After that rather intense battle, here's the finale for 'Line in the Sand'!

The SHIELD jet sped across the water, headed back to San Fransokyo. Behind them was the remains of a fortress created by Kryos-a member of a cabal of super-empowered beings called the Trans-Humans. And this cabal viewed Big Hero 6-a group of geniuses turned crime-fighters-as their biggest opposition.

Kryos developed a plan-to divide the group, he would target one of its members. And his target was one of the team's female members-GoGo. He had sown an environment of distrust between the team-and infidelity between her and Hiro-the team's leader and the genius that GoGo had fallen in love with. And to Hiro's credit-the plan worked.

Hiro had accused GoGo of being unfaithful and violating the trust between them. Hiro stared at GoGo, who was talking with Honey. I can build and create all kinds if gadgets and devices…and if something's broken, I can repair it with no problem…but how do I fix this relationship problem with GoGo?

Baymax announced, "We are preparing to land. Please ensure you are seated for your safety." The plane then descended, returning to the harbor where their journey had begun. Everyone got off the jet, and Fred said, "Well, I guess I'd better call SHIELD to come pick up their jet."

Baymax said, "I will scan you all to for injuries." The robot's mini-computers whirred as his head turned from one hero to the other. Baymax said, "All of you are cleared of any serious injuries. However, I would suggest several days of rest."

Hiro said, "Sounds good. I'm concerned for when I get back to the café."

Everyone gave Hiro a strange look-and Hiro said, "You guys know Cass is gonna freak after that light show tonight."

Everyone went their separate ways, and Hiro heard Honey said, "Hey Go. You up for a BFF sleepover?"

GoGo said, "Sure." And Hiro saw both the chemist and the speedster head off towards Honey's place. Wasabi had left for his girl's place, and Fred was waiting for the SHIELD liaison. So that left Hiro and Baymax. Hiro said, "C'mon, bud. Let's get you back to Cass's."

The flight back was rather quiet-until Baymax said, "Were you able to repair your relationship status with GoGo?"

Hiro replied, "I don't know. Only time will tell."

The medic-bot then said, "We are approaching the Lucky Cat Café. Cass Hamada is awake. She is expecting you."

Hiro said, "Alright, bud." Baymax landed behind the café, and Hiro entered through the private entry. He went up the walkway-and as he did, he heard the TV. He saw his aunt on the couch, watching a movie. Hiro said, "Aunt Cass…I'm back."

She turned, and quickly got up. She then hugged him, and said, "Hiro…"

She then held him at arm's length, and said, "Young man…do you have any idea…what went through my mind tonight!? I saw that explosion on the news…" she gestured towards the TV.

Hiro said, "We're fine, Aunt Cass. We got GoGo back, too."

Cass said, "That's good…where is she?"

Hiro said, "She and Honey are having a BFF sleepover. And it feels like she's right there…and I can't reach her. Aunt Cass…I'm a genius at all kinds of things…but I just can't figure out how to fix this."

Cass said, "That's because the answer isn't here." She touched his head to make the point. She then brought her hand to his chest, and said, "You need to look in here for the answer."


Meanwhile, Honey and GoGo were starting their BFF sleepover. They had grabbed some grub from an all-night store, and were in the process of settling in to watch some movies. As Honey sat in front of the TV with a plate of pizza, GoGo came out of the shower, drying her hair with a towel.

She flopped down with some pizza, and Honey asked, "So…"

GoGo replied, "So…what?"

Honey said, "What's going to happen with you and Hiro? And you guys still together? Or are you going to stay friends?"

GoGo said, "Look…so much has happened. And I do want to resolve these issues with Hiro. But I don't want to think about it tonight."

Honey sighed…it seemed that tonight, GoGo had erected a barrier that even she couldn't break. But a sleepover would be good to decompress after everything they went through. Honey then said, "You wanna do something tomorrow? Just us girls?"

GoGo thought about it…she rarely did anything with her BFF, and it might be nice to go out and do something with her. GoGo said, "Alright, Honey."

As they were preparing to enjoy their movie, a chime played on Honey's phone. It was a text from Hiro. Honey then said, "I wonder what this could be about."

She looked at the message-Important meeting-usual spot. Tuesday midnight.

Honey said, "I wonder what Hiro's going to talk about at this meeting."


Tuesday night came-and as it was Hero business, everyone wore their hero gear. They gathered on top of one of the nearby office buildings-Hiro and Baymax arrived first. Wasabi arrived next, and Honey and GoGo arrived right after him. Finally, Fred showed up.

Once they were all there, Hiro said, "I'm glad you all came."

Fred said, "Sure, dude. What's happening?"

Hiro turned away from the group, and said, "I'm going to open with an open forum. The reason I'm doing this is because over the last few weeks, I've acted like-no, I have been-an immature, insecure, jealous, petty, selfish jackass. Did I miss anything?"

Hiro paused, and then said, "So…if anyone wants to pile on, feel free…"

Wasabi coughed, and said, "Well, Hiro-you know that trust is the cornerstone of any relationship-whether lovers, friends…even teammates. And that we should be open and free with expressing ourselves."

GoGo said, "And that trust…it takes so much to build…and so little to destroy."

