Chapter 3: A Goodbye Kiss
HIRO
"No… No, No! What are you doing here? You have to go! Really!" Hiro waved both of his hands at the four figures that were coming down from the white van
"Dude… What are you doing here?" Wasabi said raising a brow at Hiro.
Quick, think of something! "Nothing just went for a…" he trailed off as Gogo walked past him. He just couldn't handle her purple streaks on her hair.
"What is doing Baymax in a Carbon Fiber armor?"
"I even know Karate!" said the incredulous robot at the scene they were pulling up.
"HIRO… EXPLANATIONS NOW!" Everybody was able to sense the anger on her voice, determined to find out the truth. Why was this "kid" roaming around the city, at midnight and at the top of that, with a robot dressed on a combat armor?
"You guys need to go! You don't understand!" Hiro tried to hush them away, nervous and scared of the strange man with the mask.
"No, Stop pushing us away Hiro. We are here for you, that's why Baymax contacted us." HL said putting a hand on his shoulder trying to calm down the little boy… well… after all, the little boy of the team.
"Those who suffer a loss require help from friends and loved ones." The robot said extending his arms trying to motion everybody on the group. Hiro tried to interrupt him but every effort was futile "Who would like to share his feelings first?"
Hiro was trying to convince everybody but he was being ignored by the group, even Gogo.
Great! JUST GREAT! The guy with the mask is literally behind us. What if something happened to them or most importantly…? Gogo! I just can't! YOU REALLY BLEW IT THIS TIME HIRO! He was carried away staring at her. She was able to sense it but didn't say a thing. She doesn't want Hiro to be bullied because of it, besides, if a word comes out from her mouth right now, she would end up lashing out against the boy. Now both were staring at each other she's cute/He's cute. Both were woke up by Fred.
"ME… ME! I'll go!" Fred said jumping, excited at the idea.
"Hi my name is Fred and it's been… Holly mother of megazord!" Everyone looked and saw a masked mad lifting a container.
"Am I the only one seeing this?" Fred incredulously asked as HL raised her phone to take a picture. This clearly infuriated the man. He lifted the container and threw it to crash our six heroes.
"Aaaaaaaaah! Oh my god! NO! NO!" Wasabi was holding his head with his hands screaming like a girl, at some point everyone turned to him. Fred was obviously containing a laugh while the others giggled on how he reacted. Everybody snapped back to the world wondering why that thing didn't smash them into oblivion, just to see that Baymax stopped the blow and now was holding the container.
"GO!" Hiro yelled and without hesitation, everybody stood on their feet and started running to Wasabi's van. "Baymax, get…" He was stopped as Gogo went back for him, grabbed his hand and carried the boy to the van. Both blushed but there was no time to hide it.
"HIRO! WHAT THE HELL WHERE YOU THINKING? WHO IS THAT GUY? WHY IS BAYMAX IN AN ARMOR? YOU GOT ME WORRIED!" Every bit of the yelling was sincere but how the last part came from her mind was weird. Hiro noted her cheeks getting red but.
"So, you DO care about me!" Hiro said trying to tease her but expecting another answer from the girl.
"Just get into the van and put your seatbelt!"
"No, Baymax can take care of him. Just let me…" The armored robot came crashing into the van, fortunately for them, the only heavy part of the robot was the armor so the only part that was severely damaged was the roof. The five of them looked at each other, shocked faces and pale skins.
"Aaaamm… good bye!" Surprisingly enough, Wasabi skills at driving where outstanding and with a swift movement, he turned the back of the car towards the masked man and rolled away. He had good reflexes and knew the city like the palm of his hand, but countless alleys and turns were not enough too lose the man.
"That mask, that suite. Oh my god! We are being attacked by a supper villain people! How cool is that... erm well… it's scary of course but cooooool." Wasabi suddenly stopped slamming Fred against wasabi's seat while HL slammed against Gogo. Hiro was sitting comfortably as he was wearing his seatbelt and secretly thanking Gogo for that.
"Why are we stopped?" Gogo asked Wasabi, clearly scared because a masked man was pursuing them.
"The light is red!" The OCDness of Wasabi was cool sometimes but this was too much.
"Ok Wasabi… THERE ARE NO RED LIGHTS ON A CAR CHASE!" She yelled at him as hard as she could scaring everybody on the van.
