"Mmm-hmm." Roman's voice comes from across the room. I was under my car, making some repairs, and I emerge from under that, and wipe my hands using a cloth. "This is crazy man."

"What are you talking about now?" Tej asks.

"Am I the only one seeing this?" Roman questions.

"You're the only one seeing a lot of things, Rome." I tell him, amused, and throw the cloth in my hand, at Blake's face, and he give me a hard glare, as he swats the cloth away, but I just smirk at him. "You gotta specify."

"I'm sitting here, looking at these images; it's like we're hunting our evil twins." Roman tells us, walking beside the screens, displaying all the members of Shaw's team. "Look at this black dude right here, he's handsome." He stops at the first screen, and points towards it. "Clearly that's me."

I stifle a laugh, and Roman looks at me sharply, so I raise my arms in and innocent manner, and he continues.

"This is a white Hobbs. This is Han." He points, and stops again, looking at Tej. "Tej, it's an African in a beanie, that's like your mini-me, man." Tej just shakes his head, and looks back to his computer screens, as Roman laughs, and call out to Brian. "And, Brian!" Brian looks at him. "When did you do this photo shoot?" I laugh, as Brian smiles, and shows Roman his middle finger, and Roman shakes his head. "I'm just playing, man. You know, you're the prettiest blonde around here."

"Hey!" I yell playfully.

"You're pretty too, shortcake." Roman tells me.

"I know." I fake pout, in a baby voice. "But I wanna be the prettiest."

Gisele smiles at me and I return it.

"The only thing, missing in Shaw's team is an evil version of shortcake here." Roman tells us.

"Oh, I don't know, Rome." I reply. "I think I'm pretty evil on my own."

Hobbs truck pulls up, ending our conversation, as he jumps out.

"Alright, lock it up." Hobbs announces. "We got two things. First off, this is the worst damn city in the world, to commit a crime. They got cameras on every street corner. I got video footage from CCTV of the raid." He hands a pen-drive to Tej. "Let's track that, see where it leads us. Secondly, we just got confirmation on what Shaw's crew grabbed from Interpol." We all form a circle, and as Dom and Brian stand behind a table, I jump and sit on it, between them. "They ripped off the database of every location that houses the final component they need."

"So, where are the at?" Brian asks, from my right.

"There are over two dozen of them, around Europe." Riley tells us.

"But the list is only good for 96 hours." Hobbs tells us. "Which means, whatever Shaw's crew is going to hit next, it's going to happen within the next four days. They got a window, and so do we. We gotta move."

"Hobbs is right." Dom announces. "So, let's break this down. We met them. What do we know?"

"We know, they have to be running custom engines." Tej starts. "You heard that flip car, going through those gears."

"Sequential transmission." Han tells us.

"That didn't sound like a normal engine." Gisele says.

"That was a turbo diesel." Brian tells her.

"It sounded like something you hear at a Le Mans." I comment.

"Did you see it take all those hits, and still stay flat at the corners?" Tej asks.

"Yeah, hydraulics." Roman answers.

"Or magnetic suspension." Brian adds.

"Who not only has access to the components, but can fabricate something like that?" Han asks

"Maybe a handful of shops in London." I say.

"Regular tuner shops aren't going to cut it, on this one." Dom adds. "We're gonna have to dig deeper that that."

We all sigh, and after a second of silence, Dom speaks up.

"Han, Gisele, Roman, you're up." Dom tells them. "We find the guy, who made that car, we find Shaw."

Gisele cocks her gun, making a clicking noise. "Let's go." She says.

Immediately, all three of them got up and made their way towards the exit, when Riley spoke up.

"I'll help." She chimes in, as Gisele walks past her.

"Roger that." Hobbs tells Riley.

"Tej, Valarie, we're gonna need cars without chips, that can be overridden." Dom says, and turning to Tej. "Make sure they're fast."

Me and Tej both chuckle.

"Do you know me, like, at all?" I ask Dom, amused.

"We got this." Tej tells Dom.

"I'm already on it, Dom." Hobbs interjects. "I've already contacted R&D at DSS."

"Hobbs." Tej, says slowly. "I said, we got this."

Dom smirks, and turns to me and Brian. "This should be interesting."

I jump off the table, with an amused smile. "And, lucky for me, amusing."
