Retribution and Mission Accomplished

Miguel's car screeched to a halt in front of the dimly lit pharmacy. He had been here before, but this time he had a different purpose. He pulled his mask over his face and stepped out of the vehicle, ignoring the curious glances of the passers-by. The old pharmacist greeted him with a crooked smile as he entered the store.

"Back so soon, eh? Did you use up all the supplies for your little experiment?" he asked, chuckling.

Miguel didn't reply. He handed him a slip of paper with a single word written on it. The pharmacist's smile vanished as he read it. He looked at Miguel with a mixture of concern and disbelief.

"Kid, are you sure you know what you're asking for? This is not something you can just play around with. This is…"

He stopped when he saw the determination in Miguel's eyes. The young man was not here to joke or to bargain. He was here to get what he wanted, no matter the cost. The shopkeeper sighed and just nodded. He went to fetch it for the young man in front of him. 

The old man returned with a small vial. "I don't know where you heard about it or for what use you are going to use it for. This works at moderate amounts kid. Even I don't know how to mix these things. Countless people have failed in doing so." Miguel just nodded and paid for it. He just exited the shop and just drove back home.

Miguel woke up with a start the next morning pretty late. His late-night grocery shopping took a bit more time than he would like it to. He just moved his joints a bit and just did a set of hundred push ups and just went downstairs after his morning rites.

As the next day will be thanksgiving, his parents were in a bit of hurry about buying groceries and arranging things. They entrusted Miguel to take out the trash and to fetch some dresses that was given for dry cleaning.

Miguel just cleaned the house as instructed and took out the garbage. He got ready and just went out to pick up the dresses from dry cleaning. He got back home and decided to check his armoury and made sure that everything is in good condition. 

He had ample time to prepare for his upcoming battle. He made sure to keep tabs on Braga and his men around the clock. He had to be sure that there won't be any surprises tonight. 

Soon it was evening and his parents had returned from their work and shopping. They had dinner at seven and Miguel just got out of the house with his parents' permission. He had to emulate a phone call with a fake friend to do it, but he after a little begging and promises of doing the dishes for a week. He got out of the house and walked towards a secluded place and when nobody was watching he summoned his car and drove it to the destination. As soon as he reached the warehouse, he heard a familiar ding. He had received the mission.

"Mission Alert.

< DO YOU ACCEPT THE MISSION: YES/NO >

<No Time Restraints>

He just pressed yes without much thinking. He hid his car in his space and just decided to walk towards the warehouse and enter it without alerting anyone inside. His AI helped evade any form of surveillance and he just got to a hiding place to wait for Braga and his men arrive.

Meanwhile Dominic and Brian were at the warehouse where the police had set up a 'trap' for Braga and this time they were ready. If they previously didn't have anything on Arturo Braga, now Brian have brought them the crucial data, the identity of Braga and now they had a chance to capture him and put an end to his operations.

"Do you seriously think that they will let me walk Brian?" Dom asked Brian. He knew that he was facing a long prison sentence for his past actions, unless Brian could pull off a miracle. Brian was a bit uncomfortable because he himself was sceptical about the deal he made for Dom. 

"Yeah, Dom… you will walk away as a free man." Brian tried to sound optimistic. Dom just scoffed at Brian's response. "I see that you still leave out socks for the Santa Brian." He said making Brian smile a little awkwardly. 

After a while Braga along with his entourage arrived at the scene. There were two SUVs and a Lincoln accompanying the green Grand Torino which Fenix drove, with Braga on his side seat. They came to a halt.

The men got out and secured the perimeter. Fenix got out of the car and walked forwards. "Did you drop this… do you want it back?" he just showed his gun that he used to 'kill' Letty to Dom to make him provoked. But Dom just bit down his anger and waited. 'Kid, if you have something planned, better do it now.' Dom thought in his mind as he knew once the police acts, his chances at a revenge was slim. He just glared at Fenix who was being restrained by Braga or Ramon Campos, as he was charading.

Brian just looked at an approaching Braga after calming Fenix down. "Mi amigos, Braga sends his regards. Don't worry about him, he's harmless." He looked at Fenix who was glaring at Dom. "And …." Before he could finish his words, he heard gunshots. When Braga turned back, he saw four members of his team was already dead. 

Just as both Braga and Fenix along with the others were distracted, Dom lunged at Fenix and tackled him down as Brian shouted in is intercom to the SWAT team who were ready. The swat moved in. but before they could reach the scene, four soda cans flew out of nowhere and exploded into smoke. And there was pandemonium.

Braga's men were dying out in a very fast rate. Giselle was smart enough to get out of the smoke and take cover. Fenix and Dom were having a struggle for strength and Fenix was parrying heavy punches and was having a hard time. Braga wanted to escape in his car. He rushed towards it. 

