Chapter 2: Run and Shoot
Steve stared at Danny as he sat in the car with his arms crossed. "Danny… Don't you think we should talk about this?" Steve asked encouragingly. "What is there to talk about. It's simple. You let Grace go to a party and what happened? SHE GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT AND BROKE HER ARM! Why and the hell would you let her! Huh?" "Because-" "No Stop. I don't want to hear it. Just leave it." "Danny! It has been 2 days since Grace got hurt and you're still mad at me-" "Because you were supposed to watch her! Not let her go to a party with under age drinking! God Steve! Gracie could've gotten killed! I mean, how am I supposed to trust you if you let my daughter go off and do things like this. How? How can we repair this? I don't think we can." Steve didn't respond because he knew Danny would just interrupt again. Steve tilted his head, his eyes on the moving blacktop. He knew he should tell Danny the truth but what good what that do? Suddenly, Steve's phone rang in his pocket and he pulled it out. Kono and Chin. He answered putting it on speaker and asked, "What do you got?" "Nothing on campus. All his teachers said he was a good kid. Got good grades, studied hard, no problems. If anyone knew what was going on, it would be his friend Ethan Kyle. The 2 were basically inseparable. We are gonna head over to check on that now. You guys all good?" Kono asked. Steve looked towards Danny and then back to the road. "As good as we'll ever be for now. We are pulling up to the house now. Call you guys later." Steve said sadly. "Bye" They both said hanging up. Steve parked the Camaro and got out. Over the car he watched Danny get out with sad eyes.
Steve walked around the front to meet Danny and walk to the front door. Steve was walking before Danny as the rounded the corner of the house that lead to a drive way. His thoughts were clouding his judgment so he couldn't hear the window opening aside the door. He was watching his feet move up and down as he walked up the pavement. The next thing he knew, he was on the ground, a burning sensation in his shoulder. He heard Danny call his name and he looked up to the door to see a gun sticking out of the window. His SEAL senses quickly kicked in, his body moving before he decided anything and he got to cover behind the corner of the house. Close to his head he could hear the bullets ricocheting off the house. He flinched his head away from the edge of the house and turned to his right to find Danny crouching, his gun drawn. "You ok?" "Yea. Yea. Just got my shoulder. I guess someone inside doesn't want us to come in." Steve said trying to twist around the corner a little to get a clear shot. "Yea. I guess." "There is a door in the back I think that connects to the alley. I'll go around back and you stay here to try and avert his attention. Alright?" Danny nodded and Steve ran past his to the other side of the house. The door was on the right and Steve was running to the left, another house only a yards away. Steve ran up the side of the house to the back, keeping low so he didn't draw attention. He reached the end and put his back to the wall listening for anything.

Kono and Chin could tell something was off with the 2. Ever since that accident Danny has been an ass to Steve. Neither of them could tell what was going on in the boss man's head and the only one that could was the cause of this craziness. When they called, they could feel the tension through the phone. They had to figure this out and put an end to it because it was disrupting the whole team. Without the 2 boys, things would fall apart.

Steve didn't hear anything except for a few gunshots upfront. He peaked around the corner and saw no movement so he made his move. He quickly ran to the back door, a screen door, and cut the screen. He opened it and made his way inside, clearing the rooms as he went by. He didn't see anything so he proceeded to the front door where the shooter was located. He saw the man, an asian, standing with his gun out the window. "Freeze! Five-0!" He shouted as he got near. The man turned around gun in the air, hands in surrender. He had a wicked smile on his face as he turned around. "Danny! Got 'em! Come on in!" Steve notified Danny. "You know, you're a lot smaller and less scary than he described you." The asian said. "Shut up." Steve said as he started to walked towards him to handcuff him. The man whistled and a bunch of men surrounded him. "What? I clear the place!" Steve said shocked. "Didn't check good enough." The Asian man said and he waved his left hand in circle motions. The men around him started to slowly close in and all Steve could wonder was where was Danny? Steve was tensing getting ready to take them when someone quickly shoved something in front of his face. Chloroform. "D-danny." Steve tried to say as he got woozy. The last thing he remembered was looking at a ceiling while hands grabbed him to carry him. Then everything was black.
Danny was coming out from his hiding place and thinking to himself. Why do I have the bat-shit crazy partner? Huh? He head some talking and just thought it was Steve reading the Miranda rights to the suspect but then he heard shuffling and stuff getting knocked over. He quickened his pace to get in the house to find nothing but stuff on the floor. He hear the back door slam shut and swiftly ran to the back and out the door. In the alley was a van, no licenses plates but a few men carrying something to the inside. Steve. "Hey! Stop!" He shouted but it was useless. They just rapidly threw Steve into the van, got in themselves and started the van. The man in the passenger seat, an asian, saluted him and they drove off. Danny tried to run after them, even took a few shots at the van. Nothing happened and eventually he stopped as the van image got tinier and blurrier. Danny bent over, put his head between his knees and then looked up. He put his bottom lip over his top and turned around to go back to the Camaro to get an APB on Steve and call the rest of the team. That was it. Steve was gone and the last thing Danny said to him was "How can we repair this? I don't think we can."
