Chapter 144

God. She's going to be so mad when she finds out what you've done.

An unnecessary dig and if Steve could see clearly, he would have seen Wo Fat flinch. He hadn't even said her name, but just the mention of her, the thought of what she would do when she found out what was happening in the basement of that laundromat was enough to unnerve him for a second. But only a second.

It was regrettable of course, he had promised he wouldn't do this, but he was running out of time, options and patience. This was all he had left and Steven had such a terrible habit of being stubborn.

"Good. You're up," he said to him rolling up the sleeves of his silk blue shirt carefully. "Let's begin."

Beginning, of course, with waterboarding. An easy and effective measure of torture. Steven struggled, as one did, his toes curling, his finger nails digging into the wood of the chair, he coughed and sputtered and effectively choked and Wo Fat turned a deaf ear and a blind eye to it.

His stomach wasn't in it anymore and he blamed Rowan. Stupid Rowan and her stupid feelings. She'd be disappointed when she found out and he wouldn't be able to blame anyone but himself, but he was going to try to blame everyone else. Starting with, of course, why did Steven have to make this so difficult?

They finished with the current bucket they were on and he watched as Steve threw up whatever water he could and struggled to breathe. He fought the urge to pat his back and utter: there, there, like he had on the beach that one day the man had a panic attack about losing Rowan for the millionth time. Considering how often the man chased that girl away, Wo would have thought that he'd be used to the feeling.

After a few moments of coughing and wheezing, Steve had the nerve to look the man in the eye and say: "You're never gonna break me."

Well fuck. Come on. Couldn't Steve tell that his heart wasn't in this whole torture business? Clearly, Eris was more interested in it than he was. He just wanted Steve to cooperate, just once in his life. But Wo Fat knew the only way to get Steve's implicit and immediate cooperation was to actually put Rowan in this chair. He'd just have to flick water in her direction as a precursor to actually waterboarding her and Steve would break in an instant. Problem was, he'd never be able to put Rowan in that chair, she'd turn those big blue eyes up at him, ask him what he was doing and then he'd be the one breaking down. Quite pathetically.

Wo Fat calmly walked away though he was nothing but calm. He busied himself with getting more water because that was easier then sitting down in front of Steve and leveling with him like he wanted to. If he thought Steve would listen to reason, if he thought Steve would take into consideration cooperating simply for Rowan's sake, he would have done it. But Steve didn't care about Rowan the way Wo Fat did, he was selfish and controlling when it came to the woman they shared. And Wo Fat knew that if McGarrett realized he could use Rowan against his nemesis he would.

"Behavioral engineering works, Steve," he warned his step-brother instead. He turned on the hose to fill up the bucket again. "You know that. It just takes time."

He caught a glimpse of the hatred in Steve's eyes as she slapped the towel back over his face and he almost cringed. It almost stopped him from pouring the next bucket of ice cold water onto him. Almost. Because those were the eyes of a man who wasn't going to forgive him.

After this… well… if Rowan wanted to continue dating Steven, Wo Fat was going to have to lay low… and hope that she got into some major trouble that Steve would need his help to rescue her from before he'd be allowed back into her life.

He wasn't sure he wanted to go through all of that. He liked Rowan. He didn't trust Steven to protect her like he could.

"Now, tell me, where's my father."

"I don't know."

He was lying of course. Well… he might be telling the truth, Rowan had said… had said that he would do this and Steve wouldn't have the information. But she wasn't right about everything… okay so maybe she might be right about a lot of things… but Wo Fat needed to be sure that he didn't know.

"You expect me to believe that?"

"No."

Ohh, so smart. Not smart enough to lock down Rowan when he had the chance though.

"But it's the truth."

Wo Fat didn't even have to ask Eris to put the towel back to his face. She just did it. Wo Fat poured more water into him, counted to ten very, very slowly and then stopped, letting the poor man breathe again.

His gasps were getting more painful to hear. With every second this continued Wo Fat knew he was pushing Rowan farther and farther away but he couldn't bring himself to stop. He needed to know where his father was. He needed to know, more than he needed his sister.

"All you have to do is tell me what I want to know, then your suffering can end."

He panted a bit before looking up to Wo Fat and carefully saying: "If you're gonna kill me, just do it."

