I do not own Big Hero 6.
Enjoy!
Envoy.
That word that Aunt Cass hadn't really thought of in a week was now echoing in her mind as she stared at what could only be called her dead nephew, Tadashi.
Hiro was saying that there was another version of her nephew up there was suddenly taken very seriously.
"O-Oh, the envoy," She said, "Please come in" she turned around, and he followed her to some stairs at the back of the shop, and she took glances secretly at him.
Tadashi found himself in a place a lot more appropriate to be called a house.
"So...do you sleep or.." Aunt Cass said.
"I need exactly what you need, so I do sleep," Tadashi said.
He felt like an animal.
"Just wanting to make sure," She said, turning to him and saying. "Well; I can show you to the room where you will be staying. Sorry, there aren't many bedrooms in the house so you will have to share with my nephew, Hiro."
"Hiro?" Tadashi said something about that name seemed very familiar to him.
Aunt Cass was disappointed to see not ounce of recognition in his eyes at that name.
Did Hiro or her not exist in the world he came from?
He followed her up the steps only to turn and stop; there was still pictures with Tadashi still on the wall.
He had seen one and was staring.
Now he knew why she was staring at him.
"...This, person." Tadashi said, pointing at an image of himself. "Does he still live here?"
"Sadly no" Aunt Cass said, "He died over a year ago. He was my oldest Nephew."
"...I'm sorry for your lost," Tadashi said. "It must be pretty weird seeing me, then" before he said. "Should I leave?" turning around.
"NO!" She instantly said, making him stop in his tracks. "You came all the way down here. I can't send you home. Please stay"
And Tadashi said nothing but then followed her back up the steps and to the room he would be staying at.
He saw a crisp, neat bed next to a bed that had all the tidiness of a hurricane.
"Sorry, for the mess," Aunt Cass said, embarrassed, "I told my nephew to tidy up, but it seems he didn't."
"It's okay," Tadashi said, with a fond smile. "It kind of reminds me of something."
An old memory.
And Aunt Cass was stunned, it was as if she was talking to her own Tadashi.
"W-We'll, here is the bed you'll be sleeping in," She said, "Feel free to use the wardrobe. I wish I know which day you were coming on, so I had time to clear things out it."
"It was sudden for me too," Tadashi said, "But I hope I learn a lot from my time here."
And Aunt Cass preferred if he didn't go at that moment, a huge turnaround from her thinking of calling the police earlier that week.
"We'll; I'll be going back downstairs. Feel free to call if you need anything" She said.
Please, call, was silent in the air.
Then she left.
Tadashi began to look around, this room was very similar to his own room, he sat on the bed, and it just felt right for some reason.
He wondered what that boy Hiro was like, he had never been roommates with somebody before.
He closed his eyes for a bit, and he must have been out for some time because he woke up to a very long hard stare.
He turned and saw a child who screamed familiarity to him.
It was the boy, Hiro.
And Hiro wasn't imagining it; he was really was on the bed that had been empty for over a year.
"Your name is Hiro, right?" Tadashi said, startling the boy as he got up to properly introduce himself. "My name is Tadashi Hamada, and I'm the Envoy. Nice to meet you."
The boy opened and closed his mouth.
Tadashi gave him a minute.
"You're my roommate?" The boy said.
"It seems so," Tadashi said.
More silence.
"...You don't know me, do you?" Hiro said.
"Sorry, I'm an only child," Tadashi said, shocking Hiro. "And I don't have an Aunt name 'Cass'. Maybe, she died when I was a child or something?"
That was a quite a huge difference.
But before Hiro could open his mouth, shocked at finding out he was never born, they both heard.
"DINER!" From Aunt Cass.
Tadashi almost found himself reacting to her voice.
Hiro gave him an awkward glance.
"I eat food." Tadashi said, "Your Aunt has already asked me if I eat or not."
Hiro was surprised and said. "Do you know the way to the kitchen?"
"I saw it on the way up here," Tadashi said.
Both of them walked out of the room and made their way to the kitchen, Hiro sat down, and Tadashi did the same.
Aunt Cass almost dropped the bowl she was holding, when she saw him sitting at the dining table.
"Is your Aunt, alright?" Tadashi said, to Hiro.
"She's just...happy to have you here," Hiro said, taking the fact he was sitting next to what he thought was a Parallel version of his brother better than his Aunt.
Aunt Cass smiled weirdly as she put the food on the table, pretty soon it was piled high, and a bowl was put in front of him.
"itadakimasu" Tadashi said, on instinct.
The moment he said that he knew he had made a mistake because immediately he felt like an animal at the zoo, with both Hiro and Aunt Cass sudden stares.
There were several beats of uncomfortable silence after that.
"Japanese?" Aunt Cass finally asked.
"Grew up in a household that is heavily Japanese, actually," Tadashi said.
Hiro was Japanese too, but not like that.
Finally, the uncomfortable silence seemed to have washed away when Hiro took a bowl and decided to copy him but ended up butchering the word instead.
Tadashi laughed and said. "It's Itadakimasu, knucklehead."
Both Aunt Cass and Hiro eyes popped out of their head's when they heard Tadashi favourite nickname for him.
Tadashi seemed to realise what he said and instantly apologised. "Sorry, about the name"
"No, you can call me that," Hiro said, "I like being called 'Knucklehead'"
And Aunt Cass rose an eyebrow since when did he like that nickname?
Apparently, today was a miracle day.
