CHAPTER I
WELCOME HOME
It was the prettiest day ever on the Hawaiian sky, the sun was shining like never did before, the clouds dancing with each other making beautiful forms and the palms whispering with the wind at the rhythm of the ocean waves…
What looked like years passed so fast they didn't even realized when someone stood on the door staring at them in silence…
"Do you have room for two more?" Kono said with the biggest smile they ever saw on her, right on time for Steve to leave his spot and run straight to her and hug her with all his strength.
"Kono! Come here…Is so good to see you and have you back…. "– Steve said with his heart on the hand.
"I missed you guys!" - Was all that Kono was able to say before starting to hug everyone on the line. It felt so good to finally be back at home.
"Cuz! Please promise me you'll never gonna do this again!" Her cousin Chin finally said
"I won't Chin. I couldn't do so even if I would want to. Hawaii is my home and you guys are my family" She calmly replied
"Is really good to hear that Kono. WELCOME HOME!" - Steve said taking up a beer and toasting with each other.
They spend the rest of that day like that, talking about everything. Telling each other how much they missed her and how HQ wasn't the same without her. Also warning Adam how they wouldn't let her go again and he better be nice with her if he didn't want to get locked up for life. It was almost midnight by the time everyone decided to go home, Danny had to drop Gracie off at Rachel's, Chin had plans with Leilani, Grover had to get ready for the next day and Cath had a meeting at the base with her old CO. So, it left only Steve, Kono and Adam…
"Kono, Are you ready to come back?"- McGarrett asked
"I have never being more ready…" Kono answered with the more sure tone she had
"Then you are gonna need this" –He said taking out of one his drawers her gun and badge- "I kept it here all this time, waiting for you to come and get it. I'm death serious when I say we need you on the Team Kono, you are part of us, our Ohana. No one could ever replace you. I thought you should know that"
Taking the gun and looking at her badge reading Officer Five-0, she spoke with a very soft and sweet voice…
"Thank you Steve. It means a lot to me. (Hugging him again)All this time away from you, the whole team… it was really hard. I missed you all too much. But I'm here now, I'm not going anywhere…"
"Good to know Kono, good to know… So see you on Monday?" Steve asked with lil fear she wouldn't be ready…
"That's for sure! Thank you again. Good night Boss!" She said smiling and waving her hands at him
"Good night Kono! Take good care of her Adam. And don't dare to leave her again like that or you'll meet my fists. OK?"
"Sure thing Commander!" Adam replied with a shy smile at the thought of getting punished by him for taking his teammate away, again…
The weekend seemed longer than it was. Everyone was excited about starting working together again. That was the level of excitement that they organized their own lil welcome party for her. They set everything they got ready on the table, just waiting for her to arrive. Danny brought her favorite malasadas from her favorite store, Chin brought her Kona's coffee, Cath bought some flowers and finally Steve bought her a new medal of honor, with her favorite thing on earth a small beautiful and shiny wave with a tiny surfboard on…
"Hey! Look who's here!" Danny spoke fist
"What is all of this?" Kono greeted
"Is just a little welcome back detail from all of us to you" Steve replied
"Welcome back cousin!" Chin added
"It's so beautiful! Thank you guys! You are gonna make me cry…" -Kono mentioned holding back the tears –"Wait… you actually supported Danny to buy me malasadas?" She said turning to Steve
"For this special time only! I'm still against getting a bypass for eating that stuff."
"Oh! Come on! Just admit it for once and all Steven!"- Danny bickering in- "You wanna eat them all! Just say it!"
"I said NO Daniel! I don't want to die from it!"
"But you allow Danny to put them on me? That's love brah!"
They all burst to laugh at her statement. They had to admit they didn't smiled so much since she left. It was like something was missing and they couldn't fix it. But now she was back, she was safe and with them. If only happiness could last…
"Well… I hate to interrupt the nice meeting guys. But I just hang out with the governor, we've got a case. Dead woman shot on the chest, on Kapiolani Boulevard. Let's go!"- Steve said in his Commander McGarrett mode on
The case gets wrapped up faster than normally. While Steve and Kono interviewed the witnesses, Danny informed the husband and Chin and Cath searched everything they could find about the victim and her background history. Few statements later they got a very clear idea of what was going on. They were right, Max confirmed their suspicions, and the victim Liza Moana suffered from abuse for long time. Chin and Cath supported that when they found out the official police reports against the husband Rick Moana, it ended up being a domestic violence case finished on murder to get the wife's will's money. Right on time, Steve, Danny and Kono went back to the suspect's house…
"Kono, you check upstairs, Danny you go to the back, I'll check downstairs…-"- Steve said
They did as told. Kono went upstairs, gun up and pointing to every door of the floor. Till she reached the last door on the left, she carefully opened it up, turned to the right and then to the left. But everything happened to fast, suddenly the guy appeared from nowhere and kicked the gun out of her hand, and started a hand-to-hand combat. The guy was taller and stronger than her so he easily thrown her to the floor. That's when Steve heard her groan over the earpiece
"KONO! Are you ok?...KONO?"
But he didn't get a reply, his insticts kicked in immediately, he ran as fast as he could upstairs, he heard the commotion on the room and went straight to it. What he saw made his blood cold and hot at the same time…
