I'm Not Giving Up On You Chapter 7
I do not own Big Hero 6 or any of its characters
Hiro began to stir; he felt something warm and comforting lying next to him. He thought that it was some sort of blanket or pillow but he could feel his hand was around it. It felt too solid to be either one of those things. It was moving too! Well a little, it was breathing! Hiro allowed his eyes to open a little but his vision was too bleary from his "nap." He brought his other hand to his face and rubbed his eyes. His vision and cleared and he felt his heart stop beating and his face turn red with embarrassment! He saw that Tadashi was sleeping next to him and he had one of his arms wrapped around him. This was so embarrassing for him! The fact that he accepted Tadashi's embrace and returned it made it even more embarrassing! He hadn't done something like this since he was little and when he use to have nightmares.
That's when he remembered the current situation he as in. He remembered Tadashi as "Yokai" and how he was technically kidnapped by his own brother. He looked around and saw that he was still in the same place he had been when he first woke up. He tried to think about what happened that caused him to black out. Then it all came back to him… he was talking to Tadashi about his missing memory and then he was getting a call from someone that he called his "employer"… then… the syringe! Great his own brother knocked him out… again! He wondered if this was going to be a common thread between them now. He hoped not.
He turned his attention back to his sleeping older brother, all of his fear and worry suddenly was placed by warm emotions. He saw how peaceful his brother's expression was and how gentle his touch was as his arm was still wrapped around him. Just like it had been before… before his brother became a psycho! He let out a sigh. He supposed that he couldn't really blame Tadashi for turning out like this. After all he just learned that his brother was suffering from amnesia and whoever his "employer" was must have been the one responsible for feeding him all these lies. He looked around the cell and he realized that the cell door was locked, which meant that Tadashi had the key on him!
"The key," he whispered.
If he could get the key then he could escape and check on his friends but he felt a sense of guilt though. Now that he knew his brother was alive and had no memory of his past self it felt wrong to leave him behind. While he promised himself that he wouldn't try anything until an opportunity presented itself… but this was an opportunity. He was so confused right now! Maybe there was a way though, Hiro remembered that he equipped his helmet with a communicator. If he could get to it then he could contact the team to make sure they were alright but he wouldn't tell them where he was though… not until he convinced Tadashi to come home with him. He would just keep it short and clear then put the helmet back before Tadashi woke up. If this were the case then technically he didn't betray Tadashi when it came to escaping.
He wanted to stay with Tadashi and he wanted to help his brother get his memory back. He would do that just as soon as his accomplished this task. He carefully stood up and removed Tadashi's arm around him. He placed it slowly on the bed and tip toed to Tadashi's sleeping form. Hiro saw that Tadashi's coat had pockets and he immediately knew where the key would be. He cautiously placed his hand inside the pocket and managed to pull out the key without making a sound. Tadashi stirred a little and Hiro paused with the key in his hand. He stopped breathing but thankfully Tadashi didn't wake up. He let out the breath he was holding and carefully walked toward the cell door. He quickly unlocked the door without making any noise and slowly opened the door. It creaked a little but Tadashi didn't stir and he walked out of the cell. Hiro decided to lock the door again just in case and kept the key in his other hand. He walked toward Tadashi's desk and found Tadashi's mask and his armor particularly his helmet. His didn't want to risk Tadashi waking up by hearing him talking so he decided to go outside the building.
"At least I can get a good idea where our precise location is by doing that," Hiro whispered.
He warehouse's door were locked by a handle on the inside so Hiro carefully turned the handle and the doors opened. The sunlight blinded him but he welcomed it, he walked outside and saw that the warehouse was surrounded by old pieces of machinery. Some were covered in rust and plant life, they looked like they had been there for years. Hiro saw that there were tools and other pieces of equipment lying on the untamed grass. A large and wide fence surrounded the area and it had barbed wire on the top of it. Hiro regained his focus and got far enough from the door to make his call. He crouched down next to several pieces of machinery and begun to tinker with the helmet. With a few adjustments he managed to get his helmet working and he placed in on his head. His screen lit up and began to call Baymax; he knew the robot would still be at his team's side especially when they were injured during their fight with Tadashi.
"Hello Hiro," Baymax's voice answered as his face popped up on the screen. "Hiro is communicating with us through his helmet."
"Wait he's contacting us while he's with Tadashi?" Wasabi's voice asked.
"He's okay?" Go Go's voice questioned.
"The little man made it!" Fred's voice cheered.
"Hey guys," Hiro said loud enough so only they could hear him. "Is everyone okay?"
"Hiro," Honey's voice called out as he face appeared next to Baymax. "It is you? Oh thank goodness you're okay! Where are you? Where's Tadashi?"
"I can't talk too much guys, I'm on a time limit. Tadashi and me are fine but I can't tell you where-"
Hiro didn't have time to finish his statement as something lifted the machinery behind him. He froze with fear as he knew who it was even before he got a look of that person. He turned is head slowly around to face his captor and brother… Tadashi! There his brother was standing on top a swarm of microbots while wearing his mask.
"You've been a bad boy Hiro," Tadashi said.
"Ta… Tadashi," he gasped.
"Tadashi's there?" Fred's voice asked.
Tadashi heard the conversation Hiro was having with his friends and grew infuriated with Hiro's disrespect toward him. Tadashi used the microbots to knock the helmet off Hiro's head, the young boy fell to the ground and his helmet skittered across the grass. Tadashi pinned Hiro down using the microbots and collected the helmet using another set of microbots. He brought the helmet in front of his face; his mask was covering the scowl he had.
