"Tadashi!" Hiro shouted in terror. "Tadashi!" He repeated.

Hiro was panicking. This was like a repeat of what happened after his showcase. Tadashi had wanted to save Professor Callaghan but he never made it out.

"I'm fine" Tadashi coughed through the communicator. "I'm fine." He repeated.

Everyone collectively sighed in relief at hearing Tadashi's voice.

"Were you able to rescue the person?" Gogo inquired.

"Yeah." Tadashi managed to breathe out. "But he needs medical help pronto." He added. "I forcibly removed the wires embedded unto his body, as a result, he's bleeding all over." He explained. "You guys might want to hurry. "He coughed out. "The microbots are no longer operational." He continued. "And there's another explosion coming." He finished.

Everyone's eyes widened at the revelation. They were instantly on overdrive. Hiro immediately made Megabot disable the bubble the team were inside.

As soon as the bubble was gone, Gogo immediately dragged Wasabi and wheeled themselves to the dome that Honey had created earlier.

"Cut an entrance now!" Gogo ordered.

"Right!" Came Wasabi's response as he activated his plasma lasers.

By the time a big enough opening was cut, Gogo immediately went inside and looked around to find her friend.

Everything inside the dome were all blackened, covered in soot. Cracks had formed on them due to the impact of the explosion that happened. The cars, among other things, weren't spared at all, they also exploded as soon as the robot blew up.

In fact the entire area was covered in soot.

"Wheelowz! Over here!" Tadashi yelled. "Over here!" He repeated.

Gogo looked for the source of the voice. She turned around and saw Tadashi inside one of the buildings that was near the robot. He was behind a big pile of burnt and destroyed things from couches to overturned tables.

She immediately wheeled herself towards her friend. She noticed the microbots on the ground, lifeless and disconnected.

This was what Tadashi probably meant when he said that they weren't operational.

"What?" Gogo questioned. "Can't take the heat?" She chuckled.

"You could say that." Tadashi replied.

"Heh."

Gogo grabbed both Tadashi and the man and put them in a fireman's carry on both of her shoulders. She immediately wheeled towards the entryway she had Wasabi make for her.

"Hiro, get Baymax ready!" Gogo ordered. "We have an emergency!"

"On it!" Hiro replied via the communicator.

The unconscious man was losing blood at a faster rate, this prompted Gogo to wheel herself faster towards the opening. The man needed first aid immediately, not to mention Tadashi, who was in the range of the explosion.

As soon as Gogo, along with the men on her shoulders, was safely out of the blast zone, Honey immediately resealed the dome.

Hiro on the other hand made another medical bubble to protect himself and his team to oncoming explosion. Unfortunately his helmet started beeping and signified something bad and it did. His minicomputer showed him that the chemical compound for the medical bubble won't be enough to fit all of them, Baymax and the rescued victim included.

"Big problem guys!" Hiro shouted. "Insufficient chemical compound for the bubble!" He informed his team.

"Use everything and form what the bubble with what you have!" Gogo shouted her reply. "Hurry!"

"Right!"

Hiro did what he was told and formed the bubble with the remaining chemical compound that Megabot has.

As soon as the bubble was almost done, Gogo immediately wheeled herself, along with the males she were carrying and deposited them into the bubble. Soon after, she grabbed Hiro's shoulder and shoved him inside the bubble.

"Chempurse! Now!" Gogo yelled.

Honey looked at her friend and nodded and saw the three males Gogo had deposited inside. She nodded and threw a single purple chemball at the ball, sealing the bubble shut and at the same time protecting the three men from the oncoming explosion.

"Baymax come with us buddy!" Fred called out as he pulled the robot by his side.

Fred had seen events that transpired and got what Wheelowz train of thought. Frankly, he can't say that he disagreed with his friend's decision.

"Gogo!" Hiro hissed as soon as the bubble was sealed.

"What are you doing?!" Tadashi questioned as he mirrored his younger brother's expression.

"You can yell at us later!" Gogo calmly replied. "For now your safety takes precedence over ours." She stated as she nodded at her other friends.

Everyone outside the bubble, including Baymax, gathered at Gogo's location. They formed a tight circle as Honey gave the three humans a pink chemball each and the four of them threw them to the ground in unison. The resulting chemical reaction was a pink dome that encased all four of them.

And not soon after another explosion rocked the area, although it was weaker than the first one.

As soon as silence reigned after the explosion, Hiro punched his way out of the bubble and immediately dashed towards the dome that Honey had erected and left Tadashi to tend to the still bleeding man beside him.