Honey said, "And we need to respect each other's space-and recognize the need for when each of us needs support from others."

Fred then added, "Because trust is the grease that keeps the engine of Big Hero 6 running!"

Hiro said, "That's unique…but a very valid point. All of you have very valid points." Hiro reached down, and grabbed a pile of sticks. He said, "Aunt Cass and I gathered these yesterday." He then handed the others a stick.

They each looked at him strangely-until Hiro said, "Now-break those sticks." The other members looked at each other-but did as Hiro said. The air was filled with the sounds of the sticks breaking.

Hiro then brought out a bundle of sticks tied together. He handed it to Fred first, and said, "Here-try to break this bundle."

Fred gave it his all-but the bundle did not break. Hiro said, "Maybe someone stronger…how about you, Wasabi?"

Wasabi grabbed the bundle-and bent and pushed-but the bundle did not break. Fred said, "So…what was the point of that?"

Hiro pointed to the bundle, and said, "This is what we should be-a group with an unbreakable bond." He then motioned to the broken pieces of sticks on the ground. He said, "That is what I nearly did-I let my jealousy nearly break our team apart. And it nearly ruined the best thing I ever had." Everyone noticed Hiro's glance towards GoGo when he said that.

Hiro then said, "But…I am going to promise this. I know I am human…we all are. And none of us is perfect…"

He looked at the rest of the group-a group of men and women who had been in the most bitter of battles with him. Men and women who walked through the worst that evil had-and still prevailed. Hiro then said "My promise…is that no matter what-I will be here for all of you. And I hope-and pray-that despite my actions, you will be here for me, as well."

It was as though he was speaking to GoGo-but his words were for the whole team. Wasabi said, "Look, Hiro-we battled one of those Trans-Humans. There's no telling how many more are out there. And we're all that stands between them and the rest of humanity."

Hiro said, "So will you stand with me?" Hiro then drew an imaginary line with his boot. Hiro then said, "Will you cross this line and stand with me against them? And if you choose not to…I will not begrudge your choice."

That night, 5 stood on the other side of that line-and 5 walked across it. Fred said, "Dude-I will. Especially if I get to work with the SHIELD liaison again." Everyone looked at Fred strangely-until Fred said, "What? She's a hottie!"

Honey said, "I'm in…I can't wait to blow something else up!"

Hiro said, "Easy, sugar…"

Wasabi said, "We can't turn our backs on humanity…or on you, Hiro."

Baymax said, "I am ready to assist you anyway I can."

GoGo was the last to cross. She said, "Hiro…I am experiencing so many different emotions. I don't know if I can do this with you."

Hiro said, "I…I understand if you want to back out. You aren't ready to trust me yet…"

Gogo then said, "It doesn't mean that I want out! Not with this! And not with you, either!"

Everything became eerily silent. Hiro turned to GoGo-who was trying her best to look at the interesting lights in the nearby building. Wasabi said, "OK, I think I'll call this meeting adjourned! Seconded?"

At nearly the same time, Honey and Fred raised their arms. Wasabi said, "Alright, then! Hiro-we'll catch you at 'Friday Family Night'!" And with that, the rest of the team left-leaving Hiro and GoGo.

Hiro said, "GoGo…can we start over?

GoGo said, "Hiro…I saw those pictures. And when I did…I knew exactly how you felt. Because I felt the same thing when I saw you kiss Serena. The hurt, the betrayal…"

Hiro said, "I should not have come at you with those accusations of infidelity. But Cass said…if I don't forgive myself for what I did to you…then I cannot expect you to do the same." Hiro extended his arms towards the sppedster.

GoGo walked towards him…and entered his embrace. The comfort…the warmth…how I missed this…how much I missed you…

GoGo said, "Ha…just like our last rooftop hug."

Hiro said, "Yeah…but I'm the tall one now."

She chuckled, and they held each other at arms' length. Hiro then leaned in towards GoGo, and gently pressed his lips to hers. She brought her arms up to his neck, and he put his arms around her waist. They broke the kiss, and GoGo turned to look out over the city. Hiro came up behind her, and held her-protectively, but with a touch of gentleness.

He said, "I know I had asked before…but are we good?"

GoGo smiled, and replied, "Despite everything that we went through, we're good. Hell, at least we're like other couples."

Hiro said, "What do you mean?"

GoGo said, "Did you believe that we would not have problems? That's not real life. Every couple has disagreements…fights…other issues. But the true mettle is not when things are great-but when everything goes to hell-that is what can make or break a couple. And mister-you are not going anywhere!"

Hiro said, "Right now…I can think of no better place to be…"


As this was happening, the leader of the Trans-Humans, Lord Maximus, met with the rest of his cabal. Pyros said, "Kryos had failed, Lord Maximus."

Luminos-master of lightning-added, "Not only did he not sever their bond-but their bond is stronger than before."

Maximus said, "Kryos's success or failure is irrelevant. And it matters little if they were broken or not…they have yet to see the true power of the Trans-Humans!" Maximus then reclined in his chair, planning the next phase in the war against Big Hero 6…

And with that, 'Line in the Sand' comes to a close! So how did I handle Hiro and GoGo's reconciliation? Liked it? Hated it? Not sure what you felt? As always, comment, fave, and follow!