"I'm warning you all… stay away from Hiro! If you even try to come and find us I will personally see to it that you'll never see him again!" Tadashi stated.
"Tadashi? You wouldn't hurt Hiro!" Honey exclaimed.
"I never said I would hurt him, he's too important to me. If you so much as think about taking him away from me I'll just move us to another location, somewhere farther away from here."
"Tadashi no!" Hiro yelled as he struggled to get free from the microbots.
"Tadashi you can't do that! We're just worried about you, the both of you!" Go Go yelled.
"You're worried about us? There's no need to worry about me and there's no need to worry about Hiro either because I'm taking care of him. He holds the key to my past so I suggest that you stay where you are unless you want the both of us to disappear."
"Tadashi wait!" Wasabi exclaimed.
But it was too late, Tadashi had given them their warning and he threw the helmet to the ground. He used the microbots to create a big wave and then it collided with the ground smashing the helmet to pieces.
"Tadashi!" Hiro yelled.
"We don't need to worry about them anymore," Tadashi said calmly then turned to face Hiro. "Now time to deal with you."
Hiro's eyes widen with fear as Tadashi landed on the ground while it keeping his hold on him with the microbots. Hiro struggle some more but he felt the grip on him tighten, Tadashi leaned in to him. He couldn't see his face but he was more than sure that Tadashi was scolding him right now. He felt chills run down his spine.
"I told you to cooperate Hiro," he said in a stern voice. "That meant for you not to try anything… like escaping."
"I wasn't trying to escape! I just wanted to check up on them!" Hiro explained. "You don't understand!"
"Oh I understand alright. You were trying to escape from me."
"How did you even get out of the cell anyway?" Hiro asked while trying to loosen the microbots' grip on him.
"There's a thing called a spare key. Thanks to it I was able to get out easily and once I had my mask it made it easy to capture you again."
"Tadashi let go! I wasn't trying to escape and I really mean it!"
"I think you need to be taught a lesson Hiro. You've been very disobedient."
Tadashi lifted his arm up and Hiro stopped struggling as he was lifted into the air by the microbots. Tadashi began to walk by to the warehouse with Hiro in tow. Hiro was too frozen with to do anything now; he was frightened by Tadashi and the lesson he was going to teach him. He remembered in the past Tadashi would spank him whenever he got in serious trouble. The last time he did that was about two months ago when he caught him sneaking out to go bot fighting. Man was that a pain! Though that didn't tamper with Hiro's future bot fight tournaments. But this Tadashi wasn't that Tadashi so whatever he was going to do to him was anyone's guess.
Tadashi closed the doors and lead Hiro back to the cell, once they were inside Tadashi locked the doors. He then placed Hiro on the floor and removed his mask but he placed it inside his coat. He walked toward Hiro and the young boy felt his body tense. Tadashi reached out to him and pulled him to his face.
"How dare you try to escape from me!"
"I… I told you I wasn't going to escape… I just wanted to make sure my friends were safe and that they were okay. I didn't tell them where we were!"
"I wouldn't matter, one way or another they're not going to find us. Now time for your lesson."
Tadashi then pulled Hiro to the bed; he sat down first and bent Hiro over his knees. Immediately Hiro knew what he was going to do. He was shocked at the fact that even without his memory Tadashi was able to repeat his past actions. However, he found himself afraid again since this Tadashi was rougher and not as lenient. Tadashi removed his gloves and got a good grip on Hiro, he was surprised to see that he was struggling to escape again.
"How old are you Hiro?" Tadashi asked.
Hiro didn't answer as shock overcame him again, Tadashi would always spank him by his age. If he was five he got five spanks, if he was ten he got ten spanks… if he was fourteen is got fourteen spanks. Tadashi was still in there! However, once he didn't answer the first Tadashi became more impatient.
"If you don't answer the question you'll get extra."
"Fourteen. I'm fourteen," Hiro quickly answered.
"Fourteen…" Tadashi whispered.
After a few more seconds Tadashi brought his hand down, the first spanking! Hiro gripped the sheet of the bed and he closed his eyes. It still hurt like crazy! He was given another spanking, then another, then another, then another. The pain was too much for him to handle, it stung so bad. This seemed to go on forever but it ended after a couple of minutes. Tears began to leak out of Hiro's eyes and his grip on the bed sheets was tight. Tadashi saw the look of pain on Hiro's face and another memory came back to him.
"That hurt Tadashi."
"I know Hiro but you need to learn. You think I like to see you cry Hiro?"
"N… no."
"I don't like to see you in pain because I feel sad too."
"I know… I'm sorry Tadashi."
"I know Hiro, come here kiddo."
"I love you Tadashi!"
"I love you too Hiro!"
Tadashi began to rub Hiro's backside and then he ruffled his hair. Hiro stopped crying once he felt Tadashi's hand on his hair. It was comforting and he leaned into his brother's presence. Tadashi then pulled Hiro upward and moved him into a different position. Hiro was now sitting on Tadashi's lap and his older brother wrapped his arms around Hiro in a loving embrace. He held Hiro close to him and began to rock him like a baby. Hiro's tears returned and he planted his face into Tadashi's chest.
"Why do I feel so sad?" Tadashi whispered to himself.
