Chapter Text
Danny, Chin and Kono arrived at the address of the warehouse within an hour, they were met there by HPD and SWAT.
āDanny, weāve done a preliminary scope of the propertyā Duke announced as he greeted the three members of the 5-0 Task force.
āMy men have counted a dozen men inside and outside the building, including Wo Fat, heās been sighted in the main storeroom of the warehouseā Duke finished carefully studying the expressions on their faces.
āGood, now we know what where up against. Chin, you and Kono will take a few HPD and SWAT officers and go around the back of the compound, donāt engage till everyoneās in position, got it?ā Danny had already let Duke know the plan of attack on the way over.
āGot it Brahā Chin confirmed Dannyās orders.
āOkay folks, we have two hostages in the center of the building, try not to hit them when we go in. And we have Capture orders on Wo Fat, but do not engage in hand to hand with the target, he is highly trained and will happily resort to playing dirtyā once Danny finished his briefing the two teams split up, Danny, Duke and the remaining officers went around the front of the building while the cousins and the other officers went around the back.
āEveryone in position?ā Danny asked waiting as patiently as possible for a response.
āIn position, waiting for Go commandā Chin answered after a few seconds.
āOkay letās go, try keep gunfire and noise to a minimum and hold onto our element of surprise as long as possibleā¦ Go, Go, Goā Danny commanded.
As both teams slowly crept forward toward the warehouse, taking out a few guards quickly and quietly, unfortunately the element of surprise didnāt last overly long as a wondering guard spotted the cousins and their men, opening fire on them and alerting the other armed men around the compound to the unwanted company.
Soon they were in an all-out fire fight. āDamn there goes the easy planā Danny thought. Fortunately, the fire fight only lasted a few minutes and they soon had the building cleared.
āBuildings secure, Iām heading for the main storeroomā Danny announced over their coms.
āBe careful Brah, we havenāt found Wo Fat yet, he could still be hereā Kono replied.
It took Danny a minute to find the door to the main storeroom, but when he stepped through the door his heart skipped a beat and sank into his stomach and he felt the blood drain from his face. He was greeted by the vision of his best friends girlfriend strapped to a chair in the middle of the room, she was covered in blood, barely conscious but still struggling to get out of her restraints.
Danny looked just passed her to seeā¦. Steve, hanging by his wrists from a hook in the room, gashes covered his chest and abdomen, his face swollen, wrists raw and bleeding from the restraints cutting into his skinā¦ but the most disturbing thing of all was the knife lodged in his abdomen and the astonishing amount of blood dripping down his cargo pants and pooling on the floor at his feet.
āSTEVEā¦ Oh. My. God. What the hell happened?ā Danny yelled as he ran across the room towards his fading partner, holstering his weapon.
āSteveā¦ come onā¦ stay awakeā¦ open your eyes!ā Danny was panicked as he arrived in front of his horribly beaten partner.
āDānnoā was all Steve could day before his eyes closed and he passed out from blood loss.
Danny immediately got to work untangling Steve from the hook holding him up when Chin and Kono came into the room, Chin immediately rushed over to help Danny lower Steveās now limp almost lifeless body to the ground.
āWhat happened?... Danny?ā Chin asked as they worked to slow the bleeding from the knife wound with Steveās discarded shirt.
āIā¦ Ummā¦ I donāt know, Wo Fat must have done this before he ran offā¦ā Dannyās voice was shaky and coated with fear and panic. āThe sick bastard is using them as a distraction!ā
āParamedics are on the wayā Kono shouted from behind them.
Kono had gone straight to tending to Siobhan as Danny and her cousin focused on Steve.
āSiobhanā¦ Hey, can you hear me? Come on open your eyesā Kono said with a soothing reassuring voice.
Just as Kono spoke she saw Siobhan open her eyes, very slowly blinking furiously, her faced etched with pain as she started to move and sit more upright. Kono started removing the straps that held Siobhan in place in the chair.
āHeyā¦ Youāre okayā¦ can you walk?ā Kono asked trying to keep Siobhanās focus on herself rather than on Steve or Danny and Chin, the tactic didnāt work very well though.
āYeah Iām okayā¦. Steveā¦ Is heā¦ Is he okay?ā Siobhan asked through gasping ragged breaths while starting to stand to her feet, the effort put into standing didnāt leave enough energy to actually walk the problem not being helped by the beating her legs had taken from Wo Fat and the brass knuckles, as she stepped forward, she collapsed to her knees, crying out in pain.
āHeyā¦ Hey, Itās okayā¦ Just lie stillā¦ Paramedics are almost hereā Kono reassured as she caught Siobhan and slowed her fall laying her on her back trying to keep her gaze away from Steveās direction.
