The Fast And The Furious Girl

7.1

(August/Alex P.O.V.)

After last night with sneaking around and everything, I decided to check in with Bilkins. I switch out my wallets and grab my badge then head inside.

"My superiors are flying in from D.C., in two days. I want something to show. " Bilkins says.
"We've got a fence with a lube hose in his mouth....automatic weapons, priors on every one of these Asian punks....a garage full of DVD players and generally psychotic behavior. Tell me why we shouldn't move on Tran now and figure it out later?" Serge says.

"Because all we have is behavior. What does your other agent say?" I ask.
"What other agent?" Serge says trying to play it off.
"You know. Brian Earl Spilner or whatever his name really is." I say rolling my eyes.
"How did you find out?" Bilkins asks knowing they can't hide it.
"He almost got busted by Dom last night. We were out driving and we saw him sneaking into Hector's garage. Luckily he lied so good that Dom believed him, but Vince is on to him. Plus, he is dating my sister. You need to tell him to watch himself." I say.
"We haven't talked with him yet. But what we have is probable cause. And truckers arming themselves for some good old-fashioned vigilante mayhem." Serge continues forgetting about Brian.

"Tell us about Hector, Alex," Bilkins says.
"Latinos with spear guns. Give me a break." Serge says.
"From what Brian said last night, Hector is working on four Honda Civics. He ordered more parts yesterday. He could be the one but Hector is too slow of a driver to be able to pull something this big off. Tran has the money to have the cars to pull this off, plus I saw tons of DVD players in his garage. Will somebody get me some food?" I explain.

"Get her some food," Serge says.
"Don't get her any. Thought you quit stress eating?" Bilkins says.
"I did. Just get me some food." I say.
"Get her some food." Serge tries again.
"No!" Bilkins says.

"Tell me about Toretto," Serge says after he had enough.
"I told you, he's too controlled for this. Going suicidal on semi-trucks? No way. Could be Vince, but all he is is muscle and no brains." I lie.
"I think being apart of their family is blurring your vision. What you think I wouldn't find out who you really are?" Serge says.
"What did you say?" I say.
"I don't blame you. Family is family. You do need to get Vince out of your head. I've seen the surveillance photos." Serge says getting on my last nerve. I lunge at him but Bilkins pulls me back.

"Knock it off, Alex! What? Are you turning on me, Alex? Have you read your brother's file lately?" Bilkins questions me.
"What do you think?" I answer.
"Read it again. No, better yet, take a look at these. I told you about the guy he nearly beat to death? He did this with a three-quarter-inch torque wrench. He's a model of self-control." Serge explains.
"You have a short-temper too, but you're a great agent and I don't want to lose you. Just because this case has to do with your family." Bilkins says.
"I need a few more days. Just give me a few more days." I say before I leave. I am not going to turn my back on my family. Brian isn't going to take my family down.

(Brian P.O.V.)

I decided to give what information I had to the Sergeant today. I don't think it's Dom. I won't let August's brother go to jail. I walk into the house.

"My superiors are flying in from D.C., in two days. I want something to show. " Bilkins says.
"We've got a fence with a lube hose in his mouth....automatic weapons, priors on every one of these Asian punks....a garage full of DVD players and generally psychotic behavior. Tell me why we shouldn't move on Tran now and figure it out later?" Serge says.

"Because all we have is behavior. Let me get hard evidence because what we have now is just...." I get cut off.
"What we have is probable cause. And truckers arming themselves for some good old-fashioned vigilante mayhem." Bilkins continues.
"Tell us about Hector, Brian," Serge says.
"Latinos with spear guns. Give me a break." Bilkins says.
"Hector's still working on the engines, but the tires don't match," I say.
"So, Hector is out. And you need to watch yourself when you're sneaking around. Our other agent caught you." Serge says.
"What other agent? Will somebody get me a cigarette?" I explain.
