Disclaimer

The character of Steve McGarrett, Chin Ho Kelly, Kono Kalakaua, Jenna Kaye and Adam 'Toast' Charles do not belong to me in any shape or form. I am merely using them for my own entertainment purposes

The character of Danni Williams is probably mine by now. Even though she was originally based on male Danny Williams I think it's probably safe to say that's she her own individual character by now, especially since I've created a back ground for her which is different to male Danny's background in the show. This also affects Grace who is different from the show as well in ways.

The character of Riley King belongs to me as well as does any other character who are hinted at or named who you are not instantly aware of.

Author Note

Here is the second chapter of Glimpses.

This chapter was originally meant to be something else. I was planning a bright happy story and I found myself with some spare time at work so I decided 'what the hell' I'll write it at work and this is what came out.

I'm suddenly think that my friend is actually extremely clever and that whatever little plan she had is actually working because now that I've written this chapter. I've suddenly got a future chapter story in development. I can easily take this story and make something from it. It always is kick starting a desire to finish off Burn so I can jump onto the next one. As I said she's extremely clever!

I don't think there anything more for me to say now other then I hope you enjoy this chapter. I'll probably have the new sentence as soon as this goes up so I guess there should be a fresh update on Monday so please make sure that you look out for it.

"Any chance you have a moment for me Danni? I won't take up much of your time"

Danni Williams blinked, looking up from Kono Kalakaua's report which she was proof reading to see Jenna Kaye standing in the door, awkwardly moving from foot to foot in the doorway to her office. Jenna had only officially been with them for three weeks and she seemed to be fitting in but it was always hard to tell. Their work load was so intense that it was difficult for Danni to find the time to sit down with the other members of their team to see how they were doing and coping. A job which technically should have been part of Steve McGarrett's job but one which he slyly slid over to her from the very start of 50.

"Jenna hey! Yeah of course, come in and close the door behind you. I've been meaning to speak to you" Danni answered, dropping her pen onto the surface of her desk and leaning back in her chair, thankful for the respite. Kono was an amazing Officer, and god knew there was no one better out in the field but the minute she was faced with paperwork things tended to go wrong. What she said made sense, the use of language good and concise making it easy to understand. The only problem was the little mistakes which always crept in. Mistakes which Steve had notice and which had annoyed him enough for him to insist that Danni, as his second, checked Kono's work for a probation period. Something which pissed off both women and which Danni made sure to tell Steve about constantly.

Jenna nodded, stepping into the room fully and closing the door, ignoring the curious looks which were shot at her by the other members of the team as she turned back and headed over to Danni's desk, sinking into the chair opposite the other woman, her eyes flickering to the files on the desk before they focused on Danni, waiting for the other woman to speak. Danni however remained silent, large grey eyes watching her in a way which told Jenna that Danni was waiting for her to speak.

"I err…" She stopped, shaking her head as she nibbled at her lip, trying to figure out the best way of asking the woman in front of her what she wanted to ask her. It was stupid, it should have been easy. Jenna had spent the last three weeks watching, waiting until she knew that it was Danni she wanted to speak to, Danni who appeared to be the heart of the group and who appeared to be the only one with any real control over their boss Steve. Danni would understand her situation without blowing everything out or proportion.

"So you've been here for three weeks now, how are you finding it? I'm guessing it's got to be quite the change for you when compared to your former job at the CIA" Danni commented, breaking the silence as she reached forward and snagged her mug off the desk and took a sip, surprised to find it hot which meant that someone had been in her office and replaced her coffee with a fresh one when she had been out of the room.

"I'm enjoying it" Jenna remarked, her face brightening up. "It's a lot different, you guys are like nonstop, even when you're in the office it's like nonstop but that's good. I liked my old job but sometimes there were times where the days seriously dragged on and I'd end up clock watching here but there's nothing like that here." She stated.

"This has been a fairly quiet month as well so be prepared for it to be a lot busier soon." Danni remarked on a sigh, shaking her head as she took another sip of her coffee before placing the mug back on her desk. "How are you finding everyone, everyone treating you well?"

"Everyone seems nice. I mainly talk to Jack and Toast but they seem cool, willing to help and everything. I don't really see the others that much but I'm guessing that's normal?" She queried.

