Hello and welcome! I finally committed to this franchise and boy have I been missing out! I wish I owned something from these wonderful movies, but I only own this story (hey, I guess that's something from the movies, right? ;))

Everything belongs to it's original creators!

Here is a full summary:

"I made a whole life for myself - and there's always been room for you in it."

Rosario 'Rio' Delgado, a professional stunt biker, has been part of Dom's team since the beginning. Then someone from her past suddenly emerges from the shadows and changes everything, which, she realizes, is not all what it seems. Follows F9, X, and X pt.2/11. (JakobXOC)

Thanks and enjoy! :)

Los Angeles, California

1989

"Dad's going to win," Mia stated. Rio nodded in agreement, eyes never leaving the track.

Weekends at the race track had become familiar and comforting, surrounded by the best people she knew. Dom and Jakob were part of the pit crew, and she squinted to catch a glimpse of the brothers.

Her eyes on the centre of the track, she missed it initially, and only caught the beginnings of the tragedy out of the corner of her eye.

It all happened so fast-

One moment, the cars were speeding around the track, Jack in the lead. The next, the leading car was flipping, spinning, bursting into flames.

"DADDY!" screamed Mia.

"Ay Dios Mio!" Rio jumped to her feet, as did practically everyone in the seats. The car flipped and rolled, roaring with flames. The track was now full of commotion, as were the stands. Everyone was standing and shouting, and with her small stature, she strained to see over them, but to no avail.

Finally, she grabbed Mia's hand and pushed and shoved her way through the crowd. People yelled at her and gave her dirty looks but that didn't matter, all that mattered was that it was Jack out there.

But there was nothing to be done. The entire car was engulfed in flame. There was no way Jack could have survived, no matter how much they hoped and prayed.

Dom and Jakob were nowhere to be found. Mia joined Letty to find Dom while Rio continued to tear through the crowd, not stopping until she found him.

When she did, find him that is, he was hiding in a far corner of the stands, curled in on himself, tears streaming down his face.

"Jakob? Jakob!"

For a long while, neither said anything. They didn't have to. They just held each other in their grief.

When at last they drew back from their tender embrace, she reached up and brushed his tears away with her thumbs, fingernails painted a chipped black that would need redoing soon.

"We're going to be okay," she said, finding the words deep within herself, speaking them even if she didn't fully believe them, not yet. "I don't know how, but we will be. We're together, and I know we'll be okay so long as we stick together."

Thirty years later

All around the world, to Los Angeles and back again

"Yeah, cars are cool and all, but I prefer bikes."

Tej and Roman started hitting on her and Gisele right away, all until Gisele and Han found each other and eventually Ramsey came along.

She brushed off their advances without a care. "No thanks fellas, but I'm already taken."

"By who?"

"By who? By nobody. I'm my own woman, I just so happen to have my own ride or die."

"Who?"

She winked. "Wouldn't you like to know."

But Dom knew, and she could feel his gaze burning into her.

How long was she going to wait? For as long as necessary. You had to have faith - Jakob had left them long ago, but she had faith they would cross paths again.

From teenage sweethearts to each other's ride or dies, they would never give up on each other.

Hello and welcome to this new story that I am so excited about! :)
