What Kono Did – Chapter 2

Authors Note: I changed the scene where Kono found Captain Fryer in her house, only because I couldn't find the script and I didn't know where in the episode it happened. I also changed things from the original story to fit this story.

If it ends of having anything to do with current story, it's purely coincidental.

Watching Chin walk away hurt like hell, but it was her own fault. Kono was doing everything on her own just to prove she could get her badge back on her own. Doing this alone was difficult at times, mostly lonely. She missed them like crazy and deep down, she wished that she could include them in on what's going on, but she kept telling herself this was the best way.

Thinking back to the day that changed everything, Kono had come home to find Captain Fryer waiting for her. It was a surprise though, but she could tell that there was something that he wanted to tell her.

"What do you want?" Kono had asked as she glanced at the large file in his hand. "What's that?"

Captain Fryer watched her as she closed the door before he even said a word. "I have a proposition for you!"

"And that is?" Kono crossed her arms over her chest, waiting expectantly.

"I'm here unofficially of course." He stepped forward. "The department doesn't know I was here. You never saw me."

"So!" Kono promoted him to continue. She just wanted this whole day over. It was the worst week ever!

The captain was quiet for a moment, wondering how he should begin to ask her to do this for him. "Have you heard of Frank Delano?"

Kono nodded. "Okay, I'll bite! He was once a good cop that got fired for taking bribes one to many times...amongst to other things, but he never once went to jail."

"That's because he had friends in high places."

It was kinda obvious, Kono thought dryly to herself.

"During my unofficial investigation, I discovered that Delano was working with Wofat and as we now know, Wofat was working with the late Governor. It all made sense, why Delano got off basically Scot-free but they were smart, there wasn't any kind of paper trail on the surface, nothing substantial that I could use, but I kept digging, and I found the connection, but with the department so corrupt, I couldn't bring my evidence to light, but I kept chipping away, and then you and McGarrett were arrested, I knew I had my in – you! You are going to get the evidence I need to put Delano and Wofat away for good."

It took Kono aback. She didn't know she was still needed and if this helped clear her name, she was definitely on board with this, but Steve had to be apart of this. This is what he's been working so hard for, to get Wofat, why couldn't he be involved in this? It was important to him that he be the one to take Wofat down, especially since he had his parents murdered. It should be Steve! It had to be.

Maybe once Kono had the evidence that she needed, she could bring the team in on this. It would be like old times and sorely wished none of this was happening. It hurt to think about even hurt worse when she heard that they'd replaced he with some blonde bimbo, but she understood that they needed someone right now to do what she did. In the end, she didn't know if they would want her back, after all the things she's about to do. That is, if she did this! She didn't even know what she wanted at the moment.

"I need your help with this, Kono. I can't do it alone." Captain Fryer pleaded with her. He needed her help.

Interesting, Kono thought. "Wofat did this to me?" She knew why she was arrested, but she was sure that they were safe in all this and never thought it would come back to haunt them.

"Yes, unfortunately. If I could have stopped it, I would have, but my hands were tied." The Captain had said. "It has to end like it did, in order for this to work!"

"That ruined my life and my career and you expect me to work with you to take them down? You got to be kidding me!" Kono was more than intrigued with this assignment, but it pissed her off more than she had realized. Wofat took her life and her job away. He's got to go down for it!

"I know and I am truly sorry, but if you help me on this case, I will clear your name, and we can take down Wofat and his associates."

"Why not just bring in Five-O? McGarrett has a lot of information on Wofat. Besides which, isn't there a warrant out for his arrest. Just bring him in."

"We could, but this has to be done by something who isn't connected to Five-O or HPD" Captain shrugged, "And we later on, we can bring the team on."

That made sense to Kono and she knew that if she was going to do it, she was going to have to do it her way and to do that, she needed to push them all away to do this. If it looked like they were close, Delano and even Wofat would be suspicious. They had to believe that she cut all ties with them.

The more Kono thought about it, the more she wanted to bring Wofat down and whatever the cost. Not just for her, but for Steve, Mary and his parents as well! It was important to do this right. "All right, I do this, but I do this my way!"

Captain Fryer smiled at her. "It's gonna get rough. You're going to be doing things that you never every thought you'd be doing. You're going to see things that you never seen in your career as a cop. Are you sure you're ready for this?"

In her short time as a cop, Kono had done and see things that she shouldn't as a rookie, but she's been able to deal with it and move on. She just hoped that she would be able to that this time. "I understand." She nodded. "I know what I need to do!"

