Chapter 10 the beginning to present.

Steve's POV

Steve went camping by himself and he told Danny where he was going. He was at the Ko'olau Mountains where he and Danny went, they had to cut the trip short because he broke his arm and they found a dead body in the process. He stopped when he got to point where Danny and he stopped when they both found the body. He knew that he missed his parents and he also knew that he wasn't going to stop before he had found out who Shelburne was. He remembers going away to Japan to get Wo Fat but suddenly escaped and now he had to find him again. He hiked for a few hours and then headed back to his house.

He made it to his house without any trouble. He went in and took a shower. It felt good to get all the sweat and dirt off of him. He turned off the shower and thought he heard something inside his own house. He quickly got dressed and grabbed his gun from behind his pillow and went quietly downstairs, noticing that everything is a mess inside his house. He hears something behind him but before he turns around he feels something hit him in the back of the neck and head and he falls to the ground and he remembers nothing more.

After he says that he remembers the two people at his bedside.

He doesn't even remember his own name let alone those two people. But he feels like he should. The two people looked devastated that he doesn't even remember them. He even tries to remember their names but every time he thinks he is even close he gets a huge migraine of a headache. The nurse told him before she left to press the button for the pain medication.

The doctor came into the room and sat down in the chair beside the bed he was lying in.

"Okay I need to know if you even remember anything."

He thinks and realizes that he does remember some things but they are just faces. He nods yes to the doctor.

"Okay, will you tell me some of them? I won't force you to tell me."

For some reason he doesn't want to tell him. But he doesn't know why. So he shakes his head no. The doctor got up and left. He felt relived after the doctor left, but he didn't know why. He felt trapped when he was alone with him. He thought that he was just tired and looks for the button and finds it and he presses it and starts to feel better and is more relaxed. He starts to drift off to sleep.

The next thing he remembers is pain and it's all over. He tries to wake up but it hurts to even try. He hears voices and they seem familiar to him but he doesn't know why. He tries to open his eyes but can't because it feels like his eyelids are made of lead. He wakes up and notices that the breathing tube is back in and he wants it out. The Asian guy got the doctor and the doctor got it out. He put in a nasal cannula on his nose and after a few minutes he could breathe better. He wants to remember but somehow it feels like there is a big and thick curtain for his memory and he just can't remember anything. He writes something and then suddenly it feels like the world is getting tipsy and his stomach wants to rebel. The doctor and nurse give him some pain medication and some sedatives for him to relax and he is now asleep because he is exhausted and just gives into it.

He realizes that he is more comfortable and can open his eyes a bit more easily. It feels like someone is in this room with him but he doesn't know how he knew that. He opens his eyes for the first time and is amazed that he was right. His throat still feels scratchy and sore from the breathing tube. He wants to speak but his voice comes out raspy. The guys' name is Callen and he seems pretty nice. They talk for a while and he realizes that he likes this guy. The guy reminds him of another guy that he used to know. Callen steps out for a few minutes and Steve just relaxes because he knows that he will come back. Callen comes back and sits back down to answer the question. He tries to swallow but can't because his throat is too dry. Callen gives him some water. When he is done he notices some pictures. There was a black guy who was pretty buff, an Asian guy and an Asian girl that looked like they could be related, a guy with blond hair and a tie with a girl with brown hair done in braids, a girl with blonde hair that was in front of a house with a beach in the background. He kept going to the blond haired guy with the tie. He had a feeling that he should know him and suddenly had a burst of a memory of the guy punching him. He told Callen that he would like to see him first. He left to go find that person.

He felt relieved that Callen was at least listening to him, when suddenly he felt a huge pain in his back and his head was hurting like crazy. The monitors went off and he saw the doctors come in and they all checked him out. His doctor came in and gave him some sedatives, a muscle relaxant and some pain medication. After a while he felt the medication worked and he fell into a deep sleep.

He felt like he was floating on a cloud. He also felt a bit numb. When he started coming to consciousness he was aware of the monitors and some beeping sounds. He started to freak out when he felt something on his hand. That's when he realized that he was back on the breathing tube, yet again. He opened his eyes and saw the blond haired guy. The doctor was with him. He still didn't trust that guy. The doctor took out the tube and told him to say the first name that came to his mind when he looked at the blond haired guy.

He Said, "Danno."

Danno looked at the doctor and then looked at him and said, "How many times have I said not to say that?"

"I think it's catchy." He started to have a headache. That's when he knew that something is important. When he started to have a headache which is when the memories wanted to come forth. He tried to hide it. He heard him snort. "What you don't think so?"

"No, I don't, would you stop with the aneurysm face."

Aneurysm face? He thought he remembered Danno saying that before, but he couldn't say anything because he was experiencing a massive headache. He also couldn't breathe. He felt something on his face and heard the doctor saying to take deep breaths. After a couple of breaths he started to feel better and really tired, so he just fell asleep.

