Merry Christmas! Well here's another chapter! Thank you guys so much for reviewing and adding this story! Like I said before it motivates me to keep writing this as quick as possible for you guys. Enjoy!
"Tadashi why are we at you're nerd school!?" Hiro did not want to be here at all. This was disappointing. His brother wakes him up in the morning to take him about for breakfast and this is where he ends up!? He just wanted to eat.
"Chill out you big baby, I just need to grab something and then we'll head out."
"Ugh! You better make it quick! I'm starving!" A rush of wind hit Hiro that caused him to jump back. He caught of glimpse of someone on a bike. It was a girl. Hiro saw the figure take her helmet off to reveal her purple streaked hair. She was Asian, he could tell. She tossed her helmet to the side and put her bike on a rack. Tadashi was the first of the two to approach the woman. "Hey Gogo." Gogo looked up from the sound of her best friend's voice and smirked. "Like my new ride?"
"It's getting there, gosh how do you handle that much speed?"
Hiro noticed that Tadashi and Gogo where really close friends. He turned his attention back to her bike hanging on a rack. He carefully walked over to the bike to check out the wheels. He reached out his hand to touch the bike. "Electro-mag suspension."
"Who's the kid?" Hiro jumped at the sound of Gogo's voice. She scared him already.
"Gogo, this is Hiro." She walked her to Hiro and took her own examination of the boy. As she got closer Hiro tensed up and tried not to make eye contact. When he did, their faces were almost two inches apart. He felt his cheeks grow warm and can feel the red color take over. He saw the girl's purple eye shadow, light lip gloss covering her lips and… bubble gum? He could smell it alright. For someone intimidating, she can be cute. "So you're the monkey Tadashi was trying to tame!"
"Huh?" Gogo slapped the back of Hiro back and he yelp in pain. She threw her arm around his neck and brought him close. She whispers, "Take it easy on your brother before he starts to grow some gray hairs."
"I heard that! Come on Hiro let me introduce you to someone else." The trio walked over to another station across from Gogo. "Ok mini-Dashi, why don't you cross over that caution line tape." Before Hiro could attempt, he was pulled back from a man in dreadlocks. He looked up to the man and saw that he was huge. If this guy fell on him he'd be dead!
"Careful kid! Didn't you see the line?" From behind they could both her Gogo laughing hard in the back. "Good job Wasabi! Now what about that machine you left it unattended." She teased him by walking close to the machine.
"Get away!" He pulled her away and threw her over to Hiro. "I wasn't going to go through it dummy. That's Wasabi, he may look all tough guy like but he's really a coward."
"Shut up Gogo! So Hiro, you're Tadashi's brother right?"
Hiro nodded. "Nice to meet you! Now I want you to catch this apple kay?"
"Oh ok." Hiro puts out his hands ready to catch the apple. Wasabi grabbed an apple and tossed it through the machine for Hiro. What Hiro didn't expect was for the apple to cut into hundreds of thin pieces in midair.
"Wow, how do you that?"
Wasabi revealed the green lasers on the machine. Hiro was impressed, he never thought he would see a physics student actually attempt this. He looked over to Wasabi's desk. Everything was neatly label on his desk. He could he was an organized person. Wasabi saw Hiro staring at his desk. "It's a system. A place for everything and everything in its place." Gogo tiptoed behind Wasabi and then attacked the desk taking a tool which caused a mess. "Need this!" She took off running fast and Wasabi charged after her. "You can't do that! You ruined my system!" The two continued their chase around the lab as the brothers watched. A sweet voice broke their silence. "Are they at it again?"
"Yup," Tadashi replies, "Gogo is pushing his buttons."
