Hi everyone! I started this story about 2 years ago, and never got it finished! Life literally got in the way, but I finally have time to finish it off. I have looked at some of the comments and edited a few sections slightly. I am doing this for each chapter, then I will produce the final 2. Please bear with me though; I've forgotten how to use this site - ha!

Errors are my own, and feedback is welcome!

I own nothing. As much as i would like to own them all. I'm just going to borrow them, put them in my story, maybe bash them about a bit... I am no medical expert, and no weapon expert and I have made things up to suit the purpose of this story throughout - so please don't be disappointed with inaccuracies :)
As I have mentioned previously, I don't know the islands of Hawaii; the layout or where things might happen. :) I just want to try and create a story.

Reviews welcome. I am not sure if this will work... we'll see how we get on :)
Italics without quotes indicate a thought... (just so you know)!

"What do you mean she got away?" Walker exploded at Danny pushing him in the chest. Danny stumbled slightly and couldn't hide the wince of pain that escaped his throat. "How could you let her?"

Steve moved in between the pair and pushed his hands on Walker moving him away from his partner, his own anger exploding. "Walker stop it!" he pushed him against the wall, "Where's Martins?"

"What?" Walker looked at Steve in confusion. "What does it matter where Martins is after what your boy has done?" He wagged a finger at Danny and tried to push himself forward again, but Steve's grip held him.

"Answer the question!" he demanded.

"He's in the conference room. What is going on?"

Steve turned and looked at Kon and Chin who were close by. Nodding at the two, they walked around the corner and disappeared towards the room.

"You and I need to have a chat." Steve said anger still present in his voice. He loosened his grip cautiously from the mainlander. "Come with me, we're going somewhere private."

Danny followed close behind, passing by a group of HPD officers who had been watching from a distance, curious at the exchange between the three senior detectives.

They passed by the conference room, glancing in to see Martins being cuffed. Walker paused and turned to head into the room, "What the hell..?"

"Keep going!" Steve urged. He saw Walker and Martins lock eyes, confusion showing on Walkers face. Steve looked back at Martins who turned and locked eyes with him. A look crossed his face that Steve couldn't quite decipher. He lowered his head and allowed himself to be ushered out of the room, cousins either side.

Steve Danny and Walker moved to a smaller room next to conference room. There was a small square table in the centre, with chairs scattered either side.

"What is this?" Walker asked as he was pushed into the room, "An interrogation?"

"Sit down." Steve stated flatly pointing at a chair.

Walker looked between the two men, confusion on his features and moved to sit at the table. Danny sat opposite him, while Steve remained standing pacing the room.

"How well do you know Martins?"

"What?"

"Just answer the question Walker." Danny spoke up, "How. well. do. you. know. Martins?" He exaggerated each word.

Walker was still looking between the two men, not sure what was going on, "I picked him up in Los Angeles. He was working a homicide - the murder of a young girl who was associated with the Alioni." Steve and Danny kept their faces strict. Danny motioned with his hands for Walker to continue, "He had to do a lot of research on the group to find motives, members and location. He was at an advantage for what I needed. That's the short story." He looked again between the two men, "What's going on?"

Steve recognised that Walker looked genuinely confused and answered his question, "Martins has been identified as having links to the Alioni. He has been seen at meetings with a couple of key players."

Walker was running this information through his head, "What? how do you..." Again he was looking between the two men, searching for answers on their faces.

Danny ignored the latter question, and instead asked one of his own. "What about Clarke?"

"Clarke?" Again confusion was on Walkers face. He paused for a moment thinking through the men involved in the case before he asked, "Clarke? From HPD SWAT?" He received a nod of confirmation. "Enough to know that he was recommended by his boss as someone we want on the case. An exemplary service record, perfect execution of stake outs, and a history of very few casualties. Will you please tell me what is happening?"

Steve and Danny locked eyes, and Danny nodded towards Steve. TIt was an unspoken request that Danny look into Clarke's boss and the recommendations.
It seemed that Walker had little involvement other than work with the two men. Steve decided to try a new approach. "What about you, Walker? What about your past?"

"Am I being accused of something here?"

