The characters of Steve McGarrett, Kono Kalakaua and Jenna Kaye don't belong to me in any shape or form. I'm merely borrowing them for my own entertainment
The Characters of Danni Richardson and Kevin Miller do belong to me though so please don't use them without asking my permission.
If you come across any other characters who you don't know then it's likely that I've created them as well.

So here's a brand new offering for you all.
Although I've often worked with simply replacing male Danny with female Danni and seeing what happened I have also written several saga where both of male and female Danny/Danni were in the same story because I was curious about what would happen, how they would be towards each other for example. Sometimes I did this by having them both in 50 as you will find out from the Bomb story which will soon be up and other times by giving Danni a different job on the island and seeing how she reacted to it.
In this particular saga, Danni is the head of the 'Brain Squad' which is the name for the internal 50 team. It's a lot of fun writing her like this.
I love writing Danny / Danni and a saga like this allows me the best of both worlds.
Anyway I hope you are willing to give it a chance and I guess there's nothing else to say except enjoy!
Overall summary
Steve McGarrett knew that it would be a bad idea to fall in love with his team mate Danni but sometimes knowing something and actually doing it is another thing. Now all he has to is convince her that she's in love with him as well… something which will be easier said than done. (McDanni – Part of the Danni world)

Hints of Steve McGarrett / Danni Richardson
Chapter One
Early morning
Danni Richardson sipped at her latte, leaning her back against the cool mirror in the elevator she was in. It was a Monday morning and she was seriously wishing that it wasn't. If it hadn't of been then she would still have been in bed, fast asleep. She had gone drinking with Kono Kalakaua and Jenna Kaye the previous evening and somehow their one casual drink had ended in several drinks and a dance in one of the clubs. Clearly they had been mad to do it but somehow it had seemed like such a good idea at 11.56 the previous evening.
Danni sighed, reaching up and covering the hickey on her neck with her palm, a rueful smile coming to her face as she shook her head, flashes of memories coming back to her. The guy had certainly been cute. A banker or an investment broker or something who had been two years older than her with thick dark hair, blue eyes and a sun tan. Byron his name had been or perhaps it had been Brandon, she was positive that it started with a B though. He had given her his number and taken hers as well so now she had the fun task of waiting to see if he would call her or not. She hoped he did, Danni always enjoyed the whole process of a first date and if the hickey was anything to go by he had definitely been keen enough.
She took another sip of her drink, glancing up at the moving numbers casually. She picked her bag up when the lift stopped on the third floor and stepped out into the corridor, looking around her absently before she turned to the right and headed toward the glass doors which were the entrance to the 50 task force. A task force she was head Analyst and IT expert for. She had her own mini team within the larger task force who she called the Brain Squad, a nickname which had stuck. There were four of them in total, four geniuses which were the best the government had to offer even if they hadn't exactly started off conventionally.
Danni pushed open the door and looked around her, unsurprised to see most of the team were already there, talking to each other and relaxing before their morning meeting. She raised an eyebrow and headed over to the large separate area which was her domain. She could already see that Jenna and Kevin Miller were there on their computers. It looked at first glance like Kevin was teasing Jenna who was slumped over her desk, clearly regretting the last Tequila shot she had, had the night before. Danni grinned opening the door.
"Hey guys" She said brightly, her grin widening at Jenna's moan.
"I'm dying Danni-girl" The older woman said, not moving her head. "Literally dying, in fact dying would probably be less painful than what I'm experiencing right now,"
"I tried to warn you" Danni said, placing her bag and coffee on her desk and looking at the post it notes which had been left for her, giving her jobs to do, everyone always needed something from them.
"I know, I know don't rub it in" Jenna complained finally looking up. Danni winced in sympathy taking in Jenna's pale face and bloodshot eyes. She looked rough.
"Maybe you should have phoned in sick" Danni said quietly, "I could tell Steve you're not well and you could go" She offered. Jenna considered the offer for a second before she shook her head.
"He'd know the reason behind it soon enough and then I'll be subjected to a lecture, at least in this office you're the boss and you'll just let me stay here and die" She said causing Danni to laugh, leaning forward and patting Jenna's shoulder.
"That I will" She said before she looked at Kevin.
"What about you sunshine, you all good?" She asked him
"Yep, all good Boss" He replied, twirling on his seat.
Danni smiled at him, taking her seat and powered up her computer. She glanced towards Jenna when she suddenly nudged her.
"Steve" she hissed at her, "He's looking at you again"
Danni raised an eyebrow, risking a glance out of the windows. It certainly looked like he was looking. Now this was something she could have some fun with.
