A/N: So I had a hard time getting this chapter up. For some reason my muse decided it needed a little change. Again everyone reviewing, following and reading this story, mahalo.

Chin and Kono were both working on several leads. Kono dug up everything she could find on Zack Kealani. Joey's file was at least 30 pages long.

Chin was working on Yosuke Kuroda. Kuroda wasn't a popular fellow. Yakuza doesn't like his ways but he has been able to work with every gang there is on Hawaii and even outside the US. So they all let him be and do his thing. He brings money, drugs and weapons to the Yakuza. But this guy was very slippery. Whenever he got arrested most cases never made it to court because of errors or witnesses that've gone missing. He even has his own fall guys. People that will cop to anything just to make sure that Kuroda walks away. Chin sighed. Kuroda owns fifteen houses and apartments. Fifteen addresses to check out and make sure Zack isn't in one of them. And on top of those fifteen addresses, he also a few empty lots. Five in total. He looked at Kono's office and saw his cousin stretching her arms and working out the kinks in her neck. He walked to her office. "What have you got so far?"

"Besides more research, nothing concrete. Most of the people in his file are law abiding citizens. His aunt and Yosuke are the only one worth checking out. And you?"

"I've got a few addresses to check. But maybe we can visit the aunt first." Chin opted. Kono quickly got up and was thankful that she could go outside. She and Chin ordered Loco Moco and ate in the office. It was close to three o'clock and Kono was dying to get some fresh air.

Chin smiled at his cousin and like her he was also happy to go out. He took out his cell phone and called McGarrett. "Steve, Kono and I are going to check out Kealani's aunt. She lives on Judd St." Chin drove to Judd St. It was a short drive. They pulled up to the house of Lana Kealani.

Kono rang the bell and an elderly woman opened the door. "Miss Kealani?"

"Yes, who are you?" Lana Kealani asked as she eyed the two strangers.

"I'm lieutenant Kelly and this officer Kalakaua, we're with Five-0. We'd like to ask you a few questions about your nephew."

"Zack? What has he done now?"

"Can we come in?" Chin asked the lady.

"Off course." She led the officers to the living room. "Please, have a seat. Would you like some tea?"

"No, thank you ma'am."

"When is the last time you spoke to Zack?"

"A few days ago. He told me he did something bad. Zack's life hasn't been easy. My sister never gave him the love and attention he needed. She was always too busy with drugs or her lousy choice in boyfriends. I begged her to let Zack stay with me but she thought that Ken would hurt Zack. But Ken never touched Zack, I don't care what CPS said. Lu would do anything to get attention. I asked Zack if his father ever hurt him. He always denied but admitted to me that she would hit him with a stick. That summer before Lu died he stayed with me. He said that he didn't want to go back to LA. His mother was dating a real jerk. Unlike Ken, Bert hit Zack almost daily. I lost it when I heard it and called Lu. She said that it wasn't my business and I had no clue what was going on. I threatened to keep Zack with me but she threatened to press charges. I had a decent job and I couldn't afford a run in with the law. He must heard me on the phone cause the next I knew Zack was losing it. He stormed into the room and took the phone away from me. He was saying all these crazy things."

"Like what?" Kono asked.

"He said that he would kill her. Slit her throat to make her suffer and that he would take his time with Bert. He begged me not to let him go back to them but my hands were tied. The only thing I could was start a procedure but that would take too long. Besides she lived in LA, according to the lawyer I spoke, he said that my chances were slim." Lana Kealani looked at Chin and Kono and knew that her nephew had done all those hideous things. She started sobbing.

"Miss Kealani, do you have any idea where Zack is?" She shook her head.

"Maybe he's with Yosuke. Yosuke and he are like brothers. Yosuke has done many things but he has always been there for Zack. I can't believe he killed Lu. When I received that phone call, that Lu had been murdered, I never suspected Zack to be responsible. He was just a teenager." She started to sob again. "I've failed him. It's my fault she's dead.

"Miss Kealani, you did your best. Zack committed these crimes. He made that choice." Chin tried to reassure her. She shook her head.

"No, if I had just filed for custody or told CPS." Kono interrupted the old lady.

"It's not your fault. He killed two couples, killed another woman and severely injured her boyfriend. That is not your fault. But you can help us get Zack the help he needs. Is there a place where he and Yosuke would go?" Kono asked.

"I really don't know. When they were kids they would camp out in the jungle."

"Did Zack ever mention a specific area?"

Lana shook her head. "That was his special place. One that Yosuke shared with hem after Yosuke's father was made first lieutenant for the Yakuza. Miko, Yosuke's mother wasn't too pleased with Yoshi's rise to infamy. Miko took the boy's camping and they were able to go on their own regularly.

"Do you know where we can find Miko?"

"Miko died ten years ago. She and Yoshi were killed in a car accident."

Chin and Kono looked at each other and new they had hit a dead end. They both got up. "Thank you for your time and if you can think of anything else please don't hesitate to call." Chin said as he gave his card to the old lady.

