Gabriella looked over at Vince, ushering him with her head to come over to her. He walked over to her with a smile on his face as he sat down next to her wrapping his arm across her shoulder. He had come back, why because he saved Mia's life. Reyes had see Mia in the marketplace, but Vince grabbed her just in time. Dom welcomed him back with open arms. It made Gabriella so happy to see her family back together again. She had truly missed him. He was just looking out for his own, that use to be her, but she was happy he had a life there in Brazil. She was happy for him. She loved that man. He was one of the greatest friends she had ever had.

"You doing okay?" He asked as she moved closer to him. She nodded her head but didn't speak. "You seem tense, talk to me girl tell me what's going?"

"I am just really tired Vince." She sighed.

"I am too girl." He ran his hand down her hair as she laid against him.

"They are tracking us aren't they?"

"Who?"

"You know who, don't play stupid." She leaned up. "Are we going to get caught before this even goes down?"

Vince didn't say anything. "I need everyone to listen up!" Dom yelled causing Gabriella and Vince to shoot up from the couch. Brian had a smile on his face as he looked over at Gabriella.

"What do you say we go for a race?" Brian asked. She cocked her head to the side and looked at him. "It's getting a little tense, we need to get this heat off of us. I think it's time for a little race."

"Hell yeah!" Roman yelled.

"It is a little stuffy in here." Tej smiled.

"You want to race me again?" Gabriella smiled. "You got your ass handed to you last time."

"Oh I think I can take you." Brian chuckled.

"You got it." Gabriella replied. "Let's go." She smiled at Harrison as he moved past him towards the room they were staying in. He followed right on her heels closing the door behind him.

"You have got to be kidding me right? You can't race him."

"Why not? We have been coped up in here working on all of this shit, it's about time we had some fun."

"Really?"

"Nothing is going to happen Harrison, please go have some fun with me. We will just sit around, we don't have to race." She slowly walked over to him wrapping her arms around his waist and looking up into his eyes. "Come spend time with me in Brazil."

"You always do that." He replied softly leaning down kissing her on the lips.

"Let's go you two!" Vince banged on the door. She knew he was laughing on the other end knowing he scared them. She groaned as she jerked the door open. "You ready?"

"You are so annoying." She growled walking past him. They all moved together towards their cars. It was a Saturday night Rio and Gabriella knew the race scene was already alive. She couldn't wait to get back into the action. She patted her legs as she waited for Harrison to climb into the driver's seat of the car.

"Oh wow, I get to drive?" He asked.

"Start the car!" She yelled. He began to laugh as he started the car and followed in behind everyone as they made their way to the scene. She was excited, she couldn't contain herself as she patted her legs again.

"You are crazy you know that?" Harrison smirked. He pressed down harder on the gas as the car shot forward. Gabriella had a smile on her face the entire time.

"Hey Romeo, lets slow it down!" Brian yelled into the walkie talkie.

"Oh yeah, I forgot we had these." Harrison replied holding it in the air. He pressed down on the brake at the car began to slow down. Gabriella winked at him as the car pulled up next to the one Han was driving.

"So Mia wants to go to Spain when this is over." Gabriella didn't move from the seat.

"Spain?"

She nodded her head. "She wants us to go with her and Brian and I told her that it would be a good idea to be with them. You know you get to spend some time with your brother and I…well I just get to be free."

"I told you, I would go anywhere with you. If its Spain, then so be it."

Gabriella slowly walked through the crowd as she looked at all the different people that showed up. Dom was next to her, there was no way he was letting her out of his sight. She knew that. She clung to Harrison's hand as the moved into opening. "Yo!" He was Spanish. "Dominic Toretto, didn't think that I would see you again." They slapped hands as Gabriella looked over at Brian who had a smile on his face.

"Brian took his cars from him." Harrison whispered in her ear. Gabriella shook her head as she moved behind her brother, beside Brian.

"Victor." Brian nodded his head.

"You have a lot of nerve coming here with cops down your back." Victor replied.

"We need your help. We need to get them off our backs." Brian told him. "Will you help us?"

"You know I will man." Victor looked over at Gabriella who was still looking around. "And who is this?"

"Not yours." Harrison replied moving Gabriella behind him.

Victor began to laugh. "Quién es este idiota?" (who is this idiot)

"Un idiota que sabe español maldito!" Harrison moved forward (An idiot who knows fucking Spanish)

Dom began to laugh. "Come down, she is my sister. My baby sister to be exact."

