chapter twenty six
Third Person's POV
After Han's funeral, Dom chased both Deckard and Brett. He chased after them and ended up losing him because a man called Mr. Nobody showed up with several armed men. He told Dom that he had a way that he could find the two Shaw's. Of course, Dom agreed and Mr. Nobody took him to the base. Shortly after Dom's arrival, the rest of the team was called and showed up at the warehouse including Letty, as Mia was back home with Jack. He didn't want to bring his little sister into this especially now that she has a child. But one person was missing out of all this: Britney.
"Our intelligence suggest that Inessa and Ramsey will be transported by an iron motor cage on the Caucasus mountain range. If they reach their destination, Inessa and Ramsey are as good as gone." Mr. Nobody explained to everyone as the walked as Marilyn looked down at the ground.
Even if Britney isn't here, she wants to know what else happened to her friend, because that one night still doesn't cut it for her.
"So lemme get this straight, there's only one road that leads in or out, with sheer drops on every side. A motor-cage from hell protected by a small army in one mile in either direction?" Roman questioned as they gathered around a small rectangular table that had a computer screen as the surface of it. Ramsey and Inessa was kidnapped and this was practically a rescue mission for the two.
"Yeah." Mr. Nobody shrugged as if it was nothing and then he continued. "That's about it." He says to Roman who shot him a look.
"You done?" One of the soldiers that had been following the group around asked.
"No, I'm not done." Roman snapped at the soldier, then turned his direction towards the team. "So you all wanted me to break into a police station, fine. But then you asked me to stop a tank, I wasn't happy about it, but I did it. Then you came up with this brilliant idea to shoot down one of the largest airplanes ever. I shot that shit out the sky, mm, it's nothin'! But this right here my friend, happens to be the stupidest idea I have ever heard in my life."
"I forgot that you were the only one to bring down the plane." Tej teased, looking up from his phone which he had been playing games on.
Which he misses Britney because she'd join him too, even if she doesn't understand the game because it's too hard for her to comprehend, he'd break it down so that a four year old could understand. Which would work for Britney and she'd beat Tej at his own game.
"Nah, nah the only thing I've seen him take down was uh, 'No-Knees' Denise. Remember, at Prom?" Brian asked, smiling as he teased his friend, despite his mood at the moment he just couldn't help it.
"Really, Brian? You gon' do that right here?" Roman questioned as Brian gave Tej, Tyler and Marilyn a look nodding as he raised his eyebrows. The four of them began laughing as Roman started talking again. "You tryna get me off my point! All I'm sayin' is, I'm tired of everybody around me makin' all the decisions. This time, I lead. Seriously, if I don't start makin' decisions, I'm out."
"Alright, Roman what do you got?" Dom asked placing his hands on the table in front of him leaning forward a bit.
"I mean, I wasn't...trying to get into the whole leadership thing like now, you know what I'm sayin? I'm just kind of like...talkin' like at some point. Like you now when we-whatever. I think..." Roman stuttered. "Let's hit it from here." He clicked on the screen on the table showing a picture of the road both Ramsey and Inessa would be on.
"I don't think that that's--"
"No, no, no, don't think." Roman cut off the soldier in a sassy tone. "That's my job."
"Okay. It is impossible to hit it there. That is literally the most secure spot on the mountain Why? 'Cause you can not physically access it." The soldier explained, using the same tone that Roman had just used with him.
"Oh Brit would love to say something about this, wouldn't she Brian?" Marilyn commented as Brian nods his head.
"She sure would." Brian says with a smile on his face imagining what his daughter would be saying about this.
"You see that's what makes it so sweet because it's the place they least expect us to hit 'em from!" Roman exclaimed.
"As much as I hate to admit it, he's onto somethin' there." Brian agreed with Tyler and Marilyn nodding glancing up at him.
"What do you think, Dommy?" Marilyn asked in a joking manner as she folded her hands over her chest as she looked over at Dom. He looked at the girl a moment before looking down at the screen in front of him.
"Here?" Dom asked, pointing at the spot Roman had only moments ago, as said Roman nodded his head at Dom. "I think we got a plan." Dom says as he begins to smile.
"Completely wrong thinking...and I like it!" Nobody said smiling as he pointed at the team.
