Note: Cree Carmichael, CM Bayrock, and Joe Danforth belong to LilNate03, and Zack and Celeste Wehrenberg belong to Celrock.

"Location: Litwak's Arcade, The World Of Disney, November 19th 2108"

Two days passed since the incident at the museum happened. Hiro was still at Felix and Tamora's apartment, but he was still asleep, and GoGo, Honey Lemon, Wasabi, and Fred stopped by whenever they could to see if he would wake up. While Hiro was asleep, Tadahsi had brought Baymax back to SFIT and re-enabled the healthcare chip.

Hiro was having a nightmare about what had happened during the fight at the museum. But then he snapped out of the nightmare. For a moment, he struggled to move, but then he found that his limbs were too sluggish to shift even a little.

"Don't try to move, Hiro. It's alright. Your safe now." Felix ordered, gentle but firm.

"Where am I?" Hiro asked.

"My and Tammy's apartment." Felix replied.

Felix finally came into his line of sight after a few minutes of silence.

"You were badly injured in the fight. The rest of the team brought you to me for treatment." Felix explained.

"The guys... are they alright?" Hiro asked.

"They're all fine. Only a few minor scratches between the four of them. You were the one who was seriously hurt. It's been very touch-go for the past two days." Felix replied.

"Two days? I've been out... for two days?" Hiro asked.

"Yes." Felix replied.

"What... what happened to me?" Hiro asked.

All he could remember was getting hit and then the horrific pain in his chest. It was still there, but only vaguely, like it was just outside of his awareness, waiting to strike when he least expected it.

"You took a hit from Baymax. Even though he wasn't designed for combat, his inner structure is still very strong. Your armor is probably the only reason that you survived that blow at all. He broke several ribs, and it caused a flail chest injury. Do you know what that is?" Felix asked.

"Sorta. It happens in... car crashes?" Hiro asked, briefly squeezing his eyes shut in order to block out the memory of Baymax coming at him.

"That's right. But thankfully, I managed to fix it with my hammer. It healed completely, but you should still rest for a bit." Felix replied.

Hiro nodded.

"So it... it really happened? I wasn't dreaming? Akari, she... she really exists?" Hiro asked.

Felix nodded.

"It would seem so. GoGo showed me Baymax's footage of what happened. I think at the same time that we all do and do not want to believe it." Felix replied.

"Yeah." Hiro mumbled, gaze drifting up to the ceiling.

Felix looked at the door.

"Um, Hiro, there's someone who wants to see you." Felix said, nodding his head towards the door.

When Hiro followed his gaze, he saw the door open to reveal Tadashi and Cass standing on the other side.

"Tadashi? Aunt Cass? What... what are you doing here?" Hiro asked.

"What am we going here? Well, I'm glad someone felt it was important to let me and Aunt Cass know that my knuckle headed brother might be dying!" Tadashi replied incredulously.

"I'm sorry." Hiro whispered, finally feeling the tears start to fall.

Tadashi and Cass didn't say anything at first. Cass just charged toward the hospital bed, throwing her arms around him, while Tadashi just watched on with a small smile. It wasn't long before Hiro felt his neck start to grow wet with her tears.

"I'm sorry." Hiro whispered again.

"I almost lost you and Tadashi, my sister's boys. You two idiots can't keep doing this to me!" Cass sobbed into his neck as she held him.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." Hiro said over and over again, not sure as to how many times he repeated it as they held each other and cried.

"Location: Burbank, California, November 27th 2014"

In the past, in Burbank, California, a man had just ended his shift at the Walt Disney Animation Studios. He stepped into his apartment and turned on his laptop for last minute checking of his assignment before heading off to bed. While he did, he didn't notice a shadowy figure moving outside of his apartment. With an exhausted smile, he closed his laptop for the night. As soon as he did, he felt a cold breeze blowing into the room, which he found to be odd because he remembered closing his window earlier that morning before leaving for work.

He turned around just in time to see Akari, who had her mask on in order to conceal her identity, glaring at him from outside of his window. The man quickly picked up a phone so he could call the police, but Akari quickly used the microbots to grab him and knock him out. She carried him outside through the window and then tossed what looked like a metallic ball into the room before leaping out. The metal ball beeped loudly and glowed before a huge burst of explosion set off in the apartment. Akari watched the fire consume the man's apartment and adjusted her mask before she activated a time portal that went to 2108 and went through it, along with the man, who was being carried by the microbots.

"Location: San Fransokyo, The World Of Disney, November 19th 2108"

The man slowly awakened, but before he could see where he was, he was roughly thrown into a dark metal room that was in the warehouse. He groaned in pain and looked up to see that he was not alone in the room. He saw other people, four of which he recognized immediately. They were animators that had all worked on the production of Big Hero 6. However, there were six other people that the man didn't recognize. One of the people was a light skin African-American woman that had long black hair and brown eyes, and she wore an orange shirt, a black and green mini skirt, and a pair of pink heels. The second person was a man that had pale skin, short black hair, and brown eyes, and he wore a black shirt, red and black shorts, and a pair of black tennis shoes, and he also had tattoos that ran all over his arms and legs. The third person was a man that had pale skin, sandy brown hair, and brown eyes, and he wore a police uniform. The fourth person was a woman that had pale skin, long dark brown curly hair, and dark green eyes, and she wore a blue shirt, blue jeans, and black shoes. The fifth person was a teenage boy that had pale skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes, and he wore a light gray long sleeve shirt that had a bright red stripe that went across the center and around the entire width of the shirt, a pair of dark blue jeans, and black sneakers. And the sixth person was a 12 year old boy that had deathly pale skin, platinum blonde hair, and light blue eyes, and he had a small silver crown on his head and wore a light blue robe and light blue shoes.

