Debutants: All (Obviously, in fic), Aiko Watanabe and Regina Watanabe (Proper debut)

San Fransokyo….

Welcome back to San Fransokyo, a high-tech city which is blooming with citizens. Although it is the same San Fransokyo from the previous phases, the infrastructure of the city looked different. There were more vendors selling products in front of a newly-built train station called SF Lines, which was filling up with commuters who were trying to get from one place to another.

Big Hero 6 Base….

As for the heroes, they all gathered in the conference room. They were not wearing their armor.

"Phase 4, phase 4, phase 4, phase 4, PHASE 4!" Fred exclaimed as he celebrated with excitement, dancing around the room, "Setting: Big Hero 6 bas-"

 "No more narrating!" Hiro exclaimed, with his hands on his ears.

Fred stopped dancing and sat on his chair. He looked at his teammates and asked.

"Why? What's bad about narrating?"

"You see, Fred. I know you have a habit of narrating each and every event you or we have been through." Wasabi explained, "But it's too much."

"Wasabi is correct, you have been narrating events for the past few days." Baymax said, "Narrating an event will cause you to lose focus on what you are doing."

"See Fred." Wasabi said, "Just like how you nearly fell through a hole during this one time when you were visiting the hangars when it's still work-in-progress."

One time, as the heroes walked to the exit, Fred took a wrong turn and headed for the hangars, almost falling off a hole Roddy just drilled.

"Yeah. We would've lost a member of our team.." Honey Lemon said, “There was even a time you almost got hit by Hiro when he was parking his scooter in front of mine and Gogo’s apartment.”

“At least I stopped when you’re about to get hit.” Hiro added.

"Well, I guess you're right." Fred said as he got off the table.

As for Gogo, she looked at Hiro with a worried look on her face. Honey and Wasabi felt the same thing as her. They already graduated from SFIT, leaving Hiro to face challenges in his second year.

"Well, tomorrow would be your first time without us in SFIT since the three of us graduated." Gogo said.

"Yeah, the first time being a mentor every morning," Hiro said. 

Fred was very shocked and curious.

"WAIT! Hiro the teacher?!”  Fred exclaimed, “Please tell me if it is real, oh please tell me is it real?!"

"It's a long story.." Hiro said.

Just then, Basemax powered on and said to the team,

"Hiro, Baymax, Fred, Heathcliff have arrived. Please proceed to the hangars.”

"Oop! That's our ride!" Fred chimes with excitement, "Better go now!"

"Okay Freddie!" Honey Lemon said.

"Bye, guys," Hiro said as he, Baymax and Fred exited the base and walked through the hangar doors. 

"Good luck in school!" Wasabi exclaimed.

Soon after, the trio were out of sight.

"I hope it goes well for them." Gogo muttered.

"I'm sure they will, but for now, let's just focus on our lives." Honey Lemon said, "Tomorrow's going to be a busy day for me.."

"Same for me. Cause I have plans to apply as a professor in SFIT." Wasabi said, "Looks like I might be teaching Hiro and whatever friend he makes."

"Speaking of which, I guess it's time to leave..." Gogo said.

Soon after, the remaining members walked to the hangars together.

Unknown Location….

Out of nowhere, a figure looks at the screen in front of him. The screen shows the cameras of the Big Hero 6 headquarters.

"Big Hero 6..... Nice to see you again" The figure mumbled as he scrolled at the screen, "Let's see if anything's changed since our last encounter..”

Lucky Cat Cafe….

It was morning, and the sun shone so bright that Hiro was able to wake up with the help of Baymax.

"Good morning, Hiro." Baymax greeted Hiro.

Hiro got out of the bed and said to the robot,

"Morning, Baymax! I'm glad that the new alarm clock update I installed on you worked properly." 

As he scrolled on his phone, he thought of something.

"I wonder if Fred's awake.." He muttered.

Fredrickson Manor….

Speaking of Fred, who had his phone turned off the whole time, he was still fast asleep. Mini-Max was already suited up, ready to wake his friend up.

"Wake up my friend!" Mini-Max greeted Fred while flying. "It is 6:30, ante, meridiem." [1]

"Ugh.. Morning already?" Fred muttered, yawning as he woke up. "I knew I should've set the alarm so that I could be awake by now."

As Fred got off the bed, Heathcliff entered the room with his breakfast.

"Good morning, Mr. Fredrickson." He said, leaving the food on the table. "Go get ready, cause you have a very big day ahead."

Fred then sat on the couch and started eating the food given to him, while Mini-Max landed on his lap.

“I hope Hiro will have a great time on his first day.” He said, thinking of his friend.

Lucky Cat Cafe….

Some time later, Hiro, who was already in his civilian clothes and was carrying his backpack with Baymax on his side, came down the stairs, where he landed at the first floor, where the cafe is located, with a lot of customers,

"Morning Aunt Cass!" Hiro then greeted his aunt.

"Good morning, sweetie!" Aunt Cass greeted as she brought the food to a table. "Here's your order."

"Thank you, Miss." A girl said to Aunt Cass upon receiving her order.

"You're welcome! Plus, you can call me Aunt Cass." Aunt Cass chuckled, "Now, enjoy your food and if you need me, just ring the bell."

"Righty ho!"

As Aunt Cass went to her next customer, the girl's gaze turned to Hiro. Hiro immediately recognized her and said,

“Karmi?! You go here now?”

"Hiro- Good morning!" Karmi greeted him, "Also, yes! This cafe is much better than the one near SFIT!"

"Karmi! I did not expect that you would be eating here." Hiro said as he sat down beside her.

"Are you okay?"  Aunt Cass asked the genius. 

"I'm fine, just getting nervous as I have to mentor some new kid in school." Hiro said.

"Woah! Looks like you must be related to her somehow." Karmi said.

"Yup, she's actually my aunt." Hiro replied to his friend, "Hence, living upstairs."

"Ooh!" Karmi exclaimed, "So that's why I didn't see you enter the cafe using the entrance.."

The Streets….

Moments later, Karmi and Hiro were both riding on the latter's scooter. With Baymax being docked on the back.

"So, how's life back in San Fransokyo?" Hiro asked, "Not to mention you returning to SFIT."

 "Well, it has been well, and guess what? Instead of staying in Ichiba Street, I would be living in a dormitory in SFIT!" Karmi replied. 

"That's cool!"

During the ride, the two talked about what they’re up to.

"And by the way, how's the others?" She asked.

"They graduated. And, it felt sad for me.. Especially Tadashi." Hiro answered her question.

"Oh. And I actually watched your speech!" Karmi said, "I teared up, knowing your-."

"Yeah. I tried my best not to cry while I accepted his diploma."

"I'm sorry." Karmi said. "But since I'm returning to SFIT. Don't worry, you're not alone."

Hiro looked at his side mirror and said,

"Thanks, Karmi."

"Also speaking of SFIT... Professor Granville told me that I would be having a roommate!" Karmi said, "Which means I'm not going to be alone in my room!"

"Who is it?" Hiro asked, "And I wonder if she's nice."

"Well, you will see."  Karmi said. 

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

Time passed by, and the three, joined by Fred, arrived at the campus, which was filled with old and new students getting their new ID pictures taken for their I.D card. Karmi went first, then followed by Fred. When it was finally Hiro's turn.. 

"Well, I look more than different.." Hiro muttered. He was comparing his new ID picture with his old ID picture.

Turns out, unlike his old I.D, which has him winking as the camera flashed, his posture was neutral. 

"Aunt Cass was right. I guess things change around me." Hiro thought to himself

"Yup. It has changed since the last time I went here." Karmi said.

All of a sudden, a voice was calling Karmi, saying,

"Hey, Karmi!"

"Regina!" Karmi said excitedly and ran up to her.

Regina is sporting blonde hair, which was tied into two pigtails. She was also wearing a black t-shirt with a dark pink stripe in the middle.

"Who's Regina?" Hiro asked. "And why does she look familiar to me?"

"You may have known her thanks to one of your friends, but I, Justine Karmi Sanchez, introduce to you, Regina Watanabe, my roommate!" Karmi said to her friend.

"Nice to see you!"  Regina said to Hiro, happily, "I can't wait to get to know you, now that I'm no longer frozen."

However, she noticed something about him.

“Speaking of that, you must be a friend of someone I know before..” She muttered.

"Nice to meet you too! My name's Hiro Hamada. And this is Baymax." Hiro greeted the blonde.

"And I'm Frederick Fredrickson the Fourth!" Fred greeted as he was about to give Regina a handshake.

"And I almost forgot to say this but.." Regina muttered. "Don't ever talk about the "Frozen" incident that happened in my dorm room!"

Hiro looked at her in shock and uttered, 

"Oh."

Finally, Regina composed herself and said, 

"That's all! Now wheres-"

"Regina! My sister!" All of a sudden, another voice said, prompting Regina to look at her, "Why are you always the first?!" The voice complained. 

The voice came from another girl, who was sporting a white t-shirt with a red jacket. She is also a blonde-haired girl and looks much younger, but older than Rishi, who was walking beside her and gasped in shock,

"And you're friends with Hamada?"

Regina’s eyes turned towards them. She looked very ecstatic and excited.

"There she is!" Regina exclaimed,  "This is my sister, Aiko Watanabe!" Regina explained. "And sis, is he your roommate?"

Aiko then walked up to her sister’s group.

"Yup. He just enrolled here. Just like me!" Aiko replied.

All of a sudden, her gaze turned to Hiro. In response, Hiro looked at her and said,

"Uh, hello there-"

That greeting caused Aiko to blush in excitement.

"Are you Hiro Hamada?! THE YOUNGEST STUDENT HERE BEFORE ME AND RISHI JOINED?!" She exclaimed, excitedly, that everyone else in the campus stared at her, "Although I'm about to turn fourteen, also known as your age when you joined SFIT soon but dude! Nice to finally meet you!!"

"Actually, I'm fifteen. And your roommate, Rishi Patel, is 11, which means he is the youngest student here in SFIT." Hiro replied, "Also, he is also the one I would be mentoring later on." He added, "But it's nice to meet you, Aiko!"

“I’m so sorry guys..” Regina muttered, “My sister could act like that most of the time.”

Finally, Aiko walked up to Fred and looked at him.

"And you must be the school's mascot..." She muttered, "Nice to meet you too, Fred!"

"Nice to meet you." Fred replied.

"Also, I heard there is a cheerleading club here at SFIT." Aiko said, "And I'm super duper interested in joining the club."

"Well, auditions are expected to happen approximately 2-4 weeks from now." Fred told her, "But let's just wait for updates, okay."

Just then, Professor Granville approached the group. She was holding a clipboard and a couple of papers in her hands.

"Hello, Miss Granville-" Aiko greeted her. 

"It's Professor Granville." Professor Granville said.

"Remember Aiko, you're in college now." Rishi said. "That's why you have to address your teachers as professors instead of Mister and Miss."

"Mr. Hamada, Mr. Patel's classes are about to begin in 30 minutes," Professor Granville said as she gave the group their class schedules. "As for you Aiko, your first class is about to begin in less than 10 minutes."

As the group each received their respective schedules and read it, they glanced at each other.

"Well, this is reality. But, nice to meet you too, Freddie, can I call you that?" Aiko asked him.

"I have a friend who calls me that. But it's okay." Fred replied to her question.

Aiko then looked at her schedule and read it. She also looked at her watch, which displayed “7:04am” on the screen.

"6 minutes before my class starts." Aiko said. "And you can call me Screen-Fiend! Gotta swoop!" 

"Goodbye," Baymax said just as Aiko started running into the building.

As for Karmi and Regina, they read their respective schedules as well.

"Me and Regina's about to start soon!" Karmi said to Hiro, "We better go before it's too late. Good luck Hiro!" 

"Bye, guys! See you at lunch!" Hiro said, before his attention turned towards Rishi, "As for you, Rishi.. Are you excited?"

Rishi nervously looked around his surroundings, and nodded his head in agreement.

"Yes, Hamada. I'm ready to see what's on the other side." He said as he and his mentor started walking towards the building.

However, they were also unaware that a drone entered the campus and started following them.

Obake's Lair….

"First day back to school, huh?" Obake said, watching the camera from his chair. "I wonder how it will go. Especially when your friends have graduated from SFIT.."

Gogo and Honey Lemon's Apartment….

As Hiro's first day of classes started, Gogo, who was cleaning one of her motorbike's tires, received a call from Wasabi.

"Hello, Wasabi." She picked up the phone call from him and asked, "How was the job application?"

"I got accepted!" Wasabi said on the other line.

"Wait, what?" Honey Lemon then got up from her bed and was shocked, "Accepted?"

"Yes! And I'm on my way to SFIT for my very first day as a teacher." Wasabi replied.

"Cool! Also, if you need a ride there-" Gogo was about to tell him, but Wasabi interrupted.

"It's okay, Gogo. Besides, it's good to have my car back!" Wasabi said. He was driving down the road in his car, "That means I can take myself wherever I want." [2]

“Ooh!” Honey Lemon cheered from the background.

"Well, I wish you luck on your job." Gogo said just as the call was about to end, “Bye Wasabi- Or should I say, Professor Wasabi..”

After ending the call, Gogo looked at her roommate, who was gleefully dancing around the room.

"I'm so excited for him!" Honey said while she walked to her closet, "Speaking of “excited”, we better work on finding a job."

"Yeah. Only Hiro and Wasabi have theirs.” Gogo added.

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

"Now, make sure to participate during this lesson and I recommend you to take notes so you won't forget," Hiro told Rishi on the way to the lecture hall.

Having entered the building, Hiro and Rishi started making their way towards the lecture hall, where Rishi’s classes would be taking place. Everyone else was doing the same thing while some, who have vacant schedules, were standing by. Both of them finally entered the lecture hall after lots of chatting.

"But, what if I get confused..?" Rishi asked in concern, "I mean, from what Aiko told me, the lessons in here would be much harder than before."

"It's normal for things to get harder." Hiro told him, "Look. Before I joined SFIT, I was actually involved with something darker. But with the help of my brother and his friends, I learned more about SFIT itself. And without them, I wouldn't be here today."

"Oh. And who's your brother anyway?" Rishi gasped in shock and asked the genius.

"Tadashi-" Hiro was about to reply when the professor came in. "We'll talk later.."

The professor, who looked similar to Aunt Cass but a little more boyish, entered the lecture hall and started writing equations on the whiteboard.

"Hello, students! Welcome to the first day of umm. What is it again? OH! Math class! Welcome to Math class everybody!" The professor exclaimed. Everyone stood up in order to greet him.

On Wasabi's end, he gets out of his car after parking it in the institute's parking lot.

"Don't worry, Wasabi. You can do it." He said to himself while walking to the building, “It’s just like when you substituted a class.”

Moments later, he was talking with Professor Granville in her office.

"Good morning, Mr Wasabi. Here is your schedule." Professor Granville greeted just as Wasabi sat down, "Good luck!" She finally told him.

Wasabi took his schedule from Professor Granville, discovering a familiar name. Seeing this, Wasabi looked at the window, ready for what is to come. Everything is returning back to reality.

After classes ended, Hiro and Rishi were walking down the hallway.

"Coding’s done, now, what's next in my schedule." Rishi asked Hiro, who was staring at something, "Uh, Hamada? I'm talking to you"

"Wasabi? What are you doing here?" Turns out, Hiro actually stopped in his tracks because he noticed one of his friends pass by.

"Oh, Hi Hiro! Just got here for my first day as a teacher." Wasabi said, to which he looked at Rishi, "And speaking of that, who is this little one?"

"I do not trust the people who call me a little one." Rishi muttered, as he looked at both hiro and Wasabi, "I'm an eleven-year old kid, not a five-year old one."

"Rishi, this is Wasabi." Hiro said as he introduced his friend and his protege to each other. "Wasabi, Rishi."

"Oh wow, a new friend you made here." Wasabi greeted the protege, before shaking hands with him.

"Actually, I'm mentoring him." Hiro clarified.

At the same time, Aiko went up to them. She was using blue roller skates. When the trio came to her view, she slowed to a stop before hitting them.

"Heads up! I'm so sorry Hiro!” She said to him, “I was trying to get used to this whole new world." 

"It's okay." Hiro then replied.

As for Wasabi, he looked Aiko in the eye.

"I'm sorry to say this Ma'am. Skating inside the hallways is against the rules." Wasabi said. "You can do that during your free time inside the lab, canteen, and outside. Not here in a place that gets too crowded." 

"Oof." Aiko muttered in dismay.

"I told you, roomie! That means you shouldn't be bringing that to school."  Rishi said. "I mean, I do sometimes bring my hoverboard. I would never ride it here!"

As Rishi said that, Aiko walked towards her locker and changed back to her shoes.

"So that's your new friends." Wasabi then talked to Hiro, "I mean, they look so kind to you, but can you please watch out for them?"

"Yup. And they're not the only ones I made here." Hiro answered.

"Hiro's right. Some of us, even my sister, are in their classes right now." Aiko added, "And what's your name, Mr-"

"Wasabi, meet Aiko!" Hiro said, "And Aiko, meet Wasabi. One of my old friends from last year. He is now our physics teacher."

"Oh hello, Mr. Wasabi!" Aiko said, "Nice to meet ya!"

"Hello, Aiko. Also, you can call me Wasabi! You can only call me "Mr. Wasabi" during our classes, kid." Wasabi replied to her, "Now, if you excuse me, I will be off to my class. Take care, Hiro! Oh, and friends!"

"Bye, Mr. Wasabi! Hiro said as he and Rishi proceeded to their next class while Aiko walked off.

Obake's Lair….

"Heh heh heh... Big Hero 6, getting separated for the first time in days!" Obake said, looking at the data his secret drones gave. "This fall.. MY LEGACY LIVES ON!!!" 

As he laughed, an idea went to his head.

"But before that, I will need help," Obake said as his eyes turned to a photo of Trina, "Don't worry, sweetheart.. I'm coming for you."

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

Time passed in a blur, and it was nighttime. All classes have already come to an end, and Karmi, who was walking near Hiro's lab, sees something unusual.

"Wait a minute. IS THAT RED PANDA'S ROCKET FIST?!" Karmi exclaims, and secretly, snuck inside. 

As she took a look at the fist, her eyes turned to Rishi, and the Watanabe sisters, who saw her from outside.

"What is that?" Rishi asked, "And why does this look familiar to me??" He said, pointing to Hiro's mini-magnets.

Meanwhile, as Wasabi was walking to his car, he bumps into Fred and Mini-Max.

"Oh Fred!" Wasabi exclaimed in shock, "What are you doing here?"

"Oh, it's nothing. Well, except for me going to the school's library to return my books before it closes." Fred said, before heading off, only to bump into Hiro, who was wearing his scooter's helmet.

"Hey, Hiro!" Wasabi said. 

"Dope helmet by the way.." Fred responds to Hiro, "Let me see... You brought your scooter here again, didn't you..."

"Yes Fred. Just test-drove it around SFIT." Hiro responds, before his eyes turn to the windows of his lab. 

Turns out, his new friends were staring at his lab.

"Wait, did you see that?" He asked his other friends.

As the three looked at the lab, they were dismayed by what they saw...

"Okay, everyone! This is an emergency meeting!" Karmi exclaimed to Hiro's friends.

"What kind of meeting?" Regina asked, "And isn't this Hiro's lab?" 

"You have your lab, right?" Rishi added, "I remember Hamada telling me about not entering his lab without permission."

"Well, it's a secret meeting." Karmi responds as the others look at her in confusion, "A TOP secret type of meeting!" 

As the others listen, Hiro's purple glove caught Rishi's attention, while Wasabi's blades got Aiko's attention.

"Wait, that glove... WAS HIRO THE BIG HERO 6 GUY?!" Rishi exclaims. 

"Sort of... BECAUSE THIS LOOKS LIKE THOSE BLUE CHOP CHOP THINGS!" Aiko exclaims as she looks at Wasabi's blades, accidentally activating them before turning them off, "Ah! So dangerous!"

As the friends looked around the lab, Regina, who was inspecting Fred's armor, realized something.

"Wait a minute, if these look like their hero wear, wait do you know what I mean?" Regina said, shocking herself and the others.

"Hiro must be from Big Hero 6!" All exclaimed, much to Hiro, Fred, and Wasabi's shock.

San Fransokyo Prison….

"I'm here to visit Trina." A person, who seems to be donning a "SFIRT" sweater, said, talking to the guard.

"What is your name?" The guard asked.

"Mr. Bobby Acken..." "Bobby" said, "Is that it?"

"Yes."

Unbeknownst to the guard, "Bobby's" purpose was to actually bail Trina out. As "Bobby" makes his way to Trina's cell, he runs to a man with white hair.

"Oh!" The man said.

"I'm so sorry! Who are you?" "Bobby" said as he helped the man up.

"My name's Robert." Robert, the man, answered, "Robert Callaghan." He added, "What are you doing here anyway?"

"Oh.. I'm visiting my friend, Trina." "Bobby" said, "Her prison is on the top floor. So I better go now."

"Oh. Okay." Callaghan said as he watched "Bobby" enter the elevator, "I'm just here to pay for what I have done."

Minutes later, as "Bobby" finally gets out of the elevator, he becomes surprised after seeing Trina's current condition. Her head was on top of her bed, while the rest of her body had been dismantled.

"Hello, Trina." "Bobby" said as he opened the doors of her cell, taking off his disguise, much to Trina's shock. 

"D-daddy?!" Trina said as Obake, who was disguised as "Bobby", held her head, "I'm so glad to see you! And alive. I thought you were dead!"

"I'm so glad to see you too, but we have to hurry. We are getting out of here..." Obake responds as he holds Trina's head.

Big Hero 6 Base….

"Your driving skills are great, Hiro." Wasabi said as he, Hiro and Baymax walked out of the latter's hangar, "But maybe try to slow down a little bit next time."

"Thanks for telling me." Hiro said, "About your car..."

"Don't worry. I got this covered." Wasabi said, "I'm so glad Roddy thought of adding an "Autopilot" feature for our vehicles, like your scooter for example."

As the three were walking, they ran into Fred.

"Hey guys! Lots of traffic out there, but Heathcliff got me here so fast!" Fred exclaimed, "How were you three so fast these days?"

"It's a long story." Wasabi said as he and the three entered the base's meeting room. 

"EMERGENCY MEETING! EMERGENCY MEETING!" Fred exclaimed. 

"What's the problem?" Gogo responded. 

"Well, I finished test-driving my scooter." Hiro said. 

“Oh, nice!" Honey Lemon responded as she kept her phone in her bag. 

"But my new friends...." Hiro muttered in disappointment. He knew that what he would tell the gang next would make them mad.

"What happened?" Gogo said.

"Long story short, but they just found out superhero identities." Fred said.

"If I didn't leave some parts of our suit there, then this would've not happened.." Hiro muttered as he sat on his chair in dismay. "It's all my fault... I'm sorry."

"It's okay, Hiro." Honey told him, "At least you learned about your mistake."

"And you have time to fix it." Wasabi said, "Don't worry buddy. Life is not a race."

"Hey. At least Honey and Gogo's were not found." Fred said, "Yet."

"Bus us four.." Hiro muttered, “We’re definitely in trouble..”

SFIT Dormitories….

Speaking of Hiro’s new friends, they all entered their respective dormitories. Karmi and Regina are roommates while Rishi and Aiko are roommates.

"I can't believe it! I thought Hiro and Captain Cutie were two separate people!" Karmi exclaimed just as she and Regina entered their dorm, "But in reality, they are just one person!"

"Should we tell him?" Regina asked.

"Nuh-uh!." Karmi said as she placed her backpack on the closet, "Maybe we should also keep it a secret. And if he finds out..."

"Then that's the time we'll tell him." Regina said, "I will tell my sister in the morning. She and Rishi may be sleeping by now."

Speaking of her sister, she and Rishi just entered their room and walked towards the couch.

"The first time I saw "Hero" Hiro in battle, was the first time I got interested in SFIT!" Rishi said as he sat on the couch, "IT GOT MORE INTERESTING!"

"Oh my gosh! What if he saw us looking at his lab?" Aiko said as she hung her satchel bag on the hook, "I mean, we may be in trouble.. Maybe we should.."

"Don't tell him!" The two said in unison, before Rishi thought of something.

"Or maybe we should help him..." Rishi asked.

"Rishi! No! It would be too risky if we helped." Aiko said, "Plus, we aren't even that ready to become heroes."

Rishi looked at his roommate in shock.

“I’m not mad at you, Rish.” Aiko then said to him, “I’m just telling you that we shouldn’t be helping Big Hero 6.”

"I guess you're right, Aiko." Rishi said as he turned off his tablet, "Let's just keep it a secret. Maybe your sister and Karmi also thought of keeping it to themselves.." He added, before going to his bed.

"I definitely agree.." Aiko replied, before turning off the lights.

Obake's lair….

"I'm glad you thought of getting me out of jail, dad." Trina said as she and Obake arrived at the latter's lair.

"Yup. I actually saw the news of you being arrested.." Obake said.

"Oh. So that's why you decided to do this for me.." Trina replied to her father.

"Actually, I have other plans for you." Obake said as half of his face turned purple. "My unfinished business.."

The Streets….

The next day, Hiro, Fred, Baymax, Mini Max, and Wasabi are in the latter's car, driving to SFIT. 

"I tried my best to hide our superhero identity from them!" Hiro, seated at the front, exclaimed in frustration, "And now... They already know.. I'm sorry.."

"It's okay, Hiro." Wasabi said, “I mean, when I first make a mistake, I fix it. Eventually."

"I get it, Wasabi." Hiro replied, "But what if they tell everyone else. Not to mention Rishi and Aiko being phone addicts."

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

Moments later, as Hiro, Baymax, and Fred were walking down the hallway, they were met with Rishi and Aiko, who was sporting a bun and was wearing an orange jacket, waiting for them.

"Hey Screen Fiend!" Fred exclaimed, “Also known as Aiko because it is your nickname!”

"Freddie! I cannot believe this but me and Rishi would be together in our first class!" Aiko responded as she and Rishi stopped on their tracks. 

"Long story short but me and Aiko had been friends for like, days after moving into our dormitory, and days before school started," Rishi added, "Not to mention us being roommates!" 

"Oh well, that's cool. It's also the same for me except I will be mentoring him." Hiro replied, before showing his friends his phone.,"But so far so good, we had been friends for weeks now, even staying in touch." 

"Hey, Hamada! Class in 5 minutes! Also known as the first time me and Aiko are together in the same class." Rishi suddenly reminded Hiro.

As the group heads off for their classes, Obake and Trina were spying on them using a surveillance camera from the school itself.

Obake's Lair….

"So, what is the plan, dad?" Trina asked, "Also to catch up, Hiro now has powers."

"Oh.. So he is not that weak..” Obake muttered.

"Yup... He even tied me up!" Trina said. "Using his, um I dunno. Some sort of rope that comes from his gloves.." She added, "So. Do we have a plan.."

As she said that, Obake's eyes turned to the identities of Big Hero 6.

"From what I saw. Hiro is the only one still at SFIT." He said, "Wasabi is now a teacher, and Fred is not a student but always stops by."

"And.."

"Hiro seems to have a friend group.. A friend group that is aware of his identities." He added, "I wonder who they are. Since I didn't get to know them. But in the future, I will."

"Whatever happens, dad. I will stay with you." Trina said, "You are not alone."

"Thanks. Sweetie." Obake said, "And about the plan you've been waiting for.. We will be dragging them right here.."

"B-but how?"

"Well...." Obake responded. "I have something in mind.."

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

"Okay class, today, we will learn about programming and inventing a small object." The professor, who was sporting orange hair, said to her class just as Hiro, Rishi and Aiko entered the room.

 "Ooh cannot wait!" Aiko said, silently. 

"Wha-what do you mean?" Hiro whispered. 

"Oh! She means she is doing a gimmick or making a new gadget." Rishi whispers until the professor begins their class, which makes him excited.

“If I could make a portal one, then I might need to learn about portal technology," Aiko whispered, to which Hiro and Rishi looked at her, "It's not like the ones that nearly destroyed the city." She added, "I don't even know the whole purpose of the "Silent Sparrow" project."

"Ms. Watanabe! What are you doing?" The professor warned her.

"Oh! I-i'm listening. Just to clarify." Aiko said. 

Moments later, all classes were on lunch break.

"You were so excited about this topic weren't you?" Hiro said as he, Fred, Aiko, and Rishi walked to the Periodic Cafe to meet up with the others.

"I was! I'm so gonna use those for....." Aiko said as Hiro, Rishi, and Fred, were looking at her, weirdly. 

"S-Self-defense tactics!" Rishi exclaimed, frantically. He was trying not to let Hiro and Fred know that he and Aiko, together with their other friends, found out about their secret identities.

"Ooooookay! Okie dok-" Fred said, hitting an invisible object flying, "What is that?"

"Boom!" Rishi said as he hacked one of the features of the invisible object.

It caused the object’s invisibility function to power off. It was a buddy guard.

"Critical hit.." Rishi said as he sent a shut down code to the buddy guard, causing it to power just as Regina and Karmi walked towards them.

“Hey guys!” Karmi greeted, happily.

"What, was that?" Regina muttered.

"I dunno sis.. Why is this thing following us.." Aiko said, as Hiro went near the buddy guard to inspect it.

"This seems familiar.." Hiro muttered. 

As lunch ended, he, joined by Fred, Baymax and Wasabi, entered his lab.

"I'm glad that I was able to borrow Rishi's tablet for this." He muttered. He then typed all the coordinates of the robot into the computer.

"So that's where those bots came from.." Wasabi said.

"Yup.." Hiro said, "That's where I'm headed right now. I'm glad I don't have afternoon classes today."

"Hiro. If you need us. You can just-" Fred said, only to find out that Hiro exited the lab, "And he left.."

As Hiro ran in the school's hallway, he suddenly bumps into Rishi and Aiko, who were talking.

"Aah! I'm sorry." He apologized as he stood up, with Aiko's help.

"It's okay." Aiko said. "Me and Rishi were just talking about... A topic!" She lied

"We understand that you have somewhere to go, Hamada." Rishi said. "So if you're going there, you better go."

As Rishi said that, tears started to form on Hiro's eyes. Knowing this, Hiro had no choice but to tell them about what happened the previous night.

"You- You already know it!" Hiro exclaimed, much to his friends' shock, "I saw you guys in my lab yesterday!"

"Hiro- I can explain!" Rishi said, but it was too late. And Hiro has left the campus, "Hiro!"

As for Wasabi and Fred, they waited outside for Hiro, who was running upon finding out about his friends' knowledge about his identities.

"Hiro!" Fred called out, prompting Hiro to look at him.

"I'm sorry guys!" Hiro exclaimed, "I have to do this on my own, just to keep our secrets safe."

As Hiro ran off, Wasabi took his phone out to call Skymax, before he and Fred ran to a secluded area.

"I'm glad I don't have any afternoon sessions."  He muttered, "Fred, call the others!"

As for Hiro's friends, they looked at the window in dismay.

"We should talk to him later.." Regina said as she and Karmi comforted the prodigy, "For now, maybe we should help him.."

"But it's too dangereous!" Rishi said.

As he said that, Aiko then looked at him and held his hand, telling him,

"I know. But we have to risk everything!"

Karmi then looked at the two and added,

"Someone has to help..Whether he likes it or not."

The Streets….

On Fred and Wasabi's end, they, Joined by Gogo and Honey Lemon, soared to the skies on Baymax.

"According to the coordinates, Hiro should be headed there." Baymax said as he landed on top of the warehouse.

Speaking of the genius leader, he stopped his scooter in an alley and started walking towards the warehouse.

"This should be it." He muttered, as he stood in front of the warehouse's entrance. Unbeknownst to him, he is followed by the other heroes. Taking a breath, he enters the warehouse.

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

"Our plan is to sneak into the warehouse." Karmi said as classes came to a close. The four were in a secluded area in the school.

"How?" Aiko said.

"I'm glad Hiro didn't bring my tablet with him." Rishi said as he turned the tablet on, "Here is where those bots came from."

"A warehouse... I heard villains typically use those as their base of operations.." Aiko shared, "Let's go!" 

The Warehouse….

As the others snuck into the warehouse, they looked around.

"It looks silent in here.." Honey Lemon said.

"But we need to be sure. Hiro might be in-" Fred said, before bumping into Hiro, "Trouble.."

"Guys! What are you all doing here?" Hiro asked his team.

"I'm glad you're okay-" Gogo said, only to be interrupted by footsteps approaching. As Buddy guards surrounded the heroes, a figure approaches the heroes from behind.

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

On Hiro's friends' end, they all exited the campus one by one.

"So, how are we going to get there?" Rishi asked as he and the others stood near the entrance.

"Not to mention how far the warehouse is." Karmi said.

"I mean, Hiro might've arrived there first. And so are the others!"

"He has a scooter, Rish." Karmi said.

"You mean that red thing?" Aiko asked, to which Karmi nodded her head. "So that's what that one meant."

"You hated riding bikes, right?"

"Yes!" Aiko said. "But since RideShare only sends cars to us, then it's fine with me." She added as she and the others entered the car.

“Who knows how to drive?” Regina asked, “I promised myself not to hit the streets myself.”

“I do.” Rishi spoke, much to the others’ shock, “My uncle taught me how to do that. Trust me.”

“But do you even reach the pedals..?” Aiko muttered.

“I may be a little short, but at least I hack into technology.” Rishi replied to his roommate, before taking out his tablet.

Obake's Lair….

"Long time no see, Big Hero 6.." The figure reveals himself as Obake, "Let me guess.. You thought that I'm dead.."

"I can't believe it.." Gogo muttered.

"I KNEW IT!" Hiro exclaimed, "I was right this whole time! I knew you were alive- I KNEW YOU WERE ALIVE!"

"But, how..?" Honey Lemon asked, "How were you still alive..?"

"Hmm. It was a very long story.." Obake said.

"A very long story indeed." Trina said as she revealed herself, "Now, let us introduce to you, our Buddy Guards! 2.0."

"Yes yes yes.. They were made because of my Trina." He said as he pulled her into an embrace.

"Whatever you're doing to us, Obake! Let us go!" Wasabi shouted.

"Nuh-uh!" Obake said, "Not until I do my thing. Your honor, sweetie."

As Obake said that, Trina holds at what seems to be a lever.

"This ends now..." Trina said as she pulled the lever. But that lever didn't even do anything.

"Hold on... That is supposed to do something.." Obake muttered, "But why isn't it doing anything??"

"I don't know.. Maybe magic did its thing?" Fred muttered.

"More like a shutdown code from a friend's tablet..." Rishi said as his group entered the warehouse, "Don't worry, Hiro and Big Hero 6! Your friends are here to save you!" He exclaimed as Regina threw a pole at one of the buddy guards.

"Guys! I have three more poles with me. Get one." Regina said as the other three friends got one pipe. "Charge!"

As Hiro's friends went down from the balcony, the heroes were left amused.

"I can't-" Wasabi said. 

"Don't worry, Hiro." Karmi told him, "It's a very long story but we got you." She added, "But you need to change your gear. Luckily Rishi has your phone with you."

As she said that, Rishi threw Hiro's phone for him to catch, which he did. With a smile from his friends, he calls his Skymax and runs outside the warehouse with Karmi in tow. 

Meanwhile, as his friends charged towards the buddy guards, the other heroes were thinking of something.

"Should we help them?" Wasabi asked.

"Yes." Baymax asked.

"I agree with him!" Fred exclaimed as he turned on his armor's headlights.

"Same!" Honey said as she shields Aiko from one of the buddy guards using her chemballs.

"Thanks!" Aiko exclaimed.

“Heroes risk their lives to help each other, right?” Regina added, “So that’s what we’re gonna do.”

"You're welcome." Baymax replied.

"Baymax! Rocket fist!" Gogo commands.

Baymax shot his rocket fist to one of the buddy guards while Gogo protects Rishi from an incoming one.

"Oh my gosh! Thanks!" The prodigy exclaimed.

"You're welcome-" Gogo replied until they were met with the sight of a buddy guard. 

Luckily, Hiro, who is now in his super armor, shuts it off using his magnet disc.

"And he's back!" Fred exclaimed in excitement.

"Told you it will take some time for him to get used to you guys." Wasabi said as he slashed one of the buddy guards.

"Yeah." Regina said as she threw her pole onto an incoming buddy guard, "And how we learned about his identity is a much longer story indeed.."

"Thank you so much, Hamada!" Rishi exclaimed.

"You're welcome, Rishi." Hiro replied.

"Look. We're very sorry about learning about your secrets.” Rishi then said to Hiro, “We know how it matters to you."

"It's okay, Rishi. But you don't need to apologise." Hiro replied to him, "I should be the one to apologize about what happened earlier."

"Apology accepted, Hiro!" Karmi said, "But with that settled, let's finish these buddy guards off!"

As she said that, all the heroes (and Hiro's friends, of course) charged towards all the bots.

"Do you need a ride?" Baymax asked as Rishi ran up to him.

"Of course, Red Panda!" Rishi said as he hopped on.

"You can call him Baymax, Rishi. " Hiro said, "But don't tell anyone."

"Whatever secret you guys have, it's safe with us!" Regina said as she used Honey Lemon's chemballs to trap some of the buddy guards.

"Hiro!" Karmi exclaimed. 

In response, Hiro shoots two magnet discs, one to the ceiling, and one to the pole Karmi was holding. As she swung, Karmi kicked some of the buddy guards until they got shut down.

On Rishi's end, as he shuts down multiple buddy guards using his tablet, he sees Aiko about to get hit.

"Baymax!" Rishi commanded as Baymax flew on top of Aiko. Rishi gets off and slashes the buddy guard using his pole.

"Thanks Rishi!" Aiko said.

"No problem!" Rishi said as he and Aiko blushed as they shared expressions. Their moment was interrupted when Gogo and Honey Lemon saved them from an incoming bot.

"Hey kid!" Gogo went up to Rishi, "You shut these bots down, am I right?"

