*Interview Room, Los Angeles, California*
Two men were in the room, one standing and one sitting. The one standing was Agent Bilkins of the FBI. The guy sitting had a shaved head and sideburns and was there when O'Connor was undercover. It had been almost three years since Brian O'Connor abandoned the force and left. The guy in the chair was the last person who might know where everyone, with the exception of O'Connor. Bilkins already knew where O'connor was. O'Connor didn't seem like the type to be in Miami.
They caught the guy sitting on a street racing raid downtown. It was a lucky break really. Some junkie wanted off the hook and said there was racing down by the industrial park. This guy drove a black 350z which got cornered in an alley while he tried to escape. The two men stared at each other for about ten minutes. Then the silence was broken, Bilkins was the first to speak, "We've spent a lot of time looking for you, Adam. It's been awhile since Toretto bounced off the grid. You have anything to add to that because what you have may help you. If you know what I mean?"
The one sitting thought about what Bilkins had said and then he decided to reply, "Ok, I got it. Yeah, I knew Torretto and the gang, I also knew Brian. I was there when Brian first hit the scene all the way to Race Wars. When he ditched in the night I followed him and Mia when he followed Dom. I saw them trying to take that truck and I saw Brian save Vince's life. I saw him let Dom go and then I drove off. Are you happy now."
Bilkins decided to throw the kid a curveball, "Did you know Brian was an undercover cop"
A smile appeared on Adam's face, "Actually, I did know."
Bilkins was facing the mirror when Adam replied. He spun around at his answer, "How?"
"By luck really, about a year before all this happened I was busted for speeding by an officer Brian O'Connor. He looked a lot like Brian Spillner, the street racer. Connecting the dots honestly, are we done? "
"For now," Bilkins stood there staring at the guy in the chair. He could have this guy thrown in jail in a heartbeat, but he decided against it. He would follow him, track his car he would lead them to Torreto whether he wanted to or not, "Alright Adam, you're free to go."
"Thank you," Adam stood up and turned to leave.
"Crash, don't leave town, we're not done here," Bilkins warned the racer.
"Whatever," Adam opened the door and walked to the front entrance. His brand new black 350z sat right in front of the doors. He had just gotten it two months ago and it looked like he had to get another car. Adam knew what was going to happen. He got in and started the car up. Adam spoke to his car, "I'm sorry but I'm gonna have to get rid of you, they probably have you wired with GPS and I can't have them following me so lets go." Revving the engine, the 350z blazed out of the FBI parking lot. The car got on the nearest highway heading east.
*Jay's Car Place, Houston Texas*
The 350z made a hard turn off the street in to the first car lot he saw with potential. Adam got out of the car and went up to the office. He knocked on the door and young guy about the same age as him walked out. "What can I do for you," he young guy asked.
"I want to sell my car," Adam told the guy.
"Cool, I'm Jay I own the place, where's your car?"
Adam pointed to his 350z, "There."
"You want to sell that! It's brand new, has custom candy black paint and sweet ass Enkei rims and with what you've done to the outside, I'm guessing 300hp." The young man was freaking out at why anyone would want to sell the 350z.
"400hp actually, I'm looking for something different and from the street your lot has some nice choices." Adam had scanned the lot from the road. It had Hondas, Nissans, and Mazdas and a variety of other cars. Adam threw out a suggestion to the guy, "How about 20,000 for the 350z."
"Absolutely, I'll bring out the papers and the cash." The guy knew this was a steal and so did Adam. A wired car was worthless to Adam. He scanned the lot again looking for specifics. The young man brought out the papers and the money five minutes later. Adam signed the papers and handed over the keys. "What kind of car are you looking for?"
"Something with potential, most likely Japanese," Adam explained.
"Sure," the guy replied, "We have a lot of choices. We have some civics and some 240sx's. Oh we just got this in." The guy walked over to a red R33 skyline, "This is probably the best car we have right now." Adam wasn't interested in the car. He never really liked Skyline especially R33's. He looked over the lot and found it. Adam jogged over to it dodging the rest of the cars,
"This is what I want," Adam had his mind made up.
The guy caught up to Adam, "You want this RX-7. There's a newer one on the other side of the lot. This is a '93 Efini FD3S RX-7 series 5. We have a '02 model over here, it's much better"
"I want this one, not the '02," Adam opened up the passenger side door. Sweet, Adam thought to himself. It was a right hand drive. He shut the door and popped open the hood. "Ah the rotary engine, beautiful isn't it?"
"I guess so," he replied.
"How much is it," Adam asked while he was checking the rest of the car out. White paint job with a few scratches, stock rims, torn seats, not to mention a rather large dent on the left side door.. This stuff could be fixed way easy.
The guy was in shock at how someone would turn down an R33 Skyline and a '02 RX-7 for a beat up '93 Efini RX-7. "Five grand," he answered.
