Prologue
Danny closed his eyes for a moment and prayed. He opened his eyes when he felt a squeeze on his shoulder.
"You got this, Danny," Lou whispered before he went to the other side and took an earphone and waited for Danny's next move.
On a certain distance, Tani and Junior, both standing side by side also smiled a little as they nodded to comfort Danny in the crisis situation.
Inhaling, gaining all the bit of energy he needed, he picked up the phone and dialed.
A few rings later, a man's voice came over the. "What?" the voice snapped. Danny didn't expect anything less.
"This is Detective Williams with Hawaii Five 0 Task Force." Danny, however, spoke slowly and calmly.
"What the hell do you want?" The voice on the other end grunt again.
"I want to know why are you doing this because if there is something that you want we can work things out. Those are innocent people in there…"
The man was silent for some time and then suddenly chuckled, "What do you want me to do? Let them go?"
"They didn't do anything to hurt you and you know they don't deserve any of this. Just talk to me, why are you doing this?"
"Do you think I'm stupid enough to let them go? They are the one who is keeping me alive right now because if not, I bet you would have asked your sniper to take me out."
"That' not true," Danny said quickly, in assuring manner. "We care, Ryan."
"Wow, not even an hour and you have already figure me out, that some detective work there."
"Listen, Ryan, I know…"
"You know nothing!" Ryan yelled over the phone. His voice vibrated with anger and hatred. "You all never cared. Right now all you care about is your friend. You are only thinking about how to take him back home alive, aren't you?"
"He is not only one I care about right now, Ryan. I care about all the people in there, including you."
Ryan scoffed. "All of your mind tricks, don't think you can play it on me."
"Okay, fine. Just tell me what is that you want, Ryan?"
"I want you to tell me the truth."
Danny looked across the table and his eyes caught Lou's. Lou nodded, giving Danny the encouragement he needed.
"What you want to know?" Danny asked, hoping the conversation will lead them somewhere.
"You said you people care …that law enforcement people care, then why did they shot him?"
"Shot who, Ryan?" Danny's worried eyes glanced up and meet Lou's equally worried eyes. "Dennis?"
"Yes, Dennis." Ryan's voice was tight.
"Listen, Ryan. I know you're angry about what happened to your son."
"I lost my son! He's dead all because of you people."
"Ryan, calm down. Tell me what is it that you want?"
"I want someone to pay, someone to feel what I felt all these time."
"Ryan…" Danny started but froze for a moment when he heard the loud gunshot sound over the phone.
His eyes were open but his limbs flex in shock. Fear traveled in Danny's veins and bubbled up in his chest but he refused to let it show.
"Ryan, did you shoot somebody? Listen, Ryan, they did nothing wrong against Dennis. Please, if you did shoot somebody, they need medical attention."
"I didn't just shoot somebody, I shoot that one person that all of you care."
"Y-you mean… y-you shot…" Words stuck in Danny's throat. He couldn't get them out. He don't want to get them out.
"Yes, I shot your friend McGarrett."
Danny's hand tightened into a fist. "He didn't do anything to harm your son. He didn't even know Dennis. Ryan, please …he need help."
"It won't matter now."
"Ryan, listen to me…" Danny tried, he had to try. He can't give up, not now.
"There something you should know, Detective."
"What?" Danny held his breath.
"Your friend, McGarrett …he is dead."
