Bah. what a shitty chapter. get over it, death in the family.
The familiar V shape of the Toretto team cars roared up to races, everyone staring in awe as they usually did. They noticed a new addition to the V- A hot new Shelby Mustang.
As the team pulled to a stop, they all stepped out and all eyes were on Twiggs.
"LISTEN UP!" Dom yelled out, looking around as everyone quieted to listen to the King.
"This man right here, is Twiggs Vasquez, and he is now a part of Team Toretto. Tonight, he will be the only member racing--
so We're gonna do this right. 5 g buy in. My man is driving a 1967 Shelby Mustang GT 500, and I'm going to admit that he beat my 1/4 mile time. Any takers?" Dom finished, looking around as Twiggs dished five thousand out of his wallet.
A guy standing in front of a blue Nissan 350Z stepped forward and slapped a wad of c notes into Dom's out stretched hand.
"Alright, we got 2, anyone else?" Dom called out.
"Yeah, right here." A small voice said.
"Where?" Dom laughed.
Letty was leaning against her Silvia bordly, as she often did at races, keeping a close eye on Dom, when someone grabbed her from behind, placing a hand over her mouth.
She was about to spin around and kick this asshole in the nuts, when he put his mouth to her ear.
"Muñeca.." The voice said.
She froze in place and the man slowly released her.
Letty spun around to find herself staring into the blue eyes of Brian O'Connor.
She stared at him for a moment, then slapped him as tears began to well up in her eyes.
"I guess i deserved.." He was cut off by Letty hugging him.
"Thank you,Brian..Thank you so much.."She whispered
"Who are you and what have you done with my Muñeca?" He asked, using the nickname he had given her all those months ago, which simply meant "Doll".
"I should probaly hate you for what you did. You used us, pretended to be our friends just so you could bust us. But I can tell by the look in your eyes and your actions on the last heist that you never wanted to do what you did. Besides, Dom might hate you enough for the both of us." She grinned at him, giving him a famous Letty eyebrow.
Brian stared at her for a second, thinking of what to do.
Letty smiled with an idea building in her head.
"You racing tonight, Chumpy?" She asked.
"I was going to try.."
"Good, give me your 5g's and go get in your car." She cut him off.
He shrugged and handed her a mound of bills.
Letty walked over to Dom to find him talking to a long haired brunette girl that was about her height.
She looked back and forth between Dom and the girl.
"Dom, we have a fourth.." Letty said, not taking her eyes off of the girl.
"Who?" Dom asked.
"Don't know, but here's his buy-in." She said, handing Dom the money.
He rolled his eyes.
"Fine, is he on the line?" Dom asked.
Letty looked over and realized the Nissan Skyline GT-R R-34 must be Chumpy. The windows were tinted just enough that Brian was just a dark figure.
"Oh yeah, you could say that." She smiled.
Dom looked at her strangely then turned to Twiggs.
"Aight man, go do you thing and cut that beast loose." Dom layed a hand on his shoulder.
Nobody was very sure about the first race--They weren't sure of what to expect from the Shelby, or who was in the silver and blue Skyline, but once Hector dropped his arms and all 4 cars took off, they didn't care anymore.
The girl that Dom was speaking with was the third in the race, driving a black 1995 Toyota Supra.
The Nissan 350Z pulled up beside her as they sped down the 1/4 mile strip.
"Oh no you don't.." She said to herself, shifting into third,passing him easily as she started to gain on the two cars occupying the space in front of her.
Twiggs shifted up into fourth from a redline, looking over at the Skyline flying beside him.
"Man, this guy is fast.." He spoke to no one.
Brian looked over through his tinted window as he shifted into fourth, glancing at the driver of the Shelby Mustang.
"Man, he's good.." He spoke to himself.
Shifting into her 6th and final gear, Samantha Gray hesitated then hit her NOS as she flew up past the Mustang, passing over the finish line just inches ahead of him, taking second place as Brian stole first.
"Damnit.." Twiggs cursed and hit the steering wheel, slowing down and making a U turn.
As the four cars pulled up to the startline, Twiggs got out and sighed.
"Don't worry about it Dawg, you did real good for a first time." Leon said, looking over at him.
"So, who's the mystery winner of the 20g's i hold in my hand?" Dom yelled out laughing, walking over towards the Skyline.
The driver sat there for a moment, then the door finally swung open and Brian stepped out, staring intently at Dom.
Dom's smile faded and he dropped his hands.
"Spilner..O'Connor..What the hell are you doing back here?" Dom asked as calmly as he could.
"I felt the need to return. You guys have to understand I did what I did because I didn't know you guys then. I didn't know what a good group of people were, but as time went on and I started working at the garage, I realized this, and I didn't want to believe it was you guys doing those things. I didn't want to believe it." He finished, looking at the entire team as he spoke. Most of them looked shocked to see him, but thoughtful as Brian spat out words from his soul.
Dom nodded and licked his lips walking up to Brian.
"I don't know whether to kick your ass, or thank you. So i'm just going to invite you to my place for the afterparty." Dom grinned.
Brian gave his infamous boyish grin and nodded.
"Thanks.."
Vince walked up to Brian, his face inches from Brian's.
"Vince..." Brian said.
"Spilner.." Vince said before hitting Brian in the jaw, knocking him down.
Vince laughed and slapped his knee.
"MAN THAT FELT GOOD!" He yelled, holding out a hand to help Brian up.
Brian pulled himself up and shook his head, spitting out blood.
"Welcome back, Blondie. I guess I owe you for saving my ass, don't I?" Vince grinned.
Brian smiled and nodded.
"Yeah, I'd say." He agreed.
"Alright Team Toretto, LETS GET THIS MAN DRUNK!" Vince yelled, throwing his hands into the air.
