6 Incredible Heroes
Lucky Cat Café
It was a bright and sunny Sunday morning in San Fransokyo, outside the entrance to the Fairmountain Hotel stood the Parr family, ready to start the day. Bob wore a white short sleeve button-down shirt with grey pants and a belt. Helen wore a red T-shirt with tan colored khakis, and she held Jack-Jack, who wore his super suit. Violet wore a purple top with light brown shorts and Dash wore a red and white T-shirt with blue jeans. Helen had Jack-Jack's baby bag, which contained his things, including the tracker in case he used any of his powers, and Bob had a small bag that had a few of the essentials in it.
Bob smiled as he turned to his family and said, "Alright everybody ready?"
Dash and Violet happily exclaimed, "Yeah!"
Bob then replied, "Alright, the first we're going to do is take a bus tour."
Dash groaned in annoyance and Violet showed a similar expression, they didn't like the idea of going on a long bus tour and listening to someone talk about everything they passed. Later they were waiting for their bus with a bunch of other people.
As they waited Violet said, "Dad, this isn't what I had in mind when you said we'd be having some family fun."
Dash was irritated as he complained, "Yeah! We don't wanna go on a long ride where we have to listen to some guy telling us about everything. That's like going to school!"
Bob looked at them and moved his hand as he said, "Look, this is the best way for us to get around and see the sights for our first time. It'll only be a few hours, we'll be back at the room for lunch and then we'll do whatever you kids want. Okay?"
Violet and Dash glanced at each other before they turned back to Bob and they both said, "Okay."
Helen looked and saw their bus coming and spoke up, "Here it comes."
A double decker tour bus pulled up in front of them and everyone got on board; the Parrs sat together on the top deck of the bus. Before long the bus drove off and the tour guide started talking about San Fransokyo while Violet and Dash both stared off into space with bored expressions. First the guide talked about how the city was first established when the original city of San Francisco was devastated in 1906 by a massive earthquake and Japanese immigrants helped rebuild it. Violet became interested as he continued and discussed how the city was renamed San Fransokyo and mixed American and Japanese architecture.
Later the bus passed Krei Tech and the tour guide talked about the company and Alistair Krei, who was one of the most powerful people in San Fransokyo. Dash became interested when the guide talked about an even where a mysterious villain attacked the company and was foiled by a young team of superheroes. He did not give the names of the young heroes but talked about how much they had done for the city in the past month. After he finished talking about these heroes Violet, Dash, Jack-Jack, Bob, and Helen all smiled at each other.
Later as the bus was driving everyone looked up at the sky while the tour guide talked about the floating turbines above the city. Dash was very interested, as much as Violet; usually he did not like science much but the floating turbines seemed very cool to him. They had no technology like that in Metroville and San Fransokyo was one of the most technologically advanced cities in the world. The guide talked about how the turbines worked and how they helped supply power to the city. Violet understood the science better than Dash did but it still sounded complicated to her.
Later they came to the park and near the entrance stood a statue of Boss Awesome; after superheroes were declared legal again the government reinstated their statues and monuments. The tour guide talked about Boss Awesome and how he was considered one of the greatest superheroes of all time. Dash and Violet were very interested as they stared at the statue with big smiles on their faces; seeing how famous superheroes could be game them self-confidence. Bob and Helen smiled as they saw how happy the kids were and then they smiled at each other, thinking about how great they would be one day. After a couple of hours they finished the tour and the Parrs returned to their hotel room and ate lunch, just as Bob said
After lunch they went back down to the lobby, where Bob asked, "Alright kids, the rest of the day is up to you. So what do you want to do?"
Violet thought and put her finger to her chin as she said, "Hmmm."
Before she could say anything Dash spoke up and said, "I know!"
Later they were at an arcade where Dash was happily playing a videogame while Violet watched with a bored expression and Bob and Helen played a claw machine and won Jack-Jack a stuffed animal. Afterwards Helen suggested that they go to the San Fransokyo Museum of Art, to which Violet agreed, and they looked at various paintings and sculptures. Violet was interested, though Dash was bored as he looked around, and Helen showed Jack-Jack a colorful painting, prompting him to make happy baby sounds. After they left the museum they drove up to a high hill where Violet and Dash used coin operated binoculars look at the bay.
Dash turned the binoculars to look at several things while he said, "Wow! This is awesome!"
Violet looked at a few things too as she happily said, "Yeah, this is great!"
Helen looked through binoculars before she held Jack-Jack in front of them and let him look; he made a few happy baby sounds as he saw different things. Afterwards they took a tour of Krei Tech, which Violet and Dash thought was cool as they saw many advanced robotics labs. They spent the entire afternoon sightseeing as they explored different areas of the city. When they were finally done it was dusk outside as they drove their station wagon through the streets.
