Brians POV-
This is probably one of the worse situations we've been in, I thought to myself as I crouched down behind the car in the warehouse, Mia, Dom and the crew around in the shadows kneeling in the grease stained garage beside me.
"We've gotta move now, we're surrounded," Dom whispered, looking at the crew.
"On my mark we split, Brian you take Mia, Tej you and roman take the north corner window exit, I'm heading out the front door" Dom looked at us sternly, I knew what that meant, the front door was walking straight into the ambush.
He cocked his pistol and ran in a crouched position to the front of the car, keeping as close to the vehicle as he could without being to seen.
"NOW!" He bellowed and we broke off like a pack scrambling for the closest exit we could. Tej and Rome made straight for the window and we headed for the back.
I looked back as 3 Military dressed personal came through the front with semi autos, Aiming straight at him, he had nothing but a hand gun, he would never make it more then a few feet. I thought quick on my feet.
"HEY" I called out, pushing Mia behind me, covering her from any fire or range.
They only looked at us for a split second but that's all it took to distract them long enough for him, it was time for us to go.
I turned around just in time to hear Mia cry out as we made it to the back door in a few short steps, only to feel the butt of a what I assumed to be a gun, pistol whip me in the head.
I staggered slightly, clutching at my face, seeing stars momentarily but feeling another hand squeezed mine I knew I couldn't let anything happen to Mia.
There was 1 of them now coming in hot, right on us pointing us with the same automatics the other soldiers had been carrying.
I stared down the barrel of the guns, slowly raising my hands to my head, Mia following quickly.
"Back up. Now" The military gunman commanded, flicking his gun in the direction of Dom.
We'd heard the commotion and scuffle behind us but it had all stopped after a few moments, I took a second to glance over my shoulder to see the 3 SAS soldiers, corner Dom straight in with us.
There was a call over the military radio, asking the location, one of the soldiers, a girl, I was surprised, she couldn't have been more then 19 responded.
"Yeah we have their location, Warehouse, Charlie 4 , Holding location, prisoners are the Torretto siblings and O'connor. Move in" There was buzz and static over the radio but no response.
"Copy that Charlie 4?" Static and buzz again, she looked over to what looked to be the commanding officer.
"Try again Harper" He commanded down to the girl, she looked at him with unease, I smiled to myself a slight glimmer of hope sparked in me, they hadn't caught Tej or Rome from what we could tell, we were going to make it out of this.
"Charlie 4, Holding location, We have the confirmed prisoners, I repeat we have the confirmed prisoners, please respond," she waited and the radio again was just a buzz of static.
She turned her stare back to the captain, He looked over his shoulder at one of the other soldiers, If he made one of them go and recon outside it would leave the prisoners one for one for us.
He looked at his team and us, It could be done, they had fire power we didn't.
"Alright Tatum, go check the scene, report back to me as soon as there's a sign of trouble" the solider he had called Tatum nodded quickly ducking out the door.
The remaining 3 soldiers surrounded us and I was all too aware we would be evenly matched if we played it right, Dom would take on the two to his left and I could take the girl and I had no doubt Dom was thinking the same thing as I watched him size them up.
They watched us like a hawk never moving a muscle, all you could hear was our ragged breathing and the hum of the night outside the warehouse.
A minute latter static broke through the radio again long enough for the girl to glance sideways at her captain, this was our chance, he caught site of my movement and momentarily forgot about Dom, He launched a step in my direction enough for him to get in Dom's line of fire to catch him off guard and throw him off balance, he quickly head butted him nailing him to the ground, swinging the gun up out of the sergeants falling arm he aimed it at the second solider and took him down quickly.
The girl was a harder situation, she swiped right with the gun realizing I was to close to shoot, i tackled her from the torso to the ground but she caught me in the ribs and we tumbled.
I rolled to the side away from her and launched back on my feet, it had given her enough time to roll away and to her feet, except now I had her gun.
Dom had knocked her captain out cold on the ground, I had shifted my glance for a second but it had been quick enough for her to pull another gun from behind her back and face it at me, Dom pulled Mia to him, moving her out of the line of fire and all attention turned to the girl.
"Look I don't want to hurt you but if I need to I will," I spoke in a calm, manner of fact tone, a heavy feeling weighing on my chest at what I was about to do.
She looked at me for a second and something in her eyes changed, She held the gun up aimed straight at my head but it shook, she faltered.
