Nathan O'Conner, the older brother of Brian, never expected to find himself caught between family loyalty and his duty as a cop. When he's assigned to track the Toretto team, including the fierce Letty Ortiz, he's prepared for resistance, but nothin...
Nathan O'Conner pulls up to the Toretto garage, having just left Harry's auto shop where his brother is "getting" a job.
"Hello?" Nathan asks as he walks inside the Toretto garage in hopes of getting a job there. "What do you need?" Letty asks as she rolls out from under one of the cars in the garage. "I was wondering if this place was looking for a mechanic," Nathan tells her with a smirk as they check each other out. "If you don't mind waiting the owner should be back soon and he can answer that," Letty explains as she smiles at Nathan. "I'm back Letty," Dom says as he looks at Nathan warily. "What can I do for you?" "I was wondering if you needed a mechanic. Harry told me that this would be the best place to work at," Nathan explains to him with a shrug. "You know cars?" Dom asks as he sizes Nathan up. "Definitely," Nathan answers him with a nod. "Which car is yours?" Dom asks him as they walk out of the garage.

"The 1971 Jensen Interceptor," Nathan says with a smirk causing Dom to look between the car and him confused. "Really?" Dom asks him shocked. "Nothing beats American Muscle," Nathan answers as he crosses his arms over his chest. Nathan knew that if his brother was there, he would be rolling his eyes. "He ain't wrong," Letty says with a smirk as she admires the car. "You race?" Dom asks as he walks around the car. "Occasionally," Nathan answers as he sits on the hood. "You know of any races around here?" "Yeah but nobody's beat me," Dom tells him with a smirk. "You new to the area?" "Just moved here two days ago. That's why I'm looking for a job," Nathan answers causing Dom to nod. "Where you from?" Dom asks him as Letty walks over to them. "Arizona," Nathan answers him as he glances at Letty. "I'll tell you what Mr. Arizona, if you can fix that car with the tools in that garage then you can have a job here," Dom explains as he points at a car in the shop causing Nathan to smile. "That easy?" Nathan asks him causing Dom to nod. "You got yourself a deal..." Nathan realizes that even though he knows who Dom is, Dom hadn't actually told him his name. "Dominic Toretto," Dom finishes for him with a smile. "You can call me, Dom." "Nathan O'Conner," Nathan says as he shakes his hand before he starts walking towards the garage. "He owns you now," Letty says with a smirk as she walks past Nathan.
A few days later, Nathan became an official part of the Toretto crew when he almost beat Dom in a race.
TWO MONTHS LATER
The phone rings in the office of the garage causing Dom to answer it as he recognizes the number. "Just packed up a real money load, and it's coming your way. Look for "Rodgers" on the truck's side. Don't forget my share of the deal," The guy says causing a smirk to come to Dom's face. He tells the team before they head out to get their Honda Civics. They quickly find the truck they are looking for. Letty quickly pulls in front of the truck as Dom and Leon get on either side of it. Jesse stands through the sunroof and shoots out the glass to the truck. Letty speeds up before Dom pulls in behind her and Vince stands through his sunroof. Letty drops back to where Dom was as Vince jumps onto the truck before driving the truck down a road where there are construction signs and cones. Leon pulls back behind the truck as it becomes a one lane and Letty slides underneath the truck until the lane opens up again. They then deliver the truck before getting paid.
The next morning after everyone got up, they decided to join Mia and Dom at the diner. "Hey, Mia," Nathan says with a nod as he sits at the counter. "The usual?" Mia asks as he flips through a magazine. "Yeah, thanks," Nathan answers with a smile before Mia fixes him a turkey sandwich.
