Author's Note-In the background it just tells you how Lily met the gang and all is it. Also I couldn't think of a better title and I was listening to a song called do or die. You have any better ideas please tell me.

ALSO: This is important if you don't like my story then don't read it! I don't need your mean and negative reviews! There is such a thing as constructive criticism and then there is being plain rude if you don't like something make sure when you leave a post it's constructive criticism and not you just bitching about my story. I didn't force you to read it. But if there is something wrong with it I would like to know so I can edit it and improve as a writer.

Chapter One- Tuna Boy

Brain O'Connor is an undercover cop so he's now known as Brain E. Spilner. He didn't come up with the name the damn system did.

Brian walked into Toretto's grocery shop the same place he had been going to for about the last 3 weeks. It was small and plain a few rows of food a couple of large coolers along the back wall and a long 'L' shaped counter in the far right corner the store was connected to an auto shop. Behind the counter where two girls one had lightly tanned skin with dark brown hair that went almost down to her elbows and brown eyes she was hunched over the far side of the counter reading a magazine Brian had come to learn her name was Mia, and the other with pale white skin, medium colored brown hair that went past her shoulders and brown eyes, she was reading a book while sitting on a stool behind the counter in the center facing the entrance was Lily. In the back there was a man wearing a sleeveless grease and oil stained t-shirt, who was looking at paperwork.

Lily looked up from her book and raised her eyebrow. "Mia tuna boy is back." She said in a slightly teasing yet playful tone. Brain just smiled at her as he took a seat on the end of the counter.

"Tuna on white. No crust, right?" the lightly tanned girl asked while standing up.

"I don't know. How is it?" Brain asked with s smirk.

"Ha here we go again." Lily said and closed her book.

"Every day for the last three weeks you've been coming in here and you've been asking how the tuna is. Now it was crappy yesterday, it was crappy the day before. And guess what? It hasn't changed." Mia said in an exasperated voice.

"Mmm…I'll have the tuna." Brain said with a smile after a moment of pretending to think.

"No crust?" Lily asked him as she started to prepare his sandwich

"No crust." He replied. Lily just shook her head and with a small smile set the plate down in front of Brian.

"Here ya go one crappy tasting tuna sandwich on white, no crust."

"Thank you." Brain said while now shaking his head. After he took a few bites and had swallowed he looked at Lily who was now in her previous spot.

"Watcha reading?" he asked, beginning there usual conversation they had at least once every 4 or 5 days.

"The Sun Also Rises by the ever painful Ernst Hemingway. This guy goes on and on and I want to just call it quits, this book is putting me to sleep." Lily said closing the book and glaring at it, remembering her old life for a moment then pushed the thought away.

Brian laughed a little at her. "Hemingway is not that bad." Brain said.

"Whatever…"

"Why don't you just stop reading it?" Brian asked

"Because I am reading it for one of my classes down at the community college."

"Ha sucker I don't have to read it." Mia said smiling and walking over to the two of them.

"That's because I am majoring in journalism and writing unlike you. You miss smarty pants who is going to med school." Lily said.

"Alright so I don't have to read boring shit like that but I have to read tons of crap too." Mia said and laughed at her best friend.

Brain smiled at them and they each continued doing there own thing Lily returning to reading, Brian eating and Mia was counting the money in the till.

About less than 3 minutes they all looked up towards the entrance because they heard the low roar of engines coming around the corner and stopping out front of the shop. 4 cars pulled up a Latina girl stepped out of the first one, a magenta colored Nissan 240SX (S14 Silvia) 2 door coupe, then a yellow 1995 Nissan Skyline R33-GT-R, a blue 1995-1999 Nissan Maxima and finally a white 1995 Volkswagen Jetta (A3 Type H1) with blue jagged lines going across the doors starting from the headlights

"Talk to me Jesse. This ain't workin', brother." A slightly tanned, guy with brown spiked hair and a little scruffy stubble on his chin said while stepping out of the blue car

"It's your fuel map. It's got a nasty hole. That's why you're unloading in third." A guy with light colored skin in a white sleeveless shirt with a multicolored knit cap and a pair of shades on said while stepping of out the white Jetta named Jesse said.

"Told ya it was third Vince" The guy with dark brown hair and brown eyes said cockily as he got out of the yellow car and stood next to the blue Nissan Maxima that now had it's hood up and the four of them standing by it.

"Shut up Leon!" Vince snapped the guy from the blue car said.

"I'll lengthen the injector pulse another millisec and just tune the NOS timer, you'll run nines." The guy named Jesse said while pointing to something under the hood for the rest of them to see. When Vince grabbed Jesse's face and turned it towards the other side of the street to see a familiar red truck parked there. "Huh?"

"What's up with this fool? What is he, sandwich crazy?" An angered Vince said.

"No V! He ain't here for the food, dog." The guy who had been in the yellow car named Leon said.

"Chill out, bro. He's just slingin' parts for Harry, man." Letty said pushing up her shades to the bridge of her nose as they started for the entrance of the store.

"I know what he's slingin'." Vince mumbled childish.

"He's tryin' to get in Mia and Lils's pants, dog." Leon interjected as they all walked into the store.

