Chapter 33 (The Promise)
In the home of The Parrs everyone was a sound asleep except for Violet who just woke up, and still in her bed while looking at her digital clock to see what time was it at the moment. On the clock it read 5:22 am, making Violet to get up with a yawn and did a arm stretch, while her brain had some blood flowing through. She slightly jumped up when exactly remembering what Hiro have requested from her and the other three to do yesterday and that day is today. Thus, making her shake off the tiredness form her body and pulled her messy hair back to see completely before doing her next move.
She got out of the bed and went making it back up, right before getting the early chance of taking a wash up since Dash was knocked out cold as he usually out beats her to the bathroom, with his super speed making the oldest piss off when he does that. But luckily for Violet she didn't have to put up with it due to mean too early in the morning, and went to turning on the sink faucet and went to grabbing her wash cloth and grab the bar of Dove soap and went to washing herself. Taking about ten minutes with brushing her teeth and blow drying her hair after washing it, and giving it's beauty she walked out of the bathroom with the lights turned off and march her way back into her room to get dress. Violet pulled her middle drawer and pulled out her matching black jogging suit, and then pulled out her matching color Nikes and went putting them on as she hadn't have the chance to wear the gift that Momma Abuelita have brought her for Christmas.
Done with putting some brand new clothes she order her feet to go downstairs quietly, and made her way to the kitchen and open her box of strawberry Pop Tarts and heated them up in the microwave, and started eating both tarts with a glass of cold milk to wash the sweets down. Then after putting her empty glass cup in the sink she then headed for the garage, and grabbed her purple custom made bike that had her name written on the side of the bike in which Helen had brought her two years ago, and grabbed her helmet that was just a plain purple bike helmet. Violet took her time pushing her bike out of the garage and quietly pushing it to the front, after closing the garage door and open the front door and quietly closed back. With a sigh of relief after making the attempt to sneak out of the house with her Mom and Dad not noticing or even heard her going down the steps, she put on her helmet and then hopped on her bike and pedal her way out of her neighborhood as the sun was slowly rising.
At the Robinsons, after going through the air tube and dropped down to the second garage building, beside the other garage that he and the boys were off limits to after their time travel adventure. Wilbur had his old Mr Incredible black t-shirt with Mr Incredibles symbol signature, that his Uncle Bob have given him since he had a whole box full of shirts in his private study from where his old Super stuff was in. He went over to the corner and grabbed one of his skateboards that were hanging up on the rack and headed out, without the need for wearing a helmet as he was pretty good riding his skateboard without help of using any gear protection. He got that gene from his Mom as she was an expert on riding skateboards when she was a little girl, and later on use her skateboard skills when doing Super work when going on a speed chase against robbers who tried to out run her after robbing Todaylands National Bank. Franny told Wilbur that story before as it made her get her face on the front page of Todaylands Newspaper. When exiting out of the garage door the door and double check to see if it was lock, not wanting to repeat the same mistake last time before skating his way out of his family's property and out of the neighborhood.
"Oh, boy this is better be worth it Hiro. Because this is making your girlfriend very tipsy." said Penny who was trying to shake off the tiredness while pop open her small bottle of five hour energy, and drunk it down and went to opening another one. Penny was already skating her way to their secret HQ as it was hidden in the woods where the area used to be a park, that was shut down due to someone buying the whole land and authorize that no one should enter, and if so they would be charged for trespassing. Who was responsible for all this?. That person was none other than Wilbur Lewis Robinson, and his huge allowance that he saved up from working for his Dad at the family company, while pulling shifts at his Aunt Cass's Cafe and Aunt Sierra's flower shop, and finally working at the Shoe shop. Every cent counts especially when Grandpa Bud would give Wilbur at least two hundred thousand dollars a month for every time he needs to find his missing false teeth.
Wilbur knew better than charging his own grandpa to put in his time on searching for his teeth, but Grandpa Bud didn't mind paying his grandson that much as he recalled from back in his day, that working doesn't come free but with a price no matter what the job is either cutting grass or even washing your neighbors car. With all that money gained throughout the years form the age five up to now, he invested his money on buying Todaylands old forest park to the city in which they didn't hesitate on getting that money even though it's from a kid. Penny skated her way and stopped by hitting the brakes on her skates, and the went up to the gated wire fence that two signs big enough for everyone to read as one said Do Not Enter, while the other sign to the right said with excellent warning High Voltage Fence!. "Smart idea on putting a fence around the place, let alone putting up warning signs Wilbur." said Penny, before opening the latch and pull the big gate door open to let herself in and close it right back with the latch back on. She presumed back skating and went deep into the woods, and when seeing she was far away from the gates. She stopped to take off her book bag and pull out her red Jordans to replace the skates on her feet, and continue on foot while putting her skates inside her book bag and put the one strap back on her shoulder.
