Big Hero 7 S2

*The sun is already rising high when they all woke up from their deep slumber. Some manage to snap awake in an instant while others had to gain a little more persuasion to wake up and accept the day. On all sides, they all felt as if the events that had occurred last night had been nothing more than a very long nightmare that had suddenly sprang into action with the following; Trina and Noodle Burger Boy returning, the buddy Guardians hunting them down, and Kage's final confrontation with his former family. Because of how surreal it all was they treated it as that, a nightmare. Feeling somewhat good they gather in a group chat to talk.*

Cora: Morning everyone!

Fred: Hey! *Yawn* Man, we sure slept in late. I usually wake up pretty early.

Honey Lemon: Well I'm just happy that we even managed to sleep in at all.

Wasabi: Yeah.. *Yawn* Kinda makes you wonder what the heck happened last night.

Hiro: Either way-

*That's when Hiro notices from the corner of his computer that shows a newsfeed icon in the corner. He pulls it up and there he sees the video images of last night's events, with a picture of Diego Cruz in a mug shot.*

Dunder: This is Bluff Dunder in the aftermath of the Buddy Guardians Massacre. What seemed to be a promise for better protection turned to a catastrophe as former police officer Diego Cruz has been arrested for activating the Buddy Guardians' killer program, a program he consented to be built according to his messages with this manufacturer who disguised themselves as an employee of Krei Tech. Thanks to Big Hero 7 and their allies, they had saved our city from impending doom. But what does this spell for Diego Cruz? Possibly being in jail for a pretty long time. We have yet to receive a word from his family or any comments from Chief Atallah.

*The reality of it all comes crashing down with a humongous force.*

Fred: Holy shit! How could we forget about last night?!

Honey Lemon: wait a minute! Did we tell Commander Carter about Trina?

Cora: I-I don't think so! We were so tired from the battle that we fell asleep as soon as we got home!

Hiro: We need to go find Commander Carter and clear Diego's name! He can hate us for all we care, but he was manipulated by Trina to consent to it! Come on we got to-

*That's when Hiro's phone buzzes with a message where he immediately sees who it is.*

Hiro: Suit up everyone, Commander Carter is calling us.

*They all suit up for the meeting, which so happened to be a hospital where Chief Atallah is currently at where Commander Carter sees them all.*

Cora: Commander Carter! You called for us?

Carter: Just to check if you are all alright. I can't believe the nerve of that-!

*He starts growling to himself as he paces back and forth before he takes one breath to calm himself before he continues speaking.*

Carter: I've been told by an officer about what had happened last night. As of now, Diego Cruz is currently on his way to the state penitentiary where he will be placed under maximum security.

Honey Lemon: Isn't that a bit too harsh?

Carter: I think its justified considering that his buddy guardians costed thousands in property damage, not to mention endangering the city along with your lives!

Cora: But it wasn't his fault!.. Well.. not fully that is.

Hiro: Trina, one of our old villains came back and designed the Buddy Guardians. Then she offered it to Diego under the guise of Krei Tech-

Carter: Was Diego brainwashed by Trina?

Fred: Pretty sure not..

Carter: Was he coerced to working with Trina?

Wasabi: No... He just bought them without... knowing it wasn't a Krei Tech employee..

Carter: I know what you are saying and I commend you for trying to defend the officer; but that does not negate his actions. He still chose to order those Buddy Guardians' behind Chief Atallah's back, and he still consented to the program to be added to said Buddy guards! He may not have meant to kill you all, but his stubbornness and his wounded pride made you and the city a target ready to be fired...

Cora:... Then could you at least do something for Megan? I-I don't want people to hurt her just because she's related to him...

*The commander looks at Cora with his eyes showing understanding.*

Carter: I don't know how much I could do for Megan Cruz, that is something Chief Atallah and I will have to discuss once she wakes up... I'll see what I could do..

Hiro:... Could we at least talk to Diego?

*Carter looks at the boy before he receives a phone call, to which he steps aside to answer. The team didn't mean to listen in, but they heard the following.*

Carter: Letwiks? Yes, is the prisoner in place?... Wait... what do you mean you never left?!

