A/N: Just a quick announcement. I may or may not be able to upload chapters 10, -11, -12 (That should go up on 11th-, 13th-, 15th of August) on time. I'm going on a holiday and I don't know if I will have Interenet connection or enough free time to write them. Sorry in advance if I don't.
Now, I hope you will enjoy the reunion you were waiting for! ~
Someone just saved her. As the man holding her was falling to the side, more and more from her unknown savior was shown. And soon she recognized the figure of...
Steve McGarrett.
Steve. He was there for her. Her Steve.
"Oh my God." Her eyes filling with tears of happiness, that was the only thing she could say.
"Cath." Steve ran to her and gave her a tight hug. A little bit too tight for her ribs. "Finally."
His eyes were full of happiness as well. He finally saw his girl after a whole hell-long-of-a-year. And although her face had dirt on it, her hair was messy and greasy and her clothes were stained with blood, she still looked really beautiful. His Catherine.
Catherine returned the hug, trying to ignore the protest of her ribs. They stayed like so until she spoke again.
"Steve," The pain in her chest was already over unbearable. "My ribs."
"Oh. Sorry." He laughed and broke the hug.
They looked in each other's eyes. Then Steve kissed her. One of their most passionate kisses ever. A kiss that catched up for all those missed kisses during the past year. They broke it once they were out of breath.
"I love you, Cath." Steve whispered.
"I love you too."
But 'nothing good lasts long' they say. Gunshots in the distance got the reunited pair's attention. It was a really sweet moment but it had to end. They had to stop Hassan.
Steve passed a gun to Catherine, as they silently proceeded to the direction of the skirmish.
Soon they saw Osman lying on the floor in a puddle of blood and Danny looking extremely pissed staying next to his body.
"That's for hitting me. Oh, Catherine." He gave her a friendly hug, "I'm so glad that you are okay, you really scared us."
She smiled in response.
"Where is Amir?" Steve looked around and found no one else.
"He went after Hassan."
"Wait. Amir is..was here?" Catherine asked.
"Yeah he helped us find this hideout." Steve answered. "But Cath, I need to tell you something. About Najib."
"I know." Tears started falling down her cheeks again. "I know."
Steve hugged her again, this time careful with her injuries. It would be a hard time.
Meanwhile in Hawaii.
Charlie Fong was the man entrusted with the samples of the bombs. And in case the scenario from a few years ago, when Michael Noshimuri stabbed him, was about to repeat he had three bodyguards with him.
The results weren't really surprising having in mind everything that had happened the past week in Hawaii. Actually, it would have been more surprising if the samples didn't match.
Charlie picked up his phone and called Chin to tell him the news.
-H50-
Chin just finished his call with Charlie Fong. The results were expected, though they didn't really help. So it was Hassan. But why would he change tactics suddenly? Of course, there was always the possibility that someone made it look like it was Hassan but who would actually blow up the police station? That was way too bothersome.
Chin decided to leave his own thoughts for a moment and joined Kono near the smart table. She was looking through the video tapes from a security camera that had survived the blast. 24 hours before the explosion and there was still no trace of anyone suspicious. No masked men entering the building with a box in their hands.
"What do you think?" Kono asked her cousin.
"It was someone from the police."
Kono shook her head in approval.
"I'll see who was on a night shift before the explosion and interrogate him."
"Okay but don't go alone. I'll phone Danny and I'll come with you."
Back in Hassan's hideout.
The satellite phone rang and Danny picked it up.
"Chin?"
"Danny, what happened? Did you find Hassan or Catherine?"
"Well yes. We-"
Something in the distance exploded, then something closer to the hideout and then something even closer. The last thing Danny heard was Steve's shouting. Then the whole building collapsed with the three in it.
"Danny are you there? Danny, what happened? Danny?" Somehow the satellite phone survived the blast and Chin's worried voice echoed in the dusty ruins. "Danny?!"
-H50-
Amir followed Hassan all the way to a forest when he finally managed the corner him.
"That's it Hassan, where are my son and wife?"
"Oh so you are the father?" Hassan chuckled. He was quite amused from this whole situation, although the wound Catherine gave him was hurting like hell. "They are dead."
The hand that held Amir's gun started shaking. "You didn't!"
"Oh yes I did. And do you know what? In about 30 seconds my hideout will be leveled with the ground, along with your friends." Another chuckle.
"I don't believe you." Amir just couldn't comprehend it. He wouldn't believe Hassan until he saw a proof. And he did. A few kilometers away, in the direction of the hideout, appeared a huge fireball.
"See?" Hassan rose his eyebrows. He saw that Amir was ready to pull the trigger and changed his plan. "You see, you can probably still save them. Come on, go."
"You think I will fall for that?" Amir considered his offer but repressed himself on time.
"And if I tell you that your wife is not dead? Will that change your mind?"
"You just told me she is a moment ago."
"I lied."
"Why should I believe you?"
"Why should I lie to you?"
"You already did."
Hassan smiled. The man really was smart.
"3 kilometers south-east from your village. In a small warehouse." When he saw that Amir wasn't buying it, Hassan changed plan again. "See, I know that killing your innocent boy wasn't right. I have killed a lot of people in my life but they all deserved it. The fact that I used your son doesn't give me peace. Please, save your wife at least."
Amir looked at him for a second the nodded and turned around. He knew that Hassan wasn't telling the truth. He would just play with him. Amir's plan was to trick Hassan into thinking that he was leaving him escape. And once he thought that Amir would shoot him by surprise. But as he turned with his back to Hassan, in order to fulfill his plan, three bullets buried in his back and one in his head, killing him in an instant.
Hassan laughed hysterically as he approached the body. He dipped his finger into the blood on the ground and wrote a message to anyone that would eventually find the body. 'Omar Hassan is dead.'
Okay, maybe that wasn't the best romantic reunion possible but have in mind that they were in the middle of fighting. Well sort of :D Please leave a review to let me know what you think!