"No." Steves voice was calm but his tone made it clear he was not messing about, "we are just trying to establish relationships. It seems our leak on the force isn't one person. Clarke and Martins are two of the leaks. We need to establish if there is another and how big this is."

"What?" Walker exploded pushing his chair back and getting to his feet. Danny followed suit, and Steve stance changed to the defensive in case of a confrontation with this man. "You think I am a leak? What..."

Walker's reaction was explosive and Steve wanted to tame. "Sit down Walker. We have to ask. We have looked into you history, your roots and your record. What we pulled up doesn't indicate anything... you're clean." At least on paper Steve thought.

"You are just a very bad judge in character, it would seem" Danny mutter receiving a steely look from Walker.

Steve again motioned for Walker to sit. Grabbing a chair and turning it around so he could straddle and lean against the back, Steve leaned in to Walker. "We have a few things we need to tell you." He wasn't sure where to start, and how much information he should give away. 'll give him the blanket version, "We have access to the group. Not through Davies, but through another UC."

"You've got another undercover in there?"

"Sort of." At this statement, Walkers confused look returned. Steve stuck to his decision of not giving too much away. "We've been able to meet with a member of the group. They have provided information that will help us. When I called you earlier, with the information about the shipment... it was from our informant."

"The girl?" Walker asked.

Danny shook his head. They expected Walker to ask this question, and despite needing to trust him, they had agreed to keep her cover from anyone; can never take too many chances, "No. That was my mistake. She knew I was injured, and used it to her advantage to get away."

Walker looked sceptical, but nodded. He didn't believe that for a second, but respected 5-0s need to keep their informants identity secret.

Steve glanced at his watch. "We are due to begin this meeting in 2 minutes. We have done background checks on everyone in that room, and ran the photos by our informant. This is how we identified Martins and Clarke as being out leaks. Do you know where Clarke is?" Steve left out the part about him supposedly being killed 5 years ago.

"No, I just made the calls necessary to invite those to the meetings after we spoke this afternoon. He should show up. Unless he has reason to believe he shouldn't be here?" He paused, the last statement turned into a question. "Has Martins had the chance to call him?"

"We don't know. I am inclined to say no, as Martins didn't know we suspected him until 5 minutes ago."

Walker nodded in agreement and hardened his resolve, "Then we should expect him to show up, and we will give the same treatment to him as Martins. Take him in, question him..."

Steve moved towards the door, "I have asked Leki to bring two more members of SWAT to the meeting. Not given any indication about why, but we need men on this. It is going to be big."

Another nod from Walker, who pushed himself up again from the table to follow Steve out. "Let's get this show on the road."

H50**H50** H50**H50** H50**H50** H50**H50**

The trio stepped around the corner and walked into the conference room, Steve doing a quick head count. Everyone was there, except one person, "Where's Clarke?" He asked, his voice filled with urgency. He peered at a pair of officers by the coffee machine only being able to see the backs of their heads. When they turned around at his voice he saw that neither was Clarke. He wasn't there.

They were met with a few shrugs, before Kono came into the room, closely followed by Chin; both breathing heavily.

"You ok?" Danny asked recognising the flush in their cheeks.

Kono shook and lowered her head, her hair falling around her face. Placing her hands on her hips she composed herself drawing in a deep breath before looking at her boss, "He saw us and theHPD officers walking Martins out of the building. He was across the street. He ran."

"We chased as far and as fast as we could, but we lost him." Chin too was still drawing in breaths trying to calm his breathing, "He had a good 50 metres on us, and he is fast. He knows that we know Martins is in on it."

"Damn." Steve muttered quietly, he looked to the floor hand to face stroking his chin, something that had become habit within the last few days. Looking back at Kono recognising her guilt, he put his hand on her shoulder. "It's not your fault Kono. Don't beat yourself up about this. "

He turned back to the room, and was met with a wave of confused faces. Leki was looking at the group at the front of the room, a questioning look all over his face. Up until yesterday this was the man he was going to be working with on SWAT co-ordination.

Steve looked at him and gave him a small look that wordlessly told Leki he would explain everything in a minute. Leki found himself looking at the rest of the room to see if anyone else knew what might be going on. He realised he wasn't the only one confused by recent events.