But Wo Fat couldn't do that. Torture was forgivable, flat out kill him and Rowan would never speak to him again. Not unless he just took her of the island right afterward and told her Steve went back to Catherine. He could just never let her come back to Hawaii after that.

"Steve, if I wanted to kill you, I would have done it long ago," he told him. "Think about it."

"Yeah… okay… You wanna know where your father is, yeah?" he said finally seeing the light. Ha, see, Rowan was wrong Steve did know. "Ask Doris. I know about her trips to Colorado to come see you. I know about… I know about us being…"

Oh, hell he knew that? Had Rowan told him? Or had Doris?

"You should have asked her when you had the chance."

"I asked our mother. She said she didn't know," he said. "So, who told you? Doris or… or…"

Steve shook his head. "I wouldn't let her… she tried… I wouldn't… Doris did, parts of it. I don't know it all, I don't how it happened…"

"Enough of this," Eris said. "Why are we wasting our time with him? Just grab the girlfriend. She's the quickest way to bring him to his knees."

Panic lit up Steve face just as it had lit up Wo Fat's. No, Rowan was not coming down here, and no one was going to grab her. And though Wo Fat knew this clearly Steven did not.

"No. Not Rowan. She's not a part of this. She doesn't know," Steve suddenly shouted. He turned to Wo Fat who knew exactly what he was thinking. "Okay… maybe… but psychic visions aren't proof!"

This was getting out of hand. Grabbing the needle from her he stabbed Steven in the neck before he could say anything else damning about Rowan Pierce. The drugs coursed through him and Steve raged, he thrashed and struggled, the fight in him renewed at the thought of Rowan being put in his place, of him being forced to watch it happen to her. But as the drugs took him over and his head bowed to his chest he kept repeating the same thing over and over until he was finally down for the count.

Not my Rowan.

H5O-H5O-H5O-H5O

Wo Fat had been ignoring her calls. Of course he would. Because if he had done what she thought he had done, he wouldn't be able to admit it to her. He'd avoid her until he was finished, but Steven didn't have the information he was fishing for, not yet, not unless he killed Wo Fat. Only then he'd get to meet Wo Fat's father.

That's what the dreams had been about. Because both of them didn't come out of that basement alive. It was one or the other. And it almost always ended with Steve putting a bullet between Wo Fat's eyes.

But Rowan didn't want it to come to that. She didn't want Wo Fat to die, he was a little misguided but he didn't deserve to die. At least by Steve's hands… she was flat out going to kill him with her own bare hands when she found the little shit. Still she knew she needed to get there before Steve managed to escape on his own and before Five-0 showed up which meant she couldn't tell them what she knew. Which honestly wasn't much.

She had started by going to all of his safe houses, you know, once it was clear that he wasn't going to pick up the phone. But he wasn't there. She called Kong, he hadn't seen or heard from him, she went to Kong's warehouse, but Wo wasn't there either and that's when she discovered that his phone was offline entirely.

But she got something when she was there. A little bit of a flash. A slight bit of memory.

Dry cleaners and a man named Anthony Shu.

And somehow… she wasn't sure how… but somehow that was all connected to Adam. So she had called him, called him and asked him to look into the name. She hadn't told him about Steve and Wo Fat, she just said she was looking for a certain dry cleaner that he owned. Adam said he'd get back to her, and an hour later, he had.

The phone rang and Rowan had lunged for it, lunged like her life depended on it, but it wasn't Wo Fat finally calling her back. It was Adam.

"Hey I looked into that name like you asked me to. It looks like you were right, Anthony Shu bought a chain of dry cleaners from one of our subsidiaries."

"Yes, yes, I'm always right, can you tell me where the only one left is, please?"

"You know the more I watch and hear you do it the cooler it is?" Adam said and Rowan tried to bite back the anger and worry all while remembering that she couldn't tell Adam what was happening.

"Yes, yes, my visions are the bomb. Address please?"

"Well the only one left is on Makaloa. It's a twelve hundred square foot facility…"

"OKAY THANKS!" she shouted and then hung up the phone. She knew where she was going now, all that mattered was getting there before everyone else did, before Wo Fat did the unforgivable, and before Steven put her brother in the ground.

