"Okay, we traced the number to the northbound 86 Mile 114, outside Coachella. We'll keep the trace open, Officer." The lady says when she calls back.

"Let me see this." Brian says as he takes the map from Mia. "I think we're about 40 miles away. "What are you gonna do?" Mia asks him as she worries about her family. "What are you gonna do?" As Brian just speeds him.

Desi and Letty share a worried look as they catch o\up to the truck. "Okay! Go time!" Dom says over the walkie talkie as he pulls in front of the truck.

"We're all good. I got nothing on the scanners. Keep going." Leon says over the walkie as Vince takes the windshield out. He also then hits the seat and connects the wire to his belt.

"Vince!" Desi yells as she sees the driver shoot at Vince who is on the front of the truck. "He's got a damn fucking shotgun! Leon!" Dom says over the walkie.

"Back off! Get him off of there!" Leon says over the walkie.

"Oh, shit! Get me fof this thing! Pull up!" Vince yells at Dom.

"Unhook yourself. Do it! Do it!" Dom yells back as he reaches out the window. "I can't get it!" Vince yells in panic.

"You can do it! Come on, Vince!" Dom yells before the driver shoots out his rear light. "We need to distract the driver." Desi tells her Aunt Lety a she forms a plan. "I need you to get right behind the truck."

"Are you out of your mind?" Letty asks as Desi goes to climb out the window. "Just trust me! Please." Desi tells Letty before she nods finally agreeing. Desi climbs onto the hood of the car as Letty gets right behind the truck. Desi jumps onto the ladder that is on one of the door before climbing to the top of the truck.

"Dom! I'm pulling up to distract him!" Letty says over the walkie before she heads towards the front of the truck.

"Take me off here. I can't unhook the wire!" VInce yells at Dom. "Try it again. One, two, three!" Dom yells at Vince. The driver sees Desi on top of the truck before slamming on the breakes causing her to drop and hold on. This slings Vince around the side of the truck. The driver quickly speeds up with throws Vince around causing his arm to get tangled in the wire.

"Unhook yourelf!" Dom yells at Vince.

"I can't get my arm free!" Vince yells back.

"Vince, grab my hand!" Dom yells.

"My arm!" Vince yells back.

"Listen, give me your hand. I'm gonna pull you off the rig! Vince! Hold on! Gie me your hand! LIsten to me!" Dom yells as the driver shoots at Vince. The driver then shoots Dom's front tire out. "Dominic! Dominic!" Vince yells in panic.

"Hang on!" Dom yells back as he tries to control the car.

"Dom, move out of the way, I'm going to get him." Letty says over the walkie before she pulls up on the left side before sliding under the truck and coming out on the right side. Letty goes to pull up beside Vince but the driver swerves into her causing their tires to hit. This sends Letty's car into the ditch causing it to flip three times before it lands upside down.

"Letty!" Desi says as she sees the car She continues to crawl her way to the front. "Leon! Pull back for Letty. Get her out of there." Dom says over the walkie.

"I'm on it! Go! I've got her! You get Vince off that truck.' Leon replies over the walkie before he drops back to get Letty. The driver shoots Vince to the side.

"Vince!" Desi yells as she sees it happen. The driver then shoots Dom's car hitting the engine causing the car to slowly stop. "Dom!" Desi looks back to see Brian's orange car coming, causing her to sigh in relief.

"All right, hold on, Vince" Desi yells at him as she climbs down to him before Brian pulls up beside her.

"Desi!" Brian and Mia shout as they see her, as Britney is still in the backseat.

"He's having a hard time holding on. Get a little closer." Desi yells at them.

"All right." Brian says as he gets closer to the truck. "You got to hang in there with me now! We'll get you off. Give me your arm! Vince, look at me! Don't let go!" Desi yells as she unwraps the wire from Vince's arm. "Come on, Vince! Throw this arm around me! V, don't let go!" Desi says as she looks at Brian.