Penny already see the massive white building in front of her that was the size of a mansion, as Wilbur have made Carl and his mini self's to build the building that he and the others had put together on the blueprint. The building was absolutely nice as it had a nice brick brown rock steps to the entrance, while on the sides have gardens of multiple flowers to make the place beautiful. In the back was really nice as it had the landing pad for their jet that Hiro and Wilbur were still trying to put together, while in the upper back was the training field that was high tech with built-in hologram obstacles to give it some life experience that money can buy, as all the tech was Robinsons Incs finest equipment that Wilbur had access to when getting the things that was needed of their secret HQ. It wasn't obvious what their superhero base was called Team Future Tower or TF Tower for short, as it was a great name for the place as it was livable to stay in like any other house.
Penny went up to the door and reach her hand on the hand print scan pad that was on the right side of the door, as the building was designed to only let members of their team to enter, as Hiro programmed the computer for safety precautions. It took two seconds for the pad to complete it's scan before the hand print lighted up and hear the female voice of the computer speak. "Welcome, Penny Forrester. Member of Team Future." it said, before Penny heard the door being unlocked and seeing it slid right open. Upon entering inside and let the white door that had the red signature TF on the outside, to close and lock back. Penny drop her bag to the side and stepped down to the living room where Miguel was currently seating down on the long black comfortable couch with a big bowl of camel peanut popcorn beside him, and watching a Marvel movie on the 146 inch flat screen TV with a Sprite bottle in hand.
He turned his head and smiled to see his cousin here on time, as he swallow the sweet sugary popcorn that was in his mouth before saying. "Buenos días, Penny. Care to join me in watching some Marvel?." Penny answered back with a smile as she came over and jumped over, and sat down beside her cousin grab a hand full of popcorn and said. "Sí, cuz, sí. I'm assuming you beat everyone here by going Rider and wasted no time relaxing. Am I correct?." Miguel laughed as he set his Sprite down on the glass table, and then take his boots and socks off to make himself even more comfortable while Penny did the same since they live here on hangout time. "Well, actually Penny, I've drove here regularly so that way no one would follow me here, especially the cops. Since now, I'm a wanted Super now in the whole district of Todayland." Penny could only nod as this was true as it was all over the news in both the channel news, and in the newspapers as her cousin was a hit throughout the world and the chief of police is putting a price on Miguel's head that was wroth a good cent.
"Is Hiro here?." Penny asked before grabbing Miguel's soda to drink it as he didn't mine. "Yeah, his hear. In fact his been here all through the night after the small party. He never left the HQ." Miguel said, eating another hand full of popcorn to consume. Penny got real concern about her boyfriend as this was the first time that Hiro, would stay all night in his Tech room in which she knows that from the heart as that section is of the HQ is his, despite that Wilbur sometimes there with him but it's officially Hiro's Tech House. "Oh, hi, baby." Penny and Miguel looked over and see Hiro just coming out from the elevator that was the one-way access to the Tech room as he was walking towards them, with a white cover table in his hand while his finger from his right hand was swiping and tapping away on something on the screen.
"What are you working on?." asked Miguel
Hiro came around and showed the two his latest work as both Penny and Miguel looked, and see a digital blueprint. On the computer screen blueprint it showed a second version of the Iron X suite, only this time it was red and gold all over and had a girls body figure making Penny ask this question. "Is this suite for me?." Hiro looked at his girlfriend with a smile and said. "Yes, it is for you. I call this suit Iron Girl or Iron G for short. I've just used Tadashi's original blueprint and just adjust the body figure. You like?." "Actually I do. Thanks for thinking about me and thank you, for getting ready to build it." Penny said before getting up and kissed her boyfriend, as Hiro kissed back as he loved those sweet lips right before breaking the kissing. "I'm putting it together as we speak. I'm didn't waste precious time in the Tech room planning. No, sir, I've been doing both plus I've just got done improving my Super suit."
Penny and Miguel was very impressed on Hiro's sudden work and see he really didn't waste his time all through the night, and also tell that his pulling his own weight in the HQ before neither of them got the chance to begin doing their part. At that moment both Violet and Wilbur entered in after having some R and R with one another right before going inside their HQ, as the two were currently holding hands while approaching their family. "Alright Hiro since you called this meeting to order. And so speak what's on your mind and if you just got us up at the crack of dawn for nothing, then I won't hesitate on Kung Fuing your ass." Violet warned with both hands on her hips and a little bit of a sour face expression. "Hehe, uh, don't jump the gun on shoving your Kung Fu foot up my ass. The reason why I bought you guys here to our HQ is to tell you guys, that it's time for us to live up our hero team name. Guys it's time to be Supers...for real this time."
