I - Heist Gone Wrong and Things Go South
We reached where we store the Hondas for the heists and parked our cars. We then took the tarps off of the three Hondas.
"Alright, we're one man short. Letty, I need you and David on the left side." Dom said and we got all the equipment out and put them in the cars.
"Your sister's right about this one. This don't feel good." Leon told him as he handed the spear gun to him.
"Don't do that." Dom warned him.
"Something's wrong." Letty said, handing him another spear gun.
"Stop." Dom firmly told her.
"We shouldn't be doing this without Jesse." Letty stated. Thinking about it. It just seems like something bad might happen.
"Look, this is the mother lode. We've been on this for three months. After this, it's a long vacation for everyone." Dom reasoned with us as he took his jacket off.
"Let's go." He then said. I shook my head with worry and got in the car that me and Letty will be in.
"Leon, keep on those scanners." Dom said.
"Copy that." Leon replied.
"Let's go." Dom then ordered us and we all drove as daylight was approaching.
After driving for hours, and with it being the early hours of daylight, we reached our target.
"Okay! Go time!" Dom told us through the walkie talkies. We then got into formation with Dom and Vince in front and me and Letty to the left.
Vince popped up through the sunroof and shot the windshield off of the truck. Leon then mentioned that we haven't got the attention of the police yet. Vince then shot again into the truck so that he could get in and attached a rope to his belt.
He then jumped onto the truck but then we heard a gunshot.
"Shit! The driver's armed!" I realised.
"Shit!" Letty cursed. She then gained some speed.
"Dom! We're pulling up to distract him!" Letty informed Dom and reached the front of the truck.
"Come on, boy!" Letty said.
"Shit really just got worse." I muttered. But then the driver shot at us and hit the rear windshield. And then it was chaos because Vince was now on the right side and through the walkie talkie I hear him saying something about his arm. Crap!
"Dom! Get out of the way. We're coming to get him." I told him. Letty then managed to get to the other side of the truck through the gap. But as we were about to reach Vince, the truck driver decided to ram up and we crashed. That hurt so bad!
"You okay?" I asked her, straining through the pain, trying to get out.
"Aside from some bruises, I'm good." She strained as well and we managed to get out as Leon came to check on us. We then got into Leon's car. It was a bit of a tight squeeze because I had to have Letty on my lap. And trust me, it felt uncomfortable doing it. We then got Dom as his car was shot to hell and me and Letty had to squeeze in the back.
And then we followed the Supra and saw that it was Brian and Mia. They have Vince.
"Watch her." Dom ordered Leon and both me and him went to check on Vince and saw that his arm was badly hurt. With Brian using his belt as a tourniquet.
"If we don't get him to an ambulance in 10 minutes, he's dead." Brian informed us. Oh, God, this is so bad. I suspected this would happen someday.
Brian then got on the phone and what he said next made me angry beyond belief.
"Yeah. Yeah, this is Officer Brian O'Conner."
Me and Dom glared at him in pure anger. He lied to us! He might've actually used the story I told him to try and get me or something! I cannot believe he just pulled a Point Break on us.
"I'm off duty MAPD. I need a life flight roll out right away." Brian said to whoever he's calling.
"My 20 is Highway 86, mile marker 147. I got one trauma victim, about 24 years of age. Six foot, maybe 200 pounds. He's got a deep laceration to his right arm with arterial bleeding. And he's got a shotgun wound close range to his left flank. Yeah. Yeah, he's going into shock!" Brian blurted out in desperation. We couldn't do anything so we just made sure Vince was alright by the time the medics got him.
Eventually, the helicopter arrived and they loaded Vince on. Me, Dom and Mia watched in the distance and we looked at Mia, since she must've known. Then we walked away back to Leon's car. We then looked back to Mia and barked at her to come with us and eventually she did as told. Me and her got in the back with Letty and Dom got in the passenger seat. I didn't look at Mia at all. She helped a cop, regardless. How could she turn her back on her family?
Leon then drove down the highway, heading back to LA.
Once we reached the house, Dom made Mia get in the house and told me, Letty and Leon to go as far away as I could. They did as told but I didn't.
"David, get in the car!" Dom ordered me. I am not leaving Dom, especially after everything he's done for me.
"No! I am not leaving you. I am not leaving the person that has been family more than my biological one. I am not leaving my brother!" I fired back at him. He knew I was stubborn when it comes to family and so he nodded and let me stay with him so that we can find Jesse before Johnny does. He grabbed a shotgun and we were about to enter the Charger but Brian parked in the driveway and pointed a gun at us.
"Dom, put the gun down now!" He shouted.