"Yes, m'lady!" Rishi said, "As long as my tablet is with me, I can shut anything down just like...." He explained until his eyes landed onto a computer, "You're a genius Speed Queen!"

"What? How?"

Her question was answered when Rishi sent a shut down code to all of the buddy guards, including the computer that was in charge of making them. In response, Karmi throws her metal pipe on the computer. The team regrouped at the computer afterwards.

"I can't believe you guys thought of helping us.." Wasabi muttered as he looked at the four friends.

"Yup." Regina said, "We've been thinking of helping you guys since yesterday, when we kind of invaded your privacy."

"But since we know all your secrets and that privacy really matters to you," Karmi announced, "Your secrets are safe with us."

"Now, let's get back to the base. I will explain what happened when we get there." He said as he, along with his friends and the other heroes, hopped on Baymax, taking off.

Big Hero 6 Base….

"So those are your new friends?" Gogo said as the team gathered at the conference room. 

"Yes," Baymax said.

 "Our new schoolmates. Fresh from SFIT." Hiro added, "I know you would get mad at me for not stopping them -"

"We are not mad." Honey replied to the genius, "As for you guys, I liked how you four literally saved us from trouble." Honey Lemon commended. 

"No need to say thank you.." Aiko said.

As she said that, the heroes, except Honey, who must've decided against revealing her identity to Regina, all took off their helmets.

"Fred?" Rishi muttered. "You’re the “Flame Jumper” from Big Chibi 6 this whole time?"

"And Wasabi??" Aiko said, "Why did you not tell me.."

"Oh! I saw you all at the graduation stream!" Regina said, before something came up to her head, "Also, speaking of graduation, can you guys tell Honey that I'm sorry about the accident. And that I forgive her."

"It's very easy for me, since I live with her at my apartment." Gogo said. As for Honey, who still has her helmet on. She smiled.

"Don't worry, girlie.." She said, "I'm very close to her. I will make sure to let her know."

"As for all of you four, thank you so much for helping us with defeating those pesky bots!" Fred told the new friends.

"It's nice for us to help you when needed!" Karmi said, before looking at Hiro, who felt worried. 

"What's wrong, Genius Boy?" Karmi said. 

"Nothing, it's just that, with Obake still alive, we will have to prepare," Hiro said, "And I know how to prepare ourselves," Hiro adds, with his eyes looking at his tablet.

Chapter Text

The Streets....

"Gogo, Fred, have them surrounded."  Hiro told them using his intercom as he and Baymax were chasing Supersonic Sue from the sky, "Honey, I need your chem balls!"

"Here you go Hiro!" Honey Lemon exclaimed as she gave him two chemballs. "I will help Freddie and Gogo."

"Great idea!" Hiro exclaimed on his intercom. “Go for it!”

The heroes were on a mission, late at night, to chase Supersonic Sue and Supersonic Stu.

"Super jump!" Fred exclaimed while Gogo used her hover disk to block their way.

"Skater Tot! Come on!" Sue exclaimed at her.

"Make me." She said, before skating off. 

"Wasabi, you can drive, right? Hiro asked on his intercom.

"Driving on rush hour is deemed too hard for me!" Wasabi responded as he watched Honey Lemon pass by while stuck in traffic. "Not to mention me working at SFIT."

"I know, right? What a coincidence." Hiro replied, “And you’re one of our professors!

On Stu's end, he ends up tripping thanks to Fred landing in front of him.

"Come on! Do we even have time for that?" He asked just as he and his grandmother looked at each other.

Just in time, Hiro uses both his mini magnets and the chem balls simultaneously. The chem balls make the ground slippery for the two to fall while two mini-magnets formed into a rope thanks to its wires. 

"Wasabi, load them up!" Hiro ordered as he landed, and Wasabi eventually arrived at the scene. 

"Woohoo! 24 successful missions in a row!" Fred exclaimed.

"Right?!" Gogo said as she unleashed her softer side. "Because that breaks the record held during christmas.”

“Despite being wanted fugitives!” Wasabi exclaimed.

"Guys! Karmi told me about this whole new restaurant!" Honey Lemon exclaimed as she ran to the other heroes. "It looks awesome!"

"Welp, someone's got an idea on where our victory dinner should take place." Hiro said as he hopped on Baymax's back.

"What are you waiting for?" Fred said. "Let's go!"

"You guys go first, I have another meeting." Wasabi said, before driving off.

"Okay Wasabi." Hiro said. "Next mission, get to that restaurant and have that dinner."

As the rest of the heroes flew off, Rishi and Aiko were watching them from the sidewalk. Aiko’s outfit was a blue t-shirt, with dotted sleeves, and pants. The left side of her hair was tied.

"I wish we could help them..." Aiko muttered.  "We know where their base is, right?"

"We do! But we don't usually have weapons." Rishi said. 

 "Yup. Well, except the purse which I left in SFIT," Aiko responded. "...which is still a work in progress."

"I know, roomie.." Rishi said. "And my tablet is about to lose battery power!"

Just then, the two looked at their watches. Their eyes turned to the night sky.

"We should be heading to the dorms by now.." Rishi muttered. "It's almost curfew."

"I hope this works," Aiko said as she brought out something that looked like a blue tag. She then places it on the ground, turning it into a portal.

"Wow dude, you're the best roommate I've ever had in my life!" Rishi exclaimed as he jumped into the portal. "See you on the other side!"

SFIT Dormitories....

"It worked!" Aiko said as she followed Rishi through the portal, , which brought them to their dorm.

"Now we have a new method of transportation." Rishi said. "You're the driver, girl."

"Tch-aw Rish, you know that I'm a roommate that doesn't drive," Aiko said, sharing a hug with him. "But there is a way to get almost everyone into other places."

"I'd be hacking Professor Wasabi's car instead.."

"I think we can call him by his real name." Aiko said. "I mean, he's been friends with Hiro since last year, maybe.."

"Not to mention both of them being from Big Hero 6!" Rishi exclaimed, silently, before going to sleep.

------------------------------------------------------------

Lucky Cat Cafe....

"Cannot believe they escaped prison..." Wasabi muttered as he and the gang ate. "That was on the news minutes ago."

It was morning, and the heroes had their breakfast at the cafe. Wasabi was the only one aware of the Supersonics breaking out of prison, thanks to the news.

"Whatcha working on, Hiro?" Fred asked as he saw his friend sketching on his phone. "Also, I should get back to drawing.." [1]

"Well, I'm working on some new weapons that our new friends would use in case they want to help in battles." Hiro responds. "Also going to use inspiration from Aiko's power purse." 

"You mean the purse she has been working on?" Gogo asked, to which Hiro agreed. 

"OUR FRIENDS ARE GOING TO JOIN OUR TEAM?!" Fred exclaimed, only to be shushed by everyone else. [2]

"No!" The other heroes whispered. [2]

"It's going to be obvious that we're Big Hero 6." Hiro whispered. "So it's much better if we whisper for now." [2]

"Definitely agree, Hiro." Wasabi added. "Some might have the idea of exposing all of our identities." [2]

“Wasabi is correct.” Baymax said.

"And about them joining our team." Hiro said, finally having an answer to his friend's question. "They're not joining as official members, but I'm making these suits for them just in case."

"Oh..." Fred muttered. "So that means they might use it when doomsday comes.."

"Sort of." Hiro replied. "I can’t wait to see their reactions." 

SFIT Dormitories....

"Almost ready, sis!" Aiko, who has her hair down and is wearing a pink long-sleeve shirt with a cat logo, exclaimed. She was in a hurry before heading to school, "I need to look for my phone's charger.."

"Alright sis, take your time," Regina said from her and Karmi's dorm. "Me and Karmi are almost ready."

As for Hiro’s friends, they were getting themselves ready for school. Regina and Karmi were both able to get themselves ready. Aiko and Rishi are the opposite.

"Yeah. We're just double checking our projects." Karmi added as she got her backpack on.

"Meet you in school." Regina said, before ending the call.

"Bye!" Aiko said, before she continued looking for her charger. "Ugh, preparing for school is more like a rush hour!"

"Hey ScreenFiend!" Rishi calls out using her nickname. "Isn't this your charger..?"

"Yes! Thanks for finding it!" Aiko exclaimed as she took her charger from her roommate's hands. "I'm glad that you're my roommate. Cause if you're not.."

"Then it would be really difficult."

"I'm so glad that we got used to each other since moving day." Aiko said. "No time to waste. Our first class is in 20 minutes!" Aiko exclaimed, before she and Rishi exited their room.

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

"Look who's here!" Fred exclaimed as he, Hiro and Baymax saw Aiko and Rishi exit their dorm building.. 

"I wish I had the courage to hack the elevator's sound system." Rishi muttered as he and Aiko walked.

"You hated that music?" Aiko asked, to which Rishi nodded. 

Suddenly, her eyes turned to Hiro's group. 

"Oh- Hi Hiro! And Fred.” She greeted them.

"Hello, I am Baymax," Baymax said. "Your personal healthcare companion." He added. 

"We already know you!" Aiko said. "Now, let me introduce this to you, this!" She exclaimed as she pulled out her tags. "Me and Rishi used it to get back to our dorms."

"Yeah!" Rishi exclaimed. "And with that, she is now the designated driver who doesn't use any vehicle at all."

"Looks cool!" Fred said, before he and the others jumped through the portal made by Aiko's tags.

“But you still have plans on riding on my scooter,” Hiro added, “..right?

"I bet a couple of dollars that you would always be the first when it comes to racing to SFIT." Hiro explained as he and the others came through the portal, arriving at the Shared Labs. "I mean, your sister's always the first."

"Yeah." Aiko said. "And I could explain my habit of being late because of me and Rishi's chaotic way to get ready-"

However, her words trailed off when Regina and Karmi arrived, much to their shock.

“Looks like we need a better way of carrying our projects...” Karmi muttered.

"By the way, my first class starts in 13 minutes so we better hurry to our class," Rishi realized and circled his mentor. “..don’t wanna be late, Hamada,”

"Okay, but Professor Granville told me to take a short break. Although it is up to me." Hiro said. 

"Well, I'm sure I can handle some classes without you." Rishi said. "But Professor Granville's right. You definitely need to catch a break."

"I mean, we, your SFIT besties, all know that you have a double life..." Aiko added. "...as a student, and a superhero. 

“As I said before, your secrets are safe with us." Karmi said, before pulling the entire group for a hug.

“I better go now!” Regina said as she let go. “See you guys at Lunch!”

“Same with me.” Karmi then said. “I have genetics for today!”

“Looks like we have to split up for this hour.” Aiko muttered. “Me and Rishi have Robotics as our first period. Gotta go!”

"But if you two want to hang out with me, you can see me at my lab." Hiro said, before the two roommates left. "It's right over there. And I know what you'll say, Rish."

“What would I say?” Rishi asked. “Of course I won’t be hacking everything inside your lab. I already have my lab in the shared labs, although the original owner has yet to pack up their things.”

Obake's Lair....

"Do not worry, Stu, we will get out of this mess," Sue said before Obake came near. "Now that we're out of jail, thanks to them" She added, referring to Obake and Trina, who bailed them out.

"You must be the supersonics?" Obake said. 

"Yup." Stu replied. "And who are you?"

"We'll explain later." Trina said. "Follow us, we have something for you two."

As Obake and Trina lead the mother-and-son duo, the latter turns on the computer, revealing the faces of each member of Big Hero 6.

"This is Big Hero 6." Obake said. "This is how they look in real life."

"Hiro Hamada, Baymax, Frederick Fredrickson, Albert No-Ginger aka. Wasabi, Ethel Tomago aka. Gogo, and Adriana Rodrigo aka. Honey Lemon." Trina said, reading the names of each member loud.

"Looks like we discovered skater-tot's real persona," Sue said, pointing at Gogo. 

"And Mr. Red Buddy," Stu said, pointing at Baymax. "And I thought the purple guy was 16..."

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology....

"And that brings us to the end of our first quarter Physics lesson number 1!" Wasabi said as he concluded his lecture. "Just a heads up, I uploaded the file of our printables. Make sure to print it for tomorrow!" He reminded the students. "For now, see you at our next meeting where we will use them and finally have our first quiz." He said, dismissing his class.

As everyone left, Wasabi took out his phone and dialed Gogo.

"Gogo! Are you and Honey Lemon available for tonight?" He said.

Gogo and Honey Lemon's Flat....

"For me, yes. As for Honey.." Gogo said on the other line, before her eyes turned to her roommate, who was preparing stickers.

"Ooh! Preparations for my very own sticker party are all done and dusted!" Honey Lemon exclaimed."Gogo? Are you coming?"

"Not interested.." Gogo replied.

"Okay I guess.." Honey muttered, “I guess this sticker party is for me and my bunny shuttle. Which means I will have it in my hangar.”

"What is she doing?" Wasabi asked.

"She's having another sticker party." Gogo replied, "As I said, I'm very available for a hangout."

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology....

"Okay! All settled, see you in the evening." Wasabi said, ending the call at the same time, "I wonder what Hiro and his friends are up to.."

Shimamoto Line….

Meanwhile, the Shimamoto Line, a recently-added train line which is a part of the train system called SF Lines, was blooming with a lot of passengers. Amongst them were Regina and Karmi, who were holding their respective tickets.

"I'm glad Mayor Saito thought of constructing a train station here at SFIT." Regina said as she and Karmi waited for the train. "I'm tired of having to walk a few miles just to get to the art museum!"

"You're always going there?” Karmi asked.

“Yeah. I even went there before my previous roomie accidentally froze our dorm,” Regina answered Karmi’s question, “..and me..”

The train finally arrives at the station. It has 4 cabins, with a red line painted on the outside of the train.

“The next train has arrived. Mind the gap while boarding the train. Me or SF Lines are not liable for whatever happens to you.” The announcement said.

“I wonder who thought of that announcement.” Karmi chuckled as she and Regina boarded the train.

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology....

As for Hiro, he was in his lab with Aiko, seated on the sofa.

"Hey Hamada!" Rishi chimed as he entered his mentor’s lab. "Whatcha looking at?"

"Oh! It's a brochure." Hiro said, looking at what looks like a brochure about San Fransokyo.. "After tomorrow's internship, I will be headed there," He added, pointing to a temple on the brochure. “.. with some of my colleagues. One of them would be driving, which means I don’t have to drive there.”

Aiko then stood up from her seat and approached Hiro.

"Thank you very much for that most detailed tour of your lab, Hiro." Aiko said as she kneeled in front of Hiro, with Rishi watching. “I promise to use it as an inspiration for my lab’s design.”

Hiro stood from his chair and went to his computer.

"No problem at all." Hiro said, taking another seat,  "Also, this is where I rest all the time."

"Ooh.." Rishi said. "Not to mention working on your superhero gear as well."

"Yup. And with Obake returning, I think it's a good time for me and the others to have a suit upgrade." Hiro answered as he turned on his computer. "Y'know, just to be prepared anyway. It's still a work-in-progress."

"We wish we could-" Aiko was about to say that but Rishi shushed her.

"Dude what are you thinking!" He exclaimed in silence. "You know we shouldn't-"

"Interfere in every mission Big Hero 6 faces..” Aiko muttered in realization, “I know.”

Shimamoto Line….

"Next station, SFIT Station." The intercom said. "Tsugi no eki, S-fitto-Eki." [3]

“I’m glad that I got a glimpse of the Art Museum with you.” Karmi said as she and Regina rode the train back to SFIT. “Thanks Roomie.”

“You’re welcome, Karms.” Regina replied, “Also, we should hang out more often during freetime. Make it like a Roommate-to-Roommate outing!”

Just then, the train stopped.

"Dear passengers." The intercom said. "It looks like there is an issue with this train. Rest assured, we will resume services in no time.”

"What issue?" Rich, who was holding a box of cupcakes, asked. “I need to get to SFAI so I can give these to my friend!”

However, her question was answered when the train suddenly slid out of control.

“Looks like we have found the problem.” The intercom said. “We will try to fix it as soon as possible. For now, hold on.”

As the train sped at high speeds, all passengers were holding onto their seats.

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology....

Meanwhile, as Hiro is finishing up his work in the lab, he then gets a new message from the Big Hero 6 chat group. 

"Guys, there is a runaway train headed for its depot." Gogo messaged, with an image of the train. "It's headed to Shima Line's SFAI station."

"Baymax! We have to suit up!" Hiro exclaimed, before running off with Baymax.

Just then, Rishi’s eyes turned to a news feed.

“Oh my gosh!” Rishi exclaimed in shock.

“Huh? What is it?!” Aiko asked, worried.

“Your sister told you that she planned to ride the Red Line with Karmi a while ago, right?” Rishi asked.

“Yeah, why?” Aiko replied, but her question was answered when..

“Breaking news! A runaway train that operates as a part of Shimamoto Line is out of control!” Bluff Dunder said. “I HOPE BIG HERO 6 ARE ON THEIR WAY, AND I THINK I SEE THE BLUE GUY!”

Shimamoto Line....

Hiro and Baymax were flying to the station. 

"Don't worry team. Baymax and I are on our way." Hiro said on his intercom.

"Same with me!" Wasabi exclaimed on his end as he rode on Fred's back. "I'm glad I have a vacant schedule during this hour!”

As Fred and Wasabi make it to the scene, the heroes start their attempt to stop the train using different methods.

Honey Lemon thought of making an ice barrier by throwing one of her chemballs to the direction where the train was headed. But instead, it broke thanks to the train's speed.

"It's too fast!" She exclaimed. "I can't stop it!"

"Then we'll slow it down!" Gogo said, before Wasabi used his blades to cut the connections of the 2nd to 4th cabins and the front cabins. Gogo then used her discs to break the wheels from the three cabins, causing them to stop.

"Any luck?"Hiro asked.

"Well, we managed to stop 3 cabins. But the front cabin is headed towards the depot!" Fred said.

"We'll help the passengers get off safely. You and Baymax should stop the front one." Gogo suggested.

"Okie dokie!" Hiro exclaimed, but Baymax noticed something.

"Oh no.." Baymax said. 

“What is it?” Hiro asked in worry.

"Amongst the passengers are Regina and Karmi." Baymax replied, shocking the team.

As for Regina and Karmi, they were trying to reach their friends’ number, but to no avail.

“The internet must be cut!” Regina gasped.

“And the cupcakes! They’re in trouble!” Rich exclaimed.

“And our classes!” Another passenger exclaimed, “I don’t think we’ll make it!”

"Our friends!" Fred exclaimed. "We don't want them harmed."

"Don't worry guys, it's up to me and Baymax to stop it." Hiro said as he got off Baymax’s back, before turning his jet thrusters on. 

It was a newer version of the jet thrusters he used while chasing Sirque in a series of portals.

 "Head for the depot. We need to get everyone to safety." Hiro then told the others.

"Got it!" The four heroes exclaimed as Baymax landed in front of the train, pus⅔hing it in the opposite direction.

At the same time, Hiro, using his newly upgraded jet boots, flew to the back of the cabin and used 4 mini-magnets to form a rope between his gloves. 

"Full thrusters on!" Hiro said as he set his jet-boots to full power. “Baymax! Push the train from the opposite side.

As for the passengers, they were elated when Hiro tried pulling the train from the back, while Baymax pushed the train from the opposite side.

As for the other four heroes..

“Guys, I don’t think Hiro and Baymax pushing the train would help stop it.” Wasabi said, “I think they need some help.”

“On it!” Honey and Gogo exclaimed in unison, while Fred and Wasabi ran to the next station, the SFIT Station.

Meanwhile, Rishi and Aiko made their way to the station, with their tickets in their hands. They also brought their tech with them.

"I hope my sister’s okay!” Aiko exclaimed as she and Rishi went through the ticket barrier. “Rishi, maybe try to hack the train to make it slower.”

Rishi pulled out his tablet and started pressing some buttons. Just then, Wasabi and Fred arrive at the station.

“Our apologies everyone!” Fred exclaimed as he kept everyone out of the tracks. “Incoming train coming right ahead!”

“Brace yourselves!” Wasabi exclaimed as he protected everyone from what’s going to happen.

As for the girls, Honey manages to use the machine gun feature on her purse to slow the cabin down by hitting its wheels.

“Hiro!” Gogo exclaimed, “Need a little help?

“Glad you asked.” Hiro responded, shooting a mini-magnet on Gogo’s hover disc. The four heroes work together to stop the train, which worked, saving everyone inside the train.

"We're saved!" Karmi exclaimed. "Captain Cutie saved us!"

"OH MY GOSH!! Big Chibi 6 mentioned!" Rich exclaimed just as Baymax opened the door. Everyone exited the train with the help of the other heroes.

"Thank you for reading my roommate's fanfic!" Regina exclaimed at Rich. "See you around!" She added, before she and Karmi exited the train.

Seconds later, the heroes reunite at SFIT station.

"We did it!" Mini-Max exclaimed as he and the other heroes arrived at the station.

“Thanks to us.” Rishi whispered as he turned off his tablet, before looking at his roommate. “If you didn’t suggest that, then the train would’ve crashed.”

Just then, an alarm was heard from outside the station.

The Streets....

Turns out, the Supersonics were robbing the ATMs.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA! With that amount of money, I will surely be able to beat Boss Awesome's record!" Sue exclaimed as she got some of the paper bills out of the money.

"Yeah! We will also serve our new boss with that, right?" Stu muttered, before the heroes came into their view, preparing their gears.

Okay... It's A DOUBLE PROBLEM!" Fred exclaimed. "First is a runaway train headed to SFAI, and now THIS?!?!"

As Fred said that, the duo's eyes turned to them.

"Hey Ethel! And hello little one, Hiro!" Sue said, much to the heroes' (especially Hiro and Gogo) dismay.

"Frederick am I right..?" Stu asked as he approached Fred, who answered,

“Uh! Nope!”

“Unbelievable..” Honey exclaimed. "She knows our names!"

"Really?" Wasabi added.

“Yeah!” Hiro said as he landed on the floor. “Obake must’ve recruited them.”

On the other hand, Rishi and Aiko exited the station.

“We better help them!” Rishi exclaimed.

“I agree!” Aiko said, “But we must be careful.”

Just then, the heroes were having a fight with the Supersonics.

"Great, what an absurd way of giving away the identities of all 6 of us.." Gogo muttered, before throwing a disk on Sue's leg.

"Yes, we do! Our new master told us all about you!" Stu said, protecting his grandmother from Gogo's disk by rolling into a ball.

“I knew Obake was working with them..” Hiro muttered.

"Now good luck concealing your identities" Sue laughed before she and Stu escaped. 

However, they started slowing down.

"Mama!" Stu exclaimed as he and Sue slowed down, feeling their rocket skates power off. "Our gears are down."

"How?" Sue gasped.

"It's because of a hack I discovered." Rishi said as he arrived at the scene, with Aiko following suit. In response, Sue skated towards Aiko.

"Not so fast!" She exclaimed before throwing a freeze tag at the ground, causing them to slip. Just then, Honey throws a chem-ball at the duo, trapping them in ice. 

“This ends now,” Hiro said to the mother-and-son duo. “..Supersonics.”

"Do you think you could escape us teenagers?" Sue chuckled.

"Not to mention us attending college at a super young age!" Rishi exclaimed back.

"Well then.. Y'all must prepare for our return!" Sue exclaimed, before she and Stu made their escape, albeit with difficulties.

“I knew it!” Aiko exclaimed. “I knew we’re ready to be like Big Hero 6!”

Just then, the heroes' eyes turned to the roommates.

"Who are you?" Hiro asked. "And is it just me, or is it that you really looked like my two best friends."

"Wait a minute!" Wasabi said. "I know that tablet!"

Big Hero 6 Base….

Later, the heroes brought Aiko and Rishi to their base. 

"We just saw your battle with those roller skaters yesterday so we thought you may need some help." Aiko said. "You all protected us from the bad guys, and now we're doing the same thing to you." 

"So, we kind of decided to help you, since you might be aware of Obak-" Rishi added.

Hiro went up to them and said,

"Listen, I-I know you wanted to help. But, I guess you can, by keeping our identities safe."

However, the roommates were against that.

"What? But the city might be in doomsday mode!" Rishi argued.

"Loob guys, I don't think 6 heroes could save the world." Aiko said. "The world has 8 billion people globally, from 195 countries!”

However, Wasabi spoke up.

"I know you guys are right, but Hiro's right, you shouldn’t step in to interfere."

"Yeah. It could put your lives at risk, or worse...." Hiro said as Aiko and Rishi looked at each other with shock.

Obake's Lair….

Meanwhile, the Supersonics arrive at the lair, frozen and stuck in ice.

"This has been the worst mission we've got!" Sue exclaimed as she and Stu climbed the stairs.

"Yeah, ma. Especially when Big Hero 6 has 2 sidekicks!" Stu added. "They must be friends with Hamada! Judging by their looks and their tone."

"One must be 14 and one must be a chunky 9-year old."

"The Supersonics... You did it again.." Obake greeted as the mother-and-son duo arrived at his room. "What a shame the heroes beat you again.."

"Yeah! With-" Sue was about to explain but was cut off by her grandson.

"Mama. Maybe we shouldn't tell him.." Stu said. "Let's just keep it to ourselves."

"Does the world ourselves include me?" A voice said. It came from Sirque! "Bonjour! I'm Sirque. Nice to meet you two!"

As she introduced herself, she tried giving the duo a handshake, but they politely declined.

"Looks like we have a new member of our team.." Trina said as she arrived at the room. "Meet Sir-"

"Oh non! Too late fillette!" Sirque replied, “I actually introduced myself already to them.”

SFIT Dormitories....

Some time passed, and it was already evening. And Rishi and Aiko arrived at their room, with Karmi and Regina waiting outside, angered.

"Are nahin!" Rishi exclaimed in shock.

"It means "Oh no" to you.." Karmi said.

"Wha- Why are you guys here...?" Aiko muttered, nervously.

"Hey sister..." Regina greeted. "We just heard that Big Hero 6 stopped that train."

"Well, at least we were safe!" Aiko replied.

"Yeah, but it's not the train incident we're talking about." Regina clarified.

"Why did you two interfere by stopping the Supersonics?" Karmi said. "You know that it's dangerous, right?"

"But at least we have our own gear-" Rishi was about to say that, only for him to be shushed by Aiko.

"Look, we know it's dangerous. But someone has to help." Aiko explained. "That's why we risked our lives to stop them."

"Yeah. The heroes needed a rest. Especially Hiro," Rishi added. "...who has been very busy lately. Mentoring me, having to work on Krei Tech, stopping all the trouble, etcetera etcetera."

Krei Tech….

Speaking of Hiro, he was working on his internship at Krei Tech.

"Wonder if Aiko will apply for an internship here.." Hiro muttered.

"Aiko?" Nata asked, "Who's Aiko?"

"Oh! She's my best friend at school." Hiro replied. "We hang out most of the time with some of my other friends." He added, before getting an idea. "Hey Nata. If you want, you could visit me at SFIT, when you're free.”

"Oh sure!" Nata replied, before she heard a voice coming from the hallways. "What's that sound...?"

"Hiroooooooooo!" Ciel exclaimed as he stopped at Hiro and Nata’s lab. "Have you seen Myn-myn...?"

"Uh.. What are you talking about Ciel..?" Hiro asked as he walked to the door.

"My cat! He ran away from me just now!" Ciel explained. "Me and Miles were chasing him just now!"

"Yeah!" Miles exclaimed. "Look! Here he is!" He said, pointing at the orange cat, who was crying as it ran back to Ciel.

"Aww.." Hiro and Nata said.

"I wish I got to do that with Mochi." Hiro muttered. "She's always with Aunt Cass at the cafe. Better get home before night."

Just then, Rich, who was holding a “Big Chibi 6” book, stopped by, asking,

"Hey guys! What did I miss?"

"Nah. It's just Ciel losing one of his cats, again." Miles said. "But don't worry Rich, we found her just now."

"Oh." Rich muttered.

As for Hiro, his eyes landed on the book Rich was holding.

"Oh wow, I didn't know you're a fan of Big Chibi 6." Hiro said as he stood from his seat, before walking towards Rich. "I mean, I have- uhh..."

"What, Hiro-kun..?"

"Met the author before!" Hiro exclaimed. "Well, she's one of my friends." He described, “Speaking of her, she better be okay by now.”

"Yeah." Rich exclaimed. "I was on the same train as her and her friend last afternoon! I'm glad Big Hero 6 stepped in to stop it!"

“Really?” Hiro gasped, "Wow."

"Then so were you and Caleb!” Nata said, “He messaged me about that train incident and I think he was at the second cabin.."

Just then, the clock striked 8’o clock.

"Guys, me and Baymax have to go." Hiro said as he got his bag from the floor. "See you guys next shift!"

"Bye!" Hiro's four coworkers exclaimed in unison as he and Baymax exited the lab. 

It was pure silence until Rich pulled out a box from her bag.

"Comfort cards, anyone?" She asked. [5]

"Don't mind if I do." Miles said. "I'm so tired of all this running."

“Yeah.” Caleb said as he stopped on his tracks. “Maybe it will help me process what happened today.”

SFIT Dormitories....

It was already evening, and Aiko and Rishi were already in their room, preparing for dinner. They are also in their pajamas, with Rishi’s pajamas being a light green long-sleeve shirt and pants with the same color, and Aiko’s pajamas being a purple sando with light blue pants.

"You were right, Rish." Aiko said as she turned on her computer. "Maybe we should let our heroes do the business instead of us getting into their way."

"I agree, roomie. But I'm so concerned about Hiro." Rishi replied. "I mean, I already know that he has gone through a lot. Not to mention having to juggle two lives."

"Yeah. He told me about his internship just now." Aiko added. "He really needs a break."

Just then, they both hear a ring on the doorbell. Rishi opens the door only to find the delivery guy with the food.

"It's our food!" He exclaimed.

"Really?! What a fast delivery." Aiko said as she walked towards the door. "I mean, me and sissy had to struggle waiting for twenty to thirty minutes for our food to arrive. I'm glad I brought this little board game for us to wait for."

"Cool! So, a game night's a go?" Rishi replied and asked as he walked to the couch, placing the food on the coffee table.

"Yup. It's called the Ring War." Aiko chuckled as she unfolded the game. "It's a game where there are about two to four teams trying to fight for one team. Right now we're the only ones here-."

'You versus me!" Rishi exclaimed. 

"I was about to say that!"

"Got it. I'm in." Rishi said. "Hope we get to play this game with the others."

"Yeah. If only they’re available..”

Lucky Cat Cafe....

"Hey Aunt Cass!" Hiro greeted as he entered through the cafe's door.

"Oh hi Hiro!" Aunt Cass greeted back. "How's class? And I forgot to tell you this, but your friend Honey Lemon is now going to work here."

"It's good, Aunt Cass. But Honey working in the cafe? It would be totally awesome!" Hiro said, dramatically, much to his aunt's confusion. "Better go to bed! I had a really tiring day."

"Oh. Okay."

As Hiro ran up to his room, he placed Baymax on the charging port.

“What a day.. Today’s lesson was difficult, a Red Line train going out of control with Karmi and Regina in there, and Rishi and Aiko interfering during our mission.” Hiro rambled, “At least Nata gave me this book. Maybe it could distract me from what happened” He muttered as he sat on his bed, looking at a book that says, “Little Kids”

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

Inside the Shared Labs, Hiro was still reading the book Nata gave him from yesterday.

“Cool book, Hiro!” Fred, seated beside Hiro, said as he was reading his comics.

“Thanks Fred.” Hiro replied, until he flipped a certain page. “Yes! Finally reached the middle of the book.” He celebrated, until Regina and Karmi entered.

“Good afternoon Hiro!” Regina greeted as she went into her part of the lab. As for Karmi, she looked at the book Hiro was reading.

“Hmm.. That book actually inspired me to do fanfiction.” Karmi told Hiro.

“Really? No wonder why you’re so active at FanFictionDotCom!” Hiro realized. “Actually, Nata gave me this book as a gift. And I’ve been reading it so I could distract myself from what happened yesterday.”

“That’s great Hiro!” Regina came out of her lab.

“Really?”

“Yup. Because you’re distancing yourself from, not just Aiko and Rishi risking their lives to help,” Karmi explained, “..but from staring at the screen!”

“And one more thing, you need to catch a break from all those new equipment gimmicks.” Regina added, “Maybe focus on your studies once in a while.”

Just then, Aiko, who was sporting the exact same outfit she wore on her first day, enters the lab.

“Hey guys!” She greeted.

“Hey Aiko!” Everyone else greeted back. As for Fred, he notices something.

“That’s odd.” He said, “You usually go to the lab with Rishi, right?”

“Yeah, but his class is overtime.” Aiko replied, “In other words, his class hasn’t ended.”

Just then, Hiro’s phone started ringing.

“Gogo?” Hiro responded.

“Sirque and El Fuego are in the public library!” Gogo said from the other line, “Wasabi told me that he has classes at that time, which means we need you and Fred, ASAP!”

“We’re on our way.” Hiro said. Ending the call, he immediately dials his and Fred’s Skymaxes. “Meet us in my Lab in SFIT. Now!”

“What happened?” Regina asked.

“Long story short, but Sirque and El Fuego are in the library!” Hiro explained. “Me, Baymax and Fred have to go!”

“Okay!” Karmi said.

“Good luck with the mission!” Aiko also said, before Hiro, Baymax and Fred left.

In the hallway, Rishi passed by.

“Hey Hamada!” He greeted. “Where are you headed?”

“A mission.” Hiro replied, until something chimed on his head. “I have an idea!”

Rishi turned his head towards Hiro and asked,

“What is it?”

“Tell Aiko to head to the lab.” Hiro explained.

“For what?”

“Trust me!” Hiro said, before he and the other two heroes ran. As for Rishi..

“Aiko! We have to go to Hiro’s lab!” He called out.

“Huh?” Aiko was shocked and curious.

“Looks like Big Hero 6 needed you both after all..” Karmi muttered.

“I think so.”

“Then go for it!” Regina exclaimed. “Good luck guys!”

The Streets….

Moments later, the heroes (sans Wasabi), Rishi and Aiko, who were in helmets, were flying through the skies.

“I can’t believe it!” Aiko exclaimed, “Us helping out on an official Big Hero 6 mission!”

“Cool, right?” Fred said, “Isn’t it.”

The heroes landed in front of the library, where the police were outside.

“Great timing Big Hero 6!” Officer Flynn greeted as she approached them. “Sirque and El Fuego are in the library and Chief Cruz is trapped!”

“Huh?!” Hiro exclaimed in shock.

“And you can’t get through here!” Detective Kato added, “Go through the roof! It’s open!”

San Fransokyo Library….

“Whatever you two are doing, surrender in the name of the law!” Chief Cruz commanded.

“Not until we get this.” Sirque said as she was about to reach for the book. However, the heroes and their allies arrived just in time, with Hiro taking the book using his mini-magnets.

“Not so fast, Sirque.” Hiro said, “If you want this book, then you have to go through us!”

Sirque uses a portal to sneak up to Hiro’s back, but she is blocked by Baymax, who greeted,

“Hello.”

“You seven are very annoying.” Sirque grunted. “Fuego!”

“You got me, Mi Amor. As for you, one move you're burnt.” El Fuego threatened, before shooting fire at Honey, who used Ice to turn it into smoke. Sirque manages to escape from Baymax’s hands and snatches the book from Hiro’s hands. However, Gogo intervenes by flying into her, hitting her with the disc.

“I’m giving this performance a zero out of ten!” She said, angering her.

As for El fuego, he prepares to shoot fire at Rishi, who was trying to save Chief Cruz using a pocket knife.

“I didn’t know you carried that.” The Chief muttered.

“Well, not always,” Rishi clarified, “..but only in situations like this.”

“Oopsie!” Aiko taunted. She purposely threw a freeze tag on El Fuego’s left canon. “Not so fast.”

“At Least I have another one-”

“I’ll take that.” Hiro said as he shot a magnet on El Fuego’s back before using his gauntlets, which transformed into the sonic wave gauntlets from his flexible display bodysuit, to turn off the power source of El Fuego.

El Fuego tries to run, but he ends up getting hit by a buddy guardian, which was hacked by Rishi, and an ice chem-ball from Honey Lemon’s purse.

“Sirque got away.” Baymax said.

“Leave this to me.” Rishi said, “I will try to use my drone to scan for her from a distance.”

“Wow, I must say little one.” Chief Cruz commended, “You’re a genius. Speaking of that, who are you?”

“Meet Rishi!” Hiro said as he went up to him. “He is my protege.”

“Well, with that out of the way, I suppose you guys will still catch her, right?” Chief Cruz asked.

“Yup.” Gogo said.

“If I’m not mistaken, I think she just stole a big book with a maroon case from the History section..” Aiko muttered.

“I have a feeling that it has something to do with the city’s history..” Gogo muttered.

Big Hero 6 Base….

The heroes (Including Wasabi, who has finished his shift), Aiko and Rishiwere in the conference room. Rishi finds a shocking discovery.

“Um guys?” Rishi called out. “I think I found where Sirque is.” He said, placing his tablet on Basemax’s screen.

He then zooms in the picture, shocking everyone.

“I knew it!” Gogo exclaimed. “All this time, I knew that it had something to do with the city’s history!”

“Whatever Obake is up to, we will be ready.” Hiro said, “Even though we still have no clue about what he is about to do.”

“I hope it isn’t another catastrophe..” Wasabi muttered

“You’re talking about the one that happened in 1906 and the one that almost happened last year,” Rishi asked, “..right?”

“Yeah. That was the time we were new heroes.” Hiro said.

“Scan complete.” Basemax said, but Hiro had other plans

“About that, scan for Sirque instead.” Hiro commanded, only for Rishi to interrupt.

“I actually know where she is.” Rishi said. “As for me and Aiko, we have an idea.”

Shimamoto’s House….

With a stolen keycard, Sique enters the house, where Big Hero 6 and Chief Cruz were waiting for her.

“Not so fast,” Sirque said as she used her portal to take them back to the base.