"See, I'm good at this." Roman says in a cocky tone, staring directly at the soldier on the opposite side of the table.
"Good? Okay." The soldier said in an unconvinced tone. "How do you plan on getting on that road?"
"Well...." Roman trailed off as Marilyn raised an eyebrow at her father. "Tej!" He says as everyone but Marilyn looked over at Tej for an answer. Marilyn shook her head at her father who was pointing to Tej. Tej looked like he was thinking hard about something.
"I think I may actually have a plan for that." Tej replied slowly looking up at everyone.
"What? I delegated him. That's what good leaders do. Leader." Roman said the last part in a funny tone, causing Tyler to laugh.
"You know, when I read your files, I was impressed with what you've accomplished with your team. But meeting them now I'm...I gotta say Dom...You truly got a gift. " Mr. Nobody told Dom, as he walked away he continued. "Consider my...workshop your new playhouse. I think you'll find our cars extremely appealing. And your team, is now complete."
"Brian." Dom says as Brian turned around, as Dom and Letty walked over to him. "We're gonna need long travel-suspensions, limited slip differentials in all of them." Dom added referring to the cars they would need.
Brian nodded his head taking the information in. Letty walked up to Brian with a smile on her face as she pulled him in a hug. "Hey, how you doin'?" Brian asked her as she shrugged her shoulder, as she pulled away.
"Hanging in there, Mia's watching Marcus." Letty says smiling again, though Brian at this point could see right through her, as he smelled something on her.
Alcohol.
She'd been drinking before she came here, everyone was affected by Britney's missing three years ago and it still is happening everyday for some people including Letty.
"Tej, I want the demon love-child between that." Dom said to Tej, pausing to point at one of the larger Army Jeeps that had been scrapped, but most of the structure of the car was intact. "And that." He pointed to a black Challenger RT.
"That's a lot of armor." Tyler told Dom in a somewhat unconvinced tone. "It's just goin' add more weight, slow you down."
"This time it ain't just about bein' fast." Dom said as he turned around to face everyone. Letty smiled at Dom's words as she looked at Dom and he smiled at her with a faint nod.
This plan was going to be awesome, but also terrifying.
-------
"Aye, Dad." Marilyn says into the walkie talkie with a huge smirk on her face. She turned on her walkie talkie so she could hear what everyone was going to say. "You freakin' out, ain't you?"
"No." Roman lied, the tone he had used makin it obvious to everyone that he was lying.
"Yeah you are, Pops, don't be afraid to admit your feelings." Marilyn says as she was excited that this was going to happen.
"Listen up, it takes a grown man to embrace his feeling's. If you need to cry, just go ahead an' cry." Marilyn teased making everyone else laugh at her. "As your daughter, you know I'm concerned about your well-being. Which is why I took the precaution of putting some adult diapers in your glove compartment."
"Marilyn Carmen Pearce, you are not helping!" Roman exclaimed only making everyone else laugh harder.
"I've seem some crazy shit Dom, but this...really could make some waves. So let's just try to keep this low-key as possible." Mr. Nobody said, as his voice is coming in through the walkie-talkie's that everyone had placed in their cars.
"Don't I always?" Dom asked.
"I'll tell you what, you knock it down a couple of notches this time and I'll swap out my Belgium for a keg of Corona." Mr. Nobody said to Dom a smug sme on his face though he couldn't see it.
"You'd be doing yourself a favor there." Dom joked though he wasn't wrong, in the Toretto family's opinion. Corona is so much better than Belgium.
"Can somebody just walk me through what we supposed to be doin'!" Roman said into the walkie talkie with a nervous tone in his voice.
"C'mon Rome, this was your plan. You gotta embrace it!" Brian teased his friend which caused Marilyn to crackle with laughter.
"Is there a witch here?" Tej asked causing Marilyn to laugh more.
"Just my witchy daughter. No, this was not my plan." Roman said. As just as those words had left his mouth bright red flashing light turned on, followed by the noise that blared in sync with the flashing of the lights.
"Oh yeah, here we go. Game time!" Brian told them with an encouraging tone. Everyone had their game faces on. Brian and Dom would be the first two to drop out of the airplane in their cars, Letty is in her car car with with Marilyn, as well as Tej with Tyler and last but most certainly not least Roman.