"Please" I spoke again making it clear I was going to do it, not wanting to shoot her.
"BRIAN, we don't have time," Dom bellowed holding Mia behind him in a protective stance, The girl swiveled her gun at Dom to which Dom held up the gun he'd grabbed off the fallen sergeant.
"Look kid, you don't want to do this" Dom looked at her with a stance that said if she didn't let this go he was going to put a hole in her like he'd done the other solider.
"No need, Brian, I got this" Rome said from the open doorway behind the girl, She froze as she heard the voice behind her and the click of a cocking gun.
She didn't move an inch, I had no doubt if we moved then she would shoot us where we stood and I don't think she was too concerned with the consequences because she was well aware of how dire her situation was.
"Dom" I looked at him and he kept his eyes firm on the girl, She looked at us both but kept the gun aimed firmly on Dom and behind him Mia.
"Come on kid, put the gun down, you have us packing heat on you, right now wouldn't be the smartest time to play tough" Dom growled again.
"Why? Because you'll shoot me?" She looked at us with a smirk, there wasn't a hint of fear in her "See the thing is, I don't think you will shoot me, know why Torretto?" She looked around at us again "From what I've read, none of you kill kids and I've read every damn file there is on you guys" her smile grew, that threw me off only slightly, I looked at Dom but his concentration was kept on her.
"I know who you are, Where you've been, What your favorite color is, Hell I could even probably tell you what you ate for breakfast" She slowly stepped to the side away from roman and Tej, inching towards on of the old cars hanging rusty and suspended.
"Your not guna shoot me, especially seeing as I'm the only one who knows what really happened to your dad O'connor," She said completely serious, I froze for a second, what did this kid have anything to do with me and how did she know this type of information.
"Brian" Dom said warningly edge to his voice.
"You know I thought you were smarter than that Brian" She smirked "You haven't even looked at my badge name" she said with a bite of anger.
That completely threw me off guard, I glanced down quickly. O'connor. Her badge said O'connor.
"Who the hell are you" I poked nervously, Finger not so firmly on the trigger.
"Brian we've got to go," Tej spoke up from behind her.
"ENOUGH" Dom bellowed to the left of me "You have 3 seconds and I pull this trigger" He bellowed at the girl, She didn't hesitate at that, she took one last look at Dom and made a run at me head first, I caught her body flying at me gun raised just in time to hear the shot, I squeezed my eyes shut.
There was a scurry of movement and the group raced at us, dragging me to my feet and away from the girl, I realized after a moment there wasn't any pain. I hadn't been shot.
She rolled away from us and looked up, clutching her hand to her stomach, I realized, she'd been shot, but I hadn't shot her.
"Brian" Mia screamed at me as Dom pulled me out of the state and towards the back exit of the warehouse, I hesitated for only a moment seeing her face.
I looked back at her to see her grin at me and as her chest rose to breathe, she started a fit of coughing, blood began to seep all over her chest.
She was cut off from view by Dom, he practically dragged me out the door and into the night, I snapped out of it, I couldn't think about that right now, right now we needed to run.
_
3 days later we were holed up in a small building off the coast of Rio barely keeping it together, All that went through my head over and over was the girl, every detail I could remember about her, Her badge had said O'connor. Trying to remember anything familiar about her was impossible, she wasn't familiar, but there was something about her I just couldn't shake.
Dom came out onto the terrace, interrupting my thoughts and internal struggle, I looked at him solemnly as he handed me a beer.
"Let it go Brian, it didn't mean anything, just a tactic to throw you off" He said gruffly leaning against one of the old columns "You should know this, you used to use the same tactics"
"I cant this time man, I just cant shake it, that kid, She has something to do with all of this… there's got to be some connection" I took a large gulp of the crisp cold beverage and savored the taste as I strained again to think of the details, Dom sighed seeing his words right now were going to change nothing.
"Well I'll give you this, she's got balls, She definitely reminds me of someone" He smirked at me and then frowned mid thought.
"She's also on the wrong side Brian, She is nothing to you now, no matter what happens, she's trained to hunt and kill, not to play nice" He glanced at me again trying to work out what was going on.
"Seriously, you and I have Mia to worry about, we need her safe and to get out of here in one piece" He was right at that, I knew he was, Mia was my one utmost priority above the rest.
"Yeah your right," I sighed looking out over the star studded horizon.
