Didn't think I'd have another chapter up so quickly, huh? Well, here you go!

Chapter 20: Shocking Discovery

It was quiet in the house. The only noises were the dishes in the kitchen as Rosa was cleaning them. Vince was looking between Brian and Mia and would occasionally look at Roxy. Mia never took her eyes off Roxy and neither did Brian. Roxy was crying and so was Mia. Roxy sniffled and laughed a little.

"So is anyone gonna talk or is it just gonna be me?" At the sound of Roxy's voice, Mia launched herself at Roxy and clung to her and cried. Roxy did the same to Mia. Brian looked at Vince and gave him a questioning look. Vince just shook his head, signalling to let Roxy explain it herself. Brian nodded and stood up. He put his hand on Mia's shoulder.

"C'mon Mia. I want to see my little sister again." Mia pulled back and laughed a little. Brian looked at Roxy and grinned. He lifted her and spun her around. He put her down and hugged her.

"It's great to see you again, Rox." Roxy nodded and pulled back. Mia gasped and Roxy looked at her.

"What?" Mia stared at her. Roxy's heart started hammering. Was something wrong?

"Oh my God! Your hair! Why? Why did you cut it?" Roxy let out a relieved laugh, thankful that something wasn't wrong. She ran a hand through her hair.

"It's a lot easier to handle and I knew that I wouldn't be able to handle long hair with this kind of heat. Besides, like I told Vince, I wanted a change."
Mia laughed, nodding. She knew that Roxy was like that. Brian smiled.

"Well, I like it." Roxy laughed. Mia rolled her eyes.

"It's not that I don't like it. I love it. It's just a shame that all those red locks are gone. You suit your hair like that, though." Roxy grinned and shrugged. They all sat down and Vince got straight down to business.

"OK, so there's one last job." Brian shook his head and a hint of a smile was on his face. Vince looked at Brian and Mia. "And with what I'm seeing, you both look like you need a payday."

"I don't know." Brian said looking over at Mia. Vince sighed.

"Look, it's a good gig. The way the car scene works down here is that we can unload the cars quick and get top dollar." Roxy, Brian and Mia all looked at each other. Roxy let out a breath.

"Sounds risky, bro." Vince shook his head.

"It's a good gig." He repeated. Roxy looked at Mia and Brian before nodding.

"I'm in." Brian and Mia nodded too.

"So are we." Vince smiled and nodded.

"Alright, good." They sat and talked for another hour before Mia and Brian went to bed. Roxy laid back in the chair and ran a hand over her face.

"Well, that went better than I expected. You do know that they'll be talking to you tomorrow when you guys go on the train." Roxy looked at Vince and groaned. Vince grinned, knowing he was right. He rubbed her arm.

"It'll be fine. Just take your time." Roxy nodded.