Nathan looks up from his magazine as his brother enters the shop, sitting at the counter. "Tuna on white, no crust, right?" Mia asks as she looks up at Brian with a smirk. Nathan couldn't believe that it had been close to a month of Brian trying to get in with the team and Brian still hadn't made his way into the Toretto family. "I don't know. How is it?" Brian asks causing Nathan to roll his eyes. "Every day, for the last three weeks, you've come here, asking how the tuna is. Now, it was crappy yesterday. It was crappy the day before. And guess what? It hasn't changed," Mia says with a smirk before glancing at Nathan. "You can even ask Nathan and he only tried it once." "I'll have the tuna," Brian says with a smile before he opens his magazine. "No crust?" Mia asks as she looks at Brian for confirmation. "No crust," Brian confirms with a smile before Mia goes to fix the sandwich. "Tuna on white, no crust," Mia says with a smirk as she sets the sandwich down in front of Brian. "Thank you," Brian says before going to take a bite of the sandwich. Mia notices the magazine that he is looking at before taking it and flipping it to a certain page. Nathan looks up as he hears the sound of four engines approaching, knowing that it had to be the team. Nathan walks outside as the team crowds around Vince's car. "Talk to me, Jesse. This ain't working, brother," Vince says as soon as he is out of his car. They all gather around the hood of his car with Letty, Nathan, and Leon on one side with Jesse and Vince on the other side. "It's your fuel map. It's got a nasty hole. That's why you're unloading in third," Jesse explains as he looks under the hood. "I told you it was third," Leon says as he nudges Vince, who sends him a glare. "I'll lengthen the injector pulse a millisecond. Just tune the NOS timer, you'll run nines," Jesse says before Vince grabs his head to face it towards a bright red truck. "What's up with this fool? Is he sandwich-crazy?" Vince questions as they all look inside to see a Brian talking to Mia, who is smiling at Brian. "No. He ain't here for the food, dog," Leon says causing Nathan to roll his eyes at their childish behavior. "Chill out. He's slinging parts for Harry, man," Letty defends as she lightly slaps Leon. "I know what he's slinging," Vince says before they start walking towards the diner. "He's trying to get in Mia's pants, dog," Leon says as he continues to instigate.
"What's up, guys?" Mia says with a smile as they walk inside . Jesse and Leon head over to the sunglasses rack as Vince sits down beside the man at the counter. "How you living, girl?" Letty asks as she leans on the counter beside Nathan causing him to smile. Letty looks over at Nathan. "Want something to drink?" "Sure," Nathan says with a nod before walking over to the coolers. "He's beautiful," Jesse says as he messes with a pair of sunglasses. "I like his haircut," Leon says as he grabs a bag of chips. "Vince!" Mia calls causing Nathan to look over and find Vince glaring at the blonde. "What?" Vince asks as he looks at Mia. "Can I get you anything?" Mia asks him back. "You look good," Vince tells Mia causing Brian to glare at him. "Thanks a lot, Mia. See you tomorrow," Brian says as he sets down the money for the sandwich.
"Try Fatburger from now on. Get yourself a Double Cheese burger with fries for $2.95, faggot," Vince yells as he walks after Brian. "I like the tuna here," Brian retorts barely glancing back at Vince. "Bullshit. No one likes the tuna here," Vince argues as he follows Brian and Nathan definitely couldn't argue that point. "Yeah, well, I do," Brian says before Vince slams him into his truck. Brian quickly turns around and punches Vince, which sends him to the ground. "Jesus Christ, Dom! Would you get out there?" Mia yells as she rushes to the back where Dom is. "I'm sick of this shit. I'm not kidding, Dom. Get out there!" Dom slowly stands and they look to see Brian repeatedly punching Vince. "What did you put in that sandwich?" Dom asks his sister causing Nathan to look at him in shock since he is letting his friend get beat up. "That's really funny," Mia says sarcastically. "Dom!" Letty says as she sees Brian take Vince to the ground. "All right," Dom says before heading outside with everyone following him besides Mia. "Hey, man. He was in my face," Brian says after Dom throws him up against one of the cars. "I'm in your face," Dom tells him as Vince stands up and tries to go after Brian again. Dom quickly shoves him back. "Relax! Don't push it! You embarrass me!" "Get over there!" Leon yells at Vince as he shoves him away from Dom and Brian. Letty, Nathan, and Leon form a wall between Vince and the others. Jesse picks up the guys wallet off the ground. "Jesse, give me the wallet," Dom says before Jesse brings him the wallet. "'Brian Earl Spilner.' Sounds like a serial killer name. Is that what you are?" "No, man," Brian answers him. "Don't come around here again," Dom orders before turning to walk over to the rest of the team. "Hey, man. This is bullshit," Brian says causing Nathan to send him a glare. "You work for Harry, right?" Dom asks as he turns back to look at Brian. "Yeah. I just started," Brian answers him confused. "You were just fired," Dom says before they all start heading back inside. Nathan looks at his brother, shaking his head before following the others inside. After Dom tries getting Brian fired, they go to get ready for the race that night.
