Fallen Kingdom Chapter 1 – Prison Visit
Manhattan FBI Offices – Isabella King's office
Isabella King was sitting in her office going over paperwork when a knock on her door caught her attention.
"Enter," She called out as the door opened. She looked up to see a face she never wanted to see again.
"Hello Bella," The man greeted.
"You have a lot of nerve coming here." Isabella replied scathingly. She stood up from her chair and walked around her desk. She glared at the man before her with arms across her chest. "Why are you here Joe?"
Joe grimaced as he sat down in the chair in front of her desk. "You should take a seat. What I am about to tell you might make you kill me."
"Let me guess," Isabella remarked as she leaned against her desk. "McGarrett needs help?"
"You always did have great deductive skills." Joe said with a grin.
"Or it could be that his face is plastered all over the news that he killed Govenor Jameson." Isabella said with a grin as she handed Joe the New York Times with Steve McGarrett's face on the cover. "And that is just one of many that is being circulated."
Joe stared at the photo before gazing at the dark look on Isabella's face. "Will you help me?'
"Does he know that you flew all the way to New York to come see me?"
"No,"
"I'll think about it." Isabella said walking to the door and opening it. "Now get out." She ordered.
Joe nodded as he stood up from the chair. He walked to the door and stopped to look at her once more. "The flight leaves in six hours. I'm hoping you'll be there." He added before walking out of her office.
Isabella took a deep breath as she closed the door and sat back down in front of her desk. Seeing Joe and dealing with whatever Steve had gotten himself into brought up a lot of old feelings that she wanted to disappear. Isabella was lost in her thoughts once more as she looked at the photo of Steve on the newspaper. Was she ready to get sucked back in Steve's world?
(Time Skip – Williamsburg, Brooklyn – Isabella's loft)
Isabella opened her apartment door and dropped her mail on the counter beside her door. She glanced into the living room to see her mother sitting on the couch with her son watching Lilo & Stitch. They were so into the movie that they didn't notice she had come home.
"Hi Mom," Isabella greeted as she came into the living room.
"How was work?" Her mother Georgina asked not taking her eyes from the tv.
"Joe White showed up in my office." Isabella said making her mother swiftly turn to her with a look of confusion. "He wants me to go to Hawaii to help Steve." She explained as her mother clicked her tongue.
"You're going, aren't you?" Her mother asked as she got up and went to the kitchen. "After everything that man put you and Ryan."
Isabella turned to the living room and stared at her son who barely noticed that she had come home. He was still watching his movie without a care in the world. "Mom, Steve doesn't know that Ryan is his son. The day I found out I was pregnant was the day he broke things off."
"Isabella," Georgina said tiredly. "You can't keep putting yourself through these things. You have Ryan to worry about."
"Don't you think I know that? I sit up at night worrying if I am doing enough. If Ryan is happy or does he hate me for not telling him about his dad." Isabella spat as tears rolled down her face. She wiped her eyes as she looked at her mother. "I'm going to go and pack a bag for me. Can you watch Ryan for the week?"
Georgina nodded and Isabella walked out of the kitchen back to the living room. She leaned down until she was in front of Ryan. "Hi baby," She said with a smile.
"Mommy!" Ryan said with joy as he wrapped his arms around her neck.
"Were you good for Grandma?" She asked as she felt him nod his head. "I have something important to tell you."
"What's wrong Mommy?" He asked with a scared look.
"Mommy is going away on trip for a little bit. I want you to do everything Grandma tells you to do. I'll bring you something on my way back." She promised as Ryan gave her a smile that Steve used to give her.
"Okay," He exclaimed as he ran into the kitchen to tell Grandma. Isabella stood up and headed towards her bedroom to start packing. She knew that once she got to Hawaii she and Steve had a lot to talk about. She opened her dresser and pulled out a few pairs of jeans and shorts.
