Chapter 5

2 months ago, Akari began attending SFIT, and 2 months ago, Hiro began bot fighting all day long. He no longer used his old tactic, which was hustling the bot fighters. Instead he just walks up to the ring and fights whoever's there. He's known as the bot fighting champion in some areas, and in others, he hasn't played there yet to know whether or not he'll be called that.

His sisters were staying late at SFIT, and his parents were out at the movies, so he thought this was the perfect chance to go bot fighting in a new area. He pulled up the website on the computer in his and Akari's shared room, and headed to a bot fight in the rural part of the city.

When he arrived, he saw just how tough the competition was. All the men and women were at least 3 times his size, if not more. They had gigantic bots with giant weapons and his bot looked like a stick compared to theirs. He walked through the crowd to see the person he was going to fight, but he decided to try his hustling method first. He heard the announcer say, "And the winner… by total annihilation… Yama!"

"HAHA! Who is next? Who has the guts to step into the ring… with little Yama?"

There was utter silence. Hiro walked up to the front of the crowd. "C-Can I try?" he asked.

The crowd opened up and Hiro was now facing the undefeated bot fighter Yama. At least, undefeated until tonight. "I have a robot. I built it myself," Hiro said quietly.

"Beat it kid. House rules: you gotta pay to play," the announcer said sheepishly.

"Oh… is this enough?" Hiro pulled out some money from his pocket.

"Ha... What's your name little one?" Yama asked.

"Hiro… Hiro Tanaka," Hiro stated

"Well then… prepare you're your bot Zero," Yama said, making fun of his name, but Hiro didn't care.

He sat down on the mat across from Yama, and placed his bot in the ring. The bots fought and Hiro's bot was cut in three places. Hiro jumped toward his now broken bot while everyone laughed, "That was my first fight! I… Can I try again?"

"No one likes a sore loser little boy…go home," Yama said as he pulled his winnings from the pot.

"I've got more money," Hiro said and pulled out a wad of cash.

The bots stood in their fighting stances, and Hiro stretched out his controller, and said confidently, "Megabot destroy." Yama was confused and watched Hiro's bot's face change expressions. They fought until Hiro's bot took apart Yama's bot, Piece-by-piece.

"Wha? This is not possible!" Yama shouted.

"Hey, I'm surprised as you are. D-Do you wanna go again…"The announcer gave Hiro his money, and Yama's crew pushed Hiro into a wall, "Yama?"

"How dare you hustle me?" Yama exclaimed and grabbed Hiro's bot, "teach him a lesson boys."

Just as one of the men were about to punch Hiro, he ducked and crawled under his arm, running as fast as he could out of the alleyway, and pulled his phone out of his pocket, dialing the number he knew by heart. He just hoped that his sister wouldn't murder him for bot fighting...again.

"Leiko?"


Gogo was finishing up the 42nd test on her electromag-suspension bike, when she got a call from Hiro.

-Leiko?- he was panting.

"Hiro? Don't tell me…"

-Yep.-

"Where are you?"

-The corner of Nikko and CR 1226. Please hurry.-

"I'm on my way."

She hung up the phone and walked over to Tadashi and Akari, who were currently talking to Fred, "Tadashi, watch Akari for me."

"Why?" Tadashi asked.

"Hiro," she said simply, and Akari face palmed.

"That idiot's going to get himself arrested," she mumbled.

"Just watch her," Gogo said and ran out the door with her bike.

"Hey Akari, want to be my test subject?" Tadashi asked.

"For what?" she asked.

"My latest project," Tadashi answered.

"You mean the one you were cheering about in your lab this morning?" Akari teased.

"Yep," Tadashi replied.

"Sure," Akari said, and they walked to Tadashi's lab. Akari and Tadashi's bond grew over the 2 months she had been at SFIT. Ever since the first day when Tadashi told Akari what had made him so upset, she just, understood him. they never told anyone what made him so upset that day, because it was a heart-wrenching story, especially for Tadashi.

They walked into his lab, and closed the door behind them. Tadashi pulled out a roll of duct tape and placed it on her arm. Then he ripped it off, but he looked at her in confusion.

"Didn't that hurt?" he asked.

"No. It just felt like something tingly," she replied, equally confused.

"Hmm." Tadashi responded.

"Can I do it to you?" she asked.

"Sure," he said and handed her the roll of duct tape. She ripped a piece of and placed it on his arm, ripping it off.

"Ow!" he cried, and his latest project was activated.

