Wrong Place, Very Wrong Time II

Disclaimer: I do not own Hawaii 5-0. Nope, I don't but that won't stop me from playing with the characters.

Thank you for the lovely reviews. It is nice to be back writing.

Chapter 2

James held up his hands in an effort to calm his little brother.

"Cool off Paulie, we can handle this cop," he announced. "He won't be awake for long. You open the trunk and I will knock him out."

James withdrew the gun from the back of his pants and moved to the trunk with Paul following. After putting the key in the lock, the younger boy lifted the lid while James held the gun by the barrel and raised high. When Danny lunged upward to take on Paul, James swung the gun grip down on the back of Williams' head. Danny slid back into unconsciousness as his assailant shoved the gun back into his waistband and began to search Danny's pockets. He found the detective's cuffs and pulling Danny's arms behind his back, he snapped them on.

"There, he is secured. Now that wasn't too tough was it?" James said smugly. "We need to take him to Uncle."

"Maybe we should leave him here Jimmy. Do you really think he will be able to identify you? You knocked him on the head, he may be fuzzy on all the details," Paul pleaded. "You can go away…change your name. We don't have to do anything more to this guy."

"No….I can't take the chance and I'm not running anymore," James said firmly. He slammed the trunk closed. "I'm not letting a few liquor store and convenience store robberies land me in the joint." He grabbed the keys out of the trunk lock and then marched back to the Camaro. "I'm wiping this car down and then we're going home."

After digging around in the backseat, James found a scarf on the floor. Taking it, he quickly wiped down the steering wheel and anything else he could remember touching. When he finished, he threw the cloth back into the rear seat and got out, closing the door with his hip.

"Get in the car Paulie, we are going home. If you want to be stubborn then you can walk home," he taunted as he jingled the keys in his hand.

Paul scurried to the car's passenger side and got in. He was petrified by what they were involved in but didn't want Jimmy to leave him behind.

Chin Ho Kelly exited his office and hurried over to McGarrett's office. He rapped lightly on the door before entering.

"What's up Chin?" Steve enquired as he looked up from his laptop.

"Have you heard from Danny lately? He should have been back by now," Chin stated in concern.

"He checked in after getting the witnesses statement," Steve responded as he checked his watch and frowned. "You're right; he should be back by now." He looked up, concern radiating off him. "Have you tried calling him?"

"I did, couldn't reach him. You know reception is spotty up on the North Shore," Chin replied.

Steve nodded as he rose to his feet and headed out to the main room where Kono and Catherine waited.

"Kono, see if you can locate the Camaro with the GPS," Steve instructed quickly. "Danny isn't back yet."

"Aren't we over- reacting a bit?" Kono as her fingers flew over the table. "Danny will be pissed if he took a long lunch and you call him on it."

"Danny is supposed to pick Grace up at school in about fifteen minutes. He should have been back at least an hour ago. By now he should be in cell phone range but he's not answering," Steve pointed out tersely.

The others were silent for a moment while they digested Steve's words. They all knew Danny would never let anything get in the way of picking up Grace. His not responding to phone calls meant something was seriously wrong.

"Forget I said anything," Kono mumbled and frowned at the table as the Camaro's location flashed on the table map. "What on earth is Danny doing at Waimea Falls?" she asked the others.

"He wouldn't be…not voluntarily," Catherine said quietly.

"We are going up there now," Steve declared. "Cath…..please go collect Grace from school and take care of her. Rachel is out of town but Grace knows you and will go with you. We'll check in when we know more."

"Sure thing Steve," Catherine agreed instantly and headed for the door.

"Chin…..Kono; let's take separate vehicles in case we need to split up. We need to locate Danny, I have a bad feeling about this," he continued with his instructions.

"I've got my bike," Chin informed him. "I'll alert CSU that we will need them up at the Falls to process the scene."

"Good idea. Kono, take point and follow the GPS," Steve agreed and headed out to his truck without another word. He was finding it difficult to ignore the nagging voice in the back of his mind, telling him that something was seriously wrong. Danny would never neglect Grace without contacting someone to cover for him. His partner needed him and he was anxious to get to Waimea Falls.

