FIVE-0 Headquarters
It was now 10.00am and they had made their way back to HQ. Danny waited at the house with Mae until she was ready to leave. He didn't want to leave her alone. She had spent about 10 minutes crying into Danny's shoulder while still on the living room floor of her house. She really didn't know what to make of everything but she knew that Danny would stay and listen for a long a she needed him. After Mae had started to calm down, Danny decided that it was time to get her out of there and head back to HQ.
"Hey Mae" she just looked at him waiting for him to continue.
"I am going to take you back to where I work, we are going to figure out what happened to your mom. I am going to do everything I can to make sure that I get some answers for you" the detective told her.
She didn't know what to say, all she could do was hug him tightly and just nod. They made their way off the floor and Mae went up to her room to pack a bag of toys and clothes. She wasn't sure how long it would be until she would be coming home again. After she had come back down stairs with her backpack to where Danny was waiting for her they got into Danny's car and headed back to HQ.
Once they arrived back at HQ, they got out of the car and walked up to the Five-0 offices. Danny walked in with the little girl by his side holding his hand. As they walked in they saw Chin and Kono around the computer table looking over the case. As soon as they notice Mae walk in with Danny, they quickly removed everything from the screen so she wouldn't see it.
"Hey Danny, how is she doing" Chin asked Danny
"She is doing okay considering what she's just been through" Danny said
"Kono will you please take her to get some food and something to drink" Danny asked Kono
Kono just nodded her head. She went to grab Mae's hand from Danny but she wouldn't let go of his hand, all she did was squeeze tighter.
"Mae, it okay. This is Kono, I work with her, she is very nice. She is going to take you to get something to eat. I promise you that I will be here when you get back" Danny told her. She let go of Danny's hand and took Kono's and walked out. Once they were far enough away Danny began talking to Chin about the case.
"So what do we have so far" Danny asked Chin
"Well there were visible signs of a struggle. The CSU team found this red tie stuffed between the couch cushions" Chin said while bringing up a photo of the crime scene and the tie.
"When they ran the DNA on it, it came back to Alexis Walker and Eli Miller. Max just sent through the autopsy report and it states that she was strangled" He said
"Speaking of DNA, we need to collect Mae's so that we can eliminate her from the samples that were collected at the scene" Chin informed Danny
"Okay, I will do it when she gets back" Danny said
"What else do we have, do we have anything on Eli Miller" Danny asked
"Eli Miller, well he has a record, but only for a few misdemeanours nothing like this" Chin said.
"By the look of it, he was Alexis's boyfriend" he continued
After Chin had informed Danny of what they had so far, Kono walked back in with Mae. Mae went and stood next to Danny again with her sandwich and juice box in her hand. Danny walked her into his office and settled her down on the couch. He wanted to know a little bit about her so he went and sat next to her on the couch.
"So Mae, can you tell me about your family" He asked her
"Well, it was just me and my mom. I've never meet my father. My mom said that he is a Navy Seal and that he was overseas when she had me" She said to Danny
"What about Eli Miller" the detective asked her
"He was my mom's boyfriend. I never really liked him, I always thought that there was something about him but I couldn't quite figure it out" she answered him
"Well you don't have to worry about him anymore" he informed her
He left her for a little bit on the couch to finish her sandwich. He want back out to where Chin and Kono were standing around the table.
"Did she say anything" Kono asked him
"She said that he was her mom's boyfriend and that there was something about him that she never liked" he told them
"Well it looks like she has good instincts" Kono said to the team
After Mae was finished eating Danny went back into his office with a DNA kit. He got the sample from her. He went and brought it down to Fong in the crime lab.
After about half an hour, he returned to HQ to check on Mae. He found her fast asleep on the couch in his office. He went out to the main area with the others when a video call started coming through.
"Hey guys, it Fong" Chin told the team. He answer the call and the video showed up on the big screen
"Hey Fong, what's up" Chin asked him
"Well, I put the DNA that Danny gave me into the system and ran it against what we collected from the scene to eliminate it" Fong told them and then continued
"But then, it come up with having a paternal DNA match to a sample that is already on file"
"Okay Fong, who is it?" Danny asked him
"Brace yourself guys. It come back as a match to Lieutenant Commander Steve McGarrett" he informed the team
Silence filled the room. Everyone was looking at each other, trying to comprehend what they just heard. After a few minutes, Danny finally spoke.
"Are you sure Charlie" Danny asked him
"Yes, I am. There is a 99.99% match" Fong told them
"Thank you Charlie". Chin hung up the video call. They didn't really know what just happened
"What are we going to do, this is going to change Steve's life drastically" Kono asked
"I'm not sure yet, but what I do know is that she is going to stay with me until Steve returns in 2 days and then we will figure out how to tell him about her"