Big Hero 6 Base….

“Not again!” Chief Cruz exclaimed, but Hiro calmed him down.

“Don’t worry Chief,” Hiro told him, “It was a part of the plan.”

“Guys, you can do it..” Honey muttered.

Shimamoto’s House….

“They won’t find out..” Sirque muttered.

“Still here!” A voice said, much to Sirque’s shock.

Just then, a drone flies up to her.

“I was thinking that you needed new hair.” Rishi’s voice said as the drone started tangling all of Sirque’s hair.

With Sirque distracted, Aiko, using a cloaking tag, snatches the book out of her hands.

“Boo!” Aiko scared Sirque, causing her to use her portal orbs to make a portal, but they didn’t do anything. As for Aiko, she used her portal tablets to head back to the base.

“Huh?” Sirque said.

“I shutted them off.” Rishi said as he showed the acrobat his tablet.

Finally, Aiko teleports back to the house, with the heroes and Chief Cruz in tow.

Seconds later, the heroes and the allies watched as Sirque was taken away in a police van.

“Detective Kato, make sure she is taken into SecuriTech’s prison.” Chief Cruz said. “Don’t worry, Big Hero 6, I will bring up the possibility of an award for heroism.”

“It’s okay Chief. We wanted to help.” Hiro said, “We started this team because of one person, and that is Tadashi.”

“Your brother?” Chief Cruz asked.

“Yup. As he said before he died,” Honey replied.

“..someone has to help.” Hiro completed Honey’s sentence.

Obake’s Lair….

“That’s impossible..” Obake muttered. “I thought they were useful..”

“Yeah.” Trina said, “But that’s not going to stop us from finding someone else useful.”

Obake and Trina are both aware of what happened thanks to the news. However, Obake knows that he is not giving up.

“Of course we will find someone.” Obake said, determinedly, “Someone who can grab that book, without getting caught by Big Hero 6.”

Chapter Text

Fredrickson Manor....

"So, how's the movie, Ricochet?" Fred asked as he arrived at the room, carrying two buckets of popcorn.

"I'm not really used to being called that, Freddie." Rishi said. "But so far, enjoying the movie." He added. Well, except the first few scenes" [1] 

Fred placed the popcorns on the coffee table and sat on the couch and said,

"I told you it's gonna be great! And you're definitely watching it again when this gets an adaptation, right?"

"Yes!!" Both Rishi and Fred exclaimed.

It was nighttime, and they and Mini-Max were having a movie night in the former's room.

"I agree with the adoption idea! Except that I won't be watching it if Maja Minerva does not have a role!"

Mini-Max suddenly flies in front of the two, blocking the TV.

"I-I-I-I-I-I agree with you, humans." Mini-Max said, his battery running low.

He eventually falls into the popcorn, prompting Rishi to pick it up while Fred ate the popcorn that fell onto the floor.

"Dudes got a dead battery, Frederick.." Rishi muttered as he looked at the small robot.

"You're right, Rishi. Was about to charge him up just now." Fred said as he got up and took Mini-Max in his hands.

Time passed by so quickly that it was morning. Fred and Rishi have fallen asleep during the movie. Hiro was giving the two sleepyheads a call.

"Fred." Hiro said on the other line as he was riding on his scooter. "Rishi?"

However, while he expected an answer from the two, they were still fast asleep.

"Fred? Frederick? Frederick Fredrickson and Rishi Patel!" Hiro tried to get both of them awake but to no avail, forcing him to park his scooter on the side. He turns up his microphone's volume and..

"GUYS! Do you both have hearing impairment?!" He exclaimed, jolting the two awake. [2]

Fred leaned onto the couch while Rishi stood up, looking at Heathcliff.

"Wha- What?" Fred asked as he yawned.

"Hamada. What time is it?" Rishi asked as he looked at his phone. "7:50!? I-"

"Knew you should've set your alarm before getting back to bed." Hiro completed Fred's phrase.

"Ughhhhhh.." Fred slouched on his seat.

"Definitely gonna try to reprogram little Baymax-" 

Rishi was about to say that, but Fred spoke up instead.

"Mini-Max." Fred said. "Next time, please remind me to set the alarm before getting to bed."

Hiro started the scooter back up and started moving.

"So. How's the movie?" Hiro asked as he drove past Krei Tech, where Angie was passing by.

"Pretty good. Except that we slept through it." Rishi answered as Fred got Mini-Max off the charger.

"At least I turned the TV off and saved the movie for later viewing." Heathcliff added as he entered the room. "You two get ready. I will drive you both to SFIT."

"Yay!" Both cheered, especially Rishi.

"Wow! Me riding in a limo, nice!" Rishi jumped as he took his tablet off the charging port.

"Well, I was actually about to offer you a ride as a special thank you for attending this sleepover!" Fred explained. "Also, I better practice my cheerleading stunt with Aiko later at lunch."

"Speaking of cheerleading, I cannot believe that I'm saying this but.." Rishi said. "Professor Granville is allowing me to help with the annual SFIT Fall Parade!" Rishi exclaimed. "And I'm more excited about what type of task she will have me assigned."

"Cool! For me, I will help the Robotics Club with the float." Hiro said as his scooter came to a halt. "And by that, programming most of the floats..."

The conversation went to silence as Hiro looked at his surroundings in worry and concern.

"Well, I have some good news and bad news." Hiro then said.

"What is it?" Fred asked as he ate the remaining popcorn.

"Please tell Professor Granville that I may be late today." Hiro said. "The traffic in here is becoming a lot of a hassle."

The cars started piling up as the traffic moved.

"You could've stayed with us, genius." Rishi mocked, before Fred bumped him with his elbow.

"Rishi Patel, this is a gentle reminder that you shouldn't be mean to a robotics genius who is the leader of Big Hero 6." Fred said as he looked at Rishi, who was surprised. "Especially when you are going to ride in my limo. First come, first serve."

"Oh, right. Sorry." Rishi muttered. "Anyways, me and Fred are going to head out now."

"Yup, since Heathcliff knows his way to SFIT." Fred said as he stood up from the couch.

San Fransokyo Streets....

However, it was very hard since..

"Except when there are a lot of closed roads.." Fred muttered as he and Rishi waited for the other cars to move.

------------------------------------------------------------

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology....

Meanwhile, the school was full of decorations, set up for the parade. Everyone was getting themselves ready.

“This is exciting, Karms!" Regina exclaimed as she carried a couple of boxes. The boxes were full of decorations for the aforementioned parade that is bound to happen in SFIT. "Our first time contributing to a parade together!

"Yup, although I contributed to a parade before." Karmi said as she placed a box that weighs 200 pounds.

Just then, the two passed by Wasabi.

"Good morning, Professor Wasabi!" Regina greeted as she and Karmi arrived, before placing her box on the floor. "Ow. Is my sister there yet?"

"Well, yes. But Hiro, Fred, and Rishi told me that they might be late." Wasabi answered as he looked at his phone. "There's traffic over there."

"Yup, that's why I hate driving." Karmi calmfully said as she sat beside Regina on a bench. "I'm scared of breaking the law."

"Same with me." Regina said.

"And the time I tried riding a bike.."  Aiko, who is sporting a denim jacket and shorts, muttered as she entered the scene, drinking a cup of water from her tumblr. "That's why I HATE RIDING ON TWO-WHEELED VEHICLES!" She exclaimed, before composing herself. "That includes Hiro's scooter, which I liked."

"Okay, I understand, but I better organize these boxes." Wasabi said. "Means I better head off."

"Bye Mr. Wasabi!" The trio said..

The three girls took a sudden glance at each other and said,

"I wonder what today's class will be about.."

Time passed and it was afternoon, and Hiro's friendship circle and Wasabi all gathered on the school's dome pods. It features a table similar to the ones used in the Periodic CaFe but inside a sphere.

"Traffic's rough today." Hiro said as he turned on his laptop.

"I definitely agree with that." Rishi said. "Me and Fred were so close to being late!"

"And since it's free right now, I just want to share with you guys the list of things I bought today." Aiko said, unfolding a paper. "All of these are for the parade." She added as she gave everyone else time to read

"Why a guitar? I don't even play guitars." Wasabi asked. "And I don't think there is a guitar for the parade.

"If you want, you could give it to Hiro-" Karmi suggested, only for Hiro to interrupt.

"Nope. Not allowing that guitar to end up in my hands." Hiro said as he politely rejected the guitar. "I don't even like singing! What about Fred?"

"I was about to say that, Hamada.." Rishi muttered.

"Besides, he knows how to use a sitar." Hiro added. "And from what I know, sitars do look like guitars."

"It rhymes.." Rishi muttered.

"Are you saying that..." Fred muttered as he got hold of the guitar. "For me? THANKS!!!!!!!" He exclaimed, playing some of the guitar's notes in a very weird way.

"I guess he's enjoying it." Regina said.

Just then, Professor Granville stopped by their pod and said,

“Does it  look like I'm interrupting a conversation over here?”

"Speaking of enjoyment. Professor Granville.." Karmi muttered as her eyes turned to the professor.

"Oh!"

"Good morning Professor Granville!" Everyone greeted her.

"Good morning." Baymax greeted her as well.

"Good morning, students." Professor Granville greeted back. "I'm here to give you guys a heads up on what we would be doing this afternoon and tomorrow the entire day."

"Cool!" Aiko said. "What is it?"

"First of all, how are your rehearsals going, Mr. Fredrickson and Ms. Aiko Watanabe."

"Oh it's fine!" Fred exclaimed. "Well, except the time I nearly fell into a tree but I'm alright!"

"We took him into the school's clinic after that." Aiko said.

Professor Granville’s eyes glances at Rishi.

"Finally, Mr. Patel, I will need you to get your remote controlling skills ready." She said in a strict manner as she sat on the dome's chair.

"What's it for?" Rishi asked.

"You will need to control some drones. Maybe forty to the exact." Professor Granville replied.

"Forty?! That's too much! I just joined SFIT!" Rishi exclaimed.

"I know. But you're the only one who can manipulate or control multiple devices at once." Professor Granville explained, much to Rishi's dismay. "Now, I'm saying this because tomorrow will be the last day to prepare for the parade."

"Oof." Karmi deadpanned as she slouched back on her seat. “That’s cold.”

“A towel will help cool you down.” Baymax said as he took a piece of towel from Aiko’s box.

"You will be spending the next couple of hours preparing for the parade." Professor Granville said, before making her leave. "Good luck, students."

As Granville left, the students tried to process everything she said.

"Unbelievable." Rishi deadpanned.

As for Hiro, he gets an idea to speak to Regina.

"Regina?" He asked politely for his friend's attention. "Can I talk to you for a moment."

"Oh sure." Regina answered as she and Hiro got off the chair. "What is it?"

"Well, I heard that you used to be friends with Honey Lemon." Hiro said. "But, she needs to be on-campus in order to help with the chemistry float."

"I'd be okay with that!" Regina chimed with excitement, before being anxious. "I mean, it's been a year since she last stayed with me." She added, before her eyes suddenly turned to Honey and Gogo, who were both wearing Alumni Passes.

"Wait, is that the Regina you're talking about?" Gogo asked as she dismounted.

"Yes. And I do not like her personality." Honey replied angrily. "Not to mention she literally blamed me for that..."

As she said that, tears started to form under her previous roommate's eyes.

“That-” Regina cried.

"Oh my gosh!" Aiko gasped as she noticed her sister crying. "Are you okay? Are your feelings hurt?" She added as she rushed to Regina, who was given a hug by Hiro. "Although I always ask this question to my roommate all the time."

"I still remember it." Honey said furiously. "That so-called "Icy Incident" that froze my dorm and Regina altogether!"

"Regina, it is okay if you don't want to be near her." Baymax said as he hugged Regina as a way to comfort her. "I have ways of overcoming a past. With the most popular one being-"

"It's okay, Baymax." Regina clarified, with a little bit of tears falling. "I will try not to be mean."

After some time, Regina started walking towards Honey Lemon, feeling nervous.

"H-honey?" She muttered as she went closer.

"Oh, long time no see, Gina." Honey said as she approached Regina, who was feeling nervous about going eye to eye with an old frenemy. "Seems you have changed since I left.."

"Honey, I have some things to talk about." Regina said as she took a step closer to Honey.

On her friends' end, Hiro receives a notification.

"Oh!" Hiro said as he took his phone out of his pocket. "It's my internship, and it's important."

"Okay...." Rishi said as he looked at Baymax. "Can Airbags stay?" He added, until everyone else looked at him with suspicion.

"You want Baymax to stay?" Karmi said, "I have a feeling you might hack him."

"Yeah. Not to mention you hacking him while Hiro was touring you at SFIT." Wasabi explained.

"Baymax can stay in one condition.." Hiro said.

"What is it?" Rishi asked.

"You have to look after him." Hiro responded, as he kept his phone into the pocket. "He has a problem with his battery capability."

"You mean he turns into a sleepy pillow?" Rishi asks as he receives a hug from Baymax.

"There there." The robot said, patting Rishi's head.

"Just like Mini-Max?" Rishi added as he hugged Baymax back.

"Yes. It could also give me a struggle when at work.." Hiro responded as he took out the keys of his scooter, which has a ton of keychains, with the  "...or my internship, so I need you to look after him."

As Hiro was about to leave, Rishi ran up to him and got hold of his arm.

Rishi’s eyes glanced at the keychain.

"Okay, but one question." Rishi asked as he looked at the keychain. "Is it just me, or is it that you and Aiko share the same keychain designs?"

"Actually, I made the keychains myself." Aiko responded as she took one similar to Hiro's and her's. "Not to mention this.."

"I actually have one?!!" Rishi exclaimed. Turns out, the keychain Aiko took out of her pocket was for him. Hence, his name being printed on it.

"Yup. Made by yours truly." Aiko said as she gave her roommate the keychain. "I also made some for sissy, Karmi, Professor Wasabi, Professor Granville, Professor Nekita, Fred-"

"I HAVE A KEYCHAIN????!" Fred interrupted as Aiko was explaining.

"Fred, you know it's very disrespectful to interrupt someone who's already explaining." Aiko muttered. "And yes, you have one." She added. "But the point is, I'm halfway finished with my sister's. And I'm yet to start working on yours and the others. That includes Gogo and the pink girl from Big Hero 6."

"Oh."

"Sorry guys! But I have to go now." Hiro said as he ran off to the exit. "I will see you all in the evening."

"Bye!" All exclaimed to the young genius.

Soon after, Regina approaches them with uncertainty.

"Hey sis?" Aiko said. "How do you feel saying the word "Hello." to your old roommate?"

"Glad.." Regina answered, anxiously. "Well, except she might dislike or cut ties with me."

Time passed by, and everyone was working on their assigned floats.

"Students, how are the preparations going?" Professor Granville asked as she exited from another building. "It's very unexpected for you two to help out, Gogo and Honey Lemon."

"Yup. Hiro, Fred, and Wasabi invited us here." Gogo responded as she helped out on the engineering club's float.

"Cool! It would be great if Mr. Trevor, Miss Minerva, Miss Liang, Miss Gomez, Miss Samonte, and Miss Diaz would be able to help." The dean said. "But I didn't hear from them at all. Miss Samonte told me that she wouldn't come because of a family emergency. And Miss Minerva has a lot of schedules."

Everyone else was met with shock as they found out that their favorite star was actually an alum from SFIT..

"WAIT?! Maja Minerva is from SFIT?!" Aiko exclaimed in shock. "I know her!!!"

"Yup. She was from Batch 2001 with them." Professor Granville said. "Not to mention experiencing-" She was about to tell them, but suddenly remembered something. "I don't want to say it but if you discover it, don't tell anyone."

Just then, Rishi came up to the dean.

"Professor Granville!" He called out, prompting her to look at him.

"Yes, Mr. Patel?" The dean said.

"Can I take Baymax to my and Aiko's room?" He asked as he pointed towards the building where he and Aiko lived.

"As long as you are careful, this request is granted." Granville said as she accepted Rishi's plea. "Plus you need to work on controlling forty drones for the parade. Understood?"

"Yes, Granville." Rishi said.

As Rishi and Baymax left, everyone was working on their own duties, specifically helping out with the floats for some clubs in SFIT.

Krei Tech Industries....

Hiro was overseeing the Robotics Club's float, albeit online.

"This is all going according to what is planned." Hiro said as he was about to return to his internship duty. "See you in the evening, guys!"

As he ended the video call between him and his clubmates, Krei entered the lab in order to check on him.

"Hey, Intern!" Krei said, smirkingly. "How's this for the SFIT fall parade?"

"Looking good. I have been finalizing all the LED lights for the drone." Hiro said as he continued to work on something. "I wonder what Rishi is doing. But I need to fix Baymax when I get back."

Just then, he hears a knock on the door.

"Come in." He said.

The girl who was knocking was Rich.

"Hey Hiro!" She greeted him. "How's life going?"

"Well, it's going pretty well, I guess." Hiro replied, but wasn't sure what to say. "Well, except that I have to juggle my life as an intern and a student!"

"Oh Hiro.. Don't you worry. You're not alone." Nolan said as he passed by. "I mean, I'm also juggling two jobs, which is being an intern and a part-time missionary worker."

"Oooh.. Tell me more." Rich replied.

"Okay.. I became a missionary worker once after I graduated. That's all." Nolan explained.

Just then, Caleb suddenly enters the lab.

"Nuh-uh Caleb!" Rich said as she blocked Caleb's way.

"Aw come on Rich! I just want to talk with Nolan!" Caleb exclaimed.

"I get you, Caleb. Come in dude." Hiro said, allowing Caleb into his lab.

"Nolan! I need help!"

"Well well well.. What is it?" Nolan asked.

"I'm having a really rough time finalizing Angie's song for the Vision." Caleb said. "The lyrics are already set, but the instrumental.." He explained, showing his phone to Nolan and the others. [3]

"Well, I may not be a singer nor a composer. But I think you are having some sort of a composer's block." Hiro said. "Do you get it?"

"GET IT?! I DON'T LIKE BLOCKS AW COME ON!!" Caleb exclaimed.

His words were so loud, that even the colleagues working in their cubicles heard him.

“Gosh. I’ve never seen him that mad before..” Atlas muttered as he opened a drawer from his desk.

"I actually second Hiro's answer. Having some sort of block- “ Nolan was about to tell Caleb when Hiro suddenly interfered.

"Take inventor's block as an example." Hiro said. "I already went through that."

“Well, it is normal for anyone. Whether you're an inventor, an athlete, a singer, or what." Nolan explained. "And Hiro, thanks for supporting me whenever I struggle with words."

"Oh it's no problem. No problem at all" Hiro answered. “Also, I think my shift has come to an end. Better get back to my friends!”

“Okie dokie, Hiro!” Rich said as Hiro left off.

SFIT Dormitories....

"Baymax. Can I get a lolly?" Rishi said as he was chilling with Baymax on the couch.

"Here you-" Baymax said, before he started to surprise Rishi. "Go-Go-Go-Go-Go..."

"Ok lemme fix that.." Rishi said as he pulled out his tablet to fix Baymax back to his original state. "Can you power off a little, please?"

"I dooont tuuuuuurrrn offffffff-" Baymax said as he started to act a little drunk [4] for a robot.

"Oh my gosh!" Rishi gasped as he struggled to fix Baymax.

He struggled to put Baymax back into his normal state just as he heard the door.

"Aiko!" Rishi said as Aiko entered the dormitory.

"Hey Rishi!" Aiko said as she entered the room, and came to a surprise as she looked up at the ceiling. "WHAT'S WITH BAYMAX HANGING ON THE CHANDELIER?!"

"Hello." Baymax said, prompting Rishi to look at the chandelier.

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology....

Meanwhile, while Karmi was working with the Biology club's float and Regina was working on the Chemistry club's float, Honey Lemon starts to regret having to go to SFIT just to help out on two floats.

"I didn't know I had to help and oversee two floats at the same time..." She muttered. "I guess I have to go with it."

"Honey! I need a little help here." Karmi called out as she struggled with placing the balloons for the top of the float.

"Karms, how many times do we have to tell you, you can't mix up biology and robotics for one float!" Regina explained. "Professor Granville told us before, it's against the rules."

"I get Regina's point, maybe it's best you tie those on the railings of the float." Honey said.

"I guess so.." Karmi muttered.

"Here let me help."

As Honey Lemon helped Karmi tie the balloons on the railing, Regina felt very sad and embarrassed, as she is yet to repair her friendship with the former.

"I guess it's good for her to have her as a friend.." She muttered. Gogo, who noticed the look on Regina's face, feels bad for her and decides to walk up to her.

"Hey Regina." She greeted her. "Are you okay back there? Let me help."

"No- It's okay. I don't need it. I don't deserve it." Regina muttered as she curled up into a ball. "Especially when I know it's already my fault for that icy incident. I'm such a bully back there."

"Look, there is no one to blame for that incident.” Gogo told her, “I actually remember her accidentally messing up our flat by triggering a glitter bomb. That made me turn into a dust cloud.” She explained, “Despite that, I still didn’t blame her for that incident.”

As for Honey Lemon, she watched with concern.

SFIT Dormitories....

Rishi, with Aiko’s help, manages to take Baymax off the ceiling.

"Okay I need to fix him.." Rishi said as he rushed to fix Baymax's glitch. "He is acting a little drunk and I couldn't turn him off!"

"Oh. So that’s why you ran back to our room." Aiko said as she moved a few boxes that were empty. "I'm moving these boxes here for y'know.."

"Another box fort of ours?" Rishi guessed. "That reminds me of when we tried making a car out of boxes.."

"Definitely a bad idea to do it inside our room.” Aiko said. “Right? We’re gonna try doing it in the courtyard the next time we make a box fort. Maybe a box version of the candy factory-”

“You know we shouldn’t reveal any of the heroes’ private information. That includes the candy factory aka. The base itself!” Rishi replied, much to Aiko’s concern. “Also, speaking of the base, I have an idea!” He then said, taking Baymax with him.

Big Hero 6 Base….

As for Hiro, he was doing some work on his scooter when Rishi entered his hangar.

“Hey Hamada!” Rishi greeted him as he entered through the door.

“Oh! Hey Rish.” Hiro greeted his protege back, “Sorry I didn’t notice you. I was headed to the cafe when I noticed something was wrong with my scooter. That is why I had to make a stop here.”

“I see..”

“Well, how’s Baymax?” Hiro asked as he juggled his wrench, “I heard that he glitched earlier.”

“THAT’S THE PROBLEM!” Rishi exclaimed, “I couldn’t focus on practicing my drone controlling skill for the parade!” He explained.

“Look, I know it’s just too difficult when Baymax is like that.” Hiro told his prodigy. “But for me, I just stay still. Like staying calm. Even if it means that it’s hard. Just like my brother’s death.”

As he said that, tears started falling on Hiro’s eyes. As Hiro crouched onto the ground, Rishi came to his aid.

“What’s going on, Hamada?” He asked, “And I thought you stayed calm.”

“No. It’s not Baymax glitching that's making me sad. It’s my brother’s death.” Hiro replied, “H-he used to be a student from SFIT, even helping me make friends there. For you, he would be someone, but for me, he is an important person in my life.”

After Hiro explained, Rishi came to hug him.

“I feel you. That’s when I lost my cousin.” Rishi said, “She died in some kind of an accident.”

Rishi’s cousin was driving back to her home when another car swerved out of control, hitting her car. Although the car that hit her was okay, she wasn’t, as her car landed in the forest with horrible damage. Rishi’s cousin wasn’t able to survive [5]

“Oh my!” Hiro exclaimed, “I’m so sorry!”

“It’s okay.” Rishi replied, “But the way she crashed into the forest, it was very traumatizing.”

“Yeah. More  traumatizing than the fire at SFIT.” Hiro said, “Still, I’m trying my best to preserve most of his old things, ranging from a camera,” He added, taking out a camera and his brother’s hat from the drawer. “...his hat, and most importantly, his scooter. I use them sometimes, even the scooter. In fact, I also preserved his helmet for future use.” He explained, “And whenever I look in the mirror, I feel like I miss him very much.”

Rishi pulled his mentor a hug, crying as they shared a moment.

SFIT Dormitories….

As for Regina and Karmi, who recently finished working on their respective floats for the day, they were already clad with their pajamas, preparing for bed when they heard a knock on the door. 

“I’ll go get it!” Regina exclaimed.

Regina opened the door, revealing Honey Lemon.

“Hey. Just saw how you felt earlier and wanted to talk to you about it.” Honey told her ex-roommate. “Do you guys mind if I enter?”

“Oh sure!”

As Regina led her into the room, Honey was in awe with how it looked. Especially with their bed.

“It looks so beautiful!” She complimented, “Also, isn’t this the picture of you and the others?”

“Don’t think about it.” Karmi told her, “It was taken sometime during the first week.”

Regina and Honey Lemon took a seat on the swinging bench, while Karmi turned on her laptop to work on her fanfiction.

“So, what do you want to tell me?” Regina asked.

“It’s about what I saw earlier and how you felt at that time.” Honey replied, “Look, Gina. I don’t intend to make you sad. I just wanted to help Karmi with what she is struggling with. Also, combining biology and robotics isn’t a bad idea after all.”

“Why?” Regina asked, sheepishly. “I mean, I don’t actually blame you for that icy incident a year back.”

“R-really?” Honey gasped.

“Yes.” Regina replied, “As Gogo once told me, no one is to blame for that event. I mean, you’re so nice to me. But why would you avoid me because of that?”

“Well, it’s because when you were my roommate, you looked like you couldn’t handle my instincts.” Honey replied, taking out a gift box from her bag. “Me snoring at night, the time I brought a baby hippo which caused my fear of hippos, and the time I went mad scientist right in front of your face!” She added, “I just thought that you hated me-”

“Hate you?” Regina was shocked, “Why would I hate you for what you did?”

“Oh. So you don’t actually hate me..” Honey muttered.

“Yes! You shouldn’t even blame yourself for that!” Regina advised.

Big Hero 6 Base….

Rishi leads Hiro to Baymax, who was powered off and charging.

“Oh I’m glad he’s okay!” Hiro said as he looked at his robot.

“At this point, I’m taking full responsibility for that.” Rishi said, “I tried fixing him, but I failed.

“Only me could fix him. Maybe you can hack him so that he could power off.” Hiro then told Rishi, “You have to look after him tomorrow. My shift is in the morning, which means…”

“You’re unavailable.” Rishi completed. “That’s unfortunate..”

“Well, it’s also the same time where you fix your mistake.” Hiro then said to him, “Say. Shall we give it a go?”

San Fransokyo  Institute of Technology….

Morning came and everyone, aside from Hiro, were all gathered in the courtyard, where they were doing final preparations for the floats.

“Students.” Professor Granville called out, “Progress report?”

Aiko, Wasabi, Karmi, Honey  Regina, Gogo and Rishi approached the professor, each of them having news about their assigned floats.

“Great news, Professor!” Aiko, who has her hair tied in a ponytail and is wearing a white shirt and a skirt that resembles all of SFIT’s colours, said, “Me, Fred and the Drama Club are almost finished with our presentation!”

“What is it about?” Rishi asked, curious.

“About the 2001 SFIT shooting, told from a different perspective.” Aiko explained, “And due to the lack of info, we had to improvise.”

“As for the Physics Club’s float, we’re just about ready.” Wasabi said.

“Great news!” Professor Granville was glad.

“The Bio-Club and the Chemistry Club floats are almost ready!” Honey revealed, “Also, working on these was not just a blast, but it helped me reconnect with a special someone.”

That special someone was none other than Regina, who was holding her hand.

“The engineering club is ready for the parade.” Gogo then revealed the status of her assigned float.

“Cool!” Professor Granville chorused, before looking at Rishi. “As for you, how’s the drone show coming along?”

“Well, I’m still practicing. But I’m getting the hang of it.” Rishi replied, nervously. “Also, about the Robotics Club’s float, Hiro just told me that they’re ready, with the light show having been rehearsed.”

“That’s good to hear from you dear students!” The professor said, “Keep moving, cause I know how much effort you used for this parade.”

As everyone gets back to work, Honey, Regina and Karmi briefly go up to each other.

“Guys!” Honey called out for the other two.

“What is it?” Regina asked.

“As a way to celebrate our new friendship,” Honey announced, “..maybe let’s spend lunchtime together!”

“That’s a great idea!” Both girls chorused, jumping around.

“Be careful.” Wasabi warned as Regina nearly hitted the float.

“Sorry!” She replied.

Just then, Baymax starts to rapidly glitch.

“Hold on..” Gogo was the first one to notice. “What is with Baymax acting up..?”

“Agh!” Rishi exclaimed in stress, “I wished Hamada was here!”

Baymax started moving, approaching Honey, Regina and Karmi.

“On a scale of one to toaeeeeeeeeen!" He asked Regina, who was about to fall until Honey saved her by holding her arm. "How would you feeeeeel your pairrrrrr."

“10..” Regina muttered, “That means my pair is better, right?”

“Rishi!” Karmi called out, “Do something with Baymax!”

Rishi then pulls Baymax by his arm and said,

“Maybe a trip to the lab would help.”

“I’ll come!” Aiko offered, “Just to help.”

In the lab, Fred was mastering his mascot stunts when Rishi and Aiko entered with Baymax.

“Hi guys!” He greeted the three, only for his eyes to turn to Baymax, who was slipping from Rishi’s grip. “What’s with Baymax?”

“I don’t know!” Rishi exclaimed in worry, “Hamada has his internship today so he had to appoint me into taking care of Baymax!”

Just then, Professor Granville enters the lab as well.

“How’s your mascot moves,” She asked Fred, “Mr. Fredrickson.”

“Umm..” Fred was about to reply when Baymax started to malfunction.

“Wait- I can fix this!” Rishi exclaimed as he got his tablet, “Just needed to turn him off and..”

However, instead of turning off, Baymax blurts out a certain word.

“OHHH SHHITT!” He chorused as everyone looked. [6]

Everyone heard that and were forced to cover their ears as Baymax said that. Especially Aiko and Rishi, who helped each other cover their ears, judging by their age.

“You students better cover your ears when somebody swears!” Professor Granville exclaimed.

Fred gets his cellphone and tells Rishi,

“I’m calling Hiro!”

Rishi was utterly shocked.

“What? No! Please, don’t!” He exclaimed.

“Too late!” Fred exclaimed as he pressed the call button.

"Hello, someone! Unfortunately, it seems that I am unable to attend to you. Please leave your name and number in this message." Hiro’s voice said.

“Phew..” Rishi was relieved, “That voicemail saved me!”

All of a sudden, Regina and Honey Lemon enter the lab.

“Hey guys!” Honey greeted everyone.

“Just stopped by to get some fireworks.” Regina then said, “It’s for the Chemistry Club’s floats.”

“Ooh!” Aiko replied, curiously. “Can’t wait!”

“Also, I miss heading to the lab almost every single day.” Honey muttered as she went to the part of her lab.

“Don’t mind telling you, but I’m using this part of the lab.” Regina then revealed.

“Oh! It’s okay!” Honey then replied, “If you want, you can use it as your own. We’re just waiting for Professor Granville to allow us to move our stuff out of the lab for the new owner to move in!”

“Really?” Regina asked, “That’s cool!”

“What about you, Rishi?” Honey then asked him, “How are the repairs going?”

“It’s going pretty-” Rishi replied, until he felt his fingers tap on his tablet’s screen. “..well..”

Baymax walks past the group then heads for Rishi’s hoverboard.

“Scanning…” He said, riding the hoverboard.

“MY HOVERBOARD!” Rishi exclaimed, running out of the lab.

As Rishi ran in the hallway, he bumps into Karmi, who was carrying a couple of boxes. Rishi, with the help of Karmi, gets up.

“Dude, are you okay?!” Karmi asked, “And what’s with Baymax riding a hoverboard?”

“It’s all my fault that Baymax got away..” Rishi muttered, until his words trailed off when he heard Hiro’s voice, that said,

“Maybe you can hack him so that he could power off. It's also the same time where you fix your mistake.”

“I’m not giving up!” Rishi vowed, determinedly as he stood up. “What I need to do is to turn him off using my tablet! I can track where he is headed!”

“That could work.” Karmi then said, “And I have an idea on how to execute it!”

Shortly, Karmi gathers Fred, Rishi, Honey Lemon and the Watanabe sisters in Hiro's lab.

“Hiro has given me permission to head to his lab.” Karmi explained how she was able to enter the lab, “That’s why I’m allowed to enter.”

“So what’s the plan?” Rishi asked.

“Well, you, Fred and Aiko will chase the hoverboard.” Karmi then explained, pulling out some of Hiro’s magnets from the drawer and a glove that looked like the gauntlets from Hiro’s armor, but smaller. “Use these to pull Baymax out of the hoverboard.”

“But what about the hoverboard?” Regina then asked.

“I can slow it down!” Rishi then said to her, “I designed it so that I could control it when needed.”

“Me, Regina and Honey Lemon will stay in the lab so that we could slow it down using chemical reactions!” Karmi then added. “Get it?”

“Let’s do this!” Rishi then exclaimed. “For Hamada!”

“For Hamada!” Everyone then cheered as they all did a fist pump.

“Maybe we should’ve used “Hiro” instead of his last name..” Regina muttered.

The Streets….

The plan was in motion, where Rishi’s team were riding on Fred’s limo.

“Open the sunroof!” Fred then told Heathcliff, who was driving.

“Be careful.” Heathcliff then opened the sunroof for the three to look out.

Using his tablet, Rishi manages to slow down the hoverboard while Fred, wearing the glove, uses the mini-magnets to form a rope to help slow down the hoverboard.

“Here we go.” Aiko then muttered, throwing a portal tag in front of the hoverboard while Baymax, having been powered off by Rishi, was pulled by the magnet rope. He was then brought into the limo.

“Success!” Rishi then exclaimed.

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

On the others’ end, Regina and Honey Lemon are just about finished with the formula.

“I think it’s ready!” Regina then said as she and Honey stood up from their chairs.

“I hope it works.” Honey muttered as she inputted the formula on her chem purse, with a green chemball coming out.

Just as the hoverboard enters, Karmi and Regina watched as Honey threw the chemball in the right time, stopping the hoverboard.

“It worked!” Karmi exclaimed, until Hiro entered the lab.

“Hey guys!” He greeted them. “Did I miss something? And what’s with this mess..?”

“It’s a long story.” Karmi gleefully said, “Or more like a robot-in-a-hoverboard chase.”

A few moments later, everyone was gathered in the lab, where Rishi explained what happened.

“So, first of all, I just wanted to apologize about the intrusions that happened today.” He then started, “During some time while I was practicing for the drone show, Baymax suddenly started glitching and rode my hoverboard.” He then continued, “At first, I was about to give up, until I remembered what you told me. So, me and the others raced to stop it, which actually worked out.”

“With help from me.” Karmi then added.

“So that’s what happened. But you did the right thing to do:” Hiro replied, “Fix a mistake you made. Also, I liked how you shutted him down. Don’t worry, I will fix him right after the parade.”

As Hiro said that, he pulled Rishi into a hug as they looked out of the window.

The Streets….

It was already evening, and the parade started. While Fred, in his mascot costume, performed at a separate float, the Chemistry Club’s float had a firework show hosted. Regina was the one who represented the club by wearing a dress made out of foam that came from Honey’s chemballs. [7] As for the Robotics Club, the light show was well performed, and so was the drone show.

“Professor Granville’s right.” Rishi muttered as he tapped on his tablet. “Controlling numerous drones is not a bad idea.”

As for the club’s representative, she was wearing a dress made out of LED lights.

“Mittens?” Hiro asked her, “How are you feeling in this dress?”

“So far so good!” Mittens, who was sporting purple pigtails, said. [8]

The Bio-Club  has an animation of cells developing. Karmi is the representative.

“So that’s how cells develop.” She, who was wearing a dress made out of plants, then said.

Gogo, who was representing the Engineering Club, drives a hovering car on top of the float, representing the technology for the future. As for the Physics Club’s float, the representative, a dark-skinned girl, who was sporting black puffed hair, flies by.

As every float reached the front of SFIT’s campus, Aiko and Fred, having changed to a different costume, joined by other members, did their club presentation as a way to end the parade.

“I’m not that sure about them presenting that in front of everyone..” Professor Granville expressed uncertainty about the performance, “But I guess they made it look like it isn’t real..”

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

While everyone was cleaning up after the parade, Rishi watched as Hiro fixed Baymax in the lab.

“Do the honors, please.” Hiro told Rishi, who then pressed on the button on Baymax’s charging dock.

“Hello. I am Baymax. Your personal healthcare companion.” Baymax then inflated. Rishi hugged him.

As for the others, Regina returns in her civilian outfit.

“Just finished changing up!” She exclaimed.

Just then, Karmi stumbled into a firework, which hadn't been launched.

“Oh!” She then gasped as she looked up into the sky.

The firework was seen from Hiro’s lab, where he, Baymax and Rishi stared into the night sky.

“This is by far the best parade!” Rishi exclaimed, “I can’t wait for the next one in my life.” He then added as he and Hiro looked at each other.

Chapter Text

1. This is how I described episodes 1 to 3 during February 2024.
2. Referenced it from Baymax’s first line in s1e19’s prologue. (CANON SERIES)
3. It is a parody of the Eurovision Song Contest.
4. I tried to not use the word “Drunk”.
5. That was meant to be used for episode 5’s flashback.
6. This is the only time in this arc where a swear word would be used. But still, prepare to cover your ears by the next arc.
7. I used the training scene from the movie as a reference.
8. That’s a cameo because the girl shows resemblance to Amity Blight from The Owl House.

SFIT Dormitories….

"This is so exciting!" Karmi cheered just as she turned on her laptop.

She started writing another story for her Big Hero 6 fanfic. However, unlike the other stories she wrote, this one is related to a personal experience she encountered. Just as she starts writing the first parts of the fanfic, Regina enters the room with Hiro and Baymax in tow.

