Spoilers for " Po'ipu"

This is my first fan fic so sorry for the grammar mistakes and not so great plot...

Disclamer: I own nothing Hawaii Five-O related...

set during the fight scene between Steve McGarrett and Nick Taylor

Steve McGarrett saw the sharp blade of a knife flashing towards him as he lay on the ground and he switched to auto-pilot before reacting with his SEAL instincts. His hands grasped the handle of the knife and he heaved upward with as much force as he could muster, sending his opponent off balance for just a second. That second was all he needed. He reached back and grabbed his gun, ripping it out of the holster and quickly aiming, but Taylor was faster. Taylor had been keeping a taser in his back pouch just in case something like this were to happen. He brought the device to McGarrett's neck, and before Steve could even realize it he was filled with an excruciatingly painful sensation that all but obliterated His ability to think and he was almost instantly unconscious.

Nick Taylor felt his "old friend" go limp between his arms. For a moment he felt something like remorse at what he had just ended between the man he was holding and himself. "we could have been buds for years to come if you hadn't screwed this up McGarrett." he muttered half to himself.

That feeling was doused when he heard a door opening from inside the house. He knew it wouldn't be the cheap guns for hire that he had chosen to help on this task. They were more of a diversion so that way he could find the general and dispose of him while they were preoccuping the Five-O task force's thoughts. He had known when he chose them that they wouldn't last long but he thought that they would have lasted longer than this. O well... Leave it to McGarrett to build a top notch task force in such a short time.

That gave him an idea. why not take McGarrett hostage and ask that in exchange for the Commander's life, the Five-O task force must give him General Pak? The brilliance of his own ideas amazed him sometimes.

He slipped into the bushes just as he heard " Kono you check around front, Chin the sides, and I'll look for Steve here. Be careful Nick Taylor is still out there, unless Rambo has already put him out of his misery."

"Aww cute nickname McGarrett. Rambo, I'll have to remember that one." Taylor whispered. He heard a soft jingle, like the noise you would hear from a cat's bell. "there's our cue." He said to Steve maliciously. Taylor dragged the ex-SEAL's dead weight towards an unmarked black van with the ex-SEAL's head lolling against the ground leaving a trail in the dirt behind them.

"Kono did you find him?"

"No, not a trace..."

"Chin?"

"Sorry brah, no luck."

"Me neither. I hate to say it but I think we have to put the general and his family's safety before Steve's at the moment. Steve better not annoy me by doing the exact opposite of what I want and getting shot to protect that monster."

"that would be something he would do."

"yea."

"Hey guys look over here." Kono had walked up to the water's edge and at her feet lay a trail which had been mostly washed away in the waves. She shoved her way into some bushes, still following the trail, with Chin and Danny following close behind.

"Oh no..."

*cowers* Cliffhanger I know. Sorry! Please tell me your thoughts anyway though.
