Third pov
Phoenix put her hair into a ponytail and grabbed her gun. The GPS was downloading cordinates and she knew hers and Carters plan had just started.
She hoped it would work.
She hated surprises.
The warehouse she drove into was full when she reached it. She was the last to arrive.
One of the guys came to check her car for trackers. She kept her face bored meanwhile.
When everything was done they opened the back of the truck and started loading cars.
Phoenix was loaded after Brian and would be the first to roll out.
The trip to the border was more boring than she throught it would be. She couldn't even play games on her phone, in the end she decided to go visit Brian and rely a piece of information.
Stretching her legs felt great but she was still quick as she slipped a note through his window.
Brian opened the note and his face crinkled in confusion.
I know who Braga is. And when we reach our destination his first order will be to kill all of us."
She put a finger to her lips before going back to her car.
Time skip
After arriving and being briefed they were sent on their way.
Phoenix only began feeling her heart beat faster as they reached the stopping point on the other side of the border.
She wasn't sure what Brian and Dom would do but if they did something stupid she didn't want to be caught in the middle. She frowned.
As soon as they stopped, big, bulky men was almost ripping them out of their cars.
She was incredibly happy her hoddie covered her gun.
"Sloppy! Very sloppy!" Fenix looked like he ate a lemon.
While he and Dom had their confrontation Phoenix prepared for when shit turned sour. And it happened fast.
Dom's car exploded sending the two closest cars into the air.
Phoenix knocked the guy behind her on his ass and ran for the car Brian had taken.
A sharp pain went through her shoulder just as she threw herself inside, shortly followed by Toretto.
"Phoenix, how you holding up?" Brian wasn't entierly sure why he asked, but she was friends with Tej and the others and he supposed they had at least been acquaintances. He saw her face looking pained.
She shook her head as she looked at her hand that had been holding her shoulder. "I've been shot."
Dom didn't know the lady in the backseat and sent Brian a questioning look.
The man shook his head. "Later."
Brian tied the strip of cloth to stop the bleeding. "That should help. Though you will need some kind of medical attention."
She smiled, face pale. "Thanks. What did your boss say?"
"He wants me to bring in Dom and the drugs." Was the only thing he said before going to where the other man stood.
Phoenix followed. She knew she needed to call Carter but they needed to find a safer place first.
"You need a doctor." She said, seeing the blood dropping down his arm.
"We need to hide this."
"I got a place." Brian stated.
Time skip
Phoenix said no to coming with them, instead saying she would meet them later because she had something they needed to know.
Conections were useful. Sure, she already knew that but appreciated it even more when she was being stitched up and Carter almost interrogated her on what happened.
"I said i would meet up with them later. You need to come with."
He didn't argue.
Vote and comment, it keeps me motivated :)