"Hey, Roomie! Look who bumped into me." She greeted as she pulled Hiro and Baymax into the room and Karmi's view.

"Or bumped into us," Hiro added.

Just as he said that, he placed a box full of stuff on the floor.

"We were on our way to Rishi's dormitory when we bumped into each other.” Hiro explained to Karmi.

“I knew I shouldn’t be using my phone while walking down the hallway!” Regina exclaimed in frustration. She was very guilty about what she did.

“Don’t worry.. I forgave you.” Hiro reassured his friend and calmed her down, “Just like how Honey did.”

All of a sudden, Karmi noticed the box of good Hiro placed near the door.

“Hmm.. I wonder what’s on that box..” Karmi muttered.

"I volunteered to help Aiko bring some deliveries to her and Rishi's dorm." Hiro explained to Karmi, who got up from her chair, “That’s why you saw us carrying boxes hours ago, Regina.”

SFIT Grounds….

Hiro was walking down the garden with Baymax when Regina’s gaze turned towards him.

“Hey Hiro!” Regina greeted him.

“Heya!” Hiro replied back to her.

“What’s with you being at SFIT on a Saturday..?” Regina asked, curious about what Hiro was doing.

“Oh. It’s just me doing best friends stuff.” Hiro answered just as he went through the entrance of SFIT Station, “Friends are there for each other, right?”

“I get it, Hiro.” Regina told the genius, "I guess she ended up clicking "Pick-Up Delivery" instead of having it delivered here..” [1]

“Yes.” Baymax replied.

“That’s why me and Baymax had to pick it up.” Hiro added, “It was very difficult, since I left my scooter inside my hangar for maintenance.”

All of a sudden, Hiro’s eyes turned to Karmi’s laptop, which was on. He started to blush, so he asked,

"What are you working at?"

“Oh. It’s just a slice-of-life chapter for Big Chibi 6!” Karmi replied just as she ran towards her laptop. "A story with all about our personal experiences in it!"

"Wait, you mean..?" Hiro asked. He might have already known what she was going to say.

"Our adventure in the Aquarium!" Both teens chorused, "From yesterday!"

All of a sudden, the teens blushed, especially Karmi, who nervously told Hiro,

"But I will need your help!”

"Ummm. Maybe include me in your story?" Regina slyly asked, "Maybe Honey- No, I meant Chem Girl could appear in the beginning, getting you ready. Hold on, I'll narrate."

Regina's Narration:

"The scene cuts to Karmi's room, where Chem Girl is getting Karmi's hair ready. "So, you and Captain Cutie are going on a trip to the aquarium, right?" She asked as she put a hair clip that looked like a fish, mounted on a small spring. [2]  "Yes! Ever since he saved me, we have gotten together so well, even more, I started to help out on some missions he would go!" Karmi said as she looked in the mirror. "Oh yeah.. And the idea of spending your time with him. You should put it in your fanfic!" Chem Girl said as she finished her hair. "Really wished me and Speed Queen would get the opportunity to hang out together but, everything changes." She added that she felt sad about the lack of time."

"That's a cool start!" Karmi exclaimed.

"Yup." Regina said, "It reminds me of how me and sissy are spending less time together thanks to school.."

"Gosh, you and your sister must have felt so lonely." Hiro said,  "But school..."

"Yeah. And thanks Regina for that plan!" Karmi exclaimed. She made some progress on her story. 

"But I'm thinking of putting in this thing where me and Hiro were talking while we were on our way..” Karmi muttered, “But what did we ride before?"

"Is it a bus?" Baymax asked.

"Yup, correct." Hiro said, He looked at Baymax.

"Hey, now I know where this is going!" Karmi said, before narrating her and Hiro's idea into the story.

Karmi's narration:

"Scene shifts to Captain Cutie and Karmi inside the bus, where they are watching an online tour of the aquarium they would be visiting. "Woah, I have never seen these before. Tall Girl told me there is a large tank which features a lot of fishes, so that's where we are headed!" Karmi said as she paused the video. "But it will take some time and you know it..." She said."

"Wait...." Hiro said as he noticed something, "Is it just me, or is this story going to be robbed for a kissing scene?"

"Isn't it too early for that?" Regina asked, taking a sip from her bottle, "I mean, kissing scenes mainly take place near the end of a show.."

"Well, I might have to think of that.." Karmi responded, "Any other things we did there?"

"Well..." Hiro muttered, "I have one."

Hiro's narration:

"And finally, after what seems to be a longer bus ride from home to the aquarium, Captain Cutie and Karmi are wowed by how the aquarium looks. As the two walked.... "Eeek!" Karmi said, looking at what seems to be a statue of a whale shark. "It's okay, Karmi. It's just a statue." Captain Cutie said. As the two continued their walk, they were amazed with all the fish. Their walk ended when the two reached the big pond. "It's so wonderful seeing all these fishes.." Karmi said. "Well, you know, a date is not a date without a...." Captain Cutie blushed when he said that. "A hug!" Karmi exclaimed, before the two shared a hug."

"And, that's all." Hiro finally finished what he was saying, "Sorry if everyone was robbed for a kissing scene."

"Oof." Regina muttered.

"Okay, what's next.." Karmi said, before she realized something, "Oh wait! Hiro, did we head to the Aquatic Cafe afterwards?"

"I think we did." Hiro said, "Right before we went to the arcade."

"And I have an idea on what happens next!" Karmi said.

Karmi's Narration:

"A few moments after looking at the big pond, the two went to the cafe to eat something for lunch. "So Karmi, what do you like from the menu?" Captain Cutie asked. "Ooh! I want a chocolate-filled croissant, and a strawberry frappe!" Karmi answered. "Okie dokie, I will-" Captain Cutie said, before being interrupted by a waitress. "Oh! Hello there, what would you like to order?" The waitress said. "Oh, I want a chocolate-filled croissant and a strawberry frappe." Karmi answered. "Cool! And what would you like, sir." The waitress asked. "Oh... I might as well have some ube-flavored cupcakes and matcha-flavored boba tea, please." Captain Cutie answered. "Oh goodie! I will make sure to return with your order!" The waitress exclaimed, thus making her leave. "Well, at least I don't have to go to the counter.." Captain Cutie said right before he and Karmi started sharing things about their life. "For me, me and the others have been doing missions all over the city." Captain Cutie said. "If you want to join us, you can be.." "Oh! Lab Lady!" Karmi whispered, making sure no one heard that. "At least I was very quiet. Now, for me, my focus has been turned to attending classes. And during freetime, I would work on stories about you." Karmi said. "Aww. That's so sweet." Captain Cutie said."

"Much sweeter since you're with me." Hiro said.

"Speaking of that, what did you two do after that "Cafe" scene?" Regina asked, nervously.

"Well.." Hiro muttered.

Hiro's Narration:

"Cut to the AquArcade, where Captain Cutie and Karmi were playing a mix of games. "I hope I can get more tickets..." Captain Cutie muttered as he started a game of basketball. "Go Captain Cutie!" Karmi cheered and moments later, Captain Cutie finished the game with no struggles. "I GOT MORE TICKETS!!!!!!!!! THIS IS SO A-" He shouted. "Mazing." He completed it. "I didn't realize that there was a rule saying I couldn't shout here. And now I'm so embarrassed." He cried. Luckily, his ummmm....."

"What's next?" Regina asked.

Hiro was getting too nervous to speak up.

"I think he is saying Girlfriend" Karmi guessed.

"You got it right!" Hiro exclaimed, "Why do I get so nervous when it comes to saying girlfriend?"

"It's okay, Hiro." Regina told him, "Besides, it could be awkward to say either boyfriend or girlfriend in front of your date.."

Just then, Karmi ends up with a shocked expression just as her eyes turn towards the screen. She knew that there was actually a problem. Not just a problem, but a writing problem.

"Guys!" Karmi exclaimed, getting her friends’ attention, "Look!"

As Karmi said that, Hiro and Regina looked at the monitor. Turns out, the story is still blank.

"Geez.." Regina muttered, "We're so focused on sharing ideas, that we forgot about the fic."

"I'm sorry, Karmi." Hiro apologized.

"No need to apologize." Karmi said, "I guess Wasabi was right.. I guess I should take a break from my fanfiction.."

"Okay.." Regina said, sharing a hug with her roommate and Hiro, "Wait a second. Whose phone is that?"

As she said that, Hiro took his phone from his pocket.

"Gosh! It's Chief Cruz!" Hiro exclaimed, "He and I are planning to head to the prison for a certain someone." He explained, "Means me and Baymax has to go."

"Okay Hiro!" Karmi said, "Have a safe trip!"

"Bye!" The roommates exclaimed as Hiro made his leave.

"Now.. What should we do tomorrow?" Regina asked, "Given that tomorrow is a Sunday."

"Maybe we could go to the.." Karmi thought of something but the two actually had the same idea.

"Aquarium!" Both exclaimed, unaware that Hiro heard that, smiling in response. 

However, unbeknownst to him, Obake was using an invisible buddy guard to spy on him.

Obake’s Lair….

"Hiro Hamada..." He muttered, taking a look at the footage he got from the buddy guard, "I wonder who your friends are..."

"Yeah." Trina added, walking towards her father, "Given the fact he has been hanging out with not just the other five, but with 4 new friends who seem to be like their allies."

"If we could recruit them,"Obake responded, giving his daughter a hug, "Then we might be able to know who they are, and what their names are.." He added, looking at a picture of the Mad Jacks. [3]

Chapter Text

SFIT Dormitories….

It was afternoon in the city, and while everyone, including Karmi and Regina, were playing around outdoors, Rishi and Aiko were still in their room, cleaning up their trash.

"Well, I guess this is a lot of trash..." Rishi said as he pulled a door open. A pile of trash came out. 

"We really need to improve our way of cleaning and organizing stuff." He added.

"Yeah.." Aiko muttered, looking at the pile, "Judging by the fact we ordered lots of new stuff from Cartee. It’s for our labs, right?” [1]

“Yeah. But if only we weren’t impatient..” Rishi then replied, in concern, “Cause apparently, we need to wait until the previous owners could empty their labs.”

As the duo continues cleaning the pile of trash, Aiko ends up stumbling into an image. When she looked at it, her blood ran cold.

"Oh my.." She muttered.

"What happened?" Rishi looked at his roommate, who started to tear up, "Are you okay?"

"Kinda..." Aiko replied.

"Who is she?" Rishi asked as he approached his roommate.

The image they were both looking at was an image of a girl sporting dark-tan skin, brown tied hair with a green clip on one side. Even more, she is wearing a white-green striped t-shirt with a black jacket.

"M-Megan.." Aiko muttered. The girl in the image was Megan, “I can’t believe this..”

Rishi gives Aiko a hug.

"She used to be my classmate, and my best friend." Aiko then added.

"Oh." Rishi said as he looked at Aiko in her eyes, "That explains why."

Teardrops fell onto the picture as Aiko continued crying.

"Well, I cannot tell you how Megan and I became enemies.." Aiko told him between cries, “..because it is very private.”

"Well, I'm sorry for what happened between you and Megan." Rishi replied in a comfortable way, "If you need a friend, then I'm right here. Also in your heart."

"Thanks, Rish.." Aiko said, "Speaking of which, maybe I should take a walk."

"To where?" Rishi asked as he pulled himself out of the hug.

"Around San Fransokyo." Aiko replied as she stood up, "I also have a Krei Tech internship at 5:10pm, so I gotta go." [2]

"Oh! Bye Aiko!" Rishi replied before getting to work on cleaning up the pile made up of trash.

The Streets…

On the sidewalk, Aiko was looking at her phone, looking at her to-do list.

"Recalculate all sales." Aiko muttered as she backreaded some of her tasks for the day while walking, "Check-"

All of a sudden, she bumped into a figure. She stood up and who she bumped at shocked her.

"Oh my gosh! Watch where you're going.." The girl, who seems to be Megan, said until she recognized her, "Aiko..."

"Megan!" Aiko exclaimed as she picked up some of Megan's stuff, "I'm sorry! I will try to fix everything!"

"Well, you know what happened before summer!" Megan exclaimed as she took some of her things back from Aiko's hands, "And as always, do not expect me to forgive you!"

"It was a mistake!" Aiko exclaimed as she stopped Megan, "I will do everything to fix it"

"I don't care, Watanabe!" Megan exclaimed as she shoved Aiko from her tracks, "I will never forget what happened before you graduated." She added, "Talking with Belinda. My rival from the Torii Gate Writing Society!" [3]

Just then, Professor Granville approaches the two girls from behind.

"What are you guys doing?" She asked. 

The girls moved out of the way, looking at Professor Granville.

"Professor Granville!" Aiko exclaimed, "I made some real big mistakes with her in the past and she would not forgive me!"

"Forgive you?!" Megan exclaimed, looking at the blondie, "Look, Watanabe. You made the worst one look fine to you. Especially that time you talked to my nemesis." She added. "I will never ever forget that."

"I can relate to you girls." Professor Granville said, "In fact, let me tell you the story of how me and one of my old colleagues made up."

“Great. A long and boring memoir for someone..” Megan muttered as just she, Aiko, and Professor Granville sat on a bench.

“Not just a memoir, but a list of happenings during SFIT’s 2000 shooting, which the Drama Club successfully recreated.”

It was a morning in SFIT in the year 2000, and amongst every class that came to a stop when breaktime hits, Professor Granville’s class has come to an end.

"Okay students. You may all go now." She told her students.

"Professor Granville?" A girl, who sports a brunette ponytail, a pink crop-top and blue pants, was holding her ID using her hand, asked her. "Here is my assignment from last Tuesday. I was not able to do it on time so I spent all breaktime working on this."

Professor Granville took the homework from the girl’s hands and said to her,

"Thanks, Miss Hamada."

“You’re welcome! See you in Afternoon’s class!” Miss Hamada then said, before running off.

After exiting the room, Miss Hamada ran up to two girls, one who is sporting short brown hair with bangs and eyeglasses, and one who looked younger and was sporting brunette space buns with brown bangs.

“Yvie!” She called out.

“Inah! Oh you won’t believe this!” Yvie, the girl with eyeglasses, then responded to her, giving her a hug.

“What is it?” Inah asked, “And Cass, how did you enter the school?”

“I actually told the guards that I was going to give my sister a surprise visit.” Cass, the space buns girl, told her, “Thank you so much Yvie for waiting for me by the entrance.”

“Sorry, Yvie! My sister would be much of a hassle!” Inah then told Yvie, “Also, what happened earlier?”

“That’s what I’ve been telling you about!” Yvie then rambled, “Your sister was paying you a visit!”

“Oh..”

All of a sudden, a boy, who seemed chubby, approached the trio.

“Hello, dear Inah and Yvette..”

Yvie looked at the boy, angrily.

"Yama.." She deadpanned. "Listen. First of all, you did not make at least any contribution to our project."

"Then you stole Maja's ballpen," Inah added.

"..and finally..." An old man approaches Yama from behind. "You stole Lexie’s work!" 

"C-can't you see, Professor Callaghan?" Yama rambled, embarrassed as if . "I was struggling with mine and-"

"NONSENSE! YOU WILL BE SPENDING THIS LUNCH BREAK IN DOING YOUR PROJECT!" Callaghan strictly exclaimed. "Aside from that, I will be pairing you with Belle for this work. Understood?" 

"Y-yes..." Yama muttered, before he was pulled by Callaghan.

"Well, that was interesting.." Cass muttered.

"So Cass?" Inah asked her sister, "What are your plans for this sleepover?"

"Oh! Well, I'am planning on what I'm going to serve at the time."  Cass said. "Speaking of that. Yvie, are you going to be busy after class? I mean, it is okay if you might not be able to attend.."

"Oh! Well, I'm not that busy.." Yvie muttered, “I also wonder if Lexie and Maja are okay with attending the sleepover..”

“Should we talk to them?”

“Good idea.” Inah replied, before she and her group walked off.

On Professor Granville’s end, as she walked, she ended up bumping into Robert. She looked at him and said,

"Professor Callaghan! I hope we are on good terms for now."

"Good terms?" He snarled at her, instead. "Why would we be on good terms?"

"Huh?"

"Well, one time, you spilled coffee on my table. Then you were blasting your playlist while I was working." He told her, "Then here is the thing which broke our friendship: Talking with my step-brother."

After Professor Callaghan left, Professor Granville walked off, crying.

Meanwhile, in SFIT’s green area, a boy, sporting a pink bucket hat, was reading books when he was approached by two other students.

“Teresito Martinez…” The girl, who was sporting short blonde hair, called out. “What kind of book are you reading?”

“My oh my, Florraine!” Another boy, who was sporting a brown fringe haircut, exclaimed. “You know Terry has been through a lot! Especially with his problems with Yamamoto!”

“He has problems with him?” Flor was shocked. “I DIDN’T KNOW THAT! Agh! I wish we were in the same class!”

“Don’t worry, Flor.” Terry reassured his friend, “I mean, Trevor’s right, I DO have issues with Yama!”

Tears suddenly started falling from Terry’s eyes as he explained what was going on.

“You see, Yama urged me to enter the girls’ bathroom just as Inah entered with her buddies.” He explained.

“And?” Trevor asked.

“I tried not to, but Yama pushed me into the girls’ bathroom anyway.” Terry then continued.

“And you got caught?” Flor asked.

“No. Professor Kameela saw that and pulled Yama away from me as I exited the bathroom.” He told his friends, “But not before Maja snapped at him!”

On Inah’s end, she, Cass, and Yvie were meeting up with two other girls, who were talking to each other.

"I cannot believe your work was stolen by this weirdest student who's ever been on campus!" One, who was wearing twin pigtails, said to the other girl. "I'm so sorry Lexie!"

"It's okay, Maja."  Lexie, who was wearing a black braid with white eyeglasses, told her, patting the shoulder. "At least you helped by reporting that incident to Professor Callaghan."

The two girls then noticed Inah’s group approaching.

"Hey girls!" Yvie approached. "We just heard that Yama stole your project."

"And lots of incidents done by him.." Inah added, “He’s such a nuisance, right?”

“Definitely agree.” Lexie replied.

“Remember when he persuaded Terry to enter the girls’ bathroom when you entered?” Maja recalled, “I’m glad Professor Kameela caught that obnoxious looking guy!”

Cass then cleared her throat and said to the two,

"So, as a result, I would be inviting you all to the sleepover!"

Both girls were shocked.

"Wait, really?" Maja asked.

“Yup.” Inah replied, “Glad that my sister has a way to organize an event after a line of negative ones happened.”

"Are you serious?" Lexie muttered in excitement. Cass nodded in response.

On Professor Granville’s end, she ran into the green area when Terry’s group saw her, crying.

"Oh my!" Flor was shocked, "What happened?"

“I think we should talk to her..” Terry suggested.

“Great idea.”

The trio ran to Professor Granville.

“Professor Granville!” The trio exclaimed.

Soon after, Terry gave her a hug, Trevor offered her an extra sandwich, and Flor wiped her tears.

"Professor Granville!" Terry said. "What happened?"

Professor Granville tried not to say anything. However, she knew what to tell her students.

"Me and Mr Callaghan had a problem." She said to them.

"Oh my...." Trevor Said, wrapping the professor in a hug. The other two then followed.

Back on Inah’s end, she and her friends were finished eating when a girl, who was sporting short light brown hair, ran up to them.

“Hey Wendy!” Cass greeted her, pulling out her yo-yo. “Watch this.”

Cass then did some tricks, making Wendy impressed.

“Oh!” Wendy gasped, “Looks like my yo-yo lessors came in handy!”

Wendy’s eyes glanced at Inah and Yvie.

"Hey guys!" Wendy told them. "See y'all at the sleepover!"

"Sure can, Wendy!" Cass exclaimed. 

Just then, the group heard the sounds of students screaming.

"Wait a second, what is that sound?" Inah muttered.

Just then, their eyes glanced at a figure, who was wearing a black hoodie, carrying a gun.

“SFAI students do use paint guns, right?” Cass asked.

“Oh my goodness!” Inah was very worried.

“We better take action!” Maja then said.

“Don’t worry, I will tell the others!” Wendy then told the group, before she ran off.

“Be careful out there! It’s dangerous!” Lexie exclaimed at Wendy, before her eyes turned to Cass.

“Inah, mind if I take Cassidy into a safer place.?” She asked her friend.

“Sure! As for the three of us, RUN!” Inah then replied.

As for Professor Granville and her students, their moment was cut short when Wendy ran up to them.

"Professor Granville!" Wendy told them. "I saw something. It is a guy using guns to attack our precious school!"

The group looked at her, with Trevor mocking her, telling her,

"Oh Wendy. I know you were always imagining about thin-"

His words were interrupted by the sound of a gunshot.

"That is what I was about to talk about." Wendy said.

When she said that, everyone felt their blood running cold. 

Professor Granville and the students ran to the corridors, only to bump into Professor Callaghan, who had his students in tow. Granville’s students even recognized them.

“Yvie!” Trevor exclaimed.

“Maja!” Flor exclaimed.

“Inah!” Terry exclaimed.

“Guys!” Wendy exclaimed.

They were glad that they were safe, and gave each other a hug.

As for the professors..

"Granville.." Callaghan said. "Totally not surprised to encounter you.."

"Please Robert," Professor Granville walked up to him. "I know you would never forgive me for talking with your step-brother but maybe we could fix this.."

"I DON'T CARE!" He shouted.

That shout was very loud, that the shooter got the professors and the students’ attention.

"Professors? Maybe we could help you..." Maja offered.

"Students, leave!" The professors exclaimed in unison.

"We don't want all of you to be affected!" Professor Granville added.

“Please be careful..” Flor then told the professors, before she followed the others in running away.

Soon after, the Professors looked for a place to hide. But the shooter was getting closer, forcing them to hide inside a cabinet.

"That was close!" Professor Granville muttered after she and Professor Callaghan got in.

"So close."  Callaghan said. "Speaking of which, you were right about this Rivalry Week thingy.."

As for the students, they met up with Lexie and Cass, who have exited the campus and were hiding from the shooter.

“Cass!” Inah ran up to her sister.

“I’m glad you two got out!” Terry hugged Cass and Lexie.

“Someone call the cops!” Trevor exclaimed.

Flor took out her phone and dialed 911.

"Police! Police! Save us!" Flor told the police.

"I cannot believe it..." Trevor deadpanned. "A shooting event given to us by SFAI.."

"They usually use paint guns every time they invade." Terry said as he looked at Trevor. "Please tell me it’s Rivalry Week this week.."

"Yes.." Trevor muttered.

“I hope SFAI’s higher-ups are aware of what’s going on..” Yvie muttered.

"Yeah!" Inah said. "Why would they swap their paint guns for a real gun???"

"I or we don't really know." Terry muttered. "But at least we are safe!"

Just then, Cass then gets an idea.

"I would like to invite more for my sleepover but..." She muttered, until Wendy came to her and exclaimed,

"Oh my gosh! You are holding a sleepover?! Count me i-"

"Unfortunately, I don't think sis could invite more.” Inah then replied, “Our house is not that big.”

"Awww." The rest said in unison.

"But it's okay." Wendy said.

"I mean, we are holding ours too."  Terry said. 

"At mine and Flor’s dorm!" Trevor completed.

"Speaking of which.." Flor approached the group as she finished the call with the cops. "I think we have a lot of spots left. Maybe 5 to 8.."

"Change of plans for our sleepover!" Cass exclaimed, "Instead of it being held in our house, why not in Trevor and Flor’s dorm!"

The group clapped.

"Seems a merge of two sleepovers are coming up.." Maja said.

As for the Professors, they were still hiding from the shooter when they had a talk.

"Callaghan." Professor Granville muttered, knowing that he wouldn't forgive her.. "I talked to your step-brother for an assigned project."

"Really?"  Professor Callaghan was shocked. "So it was not a real friendship."

"Well, it was kind of temporary, but when I found out about his secret..." Professor Granville continued. "He was arrested."

"You mean the time he was actually the Guy in Red." Professor Callaghan guessed, to which she agreed. "I could not believe myself..."

Professor Granville looked at him, who was about to tear up at this moment. She felt sorry for him and, despite trying not to, she gave him a hug.

"I was so wrong about you..." He said. "I'm sorry for what I have done."

“It’s okay, Professor Callaghan.” Professor Granville then told him, “Apology accepted.”

In the present, just as Professor Granville’s story came to an end, the two girls looked at each other.

"And at the same time, me and Callaghan hugged each other." Granville said as she finished her story with a sweet. "And at the same time, with the help of the authorities, we got out of the campus.” She added, “And safe to say, our students were safe. The End."

Professor Granville stood up from the bench.

"Oh.. So that is what happened between you and Mr. Callaghan." Aiko said. "The one who Hiro has been talking about?"

"Yes Ms. Aiko." Professor Granville replied, "Now girls, I better be going for my meeting. See you guys!"

"Bye!" Both girls chorused.

As Professor Granville left, Aiko stood up from the bench, preparing to leave.

"Well, I better be going.." Aiko muttered.

However, she felt a hand grab her.

"Aiko?" Megan asked, holding Aiko’s hand, “I have something to tell you.”

Aiko took a seat beside Megan and looked at her.

"What is it?" She asked.

"I just wanted to say sorry for doubting you.." Megan replied, "I felt very guilty for what I did, and I promise to be a better friend from now on."

"Yeah, me too." Aiko replied.

As the girls hugged each other, Megan’s phone rang. Chief Cruz was calling her.

"Oh it's my dad!" Megan said, before taking her phone out. "Dad! You won't believe this!"

"Hi Megan. What is it?" Cruz said, "Me and Hiro are almost in prison."

"Wait a minute?" Aiko asked her friend, "You know Hiro?"

"Yes." Megan responded, "We became friends thanks to my dad and his aunt's friendship." 

"Oh!" Aiko said, "Well, me and Hiro have been friends since the first day of school. Turns out, my roommate is actually being mentored by him."

"Aiko, Hiro wants to talk with you.” Chief Cruz said on his line as he held the phone a little bit close to Hiro, who was driving his scooter.

"Aiko, Krei told me that he would be giving you a little bit of freetime." Hiro told her, "Looks like you do not have to report to Krei Tech."

"Oh! That's cool!" Aiko replied.

"And speaking of which, I thought you and Megan were…” Chief Cruz asked, before forgetting what to say.  "Um..."

"Enemies?" Megan guessed, "Guess what Dad?"

“What is it?”

"Me and Megan sort of ran into each other and after some time, we made up." Aiko said, “I’m thanking Professor Granville for that.”

"That means we are no longer enemies!" Megan gleefully said, "Dad, I will tell you all about it later, meanwhile, I better walk home now."

However, she stopped on her tracks when she looked at Aiko.

"Speaking of walking home..." Megan thought of something. "Is there time for Girlies' Fun Time?"

"Go for it girls!" Cruz said on the other line, "Since today is a Saturday."

"And tomorrow is a Sunday." Hiro added.

"Okay dad! And Hiro, of course.." Megan said, "We better get going!"

San Fransokyo Prison….

“Okay. Have fun!” Chief Cruz ended the call.

At the same time, Hiro and Cruz arrived at the San Fransokyo Prison. After parking, both dismounted the scooter while Hiro readied himself for what was coming. 

"Are you ready for this, Hiro?" Cruz asked as he looked at Hiro.

"Ready as I'll ever be." Hiro answered, and the two entered the building.

Chapter Text

SFIT Dormitories….

It is a lovely Sunday in San Fransokyo, which means that there are lots of people doing their thing. Even a few friends decided to play their favorite games. Hence, Hiro, Rishi, Aiko, Fred, and Karmi playing their favorite video game.

"I got it!" Karmi cheered on her end. She was playing the game using her laptop from her and Regina’s dorm.

Big Hero 6 Base….

"Captain Genius, your turn!"

"Got it, Lab Lady!" Hiro said, while playing the game on his end.

Hiro was inside his hangar. He was seated on his parked scooter. Baymax on the other hand, was inside his charger.

Fredrickson Manor….

"Fred is on his way, into the night to strike the enemies with some fire!" Fred exclaimed on his end.

Fred was laying on his bed, with Heathcliff by his side.

SFIT Dormitories….

"Nice one guys!" Rishi exclaimed to the others.

He and Aiko were playing the game from their dorm room. And despite Rishi’s age, he and Aiko managed to connect to the group chat using the latter’s account. Moreover, Aiko had her hair down and was wearing a gray sando with a purple crop-top on it. 

"Target locked," Aiko said as she officially aimed her cursor at a specific button, "Ready up?"

"Born ready.." Fred replied, determinedly.

Aiko pressed the "X" button on her keyboard, and in a matter of time, they all won the game.

"Yes yes yes yes yes!" Rishi cheered, jumping from his gaming chair with Aiko staring at him, "I'm the pro and we've got the power!"

"We are all pros, Rishi, '' Hiro said before he realized something, "Speaking of that, it seems we are in different classes, since I’m a year ahead of you."

Rishi frowned at the announcement. 

"Despite this, we are still together in almost every free time," Karmi said.

All of a sudden, a sound of the bathroom door was heard. It got Karmi’s attention.

"Wait a moment guys!" The biology major turned off her camera and approached her roommate, "Regina? Where are you going?"

Turns out, Regina was actually going somewhere. Even more, she was wearing a denim jacket.

"Oh, I'm going to the Bonsai Alleyways," Regina replies, concerning Karmi and the others. 

They could still hear the conversation between the roommates. As they overheard that, their happy faces turned into concern.

As soon as Regina left, Karmi went back to her desk and turned her camera back on. 

"Well, we're worried," Aiko said, fearing for her sister.

------------------------------------------------------------

The Streets….

"Commuting to the base is super hard!" Rishi said as he and Aiko started walking to the base. 

“I agree, right?” Aiko added.

They just got off the Yellow Line and had to walk to the base, which is located farther away from the station.

"Tell me about the traffic in front of the Red Line.."

"Yeah..." Aiko said, but she was very concerned, "My sister."

"I dunno. What's with Regina nowadays?" Rishi asked, "I guess she is not her real self.."

"No! I'm very worried!" Aiko exclaimed as she cried, "Why is my sister going there? Did you know that the Bonsai Alleyways are known as the Good Luck Alley? I can't take it anymore."

Seeing this, Rishi went near and comforted her as they walked. 

"Don't worry, you can overcome it.” He told her, “Cause you know, your roommate is always here for you, just like right now."

Aiko finally stood up and stopped crying and gave him a hug.

"I, guess..." She replied, "Thank you for being here for me."

"It's my pleasure, now let's head for the base." Rishi then said, before the two roommates continued their walk.

Throughout the walk, Rishi looked at Aiko and whispered to her, 

"Hiro told me that you would come along to help me find out what my sissy is doing!"

"Aww, Rishi!" Aiko exclaimed. Rishi is indeed a cheerful person when it comes to problems. "You always have a cheerful mood whenever something bad happens."

Big Hero 6 Base….

Inside his hangar, Hiro was looking for something. The scooter’s engine compartment was open, with a toolbox on top of the seat. As for Hiro himself, he was looking through the drawer. It was very messy.

"Where is it, where is it?" Hiro muttered, "I know it should be around here somewhere..."

"Hiro, do you want me to add a scooter battery to your Cartee cart?" Baymax asked while watching Hiro struggle to find the battery.

"No." Hiro responded just as he closed the cabinet, "If Aunt Cass did not tell me about doing the groceries last week, then I would've not bought the battery."

Just then, the TV screen of the hangar turned on.

"Hiro! My main man!" Fred popped up on the TV screen and said, "What's up."

"Regina... She's headed for the Good Luck Alley." Hiro said, "And I need to replace my scooter's battery."

At the same time, another screen on top of the door powered up. It was an Ai, that asked him,

"Uh, Hiro? Rishi, and Aiko have arrived, should I open the hangar doors?" 

“Oh sure, HangarMax.” Hiro replied to the AI.

In response, the AI automatically opened the door, revealing Rishi and Aiko.

"Hello to the both of you." The AI greeted them.

At the same time, the two teens entered the hangar, curious about the voice, so Rishi asked,

"Hiro, what's that voice?"

”It looks so nice here." Aiko complimented Hiro about the hangar’s design.

"Hello! I'm-" The voice was about to say something, when he was suddenly interrupted by Hiro, who told his friends,

"HangarMax. Aiko, Rishi, this is HangarMax! The artificial intelligence that looks after the hangar."

The two friends looked at the AI, wowed by how it looked.

"Wow! What a cool mod!" Aiko exclaimed, jumping in excitement, "Nice to meet you HM. Should I call you that?"

"I am welcome to be called HM and some other nicknames," HangarMax said as he appreciated her excitement.

"You literally have the best ride here, huh Hamada?" Rishi said to the genius.

His attention was then turned to the scooter.

"Speaking of which, when can I get a free ride from you?" Rishi asked Hiro.

"Maybe sooner or later." Hiro responded as he opened another cabinet, "I need to find my scooter's battery before going to the Good Luck Alley-"

Aiko started helping him as he said that, and finally, opened one of the drawers in shock.

"Found it!" She exclaimed. She found the lost battery, "Maybe we should help each other organize our stuff so it won't get lost...."

"Gee, thanks.." Hiro responded as he took the battery from Aiko's hands, "Also, you are right about this "Being organized" thing. Like, so right.."

"Well, you're welcome!" Aiko gleefully replied.

All of a sudden, Hiro noticed something about his friend. So he asked,

"Speaking of which, I have a question.."

"Oh yeah, what is it?" Aiko responded, waiting patiently for the question.

"I know you liked my scooter, but why do you hate riding on it or any type of vehicle that features something mechanical?" Hiro asked her while changing the battery of his scooter.

"Oh, it is because of a certain scenario, that resulted in an accident," Aiko replied, "Ever since that day, I feared riding on two-wheeled vehicles." Aiko said, "And even though I liked your scooter, I couldn't bring myself to even ride it!"

"Oh." Hiro gasped.

"I'm sorry." Aiko said.

"It's okay, I understand." Hiro responded with a smile. 

He understood his best friend’s fear.

"And the worst of all, that was the time after our parents passed away." She muttered

"Oh my! I did not expect that to happen to the both of you!" HM said and at the same time, tried cheering her up, "I'm sorry for the hard times you got through."

"Yeah, it reminded me of how Tadashi passed," Hiro said as he closed the engine compartment then sat on the scooter, and put the key to the ignition, "Except it is not an illness but a fire, in SFIT."

"So sorry!" Rishi exclaimed, thus giving both of his friends a hug.

"Guys, I will need you to cover your eyes, I will need to check if the engine is working fine," Hiro told his friends.

"Okie dokie." The duo replied and stood aside.

Hiro was preparing to start his scooter’s engine up right after a battery change.

"One, two.." Hiro counted down, preparing to start its engine.

He then squeezed the brakes and pressed the start button. A smooth rumble was heard, meaning the new battery worked. [1]

"It worked!" Aiko exclaimed and cheered.

"Great comeback!" Rishi exclaimed, to which he thought of something, "And since you and Aiko would spy on Regina, maybe I will look after Baymax, again.."

"Yes," Hiro said, before telling them his plan, "Aiko and I will go after Regina. Aiko, you may not ride with me, but-"

"I know, Hiro." Aiko stood beside him, "But I'm sure we will meet in the alleys, after all, we will stay together, right?"

Good Luck Alley….

Elsewhere, the alley is booked with a lot of criminals living there. Aside from them is Regina, who is holding her cellphone while clinging to her backpack.

"Leiko.." She muttered, walking through the alley, "Show yourself.."

Yama’s Lair….

While Regina was walking down the alley, Yama was having a chat with his accomplices.

"Those teenagers these days.." Yama said to his goons, "They are so smart, just like Zero!"

"Totally agreeing with you..." His assistant replied, "That guy looked too young."

The group of criminals were reviewing footage of Rishi bumping into some of their team from their security cameras.

"If it's a younger male, then you know it." Yama said as he walked up to her, "Nowadays, they look more intelligent than a man, or someone in their 30s."

"I bet he must be friends with the "Zero" you are talking about.." The assistant said, before chugging on a glass of what seems to be, juice. [2]

As the two were having a conversation, a muscular guy with a long ponytail and sporting a blue vest, white t-shirt, and beige shorts, approached them.

"Mr, Yama, Belle." The guy told them, "I think I saw a blondie walking in the alley right now!"

"Wait." Belle said, stood up and took a glimpse of her through the window, "Let me see."

Speaking of Regina, she was walking in the alley, cuddling her backpack as she passed by the shops there. She stopped in her tracks and took out her phone.

"A note to myself:" She said as she recorded a voice on her phone, "It is okay for you to have little to no intel about your old classmate, Gina."

Before continuing to her tracks, she turned off her cellphone. She did not turn off her voice recorder, presumably to record everything she heard. Unbeknownst to her, Aiko, who was hiding behind one of the buildings, was spying on her.

"Hiro." She said on her earbud, "I think she is looking for... Ahh!"

San Fransokyo Streets….

"Aiko-" Hiro said on the other line, before the call was cut, "I gotta get there fast!"

"Shucks!" Megan said while on video call. 

Turns out, Megan decided to help out on the investigation, albeit not physically.

"Better stay quiet to be safe.." She added.

"I agree." Hiro replied, "In fact, I have been to the good luck alley several times, especially in high school before going to SFIT."

"Oh. At least you know how to get out of the alley," Megan said, before typing several keys from her keyboard, “..or your way around there..”

Using her laptop, she did a couple of research about the alley, notably, opening an article from the search results.

"Speaking of that, it's real name was actually the Bonsai Alleyways. Its entrance is within Judah Street, Ginza Street, and Clarendon Avenue." Megan described the alley, in her own words, much to Hiro’s shock.

“That’s a lot of information..” Hiro muttered, “Aside from the alley being so big. But not bigger than Muirahara Woods..”

"I hope Aiko is safe there. She must've been heard by the people living there." Megan said, concerned about her friend.

Good Luck Alley….

Speaking of Aiko, she was forced to end the call when she bumped into one of Yama's goons. To make things worse, it turns out, Belle heard it.

