Previously On The Fast & Furious Family Chronicles…..
The Older blond stood frozen in position. His mind racing with countless thoughts, breathing was becoming more extremely heavy and to top it all off…..the quiver of his bottom lip as tears began to flood his eyes. He then slowly began to approach his mother, and gently placed a hand on top of hers, which followed by an intense staredown between the two adults.
"Mom…." Brian muttered before wrapping the woman in a bone-crushing embrace.
"I'm so, so, sorry, I…"
"Hush now, my child, everything is alright" She cooed softly "I'm here."
"I'm sorry son. But it has to be this way….We forbid you from dating Alyssa!"
The young blond was absolutely appalled. Sure, he knew his family would respond negatively, but this was taking it to a whole new level.
"You…Forbid….Me?"
"You heard me. While you live under this roof, you abide by our rules"
"Okay." Darryl simply stated as he headed upstairs to his room "I got you" and then abruptly slammed the door.
A slight vibration broke Brian's attention. He reached for his phone, and there on screen was a notification from Roman.
O'Connor,
I know we're rivals, but I thought this information would be prevalent to you as well, Alyssa ran away last night, and I'm certain Darryl is with her.
~T.P
The older blond looked at his phone with confusion. But to prove his suspicions, he busted through his brother's bedroom and took a survey around.
"Shit!"
Tej was right. Darryl and Alyssa have run away together.
Hours Before The Discovery…..
Barstow Train Station
Train Bound For Miami FL
Darryl and Alyssa's Compartment
12:08 a.m
Just hours before Brian and Tej discover that their siblings have run away, Darryl and Alyssa did indeed meet at The Barstow Train Station. After much discussion, the two teens decided on Miami FL, as their dream destination. Lucky for them, a train was departing for the port city promptly at 12:15 a.m.
After purchasing tickets, Darryl and Alyssa made their way onto the train and en route to their compartment area: 12. To both teens surprise, the compartment area was enormous for just two people, similar to that of The Hogwarts Express on Harry Potter.
"Wow!" Alyssa exclaimed in awe
"Wow, Indeed. This was definitely worth the sixty bucks for both tickets" Darryl replied contently
Darryl and Alyssa store their belongings in the overhead bin and take seats across from one another.
"I can't believe we're doing this" Darryl said "But if my family ever caught me, the end result, would not be pretty"
"I agree" Alyssa stated "Tej would more than likely ground me for eternity. But I'm not going down, without a fight"
"Exactly, or also know as as….World War 3"
Both teens laugh at the young blond's statement, until the conductor coming onto the PA, breaks it up.
Attention Passengers! We are all clear for departure from Barstow's Downtown Train Station to Miami Florida. Our expected arrival time is 1:15 P.M Eastern Time. Our Cafe is open twenty-four hours and open to all our guests. Thank you and we hope you enjoy your ride!
Moments later the train's whistle hissed and howled as it pulls out the station. Darryl and Alyssa starred out the window, reminiscing about their now past lives.
"Adios, California!. Florida, here we come" Alyssa said happily
"Yep. Goodbye forev…."
Darryl froze mid-sentence, as a vision came flooding into his mind.
Darryl's First Vision
Dialogue from Season 2 Episode 1: Old Acquaintances Part 2
Ugh, I don't know what just happened but, My pain has increased and it hurts to move. I feel something sticky on my hands and try to decipher what it is. I also hear familiar voices surrounding me and I realized that one of them was Brian!; oh thank goodness my family has come to the rescue. My vision had gotten worse since this morning and I could barely see everyone crowded around me. Brian who was the closest held my head in his arms.
"Brian...is that you?" I mumbled
"Yes it's me, buddy, I'm here"
"I'm pretty bad shape Bro; everything hurts"
"Don't worry we're gonna get you some medical help..."
"It's too late for that Bri...Carter has won"
"Don't say that!; You're gonna be okay"
"I doubt it; At this point, the damage is already done..."
Brian finally lost it and let the tears stream down his cheek; Everyone else was on the verge of crying as they thought this was Darryl's final moments
"Don't cry Big Brother; You did everything you could, Just remember this...Will always be brothers even if I'm six under and in God's protection. I love you all"
End of Vision
Darryl shook his head viciously. Alyssa gave him a concerned look.
"You okay?" She questions
"Huh?" He asks distortedly
"Are you okay?" Alyssa repeats "You were saying something and then completely froze like a deer in headlights"
"Uh…..Yeah. I don't know what happened. It's like I just had a vision of getting a car accident and was on the verge of death. Brian was there and cradling me while holding back tears. Then….I blacked out"
"What the?!. That's freaking scary!"
"I know right?!. But I'm all good now. I promise"
"Okay. If you say so"
~The Fast & Furious Family Chronicles~
O'Connor/Pearce Automotives
8:00 A.M
Brian's POV
After realizing that Tej was right about, Darryl and Alyssa, We both agreed to set our differences aside, while we searched for our siblings. Can it be done?, I think so. But, will it be easy? No way in hell. Our rivalry goes way back into the early 90's, and I don't foresee it changing anytime soon. I just pray that Darryl is located quick, fast and in a hurry. He's only 15! and this world is an extremely dangerous place.
