AN: Here's the next chapter! Enjoy!
Kono drives up to the cliff and puts the car in neutral. She grabs a stick and puts it on the gas pedal and shoves the other end against the seat. The car begins revving and Kono shuts the door and moves to the back of the car. She sets her gloved hands on the back of the trunk and begins pushing. The car moves to the edge and eventually over it. Kono glances down and watches as the car crashes into the rocks and then into the ocean where it sinks beneath the ocean.

Eric looks up and sees Steve walk over to him. Unlocking the door, Eric lets Steve into the room and tells him where to find the weapons.
Steve quickly makes his way to the back of the room where the larger evidence is held. He hurriedly locates the weapons and speedily begins taking them out of the container and begins placing them in another container. All they have to do is make it look like the evidence is gone. Enough that HPD is put in a frenzy and Sampson will believe it's been stolen. Once the containers are empty, Steve places them on a dolly and pulls it back towards the front.
Getting a nod from Eric that it's safe, Steve swiftly wheels the containers through the door and down the hall to the rear exit.

Kono looks up when a van pulls up and she grins. The passenger window rolls down and Kamekona looks out at her. Opening the door, Kono climbs into the van.
"All good lil' sistah?" Kamekona asks and Kono nods her head.

Lou looks up and sees Steve roll the containers out the back door and loads them into the back of the van. Shutting the doors, Steve bangs on them. Lou starts up the van and immediately drives off. Steve rolls the dolly back inside and leaves it in the hall before walking back towards Evidence. As he passes Eric, Steve gives him a nod but keeps walking.

Chin watches the video feed and smirks when he sees Steve show up. Taking it as his cue, Chin resets the feed on the other cameras so they are live once again. Chin exits the video feed and shuts his computer down. Closing the computer, Chin packs it up in the bag and sets it in his backseat.
A few minutes later, Chin sees Steve approach the car. The passenger door opens and Steve climbs in and shuts the door. Chin starts car up and looks over at his boss.
"We good?" he asks and Steve nods his head.
"Let's get out of here," Steve says and Chin takes off towards HQ.

Eric looks up when footsteps approach and a disgruntled looking cop appears. A glance at his name tag tells Eric this is Michaels. Michaels looks over at Eric and furrows his brow. Eric returns it with a small smile.
"Who are you?" Michaels asks and looks around them.
"The boss heard about your accident. Sent me down here to cover for you till you got in," Eric explains and Michaels nods his head and offers a grunt.
"Yeah, moron ran into the side rear of me," Michaels says with a scowl and a shake of his head.
"Man, sorry about that. They catch the guy?" Eric asks as Michaels walks through the door and switches positions with him. Michaels shakes his head.
"Naw, cameras couldn't get a picture and the car's not registered," Michaels explains and scowls again.
"Hope it works out for ya man," Eric says and exits Evidence and shuts the door.
"Thanks," Michaels says and waves to Eric who wave back before walking down the hall.

Lou drives the van up to the warehouse and honks three times. The door rolls up and he drives inside. As soon as he clears the entrance, the door rolls back down. Lou turns the van off and climbs out, shutting the door behind him.
"I hope this works," Lou says and a bald man rounds the front of the van.
"It will," Joe White says with a determined look. He leads Lou to a crate and opens it up. Inside are weapons.
"You think they'll pass for the real ones?" Lou asks as he looks up from the fake weapons and over at Joe.
"As long as he doesn't inspect them too closely. My guess is he won't because he'll be wanting to get out fast," Joe replies as he meets Lou's gaze. Lou nods his head and shakes Joe's hand before walking over to where he parked his SUV earlier.

Steve looks up when Lou, the last of the group, walks into HQ. The plan had gone without a hitch and it made Steve nervous. His gut tells him something will go wrong but he can't figure out what. All he can do is wait and hope for the best and be ready for when something does go wrong.
"We good?" Steve asks, echoing Chin's question earlier, and Lou nods his head. Steve nods his head in turn and forces a swallow Chin notices.
"It'll work Steve," he says as he tries to alleviate Steve's fear. Steve looks over at him and notices the fear in Eric's eyes as he does.
"Yeah, I know," Steve says with a nod and forces the fear down. He couldn't be afraid right now; his team needs him to be strong. The whole team jumps slightly when Steve's phone rings. Steve looks down and sees it's an unknown number. He shares a look with the team.
"He's early," Kono says and it only further supports the theory Sampson has eyes on them. Steve pushes the button and puts the phone to his ear.
"Yeah?"

"Steve, you can't be serious," Chin says as he watches his boss move about HQ. Sampson knew they had the weapons and was calling with an address of a warehouse to meet at. Sampson left two directions. One, that Steve bring the weapons. And two, that Steve come alone unarmed.
"You know this is probably a trap," Lou chimes in and Kono nods her head.
"This is Danny. I'm going to do what I have to to get him back. No matter the danger," Steve rounds on them with a firm voice and a dark look.
"At least wear an ear piece," Kono says and holds the tech out to him. Steve shakes his head.
"I don't want to take the chance. He'll kill Danny if he suspects anything," Steve counters and Lou groans in aggravation.
"I don't know how Williams does this all the time," he grumbles out and throws his hands in the air.
"This is happening. Whether you like it or not. If you're where you're supposed to be then we'll catch this guy and get Danno back safe," Steve says as he brooks no room for argument. With that, he grabs his keys and walks out of HQ.