As soon as the ambulances arrived the were directed to work on Steve first.
āKim hand me the heavy gauze, get the oxygen mask on and insert an IV. Iāve got maybe four or five broken ribs but doesnāt seem as though theyāve caused any internal damage and heās lost a lot of blood, BPās low, heart rates high and erraticā the first paramedic stated while packing the knife wound with gauze to stop the bleeding, followed by adding gauze to his chest securing it in place with a wraparound bandage. By the time they were done Steveās whole torso had been covered in bandages as they prepped to put him on the gurney and in the ambulance.
While one pair of paramedics tended to Steve the other pair headed toward Siobhan.
āJane get an oxygen mask on, prep an IV and start fluids immediately. BPās low, hear rates elevated and slightly erratic, start packing gauze to the wounds we need to minimize further blood loss and try prevent her going into shock and keep pressure on that left shoulder, looks like it may have nicked an arteryā the older female paramedic ordered.
Within 15 minutes both patients had been prepped for transport and were headed to Tripler Medical Hospital.
-----------------------------------5-0------------------------------------
Danny, Kono and Chin sat in the emergency waiting room of Tripler as they had done too many times before, sitting in the uncomfortable plastic chairs huddled together in the corner.
They had been sitting around for about 4 hours.
āWhere the hell is the doctor, itās been forever, whatās taking so long?ā Danny asked impatiently as he stood and started pacing again like he had done periodically for the last four hours.
āJust try relax, theyāre gonna be out to tell us something soon Iām sure of itā Kono stated trying to get Danny to calm down.
āWould you pleaseā¦ for the love of god, sit downā¦ your making me motion sick with all your pacingā¦ not to mention your gonna wear a hole in the floorā Chin added looking annoyed at the sight of the Blonde Detective as he started pacingā¦ Again.
āRELAXā¦ how can I relax? My partner, my best friend and the love of his life are in there fighting for their lives and no oneā¦ not a single person in this whole damn hospital has said a damn word about their conditions!!ā Danny snapped back at the cousins.
āFamilies of Steve McGarrett and Siobhan Walters?ā a pair of doctors stood in the doorway of the emergency room.
Immediately all three jumped to their feet. āThatās usā Danny exclaimed.
āIām Steveās partner, Danny Williams, this is Kono Kalakaua and Chin Ho Kelly, we work with Steve and Siobhanā Danny said with some relief in his voice.
āPlease, follow us itās best of we speak in privateā the older male doctor said as he motioned for the three of them to follow him to an empty room. Dannyās anxiety spiked through the roof at three word āspeak in privateā, that cannot be good.
āIām Doctor Naomi Jacobs I am looking after Captain Walters, and this is my colleague Doctor James Bride he is Commander McGarretts surgeon and doctor while heās hereā Dr. Jacobs started.
āHow are they Doc?ā Kono asked with slight worry in her voice.
āI wonāt lie itās been a bit touch and go when Commander McGarrett arrived but we got him into surgery and repaired the damage the knife had caused, he has twelve broken ribs one of which punctured the left lung, we have repaired the lung and heās breathing on his own at the moment, he had lost a lot of blood when he arrived, but weāve got him on blood transfusions, fluids and antibiotics to prevent any further infections, heās also got about a dozen fairly shallow lacerations on the front of his torso along with deep lacerations on his wrists and ankles form what I can assume are from restraints used to hold him, his left eye is currently severely swollen as a result of the broken eye socket he incurred along with a mild concussion, but heās in recovery at the moment, once heās settled we will transfer him into Captain Walterās adjoining room under governorās ordersā Dr. Bride filled them in on Steveās condition.
āWhat about Siobhan?ā Chin asked.
āThankfully her injuries were not as severe as Commander McGarretts, but she still suffered from moderate blood loss from a combination of the gashes on her torso and the bullet wound in her left shoulder, she also had eight broken ribs none of which caused any internal complications, now the bullet itself has been removed but it did break the collar bone and was lodged in the shoulder blade, but it missed all major arteries, thankfully. Captain Walters is suffering from the same mild concussion and deep lacerations to her wrists and ankles as Commander McGarrettā Dr. Jacobs added.
āSo, will they both make a full recovery?ā Danny finally asked.
āYes, we expect them to both make full recoveries in time. For now, they are both under heavy sedation after surgery, but when theyāre both settled in you can go see themā Dr. Jacobs answered as though she already knew Dannyās questions.
āThank youā all three said in unison.
āBut I must warn you they wonāt be awake for a good few hours yet and even when they do wake from the sedativeās they wonāt be very coherentā Dr. Bride warned as the three remaining members of the governorās task force left the room.