*Hearing Carter's voice shift from confusion to shock.*

Carter: Do what you can! Find him!

* He hangs up the phone to which he turns to the team, his expression showed that something terribly wrong had happened... and it scared them.*

Carter: That was the police van that was supposed to pick Diego Cruz to prison.

Gog: Supposed to? What do you mean by 'supposed'?

Carter: They never left the prison! Which means-

Hiro: Oh no!

*The yatch is sailing at its highest speed as Nikolas, Sun-Fire, and the Fujita sisters take Diego Cruz to the island in no time at all. They place a burlap sack over his head to keep his face hidden from the village until they reach to the room. Still handcuffed from behind he is pushed to the floor as he felt the bag removed to see a young man.*

Lenny: Guten Morgen! I hope you had enjoyed your trip... The Madame would like to speak to you~...

*In the shadows lay Madame Nozako, the light only managing to shine on her hands, withered skin contrasting the sharp talons that are her fingers. The only other way to know what she looked liked was her silhouetted and her hellish reddish brown eyes that seem to pierced his soul.*

Nozako: So... You are Diego Cruz... former chief of Police of San Fransokyo Police Department... father of Megan Amelia Isabella Cruz...and former husband to Amaya Cruz.

*Diego looks up when he heard those two phrases utter out. How did she know?! Just who is she? The old woman summons forth her own holographic screens to show some from San Fransokyo news... and others more personal.*

Nozako: In this day and age you could see what happens in one side of the world in a click of a second. Yours was just the most recent. Also, Amaya spoke of you and Megan.

*The more personal side were files of Amaya's progress reports, her time training, and a few keepsakes she kept... one is a wedding photo they took, the happy couple of the past a stark and painful contrast of today... and the other of them with their little daughter Megan, back when they looked to be the perfect family.*

Nozako: She mentioned on what kind of husband and father you were to us whenever time permitted her to speak. And I have to say, in some ways she is correct. You would had given her and your daughter the world... too bad she's dead because of the Buddy Guardians you consented be released to the public.

*Diego glares at Madame Nozako but a whack from Nikolas makes him look down in supposed respect. Nozako sighs as she then pulls out the newspaper about Big Hero 7 and their rescue.*

Nozako: You know, the city has no appreciation for you Diego... All they care about are the heroes. and in their eyes you are their villain.. Sadly, not much can be done to salvage your reputation... but you could save something else...

*She displays the photo of Megan to his face, her smile present like days before this disaster.*

Nozako: You could step in to fill in your former wife's role and earn something... like say, money for her future college, protection from all those news reporters and unsavory folk that may take in their heads a chance to destroy her... Also, you would get revenge on Big Hero 7 who ruined your life... Does that interest you Diego Cruz?

* Diego looks at the group of people, then to old photo of his family before this disaster... then to Big Hero 7. Tadashi stared at the man as the minutes paved way for tension and hoped that Diego, in some way or form, would reject the offer and at the very, very least have his memory erased(A scenario he heard had happened a couple times and one that didn't result any blood). He knew what Nozako is doing by baiting Diego with Amaya's few words of praise and painting it as if deep down she still loved them when she was clear that she made her choice a long time ago. Diego's answer came in a form of a growl as he tried to punch through the picture of Big Hero 7 despite it being a hologram, but that was enough of an answer to Nozako. The old Madame then slowly stands up, her cane in hand as she looks at Diego and the others.*

Nozako: Welcome to the clan Diego... *To the rest* And I got a special present for you all before you return back to San Fransokyo...

*They had to sit through seeing Carter immediately calling for search parties to find Diego under cover lest they heighten the tension of the city if they learned Diego is missing and not in prison. Eventually, after getting the card to call in case they spot Diego and having received word that Chief Atallah is safe they all left. But Hiro and Cora both knew that they have one person to see that needs comfort more than anything. Hiro knocks on the door and jumps back to Cora's arms when Eduardo rips the door open with a bat on his hand with a furious glare on his face.*

Eduardo: I thought I told you bastardos to leave us alone-!

