Family Before Everything

15.5

"You ready?" Hobbs asks Elena as he leads the charge towards the police station.
"I'm ready," Elena says before Hobbs turns, crashing through the first gate then knocking down the second. Dom and Brian follow behind Hobbs through the parking garage. Hobbs crashes through the wall creating a hole before reversing out of it. Dom and Brian back up to the hole before getting out of their cars. Hobbs and Elena get out of their car as they fire at the officers running their way. Dom and Brian each attach a hook to the vault before getting back into their cars. Brian and Dom start to drive off causing the vault to break out of the wall before sliding across the ground behind them. Dom's back windshield is shot out at they leave the police station.
"Call it out, Mia, Carrie," Dom says over the walkie.
"You've got a straight shot for two blocks," Mia responds over the walkie. "Go right."
"Got it," Brian tells her over the walkie. Brian pulls his emergency brake as they turn right to keep the vault from dragging them with it.
"Well, the plan is working," Carrie says over the walkie. "You guys have every corrupt cop in Rio on your tail. You have to move fast."
"What's the best route?" Brian asks over the walkie.
"Okay, keep going straight another half mile onto Rua Fonseca," Mia answers him. "And then go left."
"That ain't going to work," Dom tells her as three cop cars block the left. Another stops in front of them before rolling out spikes.
"Spikes ahead, Dom. We got spikes," Brian quickly says.
"We're going right!" Dom orders before two cop cars come from the right.
"No, it's too tight, we're not going to fit," Brian tells him.
"We've got no choice. Now!" Dom orders before they turn right causing Dom to drive on the side walk. The vault takes out a cop car before rolling through a building.
"Shit!" Brian says as the vault jerks the cars back before coming out of the building. "Holy shit!"
"Guys, I'm hearing all of this chatter. Did you just take out a bank?" Carrie asks over the walkie.
"Two inbound," Dom says as he sees two cop cars heading towards them.
"All right, there's an alley coming up on your left," Mia tells him.
"Yeah, I got it," Brian says as he sees the alley. Dom looks at Brian before he turns left with Brian turning right. The two cop cars crash into the vault. Dom tries to pull the vault as they see two cops on bikes coming. Brian puts his car in reverse before pushing the vault as Dom pulls it. The Cop bikers start shooting at Brian, who hits his brakes causing one of the bikers to crash into him. The other biker loses control of his bike as he avoids hitting Brian, who goes back to pushing the vault. They get back on the main road before Brian drives in reverse until he is in front of the vault before hitting his emergency brake causing him to spin around them driving normally.
"All right, good job. Dom," Brian says over the walkie. "Right hander, right here, right hander."
"Guys there is a big group coming at you from the south," Carrie tells them. "You have to do something now!"
"Hey, go wide," Dom orders over the walkie. Brian drives into the sidewalk causing the cables and the vault to knock down street lights which take out the cop cars. A cop then shoots out Brian's back windshield as he gets back on the road. Brian jerks his wheel causing the vault to hit the cop, who drives onto the sidewalk. A cop tries to drive around the vault before Dom jerks his wheel causing the vault to hit the cop, who crashes. The cop on the sidewalk starts shooting at Brian again before Brian uses the vault to hit the parked cars, which move onto the sidewalk causing the cop to crash. A cop gets behind Dom before the passenger leans out the window going to shoot at Dom. Han then appears in a cop car, ramming into the back of the cop behind Dom, causing the cop to crash. Han then hits his brakes causing the cop behind him to rear end him and the cop behind that cop to swerve and crash.
"You're all clear on the left," Han says over the walkie.
"Good afternoon, Officer," Rome says as he appears on the right in his cop car before he slams into a car causing it to crash into the sidewalk. "License and registration, please!" Rome rams another cop car causing it to crash into another cop car. "Yes! This is big boy stuff!" Rome then grabs his walkie. "We're clear on the right."
"Thanks, guys," Dom says over the walkie.
"Any time," Han responds.
"I'll see you on the other side," Rome says before he and Han drive off.
"You guys just carved out a ten second window. Make it count," Carrie tells them before Dom and Brian pass a garbage truck. Dom and Brian start driving across the bridge.
"No! There's too many of them," Brian yells as he sees all of the cops behind them before grabbing his walkie. "Hey! There's too many of them. We're not going to make it."
"You're right, we aren't," Dom tells him before he looks over at Brian sadly. "You are."
"What are you talking about?" Brian asks him.
"Just let the vault go. Get out of there," Carrie begs not wanting to loose anymore of her family.
"Brian, you're a father now," Dom states.
"No, I'm not leaving you," Brian tells him.
"Dom, you stick with the plan!" Mia yells at him.
"It was always the plan," Dom reveals to them. "You all take care of each other."
"Dom, you listen to me now. Okay?" Mia pleads with him. "You cut loose right now." Dom grabs a switch before pushing it causing it to cut Brian's cable loose. Dom spins around facing all the cops as Brian keeps driving from the momentum. Brian knew how heartbroken Mia would be if Dom didn't make it back so he quickly turns around. Dom stands up as Zizi walks away from the wreckage with a gun pointed at him. Zizi goes to fire but he is shot three times before falling to the ground. Dom turns to see Brian with his gun raised.
"I thought I told you to go on," Dom says as Brian stands beside him.
"Yeah, I had to make a call," Brian says causing Dom to smile before Hobbs pulls up. Reyes falls out of the car as Hobbs gets out of his.
"Help me," Reyes begs Hobbs.
"That's for my team, you son of a bitch," Hobbs says as he shoots Reyes twice in the head. Hobbs and Elena walk over to Brian and Dom. "It's a hell of a mess."
"Yeah, it is," Brian agrees with him.
"You know I can't let you two go," Hobbs tells them. "I ain't made that way. The way I see it, you've earned yourselves 24 hours. The money stays, though. If I were you, I'd use the time. Make peace with whatever demons you got left. Because come tomorrow, I will find you." Brian quickly gets into the car as Dom stops at the door.
"Toretto!" Hobbs calls out, causing Dom to look back at Hobbs. "I'll see you soon."
"No, you won't," Dom says with a smirk causing Hobbs to look at him confused before Dom gets into the car. Brian takes off as Hobbs and Elena walk over to the vault. Hobbs opens the vault to find it empty. Hobbs then remembers what he heard over the walkie about the ten second window. Dom and Brian had slid the real vault into the back of the garbage truck that Gisele was driving. Tego and Santos, who were on either side of the garbage truck attached the fake vault to Brian's and Dom's cars. Hobbs lets out a laugh as he turns to watch the car drive off in the distance.
