A/N: THE LAST CHAPTER! Thank you guys so much for sticking around for this conclusion. And I did my best to make the last chapter go out with a bang.

Originally this fanfic was going to have 6 chapters, but I decided that 7 seemed more appropriate. Because it's symbolic, because once there was 6, but now there is 7.

Thank you everyone who read this story, you guys rock!

Please enjoy this double length final chapter! :D

Krei raised his glass of champagne in the air. "This beautiful new campus is a combination of a lifelong dream, but none of this could be possible without a few bumps in the road. Those setbacks make us stronger and set us on the path to a bright future."

The applause of the crowd quickly shifted to screams of panic and fear.

"Set back!?" A voice suddenly boomed from the screams.

Krei looked at the people running away in fear and mumbled, "What?"

He turned to see a masked man and microbots coming toward him. Krei attempted to escape, but he was ensnared by the bots. The microbots brought him closer to the masked man. The mask moved up from the man's face and it was a face of a ghost.

"Was my daughter a setback?" Callaghan hissed.

"Callaghan?" Despite the confusion Krei knew that his life was in danger. "Your daughter….that was an accident. I-"

"No!" Callaghan interrupted. "You knew it was unsafe. My daughter is gone because of your arrogance."

Callaghan raised his hand upwards toward the sky. Three pieces of a machine were being brought up to the sky. Krei recognized what it was all too well.

Krei panicked. "What are you doing!?"

Callaghan looked back to Krei with eyes colder than anything he had ever seen before. "You took everything from me when you sent Abigail into that machine. Now I'm taking everything from you."

The three pieces clicked into place and the portal was activated and it hungrily began to devour everything in its path.

Krei could only watch as everything began to crumble and be sucked into the portal. "No, no, no! You can't!"

"You're going to watch everything you've built disappear, then it's your turn." Callaghan growled. He didn't just want Krei dead. He wanted to destroy him.

"Professor Callaghan!"

The two turned around to see as a robot and six suited people arrive at the scene. Callaghan recognized all of them, except the one in the purple suit.

The purple suited one pulled off his helmet. It was Tadashi's younger brother, Hiro.

Hiro pulled off his helmet so they would be talking to each other's faces, and not a helmet or a mask.

"Let him go." Hiro's voice held authority. He pointed to the destruction around them. "Is this what Abigail would've wanted?"

Callaghan didn't want to hear it. "Abigail is gone!"

"This won't change anything. Trust me…" Hiro looked at Tadashi with the corner of his eye. "…I know."

Older Hiro didn't need to tell him that Tadashi would've died for no reason because of Callaghan, or how he would've reacted if it did happen. Hiro already knew in his heart what he would've done. And he knew that Older Hiro had lived through it and if meeting him meant anything it was that in the end they were all still human and they made mistakes. Hiro knew things that he wasn't meant to know and because of that when it came to Callaghan he understood. It wasn't sympathy he was expressing to Callaghan, it was empathy. Callaghan could see it and his expression softened.

Tadashi couldn't help but stare confusedly at Hiro. What did Hiro mean? How could he have known? Tadashi had no idea.

"Listen to the kid, Callaghan. Please, let me go. I'll give you anything you want." If Krei had kept quiet then Hiro may have gotten through to Callaghan.

Callaghan's sober expression morphed back into pure rage. "I want my daughter back!" Callaghan flicked the mask back down onto his face and without a spare moment he sent a wave of microbots to attack the team.

Without even thinking about it Tadashi instantly tackled Hiro out of harm's way to their left as the others dived to the right.

"Are you okay?" Tadashi asked.

Hiro pushed him off and threw his helmet back on. "I'm fine!" Hiro snapped as he ran toward Baymax. Once Hiro was on, Baymax zoomed off toward Callaghan. "Get the mask!" Hiro called out to the others.

Tadashi groaned under his breath. He knew Hiro was mad, he had every right to be, but this was serious. With all the destruction and danger that surrounded them he couldn't just let Hiro run in head first without thinking. He and team tried that already once and it didn't work.

Hiro attempted to grab the mask from Callaghan, but Callaghan easily dodged and used the microbots to grab Baymax. He threw the pair and whilst Baymax hit a wall, Hiro went flying through a glass window. Baymax tried to move, but the microbots grabbed hold of him again and threw him back toward the ground.

"Hiro! Baymax!"

As Callaghan turned his head back around he realised a massive piece of cement debris came flying toward him. He barely managed to move away in time. Tadashi's intention wasn't to try and kill him, it was merely to distract him. He couldn't see Hiro anywhere.

They all sprang into action. Fred leapt at him and tried to breathe fire at him, but Callaghan shielded himself.

Hiro felt the ground begin to crumble and be pulled upwards. The gravitational pull of the portal began to pull him and everything around him toward it. Hiro held on to the nearest thing he could find, and luckily for him a pipe was hanging from a rooted part of the building.

Gogo skated down and zoomed toward Callaghan. She dodged the microbots and attempted to throw her disk as she skated, but Callaghan predicted her moves and used the microbots to trip her up and he trapped her in a sphere of microbots.

Fred tried to fight back against the microbots. He leapt and breathed fire, but they grabbed a hold of him and slammed him against the wall. Fred tried to cling to wall, but as the microbots pulled him forward, Fred pulled off a piece of metal from the wall. The microbots constricted his arms and legs and he couldn't move.

Wasabi sliced at the microbots with his plasma blades, but the microbots rolled under the ground and they began push the ground beneath him. The next thing Wasabi knew he was being pushed against by both sides. Wasabi tried to push back and if he stopped then knew he would be crushed.

Honey Lemon was trying to stop the microbots as she threw her chemical spheres, but the microbots were being too viciously used that her chemicals began to become almost useless as they sliced through the colourful goo. Before they could strike her down, Honey Lemon quickly shielded herself by dropping two pink spheres with a pink chemical mix. It created a pink dome around her. The microbots continuously stabbed at her pink dome and began to pierce through it.

Tadashi was the last one standing and Callaghan knew that. Tadashi dodged and grabbed think pieces of cement for both a shield and weapon. He saw a stray wall lying on the ground and he did the first thing that he thought of. Tadashi ran and jumped out of the way of the microbots. He made it to the broken wall. He picked it up, he could feel the weight, but the suit's ability began to kick in and he felt as if he was getting instantly stronger. He swung around with the wall to gain momentum and threw it at Callaghan. He wasn't trying to kill him, Tadashi never had that thought cross his mind, he only wanted to distract him long enough to come up with a real plan.

Tadashi looked around and heard the continuous yells of his friends through the communication systems. They were all trapped. Baymax was still pinned down as well. There was nothing he could do. Suddenly he spotted a little purple figure in the midst of the destruction around the portal.

The pipe that Hiro held on to finally gave way and Hiro was lucky to yet again grab on to something that wasn't being pulled into the portal's suction. He grabbed on to a stray cable line and held on for dear life.

