Steve Mcgarrett

Steve and Danny stop moving stop breathing when they heard his voice when he said their name. "B-Buck?" Steve asks voice shaky Danny just looks at the phone shocked. "This can't be happening this has to be a joke t-there no way." Danny whispers not loud enough for Buck to here though it feels like some type of cruel joke he's been gone 20 month. "Y-Yeah."

"What base are you at what hospital?" Steve asks standing up grabbing his shirt along with a pair of jeans putting them on quicker than he can even catch up with. "I-I'm not." His voice sounds guilty and he sounds so scared and hurt. Confused Steve asks what he means as Danny sits there heart racing. "I...Sonny's team found me two months ago I requested them not to tell you I'm sorry just was hoping you had moved on and that you got over me. I...was I'm sorry Steve I'm sorry Danno." Hearing Buck start crying that breaks Danny out of his shock and istantly trying to sooth his son. 

"Hey no you have nothing to be sorry about son where are you at?" Danny asks getting out of the bed and throwing his shirt and jeans on as well heart racing the thing he has prayed for, for the last year and a half has finally happened. "Uh I w-went to Anna's, and I know that not fair to you it's just she makes me f-feel safe I don't know she m-made me call Danno I l-love you." Anna takes the phone from Buck who is starting to have a panic attack. "Hey he's here but I think I'm gonna let you guys go he's starting to have a panic attack." She says Steve and Danny understand Steve who calls Chin.

"Hey Chin I need you or Kono to come watch the Kid's for a week maybe more." Steve says packing his bag while Danny books their plane tickets for them for three hours out. "Is everything ok?"

"Buck's in Texas he was found and he's in Texas me and Danny really need to get there." Chin chokes on his spit and you can hear him get out of bed. "Uh yeah I can watch the kids of course are you serious how do they know it's Buck is he alive?" He asks and Steve lets out a soft cry of relief finally breathing for the first time in over a year.

"Because we spoke to him, he apparently was found two months ago by accident in the best way possible. I don't want to bring Grace or Charlie because god knows what condition he's in and he's obviously struggling." Danny speaks up when he see's Grace standing there having a panic attack. 

"What are you guys talking about you spoke to him Buck is alive?" Grace breathing is fast she just turned 16 last week and Buck went missing when she was fourteen. "Yes your brother's alive kid but you have to stay here because he's not gonna be there mentally all the way ok and we don't want to stress him to much ok but I promise as soon as he says he's up for seeing you I will tell you." Danny says through the tears that stream down his face as she looks at the two men shocked not wanting to believe it. 

"Buck's alive I thought you said he was dead." Grace says raising her voice as Danny tries to calm her down to get her to breath. "No I said it was likely when you asked Grace but he was found ok so me and Steve are going to Texas for a little bit and Uncle Chin is gonna watch you ok."

Annabella Hart

She gets Buck to sleep in their guest room he so freaking skinny it makes her sick to her stomach knowing he was probably starved for those 18 months knowing his stomach won't be able to handle anything heavy she starts making chicken vegetable soup. She texts her mom who is also fond of Buck telling her everything and asking if she could take her three children for a few days.

Everything was fine until she starts hearing Buck yelling in his sleep she knows what to do since Freddie had night terrors as well she turned on the light and just gently said Buck's name knowing better than to touch him in this state.