"That's all you had to say mio." Victor laughed. The crowd around them laughed with him. Gabriella grabbed Harrison's arm pulling him back to her.

"You make fun of me for not knowing Spanish and this whole time you know it?" Gabriella smirked.

"I was letting you do your thing."

She was trying to get his mind off the anger that was building up as Victor kept on talking. She rubbed her hands down both of his arms and stared at him in the eyes. She noticed from the corner of her eye that Victor was staring at her so she did what she needed to do. She kissed him. And it was a peck on the lips, she really kissed him. "Ohhhh!" The crowd began as she pulled away with a laugh. She covered her mouth as Harrison smiled, waving his hand.

"Thank you." He whispered kissing her on the side of the head.

"Are we racing or what?" Victor asked.

"What do you say Gab, you want to race?" Brian asked. She looked up at Harrison before shaking her head.

"You go ahead, show them what you are made of. I am going to sit this one out."

She hated moments like these, the cops just inches away from taking them in, but Dom and Brian looked calm. She tightened her grip on Harrisons hand as Hobbs walked towards him. She had heard about him. Brian talked about him, he good. He always brought who he needed to in. She swallowed hard as she glared ahead.

"Hey Toretto, you're under arrest." Hobbs spat. Guns were drawn. This wasn't good. This didn't feel right.

"I don't feel like I'm under arrest." Dom replied looking over at Brian. "How about you Brian?"

"No, not a bit. Not even a little bit." They were both calm. Super calm. She couldn't explain the look on their faces as they leaned against the cars with their arms crossed over their chest. It was like they had no worries in the world.

"Oh just give it a minute, it will sink in." Hobbs was playing along. Gabriella looked at the woman with them. She looked familiar. She looked scared to death.

"We didn't kill those feds. That was Reyes." Brian replied.

"I don't give a shit. I'm just here to bring two assholes whose names hit my desk."

"Yeah, that sounds like a real hero." Brian spat. Gabriella rolled her eyes and looked at Harrison who just shrugged his shoulders.

"That's funny. From a guy who took the oath of a cop, then went against everything it stood for, for some wannabe tough guy prick who beat a man half to death with a socket wrench. Yeah, real tough. You turn around and put your hands behind your back." That was a low blow.

"I don't think so." Dom still didn't move.

"Your mistake is thinking you have a goddamn choice, boy!" Hobbs moved forward with his hands on his vest.

Dom stood up from car. "And your mistake? Thinking you're in America. You're a long way from home." That's when Gabriella realized what was going on. He had the whole town in on this. Everyone moved forward as Dom held his hands in the air. "This is Brazil!" Guns were drawn. Gabriella let out a sigh of relief. She watched Hobbs, trying to figure out what he was going to do. He nodded his head as one of his men talked to him. "I'll see you around." He spat before turning around, but the blonde stayed. That's when Gabriella noticed, she was wearing Letty's necklace. She moved forward with a questioning look. Why the hell did she have on Letty's necklace? The blonde moved away and with that she was gone.

"What the hell was she wearing?" Gabriella yelled in Dom's face.

"I was wondering the same damn thing." He snarled. "I'm about to go find out."

Vince sat down next to a very exhausted Gabriella wrapping his arms around her shoulder just like before. She was so tired but she refused to sleep until Dom came back. The guys, meaning Brian, Tej, Roman, Han, and Dom all went to get better cars. The track that she came up with just wasn't cutting. The turns, all the cars were being seen in just one camera. They need to be invisible. What's invisible? Cop cars. Gabriella didn't speak a word when they show that idea in the air, she just walked away. That's when she found herself in Vince's arms again. He opted to stay with her while Harrison road along.

"What are your plans?" Vince asked her.

"For what?"

"After tomorrow is over and we actually pull this job off, what do you plan on doing? You staying here?"

She didn't answer. "Gab…"

"Mia asked me to go to Spain with her and Brian. I told her I would."

He nodded his head. "I want you to know this before all of this shit happens tomorrow…"

"Vince-"

"No!" He raised his voice. "You have always been my life. I didn't want to leave you Gab, I didn't know what else to do. That is the only way that I knew to keep you safe and out of this. You are one of the best things that has come into my life. I love you so much."

"I love you too Vince."

"I never wanted you to feel betrayed at all."

