Chapter 14 Missing
Danny was shocked that he let Steve be kidnapped and he wasn't there to stop it. Chin put his hand on Danny's shoulder and sighed.
"We should go inside to see if Callen and Sam are okay."
Danny nodded and got up slowly. He felt responsible that Steve was taken. He knew that it was pointless to think that but that was how he felt. He followed Chin and Kono inside the house. Kono and Chin dragged Callen and Sam to the inside of the house and put them on the couch, sitting them up. Chin grabbed something from the kitchen and went back to the family room. It was tobasco sauce. He put under their noses and Callen and Sam were beginning to wake up.
Callen groaned and slowly opened his eyes. "What happened?" he said, softly.
"We don't know, we found you both on the ground when we came in. Are you and Sam okay?"
Callen stretches and realizes that everything is in working order, just a little bit stiff. He hears Sam groan and start to wake up.
"Okay, why do I feel like someone hit me enough to knock me out?"
Kono laughed, while Danny and Chin smiled.
"Where's Steve?" Sam asks the trio, wondering where his Navy SEAL friend is. He looks at the three's faces and gets a feeling of dread. He doesn't want to think what is happening to Steve right now.
"We got to find him, no matter what."
Don't worry, we will. But first we need to know what happened here with you guys," reasoned Danny. "What happened to you guys and why did we find you unconscious?"
Callen looked at Sam before replying, "We were talking about how Sam met Steve and we talked some more about this place. I kept feeling as though we were being watched by someone. Sam did a complete walkthrough the house and we met in the kitchen. Two guys came at us from nowhere and jumped us by surprise. We put up a good fight but they got the upper hand and knocked us out with something and the next thing we knew, you guys were here wondering what we were doing on the floor."
"Alright, are you guys okay?" asked Kono.
Both Sam and Callen nodded.
"Good, maybe you guys could help us figure out who took Steve," Chin said.
The five of them went to the Five-0 headquarters and started to rummage around the case files that were important to Steve. Sam had the best advantage of everyone in that room because he knew Steve longer than anyone else. Chin and Callen worked together on where he was when he was missing, while the other three worked on where Steve might have been stashed. All of them worked for three hours and they still got nothing. They heard a cell phone ring and it was Callen's.
"Hello?"
The voice on the other end was distorted. "I hear that you are missing someone in that office of yours. Oh and don't try to put a trace on this phone, you won't be able to trace it."
"What do you want?"
"I want nothing, but maybe my boss wants something." Callen hears some voices in the background but they are muffled. "My boss wants a ransom of 2,000 dollars and an airplane out of Hawaii. He will then tell you where Steve McGarrett is. You have six hours to complete the dead line or he dies. I will call each hour for an update on how you are doing."
The caller hung up and Callen looked at the rest of the people that were with him.
"Okay, that was weird. Why did he only call me and not any of you guys?"
Sam shrugged. "Good question, hey, did you recognize the voice at all?"
"It was distorted, but it was clear. I could hear everyword he said."
"Did you hear anything useful in the background that could help us?" asked Chin.
Callen thought for a moment. "I heard creaky noises and loud footsteps. I don't think that will help at all."
"What about the demands?" asked Kono.
"He said he wanted $2,000 and an airplane out of Hawaii. He also said that we have six hours to complete the deadline or he dies and that he will call each hour to check up on us to see if we are going to meet his demands."
Danny sighed and hung his head. "Okay, we need to find out who this guy is and where this person is holding him. Callen, if he calls you every time, you need to keep him talking and put it on speaker phone."
Callen nodded and got to work with Chin.
Fifty-five minutes later...
Callen was pacing and was getting antsy about waiting for the call. He knew something was familiar about the voice that he couldn't place. It was bugging him but he knew that when the time would come he would remember the voice.
"Sam I need to speak with you," Callen demanded.
Sam followed Callen to an empty office so they couldn't be heard. "What's wrong?"
"Why do you think the ransom caller is calling me instead of the other people here? I mean I may not know him personally but I do care that he comes back alive.
Sam thought for a while before responding. "Maybe he called you because you aren't friends with Steve and that you don't know him personally. I think he is just trying to use you in getting whatever he wants and you can't do anything because you don't have any ties with him whereas everybody else does. So you need to do everything we say until Steve comes back to us alive."
Right then Callen's cell phone went off and they both went back to where everyone else was so they could hear what was being said.
"Clock's ticking, Agent Callen," said the distorted voice.
"I can tell," replied Callen, "where is Steve?"
"Somewhere you'll never find him."
"Can I talk to him?"
"He is not available at the moment. He is still alive."
"Are you going to tell us where you stashed him?"
"After we are gone from Hawaii. Get the money also or you won't see your boss ever again."
The person on the other end hung up and Callen sighed. "What now?"
Everyone else shrugged. Kono thought of something and walked fast inside her office and came back with files.
"I think if we look into these old case files of Steve's we might be able to figure out who the kidnapper is."
"Alright," agreed Chin, "let's get to it and see what we find."
They worked hard over the course of an hour and the caller called back to check with the progress, telling them that they had only three more hours to get the money or else.
Steve felt really dizzy when he woke up. His whole body ached and he realized that he was tied up and chained to a wall. For a moment he remembers the dream he had about being chained somewhere. He sighed knowing that this wasn't going to go well. He tried to think of a way to get out of this mess but couldn't think straight. He looked around him and saw that he was in a jail cell of some sort. It looked like an old bunker. Suddenly he remembered the other dream he had and realized that he was in something like this before. He didn't even know who kidnapped him let alone on where he was. He just had a sudden image of his team all laughing and having a great time. He hoped that it was a real memory. That would help him if things went downhill. He heard a door open and saw someone come in. He couldn't see the person because it was so dark but then the guy came into the light.
What Steve saw made his breath go away. He thought he was a good guy. And then another guy came in and when Steve saw him it made his blood run cold.
He would be lucky to survive.
A/N: I am a bit evil. Will Steve make it out alive? Will his team be able to save him? Will Steve be able to remember everthing? Who did Steve see that made him fear for his life?Those questions will be answered as long as people review. I just started working on Chapter 15 so if i get three reviews you might see the chapter faster! I am so excited about the season 3 premire! Hope that you guys enjoy it too. Please review!
