We sped off into the darkness that surrounded the military base.

Not far behind Shaw's ass now. What the hell was he planning?…Where the hell was he going? it was a fucking army base…nowhere to go but… up?

Just then a fucking cargo plane flew right over us and touched ground just feet away from Shaw and his crew. The cargo door down.

Dam it! If I had only known what he was planning, He had always kept me in the dark about everything ….on a need to know basis. Asking for more than was needed to do your job was dangerous. I now realized that I had been nothing but bait….If Shaw got away…Mia…

She's as good as dead if Shaw gets away on that plane! I had to warn them. Shaw would disappear forever and of Mia nothing would remain.

Dom looked over at Brian who was riding shot gun, then looked back at me.

Then we don't let him get away!…he said. That "WE" ..it felt good. Adrenaline pumped through my body and I knew failure was not an option…we would do for Mia what they had done for me.

Up ahead we could see Shaw's car making its way up the cargo ramp.

Ride or Die! Dom said looking at Brian

Ride or Die! Brian replied…..the words touched me. There was so much meaning behind them. This is what they lived by…their way of saying…it was all or nothing.

Ride or die, I thought to myself, sounds good to me. They had come here risking it all for me….They never gave up on me even why I seemed to have been lost forever….and that was something worth dying for.

Don pushed pedal to the metal and we were flying up the ramp. The rest of the crew on either side of the plane. They would do whatever it took to keep the plane grounded.

I heard a loud thump and saw Riley bounce of the hood of the car and down the back….that bitch deserved that and everything that was coming to her…..if she was still breathing her ass was mine.

Dom and Brian got out of the car first…shots rang out immediately

As they went after Shaw and muscles. I headed back were I had seen Riley go down.

That bitch came out of nowhere…..she grabbed me and we struggled over my gun, shots rang out as she was able to maneuver her way around to take it…it was pointed at me know…..Fuck! this is not how I go out, I thought to myself. she pulled the trigger…but the clip was empty and the gun fell to the ground. I was one lucky bitch and it was time for her ass to meet my fists.

I launched myself at her .. punched her in her jaw…she came at my with some karate bullshit and knocked me to the ground.

Tell them to take off..! I heard Shaw yelling in the background…..the plane shook as it tried to get some air.

I had to get rid of this bitch and fast. I didn't know what the fuck was going on. I had to get to Dom.

This girl kept coming at me hard. She had me by the neck now pushed against the wall…..if I could only reach the emergency door…..I could send her to hell once and for all.

I managed to kick her to the ground and get loose…I opened the door and watched it blow away. She must have had the same idea….she stood up and came straight at me. I moved away from the door hoping that she would go flying out …her one-way ticket out of this world.

…but this bitch had a different plan for today and it didn't include dying…she held on to the sides of the door and was able to stop herself…..she smiled at me and was ready to come asking for more.

Hey! We both turned and it was Hobbs. When the hell did he get here? I really had wasted all of my energy on this phony bitch.

He threw his gun at me….and I knew it must have taken a lot of self restraint to not take care of business himself ..that bitch had fucked him good.

She had nowhere to go. She could either come at my gun…or do me a favor and jump off. She made the wrong choice.

Wrong team bitch! I said as I shot her and watched her disappear into the night.

Dom? Mia?I asked

the plane shook as it tried to lift off…Hobbs ran to the emergency door. he could see Tej and Roman in a jeep down below.

Dom appeared beside us…I sighed with relief.

Are you ok! he asked grabbing me. I nodded….Mia?

Brian! he replied….I knew she was safe and we had no time for conversation.

We gotta move…it's gonna blow! Hobbs yelled

Go! Dom yelled back at him.

Hobbs nodded and flew out the window to the waiting jeep below.

Go! Now!…he pleaded…but I hesitated. It didn't feel right.

Move! Move! Move! Hobbs yelled up at me

I jumped knowing that Dom would follow.

He was taking too long….I needed him here beside me now.

Come On! I yelled up at him…he looked around and instead of jumping he disappeared back into the plane.

Dom! I yelled as tears filled my eyes. What the hell was he doing….Mia was safe.

The jeep sped off ahead of the plane that was ready to blow. The scene looked like something out of a movie. Except it wasn't and I was about to lose Dom forever.

..and then the flames erupted and only the hollow emptiness in my chest remained.

I had lost him….I would never be able to hold him…love him. He had given me my life back…and now he was taking it.

I looked back up at the flames behind us, and then he came…..a car flew out of the nose of the plane…..it could only be him. I jumped with emotion…but then the car flipped several times behind us and got lost in the burning ball of fire…..fuck!

The jeep came to a stop at a safe distance…We jumped out..the others were already there….Brian…Mia?...Han.

We were all starring now…but I didn't see hope in anybody's eyes.

He had made it out the plane…..and that gave me hope. If anyone can make it out of this…It was him…..it had to be.

I starred…tears flowing and I didn't care. This fucking hurt..and it hurt bad.

Then I saw him through my tears and through the smoke up ahead. They all saw him. Mia cried and hugged brian.

I walked….no, I ran over to meet him. I threw myself at him and wrapped my arms around his neck. I kissed him hard and he wrapped his hands around my waist pulling me in as close as possible.

I pulled my lips away from his, I didn't let go of him though….and I had a feeling that I wouldn't for a long time.

what the hell were you thinking? Do you know what you just put everyone through? he softly wiped the tears from my face…Mia was safe! You didn't have to go back. I was so scared! I laid my head on his chest...I thought I lost you!

I'm sorry Letty! he said as he ran his hand down the back of my head and back down to my waist. I had to get the chip! I owed everyone this much.

and most important ..he said as he now held my face in his hands...I needed to be able to take you home!