"What about the time when we helped our Poppa Hector get his photo up on the ofrenda, and unband music from our family...on Miguel's side." said Penny with a nervous chuckle.
"Okay, first off Pen, we helped a dead man get his life back from his so called former friend who eventually is forgotten in the living world, in which I hope that jerk rots down there. Plus, that doesn't count saving a life." said Hiro, after doing one more check over on the design on Penny's Tech Super suit.
"One, I agree with the part that Ernesto De La Cruz can rot down in the Land of Misery. And two, I bet Poppa Hector is upset on the small disrespect. In which I should know since I do have access to The Land of the Remembered." pointed out Miguel, before eating some more camel peanut popcorn.
"Oh, yeah, now that your the new Rider. You can visit The Land of the Remembered and Forgotten." said Violet who helped herself with eating the popcorn.
"By the way Miguel, how's Tadashi doing down their with Mamma Imelda and the whole family?." asked Wilbur, as that was a good opportunity to know what happened after his cousin was dead.
"Oh, his doing fine. And I believe his a bit of an alcoholic, but he is old enough to drink. I'm just surprised that he waited until he died to start drinking." Miguel said, honestly telling everyone the inside of their dead relative with a not so proud about saying that information.
"Huh, I guess Tadashi was right. He did say he'll never drink until the day he dies, and frankly he lived up to that promise." said Hiro, who had doubts about his older brothers promise while being glad that he didn't put money on that bet. Just the thought about Tadashi drinking, just make Hiro shake his head to believe his brother just waited until he died, just so he can drink some alcohol for his accomplishment.
"But anyway you guys, like I said before we need to seriously get our selves together if we want to save civilians, from say...Yama for example or even go toe to toe with that new villain named The Underminer. In which we can easy take him down without any team work issues."
Violet could strongly agree with Hiro on the team work as she and the others have always been on the same page, by hanging out with each other after that memorable Family Reunion that took place many years ago and always work together on common goal like a family should. Unlike her Mom and Dad who wanted both her and Dash to keep not only their baby brother Jack Jack, but also keeping the bystanders from getting hurt while they go relive the moment of being Supers and hogging all the spotlight. In fact if her aunts was there when The Underminer wrecked the parking lot, after Dash and Rosa's track meet was over then they would jump the chance on keeping them away from the awesome action fight and relive the Glory Days that they lost so many years ago, just because that guy sued her Dad for saving his life and didn't want to get save. All five have heard that story from their family especially watching that historic event on YouTube, and believed that something wasn't quite right about that image. It was rare for someone to commit suicide in Todayland since the city have invested it's money on helping others to prevent themselves from ending their lives, as this was a known fact in the brochure for tourists who wanted to visit Todayland and its districts.
They wished that they can go to that year and investigate that timeline before it even happened yet, but sadly they didn't process a time machine after Wilbur told them that his Dad had scrapped the time machine after the whole Doris issue, and destroyed his hardwork and never again will he or anyone else will mess with time again. "When should we put our plan on being actual Supers into action?." asked Wilbur. "When the time is right or Time itself will tell us up front." said Hiro, turning off the tablet in his hand and put it underneath his arm. When getting the meeting out of the way and after heading back into the elevator to go down to his Tech room. Hiro resumed back to putting together Penny's suit while adding some things to it to make it very different from his own, since she was very good when in combat from both in real life and on the stage when use to be a star in Hollywood. And when getting that done he was going then jump to Wilburs Super suit but automatically remember that Wilbur told him that he already had someone making him one, and all he had to do was add some tech to the suit and be done with making Super suits for now, and try to focus on putting the TF Jet together with Wilburs help since this was their project together and he didn't want to do it by himself, I mean who would dare do something like that to a none blooded cousin?.
And speaking of Wilbur, he was currently riding his skateboard down into the district of San Fransokyo and headed straight up to the far corner to reach his destination to pick up his Super suit. He arrived at the laser gated fence and looked at the massive mansion that was far away from the fence, right before getting off his skateboard to pick it up and carry it in his right hand. Wilbur then headed over to the security booth where it was just a big black box with a screen in the middle and a red button on the bottom, and pressed the call button and see the screen lit up showing a security guard in shades. "State your business kid." He demanded. "Hi, um, I'm here to pick up my personal secret clothing from Edna Mode." Wilbur began as he didn't want to to reveal that his a Super, in case the guy was a spy or something.
