Chapter 18

Akari was bored out of her mind. Callaghan had locked her in this room for a whole day, and she didn't have anything to do but think. All she thought about was her brothers and friends, who were dead, and it was all Callaghan's fault. So there's a reason why Akari shows hostility towards him.

But today, something different happened. Akari was looking out her window, when a group of colorfully dressed people landed on the edge of the island. She was ecstatic, these people could help her get off the island, and back to her house. She could be free, but when she banged on the window, they didn't hear anything. The glass must be sound-proof… crap.

She only hoped that they found her, and that she could see her Aunt again.


Hiro and the rest of the team landed on the island, and looked for an entrance, which they ended up cutting through a wall after failing to attack a pigeon. They had gotten inside, and tried to find the masked man, but had no luck. Instead, they found a room, with a burnt circular ring, and a piece of a brand new looking one. Honey Lemon found a control room, and they watched the video on it.

One of the 9 screens showed a picture of Krei and a general. Krei looked frantic, and the general was angry. "Krei," Hiro mumbled and played the tape from the beginning.

"That's right. We were asked to do the impossible. That's what we did," Krei informed a group of people walking with him.

"We've reinvented the very concept of transportation. Friends, I present Project Silent Sparrow," Krei continued. The two rings in the center of the room lit up with a purplish-blue color.

"General, May I?" Krei asked, gesturing to the hat in his hand. The general gave him the hat and he threw it into the portal. The hat came out of the other portal, and it was thrown back in, where it was then given back to the general.

Everyone gasped. "Whoa. Magic hat," Fred gasped.

"Teleportation, the transport of matter instantaneously through space. Not science-fiction anymore," Krei said, and led the group of people to another room.

"Now we didn't spend billions of tax dollars to teleport hats. Ladies and gentlemen, you're here to witness history. Ready to go for a ride Abigail?"

A woman showed up on another screen walking into the pod that was going to be shot into the portal. "We've invited all these people, might as well give them a show."

"T-minus 30 seconds to launch," an automated voice said, "29, 28, 27…"

"Capsule is in position," a woman said.

"Sir, we've picked up a slight irregularity in the magnetic containment field," a man in the control room said.

"Hm," Krei replied.

"Is there a problem Mr. Krei?" the general asked.

"No, not at all. It's well within the parameters?" Krei asked the man at the desk who nodded slightly.

"Let's move forward," Krei commanded.

"3, 2, 1… Pod engaged," the automated voice said.

The pod went through the portal, and a few seconds after, an alarm sounded.

"Field breach! Abort!" a man shouted, "we've lost all contact with the pod."

The second portal burst into flames and was instantly destroyed.

Honey Lemon gasped, "Oh no."

"It's breaking up! The pilot is gone!" another man shouted.

"Portal 2 is down," a man said, "The magnetic containment field's down!"

"Krei shut it down, now!" the general shouted. Krei shut down the portal.

"I want this island sealed off!..." the general shouted.

"The government shut down Krei's experiment," Hiro stated.

"And he's using your microbots to steal his machine back," Honey Lemon finished.

"Krei's the guy in the mask," Tadashi stated, "He kidnapped Akari." But why?

"Oh no," Baymax said. Everyone turned around to see a piece of concrete being thrown at them. Everyone gasped when the concrete hit them. Baymax stood in the way of the concrete, so nobody was hurt. Honey Lemon was coughing because of the dust in the air, and everyone was on the ground, but other than that, everyone was ok.

"Baymax. Get us out of here," Hiro commanded, and he used his rocket fist to break the concrete that was on top of them.

Yokai turned around. When he saw that they were ok, he got mad.

"Go for the transmitter. Behind the mask," Hiro shouted.

Yokai flung some of the microbots at Hiro, but Baymax got in his way and flung him back instead. "Baymax!" Hiro shouted and ran over to Baymax.

"Alright. What's the plan?" Wasabi asked.

"It's Fred time," Fred said heroically. He jumped out in front of Yokai. "Super-jump! Gravity crush!" Fred shouted. Yokai threw microbots his way, "Falling hard!"

"Seriously what's the plan?" Wasabi asked again.

"Get the mask," Gogo said as she sped off.

"Right behind you!" Honey Lemon ran after her.

"Me too!" Tadashi shouted, following Honey Lemon and Gogo.

"For real, what is the plan?" Wasabi asked for the third time, but got no response.

Gogo sped around the room, which distracted Yokai. She managed to hit him in the head one with her disk, but when she tried to do it again, she missed and hit Honey Lemon instead, and caused her to release a ball in her hand that mad the ground slippery, and Gogo slipped. Honey Lemon and Gogo were both down.

Wasabi walked next to Yokai. "Hey! Uh, you wanna dance masked man? 'Cause you'll be dancing with these," Wasabi shouted and activated his laser gloves, "Hand over the mask, or you'll get a taste of this!" Wasabi shouted and swung his arm around, "And a little bit of that!"