"What's up, guys? Letty?" Lily said as the gang walked in.

"How ya doing, Mia? What's up Lils?" Jesse said walking in heading over to the display of sunglasses.

"Hey!" Leon said walking to the display that Jesse was standing at.

"How ya livin', girls?" Letty said as she walked past them and towards the office where the bald guy who wasn't old just shaved his hair off sat in the back with his back turned towards them. "Hey, Dom. You want something to drink?"

The guy named Dom, short for Dominic Toretto just lifted his own can of beer up to show that he already had some. Letty rolled her eyes and got herself one.

Meanwhile Vince had gone and sat a couple of stools away from Brian who hadn't acknowledged the new arrivals.

"Ah, he's beautiful." Jesse mumbled to Leon as they tried on various pairs of sunglasses while referring to Brain.

"I like his haircut." Leon said

Vince had just slid a small bowl that had sugar packets in it towards Brian. Lily sighed and closed her book.

"Hey Vince...Vince!" Lily said and waved her hand in front of his face as he was

staring down Brian

"What?" Vince asked turning towards Lily.

"Down boy play nice." Lily said giving him a warning look.

"Can I get you anything?" Mia asked Vince also sensing Vince was looking to cause some trouble.

"Nah." Vince said to Mia. "Babe, you looking good." He added.

Brian stood up and put a couple bucks on the counter, "Well, thanks a lot, Lily, Mia.

See you too tomorrow." He said and started walking out of the shop.

"Ok later." Lily said and Mia just nodded.

"Tomorrow?" Vince said to himself then stood up and starts to follow Brian to his truck.

"Oh, I love this part." Leon whispered in an amused tone to Jesse as he saw Vince exit the store.

"Yo! Try fat burger for now on. You can get yourself a double cheeseburger with fries

for $2.95 faggot." Vince said while walking towards Brian who just turned around but

continued to walk.

"I like the tuna here." He said while continuing to walk towards his car.

"Bullshit, asshole. No one likes the tuna here." Vince said while scoffing.

"Yeah, well, I do." Brian said and was about to open the door to the truck he had driven

there but was turned around by Vince and slammed against it instead. Vince threw a

punch at Brian and he fought back.

"Damn it! Mia you need to control that boyfriend of yours ASAP!!!" Lily said looking

from Mia then to outside.

"Jesus Christ, Dom! Would you get out there? Please! I'm sick of this shit! I'm not kidding, Dom! Get out there! Now!" Mia said walking towards where her older brother sat who had been ignoring everything going on.

Dom stood up and he was very tall he looked outside. "Lils what the hell you put in

that sandwich?" He said joking although their was no change of tone in his voice to hint

that he was they just seemed to know, the only change was that he has a slight smirk on

his face.

"Oh that's really funny." Lily said sarcastically and hopped over the counter and started

towards the two idiots outside(Brian and Vince) and yelling at Vince to stop with Jesse and Leon following her.

"Yo Lils hold up!" Leon yelled going after her.

"Vince cut it out!...oh come on Vince. You're getting your ass beat up man!!" Lily yelled at Vince outside the store

"Dom!" Letty who was still inside the store yelled now taking action since Lily the so-called baby of the group or at least in her eyes had gone out there. Letty looked at her on again off again boyfriend and motioned for him to get outside.

"All right" Dom said and walks outside, Letty following while Mia stayed behind in the

store sighing 'Hear we go again.' She thought to herself not bothering to go outside even

if her boyfriend was the one who started it. She was use to it by now.

Dominic Toretto wasn't some one you wanted to mess with everyone knew that. Dom

walked outside and separated Brian and Vince from each other. Brian getting slammed

into Leon's yellow car.

"Hey man, he was in my face." Brian said while panting knowing Dominic's reputation

so he had his hands up in the air as if he was being arrested.

"I'm in your face." Dom says loudly to Brian.

Letty, Leon, Jesse and Lily were all standing behind him watching. Vince attempted to charge at Brian again but Dom grabbed him and shoved him towards the other four who all pushed him around a little.

Dom turned to Vince, "Relax! Don't push it! You embarrass me!" He yelled at

Vince as if he was scolding a small child.

"Get over there!" Leon said and shoved Vince towards the store Letty helping him and keeping a hand on his back and guiding him back to into the store.

"Jesse, give me the wallet." Dom says while staring down Brian and Jesse picks it up and hands it to Dominic, who opens it and looks at the Arizona I.D.

"Brian Earl Spilner. Sounds like a serial killer name. Is that what you are?" Dom asked partly serious.

"No, man." Brian says with his hands now down at his sides still slightly panting.

"Don't come around here again" Don yells with his finger pointed in Brian's face.

"Hey man, you know this is bullshit." Brian said as Dom started to walk away but stopped and walked towards Brian.

"You work for Harry, right?" he asked

"Yeah. I just started." Brian answered

"You were just fired." Dom yelled and walked towards the store Jesse following while

Lily gave him a quick sympathetic smiled and following the others inside.

While Brian goes over to his truck and drives off to where he works, 'The Racers Edge' a professional auto shop and dealership.