"Move your car, snake!" I barked at him.
"No bullshit! Put it down now! No more running!" He shouted. Oh, so that's what he thinks we're doing. NOT EVEN CLOSE!
"WE'RE NOT RUNNING!" Dom bellowed and we walked up to him as he did, still pointing the gun at us.
"Where's Leon and Letty?" He asked us.
"They're long gone!" Dom answered loudly.
"Then it's over. I didn't call the police, but don't push me! Put the gun down! I swear to God!" Brian told us.
"You're the cop! You're a cop!" Dom shouted at him while pointing at him.
"We have to find Jesse before they do, Brian! Now step aside!" I yelled at him.
"I'll call in the plates. PD will pick him up way before Johnny even gets near him." Brian instead told us and now we've had enough and so Dom cocked the shotgun.
"Move your car." He ordered the cop.
"Dom, David, stop it! It's over please!" Mia begged us.
"YOU STAY THE FUCK OUT OF THIS!" I snapped at her in pure anger. She looked shocked and hurt at what I did. GOOD!
And then we heard a car and we looked and it was Jesse! He then got out and looked utterly distressed.
"Dominic, David, I am so sorry. I don't know what I'm doing, Dom. I'm so scared right now. I don't know what's going on." Jesse said and Dom threw the shotgun away.
"Jess! What were you thinking, man?" Dom questioned him. Jesse was replying to him but I heard motorcycles and my attention was on that because I turned and saw that it was Johnny and Lance!
"Shit." I muttered.
They fired their guns at us as they drove past us and we dodged them. I ducked behind the Supra but then I saw Jesse shot down and killed.
"NO!" I screamed and grabbed a hold of his lifeless body. Dom and Mia gathered around and mourned his death.
But now, I am furious beyond measure and I want them dead. Brian got in the Supra and sped off after them. Me and Dom marched right to the Charger and we got in, with Dom behind the wheel. He revved the car to life and we went down the road and went to try to get Johnny and Lance and kill them for what they did.
Dom swerved the corner and rammed into Lance and he was launched into the air and crashed. We got out and looked out to see him lying on the ground, grunting and moaning in pain. We felt satisfied so we got back into the Charger and tried to catch up with Johnny and Brian.
We stopped and saw that Brian was somehow able to take down Johnny. Dom then took off to a particular spot.
Once we reached the place, Dom stopped and Brian stopped next to us.
"I used to drag back here in high school. That railroad crossing up there is exactly a quarter mile away from here." Dom told him.
"On green, we're going for it." He then said. All that can be done now is to rev up before the lights change. Eventually, the light changed and the Charger did a wheelie and then it was just neck and neck. The lights for the railroad were on, meaning that a train was coming. It's now or never.
Something then happened to the Charger which made me tense. We just kept going and then we saw the train and right when we went past the railroad, we narrowly dodged the train.
We both looked to Brian but then we crashed into a truck and it caused the charger to flip in the air and crash. This was the second one I've been in today and I can't stomach them anymore.
Brian stopped his car and ran to us.
"Dom! David!"
I panted so hard because I felt a sharp pain in my side.
"That's not what I had in mind." Dom said.
"And I am now trying to avoid car crashes from now on." I winced.
With some difficulty, I got out of the car and so did Dom.
We then heard police sirens. I guess this will be my first time in prison, I guess.
But Brian did something I thought he'd never do.
He gave his car keys to Dom.
"You know what you're doing?" He asked him, since he's a cop giving criminals a way out.
"I owe you a 10 second car. And David needs someone there for him." Brian said.
With that, the both of us walked to the Supra and got in. Dom was behind the wheel and he drove us away from the police. And hopefully, out of the city.
Outside of LA
We have been driving for hours now and I've been silent the entire time.
I was now able to reflect back on what has happened and it was all caving in on me. I lost part of the family, I was betrayed and now we're wanted and more than likely being searched for.
It was all too much for me that I started crying.
Dom must've noticed because he stopped the car in the middle of the road.
"David?" He asked in concern.
"It's all gone to shit." I said, breaking down. I just couldn't hold it in anymore, life was perfectly fine until all of this happened.
"I know, but things are gonna get better soon." Dom told me
"HOW?! How can things get better from here on out?!" I asked him.
"I don't know. But I'll make sure things get better, I promise." He said to try and calm me down.
After a few minutes, I managed to calm down and breathed steadily.
"Okay. Okay. Where do we go? Mexico, still?" I asked him. He smiled in a reassuring way, like an older brother would do.
"Of course." He said and then he started the car up and we headed into an unknown future.
Now the first film is done. Look forward to more as we get closer to when David meets Gisele.