She bowed her head. "You could never make me hate you Vince. I could never hate you. You have been in my life for so long. She are the greatest friend I have ever had. I just don't want you to live this life anymore V. You need to stop. You have a baby now. Just stop, take this money and just settle down with Rosa and Niko…you deserve to happy."

He bowed his head as the tears filled up his eyes. "I will always love you for the rest of my life." She told him. "Who knows, maybe we will be neighbors one day."

"I am going to get you home Gab, I promise."

She nodded her head as she wrapped her arms around his body. The sound of engines caught their attention. They were back. She hopped up off the couch and slowly walked over to everyone. "Well, I gotta say I didn't think you could pull it off, but you did."

"Oh that we did." Han replied with a smile. "It was a piece of cake."

Gabriella shook her head. "What's his problem?" she pointed to Brian who looked confused.

"Oh, Dom let him win in the race we just had. I guess he is a little upset about it." Han tossed chips into his mouth.

Gabriella began to laugh. "A baby gift huh?"

"Shutup!" Brian yelled. She moved out of his reach as she ran over to Harrison wrapping her arms around him. They had all became a family. All of them. Though she didn't know many of them very well, she trusted them. Tomorrow was going to show just how much of a family they were. They were going to take down the most powerful man in Rio. They were going to cripple him by taking all of his money. They were going to do this, or they were going to die trying.

The day started pretty early for everyone. They had to be exact on how they were going to do first team would head out, then Dom and Brian would follow, leaving Mia behind to help navigate through the traffic. They have to be precise. There couldn't be any mistakes. "You want to ride with me?" Han asked. Gabriella looked over at Dom, then at Brian.

"Fine." Dom rolled his eyes. "Just don't-"
"Don't be stupid with her!" Brian finished Dom's sentence. "Harrison is going to be our detail on the ground."

"Let's go!" Dom yelled twirling his hand around.

"Bye Vince, I'll see you when this over!" Gabriella hugged him but he didn't respond as she skipped to the car with Han. She watched as her boyfriend walked over with her. He was dressed a police officer. She looked at him and licked her lips.

"Stop it." He pointed his finger at her. She couldn't help but bite her bottom lip. "Gab…"

"GO!" Dom yelled. She jumped from the scare but then climbed into the backseat of the car. They were off. She looked in the mirror behind her as she drove away from her family. This was it. There wasn't any going back now. They were in this….every single one of them.

"Gab-run!" The walkie talkie was static. "Gabri—la, run!"

"Dom!" She yelled into the radio. "Are you there?"

"Yo! Shit just got real. Hobb's just pulled up on Dom and Brian man." Roman was on the radio.

Gabriella shot up in the seat. "DOM!" She screamed into the radio. "DOM! Answer me!"

"We have to go back for them!" Harrison yelled.

"DOM!" Gabriella screamed again. "PLEASE!" It was static. He had cut it off. "NO!" She banged her hands on the dashboard as hard as she could. "This isn't happening. This isn't happening." She sobbed. "We have to go back to them."

Han continued to stare straight ahead. He didn't look over at her. "HAN!" She yelled. "Please, I can't lose them again." The tears flowed down her face. "Oh my God."

"Yo!" Han had ripped the radio from her hands. "Let's go back. We need to go back."

Gabriella shook her head giving him a silent thank you. He stopped the car in the middle of the road and spun it around turning into the opposite direction. They were headed back to the warehouse. Gabriella prayed they weren't too late.

The car ride was fast but not fast enough. They were gone. Gabriella sprinted through the door to find the place torn apart. And Dom's charger….she bowed her head as she felt her knees give out of her. "We were too late." She cried. "They are gone."

"Gab…" Harrison whispered.

"We need to go. We can't be here anymore." Roman replied.

"He's right, we can't stay here. We are sitting ducks." Tej joined in. She knew the deal. If something were to happen, they were to get out of there as fast as they could. She nodded her head as the tears streamed down her face. "We need to clear this place out. Take everything we can carry and delete everything that we know. We can't exist right now. The heat is going to be on us hotter than ever."

"Stay right there baby, I will grab our stuff." Harrison told her. She put her face in her hands.

"I can't do this." She sobbed. Han knelt down next to her moving the hair from her face. "I just got them back."

"We will see them again, I promise."

