I was glad that Abigail had her bots focused on Callaghan, because that got me and Baymax to hone in on that dinosaur bot. However, with Callaghan losing control of what his bots should be doing, the task proved to be more dangerous than ever. The dinosaur bot turned around in millions of circles, slashing its tail in the air in random directions. Baymax had to duck millions of times as a result and unfortunately, we couldn't get in a clear path for a proper attack. Apparently, we weren't the only ones with this problem.
Honey Lemon and Fred were doing well with burning the material of the dinosaur bots, but it was hard for them to get a clear aim without them getting hurt in the process. Gogo and Wasabi were doing slightly better since they could cut the material so that they have less to deal with, but with the irregular movements they could get hurt with one wrong move. Tadashi's earth control seems to ground everything about the dinosaur to the earth—literally, he was able to slam the dino in up to its waist—while Clara, obviously invisible, started to do some serious martial arts to bust its brains out. I'll be honest, I didn't know she could do martial arts. But like everyone else, one wrong move, and they're gone.
"Back kick," Baymax recited to himself as we neared the bot, now able to get a clear path for attack and performing the moves to actually get rid of it. "Side kick. Knife hand. Hammer first." He bashed the bot's head with his launched rocket fist, but the bot didn't look too happy.
Suddenly, I heard Callaghan cackle. Abigail's bots must have been ridden of successfully. This was bad. Uh oh.
"YES!" he laughed. "NOW I CAN GET THOSE BOTS TO DESTROY THEM!" He straightened the mask on his face and glared hard at me and Baymax and everyone else. "IT'S DESTRUCTION TIME!"
"Oh no," Baymax said. The dinosaur bot threw a huge piece of wood down towards our heads but Baymax deflected from the impact with his fist. Suddenly, the dinosaur bot started to lunge and claw at Baymax.
"Thanks," I told him. "Now see if you can aim for his head again. We need to get rid of his control unit."
Baymax launched at the dinosaur bot's head again as is lunged, and launched his rocket fist so hard that the metal folded itself into its body. Now what remained of the bot screamed and started to self-destruct so that the separate parts started flying all over the place.
"Shrapnel! Look out!" I screamed. Baymax understood and ducked as the flying pieces of debris. Too much impact on his armour could be fatal as he could lose his abilities and upgrades. It had already happened once in Krei's portal. I don't want this to happen again!
When the last of the debris fell to the ground with a clatter and tinkle and a final BANG! I assessed the situation. The dinosaur bot we worked on was completely destroyed. More specifically, it destroyed itself due to that malfunction Tadashi warned us about. I understood that it acted out of behaviour, but didn't expect the result to be fatal. Tadashi did have malfunctions on Baymax but he could understand that. I suppose that's why he warned me about the malfunction here. I have never really seen them happen on this kind of robot before. Yikes.
As for the rest of the team—Honey Lemon and Fred's side were now destroyed. So were Gogo's and Wasabi's. However, Tadashi and Clara were still working on their dinosaur bot. I couldn't see Clara, but Tadashi was tiring out.
"HI YA!" Wasabi cried, running over and slicing the dinosaur in half. The dinosaur fell apart with a CLUNK on the ground.
Honey Lemon created one more chemical bomb that made the dinosaur bot explode into pieces that flew into the ocean, with the help of Fred's fire, while Gogo wheeled herself over the pieces to officially flatten them and call them debris. Tadashi opened up another hole in the earth and thrust the remains of the bot into it.
Callaghan looked at us, shocked. "THIS IS NOT THE END!" he roared. We all turned to him. He held up one more robot, a black one, about as big as Mochi.
"This bot produces only one fireball with heat and size as strong as the sun," he said. "I have been saving this for last. Goodbye, Hiro and Tadashi. You could have proven to be excellent students at the San Fransokyo Institute of Technology. But now, all of San Fransokyo would be mourning for your REAL deaths!"
He set the robot on his arm, took off high into the sky with hidden rocket boosters under his feet, took his aim, and fired. A small fireball began to emerge, then it grew in size until it was twice as big as Venus in that distance, and then I saw it descend to the earth like a fast-moving comet.
I stood my ground and stared him down, even if he was as tiny as a star in the sky. If I was going to die, it would be in defiance, it would be in true sacrifice, and it would be for the sake of saving my friends and all of San Fransokyo. At least this time, I have my brother with me.
Goodbye, Aunt Cass, I began to think in my head. I needed to think of my last goodbyes, and hopefully they would be reached to them by our funerals. Thanks for ten years of care. It wasn't for nothing. You have been one of my best friends and guardians, and I really enjoyed your hot wings. Goodbye Mochi, I'm sorry we never got a chance to reconcile. I hope you would forgive me for throwing you up the stairs that day. Goodbye to all the rest of my friends standing behind me—Honey Lemon, Gogo, Wasabi, Fred, Baymax, and Clara. Clara, I pass my ownership of Baymax to you. And hope you guys would be able to continue saving the world without me. And Abigail—thanks for letting me know that you're okay. I'm glad I saved you in the portal that other time. I felt Tadashi's arms wrap around me in protection for the last time. At least our deaths would not be in vain.
"NO!" I heard someone shriek. I couldn't tell who it was and I didn't want to know, because next moment when I looked up, the fireball was just within striking distance of me and Tadashi. I shielded my eyes, expecting the worst, but then a miracle happened. An invisible force pushed us aside just as the fireball made contact with the bridge and exploded with a BOOM!
I lost consciousness. Everything went black.