As they drove Bob glanced at everyone and said, "Now see? Isn't this a nice trip?"
Violet smiled as she nodded and said, "Yeah dad. This was a great idea."
Dash smiled happily as he said, "Yeah! I like this vacation!"
Helen smiled at them as she said, "Well we're glad you're having a good time."
Suddenly Jack-Jack started crying in his seat and Helen stretched her neck to where her head was right in front of him and she said, "What's wrong sweetie? Don't cry, mommy's here."
Jack-Jack looked at her but kept crying, prompting Helen to pull her neck back to normal and looked at Bob as she said, "I think he's hungry."
Dash rubbed his stomach with a hungry expression as he said, "Yeah, I'm hungry too."
Violet showed a similar expression as she agreed, "Me too."
Bob looked through the windshield as he said, "Well it is dinnertime. Let's see if we can find somewhere we can get something to eat."
Almost immediately he spotted something up ahead while he said, "Hey this looks like a good place."
He parked in front of a restaurant called the "Lucky Cat Café" and they all got out of the car, entered the café, and looked around. The café was packed with people but they soon spotted a table where they could all sit. They walked to it and Bob, Violet, and Dash sat down while Helen found a high chair for Jack-Jack.
She sat down with the others and they all started looking at menus, but before they could read any of them Cass came to them and said, "Hello, welcome to the Lucky Cat Café. How may I help you?"
Bob spoke up and politely said, "Uh… we just got here. We haven't decided what we want yet."
Cass then apologized and said, "Oh sorry. Busy day."
Cass suddenly noticed Jack-Jack and adoringly said, "Aww! He's so cute!"
She affectionately rubbed his head, prompting him make bubbly little baby sounds.
Cass turned to the rest of the Parrs and observantly said, "So I'm guessing you all are from out of town."
Helen nodded and replied, "Yes, we're here for the week because the kids have off of school."
It was the middle of spring and tourist season was just beginning, so many of Cass's customers were people on vacation. It made things busier for the café but she could handle it, and it also meant more money, which helped pay for Hiro's college.
Cass started walking while she said, "Well enjoy your visit. Let me know when you're ready to order."
Over an hour later it was dark outside as the Parrs were happily finishing their meals. Dash was finishing his sandwich while Bob drank his smoothie through a straw, Violet finished her rice, and Helen wiped Jack-Jack's face.
Cass came to them and happily asked, "So did you folks enjoy your meal?"
The kids smiled and nodded while Helen said, "Yes, thank you."
Bob smiled as he said, "Yeah the food was great."
Cass smiled as she glanced at all of them and politely said, "Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. So, can I get you dessert?"
Helen politely declined as she said, "That's very nice of you but we shouldn't."
Dash looked at her and said, "What?! I want dessert!"
Jack-Jack made happy baby sounds that indicated that liked the idea of having dessert too.
Helen narrowed her eyes as she firmly said, "No Dash, we've eaten enough and it's getting late. Too much sugar and you'll be up all night."
Dash turned to his father and whined, "Dad!"
Bob didn't argue as he said, "Listen to your mother."
Cass looked Bob and Helen as she politely said, "Are you sure? You're on vacation, you should enjoy it, and I make great blueberry scones."
Bob waved his left hand and rubbed his stomach while he politely said, "No she's right, we shouldn't. Besides I'm watching my weight. Thanks anyway."
Cass had her attention on Bob as they kept talking for a few minutes, meanwhile Helen, Violet, and Dash turned to Jack-Jack, who made baby sounds before he suddenly teleported away. The three of them stared at the chair in shock and fear, then they quickly turned in different directions to see if he teleported to somewhere close by. Luckily all the other people in the café were so focused on their food and each other that none of them apparently noticed the baby had teleported away.
Helen then tapped Bob on the shoulder and said, "Bob!"
He looked at her as she pointed at the chair, prompting him to gasp in fear and Cass, noticing the empty high chair, showed concern as she said, "Uh, where'd your baby go?"
Cass looked under the table and glanced around worriedly as she said, "Uh oh this isn't good! We have to find him before something happens!"
Helen tried to calm down as she said, "It's alright mam. He's a baby, you can't take your eyes off him for a second."
Cass started to panic while Dash snuck over to the baby bag, made sure no one was watching him, and quickly pulled out the tracker and stared at the screen. He held it up as Violet stood next to him and looked at it as the screen showed Jack-Jack's location.
Dash spoke softly as he said, "He's upstairs."
They put the tracker back in the bag and Violet whispered into Helen's ear, "Jack-Jack's upstairs."
Helen then interrupted Cass's panicking as she said, "Calm down, he couldn't have gotten far. Let's spread out and search for him."
Cass pointed her finger and smiled as she said, "Good idea!"
She turned around and started looking while Helen looked at Violet and Dash and softly said, "We'll stall her. You two find Jack-Jack before he gets into trouble or blows our secret."