The next time he wakes he notices that the doctor is with him. He asks basic questions and he feels really dumb when he can't even remember what his name is what state he is in or what the month is. He felt really dumb. He sighs and tries to get to his bearings. Within a few minutes, he was ready to see the first person. The person that came in was the blond haired guy from the photo. He felt that he talked to him before. He said that he would be asking some questions and he agreed to the terms. He learned a lot from the guy but not enough. He felt like they were friends but not in the traditional sense. He couldn't place how he knew him. He was really frustrated because he couldn't get his brain to cooperate with him. When Danny was done questioning him he let his daughter come in. He felt peace when he was with her. Like some sort of calm that was placed over him and he relaxed really quickly.

After about a long nap he felt refreshed. But before he opened his eyes, he knew someone was in the same room with him. He looked at him and noticed that he recognized him from the pictures. He couldn't remember the name though. He asked him and the guy said his name and he nodded so they could get to the questioning. He was getting frustrated about not knowing anything. He liked this guy and he felt like he could trust this guy. Then he got some disturbing images about him and he didn't know what to think. One of them was when Chin was arresting him and another one was when Chin was strapped to a neck bomb.

After a couple of minutes Chin was teaching him some Hawaiian words and he got them all messed up. Chin said that it will take some time to get used to the language. He then said Mele Kalikimaka and Steve went overboard at that mention of the name. He started to have memories upon memories that kept coming and wouldn't stop. Bomb…fight…boat…Christmas tree…Grace…Chin in danger…Murderer…His dad…Danny…task force…Kono…shots fired…Being tased...Santa Clause…burned money…With all those memories and more going through his head, he couldn't relax even though Chin tried to calm him down. The doctor told him to get out of the room and he knew no more.

He woke up some hours later and didn't remember a thing about what happened. He remembered his friends coming to see him but totally forgot about the questions they asked. He sighed, knowing that he needed to be patient and let his brain heal. But something was nagging at him about himself and he couldn't place it. He started to think about his family and wondered if he even had a family. He noticed that someone was in his room and he looked toward that person and had a flash of a memory of the girl sitting in a chair looking like she was beat up. He told her that and they started to talk. He noticed that he liked to talk to these people that kept coming to him. They went to Hawaiian words and he realized that he was pretty good at it and it gave him some hope that he would recover from the memory loss. He was getting tired so Kono wished him a good night and left so he could get a peaceful night's rest.

The next day he woke up alone. No one was in the room with him. He was grateful for that because he needed some time to think about some things. He tried to think of people who would want him dead and his mind drew a blank. He sighed, frustrated, when suddenly he felt another presence in the room. He looked to his right and saw a black man standing near the doorway. He knew he knew this person but he couldn't remember where. The guy introduced himself as Sam Hanna. They started to talk and it felt good to talk with him. He, of course didn't know why it was so easy to talk to this guy but he did and he liked it. He then had a major headache and passed out afterwards. When he woke up he felt really agitated and said the first thing that came into his head. He said Mary and another person named Jenna Kaye. He didn't know how he knew those names but he couldn't help that he knew them somehow. Sam knew he had to call Danny and stood up and told Steve that he would be right back. He came back a few minutes later.

"There is someone else that you need to see before you are released," stated Sam.

He nodded and Sam left. The visitor came a few minutes later and they talked. He wanted to remember these people and what their roles were so he tried with all of his might to try to listen to them and believe what they had to say. The doctor came in and told him what he needed to hear.

Nobody's POV

"Alright, Steve, you are healing nicely and I want to release you in the care of Danny Williams. You will be staying with him at your house until your memory returns. Your injuries are almost healed and I want you to take pain medication when it gets to be too much for you. I also want to see you again in one week to see what you remember and to see how you are doing with your injuries."

Steve nodded and was relieved that he was going home finally. The doctor checked him over and gave him some sedatives so he could sleep through the night and not wake up like he has been doing. He was excited about going home and he couldn't wait but he was a bit nervous about going to. He hasn't set foot out of the hospital since he can't remember when. So yeah he was a little bit nervous. The medication started to kick in and he started to feel sleepy and within a few minutes he was asleep.

Mary went out of the hospital to find that Danny was sitting on a bench waiting for her.

"Hey, Mary, so how'd it go in there?"

"I think it went rather well, considering he lost his memory. I just want him to get better. Do you know when he will be released?"

Danny nodded. "He will be released tomorrow in my care at his house."

"Alright, well, let me know when he is going to be released so that I can see him before I go to my hotel."

"That sounds like a good idea," agreed Danny.

They both left the hospital and Danny went by to take Grace home with him so she could help with Steve. Rachel is letting him take her because Grace wants to help her Uncle Steve. He picks her up and takes her to Steve's house so they could set up for when Steve comes home.