"Hiro!" Tadashi exclaimed to himself, but he was then brought back to reality as he realised that Callaghan just moved out of the way in time of the wall and it didn't break his concentration with the microbots like he had hoped. It only angered Callaghan more. The microbots flew toward Tadashi and they slammed into him. Tadashi quickly rolled to his left and right as the microbots attempted to finish him. Tadashi got back unto his feet and the microbots came at him with the same wall that he had thrown at Callaghan.

Tadashi's feet grinded against the ground as the force of the microbots pushing against the remains of the wall. The next thing Tadashi knew he was pushed against the side of the building. He was stuck. If he moved his arms then the wall could squish him like a bug and if he didn't do something soon than the suit would lose its durability. Tadashi's hand slipped for a moment and his head was thrown back to the wall. Luckily, Tadashi managed to regain a firm stance. He remained unharmed thanks to his helmet, but the helmet's faceguard had two large cracks.

All Hiro could hear was the yelling of his friends and that they were saying that there was no way out. Hiro looked down to see everyone trapped. Hiro could vaguely see Tadashi struggling against the microbots as he was threatened to be crushed by the broken wall. He had to think of something and fast! It was then that something caught his eyes.

Two microbots hit the front of his helmet. He noticed that along with the remains of the building, a few stray microbots were being sucked into the portal. He looked toward the portal and really paid attention to how the motionless microbots vanished within it.

"That's it!" The answer was right in front of him. "I know how to beat them!" With his free hand he activated his communicator. How to stop Callaghan was clear to him, but the team needed to be freed first. And there was only one thing that resonated with him in the situation, and that was Tadashi's advice when he first came up with the idea of the microbots. "Listen up. Use those big brains of yours and think your way around the problem. Look for a new angle!"

If the situation was different, Tadashi would've snickered at the repeat of his advice, but now wasn't the time for that. Hiro was right. They were all smart. They needed to all look for a new angle.

Wasabi knew that he couldn't go left or right, so he decided with option c. He went down. He slammed his plasma blades beneath him and got out. He let out a shout of victory.

Honey Lemon tapped a few buttons and created two orange chemical spheres. She waited until the microbots tried to pierce through again and the moment it did she slammed the two spheres together against them and it created an orange sticky substance. She was swiftly pulled out from her pink prison.

"I can't go any further!" Fred yelled. He continued to struggle, but it was then that he realised something. "Wait a second. It's a suit." Fred wanted to laugh as he pulled his arms out and looked out from the suits head. He saw a piece of metal lying in front of him. An idea immediately struck him, "Hello, sign. Care to go for a little spin?" Just like his mascot job, he spun them like there wasn't any tomorrow. He freed himself from the microbot restraints and triumphantly threw the scrap metal into a pile of microbots.

Gogo took out her gum and stuck it to the side of her helmet. She pulled down her faceguard as she retracted her stray disk back to her arm. She continuously skated in a perfect circle and she began to pick up momentum. The speed and friction made the microbots burning hot and she cut the microbot ball in half and she landed out of it. She was free.

Tadashi figured out that he could use the back wall and the wall the threatened to crush him to his advantage. He lifted a leg against the wall for extra support. It was time for his super-strength suit to truly shine. He stretched his arms as high as they could go and he pushed both forward, but as he pushed more forward he began to push it more on an angle. The suit was on its full power as Tadashi started to push the wall down. It was done with a swift blow and the microbots were crushed beneath the wall.

Tadashi tried to pull up the faceguard, but it was jammed. He grunted and pulled off his helmet. The cracks made it hard to see. Tadashi looked up and his eyes frantically scanned for his brother. He spotted him. He had to get to higher ground.

"Baymax!" Hiro tried to call for his robot companion. A piece of stray metal hit the side of Hiro's shoulder before going into the portal. It hurt but Hiro did his best to try and ignore the pain, but he definitely knew that it would leave a nasty bruise.

Baymax struggled against the bots when he used his cameras to notice Hiro trying to hold on to a loose cable.

"Hiro." As Baymax was seemingly devoured by the mass of microbots, but suddenly his rocket fist blew right past them and created a path for him to fly out and escape. Hiro saw and couldn't help but smile at how impressive that looked.

Hiro let go of the cable and was caught by Baymax and he landed in the place of his magnetic pads on Baymax's back.

All Callaghan could do was stare as Hiro flew away from the portal on Baymax.

Krei gleefully exclaimed, "I love that robot!"

Callaghan commanded the microbots and he pinned Krei to a wall and bent the metal around him so he couldn't move anywhere.

Hiro narrowed his eyes and looked around. He spotted the others making their way back up to higher ground, but one person was missing.

"Baymax, let's take a quick look down there."

Baymax flew down and Hiro frantically leapt off as he saw Tadashi's stray helmet lying on the ground. He picked up the helmet, it had two large cracks over the faceguard. Hiro looked around. He only took his eyes away from the scene for only two minutes and Tadashi had just vanished. Where was Tadashi? Hiro spotted the broken wall that Tadashi fought the microbots against. It was lying against the ground.

Before he could panic he only then realised that the microbots had thrown the broken pieces of a pillar toward him. He had no time to react, but the next thing he knew he was taken down to the side.

"Are you trying to get yourself killed!? You have to be more careful!"

Hiro opened his eyes to see Tadashi hovering over him. He more relieved that Tadashi wasn't under the wall than thankful that Tadashi had just saved him. Suddenly another large piece of from a pillar started flying toward Tadashi's blind spot and Hiro reacted instantly by leaping up and tackling Tadashi out of the way.

Hiro rolled his eyes as he got back up unto his feet, "Says the guy that almost crushed to death!" Hiro pointed to the wall on the ground. "And why did you take your helmet off!? I thought you were hurt or worse!"

Tadashi groaned and sat back up and pointed at the portal, "Says the kid that almost got sucked into that giant portal." Tadashi's chest heaved. "You have that big brain, but you obviously don't use it enough if you just run at Callaghan without even thinking."

Hiro humourlessly snickered, "Well that's pretty rich coming from you. Maybe it's a family trait!"

Before the two could continue arguing they were tackled out of the way of yet another piece of debris by Baymax. The pair was left stunned for a moment as Baymax warned,

"I ask that you both exercise more caution in this kind of zone of danger."

Hiro squirmed out of Baymax's arms. He was right. Hiro nodded, "Right." He climbed back onto Baymax, but before he could fly off Tadashi grabbed on to his arm.

"I'm an idiot."

Yes, Hiro was scared for a split second that Tadashi was gone, but it didn't mean that this was the right time for Tadashi to start this conversation.

Hiro tried to pull his arm back, but Tadashi only tightened his grip. "Tadashi, I said we would talk about it later." Hiro snapped.

"I'm one gigantic massive idiot!" Tadashi gently pulled Hiro back down off of Baymax. Tadashi let go of Hiro's arm and sighed soberly, "Look at us. We're already fighting again."

Hiro was left slightly shocked. Where was he going with this? Tadashi looked Hiro directly in his eyes as he began something that came out sounding like a rant.

"What I did was foolish and irrational. I'm the adult and I let myself be blinded. Yes, Callaghan was my professor, but you're my little brother. And I know there is nothing I can do to take back what I said, but you have to know that I never meant any of it. I am sorry because I was wrong and I am sorry because I lied to you. I don't want you to think for a second that I blame you for anything that has happened."