"Roman you need some fresh air? 'Cause you 'bout to get a whole lot of it." Tej joked as a smirk formed on his face as Tyler shook her head at her Dad.
"Okay, here we go!" Dom spoke in the walkie talkie his voice serious. Letty looked in the rear view mirror and saw Dom's car slowly backing out of the plane, as she felt nervous but shook it off.
"Here we go." Letty muttered as she shifted from park to reverse then followed Brian and Dom in suit. When the car dropped out of the sky Marilyn felt her stomach drop.
"Holy shit." Marilyn mumbled as she saw her hands were shaking. It felt strange to her to be falling through air while being in a car. Right after them, Tej was next.
"Hey everybody good?" Brian asked into the walkie talkie. "Everybody make it out?" Marilyn could tell by the sound of his voice that he was nervous. She looked around to make sure that everyone got out, but she didn't see her father's car anywhere.
"I don't see Dad's car." Marilyn says as hee voice was shaking a little as Letty grabbed Marilyn's left hand and squeezed it. "Hey, Dad, take to me." Marilyn said to her Dad through the walkie talkie as she beated Brian to it.
"I can't do it." Roman told his daughter shaking his head even though she couldn't see her.
"The fuck you can't!" Marilyn exclaimed. "Throw that thing in reverse and get your ass out here now!" She instructed her father.
"I can't do this okay! Listen to what I'm sayin'!" Roman yelled frantically.
"Now isn't the time!" Dom warned beginning to grow impatient. They need to pull this off.
"I'm gonna stay up here with the pilot, we gon' circle around and make sure we holdin' it down from up here!" Roman explained as Tyler and Marilyn rolled their eyes at the man.
"Dad, get your ass down here!" Marilyn spoke up practically yelling into the walkie talkie making everyone wince a little at hearing her yell for practically the first time. As she isn't the type to yell unless like moments like this.
"You're running of time! The shoot is guided by GPS, you don't have to do anything!" Tyler said as she called out for her Dad who mumbled something along with the lines of 'I'm already on it'.
"Hey man, I'm sorry to let y'all down, okay. I'm gonna go ahead an' stay up here." Roman said to the team, letting his nerves get the best of him.
"No, brotha, I'm sorry to let you down." Tej said to him as Marilyn raised an eyebrow at his words.
"What?" Roman asked in confusion. Just then, Roman's car slowly started to back out of the plane, much to Roman's dismay. "TEJ, WHAT ARE YOU DOIN'?! AHHH! TEJ! I HATE YOU TEJ!" Roman screamed. His car was now flying through the air, but because he had let the parachute go too soon, he didn't land on the road yet.
"Get ready! Ground's comin'' fast!" Beian told the team.
"Let's go get Ramsey and Inessa."
-----
The tires hit the ground with a squeal, jerking the car forward. Thankfully. the cars were built to withstand that type of impact. Marilyn let out a sigh of relief when she saw that Brian and dom had landed safely and were driving in front of her and Letty.
"Touch down baby!" Letty said into the walkie talkie which Marilyn had handed her.
"Call a 'check', call it in." Dom's voice came through the walkie talkie. Letty handed Marilyn back the walkie talkie so she could focus on driving.
"Check." Marilyn said pressing down the button on the walkie talkie to speak.
"Check!" Tej repeated, as Marilyn looked around but didn't see her Dad.
"I'm good, let's do this!" Brian said with a hint of excitement in his voice. If only Britney was here she'd have the same excitement. God she misses her.
Marilyn looked out for the bus that Ramsey and Inessa was being transported in.
"Do you see it anywhere?" Letty asked Marilyn glancing over at her. Marilyn shook her head and began too look around once more.
"Alright, you've got one chance to hit it, Dom. If you miss they'll make it to their home sight and they'll squeeze any information they can get out of Ramsey and Inessa. The device and your changes of ever getting Shaw will be gone for good." Mr. Nobody told the team in a stern voice.
"That ain't gonna happen." Dom replied, clenching his jaw slightly.
"I'll see ya at the pickup." Mr. Nobldy said into the walkie talkie.
"Ramsey and Inessa will be on the bus." Brian spoke up, his eyes watching the bus speeding down the road. By now the team was just behind the entourage of cars that was protecting the bus.
"Let's do this shit, man." Marilyn exclaimed a small laugh leaving her lips after she spoke into the walkie talkie.