H5O-H5O-H5O-H5O

When Steve came to again he was pressed up into a corner. He was cold and shaking, his body burned and ached and all he wanted was Rowan. He wanted to press her up to him, he wanted her cool hands to soothe the burning aches in his chest and flowing through his veins. He wanted to kiss her, he wanted to hold her, he wanted to go home.

The projector was whirling again. The news reel about his mother's fake accident. He barely paid any attention to it. Wo Fat was just taunting him now. The lights flashed on and for a moment he was blinded, but he could hear, quite well, the hissing of the gas coming through the vents again.

Steve was on his feet, though it burned him to do so, and rushing towards it, peeling off the white wife-beater he had been wearing and pressing it to the grates trying to keep the gas from getting in.

But it didn't work and once again he was out, and once again he was dreaming.

DS-DS-DS-DS

He had asked Williams if he was okay to stop off somewhere while they were tracking down leads on Wo Fat. Williams had been kind enough to oblige, which had Steve rushing up his dad's front steps desperate to get inside.

He knocked on the door until someone answered, that someone being Mary. He pulled his kid sister into a tight hug and smiled at her despite all the worry he felt.

"Hey Mary, is Rowan here?" he asked and she nodded. She already knew all about Steven's one-track mind when it came to his wife.

"Yeah, I think she went to go nap for a bit cause she wasn't feeling well, but she also might be with Dad, he seems to have taken a real shine to her."

Oh! that was good. Steve nodded. "Hey… uh… I just interrogated, Hesse, he uh… said something interesting to me…"

"Oh yeah, like what?"

"That he tried to grab Rowan in Vic," he said. "But that isn't true. Because you were with Rowan in Vic… and you would have told me if something happened… I mean… and if you didn't… if Trevor didn't… the Navy would have…"

"I think your CO's exact words were: McGarrett can never know."

"Wait… so… she did get grabbed?"

"Oh yeah, we all were," Mary said. "Me, her and Trevor. They showed up at her door, told her that you had been wounded in action and that your CO was agreeing to take her there. And then they put us in an SUV and somewhere along the way Rowan and Trevor realized what was happening, did some weird shit with their eyes and attacked the guys holding us. It was super cool. She has some sick driving moves."

Super cool? Sick driving moves? Hesse really had grabbed Rowan?

That explained the tip Williams had mentioned. Rowan must have realized that if Hesse couldn't get her and Mary he'd go for someone else. Logically that meant his dad, he was the only one left. Which meant, when Rowan was safe she had gotten word to the HPD that John McGarrett was in danger, before Steve had called. His dad was alive because Rowan had sent word.

But that didn't change the fact that Hesse had almost succeeded in grabbing Rowan. If he had succeeded it would have been a completely different situation, because if it had been Rowan on the phone that morning, Steve would have done everything Victor asked to get her back. And even though it hadn't happened, just thinking about it had him panicking. He needed her. Now.

"ROWAN!" Steve shouted and from the kitchen he heard her call his name back. She had a big smile on her face as she approached him ready to pull him into a hug, but Steve couldn't get distracted by that now.

"Okay, hold on," he said deflecting her hug and causing her smile to crack a bit. "So, Hesse told me something interesting and Mary just confirmed that you…"

"MARY?!" Rowan suddenly shouted. "You told him I was pregnant! You promise to let me tell him!"

Steve froze as he stared at her. Weight gain and mood swings, throwing up and feeling sickish, holy shit… it all made sense now.

Mary poked her head into the kitchen and said: "Noooo... I told him we got grabbed in Victoria."

Rowan took that in, blinked her eyes and said: "Oh. Yeah… that… uh… well… I didn't tell you about that because I didn't want to worry you."

Yeah, Steve was going to come back to the Hesse thing later. "I'm sorry. You're pregnant?"

"No?"

"Rowan!" Steve and Mary shouted at the same time and she cringed, his brave strong Rowan actually cringed, like she was afraid of him. Holy shit.

"Okay! Okay! Fine. Yes, I may be… uh… a little pregnant right now…"

"A little?" he echoed. How was someone only a little pregnant? "What? How? Ro, I haven't been home."

"Are you accusing me of cheating on you?" Rowan thundered. "Really?! That's what you're going to say to me? Really? You wanna go there Steven James McGarrett, when you were getting jumped by girls all the time!"

