Operation Christmas

Official Disclaimer

The characters of Steve McGarrett, Chin Ho Kelly, Kono Kalakaua 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, although originally based on male Danny Williams, is probably enough her own individual character by now that she can be considered mine. This also means that Grace is different as well, for a start she is called Grace Taylor, as Williams is Danni's maiden name. Taylor was her married name.

The characters of Duncan Taylor, Jack O'Connor, Poppy O'Connor, Bella O'Connor, David Williams, Libby Williams, Ryan Moore, Riona Harte and anyone else who you do not automatically recognise belong to me. Please do not use these characters without asking me first.

Part Two


Danni pulled to a stop outside of Steve's house and killed the engine, taking a moment to look at the building in front of her before her eyes landed on the blue Silverado in the driveway which indicated that Steve was at home just like she and Grace had suspected he would be.

"How are we going to do this Mamma? We need to have a good plan for Stage one" Grace asked from the passenger seat, attracting Danni's attention to her.

"Stage one?" Danni questioned, raising an eyebrow at the small brunette who nodded at her, reaching up with her hand and tucking a stray piece of dark hair which had escaped her ponytail behind her ear.

"Stage one is kidnapping Uncle Steve Mamma" She explained seriously. "Stage two is making him stay with us until at least New Year Day, we don't want him to be lonely over this holiday Mamma, especially since his Daddy is gone." She said. Danni nodded at her daughter.

"Mamma has a plan for stage one baby" She reassured the small girl who looked relieved at the comment. "All you need to do is ask Uncle Steve if you can use his toilet when we're inside, leave everything else to me." Danni commented, smiling when Grace nodded seriously at her. She glanced back towards the house before reaching out and placing her hand on the door handle. "Ready?" She asked her daughter, nodding when Grace made a sound of affirmation at the back of her throat before she spoke.

"Ready Mamma"

"Then let's get this show on the road Gracie" Danni responded as she reached down with her free hand and unlocked her seatbelt, using the other hand to open the door up. She stepped out of the car, her eyes immediately tracking her daughter over the top of the car to make sure she was safe from any passing traffic. The minute Grace was by her side, she wrapped an arm around her shoulders and led her up the garden path which led to Steve's front door.

Reaching up she knocked smartly on the door, giving Grace a reassuring smile when the small girl looked up at her before she focused her attention on the door listening carefully. She was awarded moments later when she heard the sound of muffled footsteps approaching followed by the door opening. She couldn't help the grin which came to her face when she saw Steve's passive expression melt into a look of surprise as his blue eyes flickered over her and Grace.

"Danni" He remarked, a startled tone to his voice. "Is everything okay? Why are you and Gracie here? Shouldn't you be at home getting ready for tonight?"

"Aren't you going to invite us in Uncle Steve" Grace asked before Danni could answer him, a polite tone to her voice which Steve instantly reacted to as he stepped to one side, using his free arm to wave them in.

"Yeah of course, Come in" He stated, his eyes fixed on Danni's face. Danni stepped into the hallway, glancing towards Grace when she spoke again.

"Uncle Steve may I use your bathroom please?" She asked hopefully.

"Course you can Gracie, you know where it is" He responded, watching her until she was out of sight before he turned his attention back to Danni. "Danni what's up? Has something happened?" He asked, concern lacing his voice as he reached out, placing his hand on her shoulder and squeezing down lightly on it.

"Nothing's the matter, not really" Danni replied on a sigh, looking away from him for a moment before she looked back at him, making her eyes wide.

"It doesn't sound like it's nothing" He said, keeping his gaze on her.

"It sounds ridiculous but…" She paused for a moment before she continued. "I was wondering whether if you had nothing to do you could help me get ready for today. There's so much food prep to do and I can't do it alone, or rather I can but if I do then it means that Grace would be by herself and I want to make sure that she isn't. It's the first Christmas she's had away from all her family so I want to make it extra special for her."

Steve stared at her for a moment before he glanced back towards the stairs which Grace had disappeared up, a thoughtful frown on his face before he looked back at her and nodded.

"Of course I'll help you Danni, it's not like I was doing much here anyway. Do you want me to come now?" He asked, dropping his hand from her shoulder and reaching out for the boots which he kept by the front door.

"Now would be great. You could come back with us in my car, it would save time for us all." She said, holding her keys up and giving them a slight shake. She made sure he saw her roll her eyes when he took the bait and instantly reached out and grabbed them from her.

"I'll drive" He told her, an amused gleam coming to his eyes.

"Why am I not surprised by that fact" She responded, crossing her arms over her chest and giving him a pointed look. She used the time that he was pulling his boots on to look around the living room, her heart aching when she saw how little Christmas decorations were around. It was as though Steve had attempted to decorate the house before he had given up half way through.

"You going to need help with the cooking?" Steve asked as he stood up straight attracting her attention again.

"Not from you" She responded with a slight laugh. "But I will need help prepping everything and we both know how handy you are with a knife. You're quicker than I'll be and time is of the essence today." She admitted, looking towards the stairs as Grace came down them. The small girl shot her a questioning look which turned into a large grin when Danni gave her a single nod. "We should get going, we've got a lot to do" She remarked, turning and opening the door and stepping through. She headed down the path, unsurprised when Grace immediately came to her side.

"Was Stage one a success Mamma?" Grace questioned, her voice barely audible.

"Yes it was Gracie bean" She said before she placed her fingers against her mouth to indicate that they should keep quiet in case he overheard them.

She glanced thoughtfully towards Steve as he came to a stop next to them, flashing them both a large grin as he unlocked the car, pulling open the driver's seat and climbing in as Danni made her way round the car to the passenger seat while Grace dived into the back.

Stage one of the plan had been a complete success.

Now all they had to do was figure out a way to make stage two equally as successful. Something which she already knew wasn't going to be easy.