"Hey!" She said, "That voice comes from one of Zero's friends!"

"Oh really?" Yama gasped, before gesturing to his goons to get her, "I'm coming for her."

"I'm coming!" Belle explained, joining Yama and his crew.

Meanwhile, as she is surrounded by half of Yama's crew, Aiko desperately tries to find her way out. However, as all efforts seem to have failed, she hears a honk of a horn.

"Hiro!" Aiko exclaimed, "Nice timing!"

As she got a helmet from Hiro, despite being reluctant at first, she does not hesitate to get on. As the two drove, they were blocked by Yama and Belle.

"Nowhere to go, Zero!" Yama exclaimed.

As Yama said that, Hiro glanced at what seemed to be a ramp.

"Aiko, I need you to hold on." Hiro said, revving the engine of the scooter.

"We got you now." Belle said as she was about to take something out of the pocket.

"Not really.." He muttered as he went backwards. He then drives to the ramp, sending the scooter flying before making a safe landing.

"Nice driving!" Aiko exclaimed as Hiro made a left turn to one of the exits, "Speaking of that, maybe I should apologize for being so doubtful. I thought I could fall off any moment."

"There's no need to apologize." Hiro smirked.

On Yama and Belle's end, there was surprise on how the two teens escaped. Belle was also frustrated that she did not even use the shuriken she took out from her pocket.

"Not surprised at all.." Belle said, putting the shuriken back in her pocket, "These kids are way smarter than the both of us."

Meanwhile, as Regina was walking around, she ends up bumping into Mr. Yama

"Oh! Mister, I'm so sorry!" She apologized, "Gotta run-"

However, Belle recognized her, thanks to her voice.

"Ginarie!" She greeted, before giving her a hug, "Nice to see you again after a couple of years, I think.."

"S-same to you." Regina said, shyly, "But I'm not here for bot-fighting. I was just trying to find someone named Leiko Suzuki."

As Regina said that, Mr. Yama came up to her.

"I think I may know some details about her." He said, "Come with us."

SFIT Dormitories….

Time passed by and it is almost evening and Karmi is still reading a different fanfiction. Despite this, she still feels worried about her roommate going to the Good Luck Alley by herself.

"Ugh! I still cannot get over the fact my roommate is going to the alleys alone!" She exclaimed, "Who knows what will happen to her-"

Her words were interrupted when she heard a knock on the door. She opens it and sees her boyfriend, Hiro, and her roommate's sister, Aiko. Baymax and Rishi were also with them.

"Karmi, we have to talk about my sister." Aiko said.

"Sure. How is she?" Karmi asked as she led her friends into her room, "I hope she is okay. I'm getting super duper worried about her right now."

"Well, I went there first and I overheard her." Aiko explained, "She seems to be looking for someone."

"Not to mention, she and I were on a call." Hiro added, "But got cut off when she ended up getting in trouble thanks to Yama."

"Luckily, Hiro took me on his scooter and I guess you're right Karmi," Aiko said, "I guess riding two-wheeled vehicles as a passenger is not bad at all, unlike driving one." She added.

"Speaking of that, I should do some research on the Good Luck Alley's history." Karmi said,

"I was about to tell you..." Hiro muttered. 

Finally, Hiro’s attention was turned to Aiko, who was very concerned, with Rishi consoling her.

"Aiko, we need to talk about how we are getting worried about your sister." Hiro told her.

"I know." Aiko muttered, "I mean, I told her yesterday to not set foot in the Good Luck Alley. But she didn't listen...."

As she said that, she burst into tears.

"Don't worry, roomie!" Rishi said, giving his roommate a hug, "Let's just hope your sister gets back home before tomorrow."

"We are also feeling the same thing as you." Hiro said before Karmi interrupted them.

"Guys! I found something that you and the others must see." She said, "I'll send it to you right away." She added, to which Hiro received the video.

The three other friends watched the video, in curiosity.

"Well, that is one big mystery to solve." Rishi muttered.

"Looks like we will have to tell Megan and her dad about this.." Hiro muttered, “I mean, she also did some research on the alley.”

Big Hero 6 Base….

Moments later, Hiro, Rishi and Aiko arrived at the hangar riding the former's scooter and with Baymax on his charging case. After parking it in Hiro's hangar, the three made their way to the conference room where the others, including the Cruzes, are waiting.

"I'm glad you invited us here." Megan said, "I mean, I have seen the conference room. Am I right?"

"Yes." Baymax

"And Chief Cruz," Wasabi greeted the chief, "Welcome to our conference room!"

As Wasabi said that, Chief Cruz walked around the room, in shock.

"It is so futuristic..." Chief Cruz muttered. "I wonder who designed this base.."

"My dad's friend Roddy designed and built it." Fred explained, "Now, let's see what this video is all about." He said as Hiro and Baymax took their seats.

"Speaking of this base," Chief Cruz said, "Are there any more chairs for.."

"Erm, us.." Aiko muttered, before a door opened to reveal four more seats, "Oh. Thanks."

"You're welcome!" Wasabi said, "Besides, it's my idea for the base to have some backup seats. Just in case you guys would visit."

"Thanks!" Rishi exclaimed as he and the other allies took a seat.

As the video was playing, Chief Cruz realized something.

"I wonder how they took the video in the alley." He wondered, "Nowadays, it is almost impossible since anyone who visits here would always get lost."

"I agree. My brother was the one who brought me out of bot-fights and into SFIT." Hiro said.

"You did bot-fighting?" Rishi asked, "I was planning to do that when I get older but later decided against it.." He muttered.

"Actually. It is best NOT to go to the alley at all." Gogo said, "I wonder who Regina is looking for.."

"Guys! Look!" Honey exclaimed, shocking the team.

Hiro paused the video in one certain part of it. It mentioned Regina, and a familiar face.

"Is that my sis?!" Aiko gasped in shock, "And is that the guy me and Hiro ran into earlier??"

"I think... His name is Mr. Yama." Hiro said, "And oh my gosh..."

"They were friends?" Megan said, "Please don't tell me she did bot-fighting.."

"She did." Aiko deadpanned, much to Megan’s dismay, "Unfortunately." 

After the meeting, Hiro, Rishi, and Aiko were walking towards Hiro’s Hangar to head home.

"So, do you guys have some pets to bring for tomorrow." Rishi asked as he, Aiko and Hiro entered the hangar, "Not to mention tomorrow is "Bring Your Pets Day" at SFIT." [3]

"Well, good news, Aunt Cass allowed me to bring Mochi to school." Hiro said, before getting onto the scooter then starting it up, "Given the fact I have to look after him throughout the day."

"Well, me and sissy planned to bring our dog." Aiko said. "His name is DanDan and he sounds very cute!"

Hiro smiled at Aiko. As for Rishi, his face turned gloomy.

"I hate to say this but.." Rishi muttered, "I don't have a pet.." He said, much to his friends' shock, "Well, I have a bunny rabbit but he is with my parents. But they live farther away from San Fransokyo"

"Oh no... It's okay." Aiko said, "I might have to share my pet with you if ever sissy does not come home before the day ends."

"Don't worry much, roomie." Rishi said as he got on the scooter, "Besides, there might be a chance that she would arrive by morning."

Good Luck Alley….

Speaking of Regina, she was drinking some tea when Belle entered with a plate of biscuits in her hand.

"So, how's the tea?" Belle asked as she took a seat on the couch just beside Regina right after placing the plate on the table.

"It tasted great." Regina said, "Thanks for inviting me here."

"You're welcome, Ginarie." Belle responded as Yama came into the room with a picture on his hand.

"Good news, I found this picture of your friends. But we don't know about her whereabouts." The boss told her.

"We're sorry." Belle apologized.

"It's okay." Regina answered, "We will try again tomorrow. Good night!"

"Good night, Ginarie!" Belle said to her, before she left the room with Yama.

As Yama and Belle left the room, they met up with some of the former's men.

"It is a really good idea for us to allow her to sleep." Yama said, "When she is surely past asleep, we will just carry her to the cellar." He added, with everyone else giving him a thumbs up.

"Drink?" Belle asked.

"Sure." Yama said.

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

As the night faded into morning, Hiro arrived at SFIT on his scooter, with his cat Mochi in tow. After parking, he gets Baymax out of his charging case.

"Whoa-" Hiro said as he tried to carry the cat, "It has been months since I last carried you!" He exclaimed, "Let's go, Baymax."

As he and the robot walk towards the campus, they eventually meet up with his friends. But his excited expression turns into a worried one as a particular someone is absent.

"Hey guys-" Hiro greeted, only to realize that someone was missing, "Has Regina come home yet?"

"Sadly no." Karmi answered, "She has been missing for a day since going straight through the alley." She explained. "And also, meet my little bunny, Toki!"

"He's so cute." Baymax complimented the bunny.

As for Hiro, he started getting concerned for his friend.

"Baymax, scan for Regina." He instructed. He and his friends were getting worried.

Good Luck Alley….

Speaking of Regina, she wakes up from her sleep. That was the time she knew something was different.

"Huh.." She muttered, “Where am I?”

She could also hear the voices of Mr. Yama, Belle and the former's goons. Reluctant, she decides to eavesdrop on the conversation.

"That's one, a few more to go." One of the goons said.

San Fransokyo Police Department….

"Don't worry about her." Chief Cruz said. He was actually on a call,  "She might've returned to her dorm a few hours ago.."

Torii Gate High School…. [4]

"I just hope she is safe...." Megan muttered. "With that, I have to go because my class is about to start. Bye!"

San Fransokyo Police Department….

"Bye Megan. See you later!" Chief Cruz said as he ended the call.

As he was about to get a donut from a box of donuts, his phone rang again. This time, it was Hiro.

"So Hiro," He said, "..how is your friend? Has she gotten home yet?"

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

"No. She hasn't returned to her dorm." Hiro said on the other line, surrounded by his other friends.

"And we were meant to share pets!" Aiko, who had her hair tied in pigtails and was wearing a dark grey shirt, a pink short-sleeve jacket, and a dark grey skirt, exclaimed, "We need help finding her."

"Maybe some intel from the GLA guys will do." Karmi said.

San Fransokyo Police Department….

"Oh no... We might not be able to find her, but we will search for her whereabouts so don't worry." Chief Cruz told them, "Just go to your classes or you might be late."

"I understand. Call us after class." Hiro replied before ending the call.

"Flynn!" Chief Cruz exclaimed to one of the police officers, "Get the entire police force. One of Big Hero 6's friends has gone missing." 

“Last seen where?” Flynn asked.

"She was last seen in Good Luck Alley." Chief Cruz replied to her.

Good Luck Alley….

"Oh Ginarie, oh Ginarie..." Belle muttered as she and one of Yama's men approached Regina, "You did not expect yourself to be here, huh..."

"Just tell me where I'm at!" Regina exclaimed.

"Well, you see. When you said Leiko was your friend, we planned to capture her, you, and her other friends." Belle explained, "That is why you are here. In this nice cozy little cellar..." She muttered, laughing in silence much to Regina's dismay.

"J-just let me out!" Regina cried, "Me and sissy have plans for today-"

All of a sudden, Yama entered the cellar and pushed Regina against the wall.

"There is no way out!" He shouted at her.

After Yama’s team left the room and went downstairs, Regina started looking around the cellar. She even took her jacket off considering the fact it will be so hot here. Some time passed and it is afternoon, and she hasn't found an exit.

"It's no use.." She muttered, sitting on the floor, "I should've listened to my friends."

As she was feeling helpless and about to give up, voices started popping up into her head.

“Regina. No matter how things are getting harder, you should never give up! You are the best and nothing is going to change it. No matter what, your parents are very proud of you.”

After that realization, she stood up and started inspecting the cellar. While inspecting the cellar, she notices something unusual in some parts of the wall. It turns out, there is a hole in the wall, covered in sticky paper. The size of it is perfect for Regina to go through.

"Don't worry, sister and friends." She muttered, "I'm coming for you." She added before going through the hole.

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

Time has already passed, and after all classes ended, Hiro and his friends met up with Fred, Wasabi and Professor Granville.

"Students. Care to explain what happened." Granville said.

"Well, it was yesterday and we heard Regina planning to go to the Good Luck Alley." Karmi started explaining what happened the previous day.

"Since then, she hasn't even returned back to her dorm." Hiro added.

"I just miss my sister!" Aiko cried, "I just hope she is safe and alive and..."

"I know how you feel.." Wasabi muttered.

"Will she ever be found?" Fred asked in concern.

As all hope for Regina to be found seems lost, Aiko receives a phone call from Megan.

"It's Megan!" She said as she answered the call, "Meggie! Has your dad found Regina?"

"She has not been found...." Megan told her, "But they found her bag, with her cellphone inside!"

"Cool! At least we know where she is." Karmi said.

"But her cell phone is locked with a pattern." Megan said. "If only we had her fingerprints-"

"She sent me the pattern before!" Aiko exclaimed, much to the group's relief, "And as far as I know, I think my fingerprints were also added." She added, "Just in case something happens."

"I'm in front of the entrance in SFIT." Megan said, "Which is where I will be waiting."

"Okay Megan!" Hiro said as Aiko ended the call, "Baymax, I need you to take Mochi home."

"Affirmative. I will take him home with care." Baymax said as he took the cat, who was on his pet carrier, and made his exit.

"Now that we have some information on where Regina went, let's go!" Rishi said.

Good Luck Alley….

Time passed in a blur and a blue car slowed to a stop in front of the alley, with Granville driving it with Wasabi on the passenger seat and Fred, Rishi and Karmi on the backseat. At the same time, Hiro arrived on his scooter with Megan and Aiko on his back.

"Miss Watanabe." Detective Kato told her, "Here is your sister's phone."

"Thanks sir." Aiko said as she took the cellphone from his hands, unlocking it with her finger, "Now that I have my sister's phone, let's check the voice memo. When I was spying on her yesterday, she was using it as her own diary.”

“And how did you know?” Megan asked.

“I know she does this all the time." She explained, before playing one of the latest voice recordings.

“This one must be from yesterday!” Megan exclaimed.

"Hiro, tell Rishi that I sent him a file using sissy's account." Aiko told him.

In response, Hiro took out his cellphone and called his protege.

"Rish. Aiko used Regina's account to send something to you." He told him, "That voice memo is really long so we need you to cut it."

"Okay Hamada." Rishi said.

Using his tablet, he downloaded the memo and edited it, splitting it into parts. Moments later, he then sends it to Aiko, 

"Roomie, I just sent you something on your phone." He told her.

"I see it." Aiko said as she took her phone from the pocket, 

“Now, let’s see who is responsible for taking your sister captive, Aiko..” Megan said, before Aiko played one of the parts in the recording.

However, one of the voices they could hear in the recording turned their expression into shock.

"And the person who took your sister is...." Hiro muttered as the voice recording kept playing, "Not just one, but a group of criminals.”

“Yeah..” Aiko muttered, “A group of general scumbags led by…”

"Yama!" The three exclaimed.

After lots of worrying, the group finally, or might’ve found who was responsible for Regina’s capture.

"Let's go! We have a friend to save." Megan announced.

On Regina's end, she finally exited the cellar using a vent.

"That long walk was worth it." She muttered, but her blood ran cold when...

"Watanabe..." Belle greeted her, "So unexpecting to see you out of the cellar." She said, "Let's make this quick." She said as she took out her shuriken and was about to strike it on Regina. However, instead of hitting her, it hit the wall instead.

"You want to make this quick?" Regina said as she dodged the shuriken Belle threw, "Then I know how to make this quick."

At the same time, as Hiro and his team were about to arrive at the complex, he was ultimately forced to stop his scooter as Yama exited from one of the buildings. He blocked Hiro’s way..

"Oh no.." Hiro muttered.

"A screwdriver." Megan said.

"Please Mr. Yama!" Aiko cried, "Please don't take my best friend's scooter apart and let my sister out!"

"Not to mention that we already know what happened to her."

Much to everyone’s surprise, Chief Cruz was hiding behind one of the walls. He went up to Yama and electrocuted him using his taser.

"Alfredo Yama, you are under arrest!" He told him.

"Fine you got me.." Mr. Yama deadpanned.

As for Aiko, she got off the scooter and ran towards the building.

"The door's locked!" She said, trying to push and pull the door open.

At the same time, Fred and Karmi ran up to one of the windows of the same building.

"Guys, guys, guys!" Fred called the rest of the group using his phone, "Me and Karmi just found a clear window!"

"Wait, is that..." Karmi said, noticing something on the window and recognizing it.

Turns out, the two can clearly see Regina fighting Belle while dodging every shuriken the latter throws at her.

"Gotta take a picture!" Karmi exclaimed, taking out her phone.

On Rishi's end, he, Wasabi and Granville find an unlocked door of the same building.

"Guys, we just discovered an unlocked door." Rishi exclaimed.

As for Hiro, Aiko and Megan, they walked towards the window while Chief Cruz stayed at the entrance.

"OH MY GOSH! SISSY! YOU GO GIRL!" Aiko cheered as Regina attempted to fight back.

Just as Regina was feeling tired, she was forced to hide under the table.

"Come on Regina, think!" She thought to herself until her eyes landed on the stovetop, she looked at it and discovered that it was actually the tea Belle gave her the previous day. 

Getting out of her hiding spot, Regina takes a cup of tea but she was not trying to drink it.

"This ends now!" Belle exclaimed as she charged herself towards Regina.

"Not so fast, nitwit!" Regina said as she splashed the tea towards Belle, burning her.

Regina watches as Belle runs up to the stove. The burns Belle was experiencing were so painful, that she accidentally touched the hot pot, causing it to spill to her body. She was left shouting in pain.

"Now's my chance!" Regina said as she made her way to the unlocked door.

As she went through the door, Regina was greeted with her friends waiting, including Aiko, who exclaimed,

"SISTERRRRRRR!!!!! I MISSED YOU!!!"

Aiko ran towards her sister and gave her a hug.

As the sisters cried, the police entered the building to arrest Belle, who ended up with burns all over her body thanks to the tea Regina threw at her.

"Guys. we have lots to talk about later." Regina said, "I'm so tired and hungry after my ordeal in that cellar of mine."

"And I know exactly where to eat." Hiro said.

Lucky Cat Cafe….

As the afternoon turned into evening, the heroes and their allies had their dinner together.

"Here you go, Mochi." Hiro said as he gave a bit of his food to Mochi, who gave him a "Meow".

"I'm impressed." Aunt Cass told Hiro as she placed the group's order on the table, "Cause you took care of Mochi for today." She added, "And you're right, maybe I should allow you and Baymax to take care of him too."

"It's okay Aunt Cass." Hiro said, "Other than that, thanks for the food you gave us."

"Yeah, especially for Regina." Gogo said, "She got locked inside a cellar while in the Good Luck Alley."

"That explains why the alley is the worst place to be at." Rishi said.

"Speaking of that, I have something to tell you guys." Regina said.

As she said that, everyone has their attention on her.

"I'm sorry for not listening to you. You guys were actually right, the Good Luck Alley is the most dangerous place to be at. And from now on, I will never ever set foot there again." She told everyone.

"It's okay. We all understand now." Aiko said.

“Also, speaking of that, how did you guys find out that I was being held captive by Yama?” Regina reluctantly asked her friends.

“It’s a long story.” Hiro replied.

“With the help of your sister’s fingerprints.” Karmi added.

“And not to mention that voice memo you have.” Fred added.

Regina looked at her phone and opened the voice recorder app.

“Wow. I’m glad it continued recording,” Regina said, “..even though Yama and Belle snuck me to the cellar without waking me up.”

Just then, Honey Lemon entered the cafe, holding a notebook.

“Hey guys! I did some research about the tea Regina drank, which made her sleep.” She told the team as she took a seat, “It was green tea.”

“Green tea.. I like that type of tea.” Regina said, “So refreshing.”

“No Regina. It’s not just a regular green tea,” Honey muttered, “..but a green tea with drugs in it.”

“Oh my gosh..” Gogo muttered.

“No wonder you fell asleep when Yama and his team carried you into that cellar..” Wasabi muttered in shock.

“Hey! At least I’m alright. That matters.” Regina said.

Just then, Honey thought of something.

“After this, we need a place to recharge.” She told the team.

“Oh! Has anyone heard of Sutro Onsens?" Megan asked the team.

"Sutro Onsens? You mean the place where you can chill in the hot tubs?" Rishi asked, "Cause why would I not go there? It is the best place to chill after a very long week."

“It has been on my wishlist since returning to San Fransokyo.” Karmi added.

The group spent time talking just as the stars shone in the sky.

Chapter Text

Fredrickson Manor….

Inside his room, Fred, alongside Rishi and Aiko, were all seated on the couch, all wearing their pajamas. The coffee table was filled with popcorn and drinks. They were watching TV when..

"Hello everyone!" The Jacks said in unison before they started the next episode of their show, "Bright Lights, Loud Noises". [1]

Why don't you come with us

Into our brightest vibes

"Were dancing for days with good vibes and lights" Rishi sang the lines of the theme song, "We really enjoy this!"

“Couldn’t agree more, Rish.” Fred replied.

"Yeah! At least we are not tinkering our hands onto a gaming console!" Aiko cheered as the theme song went on. "Do do do do do do do"

Do (8x)

Divin when your jumpin’

Like the excitement

When you get excited

"Divin and jumpin’ we should never try to stop this" The two sang in unison when...

"GUYSSSSSS!" Fred interrupted the two, "Guess what?"

“Ha?”

"You literally interrupted the moment Greg is going to say the word "Vibe" and now we missed it." Rishi told him.

“I found some shocking news!” Fred exclaimed to the two, prompting them to look at his cellphone.

"The executive producer of Bright Lights, Loud Noises announced an audition to replace the Mad Jacks as host!" Aiko read the title of the article.

However, it was already obvious to them that the news was fake, since it didn’t provide a complete source.

"Well actually, we don't trust that so we shall continue." Aiko told Fred, before turning back to the TV screen.

"Guys.. But I have been using it as my only source of news.." Fred muttered.

"Well, me and my sister used to trust that but there were no sources included!" Aiko said.

"So that means it's fake.." Rishi said, "Or maybe..."

------------------------------------------------------------

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

As classes came to a close, the bell rang and most students exited their respective classrooms, with most of them making their way to the school's exit. Amongst the crowd were Hiro, Baymax, and the Watanabe Sisters. Even more, Aiko was wearing a purple crop top under a white sando and grey shorts with leggings. Her hair was also noticeably shorter than before.

"Regina. Today's Bio Club meeting is scheduled for today." Baymax reminded as the four squeezed through the crowd. "It is expected to start-"

"In exactly 10 minutes?" Regina asked the robot, "Come on Baymax. A girl like me never loses track of her club schedule. Right?"

"Asked the sister who completely missed her first club meeting weeks ago.." Aiko said, to which Regina looked at the clock.

"I guess you guys are right.." Regina said, "And speaking of the clock, the meeting is about to start! I better go now. Bye!!"

As Regina ran off, Rishi approached the two.

"Hey Rish!" Aiko said, "Also, you told me about your internship schedule, right Hiro?"

"Yeah.” Hiro nodded, “And now you're talking, me and Rishi have to go now."

"Yup. Hamada told me about his internship thingy and promised me that he will allow me to go with him." Rishi said, "That's why I ditched my tablet for today."

"Hiro, your internship starts at-" Baymax reminded.

"And we better go, now!" Hiro replied, "You can assist Aiko with her research with Fred later on but for now, bye!"

"Bye- Ah!" Aiko waved, before being interrupted by Fred, who surprised her, "Fred! I told you several times, stop with the surprises!"

"B-but it went very well during your birthday last week!" Fred said.

"I only like birthday surprises, not those non-birthday ones... But just, try not to do it again.." Aiko said as she took her cellphone out of her pocket, "And I'm sorry for doubting you last night."

"Why?"

"Look!" Aiko exclaimed as she opened the "7 News" app.

"Breaking news! The Mad Jacks have returned to their life of crime and as a result, are no longer hosts of the famous show "Bright Lights, Loud Noises" and have been replaced by the boy band "4 2 Sing" as hosts. Manager said that they were not reporting to their schedules and as a result, they are fired. Now, this marks the end of this news report as "San Fransokyo: A True Love Story" returns with Lucy breaking up with James. Prepare for spoilers!"

As the news feed came to a close, Aiko was very dismayed, while as for Fred..

"See! I told you that I was right!" He exclaimed, "I guess the writers just forgot to put those sources up.."

"That's what I was thinking. That is why we are going to the library." She said as they made their way to the grounds.

"Yeah, but still, I can't believe this!" Fred exclaimed as he and Aiko were walking, "They went from bad to good and from good to bad!"

"Yeah.." Aiko muttered, "I might even stop watching that show..."

"Why?" Fred asked as he and Aiko stopped on their tracks. "I mean, you and Rishi fell in love with that show."

"It is not about what they broadcast." Aiko answered, before taking a breath, "It is about the producers.." She added, "That is why we are here.."

And at the same time, the two arrived at the library. The library is filled with a wall full of bookshelves with an art deco design. With dome pods in the middle used by visitors who would use their free time to research. Moreover, its ceilings are designed with geometric shapes that change colors depending on the time of the day. The librarian's desk is located right at the center. 

"To research about the show's history? That's cool!" Fred cajoled as he and Aiko walked to the computers, "I mean, I'm trying to get an intel on how to ask my girlfriend out."

"Wait, you're dating someone?" Aiko asked.

"Yes-" Fred said as he sat on one of the chairs, before being interrupted by someone.

"What are you two doing here?!" A lady with short brown hair, sporting a teal-colored long-sleeve shirt and denim jeans, asked as the two glanced at her. "To use the computers, you need to surrender your library card." [2]

"Umm.." Aiko muttered, "Where do we get one?"

"Oh! It seems you two are new here!" The lady realized something about them, "Come with me!"

After exchanging expressions, the two followed the lady. As the trio were walking, they passed by lots of various sections, ranging from fiction, to non fiction.

"Wait wait wait!" Aiko silently whispered, "Isn't this the "Art of Youthopia" book sissy was talking about?" [3]

"Yes. It is a new arrival by the way." The lady replied, "You can borrow it if you receive your library cards by the way."

As they walked, a question struck Aiko's mind, so she asked,

"I have a question. Is she the librarian or something.."

"Well, yeah.." Fred answered, "Her name is Miss Yvette Samonte, but everyone calls her Miss Yvie."

"Oooh!" Aiko cajoled, "Tell me more!"

"Chillax!" Miss Yvie said, "I will tell you more about me when you two receive your respective library cards.." She added before the three stopped in front of what looked like a photobooth, "Now, one by one, step in!"

After nodding, Aiko went first to take her Library Card picture preceding Fred. Afterwards, the two receive their library cards.

"Now, on the left side of the picture is your name and year level." Miss Yvie said, pointing at the spaces provided on the left before proceeding to the right, "And this is where you place your birthdate. And at the bottom of it is your library number."

"Ooh! I rarely visit the library in SFIT nowadays." Fred replied as he wore the card near his right shoulder, "And I think I already know where each section is.."

"Okay, okay, now that we have it all on the side, lemme tell you about my life..."  Miss Yvie announced to the two, "My name is Yvie Samonte, and I know much about this school's history."

"Wow, you must be one of the alumni from this school.." Aiko said.

"Yes. I enrolled here during 1998 to 2001.. I really don't remember much but it was a very long time. Not to mention the 2000 shooting."

"A- What now?"

"Yeah. It happened when Professor Granville was still our head professor." Miss Yvie explained, "Alrighty, it looks like you both are registered and now, you may use the computers."

"Thanks Maam!" Both exclaimed as they gave their library cards to Miss Yvie.

"And as much as possible, please avoid researching about the institute's past. Especially what happened during the shooting." The librarian told them.

"Why?" Fred asked.

"It's complicated." Miss Yvie replied, "That's why we decided to keep it a mystery."

Obake's Lair….

"Nice for you three to join us.." Trina said as she greeted the jacks. "Let me see... Gregory Brant, Jackson Brant, and Jaqueline Brant." [4]

The jacks are now situated in Obake's lair, with the supersonics on his side.

"Hey, we are tired of being hosts of a kids show!" Greg Jack stretched on his seat while eating gummy bears, "Our boss is going to pay for that."

"I can take one!" Stu said as he rolled his wheel-equipped seat to Greg, "Thank you!"

"You're welcome." Greg Jack said. "Oh, and you can call me Jack, but not "Greg"."

"Okie dokie." Obake said, smirkingly. "I need some intel about the four new allies helping Big Hero 6.. Jacks?"

"Understood. What do they look like?" Jaq asked as she helped herself a bottle of water.

"Well, they have four new allies." Obake replied, showing them drawings that illustrated a little bit of how they look. "One is wearing a cream sweater with an orange skirt, one is wearing a pink-striped black t-shirt with blue leggings, one wearing a sweater with a skeleton logo, and one who once wore a red jacket but went for a white t-shirt, covered with a purple crop-top." He added, "She also got a haircut as well."

"Oh..." Greg said as he looked at the picture. "The four must be friends with the kid and a blonde boy with a green beanie.." 

"He is Frederick Fredrickson IV." Obake said. "The other members are Ethel Tomago, Albert No-Ginger, and Adriana Rodrigo."

"And if you are asking, the "Kid" you are talking about is Hiro Liang Hamada." Trina said. [5]

"I remembered taking him off from his red electric bike thingy.." Jack muttered as he joined Greg in looking at the picture.

"It's a scooter..." Jaq corrected as she got to look at the picture. "Or a moped, a motorcycle.." 

"Or a bike.." [6]

Krei Tech Industries….

Hours passed after school, and as Hiro's shift came to an end, Rishi stood up to help the latter with all the clutter.

"I'm glad that you took the time to go with me." Hiro replied. "Speaking of which, what is the show you were talking about earlier?"

"I will tell you later." Rishi said. "You promised you would give me a ride to SFIT, right?"

"Yeah. I mean, Lucky Cat Cafe is much closer to SFIT." Hiro chuckled as he got his helmet and keys. "But for now, let's go home."

"Right behind you buddy. I mean, everyone hates traffic, right?" Rishi said as he and Hiro exited the lab.

Lucky Cat Cafe….

As for the cafe, Aunt Cass was cleaning the tables after most of the customers finished eating. It was already afterhours, and it is also the time the cafe closes for the day.

"That will be 2 dollars and 25 cents!" Honey Lemon said to one of the customers, who paid. "Enjoy!"

"You did a very nice job helping me with my customers! Specifically on the first day of work!" Aunt Cass greeted as she approached Honey. "With that, it looks like I'm not the only one working here.."

"Pleasure doing business with you!" Honey responded with a wink. However, her attention was turned to Wasabi and Gogo, who entered the cafe with worried expressions.

"Guys-" She gasped.

"We already know." Gogo said, before she and Wasabi took a seat before Honey joined them. "But we are more worried about Hiro."

"Yeah, judging how he got his leg injured." Wasabi muttered. "Honestly, as a licensed driver myself, I don't recommend him driving at night. Especially when the Jacks are back."

"I wonder if he's going to be okay.." Honey said, voicing her concerns as Gogo and Wasabi comforted her.

The Streets….

"Ok so there's this show." Rishi said as he and Hiro rode through the streets on the latter's scooter. "It's called "Bright Lights, Loud Noises". Me, Aiko, and Fred watch it.."

"Oh." Hiro said as he focused on the road for a little while. "You mean Bright Lights, Loud Noises?" He added. "Not to mention, I encountered the jacks with the others once, when I was sick."

"Yes! Fred told me the entire story." Rishi chuckled. "I mean they became good after a prison release." He continued, until Hiro was forced to stop the scooter. "Wait, why did we stop?"

"No." Hiro said as he looked up. "This.."

In response, Rishi looked up as something was covering the two.

"It looks like.." Rishi mutters as he gets suspicious at what is covering him and Hiro.

"That is why I hate night driving..." Hiro muttered.

As the thing got closer, the two said..

"Oh no.." The two muttered, looking worriedly at each other.

"What are we going to do, Hamada?" Rishi asked Hiro, who was looking at the blimp. "Is this a sign of a villain emergency?"

"The logo..." Hiro muttered, prompting the youngest prodigy to look up as well.

"I know what this logo meant!" Rishi exclaimed.

"The Mad Jacks!" The two said in unison.

As the blimp got closer, Hiro started his scooter up, revving its engine afterwards.

"Rishi, hold on." Hiro instructed before he started driving at top speed, causing Rishi to scream.

"Hiro!- I thought you hated fast driving!" He exclaimed to the genius.

"I know. But in some cases, I have too." Hiro said, trying to speed up a little. "It's the only way. But I'm a safe driver."

"But that does not mean I won't worry!” Rishi then exclaimed, before looking up once again. “Look out!"

"Aim for the tires." Greg said as Jaq aimed the laser to one of the scooters tires. Luckily, Hiro was very quick to avoid it.

"If I didn't upgrade this baby, then we would've been hit. Hold on Rishi.." Hiro said before pressing a button which makes the scooter invisible.

"W-where did they go?" Jack asked in shock.

"Agh! Forget it." Greg said. "If it's too late, then it's too late. We're going home."

As the blimp went across a different direction, Hiro slows the scooter down and turns off invisibility mode.

"That was close.." Rishi muttered. "But that was some nice driving."

"Thanks for trusting me! Say, we should head back to SFIT and tell the others what happened." Hiro said.

"Good idea! But are they still chasing us?" Rishi said.

"I don't think so. We might've lost them..." Hiro said. "Speaking of that, did you just call me Hiro?"

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

Moments later, as they arrived in front of SFIT, the two got off.

"From what I know, Fred and Aiko were still researching what happened to the jacks.." Rishi said. "Because the library closes at 8:30PM. We better make a run for it though.."

"Hiro, Rishi!" Karmi exclaimed, prompting the two to look at her as she and Regina approached them. "Our Bio-Club meeting just came to an end."

"And what happened to you two?" Regina asked, noticing their worried looks.

"It is a long story but.." Hiro said.

"We don't wanna spill the tea." Rishi said.

In the library, as Miss Yvie was packing up all of her stuff, Fred and Aiko rushed to her as she turned off the computer on her desk.

"Oh! Mister Fredrickson and Aiko! Looks like you just finished researching." She said as she handed the two their respective library cards. "How was the research?"

"For our favorite show, we couldn't find any. Except that we learned more about the show's past and when it premiered." Aiko said. "Looks like that show existed right before our generation."

"As for me, I did not have sufficient time.. Not to mention the library closing.." Fred said, before they hear the door being slammed by a nerve-wrecked Hiro and Rishi.

"Hiro! Rishi! What happened?! And how was work??" Aiko asked as she, Fred and Miss Yvie ran to them.

"It's a long story." Rishi said.

"If it's a long story, then we'll listen." Aiko then said.

"So am I! Everyone! Into the private reading booths!" Miss Yvie exclaimed. 

Moments later, the two were in a secluded spot within the library, telling Fred, Aiko, Baymax and Miss Yvie about what happened earlier.

"And that's what happened." Hiro said. "And once again, we're sorry about nearly slamming the door."

"It's okay! But what type of something happened to them.." Miss Yvie said. "And if I'm not mistaken, they used to host Bright Lights, Loud Noises before? Am I right?"

"Yeah. But they just got replaced." Rishi said.

"They used to be very nice." Aiko said. "That's why me and Fred went here."

"Oh I see..." Yvie said. "That is what I have been wondering about. And I'm planning to do research on it when I close the library for the day." She added, getting up from her seat. "Which is right now!"

"Okay..." Rishi said. "If you do make progress, why not send it to us."

"Good idea! My PictoGram account is Yv_Etiquettes." Yvie said, before the students make their leave. "See you tomorrow, if you're planning to visit BUT before that..."

"What."

"Well, there is this thing that I give to students who are the last ones visiting the library for the day..." Yvie muttered. "Bring it in guys!"

"A hug?" Aiko muttered.

"Yes!" Yvie exclaimed as all the five hugged her. "Now, you may leave, bye!"

"Bye!"

"And next time, if you're scared and running away from something, just don't push the door really hard." Yvie reminded Hiro. 

Moments later, the group were already at SFIT’s entrance.

"Well, that was an awkward visit to the library.." Aiko muttered as she and the gang were exiting the campus. "Anyways, Hiro. Are you going to be okay going off alone?"

"I think.. But I just cannot get that thing out of my head." Hiro said, holding his hair as he knelt down.

"You're referring to the Mad Jacks, huh..." Rishi asked as he knelt to Hiro.

"Mhm."

"Well, that was traumatizing. But if you want, you could come over to my mansion." Fred said. "I mean, Karmi usually goes there for y'know.”

"To wish that she's okay" Hiro asked as he loaded Baymax onto the scooter. "I mean, she is free to visit the cafe if she isn't feeling good."

As for Aiko, her eyes glanced at the clock, about to strike 8:58.

"Oh well, looks like me and Rishi has to go." She said as Rishi got up. 

"Yeah. It looks like all students have a curfew at 9:00 PM. Latecomers are not welcome of course." Rishi said. "So we have to leave, bye!"

"Bye!" Hiro said as he got onto his scooter. "And Fred, I'll drive you there if it's okay with you.."

"Why would I say no to that!" Fred responded as he also got on, wearing the helmet Hiro gave him. "Also, you made a pretty good decision on inviting me on a scooter drive."

"It was no pleasure. But I bet this is going to be my last time driving at night.." Hiro said as he started the scooter's engines once again. "Plus you said that anyone is welcome at your mansion, right?"

"Well yes, except for weekends." Fred said. "Especially the 1st weekend of the month since my auntie and uncle would be staying there...."

"Speaking of that, I have a feeling that the jacks figured out our identities thanks to Obake." Hiro said. "That poses a risk of me being taken off my scooter."

"Oof."

"It's going to be fine, isn't it?"

"It should be. As long as you're with me and your friends from SFIT, you are fine." Fred said. "Though for me, I'm not fine... I have a date with Olivia and the jacks are back!"

"Why didn't you tell us earlier?" Hiro gasped.

