Chapter 5
The secret hide out was filled with cars and waiting bodies. Tej was at his computers while Dom and I were working on the cars. Suddenly, Tej's phone went off, causing Tej to yell out, "Yo, it's Hobbs." We all quickly got to our feet and listened to Hobbs voice.
"What have you got, Parker? Give me something good," Hobbs voice said while he was driving the steel jeep with DSS agent. "Yeah, that paint you got from Shaw's place is highly specialized. Anti-thermal low-IR coating."
"Military," Dom said.
Tej nodded, "Exactly. We got a list of bases around Europe that use this paint type and those specific colors." "All right, let's cross-reference that with all of Shaw's military targets. I guaran-damn-tee you one of them is gonna match," Hobbs said.
Tej clicked his tongue before saying, "Bingo. It's a NATO base in Spain." Dom pushed his body away from his car, "That puts Shaw in a different country. That means he's got an eight-hour lead on us."
"We gotta move now. Tej, give me that info. Riley and I will go ahead and we're going to lock down the base. We're going to protect that component personally. Toretto, I'll arrange transportation for you and your cars. You brush up on your Spanish, boys. I'll see you en Espana."
Hobbs hung up, letting silence take over, "I'm a girl jackass!" I yelled, as if Hobbs was still on the phone.
We all got to work, finishing up with our cars before packing our stuff and getting ready to go. Suddenly, the elevator doors opened, making everyone look over to it. My hands dropped my bag at the sight of a smiling Brian. He walked into the room, causing my feet to push me forward and my arms wrap around Brian's neck as I hugged him.
"I'm so glad you're okay," I said, hugging him tightly. Brian let out a small chuckle, "Yeah, me too."
We quickly filled him in on everything he missed before heading off. We piled us and our cars into a giant plane before we flew off. An hour after we had taken off and got comfortable by our cars, Tej quickly jogged in, "I just got word they caught one of Shaw's men at the base. It's time."
Brian shook his head, "Something is not right. He wanted us to find that guy. Think about it, at Interpol, you and Emily were face-to-face with him."
Dom looked at his friend confused, "Brian, so what are you saying?" "Braga said the only way you get near Shaw is if he wants you to," Brian said, making me look over to Tej, "Tej, where's that component?"
Tej pushed a few buttons before saying, "They're moving it to a secure location."
Dom spoke up, "Shaw ain't hitting that base." "He's hitting the convoy," I said, looking at the group with shock. Luckily, the plane was moving fast which meant we'd be getting there soon.
Once we landed, Dom, Brian, Roman, and I got in our cars and raced off to the location Tej told us. Tej, Hans, and Gisele where keeping an eye on the truck from a high bridge while the truck its self was about to cross a bridge.
"Guys, you better hurry up. They just took the convoy. And Em, Paris' with them," Tej came over the walky making me let out a shaky breath. "We stick to the plain," Dom said, his head turning and looking over at me. His car was driving right by mine both of us keeping the lead.
Shaw, Paris, and his men were coming from the other way, meaning we'd pass them before we got to them.
Suddenly, Tej came over the walky again, his voice sounding worried. "Uh, guys, we gotta come up with another plan. They got a tank."
My eyes went wide as Roman came over the walky, "I'm sorry, did somebody just say a tank?" Sure enough, the tank came into view, running over a car. Suddenly the tank aimed over at Dom and I, firing and hitting the cars behind us.
Dom and I quickly sped up, turning our cars and swerving out of the way. "Who's got a plan B?" Brian asked, causing Tej to quickly yell into the walky, "Plan B? We need a plan C, D, E. We need more alphabets!"
I quickly grabbed the walky, holding it up to my mouth and yelling into it, "Hey, we do what we do best. We improvise, all right?"
When I put the walky down, I took a deep breath while my brain tried to come up with a new plain. An opening on the side of the road made Dom and I quickly turn, followed by Roman and Brian as we race to catch up with the tank.
As we get close, the tank quickly turns and runs over the side of the road, onto the other where cars immediately start getting crushed. As cars continue to drive towards the tank, Shaw makes sure they are crushed or damaged.
