Brian O'Conner walked into a garage that had a huge sign that said Tej's garage, and walked through to the back before stepping back out into the bright Miami sunlight. He smiled at a few people he noticed walking around before heading over towards a guy and two girls. The guy was yelling encouragements to a few people that were out on jet skis and seemed to be racing. The girls Brian noticed seemed to be working on a project together. The Asian looking one had a large sketch pad across her lap and she was intently staring at it as if trying to see if he drawing needed anything else. The slightly smaller girl with white blond haired one had a laptop propped up against her knees and was typing intently, her eyes flicking back and forth across the screen.
"Tej, Suki, and Rayn what a surprise." he said grinning. Tej and Suki looked up at Brian and smiled. Rayn's eyes stayed glued to her computer for a minute before looking up and grinning at Brian as well.
"Hey Bullitt what's up?" she said slightly shaking. It was normal for her to be shaking or bouncing depending on if she had taken her medication that day or not.
"Not much, so girls what's the latest?" he asked.
Suki picked up her sketchpad and flipped it around so he could see what she was working on. " It's a work in progress." she said smirking.
Rayn glanced over at Suki's drawing, nodding she carefully turned her laptop around and showing Brian a 3-D version of Suki's design on a car that both of them chose for that particular car, a Nissan Skyline. Rayn smiled slightly at the look of awe on his face. She heard him mumble something about being able to give Jesse a run for his money and blushed while looking down. She knew Jesse was some sort of technological genius when it came to the stuff she was just now learning how to do from what Brian had said about him and to hear him say something like that was the best compliment she could get.
"Hey Rayn shouldn't you be heading off to school right about now?" Tej asked looking at his watch. The three adults chuckled at the teen as she went visibly pale under her tanned skin. They watched as she shoved her laptop into her army green messenger bag and slipped her flip-flops on before running out through the garage and down the street to where her school was sighing as she got there on time.
* Tej's Garage*
Brian and Tej watched Rayn run out of the garage with small smiles on there faces. "Hey Tej, what was she doing here this early anyways?" Brian asked curiously.
"She figured out that program you just saw, last night and she wanted to show it to Suki so they could both see how the design would look on your car." Tej replied still looking at the place where Rayn had disappeared.
Brian just nodded before sitting down in the now empty chair beside Suki and watched the races . A few hours later, Jimmy, one of Tej's mechanics, walked in looking slightly troubled.
"Hey Brian, there's some people here to see you," he said accepting the beer Tej handed him. Brian just nodded and stood up walking into the garage. Tej looked at Jimmy who just shrugged.
Brian looked around the garage, stopping short when he noticed who was waiting for him.
"Dom?" he said in disbelief. He looked at the rest of the team sighing as he realized they were all there and looking well.
Dom just nodded steeping forward. "Yeah, Busta do you know how long we've been looking for you? Since Jesse and Vince got outta the hospital." he said in his deep voice. "I wanted to…"
He got cut off by a girl that looked no older than Jesse yelling for Brian.
"Bri… oh there you are. Oh your um busy. Ill ask you later then." she said nervously smiling and slowly backing away.
"Wait Ray what did you need?" Brian asked softly so as not to scare the already nervous girl. He smiled as she walked back up to the group. "Guys this is Rayn one of the best graphics designers in Miami. Rayn this is Dominic Torretto, his sister Mia, Dom's girl Letty Rodriguez, Vince Cortes, Leon del Ross, and Jesse Stone, the tech genius I was telling you about."
The group smiled at the young girl who just couldn't seem to stand still much like they're friend and the youngest of the group.
