The next day:

Hiro was moving through the hospital halls slowly, the stuff at the reception told him where his classmate was, he had to pass by several halls till he reached her hospital room in a sense he had to pass throw many sections of the building and in all cases he could tell why the girl was uncomfortable around sick people. The feeling was now mutual in his case as well now and to think she was overreacting when it was the first time in the period of illnesses, never will he comment on that the sight was of course, uncomfortable. He arrived at her room without much problem holding the special treat his aunt baked for her. Slowly opening the door he could notice that the girl was still unconscious and was tied to a device where her heartbeat was monitored by the look of it the rate was very normal meaning no peril. Even with that the teen genius was still worried about her, the fight wasn't something he wanted and probably she didn't wanted that as well, with a train of emotions in him she slowly and silently took a chair to seat near the bed where the girl was laying with her eyes closed. Taking a deep breath he decided it was time for him to speak.

"Karmi, I don't know if you can hear me now. But I want to apologies for the many things that happened between us in the past; it is true that I was jealous and probably still am. It is true that I was jealous for the fact that you were better than me at something; I guess this feeling is something everyone could have because they don't want to admit to one that they also have flaws. And it is true I couldn't say how things are in reality with the hero things but just for you to know this was in the sense of not endangering you or everyone else around. This is also for the fact that I wanted to be a friend not your enemy." Hiro said placing his hand on the bed close to her hand.

"I never wanted this to happen to you in any way and I wish that you could forgive me for this." Hiro said closing his eyes with sadness before feeling something a soft over his hand, he noticed that it was the girl's hand over his and the girl was looking at him with her eyes that opened slowly.

"It is me who must apologies to you. It is me who had accused you for things that weren't true and wanted to show that I am better then you, not seeing my own flaws. That spirit of Nightmare was right in several aspects I was blinded by the fact that I wanted to show that I am better then you because I was the first young genius before you at SFIT. That demon showed me how things are and I want to say that I am sorry for how I treated you. You wanted only to be my friend and help me and I rejected it. I am sorry." Karmi started tears coming out from her eyes.

"Karmi I came here to make you feel better. Listen I am not angry at you, not anymore part of the blame for what happened in the past was also mine. I also wanted to show off true plus in other cases I do recognize that in the case of been a hero I didn't wanted to tell so you wouldn't be in danger. In a sense I lost too many people I care, my parents and Tadashi in a sense I couldn't bear to lose more." Hiro said holding her hand.

"I know, she showed me everything, in a sense we really are more similar then we though. Both young geniuses, stubborn and for that we were bullied during our younger years at school. I shunned people mostly because of this; I was ridiculed at school for my passion on bacteria and viruses try to use me to do their work then shun me for thinking I am no more useful and so on."

"This happened to me as well I shunned the people during my younger years for that, however Tadashi and Aunt Cass helped me to get over those things and now with the others Wasabi, GoGo, Honey Lemon, Fred even Baymax I managed to get over this. I do recognize that what I had done with my work and bot fighting was mostly for trying to shun myself from it; however what you did was in a sense wiser then what I did before joining SFIT."

"I don't think shunning people was wiser either." Karmi said thinking about what happened yesterday.

"It is weird, after all that happened here we are making amends to one another, this after a giant shock with something that almost ended both our lives."

"Probably it should have to happen one day, never though however that it will be this early, after facing a spirit of nightmare." Hiro said smiling to her and she returned the gesture.

"True and never thought that out of all people my fabled Captain Cutie was near me all this time, really I was a fool in this regard." Karmi said and both laugh at the irony.

"Yeah but still are you disappointed about the fact that it was me all alone?"

"No, not at all you had your reasons why you haven't told me, it was expected anyways after what I did." Karmi said turning to her hand and looked at her forearm.

"The sign is still present." Hiro said noticing the forearm.

"It couldn't be removed I will have it for the rest of my life although now it is redundant and useless it will always remind me of those days." Karmi said shamed turning to the boy near her "Plus, look what I have done to your face."

"Karmi this wasn't your own doing it was the Yami-akumu that did this, you haven't done anything although she controlled your body it wasn't you who did this." Hiro said placing his hand at his cheek.

"Maybe but still I should have been more careful with it I used the book to help you during a fight, but it was a trap. And I haven't even thought about it I simply rushed in." Karmi said.

"It fooled many I might have probably done the same but now GoGo and Wasabi put it in a place where no one will find it for a long time. You will not have to encounter it again." Hiro said holding her hand.

"Maybe but who knows if this will happen again I don't want anyone to go throw this, not again."

"Even if it will be again let's hope this will be after a very long time. You do not need to worry about this, not anymore." The boy said, and the girl now overcome by joy extended her hands and pulled him into an embraced surprising the boy who couldn't do anything but return the gesture.

"You really are my hero. Thank you." Karmi said this time shedding tears of happiness.

"With pleasure." Before both started to slowly let go.

"You know, after all this stuff that happened and now knowing you much better, how about we put our rivalry behind for good." Karmi said smiling.

"You mean stopping competing with one another, squabbling and things like this?" Hiro asked.

"We can still be rivals at school, at who the best genius is and how good we do in our own fields but aside from that I was thinking more like, stopping the state of conflict, the squabbling and things like this." Karmi said.