When the cars protecting the bus noticed that they were coming, they broke their formation and formed a barrier around the bus. Two trucks that were protecting the very back opened their trunks, revealing masked people with machine guns and they began firing at them.
"Shit!" Letty exclaimed as she turned the wheel from left to right in attempt to dodge the bullets.
"Tej this is you!" Dom told Tej through the walkie talkie.
"I'm on my way." Tej responded, as Letty drove on the left side of the road allowing Tej to drive in front of them.
"Alright formation." Dom instructed the team. Each of their cars formed a straight line, one behind another. Tej went in front since his Jeep is almost completely bulletproof, then Brian, Letty and Dom at the end. "Punch it!" As soon as the words left Dom's mouth, Letty slammed on the gas paddle. Doms car bundled the back of Letty's ever so slightly, Letty going thr same to Brian who drove in front of them. The formation was now complete.
Tej's Jeep hit the two trucks were still firing bullets at them, sending the trucks off the road. Tej continued to crash into the other vehicles either running them off the road or flipping them over.
Letty dodged a few of the vehicles. Tej and Brian sped ahead of the team, inching closer to the bus. They were panels on the sides of the bus and they opened, revealing several machine guns. Marilyn's eyes widened at the sight. She scrambled to pick up the walkie talkie.
"YOU GUYS NEED TO GET OUT OF THE WAY, NOW!" She yelled to Tej and Brian. Almost right after those words left her mouth the machine guns started firing their bullets.
"GET OUT OF THERE NOW!!" Tyler yelled to her father and Brian who ended up driving off the road his car hitting some branches in the process. Brian on the other hand was half on the road and half on the dirt as bullets was still coming his way.
It took them a moment, but they got back into formation, but instead of a straight line, Brian and Tej were driving side-by-side, Dom, and Letty doing the same.
"Hook em up." Dom instructed Letty. She used one hand to drive and the other to activate the launcher that would be hooked up to the bus. Dom and Letty pressed the button at the same time, resulting in two anchors flying through the back of the bus. "Brian, Tej, blow it!"
There were two small explosions, which caused the back wall of the bus to come flying off, the two anchors still attached to it. There was another explosion behind the team, signaling that one of the vehicles that was escorting the bus had been hit by the bus door.
"Brian and Mari, you're up!" Dom told the two. Marilyn looked at Brian who was attempting to push his windshield and reach it from his car to give him to get on the bus. He climbed out of his car through the windshield, holding onto the car tightly.
Marilyn unbuckled her seatbelts and rolled down the window all the way knowing that would be where she was going to exit the car to follow Brian. Marilyn managed to climb through the window, holding tightly into the car. She got in the same stance that Brian was in on the hood of the car. Letty hit the gas paddle harder making the car speed up just a bit more.
Since no one was driving Brian's car, Tej sped up and bumped the back of it moving Brian's car closer to the bus so brian could safely jump. Seconds later, Beian jumped onto the bus and landed safely. Marilyn let out a sigh of relief and followed in suit.
Mari landed with a thus on the floor of the bus. She groaned a little but quickly got up not knowing what would be waiting for her when she did. She looked up only to find Brian fighting with a guy who seemed to be a guard.
As one of the guards approached her she threw the first punch. He ducked then drew his hand back to swing at Mari but she brought her leg up and landed a swift hard kick on his side. Due to the impact he was knocked into the wall. Mari didn't give him a chance to recover before she grabbed the back of his head and slammed his forehead down on the counter next to her knocking him out almost instantly.
A masked man who held a fun in his hand made his way towards Brian and Mari. Brian quickly put him in a head-lock before he could do anything. Mari looked around to see if she could find either Ramsey or Inessa in the area they were in. But a rattling noise of a cage caught her attention. She grabbed a gun nearby and cocked it as she walked towards the noise.
She saw two weird looking cages and ran over to it, figuring that's where Ramsey and Inessa were. She slid open the cage door and cautiously the bag off of the person on the lefts head.
It was Ramsey.
Well one down one more to go.
She walked over to the other side but before she could Brian took of the bag and there was the culprit for making the cage rattling. Marilyn felt her heart drop of the sight of her best friend.
It was Britney.

So they found Britney!!!!!
