Here's the next chapter awesome readers! I won't rattle on but it's action packed! ENJOY!

Steve's phone began to ring just as he reached the North Shore.

"McGarrett."

"Take the next left and turn into the dark blue garage."

"Andrews-" Steve started but the call was cut.

He parked in the garage and slowly took his gun out of its holster as he made his way into the garage office.

"I'm not stupid McGarrett. Put your gun down." A voice came from behind him. Steve spun and pointed his weapon at the man. Andrews had his arm around Catherine's neck and his gun at her head. She was beaten and bruised.

"Cath? Are you alright?" Steve called. Andrews whispered something in her ear and she quickly nodded. She hated being the damsel in distress and Steve knew that. "Let her go."

"Put your weapon down." Steve reluctantly placed his gun on the floor in front if him. "Kick it over."

"I do know how this works." Steve snapped kicking the gun. Andrews bent to pick it up and pushed Catherine to Steve. Before he could get her to run, Andrews had the gun pointed back at them.

"Some people never learn." Andrews said as Steve pushed Cath behind him. "I had far too much fun with her to let her go again."

"Son of a bitch!" Steve lept forward and knocked Andrews to the ground. His gun went off and the bullet whizzed past Steve's head. Andrews rolled on top of Steve and pointed the gun at his chest.

"I was dismissed from the force because of you. You testified against me. You told them I raped that Iraqi wom-"

"Because you did-"

"You didn't have to tell them that."

"So to get back at me, you thought you would start raping women in Hawaii?"

"I was working my way up to Catherine. I remember how you always had a soft spot for her. And I have to admit, she was very good."

"Shut up-"

"But now I'm going to kill you-"

"Put your hands up Andrews!" Danny shouted as he ran into the warehouse followed by Chin and HPD backup. Andrews head clocked up while Steve tried to turn to face Danny. Andrews raised his gun. "Slowly place your weapon on the ground."

But Andrews moved the gun to his own head. "You're a son of a bitch McGarrett. See you in hell." And then he pulled the trigger. He flopped. Steve pulled himself up from underneath him and looked down. "Book 'em Danno." Steve said.

"Shut up. You and me" he indicated with his hands, "we are going to have a little talk later on, alright?"

Steve winked at him before rushing to Catherine. "

"Cath are you OK?" She looked weak. And he pulled her into himself. She felt good. Kind of like she belonged and for a millisecond he forgot about Kono. But only a millisecond. Catherine fell into him. "It's alright. He can't hurt you anymore Cath. OK? Look at me babe?" But she didn't. Steve knelt down and held her in his arms. Her eyes were closed and her lips were slightly parted. "Danny! Where's an ambulance?"

"Here in a minute-Oh my God. Is she alright?" There was genuine concern in his voice."

Steve checked her heartbeat. "I've got her a faint pulse."

Just then the paramedics ran in and carried Catherine to the ambulance. Steve followed quickly.

"Steve what about Kono?"

"Tell her I'll see her when I'm home."

"Steve-"

"I'll call her Danny alright? Catherine needs someone with her." He patted his best friend on the shoulder and jumped into the ambulance. He would just have to explain to Kono later. She would understand. Wouldn't she?
