Ride or Die /// Fast and the Furious (Movie 4) /// Book Two

Pardon?

In a courtroom, Dom and Anna were in orange prison jumpsuits, handcuffed, awaiting their hearing.

Brian, Mia and Jo were in the crowd.

The judge tapped his gavel twice. "All rise." Everyone stood. The judge took his place. "Please be seated." Everyone sat down. "Please rise, Mr. Toretto and Miss Li." Dom and Anna stood. "I've listened to the testimony and taken into special consideration Agent O'Conner's appeal of clemency on behalf of these two. That their actions directly resulted in the apprehension of known dug trafficker Arturo Braga. However, this judiciary finds that one right does not make up for a lifetime worth of wrongs. And, as such, I find that I am forced to level the maximum sentence under California law."

Brian stood, walking away, leaving.

    ✯    

Prisoners were loaded onto the prison transport bus, including Dom and Anna.

"Dominic Toretto. Anna Li. You are hearby sentenced to serve at the Lompoc maximum security prison system without the possibility of early parole. This court is adjourned."

    ✯    

On the road, the prison transport bus drove along.

Anna was sitting behind the driver, chained.

Dom was sitting at the back of the bus in the other aisle, chained.

Outside, four racer cars drove toward the the prison transport bus.

In one car, was Brian.

In another car, was Mia.

In the third car, was Jo.

In the fourth car, was Tego and Don. They were both arguing intelligibly in Spanish.

 Mia drove to the right of the prison transport bus.

Jo drove around the prison transport bus to the front.

Brian drove to the left of the prison transport bus.

Tego and Don drove behind the prison transport bus.

Inside the bus, the prisoners heard the car engines.

Dom smirked knowingly.

Anna looked over her shoulder toward Dom, smirking.

They knew they weren't even going to make it to the prison before they got broke out by their family.
