am I that unimportant to you?" Kaila's voice grew higher and higher. She was known for her temper.
"No Kaila you kn-"
"NO KONO I DON'T KNOW. You say you wanna be there for me but do you? You missed my middle school graduation Kono, because of A PARTY THAT YOUR DOUCHEBAG OF A BOYFRIEND WAS THROWING. YOU MISSED MY FIRST SURFING COMPETITION BECAUSE OF WHAT? Oh yea, BECAUSE YOU NEEDED TO GET DRUNK WITH YOUR FRIENDS. You know what? I don't need you there, good luck with your case." Kaila finished coldly.
"Kaila, you know that's not me now. Ok I admit to those mistakes, but they were all the old me, you know I'm a different person now. I'm sorry Kaila, but I'll try my bes-"
"Kono I don't wanna hear it. Just….. Turn up if you feel like it. Bye." Kaila said with a cold finality and hung up.
"Wow, Kono you sure she's not The Incredible Hulk?" Danny asked sarcastically.
"Oh trust me she could get a lot worse." Kono felt really bad about the possibility of missing out on Kaila's graduation, and all of her accusations were true. She's missed out on so much of Kaila's childhood. She had to make this graduation or else Kaila probably would never forgive her.
"Drive Danny, we need to make this graduation."
"Yes Ma'am." Danny said in his best chauffeur voice.
Kaila was getting ready with the other female Police Academy graduates in a hotel suite.
"So your sister and her team aren't gonna make it?"
"Yea I don't know. They got caught up with this hostage case or whatever, no big deal." Kaila shrugged it off, but she was really disappointed that her sister and the rest of Five-0 couldn't see her graduate.
"Yea you know I've heard some stuff about Five-0, and apparently they're not as good as they seem." One of the graduates said sceptically
"Yea? What stuff?" Kaila said, with curiosity
"Apparently that Steve McGarrett dude is some bossy control freak with no limits. As for your sister, they've been saying that the only reason she got into Five-0 was because she was banging Steve McGarrett, no offense." The girl quickly added
Kaila hadn't realised how many rumours about her ability as a cop Kono had to endure. Her anger towards them was just petty. She had to defend her sister.
"You think she got into Five-0 because apparently she was banging Steve?"
"Well yea. My brother told me she just came out of the academy, how can you get into a governor's taskforce otherwise?"
Kaila felt the anger inside her. It was back, with a burning vengeance.
"Hey my sister can kick you and your brother's asses without burning up a sweat. So please, don't say shit about my sister." Kaila got all her stuff and was about to walk out of the room
"You're family is full of disgrace you know? First that Chin Ho Kelly guy, then your sister, now you. You're not gonna be a good cop." The girl said cynically
"For your information, Chin Ho and my sister are both clean and good cops. Oh by the way, I'm joining Five-0 as soon as I graduate too, and I whooped both of your asses in training. So why don't you just kiss my ass." Kaila said with swag, walked out without any care in the world about what they thought.
The team was running to the room where they were holding the graduation.
"You know I'm asthmatic right?" Chin puffed
"Do you want Kaila to go off at you Cuz?
"Guess not. Oh look here it is."
They pulled at the door and saw a magnificent gala like room with basically everyone already seated. Kono scanned the room until she saw a table with a label Reserved by Five-0. Kono motioned for everyone to follow her
"Ladies and Gentlemen, would you please be seated as the Graduation will commence in 2 minutes." The moderator announced
"Looks like we made it." A relieved Kono said
"Whose the presenter of the Graduation certificates and such?" Chin asked
Kono looked on the program and her jaw tensed
"What's wrong babe?" Steve asked
"The person who is gonna giving out the certificates is the one and only Chief Of Police (Everyone tensed) Vincent Fryer." Kono said, stone cold.
Before anyone could get a word out
"Ladies and Gentlemen, without further ado, let's welcome our presenter for the night, Chief of police Vincent Fryer!" The moderator clapped as Fryer climbed onto the stage
"Thank you Mr Jones. This year's batch of police officers are more skilled than ever. Not only did they go through vigorous physical tests, they often had to go through hours of theoretical police work, and they've accomplished so much over the course of 6 months. I think it's time to acknowledge their achievements. Please hold you applause until the end."
"Kai Kakumuru, sister of Karina Kakamuru. Joseph-Vincent Fryer, my nephew.
"Can't wait to see your sister shaking Fryer's hand." Danny whispered
"Shut up Danny, she's not gonna do anything stupid." Kono snapped
"Kaila Kalakaua. Miss Kalakaua actually scored top marks overall. She is the sister of officer Kono Kalakaua, cousin of Lieutenant Chin Ho Kelly, and daughter of old Chief of Police Iokua Kalakaua. We are very glad to have this talented family of police officers with us."
Kaila then went on stage to shake Fryer's hand and looked into the crowd, hoping to see any sign of the team. She finally caught sight of Kono, smiled and turned to Fryer. If it was up to her, she'd punch him right there, but she gritted her teeth and quickly shook Fryer's hand and went off the stage. They soon went through everyone's names and had told all the guests that the newly appointed officers will be joining them shortly. 20 minutes later, a very beautiful Hawaiian girl stepped out in a beautiful black dress and six inch heels. Steve and Danny's jaws both dropped as they spotted her. Her native beauty was heartbreaking, and her smile was infectious.
"Hey there's Officer Kalakaua Jnr!" Steve said, pulling out a chair for Kaila
"I could get used to that title. How do I look?" Kaila mimicked twirling around and showing off her assets. Several young men wolf whistled and Kaila smiled flirtatiously at them.
"Beautiful." Chin assured her
"Hey guys are you coming after party?" Kaila asked
"Wouldn't miss you getting drunk for anything babe." Danny teased
"Oh I'll be getting drunk alright." Kaila said with a wink
"No Kaila please don't. Drunk you is stupid and slutty." Kono sighed
"Hey I only have one night left of fun. Now come on, let's go to the after party!"
Everyone moved the party upstairs where there was a dance floor, DJ, bar with a lot of different drinks. Kaila immediately went to her friends and started dancing
"May I have this dance?" Steve said, holding out his hand to Kono
"You can all of my dances Steve." Kono kissed him and followed him to the dance floor. Kaila came back and took shots with everyone, and the rest of the night was just history.
When the next day came, Kaila was feeling like shit. Her head hurt so bad and her body ached. 1pm, it said on her clock. Well Steve and Kono have to be at work she thought. So she got up and made herself some lunch and found a note on the dining table:
K,
Feel better, you had a big night last night. Make sure you rest, you start work tomorrow.
Kono.
"Thanks sister." Kaila said to herself, smiling.
After she ate some lunch, she went down to the beach and went for a hangover swim&surf. It sure helped with the hangover.
Meanwhile at Five-0 HQ
"Guys come on there has to be a reason this guy escaped from an airplane on an extradition. What's he after? Revenge? Who would he want to hurt in Hawaii?" Steve asked
RING RING. Steve went to a corner to answer the phone
"McGarrett."
"Commander McGarrett this is Governor Denning."
"What can I do for you governor?"
"I'm afraid I have very bad news. Wo Fat escaped from prison 1 hour ago."
Hope you enjoyed! I'd love to hear about any improvements to the story. As usual, read and review!