Helen and Bob followed Cass while Violet and Dash quickly made their way to the doorway next to the counter. They entered the hallway and ran upstairs to the second floor.
They stopped and Violet looked around and called out, "Jack-Jack?"
Dash zoomed to the counter, the stove, the chairs, and the window across the room while he said, "Jack-Jack? Jack-Jack? Jack-Jack? Jack-Jack? Jack-Jack?"
Violet pointed at the second flight of stairs and said, "I think he's on the third floor."
They hurried up to the third floor and looked around to find that it was a bedroom, but Jack-Jack was nowhere to be found.
Violet glanced around as she said, "Jack-Jack?"
Suddenly they heard baby sounds echoing throughout the room and they realized that he was in the other dimension, but in this room.
Dash ran forward and started looking around while he said, "Jack-Jack? Where are you?"
They heard more baby sounds as Violet moved forward and looked around while she said, "Come out Jack-Jack. We have to go."
They kept hearing his baby sounds as they looked around and Dash said, "Come on Jack-Jack! If you come out we'll give you a cookie."
They looked around as they heard the sound of Jack-Jack yawning and making tired sounds, then it stopped.
There was silence and they looked around with concern as Violet said, "Jack-Jack? Jack-Jack! Can you still hear us?!"
There was no response and Dash zoomed to different areas of the room as he desperately searched and said, "Where is he?! Where is he?!"
Violet became very worried as she looked around and said, "We've gotta find him fast!"
She started looking around and she and Dash looked between the bed and nightstand, then they jumped as they suddenly heard a voice say, "Who are you?"
They turned around to see Hiro Hamada, who had just gotten home after hanging out with his friends, standing in front of the staircase with his backpack on. He stared at them suspiciously, wondering why two strangers were in his bedroom.
Violet smiled nervously as she said, "Oh, hi I'm Violet, and this is my brother Dash."
Dash smiled nervously as he waved his hand, Hiro still showed suspicion as he said, "And uh… what are you doing in my room."
Violet tried to be polite as she explained, "Sorry, we're looking for our brother. He's just a baby and he wondered off, so we're trying to find him."
Hiro still showed mild suspicion while he took off his backpack and tossed it aside as he inquired, "And you think he's up here."
Dash turned away and walked away while Violet said, "We heard his voice so we're pretty sure he's somewhere in here."
While she and Hiro continued talking Dash walked over to the desk and noticed a piece of paper that had plans for a machine.
Dash curiously picked it up and asked, "What's this?"
Hiro walked to him with a touchy expression and he grabbed it while he said, "That's not for you!"
He took it back and accidently gave Dash a papercut on his left index finger, prompting Dash to say, "Ow! Hey!"
Hiro apologized as he said, "Oh sorry! You okay?"
While Dash began talking, Baymax suddenly activated and rose out of his traveling case. The others turned to him and Violet and Dash showed befuddled expressions as they stared at the large inflatable robot. He stared at them and blinked before stepping off his charge station and walking toward them. Hiro stepped aside as Baymax approached Dash, prompting Violet to cautiously take a step back, unsure what was going on.
Baymax focused on Dash as he waved his right hand in a circular motion and said, "Hello. I am Baymax your personal healthcare companion. I was alerted to the need for medical attention when you said 'ow'."
Violet and Dash stared at Baymax and turned their eyes to Hiro, still confused, prompting Hiro to explain, "Yeah he's pretty much a robot nurse."
Violet was surprised as she pointed at Baymax and said, "That's a robot?"
Dash curiously poked Baymax's vinyl material with his left finger and said, "He looks like a giant marshmallow."
Violet agreed as she added, "Or a talking snowman."
Baymax remained focused on Dash as he displayed different emoji on his chest and said, "On a scale of 1 to 10 how would you rate your pain?"
Dash, still perplexed by the robot nurse, shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know."
Baymax then said, "I will scan you now."
With his hyperspectral cameras, Baymax turned down as he scanned Dash and said, "Scan complete. You have a small papercut on your finger."
He grabbed Dash's hand and pointed his right finger up as he said, "I suggest an antibacterial spray."
He pointed his finger at Dash's papercut and said, "You may feel a slight stinging sensation."
He sprayed Dash's papercut, causing Dash to wince as it stung, then Baymax rapped a bandage around his finger.
Dash felt slightly awkward as he said, "Uh… thanks."
Baymax pulled out a red lollipop and replied, "You are welcome. Would you like a lollipop?"
Dash smiled as he reached for it but Violet stopped him and said, "Thanks but we've still gotta find…"
She was interrupted as they suddenly heard a baby crying and they looked around curiously.
Hiro was confused as he said, "What is that?"
Baymax raised his right finger as he stated, "That is the sound of a baby crying."