"It was one girl. Lynn and I were in a near death situation… she was around me all the time as my handler and she got a little mixed up. That is all. And you know that kiss sent me straight back to you, so why are you complaining?" he cried. When she just glared at him, he sighed and continued. "No, I am not accusing you… I just… I just don't understand how this happened when we were so careful?"

"Really? We've been careful? You do remember that charity benefit thing I did where me and Alex came to Afghanistan and we were singing you were there…" "Yes, Rowan I remember." "Kay, well remember when you I told you that I had a cold, and I was taking cold medicine…" "Oh my god." "And you never have condoms on you and we didn't have time to go to my bunk to get mine because you didn't want to wait and I figured it was one time what's the worst that could happen and well… uh… here we are and I can't believe you made me tell that story in front of your father."

Okay so that explained the how… but…

"Rowan that was four… almost five months ago…" "Yeah, I'm just about four months along right now." "And how long have you known?"

"Well… I mean… honestly? Uh… pretty much right away cause my morning sickness hit hard and it hit early," she admitted and his heart practically clenched but he couldn't understand how he had not known this… unless his C.O.s made her keep it from him because they knew he'd find out and then BAM that's him AWOL again. He'd've just quit. Immediately.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

Suddenly there were tears in her eyes. "Because I wanted to tell you in person. I wanted you to hug me and kiss me and tell me that everything was going to be okay."

"Okay but aren't you hap…"

"NO! I'm not happy! I'm fucking terrified!" Rowan shouted. "You're never home and I don't want to do this by myself!"

"I… I… but I am home now… you saw me this morning, why didn't you say anything then?"

"You were supposed to be home days ago. You were released from active duty last week and instead of coming home you went off to chase Hesse. And I didn't want to tell you in front of your father, who had no idea you married me in the first place let alone that I existed or was a part of your life in a goddamn police precinct when all you cared about was questioning Hesse. Now here we are, and these stupid hormones are making me cry and this wasn't how I wanted to tell you."

She whirled away from him and disappeared. Steve found himself sitting at the table. He braced his arm along the edge and for a minute Mary's voice became nothing but static and he was suddenly gripping the table very tightly as If he couldn't help it. As if something was coursing under his skin and making him clench.

He tried to brush it off, he tried to stay where he could still see Rowan, walking out towards the waves. God he loved her. He loved her so much, she was married to him and she was going to have his baby and he didn't want to let that go.

But the static came back and then she was gone.

RR-RR-RR-RR

He was shirtless.

He was soaking wet.

They were electrocuting him.

"My father. Where is he?"

The woman threw another bucket of water on him. If he ever got out of those cuffs, he was gonna shove that bucket up her ass.

"I already told you, I don't know that."

There was a beat of silence between him and Wo Fat before the other man said: "Very well."

He nodded to the woman he was stabbed again. Everything went fuzzy around the edges. It was so hard to hold onto everything, to hold onto reality. The fuzziness turned into strings. All these different colored strings.

Strings of black and yellow splitting off of Wo Fat and joining to him. Strings of red binding up his chest, practically filling the room, edges of them probing the walls and windows and doors as if trying to sniff something out. The woman with the syringe had nothing but one short black string waving in the wind.

"I can't tell you what… what I don't know. What I don't know."

DS-DS-DS-DS

For a minute he was on the docks in a gun fight with Wo Fat. They were duking out, both trying to come up on top. But Steve was stronger, faster, and smarter.

He pretended to be downed by a shot, let Wo Fat come to stand on top of him to be sure that he was down for the count and then shot him five times to the chest.

As he died gasping for air Steve stood over him shouting the same thing. "Why did you try to kill my father? What did he ever do to you?"

But Wo Fat couldn't answer because he was dead and all Steve could think was that Rowan was going to be so mad when she found out. Which made absolutely no sense, because Rowan didn't know this man.

Then in a flash he was back in the HPD HQ back in his dress blues and heading for Captain Kelly again.

"Commander!" Williams cried and Steve turned towards him. "I'm not sure if you know this but uh… we're in Hawaii and we don't usually wear a uniform unless we're going to a ceremony."

Steve nodded. "Yeah well… I uh… I'm heading over to see my girl and she loves me in my dress blues. I'mma try to… convince her of a few things and this will help."