Also, being the mature person I am, Tej was welcome back to the dealership for the time being. That way, if one of us heard something, or got any leads on Darryl & Alyssa's whereabouts, we could instantly get ahold of one another. But before anything could occur, a police report had to be filed. Which is where Officers: Dominic Toretto & Leticia Ortiz come into play.
"Alright….." Dom began holding a notepad out "When was the last time, you both seen your siblings?"
Tej and I turned to each other with haunted expressions
"Last night around 8" I stated "Darryl had come home and shortly after, a heated argument broke out and after being told that he couldn't see Alyssa, Darryl, went to his room and slammed the door behind him. Then less than two hours ago, I checked his room, to find he has escaped"
Officer Toretto nodded slightly as he finished up writing. Letty then began to speak
"Do you think there's anywhere specifically they would run off to?"
"Not that I could think off the top of my head" Tej replied, then….it hit him.
"Wait a second….."
"What?" I demanded
"Alyssa has a debit card. Does Darryl?"
"Yes. But what does that have to do with anything?"
Tej then proceeded to facepalm himself. I'm not understanding!, That's why I asked!
"Because…" He started irritably "If they bought tickets to anywhere, we could track them down to their remote destination"
"That's actually quite genius, Tej" Roman added, patting the man on the back
"Gee, thanks" Tej replied
"That is a great place to start" Dom added "It's definitely worth looking into"
"All we need is the bank's institutions name….and full authorization to look inside both accounts," Letty said
"That can definitely be arranged"
~The Fast & Furious Family Chronicles~
Darryl & Alyssa's Train
Passing through: El Paso Texas
9:00 A.M
Darryl & Alyssa's Shared Vision
Dialogue From: Season 2 Episode 8 (Relationships 101)
Darryl was woken up by the tiny taps on his bedroom window. At first, he thought it was the wind but then checked just to make sure. He was surprised to see Alyssa hanging from a branch. The blond opened up the window and greeted his friend
"Hey, Alyssa what are you doing here?" He asked
Not that he wasn't happy to see her but it was, 4:02 in the morning and usually people are sleeping around this time.
"Tej and I had a fight…...Is it okay if I crash here for a couple of hours?"
"Sure I guess"
Darryl extended out his hand and Alyssa grabbed onto it and climbed inside
"Perfect timing because Tej was just here"
"He was?"
"Yep about thirty minutes ago; Now I think he and Brian went out to look for you"
"Well they're gonna be searching for a while" Alyssa laughed
Darryl chuckled at his friend's statement and then asked another question
"So what happened this time?"
"When I got back to my brothers he started questioning me and asking why I had ditched the family barbecue'
"And what did you tell him?"
"The truth and he didn't like that….Apparently, he starting getting this crazy idea that you would be a bad influence on me and forbid me from seeing you again"
"Wow that's harsh"
"Tell me about it…..So once I knew he was asleep I snuck out the back door and headed here"
"By foot?"
"Yep I didn't really have money for bus fare"
"Alyssa you know you're gonna have to face him again and work this out right?"
"Don't you think that I know that O'Connor?; Why did you think I left?"
"Because it's something you do when you don't get your way"
"True but Tej is my big brother and I shouldn't feel the same way at his place….Which is the main reason why I came to Los Angeles"
"I guess but I'm just concerned about you…...Did he tell you what your mother said?"
"Yeah she cursed him out and said I was ungrateful and blah, blah, blah and wouldn't care if I returned back"
"Are you going to?"
"Well, that depends….I like talking with you Darryl and it would be a tragedy if I head home when things are starting to go well between us"
"Okay then Ms. Parker let's just see where our Relationship leads us," Darryl said lowering his voice and smiling
"Yeah let's just see how this plays out"
End of Vision
Conductor Over PA: Attention Passengers, We are approaching EL Paso Texas Central Station. There, you will have a forty-five-minute layover before continuing to our final destination: Miami Florida, Thank You!
Right after the conductor's message, Darryl and Alyssa awoke from their slumber. Both teens were utterly distorted as to what was happening. Then, of course, they realized that they had just simply fallen asleep, while on the train. Both, however, shared a crucial vision, while slumbering: The day they first met.
"Man, I had the craziest dream!" Alyssa proclaimed before yawning profusely
"Same here," Darryl said in relation "Was I in it?"
"Oh yes. I apparently had gotten into a fight with Tej (go figure, right?), Then I came over to your house and tried to climb through your window, but it was locked"
The young blond look at his girlfriend. Wait...was he allowed to call Alyssa his girlfriend?. They hadn't really discussed it, but, she was a girl who also happens to be his friend. So in the grand scheme of things, it works.
"No kidding?, Mine went exactly like that. Was yours followed by me opening the window, and you and I talking and mentioning something about: Brian and Tej looking for us?"
"Yes!. It went exactly like that!"
"Um….Alyssa….I believe we both shared a vision! and not a dream" Darryl concluded
"It makes sense though. There's no way we both can have the exact same dream"
"Exactly. I also think….that this isn't our life and rather some crazy hallucination"
"A Hallucination?, But how did we get here in the first place?"