"It's personal, but I will tell you guys more tomorrow." Fred replied, before he looked around his surroundings, enjoying the ride home.

SFIT Dormitories….

"I hope Hiro's okay.." Rishi worries as he and Aiko enter their room. "Cause I definitely felt bad when I found out that he was taken off his scooter by those pesky jacks!"

"I feel you, Rish. But what worries me is not just them uncovering his and the other heroes' identities!" Aiko was worried. "What if, they're not just looking for Big Hero 6. They might be looking for us at this time."

"Or even more, they might also be looking for PG, The Cruzes, Karmi, your sister, and the other allies of the Big Heroverse." Rishi said, as he put his tablet on charge. "What is with this Obake guy?" [7]

"I really don't know." Aiko replied as she turned on the computer. "We just became friends with them, not to mention us finding out about their secret." She added. "Don't tell me that you-"

"Will tell the world?" Rishi asked. "There's no way I'm telling every other human about their identities! Privacy matters, am I right?" He added, as Aiko looked confused. "I guess Fred was right, these guys returned from being our favorite hosts, to being baddies, like Obake."

"I second you, buddy. It's just that the website we saw yesterday might be true. No cap." Aiko answered. [8]

On Regina and Karmi’s end, they were also in their room, discussing about what happened with Hiro and Rishi.

"Do you think Hiro's okay with being off alone? I mean, we saw them earlier, feeling sort of scared and worried.." Regina asked as Karmi exited the bathroom, wearing her PJs. "Not to mention him being taken off his scooter once by "Greg" Jack..."

"Fred mentioned it to you?" Karmi asked, to which Regina nodded.

"Maybe we should give my sister and Rishi a call." Regina said. "I heard that no one is allowed to exit their rooms beyond this hour until 6 in the morning."

"That's a good ide-" 

Suddenly, the TV started beeping. It turns out, Rishi and Aiko are doing the same thing. Surprised, the two decided to answer the call.

"Hey sis!" Aiko said on the other line.

"Sister!!!!" Regina said, hugging the TV screen. "And Rishi! I'm glad you are safe!"

"H-how did you know?" Rishi asked on the other line.

"We will talk tomorrow." Regina said.

"But what matters is that you both are safe." Karmi said as she got onto the bed. "Now, go to sleep you two.. Not to mention Aiko having an internship tomorrow after class."

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

As night melted into day, it was breaktime. Hiro and Baymax were talking as they made their way to the shared labs.

"Hiro? Are you sure you're okay with partaking in missions involving them?" Baymax asked.

"Yes." Hiro replied as he and Baymax entered the lab where his other friends were waiting. "As long as I'm with you, I'm safe and okay."

"Hiro!" Karmi exclaimed, running to Hiro for a hug while Regina follows suit just to comfort him. "I'm glad you're safe."

"Rishi told us what happened yesterday, which is also the reason why both of you looked tired." Regina explained.

"It is not a group hug without me!" Rishi said.

"And me!" Aiko, who is still in her attire from the previous day, said just as she and Rishi joined in.

As the group of friends shared a group hug, Hiro's cellphone started ringing.

"It's Fred." Hiro said.

"He's got a date. Am I right?" Aiko asked.

"Yes."

"Hiro! My main man!" Fred greeted him on the other line.

"How's the date going for you and.." Rishi asked, but forgot what to say.

"And Olivia?” Fred replied to Rishi’s question, “Well, she's still getting ready. Not to mention her hair growth!"

"Wow!" The others cajoled on the other line.

"Well then, good luck with the date!" Karmi said. "I better go now. My next class is coming up."

"And so is mine!" Regina said.

"We better go now. Bye Fred!" Hiro said as the call ended.

The Streets….

After the call ended, Fred hears the sound of an opening door from the building. And the person who opened the door is none other than Olivia, who is sporting a white dress with a denim jacket. Her hair has also grown longer since the fundraising event.

"Nice look, my lady!" Fred complimented as Olivia approached him.

"Wow, thanks!" Olivia said. "Sorry I took so long to get ready. There was a wardrobe malfunction that has been taken care of, somehow." She explained, looking at Fred's outfit. "I also like yours."

"Thanks, Olive tree." Fred said, right before he and Olivia walked. " And now, the biggest question of the day.."

"What is it??" “Olivia asked.

"Are you ready to experience the best DATE ever?? The date where we get to talk about the Super Tall Fire-Breathing Hurricane Centaur?" Fred asked.

"Yes, I'm so ready! But I'm so hungry..” Olivia muttered, clenching her stomach. “Maybe we should check The Waitlist."

"Good Idea!” Fred exclaimed at Olivia’s reply. “I mean, I woke up a little late and skipped breakfast..."

However, unbeknownst to them, there was someone watching them from behind. As they were out of their view, the figure, who turns out to be Jack, disguised as a bearded man, taps his earbud.

"They're headed for The Waitlist." Jack said on his intercom.

"Then that's where we're headed." Greg Jack said as Jack boarded the blimp through a ladder.

The Waitlist….

Time passed by, and the couple, having entered the restaurant and seated on their table with a luxurious design, were now waiting for their order.

"How's life?" Fred asked.

"Well, it's been very normal.” Olivia replied, “Well, except that Richardson has been persuading me to break up with you. It's very illegal., am I right?"

"Typically illegal."

"And as for the rest of what's been going on with me recently, it's looking pretty fine.” Olivia said more about what she has been up to. “And also, guess who's graduating after this year.. Me!"

"Wow, wow, wow! Congratulations!" Fred exclaimed.

"What about yours?" Olivia asked.

"Well..." Fred muttered, nervously. "It's pretty fine. I just got accepted into SFIT's cheerleading club!" [9]

"Then, congratulations to you as well!" Olivia replied, but looked at Fred's expression. "Speaking of that, are you okay?"

"Ah! I'm okie dokie. Just got something in my head." Fred said. "But I don't wanna tell you. It's just too personal." He added, right before the waiter places the food on the table.

"Here's your order." The waiter, named Sydney, said. "Please be careful. It's hot."

"Okay! Thank you so much!" Olivia said, before realizing something. "I forgot to mention! There is this new manga that I'm very fond of."

"Ooh!" Fred chorused. "Tell me more, tell me more!"

"Well, this is a manga that focuses on two friends, a human and a witch, getting together. The name of the story is Daryl and Oyster, and most of the plot is spoilers but according to the media, there is an upcoming show that would be based on that."

"Ooh! I used to like Bright Lights, Loud Noises." Fred replied.

"Wait, you know that show?"

"Yes. But if ever the show you're talking about gets released in the future, I would show it to some of my best friends who also used to like Bright Lights, Loud Noices." Fred said. "Too bad that the hosts turned bad once again.."

"Yeah.. But with more news being released for Daryl and Oyster, I'm definitely excited for what's coming. Not to mention Maja Minerva!"

"She's the main character?" Fred muttered. "I mean, I learned that she used to study at SFIT."

"Yes! I heard that she's going to portray one of the characters there." Olivia explained, "I'm not going to tell you more. It's spoilers."

"Haha... Alrighty!" Fred chuckled. "Let's eat.

As the two ate, Olivia observed Fred’s actions.

"I have a feeling he's hiding something from me.." Olivia said to herself as they ate.

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

Meanwhile, as the morning classes ended and lunch started, Hiro, Baymax, Rishi and Aiko were hanging out in the former's lab when...

"Guys! News flash! News flash!" Rishi gestured for the other three to look at his phone.

"Breaking news! It looks like we have found the Mad Jacks, who seem to have returned from being nice to being baddies who are shooting lasers all around San Fransokyo!"

“Oh my gosh!” Hiro exclaimed in shock and concern, “Fred!”

"If you're scared, allow us to take over your position." Rishi offered as he switched off his phone, “I mean, we helped you guys before, right?”

However, Aiko was against Rishi’s words.

"A-are you crazy?! We don't even have super armor."  Aiko said to the protege, "But we can still help, right?"

"It's going to be too dangerous. Let us handle it. In the meantime, tell the others to suit up." Hiro said, before the other two agreed. As they leave the lab, Hiro calls Skymax.

The Arcade….

On Fred's end, he and Olivia were having fun at the arcade when...

"Come on, come on....!" Fred muttered as he tried to earn a price in the claw machine, until the power suddenly went off. "Aw! Come on!"

"Didn't the mayor tell us that they fixed the problem with the power?" Olivia muttered.

"They did fix it weeks ago.." Fred answered, until the lights turned on, revealing the Mad Jacks.

"Surprise.." Greg Jack said, "So unexpected.."

"Omigosh! It's them!" A witness said.

"They used to host Bright Lights, Loud Noises!" Another witness said.

"Bright Lights, Loud Noises?" Olivia muttered, "I used to watch that."

"Watch out!" Fred said, gesturing Olivia to dodge the attack and follow him to a safer place. "Stay here."

As Fred said that, he took his phone out and was relieved that the others were on their way. As he calls Skymax, Olivia senses something.

"I knew he was hiding something.." She thought to herself.

"Olivia, I will be right back." Fred said, "You get everyone to safety."

"Okay Fred! Be careful!" Olivia exclaimed as she ran through the lasers.

The Streets….

As Fred ran to a nearby alley just to change into his super armor, Gogo, Wasabi and Honey Lemon arrived at the scene, wearing their super armor.

"At least my classes are over." Wasabi thought to himself.

"Not to mention Aunt Cass giving me a day off from working at the cafe." Honey Lemon said, "She already knows that I worked very hard yesterday."

After suiting up, Fred then stands in front of the arcade, where Jaq was waiting for him.

"Long time no see, Lizard guy." Jaq said to him. "I challenge you to.."

"To a duel?" Fred asked. "I mean, what kind of hero denies an invitation to a duel-"

However, his words were interrupted when Jaq started attacking. As he tried to dodge each of her attacks, Honey Lemon came to her rescue by pinning her to the wall using her chem balls.

"Thanks, Chem Girl!" Fred said.

"No problem, but watch out!" Honey said, but it was too late for Fred to notice. Turns out, Jack lifted him off the floor, then dropped him to a nearby trash bin. He was okay, but his real identity could be seen.

"Dude!" Olivia ran to his aid. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, Olivia-" Fred said, but gasps upon his realization.

It looks like Olivia might’ve discovered his identity when he was dropped onto the trash bin.

"So this is what you've been hiding for so long?" Olivia said as she helped him out of the bin.

"How did you know?"

"I-i can help!" Olivia exclaimed, only to be pushed away by Fred himself.

"A superhero does not need help! I can do this." Fred said as he leaped through the sky and joined his teammates, much to Olivia's dismay.

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

On Hiro's end, after helping Baymax with his armor, he then starts suiting himself up, but is interrupted when Miss Yvie, who was passing by his lab, noticed him. Reluctant, she peeked up to the door.

"Hiro? That is not how it works.." She told him, "Next time, when dressing up, you should close your labs doors. That way no one could see you."

"Uh! Okay Miss Yvie!" Hiro replied, “Sorry!”

However, when he looked in the mirror, he noticed that he was still in his super armor, so he had to make up an excuse.

"Hiro.."

"Miss Yvie! I can explain!" Hiro said. "We were playing, uhh.. Dress ups!"

However, Miss Yvie entered the lab and looked at Baymax, who was in his super armor.

"Is this the red guy from Big Hero 6?" She asked, wondering if he was a member of the superhero team.

"Uhh.." Hiro muttered, nervously.

"Listen up, Hiro. If you are keeping a secret, you can tell me, but I won't tell anyone whatsoever." Yvie said as she helped him with his armor. “Now, let me help you with this thing.”

With no choice, Hiro decided to speak up and tell the truth to the librarian.

"Fine.. He's the red guy from Big Hero 6, and I'm also the leader.." Hiro explained. "We were already aware of what was going on and we had to help. It was Tadashi's dream to help others."

"Oh.. I see." Miss Yvie said, looking around his lab, "But if you want, I can help. What's the plan?"

"Well, there was a Mad Jacks sighting near the arcade, and the rest of my team are already helping the citizens out." Hiro explained to Miss Yvie. "You can help us by being our guide."

"Uhm.. Sure. But speaking of those guys, I have something to show you.” Miss Yvie replied and told him, “But you have to take off your armor and get your library card.

"Okay, Miss Yvie."

Moments later, as Miss Yvie and Hiro, who has seemed to have changed back to his civilian attire, enter the library, Miss Yvie turns on her computer at her desk.

"Okay. So, as I was saying, I might've saved some useful information that you may use when defeating them.." She said, "Take a look!"

"Wow.. It looks like they co-existed right before I was born.. Big bro was alive at that time, but now, I'm the only family member left.." Hiro muttered as he looked at the information.

"Wait, what happened to your family?" Miss Yvie asked.

"It's complicated, I don't remember most of it.." Hiro said. "Maybe it's because I was just a newborn baby at that time." He explained, “I never even got to see my parents. I don’t really know what happened to them, honestly.”

Just then, Hiro felt a buzz on his phone.

"I have to take this call." He replied, exiting the library.

"Hiro! Where are you?" Fred said on the other line. "We managed to evacuate everyone to a safer place!"

"I'm on my way, there was something to be taken care of." He told him.

"We'll wait. See ya!" Fred said, ending the call.

"What was it?" Miss Yvie asked as she checked on Hiro.

"The others. I have to go.” He told her, “Just send me the information later, if you have the time to do it."

"Okie dokie. And before you go, remember. Every secret you tell me, is a secret that I will keep."

"H-huh?"

"Your secrets are safe to me, Hiro." Miss Yvie said, before wrapping Hiro into a hug. "Now go, you and your team have a city to save."

"Thanks, Miss Yvie." Hiro said as he let go. 

However, before he walked towards the stairs, he realized something.

"If you want, you could help us remotely." Hiro went up to Miss Yvie and told her, “I mean, I have a feeling that what you would be sending would be useful-”

"Help you, remotely? As in me helping you when I'm not there?" Yvie asked, interrupting the genius, who then nodded at her. "Sure. But if things get worse, I will be there."

"Okay, Miss Yvie! Take care and good luck!"

"Same thing to you!" Miss Yvie said as Hiro ran off.

The Streets….

What happened next passed in a blur. And a few moments later, Hiro and Baymax were flying to the scene.

"Sorry for the wait, but me and Baymax are on our way." Hiro, using his intercom, called their teammates.

"Hiro, they're headed to Night Market Square!" Wasabi said as he and the others were chasing the Mad Jacks to the location.

"I'm nearby, speaking of which, there is someone who will be helping us out for this mission."

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

On Miss Yvie's end, she gets into her car and starts her laptop, thus connecting with the members.

“I may have known Hiro’s parents before he was born,” She spoke to herself, “But Cass wanted to keep it all a secret, so maybe I shouldn’t tell him yet.” She added, “I might tell him, when he learns something about it. [10]

The Streets….

"Who's going to help?" Honey asked, "Is it Rishi?"

"Or Regina?" Gogo asked, "Or maybe Aiko or Karmi."

"Oh! What about Miss Yvie?" Fred asked.

"You got it right, Fred!"

All of a sudden, Miss Yvie’s voice could be heard by all of the heroes, especially Wasabi, who was shocked.

"Am I loud and clear?" She asked the team.

"Yes!" All members chorused.

"Hiro?" Wasabi asked.

"It's a long story, but she will be helping us. Just remotely." Hiro explained.

As the heroes went for the Night Market Square, Olivia watched them from afar, her purse being taken away by Jaq.

"They're getting away!" Olivia shouted.

"I heard that, Miss!" Hiro said in a different voice, "Everyone, hold on!"

As the others clinged onto Baymax, Honey Lemon was lifted by Jack. Hiro witnesses that and shoots a magnet onto Honey's armor, pulling her into Baymax with his lasso.

"Thanks for the save!" Honey exclaimed.

"No problem, Honey! Besides, this is what he gets for taking me off my scooter once." Hiro said.

As the heroes were flying, Fred’s eyes turned to the ground, looking at Oliva, who was chasing them.

"Olivia..?" He muttered.

"My purse!" Olivia exclaimed, “They took it out of my hand!”

Just then, Fred’s eyes glanced at Jack, who was aiming his laser towards Olivia.

"Olivia, watch out!" Fred exclaimed, jumping off Baymax just to protect her.

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology….

Inside her car, Miss Yvie sensed the trouble the heroes were having, especially Fred. So she started her car, buckled her seatbelt, before driving off.

"Be careful guys! I'm on my way." Miss Yvie said on her intercom, "Fred, wait for me. Put her into a secluded area and I will be there to pick you both up."

The Streets….

"Okie dokie- Ouch!" Fred said, until he notices something wrong.

Turns out, his right ankle was heavily damaged, thanks to his landing.

"Are you okay!?" Olivia asked him, concerned.

With no choice, Olivia dragged Fred into the alley, hiding behind a pile of boxes so that no one could see them.

"I'm fine, let's wait for Miss Yvie right here. She'll be picking us up." Fred said, before he realized something, "Listen, I'm really sorry for pushing you earlier. It's just that I wanted to keep it all a secret."

"Huh?"

"I-it's for our privacy.” He explained, “Because privacy matters, am I right?"

"Don't worry, it's all safe with me." Olivia said just as Miss Yvie arrived on the scene. 

“Hey Fred!” Miss Yvie opened the window and called out his name, “Need a lift? You must be injured.”

“He is definitely injured, Miss.” Olivia replied, “Which is why we need a lift.”

“Thank you so much.” Fred thanked the two.

“You’re welcome, Freddie. Also, you really have to stop hyperfixating about comics.” Olivia replied, "Cause they could get you easily distracted, especially during missions. Now, let me help you into the car."

After the two entered the car, Miss Yvie pressed on the gas pedal and drove off.

"Are you guys okay?" Miss Yvie asked the two.

"We are.” Olivia replied, “But dear Freddie needs some time to rest."

"Speaking of that, is Professor Wasabi also on the team?" Miss Yvie asked them.

"Yup." Fred said, before realizing something. He knows that he shouldn’t say anything about his teammates’ identities.

"Don't worry, whatever secret you should hide, it is safe with me." Miss Yvie said, "Now, say we should meet with the others."

The Bay….

The chase ended near the bay as Baymax and the Mad Jacks landed. Honey readies her chem-purse while Gogo throws a disc to Jaq, making her slip.

"Guys! I'm on my way to the port." Miss Yvie said on her intercom, "I'm here for all of you."

"Thanks, Miss Yvie!" Wasabi answered, "Also, is Fred with you?"

"Yes, Professor Wasabi.” Miss Yvie replied to him, “But I'm afraid he's injured from saving Olivia."

"Welp, it's just the five of us.." Hiro muttered, “This is just like the time I got sick.”

At the same time, Miss Yvie stopped the car right near the bay.

"What can I use as a weapon?" Olivia asked, “I mean, ever since meeting Fred, I see him using improvised weapons, just in case we get into trouble.”

"My old books, why?" Miss Yvie answered, “I mean, I saved myself from a burglar thanks to them.”

Olivia looked out of the window and told her,

"They could use some help..”

As she said that, Miss Yvie and Fred felt their blood run cold. Despite this, they still nodded.

"Not just help, but some assistance from us!" Miss Yvie said as she moved the car forward.

“Yay!” Fred exclaimed, “We have some new import members!”

“You mean sidekicks, huh.” Olivia blushed.

Outside the car, “Big Hero 5” were face to face with the Mad Jacks.

"We have you surrounded." Hiro told them, "Now, tell me that I don't have powers without telling me that I don't have powers!" He added, before shooting a magnet on the back of Jack's rocket booster, thus shutting it down.

Much to his anger, Greg Jack was about to shoot the heroes with a laser. However, Olivia got out of the car at the same time and used the moment to throw the book towards Greg Jack, hitting him on the face.

"Critical hit!" Olivia exclaimed, while Wasabi utilizes his blades to cut off the jetpack's power while Baymax launches a rocket fist towards him, pushing him to the river.

Big Hero 6 Base….

Some time later, the heroes, plus some of their allies, including Miss Yvie and Olivia, were in the conference room, watching the news. The arrest of the Mad Jacks were being broadcasted.

"Welp, it looks like we're ready to retire from the Bright Lights, Loud Noises fandom.." Aiko muttered. [11]

"I mean, about the upcoming show Olivia told me earlier during our date, I bet it is going to be awesome!" Fred said.

Just then, Regina went up to Fred and said,

"If I could guess, your date did not go as.."

"Planned?" Fred completed his friend’s statement, "Well, not exactly as planned but it was very unexpected!"

"Well, even though it wasn't the best, still, we stuck together." Olivia said.

"Olivia, Miss Yvie. If both of you weren't there to help us, then the Mad Jacks would've gotten away." Hiro said, "Thank you so much for helping us when needed."

"No problem. No problem at all!"  Miss Yvie exclaimed, "Your secrets are safe with us."

"I guess our identities were not revealed, at least." Gogo said.

"Yeah.. Identities." Karmi said, expressing concern about the heroes’ identities.

"What is it, Karmi?" Hiro asked.

"It's not just about your identities, Hiro." Karmi explained, "I'm very worried."

"Us allies do agree. I mean, we wanted to help you with all the missions you guys are doing." Chief Cruz said.

"But still, I'm super duper glad that my association with you guys is still kept secret." Regina said.

Suddenly, Hiro felt the same thing.

"I get it now.. Obake might be looking for you guys." Hiro said.

"Now that you've mentioned it.." Rishi muttered, "I'm also feeling the same thing. We're all feeling the same thing, am I right?"

As the other allies agreed, Chief Cruz ends up having an idea.

"Hiro, when you guys were all wanted fugitives, you all decided to lay low.” Chief Cruz said to him, “That's why you built this headquarters. Am I right?"

"Yup. We did this so we can hide. But since you joined our side, we're still using this headquarters as our, let's say, training grounds." Hiro replied, before he realized something. "So you're saying that all allies have to lay low?"

"Yup.." Chief Cruz said, "We need to lay low, just to be safe."

"I'm okay with that, Chief." Hiro said, "Is everyone okay with that?"

"For me, I'm more than okay with that." Wasabi said.

"Not to mention Obake being a threat to our identities." Honey said, "He's like a stalker to me."

"That's why my PictoGram account is always private." Karmi said.

"Wait. Who's in charge of us allies?" Regina asked.

"Now that you said it, Chief Cruz and Aiko will both be in charge." Hiro replied.

"Wait, really?" Chief Cruz muttered.

"I'm also a cheerleader in charge!" Aiko said, "Means I can handle this!"

"Yup. Chief Cruz has been our father-figure and Aiko has been my sister-figure when it comes to me studying in SFIT." Hiro said, "That's why I appointed you both. Hence Chief Cruz suggesting you guys to lay low."

"Yes yes yes yes yes!" Fred exclaimed as he jumped around and celebrated.

"Fred, don't do that!" Miss Yvie warned, before Fred almost tripped.

"You might get yourself hurt, or worse." Chief Cruz added.

"Okie okie I will stop." Fred replies. "Now, introducing the members of The Allies of the Heroverse! A team formed by Big Hero 6's allies!" He announced as each and every ally went in front of the screen. [12]

"Honestly, I loved the name!" Olivia said.

"Yup, and as Miss Yvie and Olivia said, your secrets are safe with us." Aiko said as the others chuckled in response.

Obake's Lair….

"Unbelievable, just unbelievable..." Obake said as his team watched the news.

"So they failed." Trina said, to which Obake nodded.

"Don't worry, I know a certain group who can take their place.." Obake said as he looked at a picture of three girls, who were sporting unique hairstyles and were wearing rollerskates.

Chapter Text

1. I used the lyrics of "Sweetest Ride on the Sunnyside" (A song from season 3) as reference for the show's theme song.

2. Storytime: The librarian of my school enforced that rule and... The way Aiko and Fred reacted was exactly the same as what I experienced.

3. I based it from the upcoming Amphibia book and my imaginary series, Youtuber's Life. (I might make it into a story.."

4. That was my only choice for their last names.

5. I STILL COULDN'T DECIDE OF HIS MIDDLE NAME!!!!!!!

6. I mean, that's how the fandom references Hiro's vehicle... (For context, some of the fandom referenced it as a moped, some did reference it as motorcycle or bike, but most refers to it as a scooter, just like me, who used to refer to it as a moped.)

7. Just a catch-up, PG means Professor Granville! That's how Rishi and Aiko refers to her.

8. Since Rishi is 11 and Aiko is 14 and the events of the show takes place in the 2030s, I decided to put the "Generation Alpha" trend into place.. I might do it to Hiro as well since he is 15.

9. HC: SFIT has a cheer squad and amongst the members are Fred and Aiko!

10. SPOILERS FOR MY UPCOMING S1B!!!

11. Every show has a fandom...

12. The screen also displays the faces of Heathcliff, Professor Granville, Globby, Megan, and Roddy since they weren't there.

Chapter Text

Lucky Cat Cafe....

"Has anyone heard of Daryl and Oyster?" Fred said, as he took a bite of his food. "It's an upcoming show. Me and Olivia are gonna be so excited when it premieres."

"Hang on. Isn't Daryl and Oyster a manga?" Gogo asked while Hiro scrolled through his cellphone.

"It's a manga." Fred replied.

"And that manga is going to get a live-action adaption. That's why it is also a show." Hiro added. "Not to mention Maja Minerva."

"Yup. She's playing an upcoming character!" Fred exclaimed.

"I finished reading most of its chapters yesterday and…" Honey said.

However, her words were interrupted when Richardson and Nega-Globby entered the cafe.

“And what?” Wasabi asked.

“Not again, not again..” Honey muttered as she slumped on the table, pointing at Nega-Globby and Richardson. “Them.”

Both Richardson and Nega-Globby fell in line in front of the counter.

"I DON'T CARE!!!!" Richardson said as Nega-Globby shoved him out of his way. "You're the one who is supposed to pay, not me!"

"Says the guy who once used his gift-card as a method of payment." Nega-Globby said. "And I don't even have cash! And you are supposed to pay because you own a comic shop!"

"Fine, fine, fine.. But only this time.." Richardson said, pushing Nega-Globby to one of the vacant seats, causing his goo to splash over the customers’ meal, including Wasabi.

"Ugh.. Gross." Wasabi muttered as he looked at his plate, before he stood up from his seat. "Rather eat at the cafeteria instead."

As Wasabi left, the other thought of doing the same thing.

"Bye guys!" Fred said as he stood up. "Don't want to cause some more drama."

"Me and Baymax have to go.. At least we're full." Hiro said as he was also about to make his leave. "See you all after my internship!"

As for Gogo and Honey Lemon, they decided to stay silent and leave.

"That would be 5 dollars and 20 cents." Aunt Cass said as Richardson paid with his credit card. "And my biggest apologies, we only accept cash payments, not card or online payments.."

"See, I told you!" Richardson exclaimed much to his dismay, blaming Nega-Globby. "You should be the one who's paying!"

------------------------------------------------------------

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology....

"Why is time so fast, Hiro??" Rishi said as sat down at the table.

"I don't know." Hiro responded. “As for you Aiko, I like your new outfit.”

“Really? Thanks!” Aiko responded as she leaned towards Hiro. “I’m so glad I found a permanent attire instead of having to change almost every single day!”

It was already lunch, and Hiro, Baymax and the former's classmates were having lunch at the cafeteria.

"We don't control time, Rishi." Regina said as she took a bite of her shawarma. [1] "Why are you asking?"

"It's because Mystery Loaf Monday is next week!" Rishi exclaimed. "And I still don't understand the meaning of it."

"There, there Rish. Take it slow." Aiko said as Rishi leaned onto her shoulder. "Time is gold."

"Aiko is right." Baymax said.

“I remember one coworker telling me and Hiro about that.” Aiko added.

Just then, Hiro gets an idea to change the topic.

"Topic change, there's something that happened while me and the others were having breakfast." Hiro said. "It's a long story, but-"

"NEGA-GLOBBY AND RICHARDSON MOLE WERE FIGHTING!" Fred announced as he arrived at the table. "And their fight caused a mess in our food. So we had no choice but to leave for whatever thing we're supposed to do. Like me, who has to-"

"Buy the very first volume of Daryl and Oyster?" Aiko guessed. "I mean, me and Rishi are planning to buy a copy of it after my internship.”

"Well, if you want, you could join us later." Rishi said. "But who's Nega-Globby?"

"Also, isn’t there supposed to be one Globby?” Karmi asked.

"Well, he is somehow a doppelganger of Globby." Hiro said. "But way meaner. As in someone who is very demanding and wants people to do things the "normal" way."

"Oh, I get it.." Karmi muttered. "From what I learned from Liv, he was created by Chris and Di using some of Globby's body substance." She added. "That's why he's acting like a monster."

"Not to mention Globby eating him.." Fred added. "Which was a bad idea and as a result, we became fugitives thanks to Chief Cruz's hate of superheroes."

"We are no longer fugitives." Baymax said. “Since June twenty-two, twenty-thirty-two.”

"That was a very long story.." Aiko muttered. "Perhaps he could change a bit. As in becoming a nicer guy-"

However, unlike her, the rest of the group shaked their heads in disagreement.

"I don't think that's happening." Hiro said.

"Nuh-uh, sis." Regina said.

"Not happening, roomie.." Rishi said as Karmi and Fred nodded their heads sideways.

"Why?" Aiko asked.

"Because of some of his gimmicks." Hiro said. "I will never forget the time when he nearly broke my scooter after an upgrade."

"It's done." Hiro said as he put his wrench back to his toolbox. "Now, I'd say we should start it."

As Hiro got onto the scooter, he turned the keys, only for the scooter to make a chugging, rumbling, and growling noise.

"It won't start." Baymax concluded.

"Agh! Why won't it start!"

Hiro then takes out the keys, and gets off the scooter. He checks the exhaust pipes, where he discovers that some of Nega-Globby's goo was stuck on the pipe.

“Giving your bike a rocket booster is not a good idea.” Nega-Globby, returning from his hiding spot, told him.

"Now I have to fix the exhaust pipe.." He muttered, “Looks Like I’m missing today’s internship.”

"The time when he caused a scene at the diner.." Rishi said,

"And the time where I was very close to getting my price but-" Karmi added.

"HE TOOK IT! And we lost.." Regina concluded.

"Listen Aiko, you have to understand that Globby is very entitled and arrogant." Fred pleaded. "Like, most of the time. And I bet 100 percent that he will never ever change!"

"Guys! Guys! Trust me! I'm sure he will change." Aiko said as she stood up from her chair. "As I said, time is gold..."

As Aiko left, the others exchanged worried and concerned looks.

Time flew by, and all classes ended. Hiro was in his lab, working on a new suit. The suit color is blue and it's a little darker than Fred. According to a sketch, the suit comes with Nano-receptors, which was invented by Karmi. And it came with a couple of syringes and ampoules.

"Hey Hiro!" Aiko greeted as she and Karmi entered the lab, prompting Hiro to hide what he was working on. "Are you hiding something?"

"What? No! It's just a surprise project." Hiro lied, much to his friend's suspicion.

"I bet a hundred dollars that it's definitely about me!" Karmi guessed, causing Hiro to blush.

"Hiro, Aiko. Your internship starts in an hour." Baymax, who was already packed in his case, said.

"Oh yeah! I better go!" Hiro said as he got his backpack and ran off. “Thanks for the reminder!”

"Same thing with me!" Aiko said as she followed Hiro out of the lab.

"I'm alone." Karmi said in relief. "Now, I wonder what Hiro is-"

However, she was forced to hide as she heard Hiro's footsteps.

"Almost forgot about you Baymax!" He said. "Very sorry!"

"It's okay." Baymax replied, before Hiro took him out of his lab.

As the coast was clear, Karmi came out from her hiding spot and looked at the suit.

"For me?!" She gasped in excitement, and blushed. “Lab lady canon! Lab Lady canon!”

She exits the lab, running across the hallway.

The Streets.... 

After an argument, Nega-Globby is kicked out of the comic shop.

"Do you think I care? No!" Richardson said as he lured Nega-Globby out of the comic shop. "So go away!"

"Hey! But we haven't even settled this!" Nega-Globby exclaimed as he banged on the door.

Just then, his eyes turned to Miss Yvie, who was holding her phone in her right hand while embracing her grocery bags using her left arm.

"Don't worry, Professor Granville." She said, "I have the groceries. I just don't know where you're parked-..."

"Not so fast, young lady." Nega-Globby said, snatching the groceries from Yvie's hands.

"HEY!!!!" Yvie screamed from the top of her lungs as she was forced to stop on her tracks. "DO YOU THINK YOU COULD BOLDLY SNATCH ALL MY GROCERIES?!?!?!"

"I'm SO sorry, Madam." Nega-Globby said. 

“Put those bags down.” Yvie commanded, prompting the doppelganger to place the groceries on the ground.

"Well, I took those bags away because you don't know how to hold it the right way." Globby then explained.

"But-"

"NO BUTS!" He said, before he left off.

Just then, his eyes turned to Hiro’s colleagues, Angie and Eva.

"Sad to say this Eva, but I won't be attending this sleepover." The short haired girl said. "I'm only allowed to go outside every morning and afternoon. That includes our internship."

"It's okay Angie. I get it. I guess they're just worried because it might be dangerous." Eva replied. "But I understand."

"Well, when we get to Krei Tech, I will just focus on-"

Angie’s words suddenly trailed off when Nega-Globby got into their way.

"WOAH!!" Both of the girls gasped.

"An advice: If you want to announce your private plans, then do it somewhere." He said. "Maybe try doing it in a secluded area next time."

"Hey! Do you know what the heck you're doing-?" Angie angrily said, “Mind your own business!”

"Aha! That's what you get for trying to harass a civilized and intelligent monster." Nega-globby answered back, causing tears to form on Angie's eyes. Eva then wrapped Angie into a hug and said to Nega-Globby,

"Hey! Don't you ever talk to my best friend and colleague like that! Not to mention me being the mayor's daughter."

On Professor Granville's end, she was inside her car, watching all the drama unfold.

"Unbelievable." She said, dismayed.

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology....

On Rishi’s end, he was playing chess with Regina.

"Aha! Checkmate." Rishi said as he hit Regina's king, winning a game of chess.

"Aw come on, Rish! You know that your opponent hasn't won a single game of chess.." Regina deadpanned.

Just then, Karmi comes into the lab with excitement.

"Hey guys!!! Hiro's almost done with my suit!" She exclaimed, with Rishi and Regina staring at her.

"Should we tell her about making a noise at the lab?" Rishi whispered.

"Or her shouting out the heroes' identities?" Regina does the same.

"Nah.." Both decided against lecturing their friend.

"Oh! I'm so sorry! Glad we're the only ones here." Karmi said. "But just don't tell Hiro about it."

"Of course. If it's a secret, our lips are sealed!" Regina accepted the apology, and so did Rishi.

"So, how's everyone feeling about Aiko?" Rishi asked.

"I was about to say that.” Karmi said, until she heard a beep from Rishi’s laptop.

Rishi walked up to his laptop and opened his message box.

"Hold on guys.. Fred’s got a new message for us in The Cord" Rishi muttered as he looked at his laptop, which displayed all the messages on the Big Hero 6 and their allies' server. [2]

Allies of the Big Heroverse

Fredzilla: EMERGENCY MEETING! NOW!! PLEASE BE THERE ASAP!!!

"Oh no.."

Big Hero 6 Base....

"What's up? Lemme guess, that "Nega-Globby" guy did a scenario, right?" Rishi muttered as he, Karmi, and Regina all entered the conference room altogether. 

Fred has called the other heroes in but the only ones who responded were them, Roddy Blair, Mini-Max, and Globby.

"Yes." The others replied in unison.

"This is so unimaginable! I thought they would stay as friends forever." Globby said. "Not only during the summer."

"Their friendship basically reminds me of mine and Honey's friendship." Regina said. "Forgot to share this but, I don't blame her for what happened."

"I can't believe this is happening...." Karmi muttered as she paced around the room. "I or let's just hope that this is not Obake trying to lure us into a trap."

"It is not Obake!" Mini-Max said. "He's been like that since summer."

"Yeah. He also messed up my painting!" Roddy exclaimed. "Look! Because of that, I had to repaint all of these over and over again!" He added, pointing to the base's snack bar.

"Look guys. We need to tell my sister that there is no way Nega-Globby could-" Regina was about to say it, but as she was about to complete her words, Hiro, Baymax, and Aiko entered the room.

"Heya! Just finished our internship!" Aiko greeted while Hiro took a seat on a chair. "Also, I wish Nata could join SFIT someday..."

"Change.." Regina finally completed her sentence.

"Woah! What are you guys talking about?" Aiko asked.

"We're talking about Nega-Globby." Globby replied.

“And what is it about?” Hiro asked.

"He has not just returned, but started lecturing other people!" Fred explained.

"Including Miss Yvie.." Karmi muttered.

"And our colleagues!” Hiro added. "Not to mention Angie being unable to process what he said earlier."

"Well, I'm sure he could change!" Aiko said. "He just needs some time-"

Just then, everyone heard the doorbell ring.

“Ugh.. Roddy, why didn’t you tell us about the base having a doorbell?” Fred asked.

“It was meant to be a surprise.” Roddy answered, before he stood up from his seat.

Everyone else did the same thing and rushed to the entrance, where Hiro opened the door.

"Oh great.." Roddy muttered.

The person, or glob, behind the door, was none other than Nega-Globby, who was carrying several bags and said,

"I know you guys hate me here but can I stay inside this old factory?"

"Ah great. He's called our base an old factory, again!" Fred exclaimed.

"For the last time, this factory may be old, but it is our secret base!" Mini-Max exclaimed, angrily, before diving into Nega-Globby. But his dive did not go as planned.

"Sorry if my slime destroyed your little toy, beanbag!" Nega-Globy said, much to Fred's dismay.

"Ugh..." Fred muttered.

"See Roomie. I told you he won't make a change." Rishi said.

"Why?" Aiko asked.

"He doesn't stand a chance!" Regina exclaimed to her sister.

