Wow! Thanks for all the alerts and reviews. I hope I live up to this challenge. Let me know what you think.
Danny pulled up to the Aloha Motel Apartments and parked his car. Great, just great, a real hell hole He thought to himself. He walked up to his room and reluctantly opened the door. The room was a basic motel room. A bed and a TV with a small bathroom. The surveillance equipment was set up in the corner.
Steve pulled up with his new bike and went directly to his room. Danny opened the door adjoining the two rooms.
"Nice place huh?" Danny complained
"It's not that different from your place" Steve smirked
"Funny" Danny replied "What do think about all this?"
"What do I think? I think they fucked up. They are covering their ass. That stuff usually gets destroyed immediately. There no storing of weapons and drugs. I don't know what they were doing, but whatever it was, it went bad and now they have bodies everywhere and it's their fault. We, my friend are here to clean up their mess." Steve explained
"Great!" Danny answered "Well check your file, let's see who you are"
"According to this I am Garrett Stevens, real original, just released from state prison. My rap sheet includes, drug trafficking, armed robbery, and assault. Nice." Steve rolled his eyes.
"Wow you sound like a nice guy" Danny was sarcastic
"Listen, call Kono and Chin. Let them know what is going on and I want them supporting you" Steve ordered
"They said no one is supposed to know" Danny questioned
"I don't care. I want them involved" Steve insisted
The next morning Steve reported for duty at Jake's garage. The owner was part of a prison reform program and frequently hired ex-cons as employees. He was also friends with Connor and was sure that his rap sheet was already checked out. Jake was in the business of fixing bikes and matching cons with dealers like Connor.
Danny made himself comfortable at the coffee shop across the street. The owner was Chin and Kono's cousin and they were more than happy to allow Danny to set up shop.
"Nice Bike" a deep voice with a heavy New York accent commented
"You like it?" Jake asked "It belongs to the new guy. You should meet him; he's exactly what you're looking for"
Connor approached Steve as he worked on a bike "How much for the bike?"
"What, my bike? Not for sale" Steve answered as he wiped his hands with a rag.
"Everything has a price" he was confident
"Not that. What can I do for you?" Steve asked
"Jake says that you just got released. Want to make some extra money?" Connor asked
"Sure, what do I gotta do?" Steve asked
"I'll tell you what, tonight at the old airstrip, 11:30, meet me there and we'll talk about it" Connor said "Do you race?"
"Yeah, but I don't got a racing bike at the moment" Steve responded
"You can use one of mine. Be there. If you do well in the race, I have a job that I think you'll be perfect for" Connor liked what he saw in Steve
"Cool, I'll be there" Steve answered
That was too easy Steve thought to himself.
After a full day's work at the garage, he returned to the apartment and met up with Danny. "Did you get all that?"
"Yes I did and I don't like it. That was way too easy" Danny was concerned
"I know, I think they're going to put me through some kind of test. I have got to win that race .I don't like the idea of using his bike. I need something that can guarantee me a win. Call Chin, see if he has anything I could use. We can get him set up as a plant." Steve was concerned. He needed to make sure that he had an advantage.
Two hours later there was a knock at Danny's door. He carefully peered out the window and it was Kono. She was dressed as a pizza delivery girl. The best part was that she actually had a pizza in her hands.
"Please tell me that there is actually a pizza in there" Danny wished
"Of course. Half cheese, half pineapple and ham. Where's the boss?" She asked peering through the open door that adjoined the rooms.
"He's in the shower trying to scrub the grease off him" Danny laughed
The shower stopped running and out walked Steve with a towel wrapped around his waist. His hair was wet and water dripped from his legs. His chest was bare and the thick curly hair on his chest appeared darker, accenting the muscles that adorned him. Kono couldn't help but notice and began to blush.
"You might want to put some clothes on" Danny suggested "we've got company."
"Oh, hi Kono" he closed the adjoining door and returned after he got dressed "better?" he asked as he opened the door.
Kono said "yes, much better" but she thought no keep the clothes off. A smirk evolved but she quickly dismissed her thought.
"ooh, pizza" Steve grabbed a slice and practically devoured it. "Was Chin able to come through?"
"Yes, he got a nice Bugatti. He's borrowing it from a friend. We figure he could be in the crowd and offer to have you race it for him. He's going to say that he wants to see what the bike can do. Hopefully it will work. It's completely supped up and will be very difficult to beat" Kono explained
"Do you think you can handle it?" Danny asked
"I'm going to have to" Steve answered.
They sat and finished the Pizza as they all realized that it was time to head out to the old airstrip. Steve was wearing jeans and a black T-shirt. Danny changed into jeans and a T-shirt as well. He was hoping to blend into the crowd as a spectator. Kono immersed from the bathroom in a short tight blue dress and stiletto heels. Her legs stretched out revealing a black lace garter and a push up bra gave the illusion of full breasts. Her hair was blown out and her makeup was excessive. She would be Danny's date for the evening.
She immediately noticed the stares coming from both Steve and Danny. She had to admit she was flattered. "What? That's how the girls dress to these things" she said as they gawked at her "I'm supposed to be a groupie"
"How do you know?" Danny asked as his eyes inspected her body
"I did have a life before Five-0 you know" she smiled
Steve simply raised his eyebrows. The innocent rookie isn't so innocent after all.
Danny and Kono exited the building first and Steve followed moments later. Here we go, he thought.