She shook her head. "There's no getting out of this." She shook her head. She wiped her face of the tears as he helped her off the floor. She patted his hand letting him know she was okay. She had to be strong now. She couldn't break down. Not now. They still had work to do. They had to run now. She followed Harrison as they packed their bag full before moving into the opening. The door closed as Gabriella looked up. Mia was first. Her face was stained from tears. Gabriella felt the bag give on her arm as it fell to the floor. "MIA!" She screamed running towards her. She wrapped her around her neck and sobbed.

"Ga—bby." Mia sobbed. "I'm so sorry."

"Why?"

"Gabriella." Brian moved towards her. She gave a soft smile wrapping her arms around his waist. "What happened? Where is Dom?"

That's when she heard it. The grunting. The struggling. She looked behind her as Dom was struggling to keep Vince on his feet. There was blood everywhere. "No." She gasped. She fell down to the ground as Dom laid him on the couch. "Vince!"

"Stop. Stop." Dom grabbed her but she pushed him away.

"We have to go, we have to get him to a hospital Dom." She sobbed. She looked up at her brother who turned his back to her. No one was moving. "WE HAVE TO GO!" She screamed. "MOVE!" She shoved her brother's back.

"No." Vince groaned. "You can't."

"Vince." She sobbed. She fell down to the ground again grabbing his arm. "You fight this okay. You fight this."

"I love you."

"No." She shook her head. "Please. Fight this. You lived before, do it again."

He smiled at her. "You are so beautiful." He rubbed his hand down her face. She touched his hand as it laid on her face. He closed his eyes as she began to shake him.

"No…NO!" She screamed shaking his shoulders. "Vince! Wake up! Please, you have to wake up!"

Dom grabbed her arms moving her away from Vince's body. She shoved his stomach trying to get away but he held her tightly. The sobs didn't stop. It was the cry that only the hurt knew about. The cry that only the people who have lost too much already knew. She stopped fighting him wrapping her arms around his waist. He was gone. Just like that, she lost one of the greatest friends she had ever had. She lost someone that was literally like a brother to her. He saw her through her worst and he saw her through her best. In a blink of an eye, he was gone. There would be no funeral this time. There would be no real time for mourning.

Gabriella didn't wait around as Dom moved Vince's body from the couch onto the table, where he pulled the sheet over his head. She walked outside and slid down the back of the wall putting her head in her hands. Harrison was next to her, he hadn't left her side the entire morning. She felt his hand on hers as she lifted her head.

"Dom had gotten arrested back when I was sixteen years old. My father had just died and Dom was just pissed…Vince had to be the man of the house and I hated Dom for that. I wanted to kill him for giving Vince the authority to tell me what to do. But he was perfect. He took care of me like I was his flesh and blood. I caused him so much grief during that time but he didn't care. He still loved me and he still protected me." She wiped her face of the tears. "He never let me be alone when he knew that I needed someone there. I would kick and scream, but he wouldn't budge. He was the true definition of a best friend and now he is gone." She bowed her head. "What am I supposed to do without him?"

Harrison shook his head. "You know this whole time, I have been thinking, why hasn't it been me?"

"No."

"No, you know. They all keep protecting me. They all have been risking their lives, but here I am living it up in Brazil. I wasn't running. Dom, Brian, and Mia, they have been running this whole time. I keep losing the people that I love and I can't take this anymore." She sobbed. He brought her into his arms.

"Gab…" Brian slowly walked outside. "Harrison, I need a minute with her. Go inside and get the details from Roman."

Harrison kissed Gabriella's hand as he lifted himself off the ground. "You okay out here?" Brian asked. She shook her head. She felt his body next to hers as he sat down. "We need to talk."

"About what?"

"We are staying. It was Reyes' men that showed up and killed Vince. The truck was ambushed. We were overpowered…." She nodded her head. "Hobbs is going to help us. They just killed his entire team."

"What are you getting at Brian?"

"We are staying Gab. We are going on with the plan."

"We should be running."

"I agree but we are broke. We have no money. We need to do this."

She nodded her head. "I will stay with Mia this time."

"I think that's a good idea."

She turned her head away from him. "I am so sorry about Vince. I know…"

"No." She sobbed. "Please don't."

He brought her into his arms and kissed the top of her head. "You are going to be okay. We all are. Stay strong just a little bit longer."

"I will Brian."

AN: So the saddest thing just happened in this story. She lost her one true best friend. I was thinking about keeping him alive but then thought it would make for a great chapter if he died like he did in the movies. I'm sorry guys! I hope you all enjoyed this chapter! HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