"HEY! That is not how you treat your guests!" Aiko lashed out against everyone else. "Even though he might not change, he still needs a home or place to stay!"

Everyone thought of kicking Nega-Globby out of the base, but in the end. They got into a consensus.

"Okay Aiko.. We'll allow him to stay. But in one condition," Hiro said. "someone has to look after him."

Moments later, the heroes, their allies and Nega-Globby were all standing in front of a vacant hangar, with Fred opening the door with a push of a button.

"This is where he would stay." Hiro said. "Now, who's going to look after him?"

"I'll do it!" Aiko exclaimed.

"Wait- Are you sure?" Regina wondered. "Sister, if you do look after him, please be safe."

"We're so worried about you." Karmi added. "Just like how you and Rishi were worried about Regina."

"Don't worry guys, I got this." Aiko told everyone else.

"Well, I'm glad that's settled." Roddy said. "Well, we better go now."

"Same." Hiro said. "Aunt Cass might be very worried about me."

"Goodbye for now!" Karmi said, before she walked out.

"If you need us, we're a phone call away!" Regina chorused, before she and Rishi followed the others out of the base.

"Bye guys." Aiko said, with concern, before she leaned against the wall.

"Question. Is this place built to be so boring? Cause it looks so empty here." Nega-globby asked Aiko, who was looking at her purse.

"Well, I can fix that!" She exclaimed, before opening her purse.

However, Nega-Globby felt uncertain.

"You purse. Tch! I don't think there's something that could make this place look more fun-" Nega-globby said, before peeking at the contents of the purse, but was interrupted when Aiko's hand covered the opening. "Hey I wanna see!"

"Wait as I demonstrate it." Aiko replied, before she took out a pair of gloves, wearing it over her hands.

Afterwards, she puts her right hand inside her purse, pulling out a small and tiny couch, much to Nega-Globby's dismay.

"A small couch. I don't think our buts will fit.." Nega-Globby muttered.

"Wait and see." Aiko said, before placing the couch on the ground. She taps the couch with her pinky finger, to which the couch grows to a much bigger size. "Ta-da!"

"Ooh! Now that looks more fun." Nega-Globby said. "I take it back, but what exactly is in your purse?" He asked, peeking on the purse's opening. 

The opening was a purple void that looked like exactly the dimension Hiro and Baymax once entered on their first day as heroes.

"Why is the inside like that?!" He asked.

"Well, it may look exactly like a purse, but much more." Aiko explained. "This is my newest invention: A Nano-Dex purse!” She added, before pulling out more stuff. Ranging from a digital clock, to a bookshelf that features almost a lot of books to read. She also pulls out a sleeping mat from it.

"Today is a very tiring day.." Aiko muttered as she yawned and closed the purse. "We better get some sleep."

As the two went to bed, night turned to day. And the alarm clock from Aiko's cell phone started blaring.

"Good morning Nega-Globby-" She greeted, before she looked around. Her bed was full of Nega-Globby's goo, and so was her body. Not to mention her hair. "Why does it look so messy here?"

"Huh.. It's morning already.. What a nice dream." Nega-Globby said. "Dunno what caused all my slime to leak." He added, before he left. 

Aiko then followed Nega-Globby outside and asked him,

"Are you going to say something about the slime on my head?!?!?!?"

"Please consider that it's normal for us globs to leak slime on our sleep." Nega-Globby stopped on his tracks, before walking again, giving Aiko a thought.

"Maybe the others are right. Like, sort of right about his behavior." She spoke to herself. "But who knows. Maybe he could change someday."

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology....

As Fred, Rishi and Regina were doing their own stuff, Aiko entered the lab, looking very tired.

"Oh hi, Screenfiend!" Fred greeted her. "Also, what happened to you.?"

"Oh! Please don't say something about my hair!" Aiko muttered in distress. "It all happened last night and I'm still trying to get it out of my head-"

"Girl, please.. I'm sure we don't have anything about your slimy hair.." Rishi said. "Or maybe Regina has. She tends to make puns about anyone's hair."

However, his words trailed off when he saw Regina step out of her and stepped into his.

"I AM NOT THAT PERSON YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT RICOCHET!" She exclaimed. "Oops. Sorry."

Just then, Karmi entered the lab.

"Hey Aiko. How's last night?" Karmi asked as she approached her. "Also, what happened to your-"

"It's a very long story." Rishi said,

"Last night?! LAST NIGHT?! IT WAS VERY OBNOXIOUS!" Aiko exclaimed. "NOT TO MENTION THAT INDIGO VERSION OF GLOBBY! HE KEEPS ON SNORING, AND SNORING, AND SNORING-"

Fred stood up from his chair and tried to calm his friend down, telling her,

"We feel you Aiko, we feel ya. Maybe a game of snakes and ladders would do. It serves as a way for me to slip someone else's mind for somethings that happened."

"Thanks Freddie.." Aiko muttered. "But I guess you guys were right about his behavior. But come on, I'm still sure he could change."

Big Hero 6 Base....

"I take it back. He is still the same." She muttered, sitting on one of the conference room's chairs. Nega-Globby was sitting on the table, instead.

"Hey. At least anyone has their own way to sit down." Nega-Globby told Aiko.

"But that's not the norm. You mean the base's chairs are useless?!" Aiko complained. "I'm telling Hiro."

"Who cares? I mean, to tell you the truth, the manga you're reading DOES NOT AND WILL NEVER MAKE SENSE!" He debated, taking the book out of Aiko's hands, much to her dismay.

Told you Aiko, the others are right. She thought.

"I will be selling this on Cartee. I hope you find some other piece of media that makes sense."  Nega-Globby said as he stood up from his chair, leaving with the book in his hands.

"Hey! Give me back my book!" Aiko exclaimed as she chased Nega-Globby. “I was almost done with chapter forty-eight!”

The Streets….

As she ran, Aiko looked at her phone, which displayed Nega-Globby’s exact location. Throughout the way, she passed by Nata, who was walking to the entrance of “Torii Gate High School” station, which is a part of the city’s Torii Gate line. Across the street, she sees Atlas, who was seated in his parked car, and Wasabi, who drove by.

“Wherever you are, Nega-Globby,” Aiko exclaimed, “I’m gonna find you and get that book back!”

“Are you talking about Globby’s impostor who just passed by?” Chief Cruz, who was leaning against his police car, asked.

“Mhm.”

“I think I saw him run towards that way.” Chief Cruz said, pointing to the right side of the street.

All of a sudden, a cable car, that has Nega-Globby riding on it, passes by.

“I missed it!” Aiko exclaimed, “I better look for him. Please tell the others!”

“Okay!” Chief Cruz said, before Aiko took another Cable Car. As for him, he entered his car and dialed the other officers.

A couple of cable car rides later, Aiko finally arrives at Muirahara Woods. where she sees Nega-Globby running. 

“Here?” She muttered, “Isn’t this the place where no one comes out alive?”

Reluctant, she enters the forest. As she ran, she snuck up to him, surprising him.

“Found you!” She exclaimed, “And my manga!”

“Hey! Give it back!” Nega-Globby exclaimed as Aiko snatched the book out of his hands.

As they were fighting, Ned Ludd was watching from his treehouse, with Bessie by his side.

“Why are there earthlings in the forest..” He muttered, before walking towards a sleeping Bessie, who was cuddling her cubs. “Bessie..”

Just then, Bessie has woken up.

“I know it is your bedtime, but listen.” He said to her, “A little girl is invading the forest, with a slime monster by her side.”

Bessie hissed, angrily.

“If you’re interested, please take them here.” As Ned said that, Bessie gave him a hug, before leaping into the forest.

“Listen, NG.” Aiko pleaded for the glob to listen, but he didn’t.

“FOR THE LAST TIME, MY NAME IS NEGA-GLOBBY!” Nega-Globby snapped at Aiko, “I DON’T GO BY-”

His words faded when he and Aiko suddenly heard a roar coming from Bessie.

Big Hero 6 Base….

On Hiro’s end, he entered the conference room, only to find Rishi standing, confused.

“Rishi?” He asked his protege, “Whatcha doing here?”

“I dunno, Hiro.” Rishi replied, “For some reason, Aiko isn't home at our dorm..”

Just then, Honey’s face started appearing on the screen and said,

“Hey guys! Have you seen Aiko? Regina has been sending me messages about her.”

“No.” Baymax said.

“I have the same question, girl.” Roddy entered the room.

“Also, speaking of Regina, I don’t feel comfortable revealing my secret identity in front of her.” Honey said, “She might get angry at me. We just restored our friendship, right?

Just then, Chief Cruz enters the room and told the group,

“Aiko told me about looking for Nega-Globby in the city.”

Realizing that their friends might be in danger, they have to do something.

Muirahara Woods….

Just then, Bessie crawls towards Aiko and Nega-Globby. She fires a beam towards the two of them.

“Stand back!” Nega-Globby exclaimed to Aiko as he protected her from the impact.

However, his substance wasn’t able to protect Aiko from the beam. Her gloves aren’t working, and so are her tags. The two were forced to run when Bessie jumped into their way, hitting them with her beam as they ran. That hit sent them flying, but Nega-Globby managed to cushion their fall.

“Phew,” Aiko muttered, “..that was close.”

“Yeah.” But Nega-Globby was still perplexed about what happened.

“We need to get out of here-” Aiko’s words trailed off when she noticed something, “NO!”

“What?”

“My left glove is missing! And my right is not working!” Aiko started to panic, “And my tags, they’re not working!”

Big Hero 6 Base….

Meanwhile, Karmi is called into Hiro’s Hangar, which doubles as his lab.

“What’s the matter, Big Hiro?” She asked, “Why did you call me here minutes before the curfew?”

“Aiko.” Hiro spoke, “She’s missing. Rishi filled me in earlier.”

“Really?”

“Yup. And we’re going to look for her.” He added, giving Karmi her suit. “Been working on this for you.”

With excitement, Karmi takes the armor from his hands and said to him,

“Is Lab Lady going to be canon?

Hiro nodded at her response, causing her to run around in circles. He then tells her,

“Well, you better suit up. As for me,  I have a plan.”

Muirahara Woods….

“Listen, panicking won’t get us out of here.” Nega-Globby told Aiko, who was pacing. “Let’s maybe think of a plan and-”

“I DON’T CARE!” Aiko shouted at him, “YOU ARE THE ONE WHO IS RESPONSIBLE WITH GETTING US STUCK HERE!”

Although they thought Bessie got their attention, she actually left them alone.

“That was way too close..” Nega-Globby muttered, before his glance turned to Aiko, who leaned on the tree.

“I don’t think we’re getting out of these woods alive.” Aiko muttered, choosing her eyes as she cried, accepting her fate.

As for Nega-Globby, he knew what to do.

Big Hero 6 Base….

Unbeknownst to them, Hiro, Baymax, Chief Cruz and Karmi have a plan to look for them.

“I could call myself Lab Lady!” Karmi exclaimed as she wore her armor. “With this suit of course!”

Meanwhile, Hiro gave the others a call.

“Any sign of them?” He asked.

“No sign of ScreenFriend..” Fred muttered as he searched near Krei Tech.

“I couldn’t find her either.” Honey said as she searched near SFIT Station from the Red Line.

“I hope they’re okay..” Karmi muttered.

Muirahara Woods….

What happened next was a blur. Aiko wakes up, finding herself in a makeshift tent Nega-Globby built using wood, rocks, leaves and mud. Her eyes turned to Nega-Globby, who was in a fireplace, cooking food using nuts he gathered from collecting all the materials needed to make the tent.

As for Wasabi, his car came to a stop when his eyes turned to one of Aiko’s gloves. He exits the car to take a look.

“Guys.. I think I found Aiko’s glove.” He told the others using his intercom, before his eyes turned to the entrance of the woods. “They must’ve gone through the woods!”

Big Hero 6 Base….

“THE WOODS?” Chief Cruz exclaimed.

“Almost anyone who steps into that forest never comes back,” Karmi said, worried. “..alive.”

“Even more, Ned Ludd.” The chief said as he typed on the keyboard.

“You know him?” Hiro muttered.

“He is a wanted person now..” Chief Cruz replied, looking at a wanted poster that had his face, “Me and the police force had been looking for him since last summer…”

Muirahara Woods….

A few moments later, Hiro and Baymax, clad in their ultra armor, landed in front of the woods with Karmi by their side. Chief Cruz also arrived, driving his car.

“Baymax, stay here with Chief Cruz.” Hiro told Baymax as he and Karmi got off. “You’ll be safe here.”

“Affirmative.” Baymax replied.

“Also, if you guys run into Ned Ludd, tell me.” Chief Cruz said, “I’ll call the rest of the force. Stay safe!”

“We’ll tell you using our intercoms.” Hiro replied using his intercom as he and Karmi ran. “Uh oh.”

However, they bumped into Ned, who was wielding his staff.

“So you two dared to step into the woods without telling me, huh?” He hissed.

“No, we’re not here to cause harm!” Hiro pleaded. “We’re just here to look for our friends!”

“Friends…” Ned muttered, wickedly. “Well, if you two are going to step into the woods, then you have to go through me!”

Meanwhile, Nega-Globby, having finished cooking food, walked towards Aiko, who was shaking with fear.

“Here. Some water could help us survive in the woods.” He said, holding a makeshift tray with the food. It included a makeshift bowl, filled with roasted walnuts, and a makeshift cup, filled with water. “Trust me, I filtered it out.”

“Thanks.” Aiko replied, taking a sip of water.

“I also made some roasted walnuts.” Nega-Globby added as Aiko took a bite of one of the nuts.

“Thanks again. And I just want to say, I’m sorry for how I acted towards you earlier.” She said as tears dropped from her eyes. “It’s just that everyone else on the team doubted that you wouldn’t change. And I know that you will change. They just didn’t believe me.”

As Nega-Globby pulled Aiko into a hug, he knew what to tell her.

“Maybe it’s time for you to know the truth.” He told her. “How I acted, basically.”

“What is it about?”

“It’s this synthetic brain Pink Girl gave me.” Nega-Globby said, “When Beanie Boy said that I was acting rude, that must be how I picked my personality..” He explained, “I remember being made from-”

“The evil version of Liv Amara, Diane Amara!” Aiko completed, “I know, thanks to the news!” She chorused.

“I didn’t know I was a trend..” Nega-Globby muttered.

Just then, the two heard a blast, indicating Bessie’s absence.

“Speaking of synthetic brains..” Aiko muttered, getting an idea.

As they walked towards Bessie’s location, they found Hiro and Karmi, trying to take down Ned Ludd while evading Bessie’s attack. Hiro was using his magnetic wires to dodge every blast Bessie sent him while Karmi, using a syringe that looked like a grappling hook, did the same thing.

“It’s them!” Nega-Globby exclaimed. “I knew that we’re gonna be saved!”

“It's not just that. I’m thinking of ambushing that bear-” Aiko muttered, until Bessie started approaching them. “WATCH OUT!”

As Aiko dragged Nega-Globby out of Bessie’s way, her eyes turned to two smaller logs. It looked similar to the metal rods she and her friends used to help Big Hero 6 escape Obake. She knew what to do.

“I’d say we fight alongside them while you tame that creepy bear.” She said as she looked at Nega-Globby, who felt uncertain. “Look, I know it’s-”

“A brilliant idea!” Nega-Globby swooped Aiko onto his left arm, utilizing his right arm to get the wooden logs for Aiko to use.

“You trusted me?” Aiko asked as received the logs.

“Yup. Also, I just wanted to say that I’m sorry for what I said earlier..” Nega-Globby replied as he ran towards Bessie. “It’s just that I wanted things to go well, that I didn’t know I was being too entitled back there.”

Aiko looked at him in concern and worry.

“It’s okay. Apology accepted for me.” She said, “As for the others, I don’t know.”

“It’s Morphine time!” Karmi exclaimed as she pulled out a syringe that is labeled as Morphine, a substance that could cause hallucinations. She aimed it towards the bear, but she missed. “Aw, come on!”

Just then, the bear suddenly launches herself towards Karmi.

“Watch out!” Hiro exclaimed as he swung himself to save Karmi using his wires.

“Phew! That was close!” Karmi was relieved, but the bear was closing into the two heroes. Until all of a sudden.

“Take that!” Nega-Globby, morphed into a butterfly, flew towards the bear.

“Nega, now!” Aiko, welding two logs, exclaimed as she blocked the bear’s attack! 

Nega-Globby lets go of the bear, performing a ritual as Hiro and Karmi watch.

“Is that a bear-taming ritual?” Karmi asked.

“I think so..” Hiro muttered, “It must be that they’re helping us. I have an idea!” He said as he and Karmi flew using their respective weapons. 

Hiro manages to strangle Ned using his lashes while Karmi successfully injected Morphine onto him.

“Success!” Karmi exclaimed.

As for Bessie, she is put to sleep by Nega-Globby’s ritual.

“It worked!” Aiko celebrated while hugging Nega-Globby. “We did it!”

A few moments later, Hiro, Karmi, Aiko and Nega-Globby, joined by the other heroes, watched as Bessie was loaded into a truck by the police, while Chief Cruz loaded Ned, in handcuffs, into the police car.

“What a way to end the day,” Fred said, looking at Aiko and Nega-Globby. “...thanks to the both of you.”

“Yeah. And I just wanted to say sorry for lashing out in front of you guys earlier.” Aiko replied, “I guess I was trying so hard to prove that Nega-Globby changed and in my opinion, he changed a bit.”

“Look Aiko, we’re sorry for doubting you.” Hiro told her, “His actions mattered more than words for us.”

“And based on what happened today, I think he did change.” Wasabi added, looking at Nega-Globby.

Big Hero 6 Base….

The next day, Hiro, Rishi, Miss Yvie and Professor Granville were talking in the conference room. Hiro was filling in the latter two about what happened the previous night.

“So that means he’s not going to swipe groceries out of my hands, huh?” Miss Yvie asked, nervously.

“Mhm.” Hiro nodded.

“And as I said before, he is welcome to visit you and Miss Watanabe, Mister Patel.” Professor Granville told Rishi.

“I’m glad you accepted him.” Rishi thanked Professor Granville.

Just then, Honey and Nega-Globby entered the room.

“Hey guys!” Globby greeted the four, “Just heard the news about Ned being taken to jail.” He then said, “Also, how’s Nega?”

“About him.” Hiro told him, “Honey, how’s his synthetic brain?”

“Good as new!” Honey replied.

Speaking of Nega-Globby, he is outside the hangar where he stayed with Aiko before.

“Hey Negs!” Regina said to him as she exited the hangar. “Your home’s ready!”

Regina let Nega-Globby into the hangar, filled with indigo decorations and comics. It also has a sign that states Nega-Globby’s Zone.

“That’s beautiful..” He said, “I like it. Isn’t this the exact same area I stayed at?”

“Yup. Now remodeled as your home!” Aiko replied, “Also, if you want to leave, just press this button.” She added as she pressed on a button, opening the exit to the outside.

“That’s cool!” Nega-Globby complimented, “And from now on, you can call me Nega. Consider me as a friend of yours, and a fellow member of the Ally-Verse.”

Aiko chucked at the response and said,

“It’s the Allies of the Big Heroverse to you.”

Nega was able to reform, after all.

Chapter Text

It was very quiet in the base, with only Nega in his hangar. Just then, a sound of a portal opening can be heard in the hangar entrance.

“Made it!” Regina exclaimed as she and Aiko teleported to the base using the latter’s portal tags, “I’m glad your portal tags could take us almost everywhere, sis.”

“Thanks, dear sister!” Aiko then replied. “Oh I can't take this anymore!” She then exclaimed.

Aiko then checked on her purse and noticed something.

“I’m so excited about the sleepover that I forgot to bring some of my favorite tags just in case something happens.”

However, Hangar-Max suddenly powers on and said,

“Don’t worry, Aiko. At least Roddy and Hiro designed this place to be secure with SecuriMax.”

“I guess so..” Aiko then muttered.

Just then, the sisters heard a honk of a horn coming from a light blue vehicle. It is an SUV.

“Well, it looks like our beloved chief and his daughter just arrived.” Regina then said.

The car comes to a stop right after parking in the parking hangars. Chief Cruz and Megan exit the vehicle.

“Aw come on!” Megan exclaimed as she and her dad opened the trunk.

“I knew you sisters would arrive first..” The chief then muttered.

“Well, it would not be the same without her portal tags.” Regina then pointed out.

Out of nowhere, the sound of a roaring motor engine can be heard.

“What was that?” Aiko gasped as she heard the motor engine rev.

“I think it’s Hiro and Baymax.” Chief Cruz replied, “It means they’re here.”

“Hiro always goes here with his scooter.” Megan added, “Not to mention how far the Yellow Line is from the base.”

The Cruzes were right. Hiro and Rishi, with Baymax docked into his charging port, arrived on the former’s scooter.

“Woah!” Megan then exclaimed as the scooter drove by, parking into Hiro’s hangar.

“That’s some intense maneuvering back there.” Chief Cruz then said, “If I were the driver of that scooter, then I would crash right into it.”

In Hiro’s hangar, Hiro finally turns off the scooter.

“That was some nice driving, Big Hiro!” Rishi complimented as he took off his helmet, “But would you please take it easy?! This is not a racing track.”

“Sorry if it was too much!” Hiro then replied as he helped Baymax out of his charging port. “Just wanted to try that out.”

Seconds later, Honey Lemon, driving her car to the hangar, arrives, with Fred, Karmi and Gogo in tow. And in no time, Nega, who was wearing a pink rose hat and a rainbow bowtie, exits from his hangar and said, [1]

“So ready for this sleepover. So, where are the others at?”

“Hey guys.” Honey greeted as she and the others exited the car. “Sorry to tell you this but Globby and Olivia went to another city.”

Nega walks up to them and replied,

“I guess it's the Newnila Comic Con you’re talking about, Honey Lemon.”

“Yup.” Honey responded, sheepishly.

“Sorry to tell you guys, but Wasabi told me that he won’t be appearing on this special occasion.” Hangar-max reminded as the heroes and allies talked to each other. “Same is for Professor Granville and Miss Yvie, but the three promised to appear as early as possible!”

“We understand.” Hiro replied to the AI, “Actually, Wasabi told me about this beforehand.”

“And when I visited the library, Miss Yvie told me about the meeting.” Regina revealed as she helped Honey Lemon with her items.

“Oh! And Heathcliff is so busy.” Fred then added, “Means he won’t make it. Sorry Rishi.”

“It’s okay, Fred.” Rishi then replied.

“Everyone is complete.” Baymax then said to the group, “And Sim-Max is ready.”

“I can’t believe this..” Fred then muttered as he and everyone else walked towards Sim-Max. “Our very first sleepover as a team!”

“And allies too.” Aiko added, “You almost forgot about us.”

“Sorry, I'm just too excited.”

Moments later, everyone gathered at Sim-Max for the sleepover, with Fred pulling out a spinning wheel from his bag. It has the names of each attendee pasted there.

“Okay, gonna remove him, her, her..” Fred muttered as he removed the names of the absent members from the board. “There!”

Karmi’s eyes turned to Fred, who looked very excited.

“Looks like someone is ready for truth and dare,” She then said, “this girl, right here!” She then exclaimed, pointing at herself.

Fred spins the wheel, with the arrow landing at Aiko, much to her dismay.

“Okay. Truth, here we go!” Aiko then said, “I have since become a crocheter at the age of seven.”

“SEVEN?!” Rishi exclaimed, curious. “THAT WAS THE AGE WHEN I GRADUATED MIDDLE SCHOOL!”

“What?!” Everyone else was shocked.

“It’s rare for anyone to graduate that early..” Karmi muttered.

“Although that's the age when I started middle school.” Hiro smirked.

Fred spins the wheel, again, landing on his name instead.

"Okay, so here's mine." Fred said, "I kept chewing on my hair for maybe 3 to 4 hours a day.. Or maybe an hour or so."

"Eek!" Aiko said as Regina spits her drink on the floor, "That's what makes your hair smell like..." She continued, "S-saliva..."

"I don't know, Fred, but you need to put those habits away." Chief Cruz said.

"You’re right.." Fred said, before getting an idea. "Y'know what. Topic change: Let's talk about what we all do whenever we are in the woods." He said, before changing the atmosphere from the Torii Gate Park, to Muirahara woods.

The room was in complete silence, only for the silence to be broken by Aiko.

"No one is going there." She said, slamming her hands on the floor. "Well, rarely. Most people who go there, would get lost and never come back."

"I do bird watching." Gogo answered.

"Well, me and Aiko reconciled there.." Nega-Globby said as he hugged Aiko.

"Wait a minute?" Karmi interrupted as she was about to eat a sandwich. "You and Nega-Globby are now friends?"

"Yup." Aiko replied to her friend, "It is a very long story."

"Anyone else?" Fred asked.

"Well we were stranded there." Chief Cruz revealed. "But only Hiro and I, 2 times."

"Oh my gosh!" Rishi said as he placed his drink on the floor. "When?"

"Well, the first time was when I fell into the woods while chasing Hiro." Chief Cruz answered. "That was before I became one of your allies." He added. "Hiro, speaking of that, I guess you and Baymax crash landed there. Am I right?"

"You guessed it." Hiro answered, "We fell after Bessie shutted down our tech."

"That happened recently, right?" Rishi asked, to which Hiro nodded his head sideways.

"Well. That was before summer." Chief Cruz said, "I can't believe I judged heroes that way."

"Right before we all became allies???" Aiko said. The heroes nodded, "Right.."

"Yeah. He declared us fugitives that time." Gogo added.

"But the second and most recent one was like a week ago." Hiro added.

"WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?" The others exclaimed, worried.

"You have been keeping secrets, chief." Nega said. "Tell us more."

“Yeah dudes.” Rishi then said, “Pretend that we’re your job interviewers.”

"Well, let me tell you all what happened...."

It was an afternoon at Krei Tech, where the Cruz family’s SUV is parked in the parking lot. Hiro was already seated in the passenger's side, while Chief Cruz was preparing all the goodies needed for them to last during the trip.

"Well, it seems we're ready." Chief Cruz muttered as he closed the trunk, before getting onto the driver’s seat.

Hiro’s eyes suddenly turned to his colleagues, who had exited the building. Amongst them, only Aiko and Rosie weren’t involved, as Rosie hadn't applied during that time, while Aiko was attending her classes.

“Hey guys.” He then opened the windows on his side.

“Hey Hiro.” Angie then replied just as Atlas approached the SUV.

“We just wanted to tell you guys something before you both go onto your journey.” Atlas then told the two, “That one thing we wanted to say is for you guys to be careful out there.”

“Yeah!” Caleb then said, “Cause almost anyone who goes there does not get out alive or unharmed.”

“Take me as an example.” Nolan then explained, “I once got lost there, and I lost almost all stamina. That’s when I thought of Susanoo no Mikoto.”

Chief Cruz was very confused and asked,

“Who’s Susanoo no Mikoto?”

“He is the god of resiliency.” Nolan replied, “Now, good luck out there, and be careful!”

“We’re counting on both of you for Krei Park’s newest branch!” Krei then exclaimed just as Nata ran outside.

“I hope I was on time!” She panted, “Me and my sister were on a video call.”

“You’re on time, Nata.” Eva then replied, looking at the SUV as it left the office.

As the SUV drove by the city, Hiro and Chief Cruz were recalling how they wound up into the woods.

“Well, it’s been four-ish months since we ended up here..” Hiro said.

“”Yeah. And it’s been three months since you heroes were out of hiding.” Chief Cruz added, “I still couldn’t believe how I went too far into arresting you guys. If I didn’t have a grudge against superheroes, then Wasabi’s car wouldn’t end up in the bay.”

“It’s okay, Chief. We all forgive you for what you did.” Hiro then responded just as the car entered the woods.

“I don’t know, Chief..” Hiro muttered, “If we get stuck there, then those goods might not be enough..”

“Don’t worry, Hiro.” Chief Cruz told him, “I graduated from Fire Scout Camp when I was thirteen.”

“Really?” Hiro was curious, “I think Mr. Krei told me about graduating at that camp before..”

“Yup. Me and Allistair were roommates.” Chief Cruz then replied as the car entered the woods. “To be honest, at first, we weren’t used to each other but overtime, I loved working with him.”

Just then, the engine shutted off, bringing the car to a stop.

“W-why did we stop?” Hiro said, concerned. “I thought Bessie had been taken away by the Wildlife Control.”

“I don’t know. Better check the engine.” Chief Cruz replied as he opened the hood and exited the car. “Also, if you don’t mind, could you please hop onto the driver’s seat. That way you could start the car while I find the problem.”

“Okay.. I wonder what the others are up to.” Hiro muttered as he hopped onto the driver’s seat. “I mean, I learned how to drive my brother’s scooter since I was 13, now I’m driving it myself..”

“WAIT WHAT?!” Rishi exclaimed in shock, “You drove that SUV? I didn’t know you could do that…”

“No!” Hiro then replied nervously, “I sat there so I could help start the car up, not drive it. I don’t even have my driver’s license!”

“Then how were you-” Karmi was about to ask about him driving a scooter, but Baymax spoke up and said,

“It’s not that illegal to drive a moped at age fifteen.”

“Yup. If I’m not mistaken, he actually applied for a motorcycle license. It's just that Hiro could only operate a scooter and bike. Not a motorcycle like Gogo’s.” Chief Cruz added, “That does not mean anyone under the age of sixteen cannot drive a vehicle like that. I mean, he is the best driver.” [2]

Hiro winked at the Chief’s response.

“Hey sis.” Regina asked Aiko, who was taking a sip from her drink.

“Yes?” The younger sister then replied.

“Were you aware about them heading to the woods for that?” Regina then asked, “I mean, you had to appear late because of your club activity, right?”

“Yup.” Aiko then replied with a thumbs up, “I found out because of a colleague of ours.”

Thirty minutes after Hiro and Chief Cruz leave for the woods, Aiko arrives at Krei Tech, walking into the cubicles.

“Hey guys!” She asked the colleagues, “Has anyone seen Hiro?”

“He is on internship duty.” Nata then replied, “He joined Chief Cruz on a trip to the woods, basically.”

“Oh..” Aiko then muttered, “Why did they go there? I mean, what internship duty is he attending to?”

“Oh. They’re looking for a suitable place to construct the newest branch of Krei Park.” Ciel then replied.

Just then, Atlas pulls out a map from his drawer.

“Speaking of Krei Park..” He then said, “Is anyone interested in my idea for a nearby X-Press station near Muirahara Woods?”

At the woods, Hiro and Chief Cruz were still trying to start their car.

“Hiro, can you try starting the car again?” Chief Cruz then instructed Hiro.

Hiro turned the keys of the vehicle, only for the engine to make a clicking sound, much to his dismay.

“No hope at all..” He then muttered before exiting the car. “I have a feeling that it must be a dead battery..”

“I’m not a mechanic either. I’m the chief of police, who nearly got demoted to just a pure officer because of my actions.” Chief Cruz then muttered as he leaned on the car’s door. “Whelp, it looks like we’re walking..”

“Walking? But we’d be getting lost at that point.” Hiro then said to the chief.

“It’s the only way.” Chief Cruz replied, “And the only way to call our friends is by the payphone in the middle of the woods.”

“Payphone? I didn’t know there was a payphone…”

“Yeah. The payphone the previous mayor constructed, making it the dumbest decision.” Chief Cruz added.

“Well, let’s go then..” Hiro muttered as he and Chief Cruz began their trek to the middle of the woods. “Glad Ned wouldn’t be a bother to us.”

“Yeah. We finally got him arrested after months of searching.” Chief Cruz was relieved. “He was even the cause of the Hibagon legend, right?”

“I knew it.”

As for Hiro’s colleagues, they were gathered in the meeting room, where Atlas showed them his concept.

“So basically, the station will be a part of the Yellow Line, also known as the X-Press Station.” Atlas explained, with everyone’s eyes on him.

“Really?” Nolan gasped, “I would love a station connected to the woods!”

“Yup.”

“Wait wait! Before you get into that,” Angie then said, “...please tell me of a cool station name!”

“Actually, I do.” Atlas then replied, “Allow me to introduce…”

“Wait, hold on.” Eva then interrupted.

“The Muirahara-Krei Park station, situated in the middle of the woods…”

“We talked about this you promised!” Eva then exclaimed.

“Aka….”

“I DID NOT AGREE TO THIS NAME!” Eva then shouted.

“The Forest Station!” Atlas then exclaimed in excitement as the other colleagues posed while Eva let out a groan.

“Well, that’s settled.” Krei then said.

However, the colleagues’ eyes turned to a worried Aiko.

“Aiko? What’s the hold up?” Rich then asked, “I mean, it is a good idea to construct a station in Muirahara Woods, right?”

“Yeah. But my main worry,” Aiko then replied, in concern. “...is my classmate and friend, Hiro Hamada.”

Everyone gasped because of her realization. Even more, the time was already 5:59.

“Mr. Krei!” Judy then called out, “Aiko’s right.”

“Yeah! Both Hiro and Chief Cruz didn’t update us in the last hour!” Nolan exclaimed, with support from the others.

“They promised us moments before the trip,” Caleb then added, “It’s a really bad idea to send them to the woods.”

“I agree.” Aiko then added, “Hiro promised us that he would arrive at 6:00pm, sharp! Look what time it is now!”

At the same time, the clock struck 6:00. Even more, Eva then gets a call from her mom, who then said,

“Sorry about this call Va-Chan!”

“It’s the mayor!” Miles was glad when Mayor Saito’s voice could be heard.

“I don’t think she could assist us now..” Angie muttered.

“What is it, mom?” Eva then asked.

“You’re friends with citizen Hiro Hamada, right?” Mayor Saito asked on the other line, shocking everyone else.

“SHE KNOWS HIM?” Aiko was even more shocked.

“Yup. I actually interacted with him when he brought Eva back home.” The Mayor told her, “Miss, who are you?”

“She’s Aiko Watanabe.” Eva then replied, “As for Hiro himself, he went to the woods with Chief Cruz. And we’re getting concerned about him at this point.”

“I actually feel you.” The mayor then sighed, “Chief Cruz promised to appear at my office for an important meeting about the villains escaping prison, once again..”

As for Krei, his heart was beating just as his eyes looked at the clock.

“Aiko, you could teleport using portals, right?” He hurriedly asked her.

“Yeah.”

“You have to find them! Now!” Krei then pleaded.

“Okie dokie. But I’m not going alone.” Aiko then replied, looking at the coworkers. “Miles, Caleb and Eva, head to the Mayor’s office! Reassure her that Chief Cruz would come in time.”

“We gotcha, Aiko!” Miles then chorused, “Cause you’re Aikonic.”

“Nolan, Ciel and Angie, head to SFIT’s dormitories.” Aiko then instructed the three, “Tell our friends that our dear Hiro would be fine.”

“Gotchu sis!” Angie then exclaimed as she and the other colleagues left the room.

The only ones left inside the room were Rich, Nata, Aiko and Atlas.

“Guys! We have to find them in the woods!” Aiko then said to the other three. “You could all back out if you want-”

“We will come!” Nata determinedly exclaimed.

“Yeah!” Rich then exclaimed.

“Whether it’s dangerous or not.” Atlas then added.

“Thanks guys. Mr. Krei, I promise!” Aiko then said, before she and the others left the room. “In the meantime, I know someone who could help us..”

On Hiro and Chief Cruz’s end, they were walking on the path when a bear suddenly came up to them.

“I knew this was a bad idea..” Hiro was dismayed when the bear blocked the way.

“You’re right, kid.” Chief Cruz then said, “The mayor told me to meet her at the office for an important meeting.”

All of a sudden, the bear launched itself to the two, forcing them to run away. As they ran, Hiro’s eyes glanced at the mud pit.

“Are you thinking of what I’m thinking?” Chief Cruz asked Hiro.

“You mean…”

“JUMP INTO THE MUD TO HIDE OUR SCENT!” Chief Cruz exclaimed as he and Hiro jumped into the mud.

Elsewhere, Atlas’ car pulls over in the parking lot, and he, Aiko, Rich, Nata and Megan, who was invited by Aiko, get out of the car.

“So here’s the plan.” Aiko then told the group, “You guys have to split up so you can search all the ground. I will stay in Atlas’ car just in case something happens.”

“I hope you brought your…” Megan’s words trailed off when she realized.

“My what?” Aiko then asked.

“Nothing. Forget about it.” Megan then said just as she and the other three ran into the woods.

Aiko was confused as she watched.

“At least I brought my nano-purse for this..” She muttered as she took out food from her purse. “I don’t really need to bring my tags.”

On Nata’s end, she was walking by the trees, only for her eyes to glance at the footprints.

“These must be Hiro and Chief Cruz’s!” She exclaimed.

However, the footprints led to the bear, who was scratching a tree. Megan was also passing by.

“Hiro? Chief Cruz?” She called out, only to be seen by the bear.

The bear started running towards her. Luckily, Nata, using her belt, pulled Megan away before hiding in a bush.

“You okay?” Nata asked.

“I’m glad you were there for me.” Megan was relieved

As for Atlas, he was following the tire tracks on his path, leading him to the SUV Hiro and Chief Cruz used.

“Guys!” He started screaming for everyone else’s attention, “May nakita akong SUV! I found an SUV!”

Everyone heard him and rushed to the brunette boy. As for Rich, she becomes unsure about where she went through.

“The payphone!” Chief Cruz grunted as he and Hiro were almost on the payphone.

Just as Hiro tried to walk himself to the payphone, he felt his vision being blurry. He couldn’t see anything because of his injuries, so he eventually blacked out, not before saying,

“I don’t think I could do this…”

Chief Cruz’s blood ran cold, fearing for Hiro.

“Hiro!” Although he was shocked, he knew what he had to do. “I’m glad the time I used for the gym paid off!”

“Where’s Rich?” Megan asked as she, Aiko and Nata met Atlas in front of the SUV. “And why does it look like our family’s ride?”

As the girls looked at their surroundings, Atlas tried to start the car, only for it to make a clicking sound.