"Look kid, Edna Mode is too busy to deal with visitors. And whatever you came here for, you need to forget about it and wait until she call you." He spoke again, as he wasn't in the mood for visitors himself.
"No, wait sir, Miss Mode sent me a text message last night that my clothes is ready to be picked up. So, if you could just..." Before Wilbur can say any more, he saw someone on the screen hitting the security guard with her newspaper and tell she was ignored about her security guards stink attitude.
"Go, Go, Go!. I texted the boy here to pick up his things, now go and somewhere and do something." said a woman voice as she pushed the guard out of view, and stuck her face in the whole screen and looked at Wilbur real good. "I swear everytime I see, you looked just like your mother. You have her hair color, eyes, but you have your fathers charmining looks." said Edna Mode who then turn down the fence to let Wilbur in as he skateboard his way inside, and wasted no time reaching to the massive house. When reaching to the front he saw the door open up and reveal the owner of the place, in her casual outfit that she always wear as she had the most biggest smile she can make as she said. "Darling, please come in, come in. I've been waiting for you." Wilbur smiled when grabbing his skateboard and went right in and close the door behind him and joined Edna Mode in walking in the hallway, where she had her recent Super suit costumes hanged up in both walls as the small Japanese American women begin to talk.
"You know Wilbur, your mother and your aunts came to me for their Super suits when they were in their teens. That's was when they were in shape. Now, except for Franny they are out of shape, especially Cass. She always chewing on something sweet or fired, and keep gaining weight like a obese girl." said Edna Mode as she and Wilbur walked left, and walled downstairs where Edna makes her finest Super suit and show her latest work to her clients, as she loved to show her work before giving the suits to them. They stepped down on the last step and went forward with a few walk steps, and stopped at the locked door as Edna went to typing in the code to the lock pad and then waited for the small microphone to pop up to say her name. "Edna Mode." Suddenly a machine gun popped out from the ceiling and aimed at a scared Wilbur Robinson, as felt like he getting ready to pee in his pants. "And guest." Edna said making the machine gun go back into the ceiling and the locked door slid open, making the two go in after Wilbur gained back his coolness.
This was the first time for Wilbur to see Edna's workshop as everything was high tech, and the room temperature was just perfect to tolerate as he joined Edna in the two comfortable chairs as she poured herself and Wilbur a cup of freshly hot tea, and fixed two types of cookies on each plate. "Jasmine tea and cookies?." She offered when handing him his refreshments. "Oh, thank you Miss Mode." said Wilbur. "Oh, please darling you can call me Aunty Mode you know?." Edna said grabbing the remote control from the small table, and pressed play to begin the real life presentation as the section that they were seating on begin to move as well, since this presentation was something to see and witness.
When moving to the right while seeing the big long chamber in front of them, Wilbur saw his Super suit being pulled in and worn by a dummy as he took a bite of his cookie. The suit was exactly how Wilbur have wanted it when he gave the color design to Edna a couple of weeks ago, as the color and the design itself was the version of his lightning bolt shirt except of having the thunderbolt symbol, it had his Super name initial in golden color that has the capital C and had the capital T behind it and made it two letters fit together perfectly. The main color of the suit and mask was navy blue and perfect fit based on seeing it. "Your Captain Lightning Bolt, Super suit can sustain anything that's been thrown at it weather it's bullets firing at it." When saying that, for machine guns popped out and went to firing at the suit and proved it was bullet proof, as the guns disappeared from sight. "Fire." A flame torch pulled down from the ceiling and fired flames at the suit, causing Wilbur to shield his eyes a little from the hot flames after it was done shooting fire at his suit. "And even of course can take on my favorite weapon. Acid." said Edna when bucket of acid dropped on top of the suit and did it's thing by burning through the fabric, but noting happened to the suit to Wilburs surprise. When after seeing the suit be washed down in cool water and get a fast air dry, it wasn't seen anymore when moving to the end of the chamber.
"So I'm going to be invincible." Wilbur said nodding with a grin.
"Hmm, somewhat but you'll still going to feel the pain when bullets hit you. And so my tip for you darling is to don't get shot especially in your head." Edna looked at the boy as he nodded and a little disappointed that he still going to get hurt like any other Super. "Now, I know you've came here for your Super suit. But while making it for you I too the liberty of finishing up making Luisa son's Super suit as well, since I really didn't like that biker outfit he worn." Wilbur turn his attention to Edna Mode when she mention Miguel and couldn't say no on asking his question. "How did you know that Miguel is the Skull Rider?." Edna chuckled softly after receiving that question as she took the moment to take a sip on her tea and sat it down on the table and crossed her legs. She looked at Wilbur with a smile on her face and then said. "Sweetie I know everything what's been going on with you kids. If anything, your aunts keep me informed on what's going on with you kids, plus your cousin Rosa have snitched to your Aunt Luisa about her witnessing Miguel's transformation into the Spirit of Justice." "Ah, so Rosa was the one to find out about Miguel first before me or the rest had find out." said Wilbur before feeling his seat begin to move once more as they were back at level one of the sight seeing.
