Chapter Eleven

The streets were unnaturally quiet as the trio head for the warehouse that same night. Tadashi and Masashi are leading the front with Hiro and Baymax behind. Maybe we should've deflated Baymax first…his legs are still kinda stubby Masashi thought, unaware of a car following them to their destination.

Baymax kicks the door to the warehouse down as Hiro shouts: "SICK 'EM!"

Tadashi and Masashi get into their 'defensive' positions only to find nothing 'greeting' them in the warehouse. "What the…?" A 'plink' could be heard as Hiro takes out his petri dish when the microbot becomes active. "This way." He says, following the tiny robots movements.

Hiro wasn't paying any attention to where he was walking for he almost walked right off the edge, if it weren't for Tadashi who grabs him just in time yanking him back. "Hiro!"

"You need to watch out-"

The petri dish's top flies off as the microbot disappears. A familiar masked man can be seen riding on a wave of obsidian.

"Oh…"

"Crud…"

"Hide!"

The quartet scurry behind a storage unit. Hiro peering out as Masashi takes out his phone. "What do you think you're doing?" Tadashi asks in a hissed whisper.

"Recording evidence." Masashi whispers back. If they had this footage of Ackerman, there was no way the police would think they were crazy. It was solid proof no one would deny. Ackerman would be arrested and all would be well. Ackerman soon comes closer, Masashi subconsciously holds Tadashi's hand in which the other grips it in return.

"Your heart rates have increased dramatically." Baymax stated only to be shushed.

"Okay. Get ready buddy…"

Just as Baymax prepared to get into a fighting stance, they cover their eyes as headlights shine upon them.

"What the heck?" Masashi whispered in panic, hearing his phone clatter on the ground when it was dropped.

The trio soon turn to find Wasabi and the others stepping out of the car. Clear looks of concern etch across their features. "…Guys?" Tadashi asked, blinking while Hiro glared at Baymax.

"You ratted us out?!"

"No. No, no no no and no: You guys can't be here!" Masashi snapped.

"Don't push us away, Masashi. We're just here to help."

Baymax stepped forward. "Those suffering a loss require contact with friends and loved ones."

"Which is why he contacted us." Gogo replied looking over the robot. "Why is he wearing carbon fiber undies?"

"I also know karate."

Masashi sighed, trying to control his twitching eye. "You guys. I really appreciate the good gesture, but, I'm fine alright? Seriously. Tadashi and Hiro have been keeping me in check."

"Who would like to go first?" Baymax asked.

Hiro face palms. "Really? Are you serious?!"

"I will!" Fred raised an eyebrow. "My name is Fred and it has been thirty days since-" His eyes then widen as he shouts, pointing behind Hiro. "Holy mother of Megazon!"

Ackerman is floating just centimeters above them. Eyes completely focused on Masashi behind his mask. "…Run!" The group scatters as they started to take off, Wasabi being the last to when the storage unit hits them.

"AHHHH! OH MY GOSH! NO!" He shrieked covering his head. "OH WHAT A WORLD-Eh?"

Baymax was holding the piece of equipment up as Masashi held out his hand. "C'mon! Let's get the hell out of here and fast!" But, before he can even make a move Ackerman snatches him up with the microbots who are in the shape of a fist around the struggling Masashi. "Damn it are you serious?! Again?" He can hear Wasabi scream in panic before Ackerman hits him in the back of the neck.

The last thing he sees before his vision grows dark is Wasabi yelling he'll get the others.

Gogo and Honey grabbed the boys shoving them in. "Hey! Quit it!"

"Stop! Gogo are you serious?!" Tadashi snapped.

"Saving your lives!" She growled as she got in.

"Baymax can handle that guy." Hiro said, kicking the back of her seat.

As he said those words however, Baymax was sent flying through the air landing just inches where the car was landing in a heap. "Oh no." He and Tadashi simultaneously dead pan. They follow the Hamada brothers gaze as they look up to see Ackerman floating higher than before above the warehouse. Tadashi squints closer, thinking he sees what looks like Masashi being held under his arm…feeling dread coil around his body.

"Masashi…Oh crap he has Masashi."

Tadashi tried getting out but Wasabi and Honey pull him back. "Tadashi are you crazy?! If you go in you'll be taken also!"

"Masashi can't handle him alone! He needs me."

"Masashi's tougher than you think." Wasabi stated. "We have to leave. Now! We'll work on a rescue plan after getting out of here."

"Wasabi…" Gogo murmured urgently.

"Let's go!" Wasabi started the car and started backing up.

"Tadashi, Hiro. Explain. NOW." Gogo hissed.

"He started the fire. He tried to kill me and Masashi!" Tadashi exclaimed.

"It's Ackerman! Alex Ackerman, the guy you thought was oh so great and wonderful?" Hiro paused mid-sentence when he sees a wave of microbots chasing after them. "BAYMAX! PALM-HEEL STRIKE!"

Baymax manage to block the hit from the microbots as the car gets shoved backwards. "Whoa!"

"Why is Ackerman trying to kill us?!"

"We don't know if it's him for sure or that he's-"

A car went flying.

"HE'S TRYING TO KILL US!"

They held on to anything they could hold onto as Wasabi sped up further. "Did you just put your blinker on!?"

"I HAVE TO! IT'S THE LAW!" He shot back.

"Too much. We've seen way too much!" Hiro grips his hair.

"You've only seen the half of it after the fire!" Tadashi gives him a light shoulder shove. Hiro shoved him back in return. Harder.

"Don't make me turn this car around! I will turn this car AROUND!"

"No you will NOT!" Gogo snarled. "We have a mad man trying to kill us and your pulling THAT card!?"

Hiro shook his head as he leans over Wasabi's seat. "Baymax can handle him! We didn't ask for your help!"

"For once I'm in an agreement." Tadashi replied. He's not even doing anything and yet he can feel his heart pounding against his rib cage. He and the others were stunned as Wasabi actually stops at a red light.

"You… Did… Not… Just… DO THAT." Gogo roared.

"You have to stop! It's the LAW!"

Gogo decides to take over, calling Wasabi a 'pretty boy' and drives right through the red light. Tadashi and Hiro hold on for dear life as she speeds forward with no caution what so ever. Gogo Tomago at the wheel…everything looks very uncertain as of now. "I'm too young to die." Hiro gulps. Tadashi merely nods out of response.

They were passing the monorail station now.

The car lurches over a hill.

"GOGO SLOW DOWN!"

"NOT IF WE WANNA LIVE!"

They just barely dodge a moving train and Hiro almost falling out of the door only to be saved by Tadashi and Fred. "We're gonna die." The brothers chorused.

"Uh… What was that part that just went flying by?" Fred asked.

"The breaks!"

Just as Honey Lemon shouted, the car dives head first into the bay. Everyone tries holding their breath under the water, Tadashi looking over at Hiro to make sure he was still with them. It's not long before they hold onto Baymax who fortunately can breathe, emerging as they gasp from lack of air.

"I… I told you we'd make it." Honey grinned tiredly. Trying to catch her breath.

"That… Was intense." Hiro sighed. Tadashi on the other side of Baymax nodded slowly.

Baymax looked at the group scanning them each before speaking. "Your injuries require my attention and your body temperatures are low."

Hiro merely nodded, but noticed Tadashi swimming back towards the shore. "Hey! What're you doing?"

"Don't tell me I'm the only one who knows how to swim! C'mon. Let's get going." He shot back, clenching his fist tight after pulling himself out of the water. Now things had become more personal between him and Ackerman. He stole perhaps the one person who he held dear to the most…and he will get him back.