Hiro was silent as Tadashi continued his rant, "I only said that because I wanted to hurt you because in my own dumb way I thought you were trying to hurt me, but you were just trying to protect me and I'm so stupid because I didn't see that before and if I had just listened to you to begin with than none of this would be happening. If anyone is to blame for this, it's me."

No it's not. It's Callaghan's. But Hiro didn't say it out loud because he knew that Tadashi could read it from his eyes.

Tadashi put his hands on Hiro's shoulders and kneeled down to be at eye level with Hiro. "I don't expect you to forgive me, but please don't go running into this without a plan. Callaghan is so blinded by his revenge and he doesn't care about who he hurts or kills in the process. I can't lose you!"

Hiro was silent as he just stared at Tadashi. Fear. There was fear his brother's eyes and that's how he knew that Tadashi wasn't lying. Hiro could only recall a vague memory from when he had seen the same fear in Tadashi's eyes, but the memory was so faded he couldn't remember what had happened or why. Hiro slowly moved away from Tadashi's grip and climbed back on top Baymax.

Tadashi was crestfallen at the response and looked away. I should've known that he probably thinks I'm lying. I deserve that.

Hiro finally spoke. "You know, you are right about one thing…" Tadashi silently gasped as he looked back to see Hiro extending out his hand toward him. "You are a big idiot." Hiro gave him a lopsided grin. "And just so you know, I actually do have a plan."

Tadashi wanted to smile, but he instead grabbed unto Hiro's hand. Whilst they still had to talk out a few more things, at least they were at an understanding. The two flew back on Baymax to higher ground. Tadashi climbed off and the team made it up there a few moments after.

Hiro began to tell them immediately, "Ok, new plan. Forget the mask. Take out the bots, they'll get sucked up into the portal."

Wasabi grinned, "Now that sounds like a plan!" He activated his plasma blades so they were ready to spring into action.

"Honey. Fred. Can you give us some cover?" Everyone was shocked that Hiro was such a natural born leader, but no one objected to it.

Fred snorted, "Like you have to ask."

Honey Lemon smiled as she pressed a few buttons on her chemical purse and three blue orbs came out. "Let's do this, Freddy!" She tossed the three blue chemical orbs in the air as Fred shot out his fire toward it.

"Smokescreen!" Fred shouted out his 'move' as it created a blue smokescreen mist that surrounded the area.

"Ok, so we're dealing with the microbots?" Tadashi tried to clarify.

"You guys are. I'm the distraction." Hiro winked and smirked as Baymax shot up toward the sky before Tadashi could protest.

Callaghan was forced to go higher up away from the blue haze that surrounded him. Callaghan saw Baymax and Hiro flying toward him. He commanded the microbots to attack. Baymax kept flying forward as he spun and dodged the incoming microbots.

"Ready and…." They got closer to the portal. "Dive!" Hiro yelled. Baymax punched through them and the microbots were pulled into the portal. Hiro and Baymax went on to keep Callaghan occupied as the others began to destroy the microbots below them under the blue smokescreen.

Wasabi began to run around until he found himself somewhat floating for a moment with every step that eventually turned into every leap.

"Woah. Gravity is getting a little weird here guys." An idea then dawned itself in Wasabi's mind. "Wait, let's use this!" He jumped and kicked off a wall as he spun and slashed through the microbots. It was almost like an elegant dance as he sliced through them.

Gogo skated around and used her two front disks to carve her way up the microbot 'pillar'.

Fred got a hold of two pieces of scrap metal and set them on fire as he spun them around in different ways to destroy the microbots. Fred jumped around as he expertly spun the flamed metal signs. Fred sounded like he was having lots of fun.

Honey Lemon pressed multiple buttons on the chemical purse when four green orbs popped out. She made sure that the others were clear from where she was when she threw her green chemical orbs at the microbots in front of her. She threw it at the microbots for a clear substance to spread around them. The microbots began to sizzle and look as if an invisible flame was burning them. What Honey Lemon had used was an extremely high concentrate of hydrochloric acid that burned through the microbots in seconds. She would never admit it aloud to herself, but she really did enjoy seeing the destruction.

Tadashi got a hold of any debris that was lying around and crushed the microbots. He finally found a large metal support beam and used it as a giant baseball bat. Tadashi and Gogo teamed up for a combo attack. She leapt unto to it as she used it as a ramp to shoot toward a target pillar with more momentum. She carved through the pillars and Tadashi finished the job with a powerful swing. Some microbots went flying until they hit something by the force of the hit.

"Home run!" Tadashi smiled to himself.

Wasabi was boosted up by Fred's super jump as he started slashing the microbots from the top to the last on the ground. It was thanks to the lack of gravity that he landed back safety without hurting himself.

Honey Lemon joyfully bounced up by a chemical substance and quickly grabbed a chemical sphere from her purse before she planted it up in a microbot pillar. As she started to fall back down she threw her sphere and as soon as it hit her chemical purse, it exploded upon contact. It was the final blow and it was down with a beautiful pink bang.

"Now that's a chemical reaction!" Honey Lemon gleefully exclaimed as she landed back on the ground.

The group of friends couldn't help but exchange proud smiles at each other. Tadashi was the first and go to rescue Alistair Krei. He easily ripped off the metal that held him.

"Oh-Thank you. Thank you. Thank you." Krei was more grateful than he had been in his entire life. If it wasn't for the 'heroes' than he knew that he wouldn't be alive, it was all thanks to them.

Wasabi helped Krei stand as he got a good look at Tadashi's face.

"Hey, aren't you the brother of Hiro Hamada?"

Tadashi almost forgot that he wasn't wearing his helmet. Gogo stepped in.

"Mr Krei, I think we should get you out of here."

Suddenly they heard the slight tremor of part of the building starting to give way due to the supporting beams being sucked into the portal.

"Look out!"

Tadashi looked up to see moderately sized piece of cement falling from above him before everything turned black.

Baymax used his new karate skills and destroyed microbots in his path under Hiro's direction. Baymax attempted to fly towards Callaghan, but Callaghan's patience had reached its highest point. He finally caught Baymax with the microbots.

"This ends now!" Callaghan raised his hands and he waited for a rush of microbots to stop the robot and the boy, but nothing came. Callaghan tried again and still there was nothing.

Hiro smirked as he cheekily remarked, "Looks like you're out of microbots."

Callaghan looked down to see Hiro was right and it only then occurred to him that whilst Hiro and Baymax were fighting him, the others must've been destroying the microbots right under his nose.

"Baymax." It was all Hiro had to say for Baymax to understand. Baymax immediately broke free. Baymax flew toward Callaghan with his fist ready to hit him. Callaghan flinched and tried to shield himself, but what he saw next was that Baymax had stopped just a few inches from his face.

Hiro and Callaghan's eyes met. Hiro shook his head at Callaghan and he began to speak.

