Thank you all for the reads and review :) Sorry, it's taken me a while to update. I've been a little busy and I really wasn't sure what direction I wanted to take this story. But here it is. A new chapter. Enjoy :)

Letty's POV

Its 2:20am when Dom's phone goes off and he reaches for it.

"Hello?" he answers groggily. "What?…Now?...Ugh…Okay…We'll be there…We'll be there." he hangs up and throws his arm over his eyes and lets out a deep sigh.

"Who was that?" I ask so I know whose ass to kick in the morning for waking me up.

"Hobbs. We got to go down there, he has something on Shaw." he groans but keep one open eye on me.

"Deckard?"

"Owen." hearing that my eyelids fly wide open and my heart begins to pound. I hoped I would never have to deal with him again. He reminds me too much of my past and the awful things we did.

I jump out of bed and start to throw some pants on.

"Letty?" I don't answer. I don't even realized he's called my name. "Letty?" Again, no response. I'm too busy running around the room trying to get my head together.

I reach down to pull my boots on when I feel Dom's strong arms around me. I stiffen for a moment before he whispers in my ear.

"Letty, you're fine. Everything is going to be okay. That's not you anymore. It never was." It amazes me how he can almost read my mind. I turn to face him. He takes my face in his hands. "Are you going to be okay?"

I had to take a second to think that one over. Would I be okay? Could I handle this again? Could I face this man? After thinking it over, I come to the conclusion that I could and would do this. This man took and hide my identity from me. Made me become someone I'm not and threatened my family. I will do whatever it takes to make sure he rots in hell. Whether that be in prison or in a hospital bed.

"I'm okay Dom. We got this." I take one of his large hands in mine to reassure him.

Making it down to headquarters everyone is already there besides Nat and Adrien. Which I'm happy about. She doesn't need to get into this.

"Not that I'm not happy to see ya'll, but considering the time and I just saw your asses a few hours ago, can we please get this moving?" Tej asks rubbing a hand over his tired face.

Hobbs starts passing files out to everyone at the table. "Last night someone took Owen Shaw from his hospital room. Surveillance cameras show Deckard rotting away in his cell all night, were he should be. Leaving us with no suspects and a shit storm in their wake. Three nurses dead, and two in critical condition. We need to find out who did this and why?"

"Can't we just use the God's Eye?" asks Roman like it's the most obvious solution.

"No. That was a one-time deal. Unless the government feels an immediate threat, which given the circumstances of Shaw's health, they don't believe this will escalate any further. But we know that's a load of shit so let's get to work." he explains.

"Did you say Shaw?" I hear Adrien ask walking in from around the corner Nat at his side. Damn it! Why are they even here?

I open my both to protest but Nat's face is already set on mine daring me to say the words. For the first time in my life I back down, knowing this isn't a fight I'm going to win.

"You know him?" Hobbs asks arms folded across his chest

"Him? No I can assure you Vivian Shaw is no man. But you wouldn't know that by asking around. You know how they say New York never sleeps? She's the reason it stays up. She runs everything up there." Nat explains.

"She look like this?" Hobbs asks pulling up a photo from the brothers files.

"That's her." she confirms pointing to the screen.

"Damn it. If she took him, she's planning something big." Adrien informs us, running his hands over his face.

"Then you better get started. Start weapons training, get your cars customized and up and running. We're gonna be ready for these sons of bitches this time." and with a quick nod he was gone.

"Why are you guys down here?" I can't hold my tongue.

"Hobbs called. Said you might need extra hands." she said while sarcastically doing spirit fingers.

"Nat, could I talk to you for a second?" her eyes flicker from mine to Dom's. she shrugs her shoulders and I watch as Dom and Nat make their way out of the room. Before they go, I notice Adrien squeeze Nat's hand and she reciprocates the gesture almost in reassurance. Adrien lets go but keeps a close eye on them.

Dom's POV

"So? What's up?" Nat asks, hand in the pockets of her green utility jacket. There's a slight breeze blowing the fly away hairs around her face.

