I Never Left

by Sushi Hawkeye

Hiro had always been smarter than average. That didn't stop her from believing in the Guardians, though. Of course, when the explosion happened, she stopped believing in them. After all, weren't they there to protect Wonder, Memories, Hope, Dreams, and Fun? Now, her brother was gone. For a while, she had Baymax, but she'd lost him to the void. She's left alone... but is she really?

Ch 4: Snowflake

It was finally winter! Not winter break, but we had only a month to go anyways.

Aunt Cass was already decorating for Christmas, even if it was still the beginning of November. Baymax was starting to take some shape, but he still had some ways to go. I was still working on his skeleton.

It still hurt to remember that Tadashi was gone, but I was getting better. Building Baymax had helped a bit, knowing that I'm putting something that was part of Tadashi back together.

"Aunt Cass! I'm heading out!" I shouted out from the entrance to the cafe.

"Be careful Hiro, don't forget your scarf and muffs, wouldn't want Jack Frost to nip your nose!" she replied from behind the shop.

"Alright Aunt Cass! Bye!"

I giggled at the expression. Silly Jack, why would you nip noses? I smiled, walking the way to the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology. I pulled my blue scarf above my nose and my white ear muffs doubled as a headband for my always messy hair. It was terribly cold today, and I sneezed more than once, remembering what Aunt Cass said. Jack Frost, I giggled. A snowflake landed on my nose and I watched as it melted and another landed on my open hand. A memory surfaced from when I was 6 years old and already in third grade...
