Alright, here is chapter 4. I loved writing this one because it had a little bit of action in it. Also, there needs to be more Hirogo art. So if you have some artistic talent, draw these two lovebirds, please!
Now read:
"Whatcha watchin?"A voice came from behind me. I jumped a little then turned to see honey Lemon looking over my shoulder.
"Oh, just Hiro's tests of my bike," I started as I closed the files. "They are ok, I guess." I didn't want her to know I was a little jealous of how fast he got my bike to go.
"Really? Cause by the look on your face, I would say you are pretty impressed." She said with a face that said 'you're jealous aren't you?'
I glared at her.
"Hey, don't give me that. Tell the truth, you like it don't you?" she said with a smile.
I started to get a little nervous. "L-like what?" It was uncharacteristic of me to stutter. What on earth Gogo, what is up with you?
"All that Hiro has done for you, he made you that sweet super-suit, those really cool maglev discs, and now, he is helping you with your bike." She gave me a small smirk.
"Yeah, I guess it is nice of him," I said looking away for a second, "But, those were just friendly favors, nothing too big." What is wrong with me? I have seen Hiro as a little brother ever since Tadashi died. What is coming over me to think more of him now?
"Well Gogo, I think you might have a—"
"Don't say another word!" I cut her off.
She leaned in close and whispered, "crush." She then ran to her own station before I could grab her.
It can't be. I don't have a crush on Hiro.
Maybe you do.
Who are you?
Oh, I am just your subconscious. Usually I stay pretty quiet and only make short sarcastic comments to your conscious mind.
So you mock me.
That's not very fair. You need to focus girl. You like—
Don't say it!
Hiro.
I will kill you.
Oh you don't want to do that. Anyways, let's be honest. Hiro is pretty cool. I mean he did make your bike faster. And he is the only one in the group that you can stand to be around for more than 30 minutes.
That is true, but I wouldn't say that I like, like him. That kind of stuff is for Honey Lemon. She's the real girly-girl. I am just, well, me.
You can keep lying to yourself, but when you come to your senses, I will be here to say, "Told you so."
Whatever, I need to get to class.
I went through the rest of the day thinking about that emitter. It was an interesting concept, but to add 30 mph to a run of my bike; that was something else.
As my last class ended, I walked out the door to see Honey Lemon waiting for me. It was a usual occurrence for her and me to hang out after school. She waved to me and ran up to me with a huge smile.
"What's up?" I asked as I blew a bubble and popped it in my mouth.
"I am just super excited! And I don't know why!" she said while we walked out the front door. We were about to leave campus when Hiro came running up to us. He looked really scared.
"Umm," he started, "There's a problem, and I don't know if it's something Baymax and I can handle on our own."
"What's the problem, genius? Did you crash your bike into a bush?" I asked with a little smirk. It's always fun to tease him.
"Haha," Hiro retorted, "No, there was a robbery on 4th street. Apparently there are 4 perps, and Baymax and I can't handle all four of them."
"Looks like it's time to gear up!" Honey Lemon said with her usual cheeriness.
We ran home real quick and met up right on the roof of the Police Department. Fred and Wasabi were not with us. I found it weird, but I decided to let it drop because I really wasn't in the mood for their bickering.
"Where do we need to go again?" Honey Lemon
"It's right up 4th street; it sounds like they are headed straight towards us."
I saw the criminals running towards us. They were using the rooftops and were moving straight towards us. An idea popped into my head right then. "Honey Lemon, give me a bridge across the street."
She did so and I was off. I zoomed onto the rooftops in front of them and started moving. The first perp was looking back to see if his friends were still there and did not see me at all. I got one of the throwing discs and sent it right at his feet. He fell and I skidded to a halt right on top of him. Honey Lemon was there and trapped him in a chemical blob. I took off for the others. I saw the man in back get picked up by Baymax and Hiro. The other two took a sudden turn and started hopping around rooftops, bridges, and many other obstacles to throw me off. Thankfully, it takes more than just impressive running to shake me. I quickly spit out my gum and placed it on my helmet for good luck.
To get across the first gap, there were two planks of wood that made an adequate ramp to move to a bridge nearby. I followed the racks until I saw a small staircase that I could grind off of and vault myself to the set of rooftops that the runners had crossed. I knew that I needed to gain speed to catch them.
I used some boxes to get some downhill speed and I saw a large gap between rooftops coming up. Alright Gogo, you can make this jump. And when you do, you will be right on top of them. I saw a sign that had been taken off of its post a while back lying on top of a stack of boxes. You have one shot to do this. I threw my maglev disc and it destroyed the first two boxes to make me a nice ramp. I vaulted off of the ramp and saw that I had misjudged the distance. There would be no way to get to the other roof.
I started to fall. I started to get real scared, real fast. I was falling really fast and I couldn't recover. This is going to hurt, a lot! At that moment I felt a sudden stop in my fall and I looked up to see Hiro. His face scared me. He was breathing heavy, his eyes were huge and his mouth was wide open.
"Oh my god, Gogo, please don't do that again." I then realized what had happened. Baymax and Hiro were flying right above me and when they saw me take the jump they moved to catch me. "You scared the life out of me."
"I-I am sorry Hiro." I finally calmed down. Suddenly, I was pulled into a hug.
"Gogo, I can't lose you." I heard Hiro say through tears. What was he talking about?
"I'm sorry Hiro." I returned his hug and he let go. "What about the other perps?"
Baymax slowly brought us up to the rooftop where Honey Lemon had caught the other two runners in her chemical mixtures.
After bringing the criminals to the police station, we all went home. I walked into my apartment and put my helmet on the counter in the kitchen. I went over to the couch that I slept on and collapsed in exhaustion.
I am so sorry Hiro. I hope I didn't hurt you too much
Told you so.
