I woke up the next day around 9. It was quiet in the house, unusually quiet. I figured Frank stood out all night seeing as he was very popular among racers throughout Freemont City. So I make some breakfast and watch tv in the living room. Tomorrow Never Dies was on, it was one of my favorite 007 movies besides Goldeneye and From Russia with Love. My phone rang and the number was unrecognizable I picked up. Hello? I said, "Hello, hey it's me Frank look man I'm in jail right now". What, why? I asked. "Turns out Carlos betrayed us and told Stephanie who happens to be a cop about a supposed warrant I had and I got arrested" said Frank. Where's that bitch Stephanie? I asked. "Don't know but apparently Carlos might have tipped her off about it" Frank said. "Look Willie I'm gonna need you to take control of the crew, we're gonna finish off Carlos and the rest of his crew" Said Frank. Ok I will do that man don't worry. "Look Stephanie told me that Roberto hacked my records and put a fake warrant, Stephanie was blackmailed into arresting me" Frank said. I knew it, that piece of shit used us, just like Darius did to us in Palmont I said. "Well I'm gonna be here until this gets taken care of" Frank said. I'm calling a meeting later I said. "Ok do that but I gotta go" said Frank. Ok bye I said hanging up and calling the others. Everyone showed up except Stephanie. "What happened man?" Asked Juan. "Where's Frank?" Akiko asked. "Why are we here?" Asked Luis. "What Happened?" Asked Mickey. As you all know we took out all but crew in Freemont City I announced. Carlos betrayed us and had Frank arrested for a false warrant I said again. "So he's a Cop? asked Mickey. Nope Stephanie turned out to be an Undercover cop I said. The crew stood there shocked. There's a few races going on in South Bay right now. Some of Carlos's crew's gonna be there. Lets get ready head out. I said. I got in my Civic and head off. All 5 of us drove to South Bay in a convoy. I decided to race first, the first race was a Sprint I was against a green Fiat Punto, His name is Joe Castiglione one of Carlos's guys. "Yo see if you can keep up" he called. Let's go then I said. I floored it taking an early lead. It was a Saturday so traffic wasn't all that bad. I managed to keep ahead the whole time. At the last part the road was blocked of so I managed to cut through an alley keeping a lead. I crossed the finish line first with Joey behind me. I got out my car as Joe walked towards me. "Nice run" he said shaking my hand. "Look man I heard what Carlos did to you guys" Joe said. Yeah I know it was a dirty trick. "Look I've been wondering if I could join your crew, I heard that you guys are short 2 people". Yeah man welcome aboard I said shaking his hand.
Cutscene:
Time:11 Am
Location: Hartgrove Village
At the SSK hangout Carlos was playing pool with a couple of guys when Roberto walked in. "Hey Roberto what do you got for me?" asked Carlos. "Um Joe just left to join Frank's boys" said Roberto. "Really, well luckily I found a few more guys that'll help us" said Carlos. "Here they come" Carlos said. A green Infiniti G35 drove into the garage. "Hello Matt" Carlos greeted. "Hey Carlos" Matt greeted. "So that piece of shit Willie is running things now" said Matt. "Not for long" Carlos said. A Green Plymouth Hemi Cuda drove in the garage. "Hello Jose" Matt greeted. "Hola Carlos and Matt. "I never thought we'd be working together" Jose said. "Times change" Carlos said. "The Shadow Racers will pay, that asswipe Willie took my car, girl and pride, best believe he'll pay" said Matt. Then a Green 2008 Lamborghini Murcielago rolled in. "Paul's here" said Carlos. "Well times are strange Vega, I'd never thought we'd be working together as well" said Paul. "Yeah I know" said Carlos.
Author's Notes: So it looks like Carlos hired the crew leaders of Freemont city. Similar to what Darius did in NFS Carbon. Be on the look out for the next chapter. Peace :)
