"Two minutes!" Tej yelled as he made his way to the street.
Everyone got in to their cars. There are five cars at the start line.
2000Mistubishi/ Blue with white stars.
2002 Honda/ Green with a half naked woman on top.
1999 Jetta / Pumpkin orange.
Brian's Nissan Skyline.
Joey's 2002 Audi S4/ black with read flames along the side.
Everyone sat in their cars and waited for Tej to give them the go.
" All right, fire em' up!" Tej yelled as everyone started their engines." Go!" He yelled and everyone was off.
Brian lead first place followed by Joey, the Honda was in last place.
" Your not winning." Joey said as she passed Brian.
Joey was now in first place and Brian wasn't pleased.
" To wide." Brian said as he turned a corner and jumped in front of Joey.
" Your not passing me." Joey said as she and Brian were right next to each other.
Brian pushed his Nos button and flew pass Joey, then she did the same.
" Told you I was winning." Joey said as she passed the finish line followed by Brian then the Mitsubishi, Jetta, and last the Honda.
Joey got out of her car and walked up to Tej, Brian did the same.
" Damn girl! You got some moves." Tej told her as he handed her the money.
" Thanks." Joey said as she placed the money in her left boot.
" We have to get going." Brian told Joey as he walked behind her.
" All right let's go. I'm leaving my car here and riding with you to the office." Joey explained as she and Brian walked to his car.
" I didn't know you were so good." Brian said as he drove away from the garage.
" It didn't bother you that I won, did it?" Joey asked as with a half smile. She was glad she set her mind on something and followed through.
" No. Why would it? I've won every race since I've come to Miami. It's time someone else won." Brian said, even though it was a total lie. He was pissed he didn't win, he could have really used that money, but you win some and lose some.
" Ok." Joey said as Brian pulled in to the parking lot of an abandon building that Markham and Bilkens were using.
" What did you guys find out?" Bilkens asked as Joey and Brian sat in front of him.
" Verone was very happy with us. He wanted us to drive what he said to the Keys. He wants to see us again tomorrow, to fill us in on the details." Brian explained as he folded his hands before him.
" Good. Things are going as planed." Markham said in a very pleased tone.
" How did it go with Monica?" Bilkens asked as he looked between Joey and Brian, waiting for either one of them to answer.
" It went fine, she's doing her job and more." Joey said with a small chuckle when she thought back to how close Monica and Carter were.
" What's that suppose to mean?" Markham asked, not hiding the anger in his voice.
" It means. Monica and Verone are sleeping together." Joey pointed out.
" No that's imposable."
" How would you know?" Joey asked with an attitude as she looked Markham in the eye.
" She is one of our best, she's not that type of cop." Markham said.
"Yeah. All right. What ever you say." Joey said as she looked away from Markham. She wasn't in the mood from his crap.
" Let's ask O' Conner, you know about this kind of thing. Do you think Monica is on Verone's side?" Markham asked as he crossed his arms.
" I don't know." Brian answered out of anger, fighting the urge to deck Markham's stupid little smile off his face.
"All right enough. Tomorrow after you meet with Verone, I want you two to come back and let us know what went on." Bilkens explained as everyone stood form their seats.
" All right boss." Joey said. As she and Brian left back to his car.
" What happened in L.A?" Joey asked Brian started the car.
" I thought you knew." Brian said as he glanced at her.
" I know some. I know you were suppose to bust a gang of street racers. What else?" Joey asked.
Brian took a deep breath, since Joey was his partner he figured she should know the truth. " It was Dominic Toretto and his team…."
Joey was taken back by the name and said with pure shock in her voice. " Dom? Your job was to bust my cousin and best friends."