"I'm not sure. But one thing's for sure, we need to get the hell out of dodge!"
"But how?, We don't even where to begin"
"Actually….I have an idea"
Alyssa inched closer to Darryl with eagerness
"I'm listening," She said
"Well, that house in our vision, seem really freaking familiar. If my memory serves me correctly….That's where we are being kept in our real lives, which is located in a Los Angeles Suburb"
"Los Angeles?!. You do realize we're in Texas. Heading for Florida"
"Easy fix" Darryl assured "We just switch trains during the layover and head back to California"
"But. Didn't you spend a good majority of your money, on these tickets?"
Darryl's forehead furrowed in the realization
"Shit. You're right. Hmmmm….Well, we're just gonna have to improvise"
Alyssa lightly brushed her long jet black hair away from her eyes
"What do you suggest?"
A devilish smirk began to appear on the young blond's face
"Well…."He began "I was thinking…."
~The Fast & Furious Family Chronicles~
Meanwhile in California…..
O'Connor/Pearce Automotives
As Brian waited patiently for a response from Officers Toretto & Ortiz, He actually managed to receive an even better blessing…..A text message from Darryl.
Brian,
I know mom, dad and you are furious, yet also worried about me. Just wanted to let you, I'm fine and I'm currently heading back to California. Meet me at this address around 7 pm tonight (4678 Braxton Lane. Los Angeles, 90061). Bring Tej as well. Alyssa and I have a theory pertaining to our situation.
~Darryl
The older blond frantically closed out of messages and proceeded to dial Tej's Number. After the third ring, he answered.
"We've got a location" Brian stated simply
"I'll be right over"
~The Fast & Furious Family Chronicles~
4678 Braxton Lane,
Los Angeles CA
7:18 P.M
Darryl's POV
To sum things up, Alyssa and I ended up sneaking onto the train, heading back to California. We rode all the way to Los Angeles and ended up walking the remaining distance to 4678 Braxton Lane. As we both entered the suburb, the sun had slowly disappeared and was replaced with a clear, cool and starry night.
"You ready for this?" I asked Alyssa as we approached the block
"Ready as I'll ever be" She states in a calm and collective voice
"Me too Alyssa. Me too"
We both take deep breaths and half-smiled
Well….Here goes nothing.
Instantly as we migrated closer towards the house, Brian and Tej came rushing to us, giving us bone-crushing embraces.
"Omg Darryl!, You scared the living daylights out of me!" Brian wailed
"You as well, Alyssa!" Tej added, "What the hell were you thinking?!"
"Wait, brother!" Alyssa ordered, "Before you go off on us, Darryl and I, want to explain our theory!"
"Okay. Let's hear it."
"Well, We believe that this…" Darryl began gesturing to the environment around them "Isn't our real life"
"Then, what would you consider it?" Tej questioned
"A Hallucination!" Both teens said simultaneously
"A Hallucination?!. That has got to be the most absurd thing I've heard all…."
"I believe it" Brian interrupted
Tej turned to the Older blond "Say, what?"
"I believe it. I've been having these visions of what seemed to be another version of my life. Like mom dying, fight a war alongside with Darryl and even you Tej and Officers Toretto and Ortiz!"
"You've been having visions too?" Darryl asked his brother in relief "Me too. One of me near death, and of Alyssa and I meeting each other for the first time"
"And this house" Brian added pointing to it "Was in these visions?"
"Exactly!. Which is also a gateway back to our world!"
"Oh come on" Tej uttered irritably "This is all nonsense!. There's no way that this house, has some gateway"
"Really?, Well prove me wrong, Parker!" Darryl challenged, crossing his arms
Tej's smirked evilly. "Fine!, I will!"
The eldest Parker sibling marched towards the house and instantly the front door opened automatically. Brian, Darryl, and Alyssa followed behind Tej as he continued onward upstairs. Upon reaching the top floor, a faint humming noise could be detected in a nearby room.
"You ready to be embarrassed, Tej?" Darryl prompted "Cause I am!"
Tej scoffed in response "Please. If anyone is gonna be embarrassed, It's gonna be you"
As the group entered the room, there, in fact, was a rather oval shaped portal, dead center
"Well, I'll be damn," Tej said with complete shock "You were right, O'Connor"
"Duh" Darryl replied sarcastically
Alyssa cleared her throat, as she eyeballed the younger blond with a narrowing expression
"No Tej, We were right," Darryl said gesturing to him and Alyssa
The youngest Parker smiled "Thank you, Darryl"
'Hold on through" Tej interjected, "How do we even know this thing is real?"
Brian shrugged "Let's find out!" he then shoved Tej forceful enough that he went through the portal, with a shriek.
"That was rather entertaining" Alyssa chuckled as she went through next.
Brian stepped aside and gestured for Darryl to go through next.
"Please, after you"
"Thanks. See you on the other side"
Last, but not least, It was Brian's turn. He looked around one last time, realizing everything were to change. But it was probably for the better.
However, this was just the beginning. A much greater evil awaited The Toretto Crew back home.
