I do not own Big Hero 6.
Enjoy!
The newly appointed Dean after Professor Callaghan, Professor Granville was about to sit down when she glanced at the CTV screen on her desk.
She was stunned to see a person who looked very similar to Tadashi Hamada from the statue she had seen in front of a new building, the person was teaching a group of Genius.
She had to rub her eyes just to make sure that he was in fact teaching a group of geniuses.
He looked a lot like Tadashi who was dead but then again, Callaghan was supposed to be dead but now he was rotting in prison after trying to kill a millionaire and causing millions in property damage.
This person must have quiet the brains to accomplish such a thing, she couldn't remember seeing such a person at this year's enrolment event and checking the computer, there was nobody currently in the school that was signed in that looked like him.
She got up from her chair and made her way to Hiro lab, her key card allowed her access to any room in the institute.
The door opened just in time for her to hear him say that if he truly used his mind, the invention he would create would never see the light of day.
She thought he was boasting about his smarts.
"Professor Granvil!" Hiro said, surprised. "What brings you here? I'm still working on my homework project"
"I'm not here to talk to you about your homework project, Hiro." She said, much to his relief, before she said. "You seemed to have brought somebody interesting here, Mr Hamada. I saw what you did from the camera's. You really know your stuff" turning to Tadashi.
"Oh. I'm alright" Said, Tadashi, so she didn't see him walking on impossible surfaces than...
"Are you thinking of enrolling into the school?" She said, much to both of their surprise. "Here, you'll be given resources that not many colleges can give. There is always something to learn here"
She wanted to extend an invention to him.
But Tadashi said. "Sorry, but I'm already taken" much to both of them surprise. "Another school has already snatched me up, a few years back actually."
"Wait...you go to school?" Said, Hiro, surprised.
"i not only go to school but I'm an inventor as well" Said, Tadashi. "You should see my lab, Hiro. Its quiet amazing"
And from their interaction with each other, Professor Granville could tell that Hiro wasn't talking to his brother.
"Oh, your taken" She said, getting both of their attention. "We'll, I would love to see some of your work some time. If you wish for a new place to work, the college doors are always open"
It looks like she hadn't quiet given up.
"Thats a nice offer, Mrs..." Tadashi said.
"Granville" She said, "The dean of San Fransokyo technology institute"
His eyes went wide.
She was the dean!?
No wonder!
"We'll, then I hope Hiro gives you a good tour" She said, before leaving.
"So, you're an inventor?" Said, Hiro.
"I actually go here" Tadashi said, shocking him. "I go to the parallel version of here. But unlike here, there is no fun. It's just work, work, work. People don't really talk to each other, much."
"...Oh" Said, Hiro before saying. "It's almost lunch. Do you want to get an ice cream or something?"
Tadashi paused and asked.
"What's an ice cream?"
Hiro was stunned but soon realised he was serious.
"Wait. How do you not know what Ice Cream is?" Hiro said, "It's so basic to make."
"Than there you go, Hiro. My world doesn't do basic" Said, Tadashi. "And besides, what is ice-cream...some kind of waffle?"
"No. I'll show you" Said, Hiro, finally something this Tadashi didn't know about.
Tadashi followed Hiro out of the building and out of campus before turning left and going to what could only be a trolley cart.
Tadashi raised an eyebrow.
"Hiro." The man said behind the trolley cart. "What can I get for you?"
"Can you get me two double chocolate ice creams, please?" Said, Hiro.
And Tadashi blinked behind them as he saw the ice cream being finely carved before Hiro paid for both of them and gave one to him.
"Here" Hiro said, and Tadashi took it.
He and Hiro went to the bridge, to eat it.
Hiro demonstrated to Tadashi how to eat it and Tadashi eyebrow shot up.
"...You stick your full tongue inside to scoop?" Tadashi said, "Now thats looks weird"
"We'll... if you eat it normally, you'll get something called a 'Brain freeze." Hiro said, "It hurts your brain"
"Wait. What?" Tadashi said, "So this is some kind of weapon?"
"Ur, no." Hiro said, "You just eat it slowly. The coldness makes it taste good."
And Tadashi looked at it suspiciously before sticking his tongue out and licking.
"Hmm" He said, it was really nice, he could see how people could take too much too fast.
And then, there was a beep that was coming from his pocket.
Tadashi went to his right pocket while Hiro looked and saw him get out some kind of capsule.
"What is that? Some kind of new tech" Said, Hiro excited to see what it does.
"Nope" Said, Tadashi as he popped a pill into his mouth. "This just keeps the massive amount of Oxygen here, from rushing to my brain. I have to take it twice a day"
Silence.
"...Have you ever tried living without them?" Hiro suddenly said, quietly.
"Huh?" Tadashi said, what did he say?
"Nothing" Hiro quickly said, before saying. "I'm going back to my lab. Your welcome to watch"
"We'll, I don't exactly know the way back to the house" Said, Tadashi reminding Hiro.
"Oh, right" Hiro said, "We'll, just eat our ice cream and go back to the lab"
They finished their ice cream and went back to the lab, Tadashi only helped Hiro by handing him stuff, he kept his mouth shut about what he could need or if a blueprint needed to be redone.