Violet looked at Hiro as she said, "That's Jack-Jack! I told you he was up here."
They heard more crying followed by other baby noises as Hiro looked at Baymax and said, "Baymax, see if you can find him."
Baymax turned around and walked to the middle of the room and rotated his head around while he said, "Scanning."
After a minute he said, "Scan complete. I am not able to detect the baby, but my audio receptors indicate it is in this room."
They heard more of Jack-Jack's baby sounds while Hiro, befuddled, looked around and said, "Yeah I hear him but I can't see him. I can't even tell where it's coming from."
Violet and Dash looked at each other, worried that Jack-Jack might reveal their secret. Suddenly Jack-Jack emerged from the other dimension on the floor in front of the bookcase; luckily, Hiro and Baymax were facing the opposite direction and did not see him.
He sat on the floor and made happy baby sounds while looking up at the ceiling and Dash pointed at him and yelled, "There!"
Hiro and Baymax turned around to see Jack-Jack sitting across the room and Baymax said, "I have located the baby."
Hiro was shocked and confused as he said, "Where did he come from?!"
Jack-Jack looked at them and made a sound of surprise as he looked at Baymax. Jack-Jack smiled and made happy baby sounds as he got up and walked toward Baymax; he stopped in front of him and reached his arms up toward him as he gripped his hands. Baymax bent over, grabbed Jack-Jack, and stood straight as he held Jack-Jack in his hands. Jack-Jack then hugged Baymax and closed his eyes as he smiled happily. Violet and Dash showed warm smiles as they watched Jack-Jack hug the robot nurse, it was a cute sight.
They all turned to the stairs as they heard Helen and Bob coming up while Helen said, "Kids, have you found…"
She stopped and she and Bob both stared at the white balloon man holding Jack-Jack.
Baymax walked to them and handed Jack-Jack to Helen while Jack-Jack smiled at him and made happy baby sounds.
Baymax looked at Helen and said, "Your baby is very healthy mam."
Helen showed an awkward expression as she said, "Thank you."
Hiro started being pushy but tried to sound polite as he said, "Well now that you found your baby I guess you can go now."
Violet and Dash walked past Baymax and started down the stairs while she said, "Right sorry. Thanks for your help Baymax."
Dash stopped and smiled awkwardly as he said, "Yeah, thanks."
Baymax waved his hand in a circular motion as he said, "You are welcome."
Dash paused and Baymax said, "I cannot deactivate until you say you are satisfied with your care."
Dash complied as he said, "Uh… okay. I'm satisfied with my care."
Baymax then turned and walked to his charging station and Hiro showed a mildly annoyed expression as he watched the family walk back down the stairs.
The Parrs walked back down to the café and Cass came up to them and was relieved as she said, "Oh good! You found your baby! Thank god!"
Helen smiled as she said, "Yes he's fine, but we should get going."
They walked past her and she turned to see Hiro enter the café, she went to him and said, "Hiro, that family's baby wandered off into our house!"
Hiro calmly replied, "I know Aunt Cass. He was upstairs. Me and Baymax helped them find him."
Cass smiled as she hugged him and held his shoulders as she said, "You are such a good kid."
Hiro pulled back and smiled as he said, "Thanks Aunt Cass."
Suddenly everyone in the café turned to the TV as it showed a news report where an anchorman said, "This just in: witnesses report a giant robot rampaging through downtown San Fransokyo, destroying everything in its path. Can our heroes destroy this threat or are we all doomed?"
The Parrs all narrowed their eyes as they stared at the screen, and Hiro showed a similar expression as he also stared at the TV.
The Parrs started running and Bob quickly slammed some money on the table as they ran to the door while he said, "This should cover it, thanks for the food!"
They hurried outside, got in their car, and quickly drove off, leaving Cass befuddled by their strange behavior.
She turned to Hiro as he smiled innocently and pointed his finger as he said, "Uh… I'm going upstairs to study."
He turned around and moved toward the stairs and she said, "Okay."
He hurried upstairs, meanwhile the Parrs were driving in their car and they had already put their masks on were also now in their super suits.
Hiro was in his bedroom, Baymax activated behind him while he talked on his phone with a serious expression and said, "Go Go, it's me. Tell the others to suit up and meet us downtown."
The Incredibles were driving as their normal looking station wagon transformed into the Incredibile and blasted off. Hiro and Baymax flew away from the house and into the sky as they headed downtown, ready to meet the others there and protect the city.
Author's note: And that is how the Parrs met Hiro and Baymax, they'll meet the others later. Sorry the beginning of the chapter seemed a little rushed. I meant for the part where they were traveling the city to be like another montage. It may be a while before I post the next chapter, I want to update at least one of my other stories first. But I plan to do a lot more funny and adorable moments with Baymax and Jack-Jack. I have big plans for this story.
Please review.
