Well this is the final chapter! Next time it will be in the new story, "Old and Forgotten". I will post that tomorrow morning because... Man it's late and I have another final tomorrow so... Here you go, sorry near the end it's all lazy writing. But thank you for all supporting and reviewing through the short story. Enjoy!
Tadashi stared at the robot in front of him. Sadness overcame him as he saw restraint and hatred in the eyes of the one he created that was like another little sibling that needed to be taught how to act.
He took a step closer. "If apologizing means being a coward in your dictionary, than that's fine with me." Tadashi sighed and watched his creation flinch back in disgust.
"We can fix this, Baymax. Please just come back with me and I'll fix your chip." He stepped another foot forward. Carefully balancing on the platform between them.
There were several whirring noises of the robot searching his data and codes. "I can assure you nothing is wrong with it. It is simple programming and protocols I am designed to follow."
"No, those protocols are meant to function with the nurse bot chip. Not by itself. Look around you, look what's happened, people are hurt because of this." Tadashi raised his arms up and walked towards him. "Please... Baymax."
The robot glared at him. "We were going to change the world together! You promised we would help people! I was doing what you told me to! And you abandoned me!"
Tadashi was sent skidding back at Baymax connected his fist his his programmers chest.
He regained his balance and looked over the edge then back at the robot. "I know, and I have to accept the consequences..." He stayed still as Baymax stormed over and picked him up by his neck. "I'll show you what consequences you'll have to face..."
...
Hiro cried and thrashed in his friends arms as they held him back from Callaghan.
"Why did you let him leave?!" The boy struggled and breathed heavily. Then stiffened as the copy of Baymax landed and nodded to the professor.
Hiro weakly tried to get away from his friends but they held him with an iron grip. "Let me go! I can help him!" He cried. He didn't want to even think about losing Tadashi.
Callaghan just shook his head and went over to the Big Hero 6 as Baymax went over and stayed next to them.
"There are something's in this world we must do alone Hiro. If you were to go to the old Baymax, you would most certainly be killed." The man looked at them all. "And Tadashi had told me that it was his creation. And therefore he had to fix it." He looked down. "-and it doesn't matter whether it was his fault or not." He glanced back up as he added . Watching Hiro close his mouth and looked away, subtly shaking with grief. He thought then looked up at Baymax.
...
"You know. There's something Hiro said to me that made me into this. And because you were presumably gone Tadashi... I had to follow the closest relative and he was my patient so I did what he said." Baymax leaned his weight on one foot that was braced on the beaten up Hamada.
Tadashi slurred a response and spit up blood before he wheezed. "You were just following orders." He coughed. "I have no reason to hate you for doing that." He grabbed Baymaxs foot weakly and smiled with bloodstained teeth. "You did your best, don't give up trying to going against what you were made to do."
...
Gogo stared at Hiro as the boy simply turned around and headed to the lab. A second ago he was screaming at them to let him go. Now he subtly walked into the institute.
He went straight to Tadashi's lab and dug through a small box. And pulled out an iron wire exoskeleton of the lower half of the body.
Hiro remembered his brother had built this for him when Hiro had broken his leg and Tadashi didn't want to see him hop around in crutches.
Hiro sighed and started to pull the exoskeleton around his leg and waist. He was going to get to Tadashi someway and not in a wheelchair.
...
Tadashi heaved as the robot held held him under foot and coughed.
Baymax grabbed one of the clamp by the neck and Tadashi cried out in pain as he felt the clamp being ripped out from where it connected on his body.
He screamed as the robot forcefully yanked out the cord and threw it off the bridge.
Tadashi panted and reached behind his back and felt blood steadily flow from the opening and suddenly felt light headed. He fell to his side and breathed heavily.
Baymax watched his creator and former friend struggle just to breath. This didn't feel right, watching him die. But it was for what he did.
-But why did he take it on Tadashi?
-Because he left us!
-He left unwillingly with Callaghan and was used as a weapon...
Baymax stood there as he watched Tadashi, a battle of his mind going on inside his head.
...
Hiro RAN outside of the building with his armor on. He was a little lopsided as he bolted and had fawn like steps. Before any of them could get him, Hiro threw himself on Baymax and activated the robot to fly. "About doing things alone Callaghan... Something's you have to do as a family." He said as he took off, little did he know Gogo was clinging to Baymax as he flew.
...
Tadashi struggled to get up as e heard something ripping through the air and saw a dot get closer and closer. "No... No! Hiro! What are you doing?!" He watched as the robot beside him aimed at the boy and the other. He cried out for the robot to stop but could only watch as the rocket fist flew at them then was hit away by a... Yellow disk?
Not Gogo too!"
...
Hiro was surprised they got this far but not as surprised as Gogo when robot on the bridge fired the fist and was hit away. Next to the robot aimed it's other weapons and fired.
Everything was evaded.
...
Tadashi watched as they rolled and dodged every incoming projectile. Then Ragnarok or the original Baymax. Activated wings and flew after them. Giving chase.
...
Hiro directed Baymax in the direction of the city, the buildings were used for cover and decoy as Baymax hit them. He quickly regretted his decisions and began ducking and dodging as much as he could. Yet the other robot was right of there tail.
"Hiro! Projectile!" It was too late, the rocket hit Baymaxs wing and they began to slowly decline and struggle to keep in the air. Baymax then turned back to the bride and boosted as they were shot down. All Hiro saw was water and was dragged up on shore with an annoyed looking Gogo and the rest of the team behind her.
Hiro rubbed his head and sat up. All that had been a blur, now they turned their attention silently to the original Baymax.
...
As Hiro had been flying, Tadashi had been planning. As Baymax flew near him, he lunged from the bridge and tackled him, the other clamp dug into the robots wing and tore it apart.
Baymax stared at him, and looked actually scared... He shook his head and held him as they fell or of the sky towards the water. "I'm sorry... This all my fault."
The robot was turned in the air and took the fall damage as they hit the water and Baymax thrashed around. "Why?!" The robot roared then stopped at Tadashi took off the helmet of him. "I'm sorry... Just let go..." The robot started to calm and gradually went still as they sank in the water. "That's it... Just let go, you'll be fine." Tadashi spluttered as water began to fill up in his mask.
Baymaxs eyes flickered before growing dim and shutting down.
Tadashi smiled softly and held into Baymax as he looked up in the water and let go of his mask. It drifted up with the last of the air in his lungs. And everything went black.
...
"Tadashi!" Hiro screamed and struggled against the grips of the team and Krei who had been with Callaghan. He stared at the water when nothing came up and broke down. He lost him, Tadashi was gone...
He was remembering everything that happened as they sat there in silence. Baymax patted Hiro's head. "It's alright to cry... It's alright now." The boy immediately threw himself on the robot and clung to him, sobbing.
As all the emotional bits were going on Alistair walked over to the shore as something washed up. A mask, white with red and black accents and a point nose.
Krei stared at it for a while the. Stuffed it in his coat before turning back to them.
He wouldn't tell them what he found... Not yet. He didn't need to get the boys hopes up again.
.HHAHAHAHAAAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAAAHEHEHHAAHAAAHAHA! I'm tired now... That was fun. See you all in the next story!