"Oh Gogo." The tall blonde girl looked down next to Tadashi to find Hiro. Hiro saw the woman look at him with interest. One cute girl was enough for him to be stared at. "You must be Hiro!" She crashed into Hiro giving him a tight hug. "I can't believe I finally get to meet you! Oh my gosh you're even cuter than I imagined!' She gave a huge kiss on Hiro's cheek which caused him to blush immediately. He touched his cheek and looked at his hand to see a leftover of her pink lip gloss. He was a goner. "I'm Honey Lemon, but you can just call me Honey. Oo-oo I should show you my experiment!" She dragged him into her station and excitedly prepared her chemicals. "You are gonna love this! She threw in the ingredients to make a spray that she mentioned she will spray on a ball of tungsten carbide. "So I spray it on and voila! It's PINK!" Okay. She's crazy, Hiro thought.
"So what happens next?" Hiro asked curiously.
"Watch!" Honey poked her figure out to touch the ball and boom! The ball disintegrated into dust.
"Wow" Hiro was speechless.
"I know right!? It's totally cool!" She took out her cell phone and snapped a selfie of her and the brothers. She innocently looked over to Hiro. "I like taking pictures." she states normally.
"You guys are awesome! This is so cool!" His excitement starts to build up. This was the first time Hiro openly shared his excitement to new people without being shy. "But I have to ask...why the names?"
"Fred came up with them." Gogo said, returning from her little game of "Tire Wasabi out."
"Fred?"
"Yup! Hi Hiro!" Hiro came face to face with Kanju monster costume and screamed as he fell to the ground. "Don't fright younger one I'm still human see?" Fred lifted the mouth of the monster to reveal his face. Hiro was still in shock on the ground. Fred lifted the Hamada back onto his feet.
"I didn't know you go to school here."
"I don't!" Fred said oddly proudly. Hiro opened his mouth to say something but then shut his mouth. "I am, however, the school mascot by day."
"And by night?"
"A school mascot." Hiro giggled. Typical Fred, hasn't changed a bit.
"But I still love science!" He crouches down to Hiro's level to whisper loudly. "I'm still waiting for Honey to come up with formula to turn me into a fire breathing dragon."
"How many times do I have to tell you? It's not possible to make something like that."
"Come on girl you're starting to sound like Wasabi with the shrink ray."
"That's because it's true."
"You guys have little faith in yourselves."
"So Hiro," Honey spoke to Hiro. "What you think of us?" Tadashi flinched at Honey's words. He did not expect to hear her say that to Hiro yet. Hiro glanced at all of Tadashi's friends. They all seemed like nice people. Crazy, but they look like they can accept Hiro for who he is. He looked over to Tadashi who had a hopeful look in his eyes. He could tell Tadashi was sure these people would love Hiro, now he wants Hiro to decide if he's ok with them. "You guys are pretty sick." The group cheered like a bunch of idiots as if they saw their favorite sports team win the championships. Hiro felt he might a chance in finally having friends and fit in.
Hiro walked into Tadashi's lab and saw how big it was compared to the other students. He looked all over the room to see that it was messy with papers spread out on the desks and tools out of their place. He stands in front of Tadashi and looks up to his face ready to see what his brother had been working on. "So...Where's your project?" Tadashi only held a roll of duct tape and cut a piece off to place on Hiro. Predicting the worst, Hiro starts to squirm away from his brother but it was too late after he felt a quick slap on the arm and hard yank.
"OW!" Hiro cried and retrieved his arm from his brother. Hiro held his arm thinking that cradling it would help him but he hears a beeping sound and something inflate behind Tadashi. Hiro silently stares at what seemed to be a white cuddly, marshmallow-looking robot. He observes the robot make its way to Hiro having him only take a small step back. The robot stopped and brought its hand to the air. "Hello, I am Baymax, your personal healthcare companion."
"Hiro I want you to meet Baymax."
Hiro just stood in his place in awe. "A robotic nurse?" He questions. Then his expression changes. "Wait...Baymax?"
"Yup!"
"Tadashi, did you build a robotic nurse after the friend I made since I was a kid?"
"Yeah, that's what inspired me."
"This is so cool!"
