The chopper lowered Steve and Chin then landed back on the road. There was room for both patients, as well as Chin for the ride to the hospital, they thought it was best that there was someone on board that was familiar to both men. Kono would drive back, she had already contacted HPD to check if there had been any prior reports of an accident at the location they were at. Until they could speak with Danny it was really unknown why he had ended up on the cliffs ledge…they would have to wait til both were coherent, Danny hopefully could fill in the blanks, where Steve couldn't, and they still weren't sure where McGarretts truck was.

The ride to the hospital was somewhat challenging, Steve was in and out of consciousness, while conscious he seemed to think he was back on some mission, Chin figured it was the sound of the helicopter that was triggering it. He fought his restraints til Chin was able to get through to him calming him so he would relax. Then the moments of clarity would bring out his worry for Danny and he'd fight to see him, Chin would continue his litany of quiet words calming him again. Danny on the other hand, had his blood pressure going up and down. His fever was spiking keeping him completely oblivious for the entire ride. Chin was thankful he was out, dealing with McGarrett was enough in their less than roomy accommodation.

The chopper landed at the hospital, both Danny and Steve were taken into emergency rooms…Danny was assessed fairly quickly and was immediately taken to the OR. Steve had been somewhat combative, they had Chin come in to help calm him so they could access his injuries without sedating him. It took Chin some time to get through to him, finally quiet words and the mention of Danny broke through all his confusion. Chin stayed with him, anchoring him til he was taken to the OR.

Chin settled back out in the waiting room, he checked the time, Kono should be arriving soon. He made two quick calls, one to update the Governor and one to Dannys ex. He then stretched his legs and leaned back, he would be in for a long wait.

Kono arrived about 30 minutes later. She walked through the emergency room doors and met up with her cousin. There was no news on either Steve or Danny. Kono had gotten no info back from HPD in regards to an accident at the scene, although it appeared that something had gone down the bank they had no way of finding out til they could speak with their teammates.

Two hours later, the doctor that had dealt with Steve originally, walked through the waiting room doors and approached Chin and Kono. Steve was in recovery, the surgery had gone well, but he would need lots of rest. He was still concerned over his head injury and his loss of memory and would address that more when he was lucid. As soon as he was awake they would get him settled into a room and both the cousins could stay with him. There had been no word on Danny other than he was still in surgery.

Close to an hour later Chin and Kono were directed to Steves room, apparently they had problems getting him to wake up from the anaesthesia. The doctor assured them it wasn't unusual considering his head injury. He needed him to rest, he had a slight fever and although he was medicated he did not want to have him heavily drugged because of the head injury. Kono and Chin both slipped into his room, taking up sentry positions on each side of his bed waiting for him to wake and any word on Danny.

Word had gotten to them that Danny was in recovery and would be moved to ICU, although the surgery went well he had an infection that they were treating with a wide spectrum antibiotic. The first 24 hours were critical to see that he responded to them, he was heavily sedated so that his body could rest and heal. The doctor said as soon as they were sure the antibiotics were working they would slowly wean him off the sedatives and let him wake up. Both Chin and Kono could visit with him but the doctor preferred one visitor at a time.

Steve started to wake, subtle movements at first, then he moved and a grunt of pain left his lips. Chin was up first, hand on his shoulder telling him to relax, that he was in the hospital and he was going to be ok. Kono hovered on his other side squeezing his hand. Tired drug glazed eyes opened trying to focus on the familiar voices he swallowed thickly trying to speak…

"Hey brah just relax you're going to be fine"

Kono reached for some ice chips "Yeah Boss you really over did it" as she spooned a few chips into Steves mouth, the wetness helping to sooth his dry throat.

One word is all he needed to get out "Danny?"

Chin looked to Kono they knew Steve would need the truth,even in his condition he would pick up on any fallacious story, especially when it came to Danny. Chin explained Dannys condition as Steve desperately tried to stay awake. "Hey" Chin patted him on the shoulder "go to sleep…you need to rest…you know Danny, he's going to be fine" Steve nodded as sleep claimed him and his eyes slipped shut .