*That's when he sees the slightly taken aback Hiro and Cora, to which the old man clears his throat and throws away the bat.*

Eduardo: I apologize... I thought you were those news reporters hounding on us... Are you here for Megan?

Hiro: Yeah, we are... is she alright?

Eduardo:...*Sighs heavily* Not really... she's in her room all day and I don't think she needs company now..

Cora: Oh.. Look... I know what Diego did was extremely messed up, but that doesn't mean we don't want to stop being friends. at least let her know that we're here for her whenever she needs us...

Eduardo: I will chiqita… Its good to know that Megan can count on you two...

Hiro: Yeah.. Thank you Mr. Cruz...

Eduardo: Just call me Eduardo if you want, and your welcome.

*The teens leave to head back to Cora's house when the old man walks towards Megan's room. Knocking gently the old man called out to Megan.*

Eduardo: Megan? Can I come in?

*Megan is in her room, holding her pillow close as she wipes her nose with her sleeve, her eyes red and blotchy from crying. She wanted to tell off her grandfather that no, she doesn't want to see him, but her mouth betrayed her thoughts.*

Megan: Sure...

*Eduardo goes inside the room and sits down in a chair close to her but enough space to make his granddaughter comfortable.*

Eduardo: Your nose is leaking...

*Megan groans as she just wipes it off with her sleeve, to which Eduardo pulls out a box of tissues and hands one to Megan, who takes it and blows her nose into it. The old man continues to talk to her, looking at her in the eyes.*

Eduardo: Your friends, Hiro and Cora came by. They said-

Megan: That they don't want to be friends with me anymore? I understand that, who would want to be friends with someone who's dad tried to murder them and the city! After all, that's what everyone at school did...

*Her phone is unlocked and showed that a social website she signed up to had message after message of horrid things directed to her based on what her father had done. Some friends she even made at her school had even unfollowed her and blocked her on those basis. Eduardo's heart broke seeing those hate messages directed to Megan, his heart clenching in anger at these people who had turned their backs on her; but his mind reminded him what matters now is reassuring that Megan is not utterly alone. Megan throws her phone away to another side of the room and then presses her pillow to her face, her knees curled to her chest. Eduardo comes over to sit by her side and gently hug her by the side.*

Eduardo: No no… They came to say that they're here for you whenever you need them... Diego did hurt them, but that doesn't change their friendship with you. They love you.

*Megan lets out a shaky sigh before she hugs her grandfather back, burying her face to his chest with a small smile present on her lips. At Cora's house the young teen went to talk to her family about what had happened when they went to Commander Carter. Needless to say they had no words to say about such turn of events. After that, Cora recalled something about last night that she realized she hadn't asked before. She turns to Kage and asks.*

Cora: Uncle Kage?... How did you defeat Trina and Noodle Burger Boy? What was that thing you were shooting at them?..

*Kage looks at Mizuchi who merely nods as if giving permission to the younger brother. Kage then goes to the butsudan in a drawer and pulls out a black chip, about the size of a half dollar coin, with red vein like marks on it.*

Kage: This.. is a chip that when applied to any weapon... can destroy any electronic being or weapon in the area... Once it strikes the target, the wires become infected... then to the RAM, then the Hardwires... then to the remaining parts. It will destroy each data and memory to the point that once its destroyed, no amount of rebuilding would ever bring it back the way it was...

Cora: Isn't that like Bessie?

Kage: No. Bessie's blast would merely deactivate the technology... this one is meant to completely obliterate the tech to the point where nothing is left. Nothing!

Cora:... Nozako really thought this through huh?

Mizuchi:...No... Father was the one who built this... Mother gave it to me and explained how it came to be. In short, Father built this as a last resort should any robotic being or weapon go rouge... and the reason why she gave it to me is because she did not want my body to fall into the hands of other scientist and 'imitate her work'...

*Cora's eyes widen in slow realization and horror, her hands covering her mouth. Mizuchi sighs before he speaks once more, reaching out to hold her hand... but Cora didn't do the same. She sighs before she goes to hug her father then the rest of her family close before she heads back upstairs. Mizuchi looks at his younger brother before he takes the chip and places it safely into the drawer and wrapped around a napkin.*

Chara:... Was Diego my friend?