"Hello Hiro. It is nice to finally meet you. Tadashi has told me so much about you. I will scan you now." Baymax scans. "You appear to have a small epidermal abrasion on your forearm. Shall I apply some antibacterial spray?"
"Sure," he lets Baymax take over his procedure, "Bro this is so cool, you've done some serious coding on this guy."
"I programmed him with over 1000 medical procedures. He's gonna be very helpful."
"Tadashi what made you want to build this."
"You."
"Me?"
"I wanted to help people Hiro, and I also wanted to help you. With his programming, I can finally make sure you don't do anything stupid that can damage your health."
"Thanks nii-san." Hiro thanks sarcastically.
"No prob bro." Tadashi smiles cheekily.
"Hiro, Tadashi designed me to be your healthcare companion and for you to be my patient. Are you okay being held in my care?"
"Absolutely."
"It seems that you are in longer of assistance. I cannot deactivate unless you say you are satisfied with your care."
"Well then I am satisfied with my care." Baymax turned around and waddled back into his charging station.
"I'm am never going back to the doctor's."
"Ah, good morning Tadashi! I noticed you testing that a robot of yours. Oh. Who's this?" An old man appeared on the doorway of Tadashi's room.
"This is Hiro, my baby brother." Tadashi introduces proudly.
"I'm not a baby," Hiro muttered to Tadashi.
"Hiro? So you're the boy Tadashi mentioned with the bot fighting career. Tell me what kind of servos do you use?"
"Magnetic-bearing servos. You should how see how I put them together."
"Hey genius," Tadashi smacked the back of Hiro's head. He lets out a cry and a glare at his older brother. "He invented them."
Hiro snapped his head to face the man who was responsible in his inspiration of robotics. "So you're...Robert Callaghan? The Robert Callaghan-Callaghan's Law of Robotics?!"
"That's me." the professor replies ever so humbly.
"Why didn't you tell me bro?!" Hiro was frustrated at his brother but was still excited being in the presence of his influence. "I have read all of your books. I'm a huuuge fan! You're a really talented man."
"And I can see you are one too. Have you ever thought about applying to this school?"
"Well I-uh-" He is cut off by Tadashi. "I don't know professor. He seems pretty involved in his 'robot fighting career.'"
"Oh, that's a shame to hear."
Hiro froze at Callaghan's disappointment. Did he do something wrong? He didn't want to be looked down again. Maybe he should reconsider his decision. "Um...I am thinking about it."
Both Tadashi and Professor Callaghan faced Hiro. Tadashi was taken by surprise. Was it true? Was he really considering it? Professor Callaghan stepped forward and handed him a flyer from his clipboard to Hiro. Hiro took the flyer by the edges carefully and examined the cover of the page. SFIT hosts a showcase?
"If you come up with something that catches my attention, then you might just get in. But it's gotta be something that will wow me."
"Yes. O-of course sir, you won't be disappointed!"
Professor Callaghan takes his leave but stops to talk to Tadashi. "Keep up the good work. You and your brother."
"Why didn't you tell me Robert Callaghan worked at the school?" The boys were already outside of the school. They walked down a pathway in the park part of the school's campus.
"What? I thought you didn't care about my nerd school."
"Our nerd school." Tadashi stands still. "What?" Hiro questioned.
"I thought you said you didn't want to go to college."
"I thought maybe I can still change my mind."
Tadashi stared at his brother in disbelief. Hiro felt his self-esteem lower. Maybe he shouldn't apply at all if it made his brother feel uncomfortable. Suddenly, he felt a pair of hands touch his sides and being lifted off the ground. Tadashi spun his brother in the air several times and then fell to the ground when he tripped over his own feet. Luckily they landed on the grass and Tadashi was able to break Hiro's fall. They laughed at their own stupidity and Tadashi ruffled his hair. "You're finally putting the big brain of yours to use!"
"Yeah…..are we still getting breakfast?"
