Before he could react to the fourth person in the hallway, Tadashi was pulling Hiro up a set of stairs. Separate, obviously, from where the Fujita were going. And as much as he hated to admit it-He hoped silently that none of them died in there.

But they could definitely take care of themselves. He knew that for a fact. And instead focused on getting out of there in one piece with his older brother.

Tadashi paused a moment, though. As they seemed to have lost their friends in the meanwhile of dodging the debris. Looking left and right, the Hamada boys tried to guess or remember which way it would be that they'd need to go through.

But with the passing time, it was only a matter of waiting before the entire place came crashing down on the two boys.

Sucking in a sharp breath, Tadashi pulled off his helmet. Shoving it on his younger sibling's head to allow him the fresh air instead. Hiro's eyes widened at it though. Tadashi smiled, "Don't worry. We're getting out of this." he assured his baby brother. Who couldn't help but let out a small chuckle at his big brother's actions, but shook his head, "Tadashi-"

Hiro never finished his words. As he suddenly shoved his older brother as hard as he could from where he was standing.

A relived smile crossed his face as he saw that Tadashi was moved at least ten feet from where they were before. Looking at him with confused eyes-That quickly turned terrified once he noted what his baby brother just saved him from.

Something scorching hot came upon his person. Shutting out all of the lights of the flames before Hiro felt exhaustion come over him. But yet-The heat stopped fairly quickly, to his surprise. A small smile came across his face, he knew he would forgive his older brother. One final thought came to his mind before he closed his eyes.

You're still the greatest hero in San Fransokyo, Tadashi.

He didn't even realize it when he'd lost track of their friends. They'd gone one way and he'd gone another-But those two always did have a better sense of direction than him. So he determined it that they accidentally went down two differing pathways. Now he and Hiro needed to find their own way out of there.

But as they continued on, seeing what was only becoming a series of dead ends-He was absolutely horrified at the thought of both of them dying in there.

And the smoke-There was only more of it seemingly. Blocking out a good portion of his view, but not entirely blinding him.

Of course, his brother hadn't been prepared in the slightest for a fire. And he could easily die of smoke inhalation if they didn't get out soon-

Tadashi had given Hiro his helmet. Just in case only one of them could make it out of there-He wanted it to be his baby brother. He knew that Hiro was still mad at him for the betrayal, and he'd need to give his aunt the biggest explanation of his life later. Given she'd survive-'Stop thinking that way, Tadashi! She's going to be absolutely fine! She's with Baymax right now-More than likely on her way to the hospital!'

Hiro looked like he was ready to pull off the helmet again and return it to his big brother, shaking his head a bit, "Tadashi-"

But the next motion was so quick-He didn't even realize it until he'd been shoved at least ten feet away from where he was before. Hiro was very strong despite his size, it seemed.

Looking up at his brother, he felt confused and slightly hurt at the action.

But confusion turned to panic-

As within a second-Time seemed to slow. Hiro waved at his brother with a slightly relived grin on his face. Tadashi looked with horror-But he knew that he wouldn't be able to save Hiro as the younger just did for him.

Then the rubble landed on top of his little brother.

"Hiro!" the older of the two ran over to the rubble, attempting to move the pieces that were atop his baby brother, "Please-Please say something! Anything! Or if you can't-Just-Please don't-"

Starting to move the rubble from their place. Tadashi felt arms tugging at his own, attempting to get him to move. But he tried to fight against him.

Finally fed up with all his fighting against them, one of them wrapped their arms around Tadashi's underarms. Successfully pulling him back from his spot as they landed on the ground.

Gasping, Tadashi took in that he was in fact looking at the Fujita. Or-At least Kaede and Natsuki. He guessed that it must be Hotaru that was holding him back at the moment.

Kaede looked at him sadly, Natsuki's eyes were kept at a neutral place as something that shimmered in the light of the flames was placed into her pocket.

Rolling her eyes, the green Fujita attempted to speak some sense into Tadashi, "Listen, Sunfire." she had addressed him using his superhero name. Yet purposeful or not that had somehow hurt inside-Seeing as the fact that he wasn't even able to get to his baby brother on time, "Your brother's got no chance at all in there. He'd want you to come out of here alive though."

Kaede nodded, looking ready to cry. Having the softest spot for the little guy than any of the three Fujita in there. But she didn't speak at all.

"I'm not leaving without him." he growled angrily in return. Trying and failing to get out of the grip that Hotaru still had him in at the time.

They looked at one another, giving a small nod among themselves, they quickly nodded at one another. They made a promise to Abigail, and they were women of their words.

Soon, they knocked out the older Hamada.

Kaede blew a kiss in the direction of the rubble, mouthing her goodbye to the little Hamada she'd grown so quickly fond of. Soon helping the other two get Tadashi up off the floor. They promised that he'd get out of there alive-And that's exactly what they intended to make certain of.