While she was packing her mother was leaning against her bedroom door. "I didn't mean to upset you earlier. I just want to make sure you know what you are doing." Georgina said as she sat on the bed as her daughter continued packing. "You were with him for three years and then you just broke up. You never told me what exactly happened."
Isabella looked up from her suitcase to stare at her mom. "I'm not going to speak about it until I speak with Steve. We have a lot to talk about so I need to mentally prepare myself."
"Just be careful Bella," Georgina requested as she pulled her daughter into her arms.
(Time Skip – John F. Kennedy Airport)
Commander Joe White stood on the tarmac as a black SUV pulled up. He walked towards the car as the back door opened and Isabella stepped out in an all-white pantsuit with her hair in a ponytail.
"Your dressed to the nines," Joe commented taking her bags from the driver. He motioned for her to follow him to the plane they were flying in.
"I had a meeting with the directors of several agencies. It seems your appearance in my office caused a stir with the higher ups." Isabella said sitting in one of the chairs.
"Who was in this meeting?"
"Every alphabet you could think of," Isabella said as she pulled out her laptop as it booted up. "What's the situation out in Hawaii?"
"Well Steve has been living in Hawaii for the past year running a task force for Govenor Jameson. She offered Steve the position so he could find his father's murder."
Isabella stopped typing as she stared at Joe, "John is dead?"
"Murdered in his home by Wo Fat's men. Steve has been tracking him for the last eight years." Joe admitted seeing the defeated look on her face.
"Is that why he ended things with me?"
"Could be," Joe guessed. "All I know is the two of you should really sit down and talk."
"Talking was never Steve's thing. Blowing things up was how he expressed himself." Isabella remarked with smirk.
"You sound like his partner," Joe added. "He's always complaining about Steve dragging him into war with every case they get."
Isabella chuckled as she pulled up the dossier of Hawaii Task force. She was impressed to say the least at the team success record. She had to give Steve credit where it was due, he picked well-oiled machine, if not unorthodox.
"What's the plan when we land?" Isabella asked as she closed her computer.
" As soon as we land we are heading straight for Hawala Correctional Facility. There we can speak to Steve and try to come up with a plan." Joe advised.
Isabella nodded just as a stewardess told them they were about to take off.
(Time Skip – Isabella's Hotel Room, Oahu, Hawaii)
After a ten-hour flight, Isabella and Joe decided to meet after a couple of hours of sleep. Isabella went straight to her hotel to relax after the long flight. She was sitting on her balcony hearing the waves crash on the shore as she stared at her laptop screen. Isabella was reading files one Wo Fat and his operations and she couldn't find anything that would help.
She grunted at her failure to find anything. Just as she was about to close her laptop,a a video chat popped up on her computer screen. She opened it to see her son and mother smiling at her.
"Hi Mommy," Ryan called out jubilantly.
"Hi baby, how are you?" She asked as her son told her all about his day. She listened as he talked about school and what he did at the park with his friends.
"Ryan I am happy that you had a good day. I need you to get ready for bed for school tomorrow." She relayed as her son pouted.
"I miss you," He said sadly.
"I miss you too but, Mommy has to work. Go and get ready for bed and don't forget I love you."
"I love you too," he said disappearing from the screen.
Once Ryan was gone, Georgina could see the exhaustion on her face. "How was your flight?"
"Long," She replied as she poured herself a glass of lemonade. "I'm still trying to dig up evidence to help get Steve out of prison. I'm at a dead end and annoyed with myself."
"Get some sleep Darling," Her mother requested. "Your gonna need all the energy for what's to come."
"Thanks again mom."
"I know this hasn't been easy for you. But know your father would have been proud." Georgina praised.
"Bye Mom," Isabella said ending the chat. She stood up and picked up her laptop and entered her room. While she was entering the room, she didn't notice a man watching her from a boat with sniper.
"The target is in her room," He relayed.
"Keep me posted on her every move," A voice responded.
"Understood Sir," The man said with a smirk as he drove the boat away from his lookout point.