"While I would love to punch you in the face for stealing my microbots and trying to use them for your own insane revenge plan, I won't. If anything, I kinda get it, but trust me when I say that putting yourself on this path doesn't benefit anyone. It only causes more pain." Hiro spoke as if it was from experience, but honestly what he knew was only hypothetical, but ever since meeting his other self some things stood out clearly in front of him, even if it was blind to others.

Callaghan felt a twinge of pain in his stone heart. This boy, Tadashi Hamada's brother reminded him so much of the very person he lost, his beloved daughter, Abigail.

Hiro's frown turned into a lopsided grin, "But I will be taking that." Baymax took the mask from Callaghan's face and crushed it in his fist. The microbots dropped and became useless including the ones holding up the portal. Callaghan began to fall, but he was caught by Baymax and Hiro. The portal slammed into the ground.

Hiro vaguely saw the others as Baymax dropped Callaghan as he landed. Callaghan groaned and attempted to sit up. The team and Krei were all crowded around something, but little did Hiro know that the something was someone. Hiro leapt off Baymax and gained the team's attention.

"Hiro." Honey Lemon and the others were relieved that he was alright. Hiro narrowed his eyes long enough to realise what they were crowding around. It was Tadashi.

Hiro instantly ran forward and pushed Wasabi and Fred out of the way to see his brother lying on the ground with a visible bump on the top of his head.

"Tadashi!" No. No! This couldn't be happening! He was meant to be ok! Hiro was about to grab on to Tadashi's shoulders and violently shake him awake, but Gogo held him back. No! Tadashi couldn't be gone!

"Hiro, relax. He's alive." Gogo informed.

Baymax immediately came over and scanned him. "Scan completed. Diagnosis: mild head trauma due to a blunt instrument, and a highly probable concussion. I recommend that I give a proper treatment in a more stable environment."

"S-So he's going to be alright?"

Baymax nodded and Hiro sat down in relief.

"Nothing to worry about, little dude. Tadashi just hit on the head." Fred patted Hiro on the shoulder.

Hiro sighed. Tadashi should've kept his helmet on. Baymax turned back around to draw attention toward the portal that was still on.

"It's still on?" Hiro stared wide eyed at the portal. He stood back up and moved slightly forward before he turned to Krei. "We have to shut it down."

Krei shook his head. "We can't! The containment field is failing. The portal's gonna tear itself apart."

"We need to get out of here now!" Hiro urged, but he noticed that Baymax wasn't moving from his spot. "Baymax!"

"My sensors are detecting signs of life."

Hiro gasped, "What?"

"Coming from in there." Baymax pointed toward the portal. "The life signs are female. She appears to be in hyper sleep."

Hiro put the pieces together. "Callaghan's daughter, she's still alive!"

Callaghan immediately looked toward the portal. "Abigail." He mumbled.

Hiro turned back to see Wasabi and Fred helping to hold Tadashi up. Suddenly he remembered the night of the showcase. He remembered what Tadashi said moments before he prepared to run into the burning building. Hiro never understood what must've been going through Tadashi's head until that moment. Hiro climbed unto Baymax. "Let's go get her."

Krei's eyes widened at the insane notion. "The portal is destabilizing, you'll never make it!"

Hiro looked back to Krei and the team, but more importantly, he looked at Tadashi.

"She's alive in there. Someone has to help."

Hiro clicked himself into place. "What do you say, buddy?"

Baymax turned his head toward Hiro, "Flying makes me a better healthcare companion."

Hiro nodded and smiled and with that the two took off up while doing a loop then the two vanished into the portal.

Only seconds after Hiro and Baymax vanished into the portal, they all suddenly heard Tadashi groan as he began to stir back into consciousness. The others simultaneously thought the same thing in that moment.

Oh-no

Hiro felt like he should've known before, but the dimensional transporter that his other self had modified was the same as the one he had just flown into. He saw how colourful the dimension was around him, but it was more distorted than the one he had previously been in, but regardless it was just as amazing.

Baymax continued to fly throw the dimension.

"Careful, there's Krei Tech debris everywhere." Hiro stated. Baymax flew deeper and more debris became present.

Baymax swerved and spun to dodge the debris. Hiro saw a massive piece of glass debris in front of him. "Look out!" Hiro jumped off of Baymax and ran up through the debris. A moment longer and both he and Baymax could've gotten hurt. Hiro leapt through the nearest hole and Baymax immediately caught Hiro in his arms. Hiro sighed in relief and caught his breath.

"I have located the patient."

Hiro looked up to see a lone pod in the distance.

"Hurry!" Hiro clicked back into place as Baymax turned on his full thrusters and zoomed off closer to the pod. Baymax instantly stopped as they made it to the pod. Hiro rubbed the layer of frost that covered the pod. He saw a woman inside. Hiro could clearly see that she was breathing. She was alive.

"Tadashi, are you feeling alright?" Wasabi asked. Tadashi was now completely awake.

"Yeah." Truthfully, his head hurt a lot. He groaned as Wasabi helped him to stand. "What happened?"

"You got hit on the head by that." Fred pointed toward the stray piece of debris. Tadashi blinked a couple of times as he gave Wasabi a small hand signal to let him stand on his own. He felt the lump on his head, "I should've kept the helmet on." Tadashi joked, but suddenly he saw Callaghan whose eyes were glued to the portal.

"Callaghan? What's going on? Why is the portal still active?"

Before anyone could answer, he looked around and noticed who was missing.

"Where's Hiro?"

They exchanged looks before it was silently decided that Honey Lemon would do the explaining of how Baymax detected that Callaghan's daughter was alive and how Hiro went in to save her. And a few moments later they got the reaction they were expecting.

"YOU LET HIM, WHAT!?"

After shouting more incoherent phrases, Tadashi tried getting into the portal. The team leapt at Tadashi as they attempted to restrain him. Tadashi kicked at air.

"No! Let me go!" Tadashi tried to fight harder against them. "I can't lose him!"

Having a super strength suit did not help the situation, especially during his distress he accidently threw Fred in the process of trying to break free from the others. He stopped upon hearing Fred fly in the air whilst yelling and his landing.

"Fred, I am so sorry!" He shouted out to him.

"I'm ok!" Fred called back. "Nothing can keep the Fredzilla down!" Fred laughed it off as he made his way back. The team could tell from his smile that Fred enjoyed being thrown only because it was by Tadashi's super strength and he got to witness it up close.

Suddenly Tadashi felt a sharp sting across his cheek. Gogo had slapped him.

Gogo then shook him by his shoulders, "Tadashi Hamada, you get a hold of yourself right now or so help me I will knock you out again myself!"

Tadashi held his cheek. "You want me to calm down? My little brother just went into a portal that is going to destroy itself any second now. AND YOU WANT ME TO CALM DOWN!?"

Gogo's expression remained stoic and she gently put a hand on his shoulder. "Hiro will come out of there, and he will come out alive and fully intact. We trust him to be able to do this, if we didn't we wouldn't have let him go."

Tadashi did trust Hiro, but the possibility of losing Hiro was growing higher and higher. Tadashi didn't know how much more he could take.

"Besides, he didn't go in there alone. He has Baymax." Honey Lemon added optimistically.

