New Objective: protect the Hamada Family at all cost.

That was actually a lot harder than I thought. Starting off, WHAT DO I DO ABOUT IT?

Do I let things happen and just make sure to be present at the Showcase and should the fire start, tackle Tadashi before he even thought about entering a flaming building? That was cutting a bit close.

Kill Professor Callaghan?

Well, not kill. Seriously maim? Or… oh, I don't know knock him out with chloroform? I mean the materials to make chloroform are ridiculously easy to get. Just a quick trip to the hardware store.

Then again, what are the chances I could overpower someone who liked Professor Callaghan, who was not only taller than me but also pretty physically fit?

Maybe going back to 'Tackling Tadashi' plan might be my best idea.

"Haruka can you run this out to garage?" Cass said, handing over a tray full of food. "I'm pretty sure the kids are hungry and you know how they get when they're absorbed in a project."

"They forget to eat and sleep like normal humans?" Haruka joked as she took the tray from her boss.

Cass laughed. "Exactly. That's why it's up to us normal people to keep the geniuses fed and well rested."

"Aye, aye ma'am!"

Exiting out of the side door, Haruka walked into the open garage. The sound of laughter and chattered poured out. "I brought food!" Haruka announced, holding up the tray of food. A bright smile graced her face as she recognized the group of friends out there.

It fell quiet before Fred walked up to her and fell to his knees. "You are a wonderful, wonderful goddess," he said.

"Get off the ground, Fred," Gogo said.

"Thanks Haruka!" Hiro said, taking the tray from Haruka.

"No problem. Your aunt did all the cooking. I'm just the delivery girl," Haruka said. She peered at the two blue trash bins that now stood in the garage. "Looks like your project is coming along nicely. Wanna give me a quick demonstration?"

"It'll be a good test run," Honey Lemon said.

Hiro nodded and grabbed his neurotransmitter, placing the silver band on his head. "Hi. My name is Hiro Hamada. This is a microbot." He pulled out one of his black microbots from the bin. "It doesn't look like much, but when it links up with the rest of its pals... "

Haruka took a step back as the bins started vibrating and swelling. It would be impressive to see this in person, in 'real life'.

The black microbots swarmed together forming a small two foot by two foot by two foot rectangle.

"Things get a little more interesting," Hiro continued. "The microbots are controlled by this neurotransmitter." Hiro pulled the band off his head and they fell apart to pieces. Placing the neurotransmitter back on his head, the microbots reformed into the rectangle.

"I think what I want them to do, they do it." A tiny miniature replica of Lucky Cat Cafe formed.

Hiro stopped. "I haven't thought much after that," he said, pulling off the neurotransmitter off his head. Looking at Haruka he smiled. "What do you think?"

Haruka grinned back. "That was awesome. Amazing! You're sure to impress the judges at the Showcase."

"Told you," Tadashi said proudly, playfully nudging his brother.

"Hiro's going to have no problem getting in," Wasabi said.

"What kind of security did you put in it?" Haruka asked.

"Security?" Hiro echoed.

"Security. I mean this some pretty revolutionary tech. What if someone came in stole some of your microbots. The garage isn't the most secure place," Haruka asked. She picked up the silver band and turned it over in her hands. This tiny piece of technology was going to change the world, in both good and bad ways. "I mean does the neurotransmitter have a biometric lock keyed only to you Hiro? Do your microbots have GPS trackers in them?"

"That's some pretty high paranoia, Haruka," Hiro said skeptically.

"Sounds like a good idea," Gogo said. "Never hurts to be prepared."

"Mochi, South Mall, and a certain hysterical preteen," Haruka calmly pointed out. About a month and half after Haruka had arrived, Hiro had come to her that he had lost Mochi in the mall. They had come to the mall for some grocery shopping and Hiro had insisted on bringing Mochi with them. They spent over three hours tracking down the missing pet before security called them to tell them they had found Mochi curled up in a basket of yarn in the arts and craft store.

If Mochi now walked around with a GPS tracker in his collar, well...

Hiro flushed. "You promised to never bring that up again!"

"What is this about Mochi?" Tadashi asked, curious.

"This sounds like a good story!" Fred said.

"There is no story!" Hiro protested.

Tadashi poked Hiro. "Tell me."

"It's nothing!" Hiro swatted Tadashi's hand away. He turned back to Haruka. "I'll put a biometric lock on the neurotransmitter. I can call back any missing microbot and anyone would be hard pressed to replicate the microbot without the neurotransmitter."

Haruka smiled. "I gotta get back. Keep up the good work guys!"

xXxXx

So maybe I can't take out Professor Callaghan. I could make it much harder for him to use Hiro's tech though.

Take that!

You guys are amazing. (´∀｀) Thank you so much.

I try to always response to guest reviewers when there's stuff to response to (and assuming there aren't that many guests) but you welcome! 8D But yup lots of plans. Haruka's gonna spend a lot of time contemplating what to do. I'm really glad you're excited for this story. (((o(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)o)))
