I was drinking a cup of coffee when someone knocked on my door. I frowned. Only my mom knew where I lived and she would have called ahead.... I picked up a gun and cocked it before I walked to the door. I peaked out and my frown deepened. Why would Nobody be at my door? I opened the door and looked at him.
"What do you want?" I asked.
Some kid walked over, speaking before anyone else could get a word out.
"Hello Mrs. Shaw." He said. "We have need of your assistance. We'll let you get dressed before we take you to our base."
I cocked a brow. "Excuse me? Two things you messed up there. One, I go by Mister now. Two, you won't be taking me anywhere, bud."
I went to close the door when he stopped me.
"Your wife and brother will be there. But of course, if your willing to let them die then by all means, we'll leave."
I yanked open the door and put my gun to his head.
"You better explain right now, Nobody. Before I blow this kid's ass to kingdom come."
~~~~~
I walked into the room that held Tej, Roman, Ramsey, Hobbs, Allison and Letty. Letty stood up as I closed the door behind me. I opened my mouth to say something when she punched me in the jaw. I caught her second blow and turned her. Now, she was pinned against the wall with her arms above her head. I rubbed my jaw.
"You still got that swing." I said.
She glared. "You better start explaining, Ace."
I nodded. "After I left, I changed alot of things. My looks, since I like being more of a guy than a girl. But I'm still female. Changed my name to Ace officially as well. Then I got my own house. I was gonna come get you when I figured, she's probably over me already. So I stayed where I was. Then this fucker came to my house and told me you would be here. Well, I couldn't pass that up. So I came."
She still glared at me so I just dropped her arms.
"I don't have time to explain this." I said, running my hands through my hair. "Alright kid. You've got me here now-"
Before I could even finish my sentence Letty spun me back around and kissed me. My hands instinctively went to her waist before we pulled apart. I smiled down at her before speaking again.
"You've got me here, now start explaining why."
"Are you familiar with this woman?"
I turned around and my smile dropped. I let my hands drop from Letty's waist as I fully turned.
"Yeah." I said. "That's Cipher."
Mr. Nobody nodded. "Yes it is. I would also like everyone to greet our other set of hands."
We all turned around and my instincts kicked in. I grabbed Letty, pulling her closer to me as Deckard walked in. He looked at me up and down before he nodded.
"You look good as a guy." He said.
I glared. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm here for Cipher."
"You gonna apply for a job, head asshole?" Hobbs asked.
"You know; I think that shirt cuts off the blood flow to your head. You should get bigger sizes." Then he turned to everyone else. "Cipher came to me first. Asked me to get the nightshade device for her. When I said no she went to my brother. Used him then left him for dead."
"Oh yes." Nobody said. "Who could forget brother Owen?"
Owen's picture came up on the screen and I felt Letty rub my arm. I took a breath before I walked over to where Nobody was standing. Which was right next to Deckard and Hobbs; who were staring each other down. I stepped between them.
"I may hate Deckard, but I would rather the only family I have at the moment be living and well." I said with a glare to both of the men. "Nobody, where is Owen?"
"He's a wonderful guest at a nasty little black site prison." He answered. "We get Cipher, I might get you a visit."
I pondered for a moment before I held out my hand.
"Deal."
He smiled. "Wonderful! Now, does anyone know how to find Dom?"
"Use God's eye." Roman said.
I nodded. "Good idea."
~~~~~
Well, that was shit. I stood next to Letty, trying not to freak out because my brother was in the room behind me. I hated that I was scared of him, but he could have fucking killed me and he almost did! As the dots went down to one, Mr. Nobody looked at the screen with interest.
"This is interesting." He said.
"Why?" Lil Nobody asked.
"Because that's here."
That's when the whole place exploded. I groaned as I landed on the ground. I saw Deckard pinned underneath a door and tried to get up. But when I saw that blonde bitch, I tried harder. Someone shot the windows above Letty's head and I grimaced. I heard someone talking but I couldn't make out the words. As I saw Cipher leaving, my eyes landed on Dominic. Allison called for him.
"Dom!"
He turned to her, his whole face showing a war of emotions.
"You're just gonna turn your back on family?"
Cipher walked over to him and kissed him. I kept thinking he would push her away, but he didn't. As they left, I pulled myself up. It wasn't long after they had left that people came in and helped us. I was sitting on the stairs with Letty between my legs, my head in her neck. Allison was sitting on a different set of stairs. I heard Hobbs speak to her.
"You okay?" He asked.
"That wasn't him." We all looked at her. "I don't know what she's got on him, but that wasn't Dom."
"Brian would know what to do."
"No!" Letty said, standing up. "We can't bring Brian and Mia into this. We agreed on that."
I walked over to where she was pacing and held her arms so that she was facing me.
"Calm down baby." I whispered. "Allison."
She looked up at me and I walked over, kneeling down in front of her.
"We'll get Dom, we'll get Cipher, and then we'll be done with this shit." I said.
She nodded and I hugged her.
~~~~~
Now, Hobbs and Deckard were almost at each other's throats again. I finally had enough and snapped.
"Just shut up!"
Everyone looked at me as I walked over to Hobbs.
"I don't give a fuck if you like him or not, but you're gonna get along and help find Dom. Otherwise, I'm gonna be the one to send you to the hospital this time. As for you;" I turned to Deckard. "Find Dom and the bitch. Because I have a brother I want to see, even though he tried to fucking kill me! I love him, and I love you. So find Dominic or I'll just send both of you idiots to the hospital and find him myself!"
Tej looked at me. "You alright, man?"
"No." I snapped. "No, I'm not. She's done enough, and now she's torn my best friend apart. I'm gonna kill her."
Everyone was looking at me as Letty walked over. I looked down at her and she hugged me. I hugged her back, burying my head into her neck. She pulled me over to a chair and made me sit down before she walked behind me and began to rubs soothing circles in the base of my neck where it met my spine and shoulders. Hobbs looked at Deckard.
"You know where Toretto's going?"
"Yeah. New York."