The light turned and green and again without hesitation he shot through the street top speed. Unfortunately on that stop, the masked man was able to gain some ground on them.
"Why is he trying to kill us?" Wasabi spoke to himself loud enough for everybody to hear his words. He lowered the window of his door and took out his head to talk with the mysterious man. "Aaaamm… Why are you trying to kill us?" Suddenly, the man stopped.
"Classic villain! We've seen too much!" Fred was way over his head with the villain stuff.
"Let's not jump into conclusions! We DON'T KNOW if he is trying to ki…" HL was interrupted by Fred.
"Caaaar" Fred screamed
"Ok… HE IS TRYING TO KILL US!" HL panicked and didn't notice she screamed into wasabi's ear taking the ability to hear from him for some valuable seconds.
Wasabi was able to dodge the projectile, turned right and continued driving.
"Did you just put your blinker on?" Gogo asked clearly annoyed.
"You have to indicate your turn! IT'S THE LAW!" he defended himself.
"That's it!" She was pissed now. She took out her chewing gum from her mouth, threw it out of the window, tightened Wasabi's seat belt, and pulled the seat backwards so she was able to drive properly. In the matter of seconds she took the steer and pushed the van to her limits.
Wow! That was amazing. He was staring at her mindlessly. Hiro was amazed but, of course he is in love of a speed addict.
Turn Right
OK Gogo… you can do it!
Turn Left. This time the masked man was able to decipher their path and cut them off leaving them in a "dead-end" street.
Oh no! You are not going to stop me! Gogo quickly triggered the hand break, drifted and by mere luck, the way the microbots were positioned made the van jump in the air and land in a bridge. That gave them a clear path to continue, but they weren't elusive enough, soon the masked man was behind them again.
Phew! I thought that would be the end. She is just… just… so great! Hiro kept staring at her not realizing that a pair of eyes were spying on him through the mirror that is between the two front seats.
Look at his smile! HE IS SMILING AGAIN! YAAY! Oh no… why is he staring at me? HE IS SMILING BECAUSE OF ME? She got distracted.
"Did we finally loose him?" HL asked apparently recovered from her previous panic attack.
"LOOKOUT!" Wasabi yelled but it was too late, they were engulfed in a tube-like figure by the microbots literally they were seeing the light at the end on the tunnel.
"We are gonna make it!" HL cheerfully said.
"We are not gonna make it" Wasabi answered obviously scared.
"We are gonna make it!"
"We are not gonna make it"
"We are gonna make it!"
And yes! They made it but they were launched into the sea. The van started to sink, the weight of the five of them, Baymax and the car's motor were just dragging them into the bottom faster. Everybody was desperately trying to free themselves from the seatbelts but every attempt was futile. They were running out of air.
HIROGO
If this is how I'm going to die… then… He tried to get closer to Gogo. Everybody was struggling but he had another concern. Slowly but surely he got closer and she noticed his effort, she gave a questioning look to him. Wondering what was he doing but that made her react poorly at what was about to happen.
Now or never Hiro.
He leaned into her and gave her a kiss.
Whoa… Whoa whoa! What the? Why is he kissing me? Oh no! He is saying goodbye. Her inside was crying, but there was something different…
Even though the water was ice cold he felt a warmth run through his body and took this opportunity to give her the last few gulps of air he had. She felt it. She felt more air within her, this would give her valuable seconds.
No Hiro! Why did you do it! I will get you out of here! Hiro…please don't fade away. Not you…please… That was the answer to her question. She was in love of a 14 year old boy, who saved her life through a kiss (oh the irony)
He was fading but with a smile on his face, at least, the last thing he would see would be her admirable brown eyes. She was desperate now, she wanted to be with him, do something. Take everybody out of the car and stay alive.
Ok Hiro stay with me! I'll take you out of here! The seatbelt was so jammed that it wouldn't budge with Gogo's strength.
With a crack, the seatbelt released her. Finally! Ok Hiro your turn, we are almost out! Please don't fade! She was about to grab Hiro but was pulled away by a hand.
NO! NO! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? HE IS DYING THERE! LET… ME… GO… HIRO! HIROOOOOO!. She was fighting with the little strength she had left. She couldn't just leave him there at the edge of life and death. She kicked, threw punches, tried to swim against the mysterious man.
No please! She was crying now. He gave her a kiss, a goodbye kiss Let me die with him…
HIIROOOO!