"No girl can refuse a man in uniform huh?" Williams asked with wagging eyes and Steve nodded again. "Well I was thinking about how well we did together, and uh… you know… if you ever change your mind about the Navy that you might be interested in a career in law enforcement."

Steve thought that over. He thought about Rowan who wanted him home and wondered if she'd be okay with him trading in the Navy for this. Probably not. "Well… maybe…" he said instead cause it was the most polite option.

"Alright, you think about it. You ever get homesick, I'll put in a word with Captain Kelly and maybe we'll put you to work. What do you think?"

"Tell you what. I could get used to being chauffeured around all day, that's for sure."

"That's right."

"See you around, Danny."

"Hey, call me Danno," he said as he shook Steve's hand and Steve could only nod and wonder why that sentence hadn't felt right.

But as he was walking away the static came back and just like that he wasn't in happy sunny Hawaii, he was back in that goddamn basement.

RR-RR-RR-RR-H5O-H5O-H5O-H5O

They had run out of options. The detail Danny had called to sit on Rowan, had lost her almost immediately. How? They didn't know. She was in a purple GTO, how could a car like that go missing? So, when they came to the conclusion that the only person, who had the resources and the motive to do something like this, was Wo Fat, they all assumed that Rowan was purposely missing and avoiding them because she was aware of the situation and her brother being behind it. In the absence of Rowan, after hours of Steve missing and not turning up, they figured her involved somehow or trying to deal with the situation and having a problem Maybe Wo Fat had finally snapped and he had taken Rowan and Steve. Either way, they had no choice but to call in someone from that world that could help them figure out where Wo Fat might have taken Steve.

So Kono went off to fetch him, since he had been with his family after he had helped them with the sting operation that morning that Steve had missed. But when Sang Min got into the office and looked at the picture of Wo Fat on the screen and he just frowned.

"What's he doing up there?'

"We believe that Wo Fat abducted McGarrett this morning."

"Nu-uh, I doubt it," he said with a quick shake of his mulleted head.

"Oh? And why is that?" Grover asked.

"Well… cause of X-men."

"The comic book?" Grover asked dryly.

"No, he means Rowan," Kono translated and Sang Min nodded. "Yeah dat's the girl, you know lightning bolts and flashy powers? Tells the future. Her eyes go white like that chick from x-men."

They all took that in and then exchanged glances with Chin who had been there when Sang Min had witnessed the travelling, the only person other then Steve who had. Chin blinked his eyes.

"Yeah, can we get back to that later?" he asked.

Danny nodded and put them back on track. "Okay… and why do you think that huh? I mean, I get that he likes Rowan and all that, but the beef with Steve predates Wo Fat's weird obsession with her."

"I get what'chu saying but I tink you got it all wrong," Sang Min said. "There are tree tings everyone knows about x-men…" "Her name is Rowan…" "Whatever. One. Wo Fat cares more about her dan his money and his empire. Which is fuckin big considerin' dat was all he ever cared about before. Dey say Gabriel Waincroft caught a beating so bad he had to be sent to solitary for protectin… simply for lookin' at her the wrong way."

Not true, he did much more than that, but they let him continue believing that because the truth could get her arrested.

"Two. Everyone knows she's wit McGarrett… is dat shit official do? Cause like… we got some major bets inside about if dey are or not and I could win some major dough if…" "Can you stay on topic, please?" Chin snapped and he nodded. "Fine, everyone knows she's wit McGarrett, so messing wit her means either you get her crazy ass brother, or dat crazy ass haole. And Tirdly, and I bet you guys don't know this, but getting one of her jobs is like a fucking treasure trove. And she's is constantly hiring people for shit. She's also got a shorter fuse dan Fat and McGarrett combined and she's all about dat no mercy. Dey say she ordered a whole faction of the NLM dead… and deir families."

Well the NLM thing was new, but that no mercy, yeah that was straight up the Ice Queen.

"So yeah. I don't tink he'd grab McGarrett cause Fat wouldn't want to upset her."

"I don't think he's factoring her into his decision-making paradigm," Danny snapped but Sang Min merely shrugged.

"Actually, from what we hear, yeah… he kinda does now."