Out came another dummy that had on a black Super outfit with no mask and had a heavy duty form with boots, and the symbol was two combine letters of SR with red fiery flames around it as Edna Mode begin to explain her design. "Miguel's Super suit wasn't easy like all the other suits that I've designed over the years. I have to do some old book study on the power of the Skull Rider and tried to make the suit flame or heat resistant, whenever the boy decides to turn up the heat in battle. The suits body structure his heavy duty fabric but also unnoticeable because once he put it on he won't feel the heaviness, and it's safe to touch when or after he flames on so you don't have to worry about suffering from degree burns." After showing that Miguel's suit can do absolutely the same thing as Wilburs, Edna then packed the suites in one big white box and tied it up in a not and set it down at the table, as she and Wilbur were now currently in her exotic living room talking about the last thing about the suits. "Just like I did with the matching Incredibles suits for Bob, Helen, and the three kids, I've installed tracking chips in both of the suits in case something happens to the both of you." She said going over her sketch book for looking at recent work. "Okay, so I just wanted to say thanks, and on the behalf of myself and Team Future. I would like that you would keep this conversation and the suits to ourselves please." Edna stopped looking at her sketch book and lifted her eyes with a arched brow. "Oh?. And why not?." She asked.
Wilbur rubbed the back of his head as his mind was trying to put together the words to say, and made sure it was acceptable to Edna's ears for the sake of his team. "B.. B.. Because my Mom and our Aunts wouldn't want us to play superhero, since the Supers Ban Law Act is still active. And we are truly risking it for the sake of Todayland." Edna Mode then put her sketch book down and lean back in her chair with her left hand fingers were rubbing her chin while humming. "Yes, it is true. You kids would risk it since you five have quite the history of doing things that you shouldn't. But I say...Go For It!." She said jumping out of her chair and lifted both arms in the air with both hands fisted. "W.. W.. What?." asked a jaw dropped Wilbur as he can't believe his own ears on what he just heard. "You herd me!. Do it!. You kids are today's generation and knowing ya, you really don't give a damn about the law. Heck you lazy generation don't want to even vote during election season, all because ya think your votes don't count. Ya sounded stupid when you said it." Blinking his eyes and slowly nodded after getting that talk, Wilbur then said his goodbyes and grabbed the box and skateboard and headed on out to go back to TF Tower to give his Super suit to Hiro to add some tech to it since he didn't have any superpowers, while placing Miguel's Super suit in the suit chamber and hug it up to the formerly empty tube, besides Violet's Super suit that she recently put her costume in their since she figure that their was no point in carrying it if she's just going to stand on the sidelines and prevent civilians from getting hurt while Bob and Helen have their fun on stopping villains.
He left the HQ after done putting Miguel's newly Super suit up and headed back home, and go do whatever to pass the time while Hiro was adding tech to Wilburs suit, just after finishing Penny's armory suit. It didn't take long for the second oldest of the Hamada siblings to be done and closed up shop, and rode his bike back to the Cafe and try to relax into his room but that was a low possibility of that even happening. When he entered into his, Vanellepe, and Honey Lemons room he saw his baby sister standing up on top of the computer desk trying to reach for her glass cased mint condition limited 1966 Incredible Hulks toy that had Stan Lee's signature on the golden mantle. "V what are you doing?." Hiro asked while taking his shoes and socks off. Vanellepe had her eyes focusing on grabbing her mint condition collectors item but spoke, while struggling to grab her object. "What does it look like?. I'm trying to get my glass cased 1966 mint condition Incredible Hulk toy, so I can give it a good cleaning and give it some glass shine." Hiro just rolled his eyes at his sisters response and her attempt to get the toy that costed her over a thousand dollars at Comic Con, but she was willing to pay for it. When he mean Vanellepe paying for it, it was Penny who paid to get her that toy let alone get her those old and new Marvel comic books for free, since she and Stan Lee were quite good friends since Penny did played the main roll character of the new version of The SpiderGwen movie. He also remembered Penny once invited the Marvel Comic Book Legend to her house, and hang out with them while discussing her role as Gwen Stacy aka SpiderGwen. Hiro's mind of the old memory came to a painful halt when Vanellepe accidently pushed her collectors item off the shelf, and let it accidently land hard on Hiro's foot thus making the teen absorb that painful pain.
