"DANNY!"

Steve bellowed once more. A very tiny part of his brain realised that it probably was not the best idea to yell out his partner's name if he was indeed the person who the shot was aimed at.

But right now he was definitely not thinking straight and if it wasn't for Chin's restraining hand on his shoulder. He would have barged into wherever the fuckers had taken him and shot them dead without a blink of an eye.

"Steve you need to stay quiet."

Chin hissed from behind his boss. The usually cheerful Hawaii native was trying to pull Steve behind a wall, so that they wouldn't be noticed if anybody was to appear suddenly.

He had never seen Steve so distressed, but then again Danny had never been in this much danger even when he had been poisoned by Wo Fat's men two years ago.

Steve pulled again against Chin's hold and this time he managed to release the man's grip on his bulletproof vest.

"Shit!"

Chin muttered, sliding his gun back into the holster on his belt and chasing the heels of the Navy SEAL.

Footsteps that didn't belong to either of the five 0 members, sounded and Steve stopped again, gesturing to Chin. Raising their weapons, they rounded the corner.

Somebody was calling his name. It was faint, very very distant in fact. But it was there, Danny knew it. He tried to open his mouth to speak, but all that came out was a thick trickle of blood.

Maybe if he could crawl over to the door, he would have a clearer view of the oncoming danger even if he couldn't do anything about it.

Time was running out, too quickly. If he had thought that Steve was going to come rescue him before now… Well he definitely needed him to turn up soon.

Rolling over onto his stomach, he yelled out at the excruciating pain, the bullet shifting inside of him, so that it hit his ribcage. He didn't care who heard him, didn't care how weak he sounded. What he wouldn't give to be back at his parents' home on Jersey, hell even back in Steve's bed right now. He was stupid to ever think that he could make a difference, should have known better than to take on a child murderer single handed.

Danny was giving up,.

He knew that this job would kill him eventually. He just didn't think it would be this soon. He would never see his Gracie again, never hear her laugh or sing.

This is it. I'm sorry Gracie, I love you so much baby.

I'm sorry Steve I never doubted you not for a second.

His mind was still racing and Danny would do anything for it all to just stop now.

"Where is he?"

Steve waved his gun in front of the suspect's face. The middle aged man, sitting in front of him was definitely not giving up any vital information. Instead, he just sneered up at him, revealing a set of crooked yellowing teeth.

Chin had set off to inspect the rest of the warehouse, forbidding Steve to go with him for obvious reasons.

"Okay so tell me this. Why choose Danny Williams? It's not like he wouldn't have put up much of a fight, same as the rest of us."

"He is the one with the kid right?"

Steve's eyes narrowed dangerously and he crouched down so that he could look into watery grey eyes.

"Oh you wanted to get your hands on Grace?"

The man inclined his head, a knowing smile gracing his lips. Steve laughed once, without humour and after a few moments of inspecting his gun handle, he raised the firearm and struck it against the bastard's skull, watching in satisfaction as his eyes rolled backwards. He made his way backwards towards the exit as the backup that Chin had radioed in came rushing to take over from Steve.

"Well bad luck, buddy, you're forgetting who her ohana is."

Chin had searched four of the warehouse stockrooms with no luck. He had reached the door of the fifth and stopped outside when he heard the tortured sound of somebody coughing up what sounded like their lungs.

"Danny?"

He whispered, unsure of what he was going to do if it was not his friend.

The coughing came to an abrupt stop.

"C-Chin?"

"Yeah brah it's me. Listen I'm gonna come get you okay. I just need to find Steve."

"No! Please… You can't leave me here alone …Please."

"I'm not Danny, I promise. I just have to tell Steve, he'll be able to get in."

"Why-why can't you?"

"The door is wired bud. With Steve's training, he'll get you out there before you can say 'pineapple', you know he will."

He was rewarded with a deep shuddering breath, which he took to be a laugh.

"Y-Yeah okay."

"All right, hold tight. Do not black out on me okay Danny? I need you to be alert."

"I don't know if I can."

Chin looked round desperately. He had stupidly forgotten that his phone had no signal in the warehouse when he had told Steve that he would ring if he found anything.

The place was certainly not small and it could take Steve and the rest of HPD at least an hour to get to them.

He cursed under his breath and leant his head against the wall.

"Talk to me Danny, okay? Talk about Grace."

"I… I- What should I say about her?"

Chin laughed despite his panic.

"I don't know brah, you tell me, she's your daughter. Tell me what you did last weekend."

"I don't…. Shit, Chin, I don't remember."

"Yeah you do. C'mon buddy. You and Gracie were at Steve's yeah?"

"Steve. Where the hell is Steve?"

"He's coming I promise. So you were at Steve's house."

"Yeah."

"Okay, and?"

"We uh, we spent the day on the beach I think. Then we had pasta for supper."

"Good, that's good."

He dug the phone out of his pocket, to check the reception. Still nothing.

A/N: This was a lot longer than I planned so I thought maybe this was a good place to stop? It's nearly 11 pm here and I've been awake since 1 AM so I have no idea if this makes sense but once I started typing I couldn't stop :D xx hope you like.
