Chapter 10
Danny tries to open his eyes but can't, he's having a hard time swallowing. He tries to listen for some sounds to help him place where he is, but it is eerily quiet. He can't move much, no room. His arms are tied behind him
"Where am I? It seems closed in, maybe a box. Why can't I hear anything?" Danny tries to stretch his legs but can't. "Try turning over on your back. That's better, my legs aren't tied but I can't straighten them out. The air is fresh, not stale, so I'm in an open area. Wait, I hear something……..birds, yes, definitely birds. Come on, relax Danny, listen and use your senses. All right you hear the birds, that sounds like water in the distance, plumeria flowers, yeah that's their sweet scent. All right that means your outside. Trying rocking, that's it."
Suddenly Danny feels his confinement move with a thud and a rough ride starts. Going down hill in the box he's in begins to break apart and Danny is free but tumbling down a steep hill. His hands still behind he can't get hold of any branch, his body hits a protruding rock, knocking his breath away. He dare not move, his body and head hurts, thinking, "Well, at least I'm out."
"Willie, speak up now, or forget any deals." Kono says very softly.
Willie looks at Kono and knows if he doesn't talk now it's over for him. "Okay, first off that lady in there ain't no sweet thing, bro. She's tough and she told Mike and Don what to do and they told me. I don't know what her scam is, I really don't. It had something to do with Five-0 and her husband. As for where they took Danny, my guess is at her house, a small shack really, in the hills, she has a big piece of land on Waimae Bay side. I can take you there."
"Kono and Ben will take you, but Willie they better come back with Danny. Do I make myself clear?"
"Mike and Don won't kill him, they ain't no murderes."