"Baymax, punch the dome." Tadashi's voice was heard through the communicator. "And suspend the override program." He added. "And come over to my side."

The robot in red armor complied with his creator's commands and punched everyone free. Everyone immediately went outside the dome. They were relatively unhurt aside from the bruises they got from the previous battle but nonetheless nothing of immediate concern.

Meanwhile, Tadashi forced himself up and began further treatment of the person he rescued. It was a good thing, in the loosest sense, that needles were the ones that pierced him and he wasn't losing a lot of blood. Small exits for blood to pass through

Baymax arrived at Tadashi's side and took over the first aid procedures.

Not a moment has passed sirens were heard. Police cars and ambulances started to arrive. Soon after, the place was littered with medical and police workers. Baymax was busy making sure that the rescued person was deposited properly towards the ambulance.

Hiro on the other hand made use of White Knight's hoverboard and went to the place where the bubbles that protected Alfred and the other civilians are located. As soon as he arrived, he immediately worked on popping the bubbles.

"Once again Big Hero 6 saves the day, twice in a row!" A reported commented as she faced the camera.


"What were you thinking?!" Gogo hissed at Tadashi as she fixed him with a glare.

Everyone, in their civilian attires, reconvened at Fred's mansion to review the day's events. The team was in a circle: Gogo on the couch's left arm; Fred on the right arm; Wasabi on the couch's center; Honey on the footstool directly in front of Gogo and; Tadashi on another footstool.

Baymax was plugged in on the wall, deactivated, recharging his batteries.

"Yeah Aunt Cass we're fine." Hiro assured his aunt. "We'll just be reviewing our progress at Fred's." He added.

"You better!" Cass reminded. "If I see even a single singe on your faces, you both will be grounded!" She threatened.

"Well…" Hiro trailed off as he looked at his team, especially his older brother. "I'll fill you in later." He stated. "Just don't worry, okay Aunt Cass?"

"Fine." Cass reluctantly relented. "You better tell me everything young man."

"I will." Hiro assured. "Love you."

"Love you too."

As soon as the conversation ended Hiro joined the circle and sat on the footstool beside his older brother.

"Aunt Cass said that if we show up home with singes, we are so grounded." Hiro started off flippantly as he glared at this brother.

"Look I'm sorry guys." Tadashi apologized. "Something had to be done." He reasoned. "Someone has to help."

"Seriously Tadashi, that's like your catchphrase already." Fred pointed out. "We-"

"In any case, we should start the investigation." Hiro rudely cut Fred off as he got off his phone. "Before the police confiscated the metal parts of the robots earlier, I managed to take some pictures with megabot." He explained as he activated his phone's holographic feature and displayed the different photos he took. "

Everyone looked at each other awkwardly as Hiro started the investigation. They can't help but notice how the younger Hamada brushed everything off and immediately went to investigate the events.

"There's one common trait among these metals." Hiro stated his observation as he zoomed in on each metal parts until the Krei Tech insignia was visible. Considering what happened in the past, we can't just pin the blame on Krei." He stated as he popped up an image of the CEO.

"I agree." Tadashi nodded. "We can't jump to conclusion given the amount of evidences we currently have." He stated as he stood up and went beside his younger brother. "There's also one thing I've noticed." He continued as he fiddled with the holographic screen and showed the different images of the robot. "These here, here and here." He pointed to the different images. "Have similarities to some of Baymax's parts."

"Now that you mention it." Hiro muttered as he put his fingers on his chin and frowned. "They do look similar." Hiro agreed. "Weren't there parts you machined at school would only respond to certain lines of codes?"

"Yes." Tadashi answered. "Only you and I have a copy of those." He supplied as he backed off of the screen. "

"Then that's a non-issue." Gogo interjected as she stood up.

"But guys!" Fred inserted. "What if Tadashi's right?" He offered as he went to his book shelf and retrieved a few comic book. "What if someone was able to replicate the codes that Baymax has?" He reiterated his question as he threw comic books at the other members of the team, which they promptly caught.

"That is indeed a possibility." Honey agreed as she flipped the pages of the book she received.

"Then let me ask this." Gogo rolled her eyes. "Has anyone seen the codes you made Tadashi?" She asked the older Hamada. "Has anyone got a very good look at Baymax's blueprints?"

"Frankly no." Hiro answered. "Ever since the microbots, I made sure to secure our codes and blueprints." He added as he closed his phone's holographic feature.

"Sophia had a glance on them once." Tadashi admitted. "She was just rearranging the papers she scattered in the lab." He added as he sat down. "Not enough to retain it to memory." He finished.

