The South Pacific
Brian and Mia's Beach house
Brain listened into the other end of the phone with confusion as to why agent Monica Fuentes was contacting him now after so much time, it seemed incredibly dodgy and strange that she would pick the time to come in contact with him when Mia was having her baby soon. Gripping onto the phone tightly he grit his teeth together and listened to what she had to say,
"What the hell do you want from me, Monica?" he asked defensively, looking around the kitchen making sure Mia couldn't hear the conversation between himself and the federal agent.
She sighed on the other end of the line,
"Are you familiar with a Miss Leticia Ortiz?" she asked quietly, Brian knew from the tone of her voice that she wanted to keep this secret.
The sound of Dom's girlfriend's name sent alarm bells ringing within his head, frowning deeply he wondered if this was some sort of trick to capture Dom, it sure sounded like it. Why would she bring Letty up?
"Letty's dead, what's the point in bringing her up in this conversation, are you intentionally trying to piss me off agent Fuentes because it's fucking working!" he snapped, trying not to get too angry where Mia could hear him.
He jutted his head to the side, peering down the hall to the bedroom where Mia was lying asleep, the last thing he wanted was to wake her up when she could hardly get any sleep anyways.
"Brian…" she began in a low voice, "You're mistaken, Letty's alive."
He frowned as he had to think about what she had just said in order for his brain to take the information in,
"What did you just say?" he asked in a whisper, "Are you trying to play with my mind, I don't appreciate it!"
Monica coughed and sighed,
"Brian why the hell would I play with your mind, huh?" she asked angrily "If you don't believe me then pick a place out where we can meet, I'll show you the evidence that we have to prove you wrong."
Brian pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration,
"We had a fucking funeral for her, I don't believe it for one second!" he growled,
"Really, you don't?" she asked "Then you explain to me why her fingerprints were found all over a heist in Berlin a couple of weeks ago, you explain why a CCTV video caught an image of her face while she passed a gas station!"
Brian felt his heart race faster, this couldn't be happening; there was no possible way that Letty could be alive,
"You didn't see her body, apparently some FBI agent told you that she was too messed up to be identified…, that agent staged the funeral and let her go. Brian, she escaped the country into Berlin, do you remember the agent who apparently found her body?"
He had to think, this was all too shocking for him to understand at the moment, he was understanding more and more of this and it was actually making sense, he didn't see Letty's body. Nobody would allow him or Dom in to see her,
"Brian, whoever the agent was, we need to know their name. They set Dom up, they set Letty up and they could be trying to accomplish the same thing again, do you remember the agent's name?"
Brian slapped his hand against his head as he tried to digest all of this situation, he felt relieved, confused, angry, annoyed, he felt everything.
"Agent…" he sighed "I can't remember right now, can you e-mail me this information, I want to make sure you're not telling me a bunch of shit. Letty was like a sister to me, if you and that asshole Hobbs are making this shit up then I will hunt you down!"
Monica sighed,
"Brian, I will admit that we want Dom in custody and we're going to try to track down this sneaky little bitch, Letty to lure him. We will find her cause we're that damn good at our job, I would never lie to you about a family member being dead when she's actually alive. We're just trying to do the best thing and bring all guilty convicts into custody, it's only a matter of time before we catch Dom, just wait and see…" she explained "I'm sending you e-mail information right now, you'll see the proof."
Brian believed the sincerity within the agent's voice, he knew a liar when he heard one but Monica was telling the truth and she was telling the truth about some fucked up agent staging her death. He tried to think of somebody who would have done that, he tried to remember the name of the agent who informed them of Letty's apparent death but he just couldn't rack his brain. He sighed deeply and thought about Dom, when he found out about this whole thing, he was going to fucking kill everybody involved. Brian could only imagine Dom's face when he was told that Letty was alive,
"I've sent that e-mail; take a look at it as fast as you can. I don't have much time on this line…"
Brian quickly tiptoed towards the desk that was situated within the living room, the computer was already on.
"Alright, let me see this file," he said quietly as he opened up the private mail that he only ever used for FBI information, typing in his password he could see the file immediately pop up.
Squinting his ice blue eyes, he clicked on the link twice and the information was there, all of it.
"You found it?" Monica asked,
Brian couldn't help but stare at the picture of Letty's face, her typical frown and beautiful dark eyes that were filled with anger in the shot they had taken of her. He couldn't believe his eyes, it was an incredible but emotional sight, he gulped and looked at the fingerprints that were pictured beside Letty's photograph. It was an identical match; she was caught in Berlin taking down a military convoy but escaped like she usually did.
"Yeah…" he replied breezily "I've got it, holy shit!"
There was a slight chuckle from the other end,
"She's a fighter, that's for sure. Just like Toretto…" Monica said.
Brian gulped,
"You believe me now?"
"Yeah."
Agent Fuentes huffed,
"Well that's my time off, I better get going before I get caught talking to you O'Conner…"
Brian couldn't help but stare at the image of Letty and wonder how the hell they could have missed this, how could they have not thought something was up when they refused for her body to be shown.
"Monica…" he said "I think you should know that we will find Letty before you do, there is no way you will catch her."
There was a laugh,
"Sounds like a challenge, a challenge you will lose. See ya later O'Conner."
The phone line went dead, Brian frowned and placed the phone down on the desk before resting his face in the palms of his hands,
"Fucking hell…" he shook his head "Goddamn it, Letty!" he muttered to himself.
There was a creaking sound from behind him, turning swiftly, Mia was standing behind him staring at the computer screen,
"Mia…" he sighed as he stood in front of her,
She pushed him out of the way and looked at Letty's picture, her jaw trembled as tears came to her eyes.
"She's alive, Brian?" Mia gasped with a shocked expression "Oh my god, Letty, she's alive!" Mia cried as she leaned her head on Brian's chest.
He wrapped his arms around her and kissed the top of her head gently while rubbing the bottom of her back,
"They her up, Mia, they set us all up!" he said angrily.
She pulled her face away from his chest and wiped her tears before shaking her head,
"How are we going to tell Dom?"
Brian kissed her forehead and shrugged his shoulders,
"I don't know."