Yokai instantly sent bursts of microbots at him, but Wasabi kept slicing them. When Yokai stopped, Wasabi thought he'd won. "Haha! Is that all you got?" he asked triumphantly. Then he looked down at his feet, which were covered by microbots. "Oh, you got that too." Wasabi was flung across the room, and collided with Fred, who shouted "Back into the fire!" before he was hit by Wasabi. Tadashi tried to help all he could, but soon ended up like the rest of the gang.

Yokai crated a fist above them, and was about to squish them, but then Baymax flew behind him, getting his attention.

He threw waves of microbots at him, but Baymax dodged all but one. Hiro flew off of Baymax, and fell on top of Yokai, and they both fell down the stairs. The microbots fell, because they weren't in anyone's control. Yokai didn't face them when his mask came off, because he didn't want to reveal himself, but he knew he had to.

Hiro grabbed the mask and stood up, "It's over Krei."

Yokai stood up and faced them all, and they were all shocked to see who it was. They all gasped in shock. "Pro…Professor Callaghan? The explosion…you died."

"No. I had your microbots," he said matter-of-factly.

"Akari. Where is she?" Hiro asked sternly.

"She's dead," Callaghan said with no emotion.

"You're lying!" Tadashi shouted from the balcony.

"No I'm not. If you want proof, why don't you look at the bottom of the port where your car is?" Callaghan asked rhetorically. Everyone gasped, why would he do such a horrible thing to an innocent girl?

"B-But why would you do that?" Hiro stammered, eyes glistening with unshed tears.

"She was getting in my way," Callaghan stated.

"She was just curious," Hiro tried to defend.

"That was her mistake!" Callaghan shouted.

"No it wasn't, it was yours," Hiro said with an angry tone, and glared at Callaghan. Baymax landed behind him, and he made his choice, "Baymax, destroy."

"Hiro, you can't do that!" Tadashi shouted.

"Yes I can," Hiro replied, not removing his gaze from the man he despised the most in the world. He killed Akari. His twin sister, his best friend for his whole life, and her life ended like that, because of Callaghan.

"My programming prevents me from injuring a human being," Baymax stated.

"Not anymore," Hiro said as he removed Baymax's healthcare chip and threw it across the room. "Hiro, this is not what…" Baymax trailed off, because the only chip in his system was his fighting chip. His eyes turned red. "Do it Baymax! Destroy him!" Hiro shouted, pointing to Callaghan.

"Hiro!" Tadashi shouted.

Baymax shot his rocket fists at Callaghan, but he missed each time because everyone prevented him from killing Callaghan. They were all flung across the room, into walls, and just out of the way. Baymax only took the order of Hiro, which was to destroy Callaghan. Tadashi and Fred were both thrown aside, but Fred hit Hiro and the mask fell out of his hand. Honey Lemon found Baymax's chip and struggled to put it in. when she did, Callaghan was gone, and Hiro was furious. Baymax helped everyone up, but the stepped back in fear. "My healthcare protocol has been violated. I regret any distress I may have caused."

"How could you do that?! He was right there!" Hiro shouted.

"What you just did, we never signed up for," Wasabi tried to put a hand on Hiro's shoulder, but Hiro moved away from him.

"We said we'd catch the guy. That's it," Gogo stated, which only made Hiro angrier.

"I never should have let you help me!" Hiro shouted, "It's all his fault that Akari is gone, and now you're all taking his side."

"We're not taking his side," Tadashi told him, "We just don't think it's right to kill him, even if he did kill Akari."

"Whatever," he turned to Baymax, "Baymax, find Callaghan."

"My enhanced scanner has been damaged," Baymax stated.

"ARGH!" Hiro groaned. He climbed behind Baymax and climbed up his back, "Wings! Fly!"

"Hiro!" they all shouted as Hiro and Baymax flew away.

"He's gone," Honey Lemon said sadly.

"I don't blame him for acting like that, he just lost his younger sister, that he's known his whole life," Tadashi stated, "We need to get off the island."

"I'll call Heathcliff," Fred said, and walked away.


Hiro and Baymax arrived back at the garage. Hiro stomped in, grabbed Baymax's helmet off his head, and connected it to his computer to fix it. While Hiro was fixing his enhanced scanner, Baymax scanned Hiro.

"Your blood pressure is elevated. You appear to be distressed," Baymax stated.

Hiro disconnected the helmet from his computer, and put the helmet back on his head, "There. Is it working?"

"My sensor is now operational," Baymax replied.

"Good," Hiro said, and tapped Baymax's access port on Baymax's chest, but it wouldn't open. He tapped it again, "What?"

"Are you going to remove my healthcare chip?" Baymax asked.

"Yes," Hiro replied, tapping the port once again.

"But my purpose is to heal the sick and injured," Baymax stated.

"Baymax, open your access port," Hiro commanded.

"Will terminating Callaghan improve your emotional state?" Baymax asked.

"Yes! N-No…I don't know!" Hiro stammered, and continued to tap on Baymax's chest, "Open your access."

"Is this what Akari would've wanted?" Baymax asked.

"It doesn't matter," Hiro said angrily, but he suddenly felt conflicted.