No matter how much Hiro tried to get him to squeeze his fountain of knowledge out, Tadashi kept his mouth amusedly shut.
But the weird way they just connected was very strange to Tadashi, but he chalked it up to him and his counterpart being so similar to one another, that he would connect like this to Hiro if he actually had a little brother.
They finished at night and Hiro friends were still on edge when they saw that he was still there.
"Guys, you don't have to be afraid of him. He's completely cool" Said, Hiro.
His friends looked at him strangely.
Tell that to the 'I'm clearly not supposed to be here' feeling oozing off him.
"It's fine, Hiro. I'm bound to get some discrimination" Said, Tadashi. "You should hear the thoughts of my people. A lot of us think you all have an extra head or you shed your skin or something."
And His friends gave him looks when they heard how freakish the people up above thought they were.
But then again, they thought those who lived in an upside-down city in the sky were the freakish one's.
"That would be so awesome!" Fred said, and most of them rolled their eyes.
"Come on, Tadashi. Let's go home" Said, Hiro.
Tadashi followed him out of the building, some of the students were still around and got in a good stare.
"So, what did you think of my school?" Said, Hiro.
"It very cool" Tadashi said. "I can see why such a school would be good for you, Hiro. After all, to fit that big brain of yourself you need to go to big brain school or you would get bored"
And Hiro could almost see his Tadashi.
They walked off the bridge and took the tram.
Tadashi made sure to look around while Hiro tried not to outright stare at him, but ended up doing so anyway.
They got off the tram and Hiro said. "We still have a long way to go...how about we play a game where we give each other riddles"
"Riddles? I'm down for that" Tadashi said.
"If I were to make a complex device, using the metal from my Microbots. Turned each invention upside down and named it H. What would it be?" Said, Hiro.
And Tadashi mind went to work, before he suddenly smiled and said. "Nice to try knuckle head. I'm not going to give you the formula for your next project. You're a genius. Be a Genius."
And Hiro frowned at being found out.
"We'll, can you drive?" Hiro said, suddenly asking a strange question.
"I can drive but I don't think my license would do any good here" Said, Tadashi.
And then they got to the café.
They walked in, ignoring the closed sign.
Tadashi followed him up the stairs to the apartment.
"WE"RE HOME!" Hiro shouted.
Aunt Cass appeared and said. "There you two are. I was just about to send the police to look for you" she joked.
Than they came into the kitchen and was hit with the smell of her cooking.
"This smells great" Tadashi said.
"Thank you" Aunt Cass said, laying some spring rolls in the middle of the table. "Go wash up and then come downstairs to eat"
She was talking mostly to Hiro.
"...Yes, Aunt Cass" Hiro said, dully before saying. "Come on, Tadashi"
Tadashi followed him to the bathroom and washed his hands, they both came down like Kings and sat around the table.
"itadakimasu" Tadashi suddenly said.
They both stared.
"...So, you say that with every meal?" Said, Hiro.
"Honestly at this point, it's a reflex" Said, Tadashi, poking a hole with his fork into a spring roll.
Both Hiro and Aunt Cass were a lot more comfortable with it the second time around.
They finished eating and both Tadashi and Hiro began their journey for bed, Tadashi got out his suitcase and put on his pj's, however there was something different tonight.
Tadashi got out a thin tablet and sat on the bed and began to type.
"What are you doing?" Said, Hiro looking interested.
"Writing a report" Said, Tadashi. "It's not all fun and games down here, Hiro. Got to write this report and then send it off. My report can be the thing that decides if my people have a relationship with this world"
Silence.
"...But, don't you have a relationship, right now?" Hiro suddenly said.
And Tadashi cringed a bit.
"Hiro, I can consider you as a friend" Said, Tadashi. "However, I can't ignore the fact that I'm in my dead counterparts house. Your Aunt Cass looks at me, like she really wants to love me but is killing her to remain professional about it"
"But she technically your Aunt is well" said, Hiro.
"And your technically my little brother" Said, Tadashi, stunning him. "And I would absolutely love a little brother just like you."
More silence.
"So you want a brother and I want a brother..." Hiro said, "Can't we meet each other half way?"
His question stunned Tadashi.
Technically they were brother's already but the Leader designed his life so he would never be a big brother ever again to Hiro.
"The relationship will never work out, Hiro." Said, Tadashi stunning him. "After this week, there is a high chance that I'll never see you again. I don't belong here. Both physically and mentally. The best we can do is call each other. The Leader isn't even woken up yet for any negation to happen..." he tried off.
"Tadashi?" Hiro said.
"Computer, transfer brain waves into writing format and send it off" He suddenly said.
Suddenly the tablet physically scanned him, making Hiro stare and want one.
When it was done, gleaming from his mind it imputed in and sent off.
Tadashi put the tablet back into his suitcase and said.
"Goodnight Hiro"
"Oh...Good night, Tadashi" Hiro said.
Tonight, Hiro could not help but feel that there was a wall between them.
What did the Leader mean to Tadashi?
And scene!
Next chapter, Tadashi chooses to spend the day with Aunt Cass who is all too happy to have him with her at all times. She asks about what he thinks about Hiro. A Lot. Review/fav and follow!