"Please, stop Zack. As much as I love my nephew, he has to be stopped." She walked the two officer's to the door and watched them drive away. She shook her head, she still couldn't wrap her head around the fact that Zack killed all those people. He killed his own mother and she couldn't hold back her cry anymore and she walked to the living room. She looked at the pictures of her sister with Zack. Where did it go wrong?

Chin and Kono sat in the car. Lana Kealani gave them a lot of information but nothing concrete. They knew that Yosuke was a key figure in all of this but there was no way getting near this guy without a warrant. Full immunity and means or not. They needed hard evidence. "I am going to cross reference property of Miko and Yoshi Kuroda with Yosuke's maybe we can find something that may be a remnant of their past."Chin said as he drove back to the Palace.

"I still have a few things to check. I won't be long so after I've finished, I'll help you with the rest of the properties owned by Yosuke." Chin nodded and the cousins got out and both went their own way.

Meanwhile Zack Kealani was planning his next move. So yeah he messed up with Logan Kimball but he intended to make Joey Ryan pay for that too. He had the perfect hiding space. Right under the nose of Joey. He made arrangements to grab Joey inside the hospital. He told the guys to rough him up a bit. He also had a backup plan. Joey was staying at the Hilton and Kaleo works at the Hilton as an usher. If plan A didn't work they would have to use plan B and Kaleo was an important pawn in his little game of chess. Zack smiled as he looked into the mirror. Joey Ryan would die on the same island he was born. He made a few calls. He knew Joey. He did his homework and knew the cop cared deeply for Logan and that was his fatal flaw. He chuckled. Everything was coming along nicely. It wouldn't be long for him to exact his revenge. Zack laughed. He had Nahoa tailing Joey. There were only two people who knew Zack's plan. One of them was Yosuke, he provided Zack with a place to stay. And a place where he could set up shop for everything he had planned for Joey Ryan. The other one was Nahoa. He and Yosuke had always been there for him. They were his brothers and they would never sell him out. Both were happy to help him. Yosuke hatred for cops was born the day his parents were killed and Nahoa's hatred for cops was there from the minute he was born. He had told Nahoa that he wanted Joey as quickly as possible. He had no intention of dragging this thing out any longer. He finally perfected his special cocktail. One designed for Joey Ryan only. He knew Joey was a fighter and he wanted the detective to be less complacent. That son of a bitch ruined everything for him. He was so close to getting his next victims when Joey connected the evidence. So he would make him pay.

Basically he needed Joey unconscious and unfocused. He had studied every toxin there was and was able to make a nice cocktail that would render the detective unconscious for at least five to six hours. And when he woke up he would be disoriented and unfocused. And that's when Zack would finally get his revenge. It was a two hour drive from the hospital to his special torture base and Nahoa would call him as soon as he had Joey. Zack couldn't stop smiling at his marvelous plans. He walked to the living room where Yosuke and his family were sitting. "I have to go now. Thanks for the wonderful dinner, Linda. It was nice to see you and the kids." Truth was he couldn't stand Linda but she was family and he promised Yosuke that he would behave. He gave her a peck on the cheek and hugged his nieces. He really did love his nieces, Noa, who just turned twelve and Ren, who'd be nine in two months. "I'll call once I have the package." Yosuke nodded.

"Just make sure that the package isn't to damaged once you get it." Yosuke said as he winked at Zack.

Joey was sitting in the back of the Camaro. He had this feeling and it wasn't a good feeling. He needed to see Logan, just to make sure he was alright. On the way to the hospital they made a quick stop. Steve and Danny got out. "We'll be right back." Steve said. When Steve and Danny returned he could Danny was holding a paper bag and Steve a manilla envelope. Steve gave the folder to Joey and Joey opened it. It contained the evidence, report and photo's of a crime scene. He looked at the date. At first he was confused bu then he read the file. This was the case report for Kenjiro's death. "How did you manage to get this? When I asked for it they told me that the record was sealed and that I didn't have the security clearance to access this file."

"I know, when you went through the files at HQ I texted a friend of mine. The reason that this file was classified is that Kenjiro Kuroda was working with the FBI. Someone found out and that's why he got shanked." Steve explained. Joey was surprised to hear that but knew that this wasn't relevant to his case. However he read the file closely and wondered if he could use it in his advantage.

Danny was enjoying his malasada and Joey was surprised that Danny actually manage to eat anything else. "Do you want a malasada? Danny asked Joey.

"No, thanks I'm still full from lunch." Joey said as he shook his head. "Is it possible to have some uniforms stand guard outside Logan's room?" He asked. They were on their way to the hospital and he had this gut feeling.

"I already arranged for that when we were at Kamekona's." Danny said as he took a bite of his malasada, which earned him two very confused looks.

"When did you do that?" Steve asked. "I didn't see you on the phone."

"When the two of you were so caught up in your own little world." Danny said as he took another bite of his malasada. He glanced in the mirror and saw that white van again.

"Thank you, detective." Joey said.

Danny nodded and ate the rest of his malasada. Still wondering how something so unhealthy could taste so wonderful.

Steve pulled up to the hospital. "Listen, Danny and I are going to see if Chin and Kono got something useful from the aunt. We'll pick you up in an hour or so."