"Zach, are you alright?" one of the animators, a man named Hans Jones, asked.

Zach shook his head as he sat and moved closer to the others.

"I'm not hurt, but... where are we?" Zach asked.

"I don't know, but Jones and I got kidnapped before you after leaving the company together. Some guy in a silver mask knocked us out and left us here in this room, so we don't know exactly where we are." one of the other animators, a woman named Anna Tanloa, replied.

"A mask? Who on earth is he and what does he want from us?" Zach asked, trying not to panic.

"Everyone who is an animator knows perfectly well who I am." a voice replied behind them.

Akari menacingly approached them, with the microbots moving around her feet and up against the walls. The captives scrambled into the corner in fear. Akari tapped the button on her mask, and it disappeared into her collar, revealing her face. The animators gasped in shock, while the other captives were confused because they didn't know about Akari

"It can't be." another of the animators, a man named Saul Piggs, said in shock.

"You cannot leave this place. I have an important job for all of you, and I will make sure that it will be carried out." Akari said coldly.

The African-American woman, who was named Cree Carmichael and happened to be from the past version of an alternate universe that was called the LilNate03 Universe, tried to reason with Akari, but she trembled all over.

"Listen, if it's money that you want, we can get you some..." Cree started to reason.

"Be silent or I'll have the microbots inflict pain to your body in ways that you don't want to imagine." Akari snapped harshly. She then opened a blueprint that had instructions for the Doomsday Machine and said "If you want to live longer, I suggest that you better start using your brains wisely." Akari said.

"Why are you doing this?" the dark brown haired woman, who was named Celeste Wehrenberg and also happened to be from 2014, asked in fear.

Akari glared at Celeste.

"Haven't you figured it out already? This is a revenge story." Akari replied.

The boy, who's name was Moon Benson, immediately shot up in fear.

"Juliet! Where's my sister?" Moon asked.

Moon was talking about a light pink female Luma that he was really close to and was usually his companion. Moon was from the year 2150, and he was the son of Princess Rosalina and a man that was named Charlie Benson, who happened to be the son of Daisy Patterson in his time. Akari turned to Moon with a frown on her face.

"She probably died while I kidnapped you in the future." Akari replied.

"The future? I don't understand." Moon asked, slowly shaking his head in confusion. He then asked "Juliet was trying to protect me. Why did you kill her?".

"Because she tried to get in my way. That was her mistake." Akari replied coldly.

Moon snapped. He cried out angrily and threw himself at Akari. However, he was suddenly pulled back by the microbots, and he continued to glare at the 14 year old girl.

"Take that back!" Moon shouted as tears rolled down his face.

Akari stared at him with a smile on her lips.

"I too lost someone important to me, so I understand your pain." Akari said. She then knelt down in front of Moon and said "And here's another thing. You can't go home again since your friends probably think that your dead, so you might as well start a new life with me.".

"I'd rather end your life." Moon growled, trying to free himself from the microbots grip.

Akari wasn't intimidated.

"Why don't we make a deal? You and the others that are here help me, and when the time comes, I'll let you go and you can return home to your family." Akari suggested, standing up.

"Like I'd help you? You killed my sister!" Moon spat.

Akari's lips formed a dark smile.

"You don't have any other choice, Prince Moon. You and the others are going to help me and the Syndicate remake the Doomsday Machine, whether you like it or not." Akari said.

"Never!" Moon yelled.

Akari sighed and commanded the microbots to bring her and Moon out of the room.

"Hey! Let him go, you stupid girl!" the officer, who was named Joe Danforth and was also from the past version of the the LilNate03 Universe, ordered angrily.

Akari glared at Joe and had the microbots grab him and throw him against a wall. The teenage boy, who was named Zack Wehrenberg and was the nephew of Celeste, and the black haired man, who was named CM Bayrock and was also from the past version of the LilNate03 Universe, ran over to help Joe. Meanwhile, Akari continued on her way with Moon.

Akari brought Moon into the room that had the Doomsday Machine and shoved him into a chair.

"Ow, don't be rough." Moon grumbled.

Akari placed a hand on his shoulder, squeezing it roughly.

"You are going to help me whether or not you want to, Moon. If you refuse to help me, I will go back to your time, find your parents and siblings, and burn them down to the ground." Akari warned.

Moon's eyes widened. The mental image of Rosalina, Charlie, and the Lumas going up in flames made his blood turned to ice. As much as he hated the thought of working with Akari and the Syndicate, the young boy had no other choice. He would not lose his entire family.

"I'll do it." Moon said.

Akari smirked and ruffled his hair, much to his disgust.

"What a good boy. You can start helping me right now." Akari said.