"Do you think we're ever going to make it free of this?" I gazed dazed at the dancing stars in the dark sky, Dom followed my glance out across the little broken homes and hotels of the hill and to the night above.
"We have to, if it's the last thing we do" he said looking back at a sleeping Mia on the couch "for her"
"Brian, wake up!" A nudge from Mia, I rolled over with a groan
"Brian wake up, Tej found something on the solider girl" I was completely awake now and alert, I rolled off the floor so quick I almost fell, catching myself I quickly followed Mia out into the main floor area of the apartment, Tej was sitting behind a desk of computers and Rome and Dom were leaning over his shoulder looking at the screens.
They looked up at me as soon as I was through the door way, I studied their expressions, They were both frowning in deep thought.
"What've you got for me Tej?" I said jogging around to the back of the computers.
Roman and Dom cleared away for me and started to pace around the floor.
"So I ran some scans through military databases and did a bit of hacking in, This is the solider from the other night that had the O'connor badge, Although I couldn't find too much, something did come up" He pointed to the screen.
There was her file and photo starring back at us even younger in the photo then she had been when we'd seen her last.
She was 142cms, Black hair, blue eyes with a sprinkle of freckles across her face, she had a hard look to her face and there was something in her eyes that said it all.
Her birth records were
Name- Athena Rose Harper
Born October 27th 1995.
Mother – Allesandra Kate Harper
Father-
Address – 24 Thomas street, Miami.
No father, that was interesting.
"Why was her name O'connor on her badge if her last name is Harper" I asked Tej, he smiled.
"Well this is where it gets really interesting, I pulled up her mothers history and anyone she was related to, She was married once, before becoming a harper, but all records leading to that were hard to come across, like they'd been buried" He kept searching and I looked at Mia, she gave my arm a gentle squeeze.
"I also looked into your dads history, I found a record that said your father knew the soldiers mom Brian," He looked at me for a moment before sighing.
"Says here that your father also didn't just have one child, He had two" He swiveled the laptop up into my view and pointed to a record.
"Father of 2, one Brian O'connor and one Caucasian girl. No details on the girl" I read aloud. What. What did this even mean.
"I also dug deep enough to find this, a police record" Tej said pointing to one of the other monitors, He was pointing at a car theft charge, one female and one male arrested at the scene.
He clicked the photos in the file and a woman with black hair and blue eyes appeared, I didn't have to be a genius to see the similarities in the mother and daughter.
It was the soldiers mother. The photo next to it however was my father, from the vague memory I had of him I knew this was him, my gut told me it was.
"This is the only records that I could find of the two together or anything of the other" Tej looked up at me "Brian…" He started looking at me.
"What can you get me on her mother, maybe I can figure this mess out if I ever get back to California" I asked quickly.
"Brian…" Tej said softly "the girls mum is dead, she week after your dad did….In pretty similar circumstances to" I looked at him skeptically.
"Do you have the death records there?" Tej shook his head.
"I searched every database I could find for them and nothing, its as if they've been wiped off the map" I frowned at the computer screen.
"Brian…" Dom started "Its just a weird coincidence that this girl happens to be tied into your past, She probably knew that using your last name on her uniform would spark something, get a reaction from you" He looked at me gruffly, I shook my head.
"No Dom, something about this just doesn't feel right, I know there's more to this then what we're seeing here" I sighed walking over to peer out one of the old cracked glass windows, the street below was bustling with activity.
Roman was the first one to break the tension in the room
"Vince will be here soon guys we gotta get packing" Rome looked more so at me then anyone else.
"He's right, lets get moving" Dom said finalizing any further discussion on the matter.
15 minutes later and Vince came barreling through the stairwell door right onto the floor.
"We gotta go guys their hot on our trail" He said out of breathe, in that moment everyone began to grab what was only necessary and make for the old elevator shaft exit, As Dom hit the button it felt like an eternity until it reached the top.
As the bell dinged and the doors open we were met with guns and lots of them pointed at our face.
"Freeze right there, Torretto you and your gang are under arrest" A massively built tan solider with a mean looking expression stood in our closest means of escape, I looked at Dom as he stared the big guy down.
My attention quickly switched to the soldiers in his team, I scanned them to see the sergeant from the other night, none of the other soldiers were the same from the other night though.
I caught a flicker of movement from the back, she took a step forward and made it to the front of the group, a large automatic focused right on my chest and she slowly smiled, there she was with that same knowing smile of hers.