"Really? So, it's not an insult here?" Tadashi said.
"...We'll. It is" Hiro said, before he went around calling people that. "But as long as you don't mean it as an insult, I'm fine with it."
Extremely fine with it.
Tadashi seemed to be thinking of something, as he began to eat while Hiro and Aunt Cass kept taking glances at him.
They finished the bowl and somewhere along the way; it became an eating competition.
It was quite shocking how it just happened like that. However, Tadashi clearly had a bigger appetite and won it.
"I don't think I can move," Hiro said, flopping down.
"You don't tangle with somebody who eats large portions of thing's on a daily basis," Tadashi said.
"I'll go clean up," Aunt Cass said.
"You sure?" Tadashi said. "I can try cleaning up."
"No, you're a guest," Aunt Cass said, "I'm sure, Hiro can show you lots of things."
"Give me a minute" Hiro groaned much to Tadashi amusement.
Hiro took a breather before Tadashi found himself being led back upstairs to the bedroom.
"Say, the word that you say when you're in pain," Hiro said, much to Tadashi confusion.
"Ow?" Tadashi said.
Baymax came online, and Tadashi almost jumped when he heard. "My name is Baymax. A friendly Healthcare companion" from right behind him.
Tadashi turned around to see the marshmallow robot from his dream.
This was a bit creepy.
The robot came to him and said. "How will you rate your pain?" on its stomach were circled faces ranging from happy to tears.
"Tadashi, meet Baymax," Hiro said.
"A Healthcare nurse?" Tadashi said. "Did you make him?"
"No, the other... you did," Hiro said, getting a bit depressed.
"I can defiantly see myself making something like this" Tadashi suddenly said.
"Really?" Hiro said.
Tadashi pressed his face to Baymax stomach to look through to the metal casing.
"Yep, that definitely is my kind of work," Tadashi said, "How long did it take the other me to make this? A few days?"
"Actually...several months," Hiro said, having seen the video footage. "Tadashi was making him for me, and it was the last gift he ever gave me."
"...Oh" Tadashi said.
This boy was depressing.
"But I want to show you my invention," Hiro said, trying to be upbeat and then going to look for something.
Hiro found a box and pushed it in front of him, Tadashi looked and saw it was just a box of magnets.
Hiro took a small helmet with a transmitter, and suddenly the Microbots came alive and began to construct into Baymax's form.
"These are-" Hiro began proudly.
"Microbots" Tadashi finished, stealing Hiro thunder.
"Wait. You know about Microbots?" Hiro said.
"Back in my world, Microbots are used to construct buildings," Tadashi said, stunning him. "We didn't need a helmet. The programming was inserted right into them, and then when the bots solidify, they are no longer controlled by something and became the actual structure their structure was based on."
"...Wait, your world can do that?" Hiro said, and here he was having trouble on where to take the invention next and this person in front of him, had the answer.
"It seems it's to time to show you, a little bit of my stuff," Tadashi said before he said. "KAL. Shields down"
Hiro and Baymax wondered who he was talking to until the coolest thing Hiro had ever witness began appearing right next to Tadashi.
Hiro saw something build itself right in front of him and then it moved upwards to reveal it was, in fact, a suitcase.
A suitcase, more advanced than he had ever seen.
"Master Hamada. Are you ready to use me?" Said, the suitcase in a female voice, Baymax looked at the new bot in the room with blinking eyes.
"Baymax, Hiro. Meet KAL." Tadashi said. "The Computer I took with me when I came down."
"I am sensing another Bot in the room," The suitcase said, before turning around to Baymax and saying in a hyperactive voice. "Hi, my name is KAL."
"Hi, KAL. My name is Baymax" Baymax said.
"This is so exciting. Master Hamada barely takes me out" Said the suitcase, spinning her wheels.
Hiro's mouth dropped, he had never heard such a hyper and alive sounding suitcase before.
"KAL is a robot people from my world take with us when we travel, and the main connection is down" Tadashi explained, before saying. "KAL, can you please give me my nightclothes?"
"Of course, Master Hamada," She said before a loading screen popped up and then a zipper opened, and two robotic arms came out, holding his PJ'S.
"Thank you, KAL," Tadashi said, smiling and Hiro could swear the suitcase was blushing. "You are dismissed."
Then the Suitcase disappeared.
"She didn't even say goodbye," Baymax said, it looked like in a brief time they had, he became somewhat attached.
There was silence.
"Okay..." Hiro finally said, something. "You need to teach me, robotics!"
Tadashi looked amused.
"That was just...WOW." Hiro said, moving forward and felt nothing. "What did your world have that this world doesn't have? I have never seen a robot with that kind of emotional depth in speech, in my life!"
Hiro was now a firm believer that he was indeed from another world.
"You need to come with me to school, tomorrow," Hiro said.
"School?" Tadashi said, he thought this was going to be a vacation for him.
"Don't worry about it; it's a school for nerds?" Hiro said, "With you in the lab, you will be a huge help, and you can meet my friends."
"Well, if at your age your creating Nanobots and it's a massive deal then I need to see the school you go to," Tadashi said.
He finally realised why he was placed in this family.
Hiro will show him everything this city had to offer.
And scene!
Next chapter, Tadashi meet his former friends, and of course, they are shocked and startled to see somebody claiming to be Tadashi parallel double from the city above. Hiro and his friends finally see how he can live upside down. Review/fav and follow!