"Yeah it is, it's the nature of the job, we're always on the go, the Governor has decided as well that we have the ability to take on more than one case at one time spanning all the islands so that's why we've increased our numbers recently so we can split evenly down the middle, one team going to one scene and one to another. That was why we hired you, so you could be responsible for the Intel and computer work for one of the team while Toast focuses his attention on the other team." She remarked.

"You switch the teams up though right?" Jenna asked, biting at her nail.

"Yeah, when the need for it comes up." Danni answered, a slight frown coming to her face as she met Jenna's eyes thoughtfully.

"You're Steve's partner but I've noticed that you don't go out with him as much as the other partnerships seem to go out with each other." She commented glancing up from staring at her lap when Danni remained silent.

"Jenna" She remarked softly looking at her closely. "Are you in some sort of trouble?"

Jenna blinked, giving out a nervous giggled, her fingers interlocking with each other, squeezing tightly enough that the action caused her pain.

"Trouble? Me? Naw I…" her voice trailed off when Danni merely looked at her with an expression which looked almost gentle. "Okay maybe a bit" She admitted slumping down in her chair. "And I don't know who else to talk to because I don't really know anyone on the island and I can't talk to the people at home and I know you're stupidly busy and Steve said not to disturb you when you're in the office about anything non work related but I thought that maybe…"

"Breathe Jenna" Danni interrupted. "Ignore what Steve says in the office okay. He might be the big boss man while we're out in the field but when we're inside here then I'm the one who is charged and if you need to talk to something then you can always come and talk to me. If I am too busy then we'll set up a meeting after work instead okay?" She said firmly, waiting until Jenna nodded, giving her a tentative smile.

"Okay" She said slowly.

"Good, now tell me what's wrong." Danni stated, glancing up when there was a knock on her door and Steve entered, his eyes flickering between Danni and Jenna with a slight frown.

"Danni, have you got a minute?" He asked her, leaning against the frame of her door, his eyes focused on her. Jenna glanced back at Danni expecting her to wave him in but instead she shook her head at him.

"Not right now Steve, I'm in a meeting with Jenna" She stated. "And then I've got a meeting with Jack at 2.30 because he sent an email request earlier on today. Grace is with Duncan today so I don't need to leave early from work so I can fit you in at 3.30 if you're still around then?" She offered. Jenna glanced over her shoulder in time to see Steve's expression and hid a smile at the half disappointed, half affronted look he was sporting. Clearly he had thought that since he was the boss that Danni would drop everything to speak to him.

"3.30" Steve repeated, crossing his arms over his chest and staring at Danni intently. Jenna looked between them at their silent battle of will which ended with Steve sighing. "Fine 3.30" He remarked, his gaze flickering to Jenna for a moment before he looked back at Danni, his face softening in a way which Jenna hadn't seen before.

"3.30" Danni agreed, shaking her head when Steve turned and left the room, stalking across the room towards his office only to be stopped by Riley King on his way. "Jenna?" Jenna blinked, turning back round to face Danni who merely raised an eyebrow at her.

"Sorry" Jenna said, feeling flustered for a moment.

"You were about to tell me what was wrong" Danni prompted. Jenna nodded, breathing out and thinking for a moment before she launched into it.

"I'm having boy problems" Jenna said, rushing her words when she saw the way Danni's eyes widen at her comment, clearly whatever she thought she was going to say, that hadn't been it. "I met this guy and now he's turned creepy and I don't know what to do about it or who to talk to. The police aren't going to be able to help me, they'll just send me away but…" She stopped and shook her head. "I don't know who else to turn to Danni and I don't want the rest of the team to know either" She finished, biting down hard enough on her lip that she tasted blood.

For a moment Danni remained silent simply watching her then she nodded.

"Okay, tell me everything from the start" She said, making a waving motion with her hand which told Jenna without turning around that someone else was at Danni's door. It seemed a normal occurrence people coming in and out of it. She wondered briefly how Danni remained calm and focused when it must have been annoying to be constantly interrupted.

"I met this guy in a coffee shop and he seemed nice you know, he was funny and he made me laugh which hasn't happened in a while so when he asked for my number I didn't see any harm in giving it to him." She commented, dropping her eyes from Danni's and staring at her lap instead. "He messaged me straight away and asked if I wanted to go out that evening but I said no because it was the night where we were having the team get together at Chin's place so…" her voice trailed off again as she shrugged, risking a glance up to see Danni nodded.

"That seems fair enough. You don't want to bring a first date around this lot." She commented with a knowing look.

