New Royalty
Friday night at two in the morning Dom and his team rolled up to the races. As soon as Dom got out of his car everything went deadly silent.
"What'd I do?" he asked, using his hands for emphasis.
"Dom, man-where you been brotha?" Hector asked, walking up to Dom and punching his shoulder.
"Oh-you know, here and there." Dom said and everything resumed.
"You racin' tonight?" Hector asked.
"You know it." Dom said. Hector whistled as Ekena came up behind Dom and put his arm around her shoulder.
"You might not wanna do that, chica-Letty's gonna-" he began but Ekena interrupted.
"-be fine with it. The name's Ekena. I'm Dom's girl now." she said, sticking a hand out.
"Hector. I got a last name too, but I can't pronounce it." he said, shaking her hand.
"I'm racin' tonight, Hector. And I know just the thing to shake it up." she said as Dom put his arms around her waist.
"And what would that be, bonita?" Hector asked, smirking. She couldn't race if her life depended on it.
"Circuits." Ekena said and Hector's face fell.
"No way lady-you crazy." Hector said and Ekena made a sound like a dog who'd just been hit.
"Is Hector-wector afraid to run circuits with the big boys, hmm? Or is everyone here just a pussy?" she said. "Not including skanks, ladies, not including you." Ekena said, putting her hands up in defense.
"Fine-if you wanna play that way. Who's in for circuits?" Hector asked, not liking Ekena at the moment.
"I'm in." Ekena said.
"Me too." Suki said from behind her.
"Who're you?"
"No one of consequence to you." Suki said, eyes flashing.
"I'm in-I may as well try circuits." Dom said.
"You sure you wanna do this Dom?" Ekena asked. "After all-I don't wanna have to hand you your own ass."
"You're on." he said.
"We need a fourth." Ekena said.
"That would be me." said a voice and everyone turned to see an oriental woman standing there.
"And you are?"
"Skye Tran." Dom answered.
"Hello Dominic." Skye said, smirking. She glanced over the team seeing Letty(who was fuming), Mia, Vince, Suki and Roman. "Looks like you finally updated your motley crew. Too bad it was a downgrade." she said seductively. Letty nearly exploded as Vince and Mia held her back. "How ya been Letty? I see you dumped the loser-finally. Was it because of his stupidity or because he couldn't keep his hands to himself?"
"You just shut the FUCK up about shit like that, Tran. That's what landed your brother into the position he's in right now-"
"Six FUCKIN' feet under!" Letty yelled, finishing Dom's sentence.
"You need to keep a muzzle on your bitch, Torretto." Skye said calmly.
"You know what-"
"EVERYBODY JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP RIGHT FUCKIN' NOW! NO TALKING!" Ekena yelled as loud as she could. Dom started to protest. "Dominic-so help me god if you even utter a fully-formed word." she spat and he snapped his mouth shut. "Now-we're here to RACE not to bring the bullshit past you two share up. It's the past-I say screw it all to hell and let's do what we were born to do." she finished, getting into her car. "Oh-here's my money Hector-10 g buy in or slips." she said tossing him the money. Suki brought out her ten and Dom had no choice but to put up his slip-he didn't have anything else at the moment. Skye Tran put both her slip and ten g's up, confident she would win.
"Don't get too cocky, bitch." Ekena said quietly to Skye across the line up, which was her, Suki, Dom then Tran.
"On three-" Hector said waving his arms "-you go once around the block and come back here. First one back wins."
"Rapido, ese!" Suki yelled out the window, "Just start the race old man!"
"One."
Everyone pushed into first.
"Two."
They revved their engines.
"GO!" Hector yelled, dropping his arms.
The four of them sped off down the street. The order was Ekena and Suki tied for first, Skye in second and Dom was stuck in third as they rounded the first corner. Ekena shifted into second and pushed the gas, pulling ahead of Suki by a few inches.
"No way in hell, Suki. You couldn't beat me in Miami, you ain't beatin' me here." Ekena said as Suki began to ride up on her tail. "And if you ruin my paint job I'm gonna murder you!" Ekena said, rounding the second corner. She pushed into third and picked up the pace, slamming the gas pedal down. Suki was left in a cloud of smoke which parted to reveal Tran's car now coming up on Ekena's. Dom had just turned around the second corner, nearly ten car lengths behind Ekena.
Tran rode up on Ekena's car and tried to get around her but Ekena kept swerving.
"No fuckin' way are you winning Dom's car. No fuckin' way." Ekena said, shifting into fourth as she turned the third corner. Ekena's engine ground loudly from being overheated and Ekena cursed.
"SHIT!" she said as Tran shot past her. Ekena slammed her car into fifth and shot after her using her first shot of NOS(beautiful thing, NOS), catching up to Tran. As they both skidded around the last corner, Skye was forced outside and went too wide, making her car spin out of control and punch a nearby wall. Ekena looked in her mirror as the car smoked by the side of the road but she kept going until she screeched over the finish line to the chorus of applause. Everyone scrambled out of the way as she did a 180 and headed back towards Skye's car.
She may hate the bitch but she didn't wish death on her-not like this. Not even she deserved to die like this.
Ekena screeched to a halt a few feet away from the car, threw her door open and jumped from her car. She ran over to Skye's car, coughing in the smoke and shielding her eyes from the fire that was now burning on the car's hood, and began to tug on the door. She heard Suki's car scream by and Dom's followed soon after, screeching to halt.
"Dom! Come help me get her out!" Ekena yelled as she saw Dom get out of his car. She was tugging on the door as hard as she could and it wouldn't open.
"Why do you wanna save her, Ekena? She's a bitch." Dom asked, walking up.
"Why don't you want to save her, huh? I don't give a damn if she is your worst enemy-no one deserves to die like this, Dom." she said, still trying to open the door.
"Eke-"
"Dominic-YOU of ALL PEOPLE should know that no one-NO ONE-deserves to die like this! Now fucking help me!" she yelled. He came over angrily and tried the door before punching the window in and pulling an unconscious Skye out through the window.
"Put her over here." Ekena said and Dom dropped Skye on the ground like a rag doll. "Shit-she needs a doctor Dom. And soon-if she doesn't see one in the next twenty minutes she's dead." Ekena said. Dom reached down and grabbed Skye off the ground and put her in Ekena's car.
"Her blood is on your hands, Ekena-I want nothing to do with this." he said, walking to his car and screeching away. Suddenly, Skye's car exploded in a ball of fire and Ekena was thrown against her car, the heat scorching her back. She stumbled around her car and sat in the driver's seat, putting the A/C on full blast before heading away from the ball of fire that was once a car.
