*****************************************linebreak ************************************
Danny tried not to flinch and as the knife traced its way down his face.
"I meant it when I said I was losing patience Detective." His captor said.
"And I meant it when I said I didn't know where Matt was. Look man, I don't know how many times I can say the same thing. I. Do. Not. Know. Where. He. Is." Danny wheezed out.
He didn't think he'd make it much longer anyway. The incessant shivering left his teeth chattering which sent waves of pain through his still throbbing skull. He wondered if he had developed hypothermia yet. Could you even get hypothermia in Hawaii? Steve would know. Whether it was the cold or the rib just waiting to puncture his lung, if superSEAL didn't show up soon...
"He's your brother. Of course you know. You always take care of your little brother. Always." He said. He was tapping his foot and flexing his fingers like he was nervous. Or he was losing control. Danny would really rather be somewhere else when this time bomb of a guy exploded.
"In case you hadn't noticed, we're not exactly as close as we used to. I speak to him for the first time in two years and look at where it got me." Danny muttered, and then blanched when he realized what he'd just admitted to. He knew he wasn't thinking clearly but he couldn't believe what he had just let slip. He prayed the man was too messed up to notice. Of course he would never be that lucky.
"You spoke to him?! You talked to him! YOU LIAR!" He screamed at Danny.
"I didn't mean... On the phone! I don't know where..." Danny started, trying to cover up what was probably a deadly mistake.
The knife flashed through the air and before he knew what was happening, Danny felt it imbedded in his leg.
He tried to scream but it just led to a coughing fit that left Danny gasping for air and fighting to stay conscious. He couldn't breathe. He tried to calm himself down and take smaller breaths.
The man pulled the knife out and grabbed Danny's hand.
"What are you doing?" Danny choked out. "What are you doing?!"
"It didn't have to come to this Detective." He replied, putting the knife to the pinky finger of Danny's left hand.
"WAIT!" Danny shouted as he started to press down. "Wait! Stop! I have an idea! Don't! DON'T!"
*******************************************linebre ak**********************************
Steve shoved Matt into the metal chair of the five-0 interrogation room. Interrogating his best friends brother was not something he wanted to do. But he'd do anything to get Danny back as the it was nearing the third day since his abduction. Steve wasn't sure how much time Dany had left. And frankly that terrified him.
"What the hell were you doing in that house?" Steve asked forcefully.
Matt just looked up at him.
"Listen to me Matthew. They have your brother. They have Danny. They've had him for nearly three days now. And do you know why? Because of you. They're hurting him because of you. I don't care if you're his brother Matt, if you don't give me something, and Danny dies, I will kill you. Do you understand me?" Steve said so menacingly, he could see his prisoner pale with every word.
Matt just nodded.
"I was doing the same thing you were." He replied. "I was looking for Danny."
"How did you know where to find him?" Steve asked.
Matt shifted uncomfortably in the chair. "You spend enough time on the other side, and you start meeting people. I found out about the meeting between the big shrimp guy and his source through a source of my own... I sat at the end of the bar and waited for the location. I'd been hoping to find Danny and get out before you guys showed up, but you can see how well what went."
"Who's this source?" Steve asked.
"A true criminal never reveals his sources Commander." Matt replied. "If he did, he wouldn't have any more."
Steve made a disgusted sound at the back of his throat. He couldn't believe the man in front of him was his partners brother. He must be adopted.
"Do you know what happened to the two guys who lived in that apartment?" Steve asked.
"They're dead." Kono answered, walking into the room. "HPD just pulled their bodies out of the canal near Puholo."
Steve turned sharply to look at Matt.
He shrugged. "Don't look at me man, I didn't do it."
"So I'm thinking Sean Harris offers to pay these guys to take Danny, and then kills them once they deliver Danny to him. Kidnapping a cop is a big deal. Keeping one hostage and assaulting him is huge. This guy doesn't want any witnesses." Steve said.
"Steve." Kono said nervously. "That means when he finds out Danny doesn't actually know where Matt is..."
