Hello! Miss me? ;)
So I've been going through some of my documents and I found this story. I started it a while ago but it just sort of sat unfinished on my computer. I decided to work on it again so here we go! It's about 90% finished so I should be posting very regularly. My friend picked the name so don't judge me lol.
Enjoy!

The call had been one no cop ever wanted to receive. A man with explosives strapped to his chest was holding a class of eighth grade students in an elementary school hostage.
Not just any elementary school, but The Academy of the Sacred Hearts. The school that Grace Williams attended.
Steve looked at Danny the second the call came in. He saw the instant paling of his partners face as his shaky hands pulled out his phone and dialed Rachel.
"Where's Grace?!" He shouted immediately in a panic.
The team watched him intently as he suddenly closed his eyes and grasped the computer table. "Oh thank god..." He whispered. "Thank god. I'm sorry Rachel. There's a situation at her school. It's bad. Just keep her home I'll call as soon as I can."
He hung up the phone and looked at Steve. The fear and panic hadn't left his eyes yet, but it was on its way out, being replaced by sheer relief.
"What is it Danny?" Kono asked. "Is she okay?"
"Yeah uh... She's sick," Danny told them. "I never thought I'd say this but thank god she's home sick. Stomach virus..."
"She's safe, that's all that matters," Lou replied.
Steve squeezed Danny's shoulder quickly. "Gear up," he said. "We leave in five."

The second they got to the scene Steve started to take control. There were students everywhere being evacuated and reunited with a large crowd of frantic parents.
"Duke," Steve called. "I need you to get all of these people behind the barriers and out of here. We need this area clear. Has he made contact?"
"Not yet," Duke replied. "As far as we know, he's got a class of twenty eighth grade students as hostages."
Another HPD officer approached them and handed Duke a piece of paper. "This is a list with the names of the students and the teacher that are in there Sir," he said.
Duke immediately began reading the names and looked up in shock. "Danny..." He said. "This is Grace's class..."
"She's safe at home Duke," Danny told him. As relieved as he was that his daughter was safe, he couldn't stop the flood of panic and anger that went through him. It was close. Too close. If it had been any other day...
He looked up when Steve put a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "Stop that Danno," he said. "It wasn't any other day. She's home safe."
Danny smiled at him, grateful that his partner knew exactly what to say. "I want this guy Steve," Danny said angrily. "Grace may be safe, but there are nineteen other children in there. Everyone in there is someone else's Grace."
"I know buddy," Steve said. "And we're going to get them out."
Danny nodded. "Duke, you should find the parents of all the children on this list and separate them from the rest," he said. "There may be a reason this class was targeted. Maybe one of their parents has a lot of money or they're into something dirty."
"We also have to work on making contact," Chin said. "The sooner we find out what he wants the sooner we can end this."
While Duke went to work, Steve turned to Danny. "Alright give me your phone," he said.
"What? Why?" Danny asked in confusion.
"We need to make contact," Steve said. "The teacher. I know you Danny and I know that any teacher of Grace's has a cell phone number that is undoubtedly stored in your phone. Maybe he'll answer it."
"I didn't even think of that," Danny said, pulling out his phone and handing it to Steve.
"That's why I'm the boss," Steve replied.
Danny rolled his eyes. "Her name is Serena Pukai," he said.
Steve nodded and quickly found her number in Danny's contacts. He called it and put the phone on speaker. The Five-0 team huddled around the phone as it rang, waiting to see if he would answer.
"Hello?" A nervous woman finally answered.
"My name is Lieutenant Commander Steve McGarrett with Five-0. Who am I speaking with?" He asked.
"Serena Pukai," she said. "I'm being held hostage with nineteen of my students. He wants you all to stay back."
"Has he hurt anyone?" Steve asked.
"No," she replied. "He said it's not his intention to hurt anybody. But he needs something from you. If you want us all to be let go unharmed, he needs one thing. Please help us," she added desperately.
"We will ma'am," he assured her. "We'll get you out of there. What does he want?"
"He wants..." She stopped, clearly surprised at whatever she'd just been told by the man holding them hostage.
"What Serena?" Steve pressed.
"He wants Detective Danny Williams to be sent in," she finally replied. "He wants him to come in alone and unarmed. If you do this, he'll let us all go."
