Packing Heat

Chapter 12 Dom's POV

"Man, I can't fucking believe this. Try to be a nice guy and help this Roman punk and look where it gets me; fucking county lock up!" Edwin ranted and I just sat there listening. "How the fuck can you guys just sit there? We should be beatin' this bald fuck senseless!" Edwin continued to rant.

"Oh shut up and sit your ass down!" I finally exclaimed, having heard enough.

I turned to Brian, "What the hell is taking Taylor so long? I can't believe she went after Lance like that; I should've killed that fucker when I had the chance."

"Chill Dom, Taylor can handle herself, you know that. She'll be here to get us." Brian answered.

"Wait…what do you mean she'll be here to get us? How the fuck is she gonna be able to get us out? I know for a fact that four of us are wanted men." Edwin continued to run his mouth.

Brian looked at me as if asking if we should fill him in, I nodded my head. Brian then looked up at Edwin, "My sister is an FBI agent and we're working with them to find Mia. The Trans have her." He briefly explained.

Edwin looked from me to Brian then turned his stare to Jesse, "You mean the whole time you and Mia were bringing her to races, she was a fed?" Jesse nodded his head.

Edwin was about to say something else when a deputy walked up and opened our holding cell, "Alright Toretto, transport is here for you and your boys. Come on."

The officer cuffed us as we walked to the door of the cell. "Transport to where?" I asked; a little confused.

"Bureau headquarters; they said you guys were working on a case with them." The officer explained. I didn't question it anymore, I knew it was Taylor.

The officer escorted us down the hall back to booking. As we rounded the corner I saw Taylor standing at a desk, looking rather irritated. "Alright Agent Vaughn, here are the guys you're supposed to be picking up. You want me to take off the cuffs or leave them?" The skinny officer asked.

Taylor cocked her head to the side; "I think you better leave them; just in case they start feeling frisky." Taylor stated as she grabbed Brian by the arm and pulled him to her, "You see that red Escalade out front?" She asked and Brian quickly nodded his head then she continued, "Well if you or any of your friends try anything, I'll make the inside match the color on the outside!"

It took everything I had not to bust out laughing as she pushed Brian toward the door. Everyone filed in behind him starting with Roman then Edwin, Leon, Jesse and me bringing up the end of the line. Taylor fell in behind me and I slowed down.

Suddenly I felt her hand on the back of my head as she roughly shoved me forward, "Get your ass in gear Baldy!" She hissed and I snapped my head around and glared at her, squinting my eyes as I pulled air in through my clenched teeth, "Umm, do it again." I whispered under my breath and Taylor tried her best to keep a straight face as an officer loaded the guys into the Escalade.

How we managed to pile six grown men in her escalade is beyond me but we somehow got four of the guys in the backseat and shoved Edwin in the back. We got about two blocks from the cop shop and Taylor tossed me the keys to the cuffs, "Taylor, I don't know what the hell you were thinking but you can't just go after these guys by yourself!" I exclaimed as I removed my cuffs and handed the keys to Brian then I added, "So what took you so damn long to get here?"

"Well I had to switch vehicles. I don't think the seven of us could've piled on my bike. Plus I had a nice little chat with Benny's cousin Lance!" Taylor replied.

I looked out the window and watched as we passed the turn off that lead to the safe house, "Taylor, where are you going?" I asked.

"We're taking Edwin, Jesse and Leon to get the cars. Leon can drive mine back to your place." She explained.

"What about me?" Roman asked as he handed the keys back to Taylor.

"Well Ro, if you're up for it, you can go with us. Has anyone filled him in on what's going on?" Taylor asked and Brian immediately began filling Roman in on what was going down. Brian didn't tell him everything; Roman basically got the fast and furious version.

I turned to Taylor, "So he's going where with us exactly?" I asked.

"The marina. Lance said Benny has Mia on a boat there and we're going to see if ol' Lance was being straight with me or if he was just trying to keep me from blowing his head off." Taylor explained and I started to feel that huge knot in my stomach again.

It seemed like every time I closed my eyes; all I could see was Benny's hands all over my sister. 'I'll kill him! I'll break every fuckin' bone in his body!' I thought to myself as I felt my blood boiling.

We pulled into what looked to be a personal impound lot. It surely didn't look like it had anything to do with the police. "Whose place is this and how did the cars get here?" I asked looking at Taylor.

"This place used to belong to my ex until his untimely demise and I took it over, using it as a garage. I got to the two trucks before they left the scene and told them to bring the cars here." Taylor explained as she pulled forward just enough to tap the gate with her front bumper causing it to swing open.

As Taylor pulled to a stop, she turned around in her seat, "Edwin, it might be wise for you to head back to Toretto's place with Leon and Jes. Believe it or not but it's probably the only place you'll be safe from 5-0; they'll be looking for these cars when they don't show up at their lot." Taylor stated.

Edwin smiled and winked at her, "What ever you say Agent Vaughn!" He stated as he climbed out through the back window.

Jesse climbed out the left side of the truck and headed to his car as Leon paused in the back seat, "I really think I should go with you guys." Leon stated.

Before I had a chance to say no, Taylor broke in, "I really think you should go take care of Jesse. Going after the Trans without the Bureau behind us, isn't exactly the best idea I've ever had, if you catch my drift. If this doesn't go down the way we want it to, Jesse's gonna need you." She stated whole-heartedly and Leon simply nodded and took her car keys out of her hand as he slid out of the truck.

Before Leon headed to Taylor's car, he stuck his head through her window, "Take care of my boy, will ya? He tends to get in over his head." Leon stated and Taylor returned his nod.

The four of us sat there and watched the guys pull out of the lot then Brian finally asked what the rest of us were thinking, "So Sis, what's the plan? We can't exactly go in there unarmed."

I watched as Taylor reached between my knees and pulled a black duffle bag out from under my seat and dropped it in my lap.

"What's this?" I asked as she proceeded to turn the truck around in the lot.

"My plan." She simply stated and I unzipped the bag.

"Holy sheep shit!" I stated as I pulled an AK-47 out of the bag.

I looked in the bag and was completely shocked, "Where'd all of this come from if Lopez doesn't know what we're up to?" I asked as I peered in at about 15 or 20 guns inside.

"They're from my personal collection." Taylor replied with a grin as she pulled back onto the highway and headed toward the marina.

By the time we made it to the outside of the gate leading into the marina, all four of us were strapped to the hilt with at least 5 weapons apiece. 'Are we really going to need all this shit?' I thought to myself as I once again checked my stash. Not only did we have automatic weapons but smoke bombs and tranq guns as well. Taylor had brought anything and everything she thought might be of some use.

"Alright, here's the plan…I want Roman outside the gate. Brian, I want you right at the end of the pier and Dom, you come with me. If nothing else, I just want to make sure she's ok." Taylor instructed.

"No Tay. I don't want to wait at the end of the pier; I want to see that Mia is ok!" Brian demanded with a hiss.

"Look Brother, you're days as a cop are over; I'm running things now and I think if you go with us you'll let your emotions get the best of and blow this whole fuckin' op. You're staying at the end of the pier unless I call for you." Taylor commanded as she handed Brian and Roman a 2-way.

We got out and snaked our way through the gate, making sure we kept ourselves low until we reached the dock. Brian found himself a dark corner to hide in and Taylor and I were about to make our way down the wooden pier as Brian grabbed Taylor's arm, "Taylor, be careful and… please bring her back to me."
