They all drove to Kono's house. "Kono!...Kono is us, You in there?" Steve thought he heard something, but he wasn't sure. "Kono, we're comming in!" He busted the door open.

The team and searched the house, her house was a disaster...Whatever happened in there...Kono obviously put up a fight.

Katie stayed by Steves side...Untill she heard what sounded like a muffled scream comming from the bathroom. She walked over... "Dad, in here...its locked"

Steve listened..he heard it too. "Kono, I'm coming in!" He busted the door down, and inside was kono tied to a chair, her mouth tapped shut and her hands & feet tapped.

"Kono!" Katie yelled, her and Steve started untapping and untieing her. She had bruises on her face

"What happened?" Steve said checking out the bruises, it wasn't anything serious.

"Two guys with masks, I'm guessing Wo Fats men, they caught me off gaurd. Tied me up and asked me about Shelburn. I told them i didn't know and they said to let this be a warning to me and you guys...for more to come."

Steve shook his head. "Come on, lets get you cleaned up, you can stay at my place for a little bit untill I know its safe for you to stay here by yourself"

"Thanks boss"

Katie hugged Kono, kind of excited that she was able to stay at her house.

A few days later Kono went back to her house, and things with Wo Fat had been pretty quiet.

Steve and Katie were at home one day getting ready to go to the HQ, when Steve asked her something he'd been wanted to ask but never knew the right time.

"Hey Kate, do you happen to have a picture...of Sus-of your mom?"

Katie looked down...without saying anything, she pulled out a picture that was in her pocket and handed it to him. "I take it everywhere. Its always in my pocket, makes me feel like shes still here."

Steve looked at the picture, "Wow, still beautiful. You look a lot like her you know."

"Yeah.."

Steve handed her the picture. He noticed she had started crying...not just a little. A lot.

"Kaite, are you okay? Is there something else on your mind?"

"Um, no..I'm fine, don't you have to leave for work soon?" She said trying to shake the question.

"Yeah, lets go"

The whole ride there was silent. Katie was still crying, her eyes were swollen. She had tried not to think about what happened anymore. Talking about it with her dad brought it all back though.

They walked in the HQ and Katie went straight to Steves office without saying anything to anyone.

"She OK?" Danny asked

"I'm not sure. She showed me a picture of Susan before we left, ever since then she just lost it. I tried to ask her what was up but she avoided it"

Kono stepped in "Maybe you should try again. She obviously needs you right now."

Steve looked at his daughter, laying on the couch in his office, still crying. He hated seeing her cry. "Yeah, OK i will"

"Hey Katie can we talk about this?"

"No. I don't want to."

The stubborn McGarrett side was coming out of her again "Common, theres obviously something wrong. I'm here for you, just tell me."

She sat up and looked at him.

"I saw it. I saw it happen and it was my fault." She said

"What in the world are you talking about? Nothing was your fault!"

"Yes Dad, it was! I wanted to go to my friends house. Really bad. She said no, and I got really mad. I snuck out and went anyways. When she found out she came to pick me up, she was really mad at me. Then I seen it. I seen the car that ran the red light and hit her. Dad I saw the whole thing and it was all because i wanted to go to a stupid friends house!"

Steve was not expecting that at all. He was fighting back tears himself. "I'm so sorry Katie. But you cant blame yourself. It could have been anyone, I know your mom well enough to know, she loved you very much. And the last thing she would want is for you to feel like this is your fault."

"Yeah but of I would have just listened, and stayed home that night. She would still be here...she wouldn't be gone dad."

Steve just hugged his daughter.

"Listen to me, your mother would want you to let that go. She loves you and she knew you loved her very much. One thing about your mom that I loved was how forgiving she was. And she is still here. She'll always be here Katie. I love you"

"Love you too dad"
