TFATF Fic - Shock of Silence 9/11
Dec. 26th, 2007 07:29 pmCHAPTER: 9 of 11
AUTHOR: Den
RATING: R (for violence)
PAIRING: N/A
SUMMARY: After TFATF, what becomes of the team?
DISCLAIMER: Vince, Mia, Brian, Dom, Jesse, Leon, Letty and Lance and Johnny Tran all belong to Universal Pictures. I have borrowed them solely for my entertainment and that of my friends, and no gain, financial or otherwise, will be realized from this story. The other characters are a creation of my imagination.
NOTES: The biggest complaint I have heard about TFATF and the stories that have stemmed from it is that the characters are cardboard. One dimensional. It was my hope with this story that I would give more to them. To make them jump out at you and be more than a cardboard cutout. I hope I did that.
FEEDBACK: Well DUH!

Vince looked at Mia in the passenger seat next to him, then down to where her hand was enclosed in his. He wondered what Dom would do if he knew. But then, lately he’d wondered what Dom would do about a lot of things.
"So, we didn’t need to bring any food?" he asked again.
"V! For the tenth time... Teri said she’d take care of it. We’ve got the blankets so we’re all set," she answered again, chuckling.( Read more... )

For the second time in less than a week, the police had been called to the Toretto residence. For the second time in less than a week, Mia waited for a crime scene unit to arrive to cover her life in print dust. For the second time in less than a week, she had Vince’s arms to shield her. This time, she realized they held a promise of more.
"Hey, guys, I’ll wait for CSU if you want to get going."
Mia groaned when she recognized Brian’s voice. She wondered what the hell it would take to get him to leave her alone. "Easy, V," she whispered when she felt him tense.
Brian crossed the room to where they were standing against the wall, surveying the damage as he crossed the room. "You know how to throw one hell of a party, Mia," he smirked.( Read more... )

Vince and Mia slid into an easy silence that grew as the city disappeared behind them. Vince still hadn’t decided where they were going. He wasn’t sure it even mattered as long as no one could find them. He just drove. He didn’t know what he was looking for, but figured he’d know when he saw it.
They’d driven most of the day. When they weren’t driving, they were eating, looking at scenery - anything Vince could think of to try to distract her, even for a minute. It didn’t work though. Even when she smiled, her eyes still had a haunted look and her smiles never reached her eyes.
Mia sat curled in the seat next to him. She’d pulled her sunglasses down onto her nose and had been quiet so long, Vince thought she was sleeping.( Read more... )

"You ready?" he asked. He held his hand out to Mia because he knew she would be reassured by that small amount of contact. Leaving wasn’t easy for her, but he couldn’t think of anything else he could do until they knew who was doing this.
She slipped her hand into his. "As much as I can be. Let’s go."
When she opened the front door moments later, she saw Brian leaning against one of the white posts on the porch. His hands were stuffed deep into his pockets as he stared down at the planks of the deck. Dark sunglasses rested on top of his head, half hidden in unruly blond curls. He stood straight when Mia opened the door. The blue shirt he wore matched his eyes. They moved from a clearly upset Mia, to Vince, then back to Mia.
"Everything okay?"
Mia sighed impatiently and narrowed her gaze on him. "Not today, Brian. I told you last week that I didn’t know where they were."( Read more... )

Vince sat on the couch in the dark as he tried to figure everything out. The cops had come, done their cop thing and gone again. When Vince was locking the door after the cops left, he'd noticed Brian leaning against a telephone pole across the street.
While the cops were there, Vince had learned that Mia hadn't told him everything. During the last few weeks, she had been getting hang-up calls at the store or house and finding dismembered Barbie-doll parts all over the house, including a severed head stuck on top of the ketchup bottle in the refrigerator. When all this had started, something happened every few days. Now, events were getting closer together. Yesterday Mia had found a decapitated Barbie doll hanging in the laundry room, painted with red streaks and one of its feet cut off. When Mia pulled it out of the drawer where she had thrown it in disgust, Vince had had to leave the room before he hurt somebody.
The problem was figuring out who was behind it and Vince had no idea where to begin. Dom was the one with the enemies, not Mia. Vince also knew it had little or nothing to do with him or Leon. Smashing the mirror, breaking her rosary - those were personal.( Read more... )

In her dreams, the bullets always missed Jesse: warning shots, not kill shots. In her dreams, Dom listened to her and didn't go chasing that last truck. And in her dreams, sometimes she even forgave Brian for lying to her.
But dreams faded with the rising sun. In the harsh reality of day, Jesse was dead. Murdered in front of her. Dom and Letty were gone who-knew-where. And Brian . . . well, he was still a liar.
The day Vince was discharged from the hospital, he showed up on the Torettos’ front doorstep. Leon stood next to him, carrying two overflowing duffel bags. They'd moved in over her protests, insisting that Dom wouldn't want her to be home alone.( Read more... )
