Hiro Hamada's POV
Bot-Fight, you know that's illegal, isn't it? But, it was my hobby. With Bot-Fighting, I can get so much money easily, without wiping the sweats because of working, or anything else. Just quietly sit down, controlling the robot and destroy the opponent's robot. It's easy, right? But behind of its easiness, there are some serious consequences too, it's like arrested by police and beaten by thugs. But well… I don't care about its illegality or its consequences, the important thing is I can win, get praise from the people and earn a lot of money.
Tonight, there's a Bot-fight in an alley, I should to go there and win it, I heard there was a great Bot-Fighter named Yama. But will he win if he deals with me? I'm sure that his robot will be destroyed by my little robot.
I asked (Y/N) to take me to there by bike, yeah… I was forced, I couldn't asked my brother to take me, because he'll kill me if he knows that I was involved in a Bot-Fight.
"Are not you scared, Hiro?" (Y/N) broke the silence that had been coloring our journey to the Bot-Fight place.
"Nope" I replied simply and still focused to pedal the bike.
"Tadashi has taught us some Karate moves, right? So… just calm down, (Y/N)… we'll be fine" I continued.
"Yeah, you were right…" she replied
"Ahh… can't wait to be a witness of Yama's defeat" she continued. I smirked as I heard those words.
"Can't wait you said? Okay, hold me tight, I'll be speeding". Then, I started to pedal the bike faster as I felt (Y/N)'s hands wrapped my waist tightly.
Without take a long time, we arrived in the Bot-Fight place. Ouh, Yama was doing a fight with a girl. I analyzed their robot, Yama can win easily because he has a buzz saw on his robot as a weapon. I watched him managed to destroy the girl's robot, the girl frozen in disbelief as she saw her robot torn apart. Poor girl, she should've made a weapon that more stronger and unusual than just tweezers.
"Hiro, are you sure wanted to fight that robot? Your robot could have destroyed by that saw. Your robot has no weapon, Hiro" (Y/N) whispered in hesitation, I just smiled and shook my head.
"You doubt a genius? Oh, come on (Y/N), Of course I'm sure to fight him. I'll make you amazed when you watch me beat him" I replied.
"Maybe I don't have any weapon, but Mega-bot can destroy a robot that has weapons" I continued. (Y/N) just rolled her eyes and crossed her hands.
"The winner! With total annihilation… Yama!" I heard the ringleader spoke up and gave the money bets to Yama.
"Who is next? Who has the guts to step into the ring? With Little Yama?" Yama challenged everyone in that place.
"It's time for you genius" (Y/N) whispered.
"You don't need to remind me girl" I whispered in return. I saw no one dared to fight him, so I took a few steps to accept his challenge.
"Can I try?" I spoke up. Then, some people gave me a way to show up.
"I have a robot, I built it myself" I showed my Mega-bot which still putting on its silly yellow face. Everyone on that place laughed out loud, but am I shy? No. Huh, they're fooled by the look of my Mega-bot
"Beat it kid, house rules you gotta pay to play" the ringleader said.
"Ouh, is this enough?" I took out a bit of my money.
"What's your name, little boy?" Yama asked.
"Hiro… Hiro Hamada".
"Prepare your bot, zero" he said.
Zero? Huh, it sounds crappy.
Then, we both put our robot on the ring and put our money bets to a plate, I saw Yama did some preparation, when Yama sat behind the ring, I did so, even I followed Yama's act when he cracks his neck joints.
"Two bots enter, one bot leaves" the ringleader spin her umbrella between out robot.
"Fighters ready?!" she continued.
"Fight!" then she lifted the umbrella to start the fight. Then, we began to control our robot. Yama tossed my robot up and cut it become three pieces with its buzz saw easily. he laughed and felt that he won the fight. Again, I succeed to fool him.
"This is my first fight… can I try again?" I asked.
"No one likes a sore loser, little boy... Go home" Yama said while taking the money bets.
"I've got more money" I challenged him again with the rest of money I have, and it managed to make him interested and put more money to the plate.
"Fighters ready? Fight!" The ringleader started the fight again.
"Mega-bot… destroy" I better to show Mega-bot's actual ability, I turned Mega-bot's face from smile face into the angry face. And began to fight Little Yama. The Little Yama began to attack my robot, but I controlled my robot casually, with feeling no fear. My robot avoided Little Yama's attack quickly and with ease. Then, I controlled my robot to creep to Little Yama's body, it pulled off Little Yama's left hand and destroyed Little Yama's right hand, it hit Little Yama's head for some times, and then it pulled off Little Yama's head. Now, the Little Yama was destroyed. I smirked as I heard the audience murmured in disbelief.
"No more Little Yama" I smirked again while taking the money bets.
"But... what…? this is not possible!" Yama looked in disbelief.
"Hey, I'm as surprised as you are. Beginner's luck.." I put my money into my pocket
"Do you want to go again, Yama?" I asked him, but I'm surprised as I saw Yama suddenly stood in front of me.
"No one hustles Yama!" Yama pushed me against the wall and took my robot.
"Teach him a lesson" Yama told his subordinates to beat me. Yama's subordinates cracked their knuckles and ready to throw me some blows.
"STOP!" I heard (Y/N) yelled. She ran to approach me and faced those bad guys.