"Oh, what the hell Vanellepe!?. Ow, that freaking hurt my whole foot!." He said holding his right foot and took a seat on his computer chair, while Vanellepe who felt guilty had on a innocent face as she said in a cute.
"Oops, sorry Bro. I.. I.. I thought I had it." Hiro was getting ready to cuss his baby sister out like he has never done before, that is until he and Vanellepe heard something in front of them that was coming from Honey Lemons side of the room.
There standing up after done being inflated stood none other than Tadashi's latest work Baymax, who walked off his charging unit and made his way towards them and stop. He looked down and see that the edge of the bed was blocking his way and looked at the kids, who looked back at him to see what his going to do next in which was turning sideways and went in slowly. Hiro was impressed by how good his older brother had put the work in on making Baymax a smart android just like Carl, who Uncle Cornelius had put together when he was just thirteen years old and so on. Baymax made it out from the other side of the room and approach the kids and greeted them with what he programmed to say and did a wave. "Hello, My name is Baymax. Your healthcare provider. Hello Hiro. Hello Vanellepe." Vanellepe smiled and cheerfully said. "Oh, hi Baymax. It's good to see you again buddy."
"I don't understand. How is he still active?." asked Hiro before rubbing his sore foot.
"Oh, did you know?. Our older brother finished Baymax to its fullest and he wanted to make sure that he doesn't get damaged, since people over there in the Tech Department can hold grudges for someone's success and all." Vanellepe explained while giving her glassed case that had her action figure in it and went to polishing and spit cleaning the glass.
"I was activated when I hear you say ow. Now, on the scale of one through ten how do you rate your pain?." Baymax asked when showing the scale on his body, while Hiro had another say in the matter.
"You should say how I rate my pain on killing my sister with her stupid toy." He looked at her with daggers in her eyes as she stick her tongue out. "Get out of your feelings stupid." Vanellepe spat out before focusing back to keeping her toy nice and classy. Hiro rolled his eyes again and gave a huff in frustration as he resumed back to the robot that is Baymax who was waiting for his response. "I'll give it an eight." Baymax then went over to his injured patient and went to taking out a roll of bandage and went wrapping Hiro's foot, after doing a full body scan. Then he gave Hiro two pain killers and a bottle water that was in the small cooler, that Honey Lemon have left for them to share. "By the way Hiro, your sister have activated me during the night when you were asleep and needed some healthcare in which was a emotion issue." Baymax looked back at the other side of the room and saw one of Tadashi's hats that Honey Lemon always sleeps with when she goes to bed to feel that his presence was still there with her. "I know what happened to Tadashi. I once told Vanellepe that with the proper diet and exercise your older brother should live a longer life, that was until she told me that he died in the fire explosion." said Baymax as he turn his head back to Hiro who was now feeling sad on that memory, as he was there when the building blow up in flames as Vanellepe too felt that heavy feeling in her chest.
"Y.. Y.. Yeah, she wasn't wrong when she told you that." Hiro responded with a depressed moody voice.
"I'm sorry for your loss you two. But rest of sure his in a better place." said Baymax
"Yeah, we know since Miguel been visiting the dead after the party last night, and he did say he was going to visit again. I told him that he should bring me and Vanellepe to visit not only Tadashi but also see our Mom and Dad." Hiro said as he relaxed as the pills were kicking in his system and feel his foot being pain free.
Baymax nodded and said. "Since now that I both have you two here, I can finally begin my work. I took some information from the computer when aiding Vanellepe, and know what to do with your depression sickness." Both the Hamada siblings looked at Baymax with their eyebrows raised as to what the robot has in mind, as Vanellepe was the one to ask. "Please don't tell you're going to give us the talk about puberty. Cause you did that with me and I didn't want to know about growing hair down here again." She pointed her private area as she didn't like discussing about her not yet mature body, and thought her aunts would give her the talk or at least Aunt Cass would. "Oh, no, no not this time. I'm going to be using the steps on curing your depression. The first step is talking to your friends in which I also took the liberty of gathering your none relatives phone numbers, in which I loved how your combined family came to be as the long story history is quite interesting." Baymax said automatically contacting Violet, Wilbur, Penny, and Miguel from his stomach and heard something clicking from a far. Hiro was going to reject the idea on calling his friends/cousins but Baymax passed him by, and went getting something from the corner and picked up something off the desk.
"What's in your hands Baymax?." Vanellope asked after setting her prized possession on the desk, and approach her big marshmallow like robot friend.
