I just couldn't give you the whole hijacking in one chapter so here's part 1. As always you like it let me know and if you don't let me know.
Chapter 55
The Civics came down the dirt road in single file. Sky looked over to Letty who was concentrating on the road ahead. "What?" Letty questioned catching Sky staring at her.
"I have that feeling in the pit of my stomach. It's never steered me wrong. Whenever I felt it I knew my ass was in trouble."
Letty took her eyes off the road to look her in the eyes, "Everything's gonna be alright. Dom won't let anything happen to us." Inside she knew that was a lie. Dom was trouble and anything he was involved in usually went down bad.
"I hope you're right."
The sun was beginning to peak over the mountain as the Civics caught up to the truck. "Scanners are clear. Go time." Leon called across the radio. Letty pulled out of the line and jetted in front of the truck. With no hesitation, Sky slipped her helmet on and opened the sunroof. She snaked her body out of the seat and out the window. After quickly steadying herself against the wind she fired the spear gun. The silver spear crashed through the passenger window of the truck and she activated the wench to drag the window out. Once the spear was securely back in her hand minus the window, she slipped back into the car. "You're good to go Dom. Send V in."
"Letty fall back. Good work Sky." Dom called across the radio. Letty pulled off to the left and let up off the accelerator. He pulled to the inside between her car and the truck. The truck began weaving trying to cause an accident. Dom hit the accelerator hard pushing his car in front of the truck allowing Letty to join Leon in the back.
Vince took a deep breath and popped out of the car. He shot his spear into the passenger seat and latched the line to his harness. Standing on the trunk lid of the car he didn't see the shotgun in the driver's hand. Dom yelled for Vince to get back into the car, but it was too late. Vince made the jump and had hold of the grill when the first shot rang out.
Dom grabbed the radio sitting on his lap, "Leon, he's got a damn shotgun."
"Shit." Leon looked back in the backseat of his car for the other tranquilizer gun. He then remembered that Sky had put in Letty's car. "Dom get him off of there any way you can."
When Leon released the button Sky's voice came across the radio, "Everybody stay back. Letty's gonna get me close for a shot and I don't need to worry about one of you guys getting in the way."
"No Sky don't do this." Leon pleaded with her.
He thought there had to be another way, but it was too late. Letty had already pulled even with the trailer of the truck. She measured the Civic up against the truck and swerved under it. They raced up the right side of the truck hoping to surprise the trucker. Sky rose out of the window. As she aimed the high powered tranq gun at the trucker, she found herself staring down the barrel of the shotgun. She squeezed the trigger and followed the dart as it flew through the air right into the guy. She breathed a sigh of relief. Slipping into the car she heard a shot ring out again. In an instant the rear window shattered and blood poured from Letty's chest. Everything happened in slow motion as Letty lost control of the car sending it flying off the side of the road. It flew several feet in the air before landing on the driver's side and flipping over several more times. Sky didn't have a chance to get her seatbelt on and was tossed around the car with each flip. Her head hit the roll cage and everything went black.
Leon and Dom watched the car carrying the women they loved crash hard on the side of the road. His hands shaking Dom grabbed the radio, "Get the girls."
There was no response from Leon. He made a u-turn in the middle of the highway and sped toward the crash site. Pieces of the car were strewn across a wide area. Running to the car he found Letty still strapped into her seat bleeding heavily. "Letty can you hear me?" She didn't answer him. "I'm gonna get you out of there." He unbuckled her seatbelt and laid her on the ground. When he looked back into the car he noticed Sky was not inside. Out of the corner of his eye he saw the Supra pull up. Mia and Brian ran down the hill to help.
Mia screamed when she saw the gaping hole in Letty's chest. Shock took over and she fell to the ground. She kept saying Letty's name while rocking back and forth.
Brian kneeled down bedside Letty and put pressure on the wound. Blood still flowed through his fingers. "We got to get her to hospital now or she's gonna die."
"I can't find her." Leon said through tear filled eyes.
Brian knew the answer to his question before he finished asking, "Who?"
"She was in the passenger seat. It was a mistake to do this. She told me it didn't feel right and I let her do it anyway."
"Leon man you ain't making sense. If I'm going to help you I need to be able to understand you."
"I got to find her." Leon started off past the car to look for Sky. "Skylar where are you? Sky…Sky can you hear me?" About 30 feet from the crash he noticed a white shoe sticking out of the brush. Beneath the brush lay Sky battered and bleeding. "Sky baby speak to me."
"Le…Leon what happened?"
"The car flipped. You were thrown from the car." He rested his hand on hers. "Don't move you might make things worse."
"We have to get out of here. The cops will swarm the place any minute."
"I don't give a shit. Don't fucking move." His voice was raised. "Who knows what you've broken inside?"
Brian walked over to them, "I've got to get a life flight in here. Leon you need to get out of here before I call it in."
"Not without me." Sky pulled herself into a seated position against Leon's objections. Slowly she got to her feet only to fall back down. Her left leg was severely broken. "Someone has to pick Dom and Vince up from the drop location and we still have to find Jesse. Leon you can't do both."
"And you can't drive with a broken leg." Leon helped her up from the ground and used his weight to steady her. "We're caught."
"Not necessarily." Brian chimed in. "Take the Civic back to the cars. Take Mia with you to drive for Sky and I'll stay here until the chopper picks up Letty."
Leon grabbed Brian's wrist, "Why are you helping us?"
"I don't know, but you better get going before I change my mind."