Tadashi wanted to feel some degree of relief, but he still felt none. He ran his hands through his hair as he grunted with frustration. All he could do was wait and hope that Hiro would come out. He had never felt more useless. He looked to Callaghan. He caused this.

Tadashi began to walk toward him. Honey Lemon asked, "Where are you going?"

"I'm going to have a word with my professor."

The team and Krei left Tadashi to go over to talk to Callaghan alone, but the team watched from a distance. Callaghan looked toward Tadashi then his eyes returned to the portal.

"Mr Hamada." He greeted. It was as if it were normal like nothing had changed. Tadashi crouched down beside him. It was as if the tension around them was getting stronger by the moment. So much had happened.

"You did all this just to find out she's alive." Tadashi stated it as a fact.

Callaghan flinched and he rushed to try and justify himself, "None of this would've happened if Krei had just listened to me. He never got punished for sacrificing my daughter to his failed experiment. Alistair Krei deserved to be punished for his mistake."

"I could say the same about you." Tadashi's tone of voice became somewhat dark, which surprised Callaghan. He turned his head to his former student.

"I'm going to be blunt with you, professor." Tadashi breathed out deeply. "When Hiro gets your daughter out, my question for you is, can you live with her knowing of what you've done? What you've become?"

Callaghan stared in slight fear, but mostly shock. He looked around the devastation he had caused. Callaghan then reluctantly shook his head. "You say it like you're completely sure that they'll come out. I'm sorry to say that I don't share the blind faith you have, Mr Hamada." Callaghan didn't want to get his hopes up just for them to be shot down, not after everything.

Tadashi tensed at the words. His hand clenched in the dirt beneath him. He took a deep breath to calm himself.

"It's better to have hope than to be consumed by fear because that only leads to anger and hate."

Callaghan glared toward the portal. "So you're saying that if our places had been swapped and Krei was to blame for your brother's apparent death that you would be alright with that?"

Tadashi shook his head. "No, but I would never do what you have done in the name of revenge."

Callaghan sighed. "I wouldn't expect you to understand. You haven't been what I've been through. Abigail was all I had left. After her mother died it was just me and her. The portal took her away from me and all because Krei wasn't ready to accept that the transporter wasn't ready for human trials. It was because of Krei's arrogance."

Tadashi finally snapped back. Callaghan wanted to talk about arrogance? "And yet, now I could lose my brother due to yours."

Callaghan stared back at Tadashi in silence. Callaghan could see the anger in Tadashi's eyes, maybe they weren't so different after all, even if Tadashi didn't realise it yet.

Tadashi stood back up and the two silently ended the conversation. Coincidentally enough the portal's power became more intense. It was beginning to completely tear itself apart. Tadashi and Callaghan raised their arms as shields against the raging wind that began to whirl around them.

Fred grabbed Callaghan while Wasabi grabbed onto Tadashi.

"We need to get behind cover now!" Gogo yelled.

Tadashi and Callaghan had to be pulled as they were reluctantly were pulled away behind a rock. Tadashi began to mentally pray to any gods that existed for Hiro to come out safe.

"C'mon, let's get her home." Hiro climbed onto the pod. "I'll guide you out of here. Let's go!"

Baymax pushed the pod as he turned his thrusters back on. Hiro knew he had to concentrate to get them out. There was Krei Tech debris as far as he could see. Hiro barked all sorts of twists and turns and they avoided the debris.

"Ok, level off." Hiro then saw a piece of debris with a large hole. Hiro instantly knew that they could easily go through. "Easy."

And with that they were out of the field of debris. Hiro cheered as he saw the clear path back out of the portal. The sight flicked a switch in Hiro's mind. It resonated with the memory of what Older Hiro last said to him before they parted ways.

"Just remember when you see that everything is clear, sometimes it's good to duck down. You never know what could come flying at you."

Hiro didn't understand it, but maybe this is what his other self was talking about. Maybe…

The wind whirled around them as the portal finally tore itself apart. Gogo kept a grounding hand on his shoulder to keep him from running in. Tadashi shut his eyes from the wind and mentally chanted to himself.

Please come out. Please come out. Please come out.

Tadashi almost felt his heart stop as he heard something like a canon shoot as the portal destroyed itself.

The wind around them died as soon as the second sound was heard. Tadashi immediately leapt over the rock and frantically looked around to see nothing. Hiro was nowhere to be seen.

"No." Tadashi breathed out and fell down to his knees. His head hung low toward the ground. He silently cursed at himself. It was his duty as a big brother to keep Hiro out of trouble. After the two lost their parents, Tadashi had said to himself that no matter what that he would protect Hiro and support him in any way that he could. But he couldn't even keep his brother safe. He failed him. He failed his parents.

Tadashi squeezed his eyes shut. He wanted to open his eyes back up to find himself back in his room the day of the showcase. He wanted it all to be just a really bad nightmare. There was so many things that he wished that he could change. He never would've begun to distant himself and he would've trusted his brother's word, but now it was all too late because Hiro was gone.

The others sombrely bowed their heads. Hiro was Tadashi's little brother, but he was also their friend. And to see Tadashi beginning to fall apart and knowing that there was nothing they could do about it didn't help.

Suddenly it was like the sun appeared in an age of darkness. They heard a joyful shout from a familiar voice.

"Yes! We made it! Nice flying!"

When Tadashi heard the sound it gave him more relief and happiness then words could ever explain or describe. Tadashi's head snapped back up and he searched for the source of the voice. He ran to his far left and behind a small mountain of debris he quickly spotted where the shout had come from. It was his baby brother.

"Hiro!"

Gogo was meant to have the insane speeds due to her electromagnetic disk wheels, but Tadashi definitely would've gave her a run for her money in that moment.

Hiro smiled up at Baymax. "That was awesome!"

Older Hiro's vague advice had been useful after all. If Hiro didn't tell Baymax to dive down then they would've been hit by the fast travelling piece of Krei Tech debris. Luck or not, they got out in time and they got out together. They were alright.

"He made it. Yeah!" Fred exclaimed. Hiro turned to see Fred leaping with joy as the team ran toward him with Tadashi already in the lead.

Hiro smiled upon seeing Tadashi conscious. He looked like he was fine and Hiro had never seen Tadashi run so fast. Hiro slid down from on top of the pod.

Tadashi didn't take a spare moment to try and slow down. He tried to stop immediately, but he skidded and almost slipped in the process, but Tadashi didn't care as he kneeled down to Hiro's eye level as he began looking over Hiro.

"Are you ok?"

In any other situation Hiro would've just rolled his eyes at Tadashi mother henning him, but he instead nodded with a smile.

"Are you hurt?"

Hiro shook his head.

"Then what were you thinking!?"

Hiro sighed as he prepared for a long lecture, but the next thing he knew his face was pressed into Tadashi's chest.

"You knucklehead."

Tadashi held back tears that threatened to spill over, he was just so relieved and beyond happy. Tadashi held him tight as if he expected Hiro to slip away. The embrace felt all too identical to the night of the showcase, but the difference this time was that Hiro hugged him back.