"Yeah, yeah we get that." Gogo dismissively said. "There's something that needs immediate attention." She added as she glared at the Hamadas. "Can we address that, like right now?"

"Oh yeah, we need to call Krei." Hiro ignored the statement. "Tadashi can you make an appointment with him?" He asked his older brother as he sat down and placed his phone on the table. "We need to ask him about the metals with his company's logo emblazoned on."

"I can." Tadashi nodded.

"Okay, can Wasabi and Gogo confront him about them?" Hiro asked. "While Honey, Fred and Tadashi continue the search for Sophia." He suggested. "I'm going to investigate something further, especially the similarities that Tadashi pointed out."

"Hiro, why don't you go on ahead?" Honey suggested as she approached the youngest member. "Don't you have those assignments to pass to Professor Lebur?" She reminded.

"Crap!" Hiro cussed.

"Hiro!" Tadashi called out.

"Yeah, yeah." Hiro rolled his eyes. "Ow."

At the word, Baymax was activated. He was in his healthcare companion form. He waddled in front of Hiro and stated his pre-programmed spiel about being a healthcare companion as well as scanning the young Hamada for injuries.

"Baymax suit up."


As soon as Hiro left, everyone looked at Tadashi. Some were glaring while others were looks of pity.

"You know, he was really devastated when you went in." Wasabi voiced out. "I mean I get that you want to help." He added as he looked at the door where Hiro went through.

"You didn't think things through." Gogo bluntly added.

"Gogo!" Wasabi chided.

"What?!" Gogo glared. "He needs to know the cold hard truth." She defended. "And that truth is we all felt betrayed." She coldly revealed. "I thought for sure the things we said to you about how your brother acted during absence would finally break you off that altruistic attitude of yours."

"I'm sorry Tadashi but I agree with Gogo." Honey somberly joined in. "After the fire, Hiro wasn't the same." She added.

"What was I supposed to do?" Tadashi questioned. "Should I have just left that person to die?" He challenged.

"Yes." Gogo bluntly answered.

"Excuse me?!" Tadashi glared. "Unbelievable!" He growled.

"Tadashi calm down." Wasabi coaxed the Hamada. "Getting angry won't help the situation."

"I am calm." Tadashi insisted. "Don't worry, I am calm." He assured his friends.

"For all its worth, we agree with Gogo's statements." Honey voiced out. "

"Government workers would issue a suspension on rescue operations when things are too risky to continue." Wasabi added.

"Look I'm sorry okay!" Tadashi apologized in an exasperated tone. "But I just can't leave that man to die" He argued. "I just can't!" He shouted.

"Would a be enough?!" Gogo shouted back. "Would a sorry ease our pain?!" She continued shouting. "Would a sorry ease the guilt in your aunt's conscience?!" She added. "Would a sorry save your brother from the days of pain and grief?!" She continued. "TELL ME TADASHI HAMADA, WOULD A SORRY BRING YOU BACK TO LIFE?!"

"Gogo calm down!" Wasabi joined in on the shouting match. "Can we resolve this without being charged with Peace Disturbance by the authorities?"

"No worries Wasabi." Fred chimed in. "The room is actually sound proof."

"Not helping Fred." Wasabi growled.

"Wasabi is right." Honey nodded. "We can resolve this issue without resorting to shouting." She finished.

"No." Tadashi finally answered. "But I figured you guys would be able to help Hiro and Aunt Cass go through the process of grief."

"Dammit Tadashi." Gogo growled. "Do you really think we don't care about you?" She questioned. "For pete's sake we grieved for you Tadashi!" She groaned. "You and I briefly dated Tadashi, you and Honey just broke up due to differing priorities." She reminded. "Do you really think we won't be devastated with your death?"

"The subject of relationships aside, Hiro shut us out man." Fred added. "He won't talk to us when you were declared dead." He reminded. "Despite the many initiatives we did to initiate contact with your brother."

"You know I can kind of get why Hiro won't let you join in the first place." Gogo stated, noticeably calmer than earlier. "And this was it." She sighed. "Fred, can you let Tadashi sleep here for the night?" She asked.

"Sure." Fred nodded.

"What?" Tadashi questioned.

"I'm pretty sure Hiro don't want to see your mug right now Tadashi." Gogo hypothesized. "After the stunt you pulled." She added. "But I'm going over to him, I can't even begin to imagine what he's going through."

"I'll drive Tadashi the first thing in the morning." Wasabi volunteered. "That is if it's okay with Fred that Honey and I would crash for the night?"

"Sure thing." Fred nodded. "You can use the rooms you've used before."