Baymax turned around to face the two and show what's in his hands, as it was the surviving piece of Hiro's microbot that was left after the fire was put out. Vanellepe look down at it and see it was moving to her surprise as this was completely strange to her, as she knew her robotics very well and know that this wasn't suppose to be active unless...someone was producing more of it and controlling it in the process. She insanely took the piece that was in the small glassed container and went showing it to Hiro. "Do you see what I see Hiro?." She asked. Hiro examine what his seeing and then briefly said in logic. "It's probably a defect Vanellepe. Nothing more and nothing less." Furiously shaking her head as this wasn't the case as this was something more than a malfunction. Vanellepe said "No, Hiro, I believe that someone who caused that fire is trying to create more microbots, and trying to make it exactly how it designed to door." Hiro sighed and scratch his head before saying anything while letting his mind gave the chance to think it over, as this might be true what Vanellepe is saying as the two gained the information from the current deceased Queen of Death Sartana. She told them that her father wasn't the one that caused that sudden fire, but instead just found his opportunity to screw up the deal with Miguel and nothing more. "Hmmmm. Huh, maybe you're right about this Sis. Can you use your superpowers to transport us there?. I mean that is if you can."
"Well, I can but it will kill my energy since this might be a long distance. But either way I can make it happen Hiro." Baymax looked at Vanellepe and did a double check scan on the young and notice their was something different about her, as the DNA within her had computer like codes mix with normal human genetic code makeup and see that she had mutated into a mutant, in other words a Super. "Then take us there Sis." order Hiro. Vanellepe place her hand on the container and closed her eyes and concentrate her focus as her mind was tracing where the other Microbot pieces were, and founded the location of where they were as she open her eyes and said. "I found it. Baymax we're going to need your medical help after what I'm going to do." She informed the bot as his blinked with his head tilted as he came over to them, and place his hand on her head as Hiro quickly put on his shoes just before Vanellepe glitch them there in a flash, and found themselves already transported inside of a abandon building that must have been a former shipping factory, seeing boxes and crates everywhere and see an old dusty cobweb shipping machine that looked unsafe to operate due to years of rust.
Hiro turned his attention to his now huffing worn out sister who was clenching on her knees, and try her best to breath but had difficulties on doing so at moment. "Vanellepe." Hiro said coming up to her and guide her to a near by crate to sat her down, and holding her with worry and felt regret building up. "I..I.. I.. I'm fine H.. H.. H.. Hiro. I.. I.. I just need to catch...my...breath." Vanellepe said as Baymax popped out an a inhaler from his finger and place it in her mouth and went to pumping medicine to her desperate lungs. "Breathe in and breathe out. Try to control her breathing Vanellepe." Baymax told her as she did what was instructed and made the attempt to control her breathing. Feeling a little bit calm to see his only living sibling in a ok state, Hiro look down at his left hand and see the small circle container that had the microbot piece in it, and follow it to where it was trying to go as it was pointing straight and trying to get out of the container. He follow where it was pointing to as he looked straight up to see a clear plastic curtains, that was blocking something that sounded like a machine as it made him feel crazy excited as he made it to the curtains and stopped dead.
Hiro slowly lifted his hand to grab and pull the curtains back and see what shocked him, to the point he had no words to say at the very moment. What his eyes were showing him that made him lost for words was seeing a freshly built activated machine, that was producing microbot pieces and dropping them down to the huge barrel filled with a lot of microbots. Hiro took his eyes off from it and saw more barrels that was at least twenty in count as they were full of microbot pieces filled to the top. Feeling his heartbeat pounding and felt a cold chill down his spine and stepped back in great fear. "Vanellepe was right. I need to call the guys on..." "Hiro?." Hiro jumped back to turn around with fear but slowly calmed down when it was just Baymax who snuck up behind him without even making a sound to his surprise. "Baymax...you...startle...me. Please don't do that again dude." Hiro said just before he heard something moving loud like domino's, and turn right back around to see in shock.