"Akari would not want you-" before Baymax could finish, Hiro cried out in despair, "Akari's gone!"

Hiro sunk down, and he put his head on Baymax's stomach, "Akari's gone."

"Akari is here," Baymax said.

"No, she's not here," Hiro replied, trying all his best not to cry.

"Akari is here," Baymax repeated, and lit up his stomach, and a video began to play…

A whirring sound erupted form Baymax for about a minute, and then it stopped. Akari and Tadashi looked at Baymax with a confused look.

"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. She furrowed her eyebrows in confusion.

"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-eyes wide and mouth agape, 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.

"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.

Hiro looked at the screen. He saw his sister, looking off the camera at Tadashi, but he never thought that he would see Akari again. He really missed her, even if he just found out Akari had been dead for less than an hour.

The tears in his eyes began to fall.

"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.

Hiro saw that his brother and sister were hugging. It was very hard for him to deal with the fact that his twin sister was gone, but he honestly thought she had been perfect. He'd never admit it, but he was jealous of her. She had always been honest, and she had never felt guilty for anything. Seeing her like this made him want to break.

He missed his sister a lot. The final video began to play…

Akari's eyes were red and puffy, and she was wrapped up in a blanket she kept in her lab. Her hair was a mess, like she just came out of bed.

"I heard a sound of distress. What seems to be the trouble?" Baymax asked.

"Baymax, I'm so confused. I don't know what to do," Akari sniffled.

"What seems to be the trouble? My sensors are indicating that you are experiencing confusion and sadness," Baymax stated.

"Because I am. I don't know what to do. I just found out Tadashi is my brother, just like you said, but I don't know what to do now," Akari threw her hands into the air in frustration.

"You will be alright. There, there," Baymax hugged Akari.

"Thanks Baymax, I needed that. You know, Tadashi was right when he said that you were going to help a lot of people, because if some people need a hug, even for no reason, you can give it to them. I can't wait for my other brother Hiro to see you. I hope you give him lots of inspiration, because he loves robots…"Akari trailed off. She smiled the more she talked.

"Your neurotransmitter levels have risen dramatically. Are you satisfied with your care?" Baymax asked.

"Yes. Thank you Baymax, I am satisfied with my care," Akari said, and she smiled the sweet smile the Hiro always loved to see on her face.

Hiro smiled sadly at the picture of his sister on the screen. She was so young, just like him, and she didn't deserve this kind of treatment from Callaghan. But he realized that what he did, trying to kill Callaghan, was wrong. He shouldn't have tried to kill him, he was just upset…really upset. The screen turned off and Hiro looked Baymax in the eyes.

"Thank you Baymax…I'm so sorry," he said quietly, "I just really miss my sister."

"Hiro," he heard Gogo call. He turned and saw everyone walking in.

"Guys, uh… I'm…" Hiro couldn't finish because Gogo pulled him into a hug, and he nearly lost it. He got a good look at everyone's faces. They were all filled with grief and despair, but his and Tadashi's were the worst. He wasn't crying like Hiro, but he could tell he really wanted to do.

"We're going to catch Callaghan," Gogo whispered, "And we're going to make sure he gets what he deserves."

"You guys still want to help me?" Hiro asked, shocked.

"Of course we still want to help Hiro!" Tadashi told him honestly, "You were just upset, and we understand."

"Eh, but maybe don't leave your team stranded on a spooky island next time," Wasabi suggested sarcastically.

"Oh man… I…" Hiro started, and ran a hand through his hair.

"Nah, it's cool," Fred told him, "Heathcliff picked us up in the family chopper."

"Hiro, we found something you should see," Honey Lemon said, and pulled out a USB drive. Hiro grabbed it from her and put it in his computer. He played the feed.

"You almost got us all killed!" the general exclaimed.

"Krei! You did this! You knew it wasn't ready!" Callaghan shouted. Hiro paused the video.

"Callaghan? He was there?" Hiro asked.

"He was such a good man. What happened?" Honey Lemon asked.

"I don't know, but the answer's here somewhere," Hiro said, turning his attention back to the computer. He rewound the tape until he heard Honey Lemon say, "Wait, wait! Stop."

"There he is," she said, pointing to one of the videos.

"With the pilot," Hiro finished, "Hang on." He rewound the tape to a specific part of the video.

"We've invited all these people…" Abigail said, and then the tape was rewound and paused.

Hiro zoomed in on the name on the side of the pilot's helmet. "The pilot was Callaghan's daughter."

"So Callaghan blames Krei," Tadashi finished.

"This is a revenge story," Fred recapped.

"Well, what are we waiting for?" Hiro asked.

"Hold it Hiro. We don't know where to go," Tadashi stated.

"I do. Krei is opening Krei Tech today, which is the perfect opportunity to get revenge on him," Hiro replied.

"Ok… I guess we do know where we're going," Tadashi said.

"Let's go!" Hiro shouted.

They all flew off to Krei Tech, to save Krei, stop Callaghan, and stop Callaghan's plan, hoping they weren't too late when they got there.