"This is what I've been working on," Tadashi said, gesturing to the white inflatable figure. The figure walked up to Akari and Tadashi and started to talk, "Hello. I am Baymax, your personal healthcare companion. I was alerted to the need for medical attention when you said 'ow.'"

"A robotic…nurse?" Akari asked in curiosity.

"On a scale from 1 to 10, how would rate your pain?"

"0," Akari answered.

"A 2 I guess," Tadashi replied.

"I will scan you now. Scan complete. Both of you have a slight epidermal abrasion on your forearm. I suggest an anti-bacterial spray," Baymax informed them as he walks up to them, getting to ready spray their arms.

"You must have done some serious coding on this thing, huh?" Akari asked.

"Yep. I programmed him with over 10,000 medical procedures," Tadashi said revealing a chip in Baymax's access port. "This chip is what makes Baymax, Baymax."

"Vinyl?" Akari asked walking up to Baymax.

"Yeah. Kinda goin for a huggable design," Tadashi informed him.

"He looks like a walking marshmallow. No offense," she laughed.

"I am a robot. I cannot be offended," Baymax said.

"Hyperspectral cameras?" Akari asked, looking at Baymax's eyes.

"Yep," Tadashi stated.

Akari looked at the inside of Baymax's body, "Titanium skeleton?"

"It's carbon fiber," Tadashi corrected.

"Oh right. Even lighter," Akari corrected herself, "Wow Tadashi. This is amazing!"

"Thanks," Tadashi said.

A whirring sound erupted form Baymax for about a minute, and then it stopped.

"What was that?" Akari asked.

"I don't know," Tadashi said, and furrowed his eyebrows in confusion.

"Scanning for biological similarities…" Baymax said and started whirring again.

"What? We're not siblings Baymax," Akari stated.

"That information is false," Baymax said and lit up his stomach, which displayed two figures, "You two are indeed siblings."

"What?"Akari asked in disbelief and looked at Tadashi, who had the same facial expression she did, T-That can't be true."

"It is true Akari," Baymax stated.

"B-But w-why…why would my p-parents l-lie t-to Hiro and I like that?" Akari stammered, tears welling up in her eyes.

"I don't know," Tadashi whispered.

"In case I am incorrect, you may want to take a genetic test done by a professional," Baymax stated. (A/N: I have no idea what they're called.)

"Let's do it," Akari said.

"What?" Tadashi asked.

"I want to know…I want to know if this is true or not," she explained.

"Ok. I can probably find something online," Tadashi said and walked over to his computer, typing things in as quickly as he could.

"Tadashi…" Akari trailed off, but it still caught the attention of him.

"What is it?" Tadashi asked, noticing her struggle to find the words to say.

"We… can't tell anyone about this. Not yet. We need to wait until the test results come back," Akari said quietly.

"I understand," Tadashi said.

"I can get something of Hiro's, like a strand of hair or something," Akari offered.

"Alright," Tadashi told her.

"And Tadashi?" Akari asked, he turned to look at her, and she continued, "If the test comes back positive, I want to say I'm sorry."

"For what?" Tadashi asked, "You didn't do anything wrong."

"That's not true! If the test is positive, Hiro and I put you through 14 years of despair and depression, and that had to have been so hard!" Akari cried, tears welling up once again.

"Hey," Tadashi said as he walked over to her and wrapped her in a hug, "if it's positive, it's not your fault. Not yours or Hiro's. The only person, who should apologize, is the person who took you from the hospital."

"Really?" Akari asked.

"Yes, you have nothing to be guilty about," Tadashi said, giving her a soft smile, and she returned it.

"Thanks Tadashi," Akari said.

"You're welcome," Tadashi replied.

"Akari!" a voice outside the door called. Akari wiped her eyes and her nose before stepping out into the hall with Tadashi.

"There you are," she heard her sister say.

"Hi Leiko, sorry if I worried you," Akari apologized.

"It's fine. We're going home now," Gogo said.

"Ok. Bye Tadashi. See you tomorrow," Akari waved and walked down the hall.

"Bye Akari," Tadashi called and walked back into his lab after Akari and Gogo left the hallway.

He looked at the results Baymax had shown them, "Are you positive that Akari is my sister?"

"I am 96% positive. I would still recommend a genetic test though," Baymax stated.

Tadashi beamed at the thought of having found his younger brother and sister.

"Are you satisfied with your care?" Baymax asked.

"Yes Baymax, I'm satisfied with my care," Tadashi said and walked back to the computer while Baymax deactivated, and stared at the screen with a hopeful look on his face.


Sorry if it seems a bit rushed, but I really wanted to get to the point. The next chapter will come later today.
