As the truck came to a stop, the door opened making everyone start their vehicles before pulling out of the truck and parking

"Welcome to Mexico, guys" Gisele spoke while clicking away on her tablet

"There are helicopters and surveillance cameras that scan for heat signatures at the border, but there are blind spots that I can guide you through via satellite" Gisele explained but Sage's focus was on the men that were loading the shipment into her car, she didn't really need to pay attention seeing that she had been through this countless times

"There can be no margin of error, so you must follow my every direction. Any questions?" Gisele concluded

There was a few seconds of silence before Dom's husky voice spoke "I thought Fenix was gonna be here" Dom's words made Sage silently sigh, she hadn't caught on why Dom was so keen on Fenix

"He'll meet you out there" The answer made Dom frown, as she locked eyes with him for a few seconds before awkwardly looking down at the device she had in her hands once again

"All right, everybody sync up" Gisele said making all the drivers pull out their GPS and begin to enter their cars "Goodluck, ladies and gentlemen"

"Vaya con Dios" Sage shot a quick nod at Gisele as she passed her before entering her car

Sage made herself comfortable in her car seat as the 5 cars drove in a triangular shape

"Satellite link-up engaged, keep proceeding northbound at current speed" Gisele's voice boomed from the GPS, a car accelerating and passing Sage caught her attention, immediately recognized as Fenix

"Stay close to Fenix, he'll lead you across" All cars formed one straight line, everyone speeding up to keep up with Fenix, Sage could already see the border and the red flashing security cameras.

"Hurry ut up, you guys have been tagged"

"Already?" Sage muttered, but quickly shaking of the weird feeling by speeding up, her attention was flickered by a car zooming past her making her eyebrows furrow in confusion

"Oh, shit" Brian and Sage spoke in unison when they realized who had pulled out of the lane "Torreto, get back in formation!"

Dom swerved behind Fenix making the rest have to back up but quickly pick speed up again, to be able to enter the tunnel, Sage already made the math in her head, they had less time now, and for that they needed to rush even more then they'd already be supposed to

"They're sending a helicopter, you have 30 seconds" Gisele raised her voice which didn't really help Sage "The windows closing fast!"

"You need to get out of there before they send ground support" The yellow hellacat ran into one of the columns, making it collaps and forcing both Brian and Sage to turn the opposite direction that they were supposed to

"Fuck" Sage gritted through her teeth gripping the steering wheel tighter before speeding up "15 seconds!"

"God woman can't you just shut up for 1 second" Sage let out a frustrated scoff, tightening her grip on the steering wheel "Your running out of time! You need to get out now!"

"Fuck it" Sage gritted through her teeth as she smashed against the columns, allowing her a entrance to the right path again, which she and Brian took, the duo barely making it out as the metal door closed the tunnel, she sighed in relief before continuing on the straight street

"Sloppy!" Fenix's deep voice spoke as he got out of his vehicle. Sage ran her hands though her hair then to her face, covering it as she slouched back in her car seat

"Very sloppy"

"C'mon, pa' fuera! i'Salte!" The henchmen yelled making the drivers step out of their vehicles

"Come on, still today, let's go" The henchman's hand reached for Sage's wrist making her swat it away "Don't you fucking touch me"

The woman didn't even notice the commotion going on until she saw Fenix holding a gun to one of the unknown drivers

"Hey, boss man!" The voice caught everyone's attention as all eyes fell on Dom "What did you say?"

"I said only pussies run nitro-meth"

"You looked under my hood?" Silence fell on everyone as Fenix approached Dom "I'm talkin' to you, you got something on your mind?" 

" '70 Plymouth, her name was Letty"

And that's when the pieces connected in Sage's puzzle, Dom's behavior, why he was here, why Brian was here, everything, she quickly came to the realization that the woman that Fenix had killed that night, was Dom's girlfriend that Sage never met

Her eyes grew wide as she jumped from her leaning position, going towards the two men but pausing in her pace when Fenix whipped his head and gun towards Sage

"Stay out of this" Fenix stated, shooing her backwards, not letting the woman get involved "And somebody wrecked her car"

"I wrecked her car" Fenix spoke with no hesitation whatsoever, the flashbacks running through Sage's mind

"You remember her face? Huh? 'Cause I don't, last time I saw it, it was burning" Fenix added, and somehow Sage could perfectly remember Letty's face, even if she didn't experience it first hand

Fenix's gun clicked making everyone's eyes fall on the weapon "Now what?"

"I'm gonna enjoy what happens next" A smirk rises on Dom's face and somehow Sage's eyes flickered to Dom's car that was filling up with gas, the womans eyes doubling in size

Before any more words could come out of anyone's mouth, Dom's car exploded, flames spreading throughout all the vehicles, causing even more heat

Sage's tiny figure was swept off of the ground, sending her flying backwards, and making her fall right into a pile of glass shards, making her let out a yelp and a grunt, she glanced to her leg, blood streaming out of a deep cut on her upper leg

"Shit" Sage chocked on air, she had no choice but to reach for the gun beside her and start shooting, defending herself as much as she could, until the gun had no more bullets

"Dom, get in!" Brian yelled as he waited for Dom to get into the car, Dom's eyes scanned the area before landing on Sage, he hesitated at first but then quickly ran towards Sage, picking her tiny figure up with ease, before running to the car where Brian was waiting

Him gently placing Sage in the backseat, shutting the door and then getting in the car himself