"I thought I lost you." Tadashi's voice cracked. Hiro flinched at the sound of broken crack in his voice. If Hiro needed any confirmation that Tadashi truly cared for him, then that was it. The five worded confession was all he needed to hear.

"Well you didn't." Hiro replied, wrapping his arms tigher around his brother.

The others made it over and smiled at the affectionate display in front of them. Honey Lemon had to put a hand on Fred's shoulder so he didn't try to join in. It had to be a good minute before Hiro decided to say anything.

Hiro began squirming. "Tadashi, can you let me go now?"

Tadashi gave a watery chuckle, "No, I'm not ever letting you go again."

"That's nice, bro. But you're kinda crushing me." Hiro tried to get another breath of air. "You have a super strength suit, remember?" Hiro squeaked.

Tadashi reluctantly, but quickly let go. "Right. Sorry."

Hiro caught his breath before he smiled and looked back through the glass of the pod. The woman inside, Abigail, was still breathing. It was going to be all ok.

The others had no doubt that the real authorities would arrive soon. Callaghan stood by the pod and he placed his hand over the glass. Abigail was alive. They let Callaghan have his moment because they knew that he probably wouldn't get a chance like that again anytime soon. They could tell from his expression that regret began to seep into his soul.

"You can't say a word about who we are." Tadashi told Krei.

"Why? You all saved me and even Abigail!" Krei stated. "You deserved to be recognized for what you did here today."

Tadashi shook his head. "That's not why we did it." If Tadashi had to think back to how it all started then it would've reminded him what a mess it all became.

The others stepped in and eventually persuaded Krei after Fred had his whole speech on superhero secret identities. As Fred kept on with his rant, Hiro noticed as Tadashi walked over to Callaghan.

Callaghan still had his hand against the glass that kept the barrier between him and his daughter.

"What have I done?" Callaghan mumbled in defeat.

Tadashi kept a neutral expression. "Enjoy this while it lasts. I just hope you're ready to face the consequences of your actions."

Callaghan grimaced. He knew that Tadashi was right.

The team flew off with Baymax and within minutes many policemen and paramedics came rushing toward to the scene. They watched from a skyscraper from afar.

Abigail was extracted from the pod and rushed away from the paramedics while Callaghan was pushed into a police car. They turned away once both Abigail and her father were whisked away in two different directions.

Wasabi was the first to ask the all-important question. "Now what do we do?"

Hiro shrugged and remarked, "Well for now I would say that's: mission accomplished."

The whole ordeal had been exhilarating yet tiring at the same time. They stayed and somewhat celebrated at Fred's until the adrenaline finally faded as their exhaustion began to set. It was also getting late. They all returned home, but not as the same people they once were.

When the two brothers returned home, Baymax was on his left at his charging dock while the two brothers sat on Hiro's bed together in their pyjamas just talked. Tadashi decided to put everything out in the open and he discussed what happened at the island.

Hiro stayed silent the whole time. He didn't make any comments. Tadashi didn't know whether or not he should be worried about it. However, that didn't stop Tadashi as he continued on to talk about what happened before and after he had been knocked out by the stray piece of falling debris. Tadashi spoke about when he had just found out that Hiro was in the portal.

It was only then that Hiro finally said something.

"Wait a second, you threw Fred?" After a whole time of silence and that's what Hiro finally said?

Tadashi nervously laughed as he thought that maybe he shouldn't have mentioned that. "It was an accident."

Hiro snorted and he began laughing.

Tadashi pouted and he tried to defend himself, "I was worried about you."

Hiro laughed harder as he teased, "So you decided to throw Fred?"

Tadashi suddenly began smirking as he grabbed and hung Hiro's legs over his shoulders. It was as if Hiro was a rag doll. "Super strength suit or not, I'm still stronger than you. You might want to remember that next time you make fun of your big brother." Tadashi playfully stated.

"Put me down!"

Tadashi smugly shook his head as he swung Hiro around on his shoulders. "Nope."

After a few moments, Tadashi flopped Hiro back unto the bed. Hiro laughed and shook his head.

Tadashi sat back on the bed and the amusement on his face shifted to a serious expression.

"I'm sorry."

Hiro knew exactly what Tadashi was talking about. "Tadashi, after everything that's happened today, do you really think I would've been able to stay mad?"

Tadashi stared. Yes.

Hiro sighed again, "I know what you did wasn't ok. That fight was big, but-"

"No, it's not just about the fight." Tadashi interrupted. "Ever since I thought Callaghan died I haven't been like myself. I've been distant and I didn't trust you when I should have."

Hiro frowned. It was as if Tadashi was begging him to be mad, but Hiro couldn't bring himself to do it.

"I know, but I just don't care, not anymore at least."

Tadashi blinked at Hiro, "So you're not mad?"

"I'm not mad." Hiro just couldn't do it. And it wasn't just because of what his other self had told him, but rather what he warned. Tadashi may have not perished in the fire, but he thought he had lost him twice in one day and he would rather not experience it for real. What Tadashi said and did was wrong, but he was sorry and that much was proved to him many times during that day. And for Hiro that was enough to forgive him.

Tadashi smiled for a brief moment before he changed the subject, "Enough about what happened to me, what happened with you?"

Hiro immediately went to talk about what the portal looked like from within and what happened after he and Baymax found Abigail. Hiro spoke with a smile.

"Then we made it out, luckily just in time too."

"Sounds incredible, but how did you and Baymax manage to dodge everything? The debris would've gotten close."

The debris did get close, but Hiro was warned about it. Hiro didn't know whether or not to tell Tadashi about Older Hiro. Was it something he really wanted Tadashi to know?

"Hiro?"

Hiro snapped out of his thoughts. "Huh?"

"You spaced out for a sec, are you feeling ok?"

Hiro looked at Tadashi's concerned expression. If he was going to tell him, now was the opportunity. But he made his decision. No.

"I should be asking you the same question, you're the one with the concussion." Hiro chose not to tell him. It was his secret burden. Tadashi didn't need to know that he wasn't meant to be alive. He was alive and that's all Hiro really cared about.

Tadashi rolled his eyes, "Baymax already told me when we were back at Fred's that I would be fine and rest was recommended." Tadashi sarcastically added, "I obviously didn't program him to know a thing or two about this stuff."

Hiro rolled his eyes and huffed out a breath of laughter he then against his choice he yawned.

"We ought to get some rest."

Hiro didn't object as he slowly nodded as he crawled under his covers. Tadashi turned off the light.

"Move over." Tadashi nudged at Hiro.

Hiro rolled his eyes with a groan, but he made some room as Tadashi squeezed himself in. It wasn't that they did it often, Hiro definitely would not allow that with his teenaged pride. Tadashi threw his arm over Hiro.

"I'm glad you're ok, bonehead."

Hiro discretely nuzzled closer to Tadashi. "I'm glad I'm ok too."

Tadashi softly kicked Hiro and smiled as he shut his eyes. "Goodnight, Hiro."

"Goodnight….nerd."

Tadashi smiled, but didn't say anything back. That must've been proof alone that Tadashi was just happy to have Hiro at home and safe.