"Done," Adam signed the papers and gave the guy the five grand. He took the bag that had the rest of the money in it and got in his new car. He put the keys in the ignition and the rotary engine of the FD roared to life. Adam peeled off the lot in a new car and a new life.
*Jansyn's Garage and Cosmetic Shop, Baton Rouge, Louisiana*
Adam pulled up to an intersection next to a convertible Corvette with a guy and two girls. The guy in the Corvette revved the engine, "Hey dude how are you supposed to get any ass in that thing," the girls in the back of his car giggled.
"I may not be able to get any ass in this car but I can still whoop your ass in it," Adam replied with a smile.
"Oh yeah, on green I'm gonna leave your ass in my dust," and with that the guy revved his engine even higher. The stoplight turned green and they were off. They were neck and neck and the Corvette was getting pissed at how a piece of crap car could stand up to him. The Corvette went wide and then tried to slam into the FD. Adam saw this coming a mile a way. He slammed on the brakes and watched as the Corvette went straight into a fire hydrant. Adam laughed and revved his engine than was gone before they could even blink.
Adam still couldn't help but think that guy was right. His RX-7 looked like hell and he had to fix that. He pulled into a garage and switched of the engine. He got out and walked to the door. He opened the door and rang the bell on the desk. A young girl, maybe 24, in coveralls appeared in front of him, "What can I do for you?"
"I need you to fix that," pointing to his FD sitting in the driveway, "This thing needs a complete overhaul: new paint, rims, interior, gauges, nitrous and turbo. Oh, and I need to have this done ASAP."
The girl stared at him, "Ok, this is gonna cost a pretty penny though, roughly twelve thousand.
Adam reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a stack of bills, "Here's thirteen. Is that good?"
Her eyes widened, "Hell yeah that's good. I'm Jansyn by the way come back in a week and I'll have this done."
"Good," Adam turned and walked out. He would need to get a hotel luckily there was a Motel 6 next door.

*A Week Later*
The whole week had been a waiting game for Adam. He went to the garage daily and got the same answer from Jansyn everyday, "It's not done yet come back later."
Today was the day though, it had been one week. Adam checked out of his hotel room and walked over to the garage. He walked into the office and saw Jansyn talking on the phone. When Adam came near she hung up the phone. Adam gave a winning smile, "It's been a week baby, tell me my cars ready."
Jansyn was a little shock at Adam's flirty side. When he came in the first time he was rough and in a way shy. This was new but hey he was cute. It must be that boys and their cars thing. "Right this way baby," Jansyn said and she turned and went to the back behind the garage, "Here it is."
Adam stared at the car that was in front of him. There was no way it was his. The dents and scratches were gone along with that ugly ass olive green paint. Instead the new paint was candy black like his old 350z, but it had flame vinyls that started white and changed to blue. Those stock rims had been replace with some Momo rims which Adam had never seen before. He could only speak in single syllable words, "Oh my God!"
Jansyn looked proudly at her creation, "I know huh. You haven't even seen the engine yet." Adam was still in complete shock. Jansyn went over and popped the hood. "I added a NOS nitrous system and a HKS turbo system as well. This baby's probably pushing 400hp at least with everything I've done to her."
Adam turned and stared at Jansyn, "I think I love you," and with that Adam walked over and wrapped his arms around Jansyn.

*Ten Minutes Later*
Jansyn finally got enough air to speak, "Ok, you can let go now."
Adam let Jansyn down, "Oh sorry, my bad. I just can't believe what you've done to the car and to think I only got this car less than three weeks ago. Thank you."
"You're very welcome," Jansyn stared at Adam for a second then asked him a question, "It's kind of obvious what you're gonna do with the car but I wanted to ask where are you gonna go?"
Adam calmed down a little bit and pondered the question, "I guess I don't know. Maybe I'll keep heading east. I hear New York has a pretty fly racing scene." Unbelievable, he didn't even know where he was gonna go. He knew he was runnig low on cash and he needed to race soon.
Jansyn decided to help Adam out a little bit, "I here Miami has a sweet scene to, plus there's plenty of girlies you can chase after. My cousin races down there. He keeps on asking me to come down."
Adam considered his options, "Alright we're going to Miami."
Jansyn was shocked beyond anything that had happened so far, "What do you mean we're going to Miami?"
Adam smiled, "I mean you and I are going to Miami. So get packed we're leaving today."
"How can you ask me to go to Miami with you. One, we're not even dating. Two, I barely know you. Three, I have a job." Jansyn put her hand on her hip when she was done as if a final statement she wasn't going.
Adam walked over and stood in front of her, "Alright, I'll tell you why you're coming with me. One, you've been working on my car for a week, we've basically had sex already. Two, it's a long drive to Miami. Three, you own the place. You can take time off whenever."
Jansyn stared at Adam and surprisingly admitted defeat, "What the hell let's go."