"Meaning trying to become friends, I would really love to." Hiro said smiling.

"And by the way when are you suppose to be allow to leave the hospital? We might probably try to go somewhere to spend some time."

"I will tell you when I find out." Karmi said smiling.

"And by the way, my aunt baked something special for you, Granville and I told her a variant of what happened we couldn't actually tell that your body was under the control of someone abnormality." The boy said placing the box on the table near the bed.

"Thanks I will come by to your house to thank her for this, and by the way I believe I also need to give you something, for saving me after everything." Karmi said.

"What exactly?"

"Come closer." Hiro moved his head closer to her and without knowing he felt her hand on his left cheek while a pair of lips was pressed on the right near the battle injury, the boy was left speechless by what just happened. The same girl that was his rival had just kissed him.

"I don't know what to say."

"You don't need to say anything; you deserved it more than you think Hiro." Karmi said smiling to him while both embraced one another once more. Not knowing that aunt Cass was watching them from the door smiling now believing her nephew found a girlfriend at last.

In the meantime:

The rest of the team managed to get to Hideki's teahouse where they had told him and his wife what happened during the fight and of course they also told them that the demon was locked and the book was now somewhere one wouldn't manage to find it easily. They had to however tell them that Mia was killed by a soldier of the nightmare during the battle implying of course how the spirit had worked. For the guardians it was enough to know those details knowing that in the hopes of preventing one from falling to the spirit's side once more.

"It is sad that Mia had been killed on the others of Yami-akumu but this is how things are when coming to falling into darkness." Hideki said.

"Even with that you have done what needed to be done to prevent more harm from happening." His wife said.

"Hey this is the stuff that we do prevent things from getting worst and stopping villains." Fred said smiling.

"Indeed and I want to thank for bringing my sister back as well."

"You said bringing your sister back?" Wasabi asked confused, the Japanese man brought out the main medallion and united it with the other 2 crescent medallions and out from it a bright light came, that went near the man the light then disappeared to reveal Shinabi having both pals united having a calm smile on her face.

"May Peace and serenity, be with all of you."

"And you all as well." Honey Lemon said.

Several days later after the event things were back to normal with several small changes Karmi and Hiro put their state of conflicted rivalry behind and started to spend more time together alongside the others in the group and since now she knows about the fact that they were Big Hero 6 she vowed to keep their secret hidden. Although she was still writing her stories the last one been almost an accurate description of what happened she had changed the names of Wasabi from Chop Chop to Fire Blades and Hiro from Captain Cutie to Purple Knight. The simple fact that the two teen geniuses had at last made amends and became friends was wonderful news for both Granville and Honey Lemon.

It is to know the fact that they still compete with one another in their fields of study and work, but they are no more at each other's throats and behave like enemies that for many was both a surprise and relief. At a weekend both Hiro and Karmi were now in a park walking slowly in the evening and enjoying the quit time before Saturday.

"It is amazing how much change could come from an event like what happened to me." Karmi said.

"Yesterday it almost seemed like we were at each other's throats and now here we are walking in the park in the evening like friends." Hiro said.

"Guess none of us believed or imagined this when we met for the first time." Hiro said taking a seat on a bench and the girl followed.

"We probably didn't believed many things that will happen." Karmi said while the boy went thoughtful while looking in the horizon at the setting sun.

"What is it?"

"Nothing, I was just thinking." Hiro started. "In a way during the night with the new moon before that event, the servant of the demon came near SFIT we were attempting find her to ask for answers to save you. However she got me first before the rest could arrive and told me that the hero business will not be for too long in my case, because it is dangerous and who knows when I could get killed and in most cases I could easily be forgotten because it wouldn't ensure a long lasting legacy and in a sense this got me on my thoughts for some time. Either it was to disturb me or something else but in a way she was right, been a full time hero might not ensure too much. I need to think about my future of what to do after graduating. Plus my aunt had, it hard my parents are gone as well as my brother I don't want her to suffer anymore thinking that she would lose me."

"In a way I do have to admit that she was right, despite the fact that she was serving the one who wanted to posses me, been a super hero might not give much because other heroes could come after that." Karmi said knowing that what he said was true.

"However." She took him by his hand.

"In my view you are doing the right thing to use your genius to be a hero now at this moment. Others might use a genius like yours for other stuff that isn't healthy to the society but you on the other hand you are using it for the good of others this is no small deal. It is also true that you need to ensure your own legacy to be remembered, something I also intend to and I do have to admit that you can do it and you will manage one day at the right time to do great things." Karmi said smiling to him and he smiled back.

"Thanks and I am sure you will do the same, one day as well." The boy said smiling before their view turned to the horizon that was in a way getting darker and darker.

"Maybe we will have to leave soon, I don't think you like the night very much now after, you know what. Plus I heard it will be a night with new moon." Hiro said.

"Not quit in a sense I have nothing to fear now after what happened. Plus the view is really beautiful." The girl leaned on the boy's shoulder, each now been very relaxed and in a sense they no more need to worry at that moment about anything; demons or their acolytes, mutants or genius mad scientists with their creations. Not even Hiro's aunt who was at that moment taking numerous pictures of the 2 concealed behind the vegetation in the park with her phone.

The End.