If anything the whole final battle against Callaghan had showed the both of them what it would've been like to lose each other and they didn't like it. Neither of them could bear to lose the other. It was a fact. And Hiro's other self had prevented Hiro from truly experiencing it.

As Hiro drifted off into sleep all he could hear was Tadashi's light breathing. Hiro's final thoughts were of Older Hiro.

Thank you.

One week later…..

"Tadashi. Hiro. You're going to be late!"

"We're coming!" Hiro called back to Aunt Cass and he skipped down the steps. "Tadashi c'mon!"

Hiro pulled over his new SFIT hoodie and threw on his backpack with Baymax's portable charger inside (it was Hiro's idea) when he overheard the television.

"A massive clean-up continues today at the headquarters of Krei Tech Industries. Reports are still flooding in about a group of unidentified individuals who prevented what could've been a major catastrophe. The whole city of San Fransokyo is asking, who are these heroes and where are they now?"

Hiro playfully grinned at the broadcast. Tadashi came down from their room and peeked over at the television.

"That has to be the twentieth broadcast about Krei Tech and the 'unidentified individuals' this week." Tadashi placed his beloved 'San Fransokyo Ninjas' hat on his head.

"Well what can I say big brother, we're famous without being famous." Hiro cheekily remarked.

Tadashi smiled and ruffled Hiro's hair. "C'mon, the others would be waiting."

Hiro rolled his eyes with a smile and he followed his brother out. It was hard to believe that only a week ago was the event that changed everything for them. They greeted the others down at the café.

Aunt Cass said goodbye to her nephews as they walked off with the others. Fred went on about new features that his supersuit could have added on, all the ideas being close to undoable or unthinkable. Hiro was actually willing to accept the challenge. On the walk to SFIT, Fred and Hiro were in deep conversation about it.

As Honey Lemon and Wasabi were having a conversation of their own, Gogo noticed trailing along at the back of the group with a frown.

Gogo gently nudged Tadashi, "What's on your mind, genius?"

Tadashi blinked out of his thoughts he silently sighed. "Don't you think they should calm down with the hero talk? We stopped Callaghan. We finished what we set out to do, so shouldn't that be the end of it?"

Was Tadashi really passing up the opportunity to help people? No. Gogo knew what he was really saying behind those words.

Gogo blew a bubble of gum and popped it. "You're worried about Hiro." It was a statement.

Tadashi frowned, "Is it that obvious?"

Gogo nodded. Wasabi and Honey Lemon overheard the conversation. It was lucky for them that Fred and Hiro seemed to be in their own world and chattered away as their pace quickened and the other's slowed down.

"We didn't set out to become heroes, but now look at where we are." They all looked to Honey Lemon.

Wasabi nodded and added, "She was a point and besides if you're really worried just remember that there's all of us and Baymax that'll also keep an eye out for the little man as well as you."

Honey Lemon smiled. "We're in this together and I think that we wouldn't be able to convince Fred to abandon his new hero persona if we tried."

Tadashi silently smiled, but he still had his concerns. Even if they didn't show it the team had made up their minds about continuing the super hero gig a long time ago, and honestly so did Tadashi.

"If Hiro wants to stay being a super hero then it's still up to me to keep him out of trouble." That was Tadashi's way of informing them of his decision. Tadashi thought that he had lost Hiro once and he wasn't planning on that happening again. It was as clearer than any crystal that Tadashi treasured Hiro above anything or anyone. Hiro was his only brother and he was all Tadashi really had left from his parents. Tadashi was determined to protect him, whether he was still a hero or not.

Hiro was lounging around in Tadashi's office as he fiddled around with broken bot, which Hiro had insisted that he was fixing it just for fun and that it wasn't for a bot fight.

Tadashi was starting his written essay about the history of robotics. It wasn't due until another few weeks, but Tadashi wanted to get a head start. The pair were talking were having a conversation from a far about seemingly random things.

As Hiro was absentmindedly fixing the bot he accidently turned it on, and it almost electrocuted him, but he quickly turned it back off and immediately dropped the bot.

"Are you ok?" Tadashi turned away from the computer screen.

Hiro nodded, "Yeah, I'm fine." Hiro stood up and gave a bit of stretch. "Well I've been cooped up for too long. I'm going to go for a walk."

Tadashi nodded, "Remember that we're going soon to that sushi restaurant that Wasabi likes for lunch so don't get too caught up in anything."

Hiro shrugged it off, "Yeah, yeah."

"Wait!"

Hiro turned back toward Tadashi, "What?"

"Take Baymax with you. He could probably use the fresh air too."

Baymax was a robot so there wasn't much logic behind the statement. In all honesty, Tadashi just didn't want Hiro wandering off alone even if it was still on the university grounds. It had been a week since the events at Krei Tech, but Tadashi was still in 'extremely overprotective mode'. Hiro noticed despite Tadashi trying to be discrete about it, and whilst it annoyed him, Hiro just went along with it knowing that with time it would die back down to his regular protective attitude.

Hiro yelled out, "Ow."

Baymax inflated from his charging dock across the room.

Tadashi half expected Baymax to run through his whole beginning script, but he instead said, "Hiro, what seems to be the trouble? Have you been injured?"

Hiro didn't think much of it, "No, I'm fine. We're going for a walk, c'mon."

Tadashi stared as the two left the room. He had uniquely created Baymax, but his AI was obviously advancing on its own. His programing made sure that he always had the same start up script and Tadashi knew that Hiro didn't change the script start up despite all the 'upgrades'.

It was like Baymax was becoming a person of his own, and it was more than Tadashi hoped for. It was incredible.

Tadashi glanced to out his large window. He saw how Hiro comfortably and playfully walked around outside with Baymax. A smile was brought to Tadashi's face. To have his own creation showing signs of having a self-developing AI and for his brother to help that happen seemed like two wins in one day.

Suddenly he heard and felt something like a brief gust of wind behind him. When Tadashi turned he saw some of his loose papers landing on the ground after dancing around the air. Tadashi blinked. Where had the wind come from?

Tadashi suspiciously looked around. His head cocked to the side as he saw a USB flashdrive on his desk. He had never seen it before and it most definitely wasn't on his desk before that. Tadashi curiously picked up the USB and stared at it.

He plugged it into his computer and a single video file was on it and it was labelled, 'Goodbye'.

Tadashi stared at the file, but after hovering the cursor over the file he finally clicked on the file.

The video started to play and Tadashi gasped at what he saw. It was…Hiro? But it couldn't be. The one in the video looked visibly older.

"Hey Tadashi, it's me, Hiro." The older looking Hiro smiled, "I know your probably confused and you're wondering why I look older." The older Hiro sighed. "Well, it's a bit complicated, but I'm a Hiro from a different reality. I know it's crazy, but hear me out."

Tadashi sat in his chair in silent shock as the Hiro in the video went on to explain how he modified a dimensional transporter to see that there were different dimensions. He explained how it was all possible.