"Exactly, he seemed a bit put out by me saying no so I suggested we met another day instead and he said yes. We went out and it seemed to be going well when he turned strange. He asked me back to go to a donut place nearby and then back to his for sex. He was completely matter of fact about it and when I said no he got really funny with me and asked me who said no to sex and donuts"

"Right" Danni said slowly, drawing the word out.

"I didn't think anything of it you know. Some people are like that so when he dropped me off I went in and forgot about it and just put it down as a really bad first date which wouldn't be repeated again but this guy seems fixated on me. He won't stop texting or calling me. I blocked his number and he still managed to get around it somehow. I saw him outside my house yesterday as well. I don't know what to do. He hasn't technically done anything to me but… it's freaking me out. I think I need help Danni and I have no one else to turn to but you."

Danni nodded, glancing away from a moment as she hunted on her desk for something.

"Okay" She said, pulling out a pad and pen. "Give me his name and all the details you have on him." She said calmly, holding them out to Jenna who took them, jotting down the information Danni asked for. She passed them back, watching as the smaller woman came to her feet, her file forgotten.

"I know you don't want anyone else involved at the moment and for the moment I'll respect your request but this is dependent on what I find out on this guy. If he turns out to be dangerous in any fashion then I'll be telling Steve and the others. You're a member of this team now which makes you Ohana which means we protect you by any means necessary" She told her before she headed out of her office. Jenna blinked at her before she hurried to her feet and followed the blond out of the room noticing that Danni headed straight over to the computer table where Toast was currently working though he looked up as Danni approached, a wide smile coming to his face.

"Hey Blondie, what can I do for you?" He asked, pushing himself up straight, his hands resting on the surface.

"Nothing yet" Danni replied, logging in and bringing up Jack's spreadsheet, typing in the details that Jenna had provided her and pressing enter. Jenna stood next to her, biting at her fingernail and waiting for a hit, her heart sinking when it came up as negative, not just negative but with a note saying that the name didn't exist. "It could be an Alias or maybe something else" Danni murmured to herself, frowning slightly before she looked up at Jenna. "Where did he take you?" She asked, pitching her voice low so the others wouldn't overhear what she was saying.

"A restaurant on Maloni drive, it was Japanese" Jenna asked, trying to ignore the curious look on Toast's face.

Danni nodded, crossing her arms across her chest.

"Can you access the surveillance cameras?" She asked Jenna, who pulled a face as she shook her head.

"Steve hasn't given me access yet because I'm still on probation for another week." Danni rolled her eyes, sending a glare towards Steve's office which the other man would have caught before she looked up at Toast, giving him a considering look before crooking her finger at him.

"Toast I need you" She commented, rolling her eyes at the grin which came to the younger man's face.

"Music to my ears Blondie" He replied with a wink, moving around the table towards her and Jenna. "What can I do for you?" He asked.

"I need the surveillance footage for the Japanese restaurant on Maloni drive from…" She looked at Jenna with a questioning look.

"The Saturday before last" Jenna answered. Toast nodded, looking confused for a moment before he began typing on the computer. Danni shot Jenna a comforting look, placing her hand on her arm and squeezing for a moment before she let go of her.

"Okay I've got it" Toast said, "You want it on the big screen?" He asked. Danni glanced at Jenna with a questioning look turning back to Toast when Jenna nodded with a sigh.

"Please" She remarked, her gaze going to the screen.

"What am I looking for?" Toast asked.

"Jenna" Danni replied. Toast raised an eyebrow before he shrugged and began running through the footage. "Stop" Danni said suddenly, holding out her hand. "Go back a tiny bit!" She instructed, her eyes narrowing slightly. "Okay and pause" She stated turning back to Jenna. "Is that him?" She asked. Jenna stated at the screen for a moment before she nodded. "Toast highlight his face and put him through all the databases we have. I want a name for him." She told Toast.

"Okay" He said slowly as he did what he asked. "It's probably going to take a while to co-" Toast's words ended abruptly when the screen flashed red with a beep which told them that they had a match. Jenna read the screen, feeling sick as her heart sank, her gaze going to Danni who had stilled.

"Toast" Danni said softly. "Gather Steve and the rest of the team. I think we have an emergency on our hands" Toast nodded, hurrying away to the offices and began knocking on the doors.

Danni turned to Jenna and breathed out sharing a look with her.

This had suddenly gotten a lot more complicated than either of them had anticipated.