The fight was in full throttle and the smoke added more confusion to it. It was though, every single one of Braga's men inside the smoke was being hunted by a ghost. There were gunshots in all directions and Brian was trying to locate the escaping Braga. Braga was panicking as he was blocked by a SWAT personnel. Suddenly the SWAT agent was hit from behind by a gun and he went unconscious. Braga was stunned and elated at the same time. "Sir, come-on let's get out of here." Braga heard his saviour say. He just nodded and went towards Fenix's car. Braga sat on the side seat while the other man just took the car and rushed out making Brian who witnessed it, rush towards the car. Giselle was in the way distracted by another federal agent that she didn't see the car coming towards her. Brian just lunged towards Giselle and just saved her from being ran over. Brian just cursed helplessly while Giselle had a complicated expression.

Meanwhile Fenix and Dominic were having a very heated fight. Fenix, even though lacked in strength had good skills when it came to fighting, unlike Dom who was depending on his brute force and rough techniques to keep up. Fenix dodged one of the punches and took out a knife and slashed towards Dom. He got slashed on his arms and started to bleed. Fenix also saw the opportunity as Dom had a bullet wound from his previous nights encounter. Fenix took advantage of it and pressed it making Dom wince and grunt in pain. But instead of making him weaker, it just made him angrier.

Dom landed a devastating right hook to Fenix's jaw, sending him sprawling to the ground. Dom jumped on top of him and began raining down punches, his fists connecting with Fenix's face with sickening thuds.

Fenix tried to fight back, but Dom was too strong. Dom's arms were bleeding but he kept on pummeling. He then grabbed Fenix by the throat and squeezed, his fingers digging into his flesh. Fenix's eyes bulged as he struggled to breathe.

Dom leaned in close and growled in Fenix's ear, "This is for Letty."

Then, with a savage roar, Dom headbutted Fenix, his forehead slamming into Fenix's nose with a sickening crunch. Fenix's nose broke, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

Fenix screamed in pain and tried to push Dom away, but Dom was too heavy. He continued to pound away at Fenix's face, his fists becoming bloodied and bruised.

Finally, Fenix went limp. Dom just sat down near the dead body, panting heavily. He looked down at Fenix's battered face and felt a sense of satisfaction. He had avenged Letty's death. 

By then the fight was over and the SWAT had already surrounded Dominic. They just pointed the gun at him while one just came forward and cuffed him. Brian rushed to the scene but looking at the dead body of Fenix he knew that he was too late. Brian just went forward. "What have you done Dom? He could have led us to straight to Braga and now he's gone" Brian sounded very frustrated and tired. But Dom just smiled at him meaningfully. Brian didn't know what it meant.

As the drama was unfolding in the warehouse, Braga was eager to get to cross the border and was happy that he could escape. He was annoyed that his team was gone, but they were replaceable and within months he could get back in business. 

"I don't know how to thank you; Braga always remembers his benefactors. I will make sure that you are rewarded well for your services." Braga sounded grateful when he thanked the driver. The driver just looked at the man. He suddenly braked causing Braga to fall forward and Braga hit his head on the dash. He suddenly felt a stinging pain on his neck and when he looked sideways, he saw that the driver had removed his bandana mask revealing a teenager. It was none other than Miguel and he had a syringe in his hand.

Braga was surprised but he suddenly felt like he was floating and things around him started to blur. He was high. He wanted to raise his voice but it seemed that whatever the teenager injected him was making him unable to.

"Don't faint on me yet Braga, we have a lot to talk." Miguel said to Braga who was struggling to stay awake.

"What I gave you is a very potent serum that was used by the Americans during cold war on captured Russian agents to extract information. So, lets start our little session." Miguel said while still driving the car. He pulled up into a very deserted area that looked barren and faced a cliff.

"Now, lets start from some simple questions. What is your name?" He asked Braga while tapping Braga's face to keep him awake. Braga slurred for a bit but eventually answered it. "Artur..o … B.. bb..Braga" Braga slurred. 

Miguel then proceeded to ask some more basic questions to test whether the drug was working. After seeing that it was effective, he asked the question he wanted to ask. "Where is Letty? Is she with Owen Shaw?" Braga upon hearing this just grunted a barely legible yes. Miguel let out a sigh. "Where can I find Shaw?" Miguel asked half expectantly. "Nobody k..knows…He fi..finds you" Miguel was expecting such an answer, but was still dissatisfied. Further questionings proved that he was indeed unaware of Owen Shaw's or Letty's current location.

"Well it's been a pleasure Mr. Braga" Miguel just send him to death by putting him in the space. As soon as he did that, he heard his system alert indicating he had completed his missions. Talking about the space, he looked at the duffel bag he snatched from the car which the fake Braga was hiding. It had two million dollars in it. He couldn't help but laugh as he was rich overnight.

He just put Fenix's car into his system space and just summoned his car. It was already midnight and he just drove into darkness.