When everyone glared at him, he sucked his teeth while he thought and then stared into each of their faces carefully before asking: "What you tink you know where he is?"

"Naw, you're too low on the food chain to be even on his radar," Chin said and Sang Min shook his head at him.

"Kick a man when he's down, eh?"

"Look, associates, we need the names of the people who enough resources to help Wo Fat pull this off."

Sang Min thought it over and then said: "Sometimes, when he's doing business in the US, he uses a different name. Anthony Shu…"

They did a quick cursory search and pulled up a file with barely anything attached to it, no picture, barely any assets. A man that invested with Adam's father. They didn't have to say anything Kono was already moving.

Kono pulled out her phone and dialed Adam's number. "Hey, do you know someone named Anthony Shu?" she asked the second he picked up.

"Yea… actually… this is really weird, Rowan asked about him earlier today."

"Rowan asked about him?"

Everyone's eyes turned to Kono. Had Rowan not known that Anthony Shu was one of Wo fat's aliases? Well, she knew the name enough to ask Adam about it.

"Yeah she was looking for the address to a dry-cleaning company. A company of his, it was a subsidiary of mine…" he said but Kono cut him off.

"When did you give her the address?"

"I unno, uh, maybe a half hour ago? Kono… what's going on, Rowan sounded weird and now you're sounding weird…"

"I promise I'll brief you when I can," she said quickly. "Can you give me the address?"

Kono got the address from him and then quickly hung up the phone. "I got it but we gotta go fast, Rowan already knows."

And just like they were all suiting up to save Steve from Rowan and her crazy fucking brother.

H5O-H5O-H5O-H5O

Steve just slumped in his chair. Everything hurt, every inch of him, every bit of him. He wouldn't be able to take much more of this. He couldn't breathe, it was so hard to breathe. God. Why didn't this man get it?

"The Navy's taught you well."

Steve looked up to him so past done. "I don't care what she thinks. I'm going to kill you," he snapped and Wo Fat almost smiled at him. The fucking bastard. "And then I'm gonna find your father and I'm gonna kill him just for having you."

"Then you're going to have to kill your mother too."

God fucking damn it. With this again? Why because she liked him best? Yeah, Steve got that already. Everyone preferred Wo Fat to him. Or at least, everyone he loved did.

"What are you talking about?"

"Your mother is more responsible for who I am today."

"Stop talking in circles and just tell me what happened!" Steve shouted at him and was rewarded with the cattle prod to the chest.

When he was done, he turned away from Steve who had slumped so hard that time his chair had wobbled. He wasn't cemented to the ground, that… that was good… he could use that to his advantage. Wo Fat put the cattle prod down, picked up a different bucket, upended it and then sat down in front of him like this was fucking story time.

"You know nothing about the real Doris McGarrett. Do you?" he asked. Well no fucking shit. Fucking Rowan knew more than he did. That was what he had been trying to tell him.

"I know that she was assigned to kill your father," Steve told him. "But instead your mother died in that op. How does that lead to whatever this is?"

"Yes. And she never forgave herself for murdering an innocent woman who had just become a new mother. That pain and anguish caused her to do something quite remarkable. She took in that child and raised it as her own for several years. Until her superiors discovered this and forced her… they forced her to abandon that chid."

Wow. Doris McGarrett abandoning children long before she did it to Steve and Mary. God fucking damn it, Steve hated it when Rowan was right.

"You see… Doris McGarrett was my mother too," he said. Yes, Steve had gotten that part. "If Doris knew where my father was, she would've told me. But with your persistence, and your… girlfriend's intuition, I can't help but believe you know where your government is holding him."

"I don't. And neither does she. She's not dreaming right anymore."

"Yes, I believe she mentioned that," he said. Great they… they were talking? Did she know about this? Did she know that he was going to do this to him? He didn't want to believe it, he didn't want to believe that she would let this be done to him, but he didn't know what to believe anymore. "And that all may be true. But I need to be convinced."

Wo Fat got up and walked away from him and as he did, Steve kept calling out to him. "I'm telling you the truth. I don't know where your father is."

Wo Fat merely nodded and then left the room. Steve looked around he needed to get out of this goddamn chair, he needed to do something before the girl stuck him with those stupid drugs again.

And then someone started wailing on the door.