"This is everything that you need to know about both Delano and Wofat." Captain Fryer handed her the file and she thumbed through it.

Suddenly the door bell rang, bringing Kono out of her reverie. She went over the door, stood in front of it and took a deep breath. If it was who she thought it was, she was going to have to get it together or she'd blow this big tune!

"Get it together Kono!" Kono told herself, then she flashed back to her first night with Delano. He'd asked her to get information on a bust, but to really prove she was trustworthy, he took them to a small bank in town, and rob it. There was one casualty, the guard. He was a younger man in his thirties and he shot first. Her first instincts, grab a gun, and shoot. She didn't even think twice, she pulled a gun from Delano and shoot the young man.

At first, Kono was a little shaken, and Delano pulled the gun from her hands, and they all rushed out of there with the money. That was the first time they slept together. It was worst than losing her badge and being humiliated on TV.

"Okay, Okay!" Kono said to herself when there was a knock at the door. "I knew what I was getting into. Get it together!" Kono took a deep breath.

"Kono!" The voice on the other side of the door called. It was Delano and he seemed a bit impatient. When he wanted something, he wanted it now, and he didn't want to wait!

"Hey, hold on, I'm coming!" Kono took a deep breath and opened the door, plastered a smile on her face. "I'm sorry. I was otherwise occupied." She smiled at him again and stepped back to allow them in.

Delano walked passed her with a smile on his face and they all made themselves at home. Kono rolled her eyes, shut the door, and walked into the living room, sitting next to Delano. He reached over and put his arm around her, pulling her close. She was beginning to feel nauseous but she pushed the feeling aside to play her role.

"That information proved useful," Delano kissed her head. "Wofat is very happy with you. I am very happy with you!"

The former cop looked up at him and smiled. Kono could tell that he was about to ask her to do something huge.

"There is something that we need you to do..."

"What?"

"I need you to steal all the information that McGarrett has on Wofat."

What? Kono looked at him curiously, though she tried to keep that hidden. There was no way she was going to go back into H5O headquarters and steal that information. It was like Fort Knox thanks to Chin! Maybe it was time to bring the gang in on this! This was proving to be a bigger job than she had expected.

"Okay! I will see what I can do for you and Wofat."

The former detective picked up the remote, put his feet on the table, and turned the TV on, flipping through the stations. His gang went into the kitchen and came back with beer and one of them had the plate that Chin had brought for her earlier in the day. Kono sat back and sighed. When did her life become this? It had to change and soon!

Wofat and Delano were careful about what they asked from Kono. It was almost as though they hadn't quite trusted her yet and now they're asking her for a big thing. Maybe she was making some progress and they'd let her in on some of the big things, though she was present when a few of them were taking place.

Just the day before, Kono was with Delano at some abandoned warehouse with business partners exchanging drugs and money, but the business partner double crossed him by giving him dirty drugs and he shot them. It happened so fast, Kono didn't know if what she was saw was real or her mind playing tricks on her.

"Clean this up!" Kono remembered Delano saying. "This goes no further – Wofat will know about this!" He stuffed his gun in the back of his pants and adjusted his jacket. He turned to face Kono. "I do apologize this. I wasn't expect that to happen. Shall we go to dinner?" It was like it never happened for him.

Kono just gave a smile and nodded. She didn't know how, but she some how managed to record the whole exchange on her phone, and sent it to Captain Fryer all without anyone knowing. It would be better if she wore a wire or a camera, but that would be something they'd expect from her and there were times that she wouldn't have been able to wear it at all, if she had to sleep with one of them. And she had to do that more than once. She hated it but it was apart of the job.

"Kono, this is really good!" The guy said, who'd had her dinner, brought her out of her thoughts.

That irritated Kono to no end. That was meant for her and this idiot was eating it. She found herself thinking about grabbing a gun and shooting the bastard for such a little thing and even almost reached for Delano's gun and pulled away quickly. Oh god, what am I thinking? This isn't me? I'm not some horrible person who would kill someone over a stupid meal. "That was my dinner, but you go ahead and eat it!" She snapped. It was better blow his head off!

Remembering the family brought her back down to earth and kept her cool. She was really beginning to miss them and wished that this was all over soon! She would do whatever she could to get back into their good graces.

"Hey baby!" Delano cooed. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing!" Kono sat back with Delano and they resumed watching TV.