At the sound of Steve clearing his throat everyone moved to the table, and sat patiently. The brown information files that had been handed out the previous day where present along with extra paper for notes. Each individual picked up their pens and stared at Walker and Steve at the front of the room. Steve walked slowly around the room looking at each individual as he circled the table. He thought it was best to begin with an brief explanation about the situation. He glanced at his watch.

"First of all, sorry for the late start. You all know that we have had concerns of leaks within the department with the Alioni. Today we identified two of those leaks, and I am afraid to say that they are the two people missing from this room." A murmur was passed between the group, each showing shock at the revelation.

"Jesus, I have worked with Martins for years." William James, a short dark haired LAPD officer spoke up from the end of the table, "I can't believe it!"

"It's a shock for all of us!" Walker said leaning on the wall at the front of the room, "But we have to move on from that and concentrate on our task in hand. We have information that will help us bring the Alioni down. If we catch the Hawaiian associates, we are in a position to find information about Los Angeles, San Francisco and New York."

Satisfied smiles fell on the faces of those sat in the room, and Steve recognised that as determination to get the job done and finally catch these criminals.

Nodding at Chin, who moved to the side and picked up a role of paper, he spoke again, "We know that there is going to be a shipment coming into the Kewalo bay tomorrow around midday. We are going to be there, and stop it."

Chin dropped the paper in the middle of the table as Steve leaned over and helped him unroll to long scroll. Chin and Steve grabbed four paper weights that were located in the middle of the table to hold the paper down as the rest of the group stood to see what they were looking at. They were all looking with Blue Prints of the dockland area they would be working.

Dark lines indicated the landfall, that was connected to the Basin where the water flowed into the harbour and out the sea. Lines met more lines as the dockland was exaggerated. Buildings were marked along the basin and companies that operated out of the docks. To the left of the charter companies lay a storage area which housed shipping containers. Some owned by the state of Hawaii, others belonging to personal and business customers. Steve was willing to place a bet that one or more of the containers belonged to the Alioni. Opposite the dockland was the Sea Life museum.

"There are several docks on the basin where Charter companies operate tours of the island, and dolphin sighting trips, so on." Walker pointed to the main bay area where lines indicated businesses. There were several lines with names attached. Among them where 'Happy Sailing' and 'Sealife Viewer'; all names that indicated a sunshine image of a tourist company. Walker continued, "We know that we are expecting a docking at around 12 pm, and research shows us that 'Sealife Viewer' take a three hour break between 11am and 2pm. We are going to send someone down to the docks tomorrow to scout, but we are expecting to find that 'Happy Sailing' who do not stop their tours, will also be breaking around then. They are our target."

The people in the room scribble down information, so that they had the name of the company and the break times. This was all in preparation for the main raid.

Leki needed this information specifically, as he needed to know that he was operating safely on the ground. A tourist area was always a difficult location to work. You could never keep a tourist away from an attraction, whether it is something the island has to offer, or the local PD. This thought bought a question to mind, "How will we keep tourists away from the area during these hours? Placing patrol cars to early will raise alarms with the Alioni, but preventing the regular flow of tourists, especially with the museum in the same location? That will be difficult."

It was Danny that answered, "We are going to go back and use some good old fashioned tactics. Our scout will pull the fire alarm in the one of the shops on the Basin at about 10:30am. Procedure is that all tourists must clear the area. Store owners ensure that the area is cleared before evacuating themselves. My bet is the Alioni group on land will co-operate and evacuate after checking their working area. It is not the people on the ground that we have to worry about, but the members coming in by boat."

Leki nodded, expecting that this plan would be expanded on later.

Steve continued, "But we do not think the whole gang will be in the shop on the harbour. We expect them to be hiding out in other areas." he pointed to the shipping yard, "At least one of these containers will belong to them. HPD are in contact with the shipping authorities to give us a list and location of containers belonging to Happy Sailing. With this information, we can close in nearer to the drop time."

"We have to time this perfectly." Walker continued, "We are expecting 5 key players from the key states to be arriving by boat and docking at the harbour. These will be the ones that we need to bring in to begin bringing down the group. Their feet have to be on dry land; otherwise we are giving them ample opportunity to get away. They cannot be given that chance."