"Hey," Steve replied, putting a hand on her shoulder , "it's not going to come to that."
Kono nodded at Steve before turning to glare at Matt.
He couldn't take his eyes off the floor.
"You need to find him. I remember Harris. I remember..." Matt whispered. "This is my fault."
Steve was about to say something when his cell phone started ringing.
"Yeah Chin?" He answered. "What?! I'll be right up!"
"What? What is it? Is it Danny?" Matt asked.
But Steve ignored him, running out of interrogation with Kono hot on his heels.
***********************************linebreak****** **********************************
Chin was still going through Sean Harris' life when he heard a phone ring. It was an office phone. He looked around and realized that it was coming from Danny's office. Who would be calling Danny? He had a bad feeling about this all of the sudden.
"Hello?" He answered suspiciously.
"Steve McGarret." A voice Chin didn't recognize replied.
"No, this is Lieutenant Chin Ho Kelly. Five-O. Who is this and how did you got Detective Williams' phone number?" He demanded.
"I want to talk to Commander McGarret." The man answered.
"Why don't you tell me who this is, and then-"
"Give the phone to McGarret or I cut off one of his beloved partners fingers." The voice cut in threateningly.
Chin gasped.
"I'll go get him just give me a minute. Don't hurt Danny!"
Chin dialed Steve's number.
"Steve!" He said urgently when the man answered. "The kidnappers on the phone and he wants to talk to you! Now! Hurry!"
Chin could hear Steve's hurried footsteps as he left interrogation.
Not even fifteen seconds later, Steve was bursting through Headquarters and ran straight to Danny's office.
He grabbed the phone before Chin had a chance to hand it to him.
"This is Lieutenant Commander Steve McGarret. Who am I speaking with?" He said in his most authoritative tone.
"This is the man who has your partner. If you want him back, I'm going to need something from you first."
"Where is my partner you son of a bitch? I want to talk to Danny. Now." Steve demanded.
"That's not how this works! And you may not want to talk to me like that while I've got a knife to your partners throat." The man Steve assumed was Sean replied.
Steve bit back his rage and took a calming breath. He couldn't risk this guy hurting Danny.
"You want me to help you, I want proof of life. I talk to Danny first." Steve said, refusing to back down.
"Fine." The man muttered. Steve heard the shuffling of the phone being passed.
"Steve?"
Steve never felt such relief at hearing his partners voice. But the relief was mixed with terror when he noticed just how weak and wheezy his voice was. Sean Harris was a dead man.
"Danny! Hey Danno, how you doing buddy?" Steve asked, trying to hide the panic in his voice from Danny.
"I've had better days..." Danny replied.
"I'm going to find you Danny. You know that right?" Steve asked.
"Yeah. I trust you Steve. And I'm so sorry." Danny said sadly.
Steve bit his fist to keep from hitting something.
"It's alright it's gonna be fine. Just hold on okay? Hold on Danny promise me that." Steve begged.
"I-" Danny started to say. But he was cut off.
"Danny?" Steve shouted. "Danny?!"
Sean's voice came back on the phone.
"I want Matthew Williams." Sean said.
"Wait! Give the phone back to Danny! I wasn't finished!" Steve said. Danny hadn't promised. He needed him to promise.
"I'll call back in two hours. If you find Matt and give him to me, I'll give you Danny. If not..."
"Steve!" Danny shouted.
Steve heard the horrifying sound of flesh hitting flesh and Danny's cry of pain.
"Danny! Don't you touch him! I'll kill you!" Steve shouted.
"I promise Steve! I promise!"
That was the last thing Steve heard before the line went dead.
*********************************************lineb reak********************************
I originally intended for this chapter to be longer but I feel like that's a good place to end it. And since I didn't put any Danny in the last chapter I thought I'd put a nice amount of this in this one.
I'm trying not to drag this on to the point where it gets boring I just can't stop writing it! Please let me know if you're getting bored or if I'm going to slow. I'm doing my best to keep things interesting and intense!
Hope you enjoyed! Let me know what you think!
Thanks :)
