Chapter 3: Goodbye Tadashi

The next day Tadashi pinned a flier on Hiro's wall, that advertised the school's young inventor's fair.

"Anyone who can invent something that impresses Professor Callaghan gets into the school."

"This'll be a cinch." declared Hiro.

He opened it notebook, and picked up a pencil. But after a while there were crumpled up paper balls everywhere, and Hiro's head was on his desk.

"I got nothing."

"I figured this."

Just then their uncle came into the room.

"Boys." he said.

"Hey, Uncle Roy, what's up?" asked Tadashi.

"Turns out we forgot to paint the baby's room, and we need a place to put some of the stuff 'till it's finished, would you mind if we put it in here?" Roy wondered.

"Sure go ahead." answered Tadashi.

"Great, thanks." H

e set the crib, cradle, and baby blankets along the side of the wall, and left.

"Great, now how am I suppose to come up with an idea, when our room's full of baby stuff?" whined Hiro.

Tadashi grabbed him, and held him by his ankles, while the rest of him was on his back.

"What are you doing?"

"You need to look at things from a different angle." explained Tadashi, as he began spinning around.

While the room was spinning, his eye caught it little robot, and that's when he got an idea.

"That's it." he said.


He went down to their garage, and got to work. Days passed and Hiro kept working and working. Cass, Roy, and Tadashi often brought him meals, Tadashi's friends from the school came to help, and often he fell asleep while he was working.

Until one night the garage was filled with garbage cans of his inventions. He opened a bin, and showed Tadashi, and the two fist bumped. That night Cass and Roy drove Tadashi and Hiro to the school, for the presentation.

"Well, good luck, Hiro. We'll be in the audience watching you." said Roy.

"Yes, now come on Roy, I need to find the restrooms." Cass told her husband.

"Coming, Cass." said Roy, as he helped his wife up the stairs.

While the couple went inside, the group helped Hiro and Tadashi carry in the trash bins.

"You feel okay, Hiro?" asked Wasabi.

"Yeah, just great." answered Hiro.

"Yep, he's nervous." said Tadashi.

"No, I'm not." protested Hiro.

"Your knees are stiff, and I can see sweat starting to form on your forehead." pointed out Honey.

"Woman up, Hiro." advised GoGo.

"You need anything, water, deodorant, underpants?" asked Wasabi.

"Underpants, really? You are weird, Wasabi." spoke GoGo.

"I call it being prepared." he answered.

"Okay, we'll ignore that. You better get up on stage." Tadashi said to Hiro.

"Before you go up, photo op, everybody say Hiro." said Honey, as she pulled out her phone, and snapped a picture of the group.

But Hiro was a little nervous to get on stage, worried that his invention wouldn't be good enough.

"Hey, don't worry. You'll do great." encouraged Tadashi, as he handed him the microphone.

So Hiro took a deep breath and walked on stage. Everyone then looked at him.

"Uh, hello, my name's Hiro Hamada, and uh..." he started, then the microphone made that feedback noise.

He chuckled nervously, until he saw Tadashi in the audience giving him a thumbs up.

"This is a micro-bot." said Hiro, holding up a small back nanobot.

"I know it may not look like much but with this neural-cranial transmitter, it can do much more." He put a computer looking headband on his head.

Then out of the garbage bins flew tons and tons of microbots.

"They can be used for anything, construction, transportation, the possibilities are endless."

He demonstrated what the microbots could do. In the audience Professor Callaghan was impressed.

"And that's microbots." finished Hiro, and he took a bow.

Everyone clapped and cheered for him. As Hiro got down from the stage his family and friends came up to him.

"Hiro, that was awesome." complimented Tadashi.

"It truly was." delcared Professor Callaghan coming up to them.

"Thank you, sir." said Hiro.

"You have real potential, Hiro. I look forward to seeing you here." he handed Hiro a letter of acceptance.

"Wow, thanks." replied Hiro, looking at the letter.

"You really do have potential." a voice piped up.

Tadashi, Hiro, and Professor Callaghan looked up to see a man in a suit walking towards them.

"Alistair Krei. CEO of Krei Tech Industries. May I?" he asked, referring to the micro bot.

Hiro handed it to him, and he looked it over.

"You know, Hiro. I want to make you an offer, I want to buy your microbots. We're always looking for new things at the company." Mr. Krei offered.

"Be careful, Hiro. Mr. Krei here, doesn't really think before he buys. You best want to be cautious." warned Professor Callaghan.

"Uh, sorry, Mr. Krei, but my microbots aren't for sale." replied Hiro, politely.

"Well suit yourself." replied Mr. Krei, walking away.

"Mr. Krei, I believe that's my brother's." informed Tadashi.

Mr. Krei looked in his hand, to see he still had Hiro's microbot.

"Oh, sorry." he said, and tossed it back to Hiro.

A little later, everyone walked out happy that Hiro got in.

"Great job, Hiro." congratulated Roy.

"We're so proud of you." added Cass, pinching his cheek.

"Come on let's get some food, on us at the cafe." suggested Roy.

"You guys go on, Hiro and I'll be right there." said Tadashi.

"All right, see you two later." said Cass.

Tadashi and Hiro walked away from the building, and onto the bridge.

"Congrats, bro, and also I got to tell you something." said Tadashi.

"What that you knew I'd do great?" asked Hiro.

"No, that your fly was during the whole thing."

"Yeah, right."

Then he looked down.

"Why didn't you say something sooner?" he asked, zipping his zipper.

"I know you'll do great at this school." said Tadashi.

The brothers smiled at each other, when suddenly they heard an explosion, coming from the building.

They looked over, and saw the place in flames.

"Come on." said Tadashi, running to the building with Hiro behind him.

When they got close they saw all the people running away in terror.

"Where's Professor Callaghan?" Tadashi asked a civilian.

"He's still inside." she informed, and kept running.

Tadashi started heading inside.

"Tadashi, what're you doing?" asked Hiro.

"I have to save him." answered Tadashi, and he ran into the building, his cap flying off.

Hiro picked it up, and tried to go after him, but there was a massive explosion, and Hiro was knocked out.


A while later Cass, Roy, and the others had came back to the building when they had heard what happened. An officer told them that Hiro was in a nearby paramedic truck.

They all ran to the truck, and saw Hiro sitting there with his head down.

"Hiro, sweetie. Are you okay, where's Tadashi?" asked Cass.

Hiro looked up to reveal that he'd been crying, and he held Tadashi's cap in his hands.

It was then everyone knew what had happened.