The barrels that the microbots were in waswas starting to crawl out and moved to where every they were being summon, as Hiro looked at the one in his hand and see it was now clicking the glass hard and eventually open the lid to let it go, as the piece jumped right out and joined the others. Vanellepe who was far behind and still currently seating on the crate, saw what was going on as it wasn't hard to see as she, Hiro, and Baymax see that the microbots were going to the person who was controlling them and see the figure wearing all black, with a kabuki mask on its face as this figure had Hiro's headband in the mask and now had control of the microbots. "Oh, shit." Vanellepe said when the person motion the microbots to strike at Hiro and Baymax as a huge spike like spear was being thrown at them, but Hiro quickly pushed himself and Baymax out of the way before the spear could even hit them. "Ok, time to go!." Hiro said pushing Baymax out of harms way as the person was making the attempt to try and get them, as the microbots were moving the person towards them in great speed as Hiro can see this wasn't pleasant to see. "Run Hiro!." Vanellepe yelled but stopped to see something from a far distance, and see it was a huge two shipping crates that had a symbol on it and took the chance to take a picture of the thing with her phone, just before jumping off the crate and joined her brother on running away from their attacker. The person motion his left hand to make the microbots pick up a heavy shipping crate and threw it at them, making them jump at the right time while seeing the chained up double doors as Vanellepe can tell that they didn't have time to try unloving the chains, as the Kabuki character wasn't let any witnesses escape and wanted them dead. She gathered what's left of her energy and glitched herself, Hiro, and Baymax out of the place and transported right back to their room. The Kabuki guy was all out confused as the three just vanished from thin air and quickly tell that the girl was a Super after witnessing her superpowers in front and personal. He resumed back to what he was doing and continue working on his up coming plan that is a grudge against someone or something.
Nighttime at Team Future Tower...
"I have a picture of the crate that dude had in his procession." Vanellepe said showing the picture on her phone to Violet.
Violet grab Vanellepes phone and took a good look at the picture right before passing it to Penny, who was shock to find out that her boyfriend had found the killer that was responsible for Tadashi's death. "But who would steal your microbot headband?." asked Miguel after done looking at the picture and pass it to Wilbur. Wilbur on the other hand knew what that bird symbol belong to and said in seriousness. "Guys, I believe it was Mr. Krei. The CEO of Krei Tech." Hiro mind had clicked when remembering that night when Krei was interested in his tech and after rejecting his offer to work for him, and wanted to work for Uncle Cornelius he then said he will regret it. And now he was truly regretting it now, but not if he put a stop to whatever his plan was with his microbot Tech.
"Guys this has to be Krei. There's no doubt about that and he was the one that killed Tadashi." said Hiro getting up from the couch.
"Right." Vanellope nodded and said. "Our brothers death is not going to be in vain. Now, I ask the rest of you. Are we going to be Supers or be cowards?."
Violet nodded and got up and said. "You're right V. We've been calling ourselves Supers for years since we were five years old, and it's about time we should live up to it."
"For Tadashi." Miguel said already promised Tadashi and the other dead relatives that he will use his new powers, to save lives and keep his promise to the oath that he took let alone hold the mantle of the Skull Rider.
"I scanned his body and know we can find him." Everyone looked over to Baymax who just got back from the kitchen and made them a whole tray of cucumber sandwiches and a huge serving glass of lemon and cucumber water. "You can?." Everyone said while discussed to see the too healthy snacks that he had made for them, especially Penny who had to eat and drink something like that once before when she was still a Hollywood super star. "However, I can't track him down since my scanners can only track at a close distance." Baymax told them right before setting his healthy snacks down on the table. Hiro and Wilbur pondered and both said together in a science talk. "We can increase Baymax's health scanner by a thousand times better with the tech we have here!." "Yeah, that's it we can make it happen." said Wilbur as Baymax handed him his plate of cucumber sandwiches, to his discuss as he hated cucumbers. Violet and Penny faked eating theirs and gave it to both Dante and Bolt to eat, but the two dogs didn't like it either as that was not a surprise to them.
"Then it's settle!. Will find that guy and bring him to justice...Super style!." Vanellepe sakdsaid doing her hero pose as she glitched and transform her clothes, and got herself into her multi candy color striped Super suit that her hero name initial with three colorful slightly combine capital o65 as the first one was a red S, along with a purple R, and finally a black Q.
"Uh, V what is your Super name?." asked Violet who was very impressed on Vanellepes fast changed of clothes.
Vanellepe smirked proudly and said with her hands on her hips. "My name is Suger Rush Queen aka SRG for short. Not bad huh?."
"Yeah, not bad...not bad...not bad." That's all Violet could say as she knows that her hero name needed some work, but it would have to do for now. "Now, before we get this Kabuki character we're going to need do some serious training. Superhero training that is." Penny said. Hiro agreed to his girlfriend and it gave a good opportunity to to finally use the hologram obstacle course simulator. That, and it gives him and Wilbur time to actually finish building their jet and add some special features to it since they did, wanted their hero jet to be from what they described as Badass.
"Team Future?. It's time to be Supers." said Hiro who made everyone rally up and be strongly motivated.
"Right!. It's TF Time!." said Violet, Penny, Wilbur, and Miguel as they did their grouped fist pump.
Vanellepe joined in on the fist pump even though she never heard of their team quote before, until now and guessed that she'll learn their thing and work her way into becoming an official member of Team Future.
