The next morning, Danny got off the elevator and opened the glass door leading to their offices. The first thing he did was to look for any sign of McGarrett. He walked up to Steve's office and shook his head when he saw him sleeping on the couch.

He opened the door to Steve's office and approached him.

"Hey!" He screamed in his ear. The next thing he knew, he was lying face down on the floor with his arm behind his back. "Hey! You big goof! Let go of me!"

"Danny? What on earth are you doing?"

"What am I doing? No...That's the question I should be asking you! What are you doing here? Didn't you go home last night?"

"Yes!"

"Oh really? Is that why I found you snoozing on the couch? Get up. We have work to do." Danny said and grabbed on to Steve's arm to force him to stand.

"Take it easy Danno. I have a headache."

"I bet you do. Now, tell me why you have the security footage outside the palace up on screen."

Steve nodded as they approached the touch screen computer. "Watch this." He said as he began rewinding the tape. He stopped it and zoomed in on Wo Fat at the front of the building.

Lou Grover came in and approached the two. He had been off work for a couple days and didn't know what was going on.

"Hey everybody! We got a case?"

Neither one answered as another camera popped up in front of the one they were looking at. "Woah, what's this?" Danny questioned.

"Looks like my office." Steve said.

"Its live. Rewind the tape."

"Why?"

"Because I want to see you sleeping Steven. Just do it. That camera is there for a reason." Steve nodded and did as he was asked.

"There." Grover said as he pointed at the screen. "Zoom it in."

Steve did so and they all watched.

"He put something in my coffee." He said.

"A sedative." Danny said. "How did he get into the office?"

"Good question. Why would he feel the need to drug me? I don't get it."

"Maybe he wanted to tell us that your an easy target to get to. If that's the case..."

"Danny I swear to God, if you mention anything about having a security detail on me I will kill you."

Danny put his hands up. "Easy there big guy. Its just a suggestion. A very good one I might add. If it eyewas any one of us, you would make sure we are safe. So because its you that's what we're going to do."

"Okay fine. You win."

"I'm sorry, what?" Danny said.

"You win Danny."

"Steve, are you running a fever? I thought you just said I won an argument with you."

"Will you just shut up? I'm going to go home and get some proper sleep."

"I'll call HPD and send a unit over to your house to keep an eye on you."

This time, Steve didn't even bother arguing. Instead, he turned his back on them and started leaving the office.

"Be safe!" Grover yelled back.

"Always."

"You mean Never Steven because for some reason trouble tends to find you wherever you go!"

Steve ignored him and left the office.

Lou and Danny looked at each other. "Should one of us follow?"

Lou shook his head. "No. He can take care of himself."


Steve exited the palace and made sure his hand was on his gun just in case. He jogged up to his truck and got in. He started the truck but before he could do anything else, he felt something metal press against his neck.

"Hello brother." Wo Fat said.

Steve looked in the rear view mirror. "Should have seen this coming."

"Hand me your firearm slowly. If you try anything, ill put a bullet through your head."

"Just like you tried last time?"

"Don't tempt me Mr. McGarrett. Now, I want you to drive."

"Where we going?"

"Your house. I've never been where your father was murdered."

"I'll kill you. I swear to God."

Wo Fat hit Steve in the head with the butt of the gun. "Drive."