(Time Skip – Halawa Correctional Facility, Oahu, Hawaii)
The next morning Joe and Isabella arrived in front of the prison Steve was being held. Isabella stared at the guards as she got out of the car.
"What are we waiting for?" Isabella asked Joe, who was staring at a silver Camaro pull up beside their car.
"Him," He answered as a blonde man stepped out his car. Isabella instantly knew that was Detective Danny Williams. She remembered his face from the dossiers.
"You didn't tell me that five-0 was involved."
"There not," Joe answered as he stepped towards the detective. "Officially that is." He added once they were in front of the detective.
"Hi I'm Special Agent King," Isabella greeted as she held out her hand to Danny. "How is Major Jackass?"
Danny chuckled as he shook her hand, "You know super seal?" He questioned with smile.
"Sadly, I do," She said with derision. Danny nodded as he led them into the prison and soon they were in the visiting room. "Detective Williams why don't you speak with him first." She offered, getting a confused look. "If I speak to him first I might break the glass and stab him."
Danny and Joe both chuckled at that statement as Danny sat down. Isabella watched as the guards brought Steve into the room and as he sat down across from Danny. Steve smiled at Danny briefly making the detective look at him with annoyance.
"What are you smiling at?" Danny questioned as he watched his partner stare at him.
"You're not wearing a tie." Steve says looking Danny up and down. "It suits you."
Danny looks at his partner and glares. He shakes his head and says, "Cause there is no dress code for an out of work cop."
Steve nods and continues, "You get any leads on Wo Fat?" He asks.
Danny shakes his head, "Uh, no. Not yet."
"How's your family? How's Rachel? She getting morning sickness yet?" Steve asked.
"Yeah, she's uh... She is excellent." Danny began as he ran his hand through his hair. He glances over to his right, "Listen, I know you don't like visitors, but this guy wouldn't take no for an answer, so..." Danny said getting up from the chair and letting Joe sit down.
"Let me guess, the governor had I coming?" Joe asks once he settled in the chair.
Steve chuckles as he ducks his head, "You, uh, you didn't have to come down here, sir." Steve says.
"You okay, son?' Joe questions.
"I'm fine," Steve states nonchalantly. "Nothing hell week didn't train me for."
Isabella rolled her eyes silently at the way he casually described his situation. It annoyed her how unbothered he was about being in prison. She glanced over to Danny who was staring at her with worry and understanding. She focused back on the conversation between Joe and Steve.
"Your man tells me the lieutenant governor's trying to move up your trial." Joe tells as Steve nods in response.
"I heard." Steve says stoically. "The new guy, he wants to show the public he's a zero tolerance type, so convicting me of Governor Jameson's murder is his first order of business.
"Well we are here to make sure that doesn't happen." Joe says with conviction. Joe then turns to me getting Steve's attention. "Someone would like a few words with you." Joe adds getting up from the chair and allowing Isabella to show herself to Steve. From the expression on his face he was shocked and it gave Isabella some self-satisfaction. She picked up the phone and said, "Hello Steven,"
Steve stared at her for a few seconds before replying, "Bella what are you doing here?"
"Joe came all the way to New York just to tell me you were in prison. I just had to come and see it for myself." She replied staring at his gruff exterior. "You look like you fit in well with the other criminals."
"Go home Bella," Steve ordered. "You don't know what you are dealing with."
"Actually, I do," She said getting surprised looks from Danny, Joe and Steve. "The directors of the FBI, ATF, and Interpol have given me full jurisdiction on all things Wo Fat. As soon as I leave here I will be continuing the investigation."
"Bella, he killed my father," Steve pleaded as she grimaced.
"I know that and that is why I will handle this personally. You of all people know what I am capable of." Isabella stated as Steve just stared at her. "I also have another reason that I came to see you."
"What is it?"
"We'll talk when you are not behind bars." She said getting up from the chair. "Be careful Steve," Isabella warned.