"Do you wanna beat him just because of he won? That's no fair you know!" she continued. Yama just rolled his eyes and crossed his hands.
"What are you guys waiting for? Beat them!" Yama said. I saw one of Yama's subordinate was going to throw a fist to (Y/N).
"(Y/N), get down!" I warned her. When she was ducking, I held the fist and spun Yama's subordinate's hand and sent him an elbow blow.
"Hiro! Look out!" (Y/N) warned me. As I stepped aside, she deflected a hand that going to hit me.
"Step aside, (Y/N)" I whispered to (Y/N), she obeyed. As they were going to hit me, I swung my leg to their face until bruised.
"Now you, girl" I whispered to (Y/N) and stepped aside.
"Sure" she replied. Without gave them a chance to attack, she beat them one by one with a side kick until they lost their balance. After it, immediately I pulled her hand to escape from them.
"Get on (Y/N)!" I shouted while parking her (F/C) bike. Without thinking long, she run to approach me and got onto the luggage rack of her bike.
"Hold on!" I started to pedal in full speed, I felt her hands wrapped my waist tightly.
"Hiro! Your remote was going to fall!" she said.
"Take it and control Mega-bot back to me! I'll slow the speed" I replied and followed my own words to slow the speed of this bike, I saw she nodded. Then, I back to focus myself to ride the bike.
"I made it, Hiro!" she said.
"Good, now give it to me" I reached out my hand, she handed me Mega-bot simultaneously with its remote. I put them on the basket and began to pedals faster.
"Hiro! Two of Yama's subordinates are chasing us!" (Y/N) said.
"Ignore it!" I replied. Suddenly, I saw a red moped appeared, and stopped in front of us. Yes, it was my brother, I slowed the speed and finally stopped as I saw him.
"Perfect timing, bro.." I said to him. But suddenly his eyes widened as he saw 2 people behind us.
"Go! I'll handle those thugs!" he began to ride his moped.
"Okay, come on (Y/N)!" I said and began to pedal again in full speed. I don't know what will he do to those thugs, but I saw he came back while riding his moped.
"Are you guys okay?" he asked.
"Yes" (Y/N) and I replied.
"Are you hurt?" he asked again.
"No" .
"Then, what were you thinking, knucklehead?!" Tadashi smacked my right arm and it made me almost fall.
"Hey! Don't you see that I was riding this bicycle?!" I shouted. I saw he just rolled his eyes and shook his head.
"You graduated high school when you were 13 and this is what you're doing?" he said.
"There they are!" my eyes widened as I saw Yama and his subordinates tried to hinder us.
"Oh no" (Y/N) murmured.
"Hey!" yelled Yama, again. I looked around, I saw an incline wood and jumped through it.
"Yes!" (Y/N) and I yelled in excited.
"Get back here!" Yama screamed, but we ignored it.
"That's so great, Hiro!" (Y/N) praised. I smiled. Then, I saw Tadashi rode his moped beside me again.
"Bot-Fighting is illegal! You're gonna get yourself arrested!" he said. I rolled my eyes.
"Bot-fighting is not illegal, betting on Bot-fighting that's… that's illegal, but so lucrative!" I showed my money to him.
"I'm in a roll, big brother! And there is no stopping me!" I screamed and felt so happy. But, suddenly we stopped by police.
"You got to be kidding me" (Y/N) murmured.
"Oh no" Tadashi did so.
The police immediately wrapped our wrists with their handcuff and brought us to the police station. It turns out they didn't indiscriminately on people who break the law as us. All of us jailed, even Tadashi who didn't involve on the Bot-Fight at all.
"Sorry guys" I said. I saw (Y/N) and Tadashi deadpanned. Shortly, the police let us to get out of the prison. They said that our parents were waiting outside. As we walk through the door, we saw Aunt Cass was debating with (Y/N)'s mother.
"Teach well your nephew, Cass!" (Y/N)'s mother said.
"And for you, Hiro… I'll not allow you to see (Y/N) anymore!" she said while pointing to my face, and it succeed to make my heart as cut.
"Come on, (Y/N)!" suddenly she pulled (Y/N)'s hand to walk away. Then, I saw Aunt Cass put on her angry expression.
"Then what were you two knuckleheads thinking!" Suddenly she tweaked me and Tadashi's ear and brought us got into the car.
"For 10 years, I have done the best I could to raise you" said Aunt Cass while driving the car. She looked disappointed. Without take a long time, we got home.
"Have I been perfect? No! Do I know anything about children? No! Should I have picked up a book on parenting? Probably?! Where was I going with this? I had no point" said Aunt Cass she scolded us.
"Sorry, Aunt Cass" we bowed our head.
"Get inside!" she opened the door. Tadashi and I walked through the door and went upstairs. As I arrived on my bedroom, I bowed my head in sadness, did I can't see (Y/N) anymore in forever?
"Thinking of (Y/N)?" Tadashi said.
"You'd better to utilize your genius brain to get college, bonehead. With it, you can make (Y/N)'s mother would to allow you to see her again" he advised.
"Yeah".
"Let's go to SFIT, I'll introduce the campus to you". I smiled as he invited me to go to his campus. Since it, I realized something that Bot-Fighting is useless and just make us become a bad guy. From now on, I decided not to participate the Bot-Fight anymore.
