Brian felt the ambulance as it moved, taking him to the hospital. The pain in his shoulder was gone, leaving only the feeling of numbness and cold in its wake. He couldn't break himself out of the half consciousness that he was in, no matter how hard he fought the pull of the blackness that tried to pull him in. It was getting harder to breath, and he knew that he might not make it to the hospital, but he would try to hold on anyway.

Tanner watched as Brian's eyes half opened and breathed a sigh of relief seeing the blue eyes. He knew that Brian could still die, but he also knew that at least Brian was fighting it now, and when Brian fought, he fought; giving no ground to anyone. He looked down at the young man who was one of the brightest cops that he had ever worked with and sighed, knowing that even if Brian did live, that he was going to jail.

Brian was struggling to draw in breath and the paramedics that were working on him were almost ready to sedate him and put him on a respirator to help him breath, and to make sure that he would injure himself more. Brian's eyes, though half lidded were wild looking, almost searching for reassurance that he could draw the next breath, but Tanner had no guarantee that the young man could, and just tried to keep an encouraging expression on his face, as he held Brian's softly squeezing hand, having no strength left to tighten his grip any more than that.

Tanner jerked when a loud crash sounded outside of the ambulance and the vehicle slid to the side of the road. The older officer looked down to Brian as he took out his gun and saw the confusion showing in the glazed azul depths. He didn't have time to reassure Brian, as the ambulance jerked again and the whole thing went sideways, tilting and then finally landing on its side. Brian was still strapped into the stretcher and cried out as even though the stretcher was locked in to the floor, his whole body slammed against the binds that held him in place.

Tanner tried to get to Brian to see if there was anymore damage, but the back doors opened and standing there was the Tran family, guns pointed at all of their heads. Tanner froze, trying to think of a plan but his mind came up black, and he knew that Brian was in trouble when Johnny and Lance started to unlock the stretcher and pull it out.

The guns were still pointed at their heads and Tanner knew from reputation that the Tran's were trigger happy, so he stayed right where he was, knowing that he couldn't help Brian if he was dead. Brian was unstrapped and Johnny and Lance carried him away; but he could hear the moans and little cries of pain every time the man was moved in the wrong way; and he knew that as soon as he got the chance he was going to kill those two men.

Johnny Tran smirked as he saw the blond cop that had shot him almost two months ago. He was going to pay dearly for all the crap his family had to go through, and if he got his wish, so would Toretto.

Johnny looked up at an older man who had been in the ambulance with Brian, and said; "Tell Toretto that if he wants blondie here to live, to go to the 'usual' place." He walked away, smirking as he heard the string of curses that came out of the man's mouth at the name Toretto. Dom just seemed to have that effect on people, that and a gravity that pulled every stray to him.

Johnny and Lance strapped Brian to the seat in a Black Mazda RX-8, and laughed when the man feebly tried to get free; his weak struggles causing sounds of pain to escape through his clenched teeth. The man didn't look in too good of health already and they were only going to make his pain worse. He had to pay for what he had done, especially to his family's honor.

Johnny got in the driver's side of the Mazda as Lance went to the midnight blue GMC Sierra that they had used to push the ambulance off the road. He started the car and drove off all the while laughing. He was going to have so much fun; though granted he would probably have to let Brian heal up some, before he could do anything drastic, but it was a small price for the revenge that he so well deserved.

Tanner took Brian's cell phone and looked through the numbers that he had on his calling list. He saw the name Roman Pierce on the list, and decided to try and get a hold of him first to see if he knew where Toretto was, because he was running from the law too. He didn't have enough time to set up a trace on the number, but just called the man that he had known so well when Brian had been younger.

"'Yello?" A deep voice asked on the other end after three rings.

"Roman Pierce?" Tanner asked, holding his breath and praying he was right.

"Who wants to know?" The man asked, and Tanner laughed, knowing it was Pierce.

"Nick Tanner that's who you little shit." He heard the man growl and then burst out laughing. "Do you know where Toretto is?" Tanner asked, tentatively, and heard the abrupt end to the laughing on the other end. "I just need to know if he is there, I don't need to know where you are. C'mon Rome, it's for Brian's sake." Tanner knew he had hit a nerve when he heard the sharp intake of breath on the other end.

"What's wrong with Brian?" Rome growled.

"I can't get into that right now, I need to talk to Toretto, or Brian might not live." That struck just the right cord and Tanner heard the phone being handed to another man.

"What happened to Brian?" Dominic Toretto's voice asked; low and menacing in every right of the word.

"Johnny and Lance just kidnapped him," Tanner said, and heard the soft line of curses leave Toretto's mouth on the other end of the phone.

"What did they say?" Dom asked, his voice full of regret.

"They want you to meet them at the 'usual' place, if you don't they're gonna kill Brian." Tanner knew the man had heard him, but he also heard the phone hit a hard floor, and crackle then go dead. Tanner had a thought at that moment and knew he was right, Toretto was gonna kill Tran.
