Disclaimer: I don't own anything to do with TFATF. I also have nothing to my name. So don't sue, there's no point.
A/N: I realise it is nigh on six years since this film was released. However, I like the film and fancied writing my take on what happened after.
"Letty, babe, we need to get you to a hospital." Leon urged, as his passenger slowly drifted. It was as if she had put on a brave face whilst Dom had been in the car, and now that he had left with Mia, she no longer had to act. She was still defiant though.
"No, I am not going anywhere without Dom. He'll be back soon. We can sort it then."
The black Honda pulled into the driveway of his small house. The car would have been recognised at a thousand paces, but it was the only place that he knew would be relatively safe for them. He got out of the car, and rushed round. Trying to stand, the pain in her chest grew more intense.
"Come on you. Lets get you inside." Letty placed her arm around him. She flinched as he cautiously lifted her from the car and carried her into his house.
Compared to the Torettos, his house was a shack. But then, he was rarely there anyway. He placed Letty gently down upon the sofa. Various magazines were strewn across the floor. Apart from them though, it looked like someone had merely left it one day and never returned to clear it out properly. There was a small television in the corner, the dust on it about two inches thick. A second sofa was placed under the window. It was vastly different to the Torettos and she could see why Leon didn't spend much time here.
"You kept this quiet." She remarked as he came back into the room. Leon was carrying a glass of water, some kind of dressing and painkillers.
"Didn't see the point. Its only a base really, you know a place to put my head when I get sick of you lot." Letty let out a small, almost pitiful, laugh. The pain in her chest was not subsiding. She knew there was something wrong, but she didn't dare go to the hospital, "Dom knows about it. He had to help me clear out my mom's things. They got too much to be around. Constant reminder, I guess."
"When my mom died, I got left with the house. But by that time, I had pretty moved in with you lot. I kept it because it was easiest. Plus, I figured one day I would do it up. Guess that is going to have to stay on the back burner for the time being. You all right?"
"Yeah, just perfect." Leon wiped away the blood from her face. He could hear her struggling for every breath she took. The worry translated on to his face.
"I'll be fine. Don't worry. Save that for Vince. How are we going to get him back?" He shook his head before looking at the ground. How had his life gone from a relative calm to this? His family had been torn apart. No one knew where Jesse had vanished to, Vince was in hospital, Dom and Mia were planning their escape, and Letty looked as if she could pass off as a corpse in some bad horror movie.
"Letty! Baby, wake up." He hadn't notice her breathing become more strained, the colour draining from her face, "Don't you dare do this to me. Don't die on me." He ran over to the phone, and punched in 911. He ran back over to his friend. "Yeah, I need an ambulance quick. Its my friend, she's hurt…"
Dom pulled up behind the white Jetta. Mia was still cradling Jesse in her arms.
"Mia, get in." He hollered. She turned to look at her brother.
"What the fuck did you do, Dom? Where's Brian? What happened to your head?" He rushed to his sister's side, pulled Jesse into his arms and carried him into the house.
Lying him down on the sofa, he placed a blanket over his friend. Before covering his face, he kissed the top of his head.
"Sorry, bro. Things shouldn't have ended like this." Standing up, Dom grabbed his jacket from the chair opposite. He quickly ran over to the cupboard, grabbed a small box and rushed outside. Still crumpled on the floor, Mia looked inconsolable, "Mi, we have to go. Jesse is gone and I refuse to lose the rest of my family." She pulled herself off the floor and walked over to the Supra.
After a short drive, they had arrived near Leon's shack. Paramedics were standing in front of the house. Pulling over to the kerb, Dom assessed the scene in front of him. He could make out Leon standing on his porch, his face telling him everything he needed to know. He couldn't see Letty anywhere.
"I can't just leave her." He said, not knowing if it was to himself or out loud. Did it matter?
"Then don't. You said yourself, you can't lose the rest of your family." Mia responded. Her eyes were blood shot, she looked exhausted. Dom started the engine again, and pulled closer to the house. Leon spotted them, they weren't hard to miss in Brian's bright orange Supra. He jumped down off the porch and rushed to them
"Bro, its Letty. She didn't want me to, but she would have died. I'm sorry. Its just the medics, no cops. I'll let you know where we are, just disappear for a while."
"No, I can't lose her." Dom yelled as he got out of the car. He walked over to the back of the truck. He caught a glimpse of the gurney. Lying on it, so deathly pale it pained him, was his girl, "Letty!"