"Come on, Brian. Get closer! Brian, get closer! Come on. Come on, Vince. Here we go!" Desi pushes Vince as he jumps into the car before Mia pulls Vince into the front seat with her. "Shit!" Desi yells before jumping into the car as the driver shoots at her. Brian reaches his hand up grabbing Desi's hand as she uses the other to hold onto the car. The driver swerves into Brian sending them in the ditch.

"We gotta get him out of the car." Desi says as she jumps out of the car before Brian helps her get Vince out. "Mia, take your jacket and put pressure on the gunshot wound." Mia does as told while Desi holds up Vince's arm up. "Here." Brian says as he takes Vince's arm from Desi before the starts taking off her belt.

"Come on, Vince! Hang in there! Come on!" Brian says as Desi ties her belt around Vince's arm as he coughs. Dom drops beside Mi and takes her place.

"If he doesn't get an ambulance in 10 minutes, he's dead." Britney says as she looks between Dom and her father in panic because she doesn't want to loose Vince, even if she doesn't really like him. He's starting to grow on the girl.

"Hold the pressure. Hold his arm up." Brian tells Mia as he passes Vince's arm to her.

"I got it." Mia tells him before he pulls out his phone.

"Yeah. Yeah, this is Officer Brian O'Conner. I'm off-duty LAPD." Brian says causing Dom to glare at him while Desi looks at him shocked before the takes Dom's place as he glares at Brian. "I need a life flight roll out this way. My 20 is Highway 86, mile marker 147. I got one trauma victim, about 24 years of age. Six foot, maybe 200 pounds. He's got a deep laceration to his right arm with arterial bleeding." Mia and Desi both shake their head 'no' at Dom as he looks at his sister and niece. "And he's got a shotgun wound close range to his left flank. Yeah, he's going in shock."

Within the next few minutes there is a life flight there and taking care of Vince. Brian helps them get Vince into the helicopter. Dom, Mia and Desi all watch before Leon starts yelling at the cops. Dom, Mia and Desi walk away towards the car, leaving Brian and Britney alone.

-----

Britney sits in her usual seat beside her father as she doesn't say a word as she has a cut wound on her left arm that she is putting pressure on it to make it stop the bleeding. Brian and Britney haven't said anything since the incident, within like ten minutes ago, all there is in the car is Brian's heavy breathing trying to catch his breath and Britney's winces as she is squeezing her arm, as it stings.

"When we get to the house, you stay in the car, okay Brit." Brian finally says to his daughter as she looks ahead without looking at her father. "Hey, you okay?"

"I'm fine, daddy. I am." Britney says as she isn't even sure she is from her straight up lie. Brian pulls to the side of the road, as it slowly comes to a stop as he isn't stepping on the breaks hard. After the car stops he turns to Britney wanting to know what's wrong, as this isn't like her at all.

"Brit, what's wrong?" Brian asks her as he sees that she has tears rolling down her cheeks as he touched her left side and the tears were hot tears. Meaning that she's forcing herself not to cry, as that's what that means. Brian is confused because this isn't like her at all. She would immediately break out in tears, not forcing herself not to cry. "Baby girl....please." Brian says as now he's begging her to tell him.

Right before Brian was going to say something Britney had a breaking point as she just sobbed in her father's arms without a care in the world. Brian brought the little girl in his arms and rubbed her back. Then he remembered something about Joe saying that she has emotional outbursts sometimes, so he thought that's what it was. But it didn't seem right, he also thought that she was just caught up in the moment and everything happening so fast that her brain didn't comprehend what was happening. Now, that seemed like an answer that seemed to fit.

"Was it because everything happened so fast?" Brian asks her as he felt her little head nodding as he kissed her head as he continued to rub her back.

"Yeah." Britney whispered as Brian longfully kissed her head as he felt her heart beat slowly down a little. Which was a good thing.

"Ready for one last ride?" Brian asked her as she thought about it for a long second before slowly nodding her head, as she gulped. "That's my little girl." He said as he offered her his right hand and she squeezed it as Brian sped off towards the Toretto's house again, like he was originally going. Before he had to stop to calm down his daughter which is fine, to him. He needs it too sometimes. On the way there Brian told her that he loves her and sweet words to keep her calmed down, as it was working.