"You shouldn't be here. You and Adrien need to go?"

"You're shitting me right?" I look at her assuring her I'm not. "Why?"

"It's too dangerous. You don't belong here." I tell her walking away praying to God she turns around and leaves and doesn't look back.

"Bullshit." and of course she doesn't. "I've been pulling jobs and holding it down at the races since I was 14. I can handle myself just fine. Not that you'd know."

"What does that mean exactly? What are we talking about Natty?" I turn to face her. She stands tall shaking her head in disbelief.

"You never even called me Dom. How could you not ask for my help?"

Now I really have no idea what she's going on about.

"With this? I just found out about myself?" I wouldn't have called her anyways. But thanks to Hobbes here we are.

"No with Letty, Dom. It was hard enough to stand alone at her funeral, but you didn't even call me to tell me there was a chance she was alive. I had to find out for myself." I meant to. I did. But when I heard that Letty had been murdered but mind instantly became consumed with who did it and why.

"Did you know that Dom? Did you know I was in London and ran into my supposedly dead sister on the street? She had no idea who I was. Do you get how hard that was for me? Then you go and gather this team, that didn't even know her. To what? Come save her? What about me Dom? Or did I not matter?"

"Does Letty know?" If Letty knew she hadn't recognized her own sister it would devastate her. Not recognizing "our" family was hard enough on her. She doesn't need the added guilt.

"No. I'm not an idiot."

"If you ran into her chances are you knew before we did."

"So that's your excuse?"

"Natty even if I had known, I just wanted to believe you weren't going to follow in our footsteps. That you would become better. I didn't want you getting dragged into shit because of my mistakes."

"I'm guessing you've used that line before and it starting to sound pretty old."

"Nat. I loved you so much. I still do, and I didn't want to jeopardize your safety. I had no idea what you were up to. And yes, I should have checked up on you. But I didn't want to have to influence you. I thought if you were doing well, why ruin it? And if you weren't, I didn't want you doing something reckless over something I wasn't sure of. I just I wanted so much more for you, so did Letty."

"Ha-ha. So what? I didn't live up to your standards?" she said it like I had just offended her whole existence.

"No. I'm not saying…."

"No. I'm glad you said that Dom. Cause you don't even believe the words that are coming out of your mouth. All those years I listened to you drill Mia about how she was better than this life. That she didn't belong here, and you meant every word. You know why? Because it was true. You knew it, she knew it, hell we all knew it. But this life, all of this, this is who I am. This is all I know. This is exactly where you knew, where we all knew I'd end up. I'll prove it. I'll make you a deal. If you could look me in the eyes right now and truly, with every ounce of your being, tell me I don't belong here, I'll walk away."

I stood there and looked at her so full of determination and in the end I couldn't do it. She was right. I knew it from the start. Every day I saw her in the garage I knew it. We all did. I feared the day it would come I just hoped it never would.

"I can't. I'm sorry." I whisper, defeated looking down at my shoes. Disappointed knowing she was here to staying. Disappointed that I couldn't keep her safe. From this point forward she was part of the team and had to handle the baggage that came with it.

I feel her hand on my shoulder soft and comforting. "I forgive you. But I'm not going anywhere."

"Yea. I know."

"I'm sorry too."

"For what? Having feelings?"

"That and for being a pain in the ass lately. I know you guys weren't here for a lot. so it's probably just as hard on you as it has been for me. But the good news is I'm not usually this person. It's just a lot of things I'm dealing with after brushing it under the rug for so long."

"I get it. Believe me. You and your sister are more alike than you realize." She smiles.

"So? We're good right?"

As much as I didn't want to be. "Yea. We're good." she squeals with excitement and gives me a giant hug, before jogging back inside. But right before she reaches the door she turns back to me.

"And uhh… Dom… Thanks."

I nod and follow her inside.

Hope you liked this chapter. If you did or even if you didn't leave me a review or send me a PM telling me what to keep or change, and what you'd like to read in the chapters ahead.
