The Yakusa(?) were getting suspicious. I could tell. The gansta' in the closet would constantly look over his books, and when it was just him and me he was fidgety. He obviously couldn't keep his cool. Then he found some thing;
"Where is this money, Han?" He asked suspiciously.
"Don't worry about it man, just leave it to me." He looked at me skeptically "I will take care of it." I say reassuringly.
That night I knew that they knew. That night I did the only thing I knew. I drove up to the top of the mountains and I called Aliey. I called a GIRL. The things you do to keep yourself alive. I should have just ran back to California to Dom and his crew, but I didn't want to get them involved. I dialed the number.
"Hello? Who is this?" A soft voice asks full of sleep.
"It's Han." I say just as softly. She paused. "I'm fucking screwed. They found the money mistakes." I admitted, defeated.
"So, you called me for help?" She asked a little confused seeing as she just woke up.
"That was kinda the plan." I laughed, it sounded stressed.
"Give me two minutes to actually get up and I'll see what I can do. Ok?" she asked yawning.
"Hey I'm just glad you didn't hang up." I admitted. The sound of a bed moving beneath the phone came through the phone. Half a minute later she was back.
"Ok, so three options. One, you can put you head between your legs and kiss you ass goodbye. Two go return the money. You still have it, right? I mean you can't really spend it. Then get the shit beat out of you. That part is unavoidable. Then hopefully go on leading a good life, if they don't cut off your legs, among other things." She says seriously. I audibly gulp.
"I Chose three." I say quickly.
"Hmmm… good choice. I don't have all the kinks worked out but-"
"Hey a little kink goes a long way." I chuckle.
"The same 'Horny Han' as always. About to be castrated and he is cracking a joke." She says giggling.
I can feel the color draining from my face. "That's what they are gonna do to me?"
"It will hit you where it hurts wont it? I don't think they make robotic ones to replace it." She laughs out of no where.
"What's so funny?" I ask, not exactly wanting to know.
"The big player Han has to pleasure woman with a dildo," She broke off laughing some more "God your gonna get so frustrated."
"What is option three? Cause that cant be it." I say dead serious. "Besides, if that happens, when you have to come back your gonna have to actually pay for a release, from a, dare I say it, a manwhore."
"I'm sorry don't I help pay for some of your tools? What does that make you?" She asks just as serious. You could hear muffled yelling from across the phone. "Ugh. Fuck. Ethan just said to stop flirting. But he hasn't gotten laid in FOREVER!" She yelled the last part, for Ethan's benefit. "God. Anyways option three. I call my Uncles and say I'm making an unplanned visit." At this I could hear a suitcase be put on the bed. "I'll fly out in the morning. I just happen to hear when they are going to try and kill you, call you." Clothes are putting into the suitcase. "You meanwhile stay on the DL, Down Low. No races, well go to races, that's a must. Ok? Then when I call you, you get in a car, preferably one that can't be linked to you, you ask it to be shipped to, Russia? No, to close. Korea? To close. No Asia. Hmm." Something is being zipped up. "Alaska! You ship it to Alaska! Or California! You pick. Then Ethan will meet you there. Yes you will!" She yells to Ethan. "Ugh. Maybe not. Then you DL some more. The American trying to take the DK title. I'm gonna have to speak with him when I get there. They wouldn't tap any calls going to me but they will going out."
"Aliey, Babe, your muttering again." I say quietly. Looking out over Tokyo Laid out before me. "I'll go to California Dom's there. I'll crash there."
"I'll give you the keys to the house I'm renting its close to Dom's. Down the street actually." She says. "But Han, don't go to Dom's garage till I'm there, the Tran Fuckups are in LA too. They would rat you out just to get back in uncles good graces. Please promise me that. I'm not gonna lie for you just for you to die in America. Please Han? Please?"
"If I get to California I will wait. Ok? Only if you will be on American soil in less than two days after I am. That I promise you." I say trying to make a deal.
"Ok. Deal. But babe you are being on a BOAT, For like three days to get there, add one and a half days to three and I can stay almost 4 days after you leave and have a legit reason to go back. So I will be flying low on their scanners." I say.
"Well I cant really say no to you can I? Thanks Aliey, I really owe you one." I say sincerely.
"Yeah, yeah, I'll think of a way for you to repay me." She giggles.
"Hey, none of that! Remember, Ethan said no flirting." I chide her playfully.
"Don't remind me. But if I get on the plane leaving at nine I will be there by races tonight, they are happening right? Just act surprised." She says finalizing her plan. "Ethan and eSkylar are staying here, so it seems like a surprise. Besides, who would take care of Sky in Tokyo?"
"Yeah the races are gonna happen. The new kid is racing T's right hand man. Besides when we come back to Tokyo they can come." I say optimistically.
"Han, you do still have the money right?" She asks tentivly. "Cause if you don't." she let the sentence hang. Not finishing the thought, though we both knew it. Weather it was for my benefit or hers I had no idea.
"Yeah of course." I reply.
"Good. Babe I gots to go I booked the flight for 9, but I got to get Dom and crew up to speed, you know? Its already 7 I gonna have to get through security and costoms. So I will see you later today."
"Yeah, your good with numbers give me a range of times you would be here, Tokyo?" I ask.
"Hmm. Like 9pm the plan should land. So like 9:30ish I'm guessing. Then I will go to races, and if T hasn't beat me to it I will call uncle."
"You think I could maybe pick you up?" I ask nervously.
"Sure, I guess. I don't honestly care. Just you and me? Or newbie too?"
"Which do you choose?" I ask knowing it will piss her off.
"Hmm. Newbie too. Cause its harder to bug a car than to bug a garage. I can hear the wheels turning in your head. Make sure the car you pick can seat all three of us comfortably. Please? And if you can manage a little bit of alcohol too, Or coffee. Hell, both. Lord knows Imma need it." She says yawning.
"Okay." I agree.
"Bye, I guess. " She says quietly.
"Bye. Love you Al. Go get Dom up to speed and all that." I say softly knowing that when she does get here, we'll have to watch our actions.
"Love you too, Horny Han." She says giggling. Dial tone.
I turn my back on Tokyo laid out before me. And go back to the Garage.
AT GARAGE
"Han, man, where you been?" Twinkie asks as I get out of my car.
"Up in the mountains." Twinkie looks at me like I have three heads. "What I had to think."
"Ok. It's just like 2 am and you had to go think? You have been gone for 3 hours. Just thinking?" He asks, no one would know but he is like a mother hen, keeping all of us in line.
"I had to make a few calls, ok?" I say shortly.
"Oh. Ok." He says understanding who I had to call. Not why, thank god.
"Yeah. I'm gonna go to sleep now that okay?" I say fighting back a yawn.
"Sure man, whatever." I turn and walk away. "Han, is she coming back? Or what?"
"Honestly I think so. I'm not sure when though." A little white lie never hurt anyone right?