“I don’t know, pero sana hindi siya lost.” He replied as he turned the keys of the car in concern.

“That means “I hope she isn’t lost” in Tagalog, right?” Aiko asked.

“HIRO!!!”

As for Rich, she runs into Hiro and Chief Cruz, tired after walking for a very long time.

“Please don’t tell me this is real?” Chief Cruz doubted it as a hallucination, but Rich managed to shake his head.

“No! It’s not real!” Rich then replied, before taking them to the payphone. “But what the heck happened to our youngest colleague?”

“He blacked out all of a sudden.” Chief Cruz replied, “It happened when we were about to reach that payphone.”

Rich then looked at the payphone and tried to use it.

“It’s not working, dudes.”  She replied as she pressed on the buttons.

“And now we’re lost.”

“Don’t worry guys,” Rich then assured the two as she took out a flare gun from her backpack. “I know what I can do..”

On the other colleagues’ end, Aiko summons a new alternator from her purse, placing it on the engine compartment.

“I’m glad a friend of Hiro taught me how to do this.” She said, “Now, try starting the car!”

Atlas turned the keys and instead of the engine making a clicking sound, it made a vrooming and whirring sound instead.

“It works!” He exclaimed, with Nata’s eyes turning to a red light shot up into the air.

“Guys!” She exclaimed, “I think it comes from Rich!”

“Don’t worry guys, me and Nata will head there,” Megan tells her friend and the colleague. “..you guys follow!”

“Okie dokie!” Aiko then said, before the two girls left.

“Let’s say we tow this bad boy to their location!” Atlas then said, before he ran off.  “Aiko, hand me a tow line!”

“Gotcha!”

As for Rich’s end, she manages to wake her colleague up.

“Don’t worry, Hiro.” She said to him, “I’m here. Me, Aiko, Atlas, Nata and another friend of yours are here to save you.”

Hiro scratches his eyes and said,

“Rich? Am I halluci-”

“No, kid. It’s over.” Chief Cruz then told the young intern, “Our time in the woods has come to an end..” He then added as he, Hiro and Rich looked up into the sky.

“Following that, we were taken to the hospital for a check up.” Chief Cruz then concluded.

“Also, I didn’t know Rich could drive a car..” Hiro then added,

“Yup. She just got her license a month before.” Aiko then replied.

“Nevertheless, what you two, and the others did, was truly helpful!” Chief Cruz thanked the two girls, who looked at each other, proud.

Just then, an alarm blared throughout the base.

“Alert. Alert.” Basemax’s voice was heard.

Everyone stood up and ran for the doors, however, they wouldn’t open.

“Why won’t it open?” Fred then kicked the door, hurting his feet.

“Cause we locked it.” Sapphire’s voice was then heard, prompting everyone to look at their backs.

Turns out, The Fujitas entered the base, shocking everyone.

Chapter Text

“..Oh no.”

Inside Sim-Max, everyone looked at The Fujitas in shock.

“Hello there.” Saph was the first amongst the trio to greet, “Didn’t expect to see everyone in here without their gear!”

At the same time, Karmi held Hiro’s hand tightly.

“It’s okay, Karmi. Don’t be scared.” Hiro told her, blushing, "We will get ourselves out of this, eventually.”

As for Honey, she asked,

“How did you guys get here?”

“Glad that my Ji-Tag worked.” Emmy muttered.

“Gosh! We don’t have our suits!” Fred exclaimed, “WE DON’T HAVE A SUIT!!!!”

It led to Gogo looking him in the eye.

“Whatever this is, Fujitas.” Chief Cruz told them, “You three have nowhere to go! Surrender in the name of the law!”

However, instead of listening to the chief’s order, Emmy threw a spiked dart between Hiro and Karmi, who were trying to console each other.

“Duck down, Karms!” Hiro told her, even helping her dodge the spiked dart. Luckily, it didn’t hit them.

“That was close!” Karmi exclaimed in relief.

Witnessing that, Aiko went up to Megan and told her,

“Don’t worry, Megs. Whatever happens, we will stay together.”

As for Regina and Honey Lemon, they did the same thing.

“We may be on good terms,” Regina told Honey Lemon, “..but that doesn’t mean we are going to split up.”

“Yeah. Especially in times like these.” Honey Lemon replied. 

“If you heroes and allies don’t want to tell us more about your side,” Ruby told everyone as she prepared to swing her mace, “..then we’ll get our answers!”

“Run!” Hiro  exclaimed, causing him and everyone else to run around in circles.

“I hope we can get out of here,” Rishi muttered, “..alive..”

“Yeah. I also have a comic date with Olivia tomorrow.” Fred added.

“Is it just me, or is it that I am very worried about Wasabi..” Nega muttered.

On the other hand, Wasabi’s car went through the gate and drove towards its hangar. Inside the car were him, Professor Granville, and Miss Yvie.

“We didn’t expect our meeting to end this early,” Professor Granville asked the other two, “..right?”

“Yeah.” Miss Yvie replied, “I also decided to take the Red Line instead of driving to SFIT. Cause y’know..”

“Sleepover!” The three choruses.

“Say we make a creative explanation about our late arrival!” Miss Yvie chorused as she pulled out a pen and paper from her bag.

“Good idea!” Professor Granville replied with a smile.

As for Wasabi, he noticed something not quite right when he stopped in front of the door of the entrance to the hangars.

“Um.. Maybe we should put that on hold..” He muttered, looking at the rearview mirror, “Cause there seems to be a problem with my HangarMax.”

“What?” Miss Yvie was shocked, “What do you mean?!”

“The doors!” Wasabi replied, frantically, “It won’t open!”

Professor Granville then took out her phone and sent out a message to the others.

Allies of the Big Heroverse

YouCantHoldBackGenius: (a)BigHiro15 (a)Kingof_Lairs ASAP, do something with the hangar doors not opening!

FujitaInvasion.png

ChiefDiegoCruz: The Fujitas broke into the base and trapped us!”

BigHiro15: We need your help.

Thekid_Theglob: At least you guys could sneak your phones out while the Fujitas are- -N

Inside Sim-Max, everyone was still running as the Fujitas still chased them.

“I don’t care whether we get ourselves dizzy or not.” Saph told everyone, “But we will get our answers about whoever you guys are and tell it to our boss.”

Saph then threw her bladed fan towards Chief Cruz, who was quick enough to dodge it.

“I wished this base had an emergency exit!” Nega exclaimed.

Just then, Rishi thought of something, so he pulled Aiko’s arm and ran towards the wall.

“Aiko. Cover me as I try to hack the doors open.” He whispered, “I still have my tablet.”

“Okay Rishi!” Aiko whispered back, “But maybe try not to pull my arm so hard. You would’ve dislocated it.”

Ruby looked at the two, but luckily, Fred distracted her by dancing in front of her.

“I’m not interested in your distractive dance, Freddie.” Ruby spoke to him and said.

“Freddie? How did-?” He thought to himself.

Finally, Rishi manages to open the door, getting everyone else’s attention.

“Now’s our chance!” Hiro exclaimed, pulling Baymax with him. “Come!”

As the heroes and allies rushed to the door, Gogo took off her jacket and threw it towards Saph, causing her to fall over. At the same time, Honey, using a chemball from her pocket, threw it towards Emmy, causing her to slip and slide towards Ruby, causing them to fall.

In the hallways, everyone was running towards the hangars, panting. But they knew that it was their only way.

“Rishi, am I right? “Chief Cruz asked Rishi, who was running beside him, holding his tablet.

“Yup.” Rishi replied back at the chief, "That's my name. Also, you can call me Ricochet, or Rico in short.”

“Fred’s good at nicknames.” Aiko explained, “He also called Megan “Detecto-Megs” and me “Screenfiend”. And we liked it.”

“What I’m telling Rishi is how I’m shocked about how he opened the doors.” Chief Cruz said, “That way, we could get away.”

“Thnaks!’ Rishi exclaimed to the chief, “Also, thanks Gogo for sacrificing your jacket. And thank you too, Honey, for throwing that ball towards them.”

“You’re welcome.” Honey gleefully replied.

After some time running, everyone got into the hangars. Hiro’s hangar has him, Chief Cruz, Megan, and Aiko. Nega’s hangar has him, Gogo, Rishi, and Fred. While Honey’s hangar has her, Regina, Karmi, and Baymax.

Outside the base, Wasabi, Professor Granville, and Miss Yvie were met with a lot of buddy guards exiting the base using different doors and entryways in the base, even the vents. Saph and Ruby exited the base, following the buddy guards.

“Keep anyone from entering the base.” Saph told them, “Ruby, stay with them while me and Emmy find them.”

Without any choice, Wasabi was forced to reverse his car, driving backwards.

“I think this car has a lot of features.” Miss Yvie said, “Although, unused because for everyone’s safety.”

“It is for emergencies.” Wasabi told her.

As for Professor Granville, she checked her tote bag for anything that could be used for combat. She then pulled out a couple of keychains from her bag.

“Professor G!” Miss Yvie exclaimed to her, “Do you think a couple of keychains will help in combat?”

“Those keychains are not just like any ordinary keychains.” Professor Granville replied, “It is a special keychain used for self-defence.” She explained, “It has an alarm, a knife, a cutter, a stick, a screwdriver, and more.”

“I’m sorry for being a little too jealous.” Miss Yvie said.

“Guys. I have a plan.” Professor Graville told the two, “I will distract the Fujitas while you two try to enter the base in any way possible.”

“Are you sure?” Wasabi asked.

“Yes.” Professor Granville replied, “I have to risk this, just for the pink Fujita-”

“It’s Ruby.” Wasabi told her.

“I will distract her while you two get in.” Professor Granville replied, “Got it.”

Inside Nega’s hangar, Rishi and Fred were talking about something about the base.

“Hey Fred.” Rishi called out.

“What?” Fred asked in shock, “Also, maybe we should whisper for now.”

“Yeah.” Nega added, “If we make some noise, the Fujitas might hear us.”

“Okay.” Rishi whispered, “And what I’m telling you, Fred. You did tell me about those secrets in this base, right?”

“Umm. Yes.” Fred whispered back, “But we should not tell anyone.”

However, Nega and Gogo were able to overhear what they were talking about.

“Secrets..?” Gogo muttered.

“I didn’t know this hideout had some..” Nega muttered, “Why did you guys not tell us?”

“Hmm.” Fred muttered, but Gogo decided to make an excuse.

“Maybe Roddy told him to keep it a secret.” Gogo then thought.

As he heard that, Rishi used that as an opportunity to look at his tablet and tapped the keys, which led him to the map of the entire base.

“Guys! Look!” He whispered, trying not to make any noise.

Everyone else went up to him and looked at his tablet.

“If I zoom into your hangar, Nega,” He spoke to him, “..there is an invisible door unnoticed.”

As for Gogo, she stood up and searched every area. Looking at the walls, she noticed a small button, which was painted with the same color used for the walls.

“Guys. I found a button.” She told everyone.

In response, everyone went up to her and placed their hands on the button.

“On a count of three.” She said, “One, two, push.”

At the same time, everyone pushed the button, which allowed a hatch installed on one of the walls to open.

“I guess you’re right, Rish.” Gogo told him, “This base has a lot of untold secrets Roddy hid.”

Just as everyone was walking through the hatch, Nega threw some of his glob to the surveillance camera.

“There. That way, no fujita would notice.” He said, before following his friends through the door.

Behind the base, Wasabi parked his car and turned off its engine, allowing him, Professor Granville, and Miss Yvie to get out of the car. Just like what they talked about before, Wasabi and Miss Yvie walked towards one of the vents while Professor Granville made her way to the front of the base.

“Remember, Grace.” Granville thought to herself, “You don’t need to seriously overpower them. Just get them distracted.”

Finally, when she looked at the base, her gaze was turned to Ruby, who was holding her chained mace.

“Be ready.” She spoke.

“Oh yeah? I’m ready.” Ruby replied and hissed at the dean, “I mean, look at yours! They look like a useless pair of car keys!”

In Hiro’s hangar, he opened his scooter’s trunk to look for something that he could use. 

“Hiro? If you don’t mind me checking the drawers?” Chief Cruz asked him, “Thought I could help.”

“Sure Chief Cruz.” Hiro replied.

“If you want, you could call me Uncle Diego.” Chief Cruz then told Hiro, “In fact, I have been friends with Aunt Cass since we were kids.”

“I know. But I guess I could, Uncle Diego.” Hiro then replied.

As for Megan, she was using what was available in the hangar for her dress up.

“This wheel would look good as protective armor.” She thought to herself.

“Now you’re talking. I really need to start working on the prototype of my newest tag.” Aiko then told Megan, “How it works is when I drop it on the floor or place it on top of an object, it will generate a bubble shield, strong enough to protect an object.”

“Cool!” Hiro exclaimed. It reminded him of the bubble shield installed on Wasabi’s car.

“Speaking of that, I wonder where my armor is placed after a mission..” Aiko muttered, “I mean, Hiro. You remember placing it inside the base right after I defeated the Fujitas with you guys, right?”

“Umm..” Hiro muttered.

“Let me ask him.” Megan told Aiko, before asking Hiro, “Where does Skymax place all of your armors?”

Finally, Hiro got an idea.

“I have an idea!” He exclaimed.

“What idea?” Chief Cruz looked at him and asked.

“I remembered Roddy hiding a secret button in one of those walls.” Hiro told him and explained, “It is in every hangar.”

Curious, Aiko walked up to the cabinets and pushed them, revealing a secret doorway. Everyone else in the hangar was very confused.

“And I have a bet that the door leads to wherever every armor Big Hero 6 uses is located.” Megan guessed.

As for Chief Cruz, he looked behind the TV Screen, only to find a button behind it. He presses it, however, instead of the door opening, the TV turns on. Panicked, he turned it off almost immediately.

“I hope we can find this secret button faster, so we can get through..!” Chief Cruz exclaimed.

All of a sudden, after a lot of thinking, Hiro finally knew where the door leads to.

“I.. think it leads to the armory!”

“YES!” Chief Cruz exclaimed and celebrated, much to the kids’ confusion. “I KNEW THIS PLACE HAD AN ARMORY!”

However, while celebrating, Chief Cruz ended up hitting the wall with his fist. That hit caused one of the picture frames to fall, revealing a button underneath it.

“I think this is it, guys.” He said, shocked at what he saw. “The button.. is right over here.”

“..you’re too powerful!”

Outside the base, as Granville was feeling weaker as Ruby swung her mace against her, she couldn’t help but..

“I may have no chance against you,” She told Ruby, who was smiling like a psycho. “..but I won’t give in!”

However, Ruby snickered at her and said,

“Well, break a leg with that!”

On Wasabi and Miss Yvie’s end, they crawled to the hangar entrance, using the vents. The hangar entrance contained all hangars of each Big Hero 6 member, including Nega’s and two spare ones. Even more, there is a garden in the center. [1]

“Let’s try to look for something useful.” Miss Yvie then said.

As they looked around, they heard the doors open.

“We better hide, Professor Wasabi!” Miss Yvie exclaimed, before pulling Wasabi’s arm, running to a safer place within the hangar.

As the two hid behind a tree in the garden, Emmy walked into the entrance and started banging on each of the hangars’ doors. It frightened Honey, Karmi and Regina, who were in the same hangar as Baymax. As for Saph, she was hiding beside Wasabi and Miss Yvie, who glanced to their right in shock.

“Surprised to see me beside you guys,” Saph greeted the two, “..right?”

Panicking, both Wasabi and Miss Yvie ran off, however, it was too late. Emmy, together with buddy guards, and Saph surrounded them.

“Does anyone know what to do during a raid?” Karmi asked everyone else inside Honey’s hangar, “I think Wasabi and Miss Yvie are here as well.

Everyone else walked up to the door and placed their eyes on it. They could hear Wasabi and Miss Yvie bickering with the fujitas.

“According to my database, there are about 3 things to do during a raid.” Baymax said and explained to the girls, who were trying to overhear the conflict happening outside their hangar. “..the most recommended one is to stay calm.”

Just then, Karmi decided to open one of the drawers. The drawer contained a couple of chemicals. And while Emmy was fighting Wasabi and Miss Yvie by throwing darts at them, which they dodged, Saph could hear voices coming from one of the hangars.

“Maybe someone might be inside those!” Saph exclaimed, before walking towards Honey’s hangar.

Placing her bladed fan on the gap of the door, Saph tries to open the door. 

Inside her hangar, Honey could hear the voice of Saph, telling them,

“WHOEVER IS INSIDE THIS HANGAR, I WILL FORCE MYSELF IN THERE!”

Honey finally went up to her team and quietly told them,

“Guys. It’s best if we quiet down.”

While everyone thought of what to do, Regina spoke up and said, [2]

“We have to fight back!”

Everyone else was confused.

“It could lead to several injuries-” Baymax tried to interfere.

“I know it may be risky, but we have to.” Regina tried to explain, “It is our only way.”

“Gina’s right.” Honey defended her ex-roommate, “Our very survival may depend on it!”

“You got that right, Honey.” Regina replied to her, “So grab everything that you can.”

“And give them all that we got!” Karmi exclaimed, excitedly. Still she remained quiet. “Let’s do this.”

On Hiro’s end, he and his group were walking down the secret hallway. Chief Cruz brought his flashlight while Aiko’s purse shone a light.

“At least this purse glows whenever you’re in the dark,” Megan told Aiko, “..so Aikonic.”

“I’m glad Rishi gave me an idea.”

Inside their dorm, Rishi was cooking while Aiko, on the couch, was using her tablet, trying to decide on what thing she should put on her purse.

“Still working on that purse?” Rishi asked his roommate, who nodded her head in response.

“One problem, I don’t know what I should place on my purse.” Aiko replied to her roommate, showing him the design of her purse, “I need something that could find my purse, in case it gets lost.”

Rishi then went up to Aiko and looked at her tablet. His eyes then turned to his tablet, then the chandelier hanging on the ceiling. Finally, he got an idea.

“Maybe try to make it glow in the dark?” He suggested, “That way, it can shine a ray of light whenever you’re walking in a dark place.”

“And that’s how I made the fabric of my purse glow in the dark.!” 

Aiko finished explaining her roommate’s idea, and at the same time, she could see Rishi in the distance. Rishi, joined by the rest of Nega’s team, were surprised to see Hiro’s team, who stood in shock.

“So that secret button led us to you guys..” Nega muttered.

“It was a blessing in..” Aiko sang as she went up to Rishi, “..disguise..” [3]

One by one, everyone entered the armory, which looked like a mess. Every cabinet is scattered, and so are the boxes. On the other hand, everyone could hear the scent of chocolate, considering that the base used to be a candy factory.

“Trying not to be so harsh but why does the armory look like a mess..?” Rishi asked, “It looked like it got shaken by an earthquake.”

“I think Roddy did this for security reasons..” Chief Cruz muttered as he walked through.

While everyone was searching for the heroes’ armors, Rishi, using his tablet, tries to use a hack to detect any equipment. When he started pressing on the screen, he noticed something.

“Great. The app is down.” He said, unable to find any equipment.

All of a sudden, Megan opens one of the cabinets and, to her shock, finds something useful. It was a pink suit hanging on the hanger, with a cyan bag attached onto it.

“Aiko!” She exclaimed to her friend, pointing at the suit. “I think this might be yours.”

Aiko walked up to the cabinet. Her face turned to excitement as she knew what Megan was pointing at, was none other than..

“..my armor!” She exclaimed, excitedly. “Now I know where it goes every time I’m not doing missions.”

“Everyone! Search everywhere!” Gogo exclaimed to everyone else in the room, “Our armor might be in here!”

“You heard that?” Chief Cruz asked, “We are here to help.”

Hiro and Rishi open a cabinet, which contains the former’s ultra armor.

“At least we have backup armor..” Hiro muttered, looking at his armor.

Looking at the back of one of the cabinets, Fred and Rishi found the latter’s chameleon suit while Gogo, with the help of Chief Cruz, found her ultra armor.

“Has anyone found any armor?” Hiro asked the others, who nodded in response.

“We did!” Megan exclaimed.

“So what’s the plan?” Chief Cruz asked.

As Cruz said that, Hiro finally stood up on top of the table and said,

“Me, Gogo, Fred and Aiko will suit up. While we do that, the rest will exit the base and help the others. Our only choice is to come face-to-face with the Fujitas.”

“Plus, our only hope is our survival.” Chief Cruz added, “Just like the time you and I got stranded in the woods. Huh, Hiro.”

Hiro then gave two packs of Mini-Magnets to the Cruzes.

“I hope this one helps.” He spoke.

And right after the allies left the armory, the only ones left were Hiro, Fred, Gogo, and Aiko, who is the only ally left behind.

“I hope the rest are okay..” Gogo muttered, worried. Her main concern is everyone else.

As for Granville, who had been fighting with Ruby outside the base, she was feeling exhausted from trying to dodge almost every strike Ruby gave her.

“I guess you may have beaten me,” She told the red fujita, “..but I’m still not done yet.”

Granville tried to crawl towards the Fujita, who snickered at her, saying,

“Oh really. Cause it looks like you’re done.”

Finally, with all of her energy, Granville stood up, and thought of an idea.

“I heard you and the other fujitas are the best when it comes to martial arts,” She finally asked her, “..right?”

“Well, you’re right.” Ruby replied, “We spar all the time.”

“With that said..” Granville finally spoke up, “..I challenge you to a tumble fight!”

As for Wasabi and Miss Yvie, they were having a tumble fight with Emmy. As for Saph, she felt the door of Honey’s hangar open.

“Hey sis!” The green fujita exclaimed to the green one, gathering Wasabi and Miss Yvie’s reaction.

“You guys are sisters..?” Wasabi asked in shock.

“I’ll take care of these two weaklings.” Emmy said to Saph, “You get the ones in that hangar!”

“Got it, Ems!” Saph exclaimed, before she returned to trying to open the door.

However, she was met with surprise when the door suddenly opened. Turns out, Honey opened it using a button.

“Now’s our chance!” Karmi exclaimed, holding a pole. “Get her!”

“It’s time to save the others.” Baymax, who was sporting a makeshift armor made by Honey’s metallic chem-balls, said.

“I hope they don’t turn you into a metallic skeleton..” Karmi muttered, albeit in a worried expression.

Everyone got out of the hangar. Honey, who was using her chem-purse, and Regina, who was holding chemballs, made their attempt to overwhelm Emmy. As for Karmi and Baymax, they tried to overwhelm Saph.

In the conference room, Hiro’s team, who were all clad in their armor, entered. However, they didn’t expect the room to be empty.

“Nice.” Gogo said, “They’re not here.”

“At least this room is clear.” Aiko added. 

However, something came to her mind.

“MY SISTER!” She exclaimed, “She and the others-”

“Including Baymax..” Hiro muttered, concerned about his robot.

“..might be in danger!”

As for Chief Cruz’s team, they finally exited the base using the vent and hid behind a wall, which was close enough to the front entrance, where Granville and Ruby were still fighting.

“Not our professor fighting a fujita!” Rishi exclaimed in concern, still trying to avoid making a sound. “She’s gonna get injured!”

As for Granville herself, she tried to punch Ruby in the face. However, not a split second, Ruby got hold of Granville’s hand and pushed her, causing the dean to trip, falling backwards.

“Can’t reason with crazy.” Ruby then said.

However, as she prepared to swing her mace towards Granville’s face, she felt something grab the chain. She tried pulling it, but it’s too late.

“It ends here, Ruby.” Rishi determinedly told her.

Turns out, not only did Cruz’s team go up to the two, but Chief Cruz, using a mini-magnet, took the mace and gave it to his daughter, who was wearing white gloves.

“Glad I brought it.” Megan sighed in relief.

Angered, Ruby summoned a couple of buddy guards and pulled a couple of car keys from her pocket.

“Buddy guards! Distract them.” She instructed, “I will get the truck.”

As the buddy guards surrounded the group of allies, Nega went to the ground and morphed into a trampoline.

“Guys! Jump!” He told everyone.

In response, everyone followed Chief Cruz into jumping down the trampoline.

“Expect the unexpected!” Megan smirked to the buddy guards, before she swung Ruby's confiscated mace at one of them.

As for Chief Cruz, he used the cover of a nearby trash bin to shield himself from the lasers, before throwing a magnet towards a buddy guard, causing the nearby robots to get attracted, causing an explosion.

“Better thank Hiro for that.” The chief said.

As for Rishi, he hid behind the wall and hacked into the system of one of the buddy guards, using it to shoot other ones. Finally, Megan used it as an opportunity to shut it down using a mini-magnet.

As for Ruby, she drove Aunt Cass’ truck through the gate, driving towards Chief Cruz.

“Chief Cruz!” Rishi hurriedly called out to the chief, “LOOK OUT!”

As for Megan, she looked in shock as she watched her dad get restrained by a couple of buddy guards as Ruby pressed on the gas pedal. However, Ruby noticed the steering wheel not turning. That glitch allowed Nega to hit the buddy guards using his glob. Finally pushing Chief Cruz to the side, the mutant watched as the pickup truck veered out of control. Even more, Gogo threw her disc at the front wheel, thus causing the truck to crash towards the fence.

“Nega?” Chief Cruz asked the glob, who was helping him stand. “How?”

“We did.” Aiko’s voice was a sign that she and her team were already outside.

“The time they cut the brakes of Honey’s car,” She told the group, “..inspired me to do the same on their “so-called” getaway car.”

“It will also teach them a lesson to not mess with my Aunt’s truck.” Hiro added, “And my scooter of course!”

While trying to fight the rest of the fujitas, Honey Lemon and Regina realize that they ran out of chemballs. To make matters worse, the fujitas restrained her team, including Wasabi and Miss Yvie.

“6 down, a couple more to go…” Saph muttered as she aimed the spray towards Wasabi.

“Welp, this is the end path.” Wasabi finally said, accepting his fate, “Aka. The finish line of our lives!”

“Game’s over, Fujitas!”

The next thing they knew, they heard Hiro’s voice telling the Fujitas to stop. Moreover, using his gloves, Hiro took the spray from Saph’s hands. 

At the same time, everyone else, including an injured Professor Granville, who was laying down on a stretcher, entered the base and surrounded the girls. Chief Cruz went up to the Fujitas and said to them,

“You two, and Ruby, are going to jail.”

“He knows my line.” Gogo pointed out.

However, the lights suddenly turned off, causing panic.

“Hey!” Wasabi exclaimed.

“Who turned off the lights?” Megan panicked.

“Dude!” Rishi rambled, “Do you general scumbags think that today is Halloween?!” [4]

Finally, the lights went back up, and to everyone's surprise, the Fujitas got away.

“Nice.” Gogo said, dismayed about the Fujitas’ escape, “That distraction let them get away.”

Moments later, everyone was working tirelessly to fix everything inside the hangar. Roddy was also there, while Professor Granville was seated on the chair, trying to recover from her injuries

“Wasabi, Professor Granville, and Miss Yvie.” Hiro told the three, “I just want to thank you.”

“For what?” Miss Yvie asked in confusion.

“.. for trying to distract the Fujitas while we escape.” Hiro replied.

“And even though they got away, no one was injured.” Chief Cruz added, until he looked at Professor Granville. “Well, except some who risked their lives to save us.”

“That reminds me..” Hiro muttered, concerned as he walked to the table and typed on the keys.

“With what happened today, it felt like a reminder..” Hiro said to the team, “..that Obake must be closer to uncovering everything about us..”

Karmi went up to the genius and embraced him.

“I feel you, Captain Cutie.” She told him.

“Everyone feeling the same thing?” Aiko asked everyone else.

The others nodded in response.

“I also noticed that Obake recruited not just the Fujitas,” Gogo pointed out about Obake’s team, “..but also the Supersonics, Sirque, El Fuego, and the Mad Jacks.”

“They’re a group of eleven now..” Rishi muttered, “Tho eleven’s my age.”

“Let’s take this as a sign to prepare and be careful.” Aiko told everyone, “We would never know when Obake would strike.”

“We can’t let that happen.” Hiro said, “We have to prepare for something big.”

“Yeah.” Chief Cruz added, “And this time, it’s not just you heroes being involved.”

“All of us, fresh from The Allies of the Big Heroverse,” Rishi announced to the team, “..will be involved and prepared for whatever is going to happen.”

Hearing that, Hiro finally opened the list of his team’s allies on the computer. 

“Every ally who is in here,” Chief Cruz, using a megaphone Aiko took out from her purse, announced. “..report to the meeting room.” 

Every ally was already in the room as Hiro started to explain all of the objectives he assigned to every one of them.

“So, your purpose in this team is to, not just keep our identities a secret,” He said, “..but to investigate whatever Obake is doing and help other citizens.”

"We decided that we sould focus on everyone's strenghts," Chief Cruz added, "..also keeping in mind about their weaknesses."

He opened another document, which contained details about each ally.

“Megan, Miss Yvie, and Professor Granville, you three and Olivia will try to do research.” Hiro told them, “You need to help us figure out what Obake’s gonna do to the city, and how he will do it.”

“This is like trying to uncover your secret identities!” Megan exclaimed, excitedly. “Right?”

“Yes.” Baymax replied.

“It’s like we’re going to try uncovering things about Obake.” Wasabi added.

“Aiko, Rishi, Globby, Nega-Globby, Regina, and Karmi will help us, heroes, just in case we have a member who is unavailable.” Hiro told them, “It’s like Rishi and Aiko helping us when Wasabi was having a class during a mission.”

“Does this mean I’m about to get my own armor?” Rishi asked Hiro.

“Yup.” Hiro replied.

“And for Heathcliff, Chief Cruz and Roddy, you guys will keep an eye on everyone in the city.” Hiro finally told them, “Protect them if anything would strike.”

“I’m ready to put my good samaritan on!” Roddy exclaimed, determinedly.

“Is everyone ready for Obake’s Revenge?” Hiro asked everyone else.

“We will be ready.” Chief Cruz replied.

“Whatever it takes.” Aiko added.

As everyone placed their hands together, they all exclaimed,

“To the power of Big Hero 6!”

Chapter Text

Lucky Cat Cafe....

The heroes and their friends all started their day by having their breakfast at the Lucky Cat Cafe, which was blooming with customers throughout the day. The only exceptions were Fred and Aiko, who were noticeably missing.

"Thanks for the food Mrs. Hamada!" Regina complimented the meal.

"It is no pleasure, but you can call me Cass." Aunt Cass then replied, with her eyes turning to Hiro. "What are you searching for?"

"Uh, it's research!" Hiro lied, "Mmmm. I wonder how you made your Tocilog look special."

"Oh, it's a Filipino dish with eggs and achara, also known as pickled papaya! It is also a part of my newly-made "Around Asia" menu." Cass responded with a smile. "Hope you enjoy it!"

All of a sudden, Regina's phone started to ring.

"Oh wait! It is my sister!” Regina picked up the video call, using her mug as a phone stand. “Heya sis! How's your trip going?"

"Going pretty well! Except Professor Granville gave me a lot of offline activities." Aiko responded as she was sitting inside a minibus, reading a notebook. "Is my homework in Rishi's hands?"

"Definitely a yes!" Rishi exclaimed, pulling out a couple of papers. "I cannot wait to give it to her! Also, maybe we should stop calling her PG."

“Totally agree.” Aiko muttered.

"It's very disrespectful at this point." Wasabi then mentioned, “You could both get suspended,”

“..or worse..” Honey then added

"Nevertheless, I'm so glad that you are enjoying your time in nature." Regina said as she took a bite of her meal. “Fred is with you?"

"Yup, since I'm also a member of the club!" Fred said as he sat beside Aiko. "And this week, Aiko and I would be unavailable for y'know.."

"Club, bootcamp?" Rishi asked, “I don't know what that trip is all about.”

"An annual club bootcamp," Regina corrects Rishi. "..which is for everyone who signed in the cheerleaders' club."

"I'm so glad your sister's enjoying her time out of the city!" Karmi then said,  "The fact that me and your sister would have ours a week before halloween."

As for Hiro, he was searching through the web when Gogo glanced at him.

“Isn’t that Orso Knox?” Gogo wondered.

“My patient?” Karmi asked, gazing at the screen.

"It has been approximately 10 to 12 months since we had heard about him." Hiro said as he scrolled through the web, "And I'am going to try and check on him but his address..."

"Well, good for you.. I actually have it!" Karmi replied, taking her phone out. "I have to send it to you because I do not want to risk being caught.."

Hiro’s phone buzzed, indicating that he indeed received Karmi’s message.

"Thanks, Karms. Now I do not need to worry." He responded, looking up the address on his GPS. "And since I do not have any classes and my internship is for tomorrow only, I could visit him today."

“Hey Hiro..” Rishi chorused, “Aiko wants to talk to you…..”

“I guess my opera lessons worked out.” Wasabi then said.

"Hey Hiro!" Aiko said,. "I know you would be visiting Mr. Knox but you can call me anytime!"

"Okay Aiko, but I will really need to go." Hiro said as he finished up his breakfast and headed for the exit. "Hope you have a safe trip, bye!" 

"Well sister, it seems our schedules would be commencing in an hour so we need to go." Regina rambled as she looked at her watch. "Talk to you later, bye!"

"Bye sis!" Aiko said before ending the call.

---------------------------------------------------------

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology....

Some time later, Rishi entered Professor Granville’s office, holding the homework done by his roommate.

“So, what brings you here?” Professor Cranville asked, calmly.

"Here I have right here, is Aiko's homework." Rishi said to Professor Granville, "I hope it is not late, since it was meant to be given yesterday but-."

"Not late." Granville said, looking at the homework, "I actually gave her an excuse in submitting before the deadline, so I allowed her to submit it late."

"Oh, really?"

"Yes, Mr. Patel." Granville replied, "But it's okay if you submitted it for her today."

Just then, Gogo peaked at the office from the peakhole.

“Come in.” Professor Granville instructed.

Gogo enters the office and said to her,

"I have just finished moving some of my stuff out of my part of the lab."

"Great!" The professor chimed, happy about the news.

Lucky Cat Cafe....

Hiro and Karmi were in the former’s garage, preparing to leave.

"I guess I'm ready." Hiro said as he sat on his scooter.

"Are you sure you could go without me or Baymax?" Karmi asked, looking at Hiro. "I mean Aiko said that she could also be available for a phone call."

"It's okay." Hiro replied as he started up the scooter's engines. "I'll text you when I get there, but before that.."

Hiro takes out an extra helmet from the compartment.

"A ride to SFIT?" Karmi guessed, taking the helmet from Hiro’s hands.

"Yup." Hiro replied, "I'll drop you off at the entrance right before heading off to Mr. Knox's house."

"Aw, thanks Genius Kid." Karmi said as she sat on the back.

"Baymax, you could help the others move their items from their old labs for a while." Hiro then told Baymax as Karmi sat on the scooter.

"Yes." Baymax said, deflating into his charging port so Hiro could dock him on the back before riding off.

The Streets....

As the trio drive, they receive a call from Aiko and Fred, who have just gotten out of the minibus.

"It's Aiko!" Karmi answered the call while Hiro was focused on the road. “Hi ScreenFiend!”

"Hey Karms!" Aiko responded on the other line, “Really living up to the “Fred’s nicknames” thingy..”

The call went silent for a while.

“So, how are things on your end?” Aiko then broke the silence by asking her friend.

“Going pretty well. Rishi just submitted your homework,” Karmi replied to the blondie, “..and right now, Hiro is bringing me to SFIT so I could help out with moving your things out of the graduates’ lab.”

“Okay.. But what about me?” Aiko then asked, “I mean, Mr. Wasabi is moving his things out of his lab for me to move my things in.. But I’m not there..”

“Don’t worry, mate. Rishi and your sister could take care of your things while you're away.” Karmi reassured her, “Don’t forget that Nega is going to help out in moving your stuff in the lab, so it should be fine.”

San Fransokyo Institute of Technology....
Speaking of SFIT, Wasabi and Honey Lemon were moving their things out of their lab with further assistance from Mini-Max, Regina, Rishi, Miss Yvie, Nega and Gogo.

“Nega Nega Nega!” Mini-Max called out, “Your new look is awesome!”

“Aw thanks, Mini-Max.” Nega complimented.

As for Wasabi, he was almost finished clearing his items out of his old lab. 

"Luckily Aiko has the urge to keep my items organized." He said while placing some of his things on the box, "If some other student uses my lab, then they would've made a mess." He then added.

After talking one final look at the lab, he lifts up the box.

“So long, my lab.” He told the lab, “I know I could still visit Aiko anytime. Till next time.”

While Nega and Mini-Max helped each other in moving Aiko’s stuff in Wasabi’s old lab, Gogo and Miss Yvie, on Hiro’s behalf, help Rishi move his stuff into the former’s old lab.

“So basically, you heroes are making friends with Hiro’s classmates,” Miss Yvie wondered, “..right.” 

The young prodigy and the speedster nodded at the librarian.

“Also, speaking of Hiro, I’m glad he’s allowed me to help you guys on his behalf.” Miss Yvie then added, “I don’t get it, what is he doing for today?”

“He’s visiting an old friend of Karmi.” Rishi answered her question, “They wanted to know about how Knox has been doing, so that’s why.”

Miss Yvie suddenly realized something.

“Now I know..”

“What?” Gogo and Rishi muttered in unison.

“The anniversary of the monster-pocalypse is in one month and two weeks from now.” Miss Yvie then answered, “That’s why the loved ones of those mutated people-”

“Villains. Most of them are villains.” Gogo then corrected.

“”Really?” Miss Yvie was shocked, “That means Knox was a villain?”

“Not a villain, actually.” Rishi then replied.

“He was blackmailed by Diane herself.” Gogo added.

Meanwhile, as Honey and Regina were helping each other clear out the former's lab, the latter opens a drawer only for something to come out.

"Oh-" She gasped. "Is it just me, or is this really the purse from Chem-Girl’s ultra armor..?"

"Um, yes-" Honey said, “So that was where I kept that purse.. No wonder why I couldn’t find it somehow..”