The Charger rumbled down a dirt road near Kawailoa that led to a secluded, modest ranch house on a large parcel of land. There were several other structures sitting at the area around the main house and shielding Kapono Lee's main money maker that grew behind a protective stand of trees. The Wilson boy's Uncle was a successful marijuana grower who had managed to hide under the law enforcement radar. To the public he was known for owning a small convenience store near Kawailoa Beach and he kept his nose clean, giving the authorities no reason to check him out more closely. He had agreed to take in his sister's sons when the oldest made some stupid choices.

Hearing the Charger pull into the yard, he left the building where he had been packaging his product to see what was happening. The panicked look on Paul's face was he exited the car created a surge of worry to shoot through him.

"You boys should have been home sooner," he announced as he walked towards them.

"We've got trouble Uncle," Paul said breathlessly.

"What happened?" Kapono asked in concern.

"We were just having some fun," James protested as he came around the car's front. "A cop stopped us but we dealt with him. We just need some help getting rid of him before others come looking." He headed casually to the trunk of the car.

"Are you telling me that you kidnapped a cop?" Kapono asked in shock.

"He's 5-0 Uncle," Paul added.

"Are you two completely lolo?" their uncle sputtered. "You grabbed a member of the Governor's task force and brought him here…to my home? Are you looking to get me arrested and all of us thrown into Halawa?" He glared at his nephews in horror.

"He took us by surprise Uncle," James tried to explain. "We were just trying to encourage a little racing; this cop came out of nowhere. Once he saw my face, I panicked. What if he could tie me to the robberies on Maui? What else could I do?" he asked defensively.

"Are you two lolohi? Do you have any idea who runs that task force? There is a Navy SEAL in charge and he'll be out for blood if you harm a member of his team," his uncle shouted. "You will bring him to my place, he will discover my crop and I will be arrested."

"We didn't know he was 5-0 right away," James lied. "We were just having a little fun and he went ballistic."

"You just couldn't keep your nose clean for a little while, could you?"the older man sighed. "You have the law looking for you and you had to go out and screw up. And now you expect me to clean up this mess for you. What do you suggest?"

"I just figured you would know someone who could help us," James said staring at the dirt at his uncle's feet. "I'm sorry Uncle, I didn't think some racing around would cause this trouble," he added looking up at Kapono with regret.

"You didn't think….that is the problem," Kapono grumbled.

"Can't we just dump him somewhere Uncle?" Paul asked anxiously. "It could take a long time before anyone finds him. Jimmy could be long gone by then."

"And just where do you think your brother should go?" Kapono asked in irritation. "He couldn't stay out of trouble here, where he had a safe haven. How will he manage to behave anywhere else? Where did you leave the cop's car?"

"We left it up by the Falls, on a side road," Jimmy told him. "It isn't easy to see."

"We can dump him somewhere else….someplace in the middle of nowhere," Paul suggested, not ready to let go of the plan.

"And when they do, he'll point a finger right at you two," Kapono sighed. "I have to have time to think. Get him out of the car, blindfold him and tie him up. Put him in the small shed until I know what to do," he instructed.

"I cuffed him with his own cuffs," James said eagerly. "Come on Paul, let's do as Uncle said."

The two boys hurried to do what they were told, relieved that Danny was still out cold. They roughly hauled him out and carried him to the smallest shed. Inside, he was dumped on the floor and Paul found a rag that he tied around Danny's head to blindfold him. James tied the detective's feet together with a piece of rope and stepped back to observe their work. He nodded happily and they left Williams locked in the shed.

Kapono Lee headed back to the building where he had been working when his nephews had returned. He had no clue how to dispose of this cop and he feared that he would need to ask some of his more ruthless buyers for help. He hated the idea of arranging a man's death but he had sworn to his sister that he would protect her boys. The fact that James did nothing to help prevent this situation stretched the older man's patience but they were ohana and he would do what he could to take care of them.

End chapter.

Thank you for reading. Now we have to see if Steve and the team can get a clue as to where Danny is before Kapono figures out how to get rid of him.