"Yeah, take your time. I'm not going anywhere." Joey said as he departed the car. "Oh I forgot in case you need to contact me here's my number." Joey said as he pulled out one of his cards and gave it to Steve. Joey walked to the entrance of the hospital. Danny saw the white van stopping and a heavy Samoan fellow got out.

"Huh, that's weird." Danny said.

"What is it?" Steve asked his partner.

"That's the same van we saw at the airport and then on Ala Moana."

"You think they were following us?"

"Let's just say I don't have a good feeling about this. Someone just got out of the van and walked into the hospital." Danny and Steve both exited the vehicle and walked to the white van. The driver sped off when he saw Steve and Danny approach.

"Danny, write down the plate number." Steve said as he pulled out his phone and Joey's card.

Joey stepped into the elevator. Just as the doors were closing a Samoan looking guy stepped into the elevator. Joey nodded to the guy. A feeling of discomfort started settling in Joey's stomach. He pushed the button for the fifth floor. "I forgot, they moved him to a different floor." His phone rang. "Ryan."

"Where are you?"

"In the elevator."

"Are you alone?"

"No, but I'm almost on the fifth floor. Don't worry, I'll tell him you'll bring his present personally."

Before Joey got to say another word a rope found its way around his neck. He dropped his phone.

"Joey, Joey. Danny, something's wrong." They ran into the hospital. "He said something about getting off on the fifth. I'll take the stairs" Steve said as he took the stairs and Danny waited for the elevator.

Joey was struggling for air. He finally managed to get his hands between the rope. Just as he was finally able to catches breath he felt a small prick in his neck. He was starting to feel sluggish and drowsy. His limbs suddenly became heavy. The guy moved in closer. Joey knew it was now or never. He lashed out one more time and hit the guy on the nose. A loud crack was heard and the guy dropped to his knee. Joey was fighting to stay awake. He faintly heard the peep of the elevator and stumbled out. He could hear someone shouting his name but he couldn't answer and closed his eyes not being able to fight whatever sedative he was given.

Steve came out of the stairwell just as the elevator door opened. Joey stumbled out and Steve ran towards the elevator while yelling for a doctor. The second elevator opened and Danny stepped out. "Danny check on Joey." A doctor and nurse rushed to Joey's aid. Steve slapped the cuffs on the guy. Who was bleeding profusely from his nose and was whimpering like a little child. Steve spotted a syringe on the floor. "What was in the syringe?"

"I think my nose is broken."

"What was in the syringe?" Asked again as he took the guy by his collar.

"I don't know, he just told me that it would knock him out for a few hours. Listen, I need a doctor my nose hurts man. And I don't feel so good."

"Shut up." Steve said angrily. Move and I'll shoot you. Danny, how is he doing?"

"I don't know. His pulse is slow, his breathing is ragged." Danny said as he made room for the doctor and nurse.

"So, we know he's been drugged." Steve stated.

"Yeah, we only don't know what they gave him." Danny countered. Joey was carried onto a gurney and wheeled into the elevator. A nurse placed an AMBU bag over his mouth while another nurse squeezed in air every five seconds

"We are taking him to the ER. His breathing is labored. We fear he might go in to respiratory arrest. His heart rate is slow. Unfortunately we don't have the necessary medical supplies here since this is Dermatology. We need to intubate, hook him to an EKG and find out what he's been given."

"We'll meet you in the ER." Steve said as he hauled the guy to his feet. The guy was still whimpering about his nose. Steve dragged the guy into the elevator and for a moment Danny was worried that his partner would inflict more physical damage on the guy. "You better pray that he survives. 'Cause if he doesn't neither will you." Steve spat out. He took out his cell phone and called Chin. "Yeah Chin, Danny and I are in the hospital. Zack made a move on Joey." The elevator bell rang indicating that they reached the ground floor. Danny took they guy by his cuffs and walked to the ER, Steve was walking behind him talking to Chin on the phone.

"Where's Joey, is he okay?"

"We don't know yet. He drugged him. We are still waiting for the doctor to give us an update. "

"Damn, do you have Zack?"

"No, he sent one his goons. HPD is going to drop the guy off."

"Alright, we'll make him feel right at home."

"We've also got a license plate."Steve motioned for Danny to give him the plate number. "It's 5 Tango Bravo Delta 861."

"5 Tango Bravo Delta 861, I'll get right on it. Keep me updated on Joey's status."

"Yeah bye."

Chin hung up the phone and immediately checked out the license plate number. It turned out that the van was stolen. He sighed. He continued on what he was doing before Steve called. Going through the list of known associates of Zack Kealani and this was no easy task. Beside the connection to Kuroda, there was nothing else. That was going to be difficult trying to figure out if Yosuke was providing Zack with a place to lay low. Chin had already pulled up all of Kuroda's real estate records. He was able to cross off five places. Kono walked into his office. "Hey Kono, Steve just called. Joey was attacked Joey in the hospital."

"Woah, what? How's he doing?" Kono asked her cousin.

"They don't know yet. They drugged him. They arrested a guy. HPD is bringing him here. Steve also gave me a plate number. The van was reported stolen. So we still got nothing. Maybe when our new friend arrives we'll finally get a few things out of him that will help speed things up."