"And now comes to the part of why I've sent this message." Older Hiro took a deep breath. "Well, if I know me then I know that Hiro probably didn't want to tell you this, but he shouldn't have to carry this on his own. And I feel that for you to really understand is to tell you everything."

Older Hiro muttered to himself, but it was loud enough to be caught on camera. "Please don't get mad other me." Older Hiro then looked back into the camera as he continued, "The reason why Hiro saw things from the future was because I was transmitting my memories to him."

Older Hiro went on to explain how once again and that he had destroyed it. He also explained how the timelines were identical and about the parallel universes.

"So don't worry, Hiro was never in any real harm because of it. And when I mean my memories, the first one I ever showed him was…was…"

Older Hiro's eyes began to get a bit glossed. He swallowed a lump in his throat and continued, "In my reality when the showcase building was on fire you ran in and never came back out. It exploded when you were still inside."

Tadashi didn't know how to react. He just continued to watch.

Older Hiro sniffed and held back his tears. "I shared that memory with Hiro so he could stop you, and he did." Older Hiro rubbed the water away from his eyes as he forced a smile. "I'm sorry, I guess talking about it wasn't as easy as I thought it was going to be." He forced a huff of laughter.

It broke Tadashi's heart.

Older Hiro took a deep breath. "I explained everything and why to Hiro. We met after the two of you had that fight."

A twinge of guilt and regret pierced at Tadashi's heart as he recalled the fight. Never again, Tadashi had sworn that to himself.

"You don't need to worry about any of this, but you have to know that there are some things that shouldn't be changed, and that's the Big Hero 6."

Tadashi cocked his head to the side.

Older Hiro continued, "I know that you're probably wondering what that is and it's the team. I know you, and I'm guessing that you would have your doubts. But there is always going to be risks with anything that you do, and it's whether or not if we're brave enough to take those risks. That's what defines who we are. The only reason I kept showing Hiro more visions was to ensure that the team would be created again in your dimension."

Older Hiro frowned. "But if I am being entirely honest, why I wanted to send you this message has nothing to do with that. While it is important, I have more selfish reasons."

Older Hiro sighed and stared directly into the camera, as if to stare into Tadashi's eyes. "I know that you're not my Tadashi, but you are still Tadashi." Older Hiro's eyes began to get glossy once more. "I want you to know that for a long time after you died I didn't know if I could go on. I didn't want to miss you anymore because every day just got worse and worse. And losing you has never stopped hurting. I don't think it ever will."

Tadashi's eyes began brimming with tears as he watched the video. It broke his heart to see the older Hiro speak with such raw pain like that, even if it wasn't technically 'his' Hiro.

Older Hiro let his tears fall as he smiled through the pain, but this time it wasn't forced, "But now, I'm ok. I've learned to live with it. A day doesn't go by where I don't miss you, but I'm really ok now. I'm happy."

Older Hiro wiped the tear stains from his face, but the effort was put to waste as more tears fell from his eyes. Older Hiro smiled through the tears once more as his crying began to slow down. "My only wish is that you use this second chance to do whatever makes you happy…..I just want you to be happy and to live the long life you deserved."

Older Hiro let more tears fall. "This is my final goodbye to you that I never got to say to my Tadashi, so if you're willing I'd like you to hear it."

Older Hiro was silent for a moment as if to get a response. Older Hiro took a deep breath and sighed.

"I'll see you again, one day. But I promise it won't be until I'm old and gray. And I wish I said this one last time, but I guess that it's better late than never…" Older Hiro sniffled once more as he smiled.

"I love you, big brother."

The video ended with Older Hiro's watery smile paused on the screen.

Tadashi let the tears fall and they didn't stop. He had only been on the brink of tears, but when Older Hiro started to speak about losing him, Tadashi couldn't take it. His eyes were gushing out with hot tears. He hadn't cried like that in years. He sat alone and cried for a long time.

Tadashi suddenly heard Hiro coming down the hall and he immediately wiped away his tears. He didn't want Hiro to see him like this.

"Tadashi, you were the one that told me not to be too long yet you're the one who's going to make us lat-…." Hiro walked into the lab and stared at Tadashi. Tadashi's eyes looked puffy and red.

Tadashi blocked Hiro's view of the computer screen and nonchalantly smiled, "Hey, Hiro. Did you have a nice walk?"

Hiro looked Tadashi up and down, something was definitely wrong.

"Are you feeling ok?"

"Me? I'm fine."

Hiro blinked. He wasn't falling for it. Before Hiro could further question him, Tadashi had bridged the gap between them and enveloped Hiro in a tight hug. Hiro froze in confusion. Tadashi wasn't showing any signs of letting go.

Baymax made his way into the room. "There, there." Baymax had joined the hug. Tadashi gave a huff off laughter and he then pulled away.

Hiro looked up to his big brother with confusion. "What was that for?"

Tadashi shrugged. "Can't I hug my little brother?"

Hiro blinked again. Tadashi was acting strange.

Tadashi turned his head back to the computer screen and gasped to see that the screen was now blank and the USB had disappeared. He frowned, but then thought that maybe it was the best thing for it to vanish. He didn't really want Hiro seeing that video file.

Hiro followed Tadashi's gaze and looked toward the blank screen. "Are you looking for something?"

Tadashi blinked a few times before he shook his head. "No…It's just-"

They heard Fred yell from down the hall. "Are you guys coming or what?"

"Coming!" Hiro called back.

Tadashi nudged at Hiro's shoulder, "C'mon. We're gonna be late."

The two began to walk out and Baymax followed after them.

Hiro humourlessly rolled his eyes, "Are you sure that you're ok?...Oh-no, I'm turning into you." Hiro knew Tadashi looked like he wasn't going to budge, so he decided that he would question him about it later.

Tadashi sarcastically snickered, "I do not sound like that."

"You're right, you sound more like this.." Hiro put on a mockingly fake deep voice, "Hello my name is Tadashi, I'm a giant nerd. Are you ok, Hiro? Are you alright, Hiro? Bot fighting is illegal, Hiro!"

Tadashi wrapped his arm around Hiro's head and he grinded his knuckles against Hiro's head.

"Well it is illegal, knucklehead." Tadashi let go of Hiro and the two laughed. "And besides, a superhero shouldn't go breaking the law."

Hiro held up his hands in surrender, "Hey, I haven't been in a bot fight since we got arrested." Hiro dragged along behind.

Tadashi rolled his eyes. "We're going to be late, c'mon Hiro."

"Hey, think of it this way, if we're late we can fly on Baymax and beat them there anyway."

Tadashi grinned, "Maybe next time."

They left the building as the other's patiently waited for them. It was hard to believe that all of them were now superheroes, but none of them would change that fact. They were happy and all together.

As they walked together the two brothers without realising it both thought the same thing as the sun shined above them.

This is how it's meant to be.

A/N: The end...for now at least. I'm already planning more BH6 fanfics with Tadashi. But whether or not it's still in this universe is still being debated. What do you guys think? Sequel?

So look out for my fanfics in the future, but for now this isn't a goodbye, it's a see ya later.

Like it? Want to see more BH6 fanfics from me the future? Comment below, let me know! ;)