Steve passed across the information that Elliot that provided, and everything that they had picked up from HPD background checks. Questions were asked about the group and the key members. Although they could not be identified at this stage, there would be eyes on the dock to make sure that everyone knew the identity of the 5 key players when the time came.

"There will be 4 teams, each of 4 people. Alongside this we will have HPD back up and extra SWAT support on the outskirts of the dock." Steve glanced as people sat back in their seats, ready again to make notes. "I'll take team 1 with Chin, Kono and Ashcroft."

Ashcroft was a tall fair haired officer. Steve had read that his negation skills were second to none, and his dedication to the HPD was strong. He wanted nothing more than to protect the people of the island and keep them out of danger. This profile reminded him a lot of Danny. He eyes turned to his partner, "Danny, you'll be with Walker. He'll be team lead and will also take James and Oshau," he glanced at the two youngest officers in the room and pointed at them." You'll make up team 2."

Several "yes sirs" were heard in the room. He turned his attention to the SWAT leader. "Leki, you will split key members of SWAT into team 3 and 4. That decision is with you, but I want their names on my desk by 7:30am. We need to be ready to roll by 9 and I want to know who I am working with. You will be leading both teams."

Leki nodded, "What's our positioning?"

Steve pointed at the blue prints and tapped two locations. "The first will be here on the shipping yard, I want you to cover any escape from this direction. If they run, they are likely to move this way. You're second position is here," his finger moved to a jetty just across from the Happy Sailing Harbour. "This is about 30 metre across sea to the harbour we will be raiding. This is to cover any escape by boats. Your job here will be to stop that get away, by whatever mean necessary."

Walker picked up, "Team 1 will be located here." He gestured to an area to the right where the tourist section of the harbour met with the shipping containers. He quickly moved his finger to the left which was the opposite side of the bay; also where shipping containers were around but with access to the harbour. "This is where my team will be. This is where we expect a run to happen. If anyone gets past us, Team 3 will be there to pick it up."

Steve looked at the group to see if there were any immediate questions. Not receiving any he clasped his hands, "You've seen most of the suspects in the file. You know who you are looking for. We will stop the gang by any means necessary, but remember that we are shooting to disarm. Unless you see a fellow officer in distress or you have to make that split decision, I want that to be your priority. I trust each of you with that responsibility. We will supply plastic cuffs tomorrow morning on site. Each of you brings your service weapons and your vests. If we do this, we are going to do it properly and safely."

A small cheer erupted in the room at Steve final speech. He nodded at them and indicated that they were dismissed and watched as they left the room.

Danny moved to his side, "Very motivational Steven. Very motivational. You think we got this?"

Kono and Chin moved closer to their boss, but his attention was on Walker leaving the room. He still felt the tension from the early meeting. After he had slipped through the door, he turned his attention back to his team. "Yeah, I do." he paused. "Chin, will you get a tail sorted for me?" his finger indicated the door.

Chin looked at his boss and whispered, "Walker? I mean yes, but everything ok?"

Steve shrugged, "I'm sure it is. But with Martins having been bought down, and Clarke still out there, they could make a move towards him."

"So you want us to tail the whole group? They are all as involved in this as him." Danny's question lifted at the end, his Jersey accent coming out.

"Just him! Being lead on this case exposes him. He knows the details." he paused again and looked at Danny hoping that he wouldn't ask any more questions. Steve was not only protecting Walker, but following up and a feeling he couldn't shake. When Danny didn't question him he spoke up again. "Listen, we need to get some sleep. Tomorrow is a big day; we need to be on top of our game. Meet at the Palace at 7am."

The team nodded and headed towards the door. Chin turned to his boss his head nodding towards the door, "I'll be in touch if there is anything you need to be concerned about."

"Good."

He watched his team leave. After a year and a half of trying they were on the cusp of bringing down the Alioni. If he really thought about it, things had changed very quickly, and while at the start of the week he felt he was losing control, he now felt that he had the majority of it. His team would do the best that they could to make tomorrow successful.

Their timing just had to be perfect.