Roman falls behind, quickly crossing the grass and following the tank, taking the path it created. "Take their attention away from the people!" Dom yelled as people either ran out of their cars or tried to swerve around the tank, failing.
Listening to Dom and not thinking, Roman sped up ahead of the tank, getting in front of it and slowing down. "What the hell is he doing," I said to myself, watching as the tank tries to shoot him, causing him to slow down and hit another car. Of course, the tank took this advantage and started to ride on the back of Roman's car, crushing some of the back.
I didn't need my windows down to know Roman was screaming in his own car.
"Roman, you hang in there. Hang in there, man!" Brian said into the walky, watching Roman closely. "Somebody better do something! I got a tank on my ass!" Roman yelled.
Shaking my head, I grabbed the walky only to stop when Dom spoke into it, "There's gotta be a break up ahead."
I sped up, a bridge coming up on top of us. Suddenly, the sound of the tank shooting something made me turn my head, only to follow the head of the tank which was pointed at the bridge. Debris and fallen cars started to fall, almost hitting Dom's car.
Following Dom was no longer an option.
Brian used part of the debris to drive over to the other side, landing right behind the tank. Taking a deep breath, I quickly turned the wheel, causing my car to fly over to the other lane, landing right behind Brian.
Speeding ahead, Brian makes his way to the wide of the tank, creeping closer to Roman's car. As he got closer, Roman fire a cable from the car to the tank before jumping onto Brian car.
Roman's car quickly shot out from under the tank, crushing it before letting it fly behind it. The cable yanked before dragging the car behind the tank. Dom and Brian's voice that came through the walky where background noise to me as my brain tried to focus on a new plain.
I quickly stepped on the gas, glancing to the side to see Brian had grabbed Roman and was already on the other lane with Dom. An opening rushed between the two lanes, splitting it up in half so we were separated.
Turning my wheel slightly, I was able to get next to the tank. One hand staid on the wheel while the other opened my car door. A car trying to swerve out of the way quickly rushed through the small opening between the tank and I, crashing into the car door and taking it with it.
My body jumps back from the sudden snap of the car door before I quickly pull myself together.
"Emily! What are you doing?" Brian's voice came through the speaker. I ignored his voice as I kept one hand on the wheel and one hand on the gas. "Sorry baby," I whispered to my car before jumping out of my car. My hands grasped the tank while my feet kicked at the cement, trying to grab onto something. My car rolled behind me, crashing and breaking as the pieces flew off.
My hands grabbed onto the tank, yanking me up onto the top of it before I shakenly got to my feel. The tank door was only a few feet away, making my heart race even faster.
"Emily!" Dom's voice yells making me look over to see him on the other side of the lane. His body was half out of the car as I followed his glance. Roman's car was now tangling in between Dom and I, freefalling only to be stopped suddenly by the cable.
The tank is yanked to the side, causing my body to fly off of it and into the air. My eyes wanted to close, but it was like my body was a stiff board, unable to breath, blink, or move. Suddenly, a harsh impact collided with me, pushing my body back.
Me and the collider grabbed ahold of each other, fling through the air before landing harshly on top of a car.
A groan left my lips as I looked up, meeting Dom's eyes. His eyes held so much fear in them as he looked at me, showing how venerable he really was when it came to me.
"You saved me," I said in a shaky voice. "I'll always save you," Dom said making my heart melt as we both tried to catch our breath. Slowly and cautiously, we climbed off the car, both of our bodies a bit shaky. A car quickly pulled up to us as we climbed off the car, stopping.
Paris jumped out of the driver's side, a look of worried then relief on her face. She slammed her door shot before she ran over, making my heart slip a beat. When her body collided with mine and her arms wrapped around me, a relief breath left my lips before I wrapped my own arms around my little sister.
"Are you okay? Are you okay?" Paris asked, her breath showing the worriedness in them.
I smiled, nodding, "Yeah, I'm okay," my eyes looked to Dom, smiling, "I got a great guy watching out for me."
