There is something about the bond between partners, some kind of unspoken rule that says that they will always be there for the other. That they will be there for one another whenever they call. That's why when Danny got the call, the second one that he had received that stopped his breathing and wrapped an icy blanket of fear around his heart, Steve was by his side in an instant.

"Danny? Danny, what's wrong?" Steve asked, grasping Danny's shoulder as he looked straight ahead, his eyes unseeing as his thoughts went a million miles an hour.

"Daniel, it's Rachel. There was a break in at the house today. Grace and I are fine and the police just left, but I would really like it if you came over here. Grace is still pretty upset. Thanks, Danny."

Rachel's voice was worried and nervous, but he detected a hint of something else in there, something that he couldn't quiet put his finger on.

"Steve, I gotta go." Danny said, heading towards the doors, Steve still following in his wake.

Steve grabbed his arm again and spun him around, forcing him to look Steve in the eye. "Danno. What's wrong?"

Danny glanced around for a moment before finally looking at his friend, seeing the sincere worry in Steve's eyes. "Someone broke into their house. The police already left but I Grace is still pretty worked up. God, Steve. They were in the house and someone got past the security and broke in! They could've hurt Grace, Steven."

Steve let go of Danny's arm, his face mirroring the face that Danny's held. "Go, Danny. Make sure they're all right. If you need anything, Danny, call me."

Danny nodded and quickly walked to the door, leaving his friends watching him as he went to help a little girl that had worked her way into all of their hearts.

It didn't take Danny long to get to Rachel and Stan's house. The gate was open and if Danny wasn't so worried about his little girl, it might have sent alarm bells ringing through his mind. But as it was, no bells were ringing.

Pulling up in front of the house, he leaped out of his car and ran to the door, not bothering to knock and just grabbing the handle. He shoved the door open and ran inside. The sight that greeted him wasn't the sight that he was expecting.

Rachel had Grace clutched in her arms, bent over her and trying to protect her from whatever could be the danger. "Rachel?"

A loud bang came from behind him and he spun around, seeing a man standing beside the door, one hand on the door from closing it and a gun in the other.

A rage bubbled up inside Danny as he saw this man holding the mother of his child and his child at gunpoint. He straightened his shoulders and turned, going from Danno to Detective Williams, the man who had thrown countless people into prison and even killed a few, in an instant. "Who are you?"

The man smiled as he locked the door and moved away from it, never once taking his eyes off the cop. "No. I don't suppose that you would remember me. My name is Mitch, Detective, and you destroyed my life."

"How did I destroy your life?" Danny hoped that the psycho wouldn't notice that he was slowly moving to stand in front of Grace and Rachel.

Unfortunately, Mitch did notice. "Don't you dare! Get on your knees! NOW!" Danny hesitated just a fraction too long and Mitch pointed the gun towards Rachel and Grace, eliciting a small squeak from the little girl.

"Ok! Ok! Just . . . calm down." Danny said, slowly kneeling on the floor.

"Now put your hands behind your head." Danny obeyed instantly this time, knowing that he probably wouldn't get a second chance.

Mitch came forward and grabbed Danny's gun, tucking that in his belt, and his cuffs, securing one of those a little too tightly around one of Danny's wrists. He yanked on the collar of Danny's shirt and pulled him up, taking him to one of the pillars in the house, a few feet away from the door, but in between it and the living room, and pulled his arms behind his back, securing the other cuff too tightly around his other wrist and behind his back.

Danny grimace as his arms were forcefully yanked behind his back and the cuffs pinched his skin. "You didn't answer my question. How did I destroy your life?"

A blow was delivered to the side of Danny's face, resulting in blood to trickle down from the corner of his mouth, where a split lip had appeared. "It wasn't just you, I suppose," Mitch said, coming out from around the Detective. "It was also that stupid partner of yours. He had a hand in it, too."

Danny began going through his mind, searching for a case that both he and Steve had worked on where there was someone named Mitch. He didn't have a last name so that didn't help to narrow his search. But he had a much more pressing problem ahead of him besides finding out just who this son of a bitch was, and that was getting his daughter out of danger. "Ok, so you have what you want, and that's me. Now let my family go."

Mitch shoved the gun up into Danny's face, pressing the barrel against his cheek. "You're in the wrong situation to be making demands, pig."

Danny looked nervously at the gun and then over at his family. He was about to come back with some snappy remark when he was interrupted by a ringing in his pocket.

Mitch looked at him and then drew his gun away from Danny's face, instead reaching down into his pocket, drawing out the intruding device. The name on the screen said 'Steve' and Mitch looked at the captive he held. "Is this the stupid partner?"

Danny nodded, and thought of a ploy. "Yes and the stupid partner will become very curious and intrusive if I don't answer it."

Mitch looked down at the phone and pressed "Talk", holding the phone up against Danny's ear so that he could speak. "Hi, Steve." Danny said, hoping that even the greeting he put forth would alert his partner to something.

Steve was a little surprised by the greeting, seeing how upset Danny had been when he left. "Hey, Danny. Is everything ok?"

"Sure, sure everything's fine. Hey, Steve?" Danny said, looking at the ground.

That's when Steve knew something was wrong. "Yeah, Danny . . . Everything isn't alright, is it."

Danny glanced at his captor. "You know how you said if there was anything I ever needed?"

That's when Mitch pulled the phone away and threw it to the side, not noticing that it didn't break and he didn't press end. Thankfully, Steve held his tongue when he heard the thud and was able to still hear the things that happened on the other end.

There was another thud followed by a groan and a whimper, probably from Grace Steve figured, as Mitch's voice growled. "Do you want me to kill you, because I will. You are the reason that my brother, Jason, is dead, and later, if not sooner, you're going to join him."

Chin looked at Steve as a look of worry crossed his features. "Steve. What's happening?"

Steve pulled the phone away from his ear and looked down at it before looking at Chin and Kono. "I think Danny's being held hostage."
