Okay, so this is a little "mini-series" between drabbles, branching from chapter X. This takes place sometime when Tadashi and Hiro are attending the same high school, with Hiro still pretty young. This is part 2 of 3.
Disclaimer: I do not own Big Hero 6. The story title also comes from Travelling by Ambulance by Monarchy.
Burnt Fingers
XI. The Duty of a Brother, pt. 2
Hiro couldn't remember what had started this argument.
All he knew was he suddenly found himself pinned up against a locker, a much bigger boy glaring down at him.
"You're such a nerd, Hamada," the bully sneered, smacking Hiro's head against the back of the locker.
Pain exploded in his head but he didn't make a sound, fear taking his voice. His tormentor was pulling his fist back, cheered on by the crowd of classmates around him. Hiro shut his eyes, bracing.
But there was no punch, and he suddenly found himself crumpling to the floor, shielding his face instinctively.
Hope you enjoy.