"I thikn I'm going to bed too." Vince nodded. They both went to bed and Roxy dreaded for tomorrow to arrive.

~~~~~~~~~~ F+F ~~~~~~~~~~

Roxy woke up with the sun streaming through the window. She smiled, thinking of Ireland. She then sat up as everything form yesterday came flooding back to her. She groaned, knowing she was going to have to tell Mia and Brian today. She sighed and got up to get changed. She threw on a green tank top, a pair of denim shorts and a leather jacket and a pair of ankle boots. She realised that she had picked out the exact same outift that she had worn that night she escaped from Fenix and almost died. She shuddered and walked into the kitchen. She saw Rosa and smiled when she saw Nico in his highchair. She walked over to Nico and grinned.

"Hello, Nico. How's my man today?" Rosa turned and smiled. She saw that Roxy had a knack for caring for kids. She knew that Roxy would be an excellent aunt to Nico. Roxy kissed Nico's head and walked over to Rosa.

"Need any help?" Rosa nodded.

"Can you make some toast?" Roxy nodded and proceeded to do just that. Five minutes later, Mia, Brian and Vince walked into the kitchen. Vince walked over to Rosa and kissed her. He hugged Roxy and then sat at the table. Brian came over and kissed Roxy's cheek and did the same to Rosa and he also thanked her for letting him and Mia stay. Mia came over and helped the women. They were all peacefully cooking and then brought the food to the table. Breakfast was quiet but it wasn't awkward. It was a rather comfortable silence as everyone ate in silence and peace. Soon, it was time to go and Brian, Mia and Roxy left to get the train. They made their way to the car Brian and Mia came in and Roxy gave a whistle.

"Nice." Brian grinned and winked. Mia and Roxy laughed. They got into the car and drove off towards the train station. Brian and Roxy followed Mia as she was able to speak portuguese and they couldn't. Mia bought the tickets and they got on the train. The train had started to move when Mia and Brian looked at Roxy. She sighed and ran a hand through her hair.

"OK, guys. I know I owe you an explanation. Look, I just wanted to make sure you guys were safe. OK? I didn't want to come back and have the police get me and also get my family. It's not right. I didn't want you guys to get arrested because of me. I didn't want to leave. Believe me. I was crying my eyes out when I made this decision. Just trust me, OK? Brian, I know that you would have done the same." Brian hesitantly nodded. "I know you would have done it because you love Mia and you wouldn't want her to be hurt or killed." Mia grabbed Brian's hand and squeezed it gently. She smiled at him. She then looked at Roxy and smiled. She reached over and hugged her.

"I don't really care. As long as you aren't going anywhere anymore, I'm fine with that." Roxy and Brian laughed a little. Roxy nodded.

"I won't leave again. I promise." Mia nodded in satisfaction and went back to reading the travel guide. Roxy moved closer to her and was reading it with her. Brian was looking out the window and then turned to see the two women reading.

"What are you reading?"

"Travel guide." Roxy and Mia replied at the same time. They looked at each other and giggled. Brian rolled his eyes.

"Really?" He gently took the book from their hands.

"Mmhmm." Mia confirmed. Brian flicked through the pages.

"Tokyo, Goa, Moscow..."

"Do you know what these places all have in common?" Mia asked them both. Brian looked at Roxy and then looked at Mia and shook his head.

"What?"

"No extradition." Roxy answered. Mia looked over to her and grinned. Brian smiled at them. Roxy heard a door being opened and looked up. Mia saw her look up and followed her gaze. She looked at Brian and smiled.

"Here we go." They all stood up and made their to the door. Mia 'accidentally' bumped into the ticket man and started apologising to him in portuguese while Brian scanned his card. Brian passed him and mumbled an apology. Roxy quietly went past him but offered him a smile which he returned. The three of them then went through the door and got to another door. Brian held up a little device to the scanner and a beeping was heard. The door clicked and Brian grinned. They were in. They got in, closed the door and Brian switched on the walkie talkie.

"Hey, we've found them. Yeah, second-to-the-last freighter." Brian and Mia went to the little box which held the keys of the car. Roxy went ahead to start untagging the cars. Brian looked at the keys. Mia looked at him confused.

"What? What is it?" Brian looked at her.

"DEA tags. These cars have been seized." They then went ahead to help Roxy untag the cars. Brian brought out his walkie-talkie.

"Yeah, we found them. Yeah, second last raider." He then unclipped the last car and all three of them stood beside each other and waited. Roxy heard the sound of something sizzling before the metal wall in front of them shook and then it ripped away. In its place were four guys. Roxy saw Vince and he saw her. He immediately went to her and hugged her.

"You alright?" Roxy nodded. She saw Mia pass her and hug someone.

"I'm so glad you're OK." Roxy was confused. Once Mia pulled away, Roxy understood. It was Dom. Dom looked at her and then looked at Vince.

"Who is this?" Vince shook his head. Roxy was shocked and a little annoyed. Dom didn't recognise her. At all.

"She's with me, Dom. You can trust her." Roxy gaped at Vince. Was he playing some sort of game? If he was, she was going to play it too.

"I'm Eva." Roxy said, putting on an American accent. Dom nodded and then stood aside for Vince to pass him to get into the car. Roxy looked at him.

"Be careful, Vince." Vince smiled.

