Sorry for the long wait. I kinda didn't have an afflation lately.

"Kainalu…" Steve greeted the Arson investigator after arriving at the scene. "Same MO?"

"Hello. Yes" nodded the Hawaiian man "The landlord said that the burned apartment belonged to a Marc 'Akamu"

"We know" interjected Danny "and it is his body in there…?"

"Looks like it. No reason for it to be somebody else." answered Kainalu.

They continued into the apartment to look around. The Arson didn't find anything except gasoline… again, so no much to go on, just like before. Just then Tani and Jay entered.

"Did anybody see anything?" asked the blond Detective.

"An older lady from one of ground floor apartments saw a kind of skinny guy in a black shirt and a hat." responded Halstead.

"Yeah… And one of the kids saw him too." added Tani "he said he had a "military vibe" and was sort of scary... the watch a lot of action movies and documentaries about military" she answered the question she saw in boys eyes.

"Sound like our guy." said Steve.

"But where is he…?" Danny wandered out loud.

"I got a friend who could help." uttered Jay and he felt all Five-0's eyes on him. "I can call her… but we will owe her dinner…"

"Ok." said McGarrett and made a go on motion.

Jay had called Mac and explained the situation to her. She told them about a way of tracking people through their body and moving patterns. She promised to find some footage of Avery from his military time and start the search. She was supposed to call them when she finds something.

In the mean time they decided to talk to the Avery Senior and people who could know anything about Connor. Tani and Quinn went to his military friends, Lue and Jay to his last known ex-girlfirend and Steve and Danny to the father, Adam Avery.

"Mr Avery!" Steve called out knocking "Five-0, we would like to talk about you son!"

A 50-something-year-old opened the door. Ha was tall and lanky, but seemed strong and… had a vibe … "like father, like son" thought Steve.

"Gentlemen" said the graying man before them. "I cannot tell you anything about Connor, I haven't seen him since his deployment ended, two years ago."

"What do you mean?" asked Danny, he was astonished anybody could just go without seeing their children for so long. Then again… he gave Steve a sideway glance, but didn't comment.

"I mean… he called. Twice since he came back… But didn't want to see me." answered the businessman honestly. You could say by looking in his eyes, that he was saddened by that outcome, but it was his son's choice. He respected that.

After about an hour longer conversation McGarrett and Williams left the house, but all they found out was that Connor had weird habits in his youth, and that he didn't like when Adam chastised him for acting on them. The deducted that the man himself was in military at some point and that is why he had requested his son to enlist.

*in the meantime*

Quinn and Tani had met up with AJ Brown, a medium height Afro-American and Finn Collins, a tall bulky blond – two guys Connor Avery was closest to in military.

"Guy was odd…" said AJ when Tani asked about the suspect. "He liked taking things that wasn't his"

"Yeah. And it was us to get him out of trouble, when he got caught." added Finn.

"So he was a thief?" asked Tani.

"Sort of. But I think he just…" Brown wasn't sure how to put it.

"… liked the rush." Collins hopped in "Seemed like he didn't really control it."

The girls thank them after asking some more questions.

"He's a kleptomaniac." said Quinn in the car.

Tani nodded.

*in the meantime*

Lou and Jay were led to the kitchen by a rather lithe red-headed girl – Adrianna. Apparently she was still seeing Connor, but they weren't a couple since his deployment started. He just liked to talk to her.

"He was always different… from others I mean." the girl started. "He was nice but drawn back, like he was trying to hide who he really was."

They nodded, while she continued. "That's why we broke up. I didn't actually know him… But…" she hesitated then.

"Please go on…" Jay prompted her with an apologetic smile.

"Well…" she took a deep breath "When we met after he came back from deployment, he was… seemed odd, to me. Different than before, but… I think that is who he really is…"

"Which is…?" asked Grover.

"He admitted to me he has problems… He feels an urge to steal, but… that is just what he told me. What scared me was what he did… how he acted. He was violent, temperamental. He liked talking to me, but wasn't happy when I had something to say…" she trailed off.

"Did he hurt you?" asked Halstead, concerned.

"No…" she shook her head "Almost… No. Well, I know he could. But he stopped himself."

They talked a bit more, and left.

*back in the HQ*

"OK. What do we got?" started Steve.

"Kleptomaniac." said Tani.

"With violent tendencies" added Jay.

Danny started to say something too, but his phone ringing stopped him.

"Williams." He answered. "Aha… Thanks Eric." He disconnected the call. "The geniuses got a match on the prints… Connor Avery is our guy."

"So… Robbery 10 years ago and three homicides." concluded McGarrett. At that moment Jay's phone rang.

"OK… WE owe you a dinner" he said over the phone, stressing we "Mac got the location" he told them after hanging up. "Looks like he is staying in one of the houses at Pakanu Street."

"Let's go get this son of a b**ch" said Steve…