The next day, everybody comes over to the hospital. Danny, Grace, Chin, Kono, Sam, Callen, Mary and even Kamekona. They wanted to be there to show their support to their friend who was getting out today. Dr. Harold Charter came to them and said, "I can only allow one person to be with him while he is being released."

"I'll go," said Danny.

Danny followed the doctor to Steve's room and before they went in the doctor wanted to talk.

"Okay, Danny, when he is experiencing a headache, talk to him calmly and quietly. After a major headache he will forget things, but with time he will be okay. Bring him to familiar surroundings and let him experience things for himself. Help him in any way you can and he will be back to normal before you know it. One more thing though, keep asking the same questions over and over but alternate them with different questions. Here is the pain medication and I hope that your friend will get better soon."

Danny nodded and they both went in and saw that Steve was sitting up by himself.

"Hey, Steve, ready to come home?"

Steve looked at him and smiled. "Yeah home sounds pretty good right about now."

The doctor and Danny helped Steve into a wheelchair and wheeled him out to the hallway.

"Okay Steve, I have something to say before we both go to the waiting room. There will be a crowd waiting to see you and before you say anything, they came here to see you off. And yes you know all of them." Steve was scrunching up his face like he was trying to remember something.

"What is it Steve?"

"I don't know, but I feel like I've been here before."

"Okay, um, can you remember when?"

"All I remember is that I had a broken arm."
"Okay, that is good, we can work with that. Just keep trying to remember bits and pieces and we will help with the rest."

They got to the waiting area and Steve was surprised about how many people were there. The only person he didn't recognize was the big guy. Kamekona noticed this and went to greet him.

"Hey Steve, howzit going brah," The big guy said, "My name is Kamekona."

Steve looked at him and saw that he had his hand out and they shook hands. Everybody took a breath, because they didn't know how Steve would've reacted to meeting him. They all went out of the hospital and got into their cars. Danny helped Steve into his Camaro and they set off to Steve's house. Steve was quiet on the way. Danny was worried about that. He wasn't sure if Steve was happy or not. He was happy that his friend was finally coming home. They got to the house and Danny helped Steve out and helped him inside. When Steve got inside the house he felt a headache coming on. He tried to ignore it but Danny found out anyway. He started to lead Steve somewhere dark and was prepared to give him some pain medication. Steve was holding his head when Danny came in and didn't even notice that Danny was right beside him.

Start of Memory

He was in a jungle with people from his SEAL team and they were transporting a person to the authorities. Something went wrong and that person got shot. Then he went on a plane to an Island and met with someone. They talked and she offered something to Steve. After that he sees Chin and they talk and Chin says something to him and that makes him want to go over to his father's house. He sees that things are a mess and tries to get evidence on who killed his father. He goes to his garage and sees the toolbox and hears a noise, pulls out a gun and faces another guy that has a gun out.

"Steve, can you hear me?"

They both draw their guns out and fight for who puts their gun down first. The blond haired detective says to show him his badge and they fight for who goes first. They both agree to do it at the same time. When they get to three, they both show there to badges to each other.

"Steve, are with me?"

They start talking and then arguing about the box and Steve calls the governor and says that he will take the job that she offered and he got sworn in. That's when he said that it was his crime scene.

"Steve, can you hear me? Are you with me?"

It took him a while to get back at Danny. He heard his voice over the memory and tried to find his way back and suddenly he was with Danny in two chairs that were outside. Wait weren't we just inside? He thought. Danny noticed his confusion and answered the question before he said anything.

"I noticed that you were having a headache and I led you to the garage, but you wouldn't go in there, so I put you outside here. You absolutely went to these chairs before I could lead you here. I've been trying to get your attention ever since. Oh and just so you know you were out of it for about five minutes. So, are you going to tell me about the memory you just had or not?"
"I think it's when we first met. I was in the garage and you came in there and we started to fight and that is when we became partners, right?

Danny chuckles. "Not exactly, you see we didn't like each other at first, but when we got to hang out with each other, then we became more than partners we became brothers."

"That's cool."

"Yeah, I guess it is."

"Can we get back inside; my head is starting to hurt really badly. I think I need to take the pain medication and take a rest before I do anything else."

Danny helped him out of the Lanai chair and helped him into the house and then into his room. Steve got settled while Danny prepared his medicine and gave it to him when he was ready.

"When you get up and you feel up to it Chin, Kono, and I want to take you on a tour of this island."

Steve nodded his agreement and promptly fell asleep.

He saw the McGarrett house was finally filled. He was waiting for some opportunity to snatch the Navy SEAL again. He just had to be patient with everything going on. He got the text from the hospital saying that Steve was on his way home. He got on the phone and called his friends to tell them to get ready to snatch McGarrett when his friends least expect it.