"Don't worry, Eva." He chuckled and so did Roxy. "Just keep that up until he realises who you are. Or unless you crack." He grinned and Roxy rolled her eyes. She closed the door for him and stood beside Dom. She watched as the car was dragged onto the vehicle and was then lowered onto the ground. Vince sped off and was soon out of sight. A man on Dom's left went to move but Dom stuck his hand out.

"Ladies first." Mia, who was beside Roxy, walked forward and dragged Roxy with her. Roxy got into the passenger side as Mia got into the driver's side. She could see men arguing.

"Hey!" Mia called. Roxy had no idea what she said after that as it was in portuguese but it ceased their fighting so she let it go. Mia got in. Roxy and Mia put on their seatbelts and Roxy heard her door being open. Dom looked at them both.

"Change of plans. Wait for my call." They both nodded. Dom hit the car roof.

"LET'S GO!" They dragged the car out and the car was lowered to the ground. Mia drove off and then did a complete U-turn. Roxy knew this was coming. She was still upset that Dom hadn't recognised her yet. Mia noticed this.

"Hey, you OK, Roxy?" Roxy sighed.

"Yeah, it's no big deal. Dom didn't know who I was. He thinks I'm called Eva and have an American accent." Mia's eyes widened. "I told him I was called Eva and said it in an American accent." Mia nodded her head in understanding.

"Seriously?" Roxy nodded. Mia sighed and took her hand. "It'll be OK." Roxy nodded. The rest of the drive was spent in comfortable silence. They came to the favelas again and Mia pulled into a garage in the streets. They got out of the car. Mia switched on the radio and listened to all the different news. Every time she turned it over, she would shake her head. This had been going on for ten minutes before it made Roxy nervous.

"What are they saying?" Mia sighed.

"There were three DEA agents and they died on the train. They are blaming me, Brian and Dom for the murders." Roxy gasped.

"What the fuck? You weren't even there! They were alive when we were on the train so they must have died after we left." Mia nodded and shrugged. They both heard a noise and Mia switched off the radio. She grabbed a socket wrench and Roxy grabbed a pipe which was under the table. They each hid behind a pillar. Mia looked at Roxy and saw that she was prepared for a fight.

"Mia?" Brian's deep voice called out. Mia smiled and walked out of her hiding spot. Roxy did the same. Mia walked over to Brian.

"Hey." Brian saw her and smiled.

"You OK?" Mia nodded. Brian looked at Roxy. Roxy nodded her head too. Brian smiled and kissed Mia's head. Dom walked in and Mia hugged him. She pulled back and he saw the socket wrench in her hand. He took it and smiled.

"Yeah. Just like a Toretto." Mia smiled and shurgged. Dom lifted his head and saw Roxy. He saw the pipe in her hand and saw the way she was standing. She looked like she was able to fight. Dom smiled.

"Thank you for looking out for her." He pointed his head to Mia. Roxy nodded and smiled.

"She's like a sister to me." Dom raised an eyebrow.

"You know her?" Roxy decided to have some fun. Mia had walked over to Brian and they watched on in amusement. Roxy nodded at Dom.

"Yeah. I've known her for nine years now." Dom looked at Mia. Roxy leaned on the pillar with her shoulder and folded her arms across her chest.

"You never told me you knew an Eva." Mia shrugged. Dom looked back at Roxy.

"How do you know her?" Roxy grinned.

"Oh, you mean the fact that you guys took me in when I was eleven years old?" Roxy let her irish accent slip through again and started talking normally. "And when I became Vince's sister? Yeah, that's how I know her." Dom's eyes widened.

"No way..." He murmured. He looked at Mia and Brian and they nodded to confirm his suspicions. "No way... That's impossible." Roxy rolled her eyes.

"Well, face it, Dom. It's possible. I'm standing right here. Roxy Cartel at your service." She saluted Dom and Brian and Mia chuckled. Dom stared at her.

"Rox?" Roxy nodded.

"Yeah. It's me, Dommy." Dom's eyes widened even more, if that was possible. Only one person ever called him Dommy and that was Roxy and although she hadn't called him that since she was about twelve years old, she knew that he would know. Dom grinned. He ran towards her and picked her up.

"Oh my God, Roxy! I've missed you so much! God, you have no idea how I felt when I heard you and Letty died! Wait... does that mean Letty...?" Roxy shook her head. She knew Dom was asking if Letty was alive and she wanted to respect her sister's wishes.

"No, Dom. She didn't make it." Roxy said her voice breaking at the end, adding to the sadness in her voice. Dom hugged her and comforted her when she cried. When she was finished, she smiled up at him. Dom smiled down at her but he also gave her face that clearly said 'we're gonna talk later.' Roxy nodded. Dom then walked over to the car.

"Where's Vince?" Mia asked. Roxy didn't even notice that and was panicking slightly. Brian looked around.

"Yeah, that's a good question." Roxy nodded.

"He'll be here." Dom said in a final tone.

"So what do we do now?" Brian asked. Dom shook his head.

"I don't know. One thing's for sure... is that they wanted this car." Roxy looked at it.

"So something's in it." She said. Dom looked at her and smiled and nodded.

"And we're gonna find out what."

~~~~~~~~~~ F+F ~~~~~~~~~~

So what do you think? Quick update, huh? Yeah, well I was bored and I didn't feel like watching a movie or anything so I wanted to work on another chapter and I didn't even notice that I had finished it. So yay! By the way, my DVD is broke at the minute so I can't watch the films to get the lines from the film but I did this but memory. I've seen Fast Five so many times so I can remember a lot. Yay! R&R!