Mizuchi:... Chara?

Chara: Was Diego my friend from highschool?.. Was he quarter back 27?

*Kage nods, to which Chara looks at her hands before she looks back at Kage.*

Chara: Kage, you are currently the only one who knows who I was back when we were together when we were 15. So please tell me, was Diego always this… ruthless?

Kage:... No.. he wasn't... He initially didn't trust me when you introduced me to him, but looking back now I see he was looking out for you because of my.. behavior whenever I'm not with you lets say.. standoffish, he was a strong and well meaning man that cared about you and his family... But as of now, his actions morphed him into someone else... someone unlike him..

Chara: I see... Kage, I know that I couldn't show who I was yet because of news coverage... but wouldn't it had hurt to at least tell him who I was? M-Maybe that would've at least do something, anything!

Kaguya: Chara, that would involve telling him about my sisters and Nozako. We're only lucky that Megan agreed to keep our secret; For example, Granville knows about Nozako and the clan, but what will she react if I tell her that I'm a mermaid? I don't know what Diego would had truly done if we did tell him... but seeing how he was when he encountered his former wife after all these years, it would not be good..

*Chara bites her bottom lip in thought before she looks upstairs before standing up. Kage looks up and tries to reach out to her but stops, deciding to let this play out on its own. Chara knocks on Cora's door, sighing before she speaks up.*

Chara: Cora?... Could I come in?

*There is no response much to the woman's disappointment, but figured the blue haired maiden just wanted to be alone for a bit. Honestly, who could blame Cora after learning such piece of disturbing news. Even so, Chara speaks her thoughts to Cora before she leaves.*

Chara: We'll be here for you if you want to share any thoughts you have... We love you...

*Chara heads downstairs to the living room where she holds Baymax's hand and guides him to the basement. Cora is lying down on her futon mattress, sighing as her thoughts run through her along with Chara's words. These events happening are becoming more stressful and fear wrenching throughout the weeks since Di and Liv's arrest and Sycorax shutting down. Now they are dealing with Diego who is missing after the catastrophic events of last night; agents of the Mizichio Clan coming after her team and on the search for the heir. Sure, events that seemed to be light hearted and joyful came and went but this sense of dread has been building up inside her.. just how long is this going to continue? Cora felt as if she is in the ocean in the middle of a brewing storm; on one hand the storm could become lethal and it could destroy everything they know and love... but there's also the path where the calm will arrive and provide a safe passage through the water... Cora can't give up hope! She has to be there for her family and friends and do her best to help them! They need to know that they can make through this despite the situation looking to be worse. At Hiro's side, he is on his bed lying down thinking through these events. Like his girlfriend, he knew that events are taking a sinister turn due to the appearance of the Mizichio goons and Diego's actions.. and he knew how important it is that they must stay a float for this endeavor. But he had an additional thought in regards to surviving the storm. Cora, his girlfriend of nearly two years, is their prime target, the main reason why they are in the city. He can't imagine how much this was eating her right now. Throughout their years together, small in comparison to many others, he knows that Cora would had done anything for him and for her family despite her own fears.. so much so that she would at times risk herself as well. Just like Tadashi... just like himself... Cora had been the one to tell him not to push himself so far... now is a good time more than ever to repay it back. He pulls out his phone and sets up a face call, to which to his delight Cora answers.*

Cora: Hey Hiro... You doing alright?

Hiro: As much as one can be... How about you?

Cora:... Honestly, I'm just not fully OK... What happens? now? Diego is missing! Who knows where he is?

Hiro: Babe, look at me... We can get through this together. Through hell and back remember?

Cora: *Sighs before giving a small smile back* through hell and back... I love you Hiro..

Hiro: I love you too Cora.

*At the island Diego Cruz is outfitted in a black skintight suit with dark blue shoulder armor pads and knee caps tied with combat boots and a set of graphene blades at his disposal. He had been told that they previously belonged to the thief, Momakase, one of Nozako's most loyal and strongest soldiers. But Momakase made the mistake that had costed her position and standing with Nozako.. and he will soon see what would happen to those who disobey the Madame. He is lead to the depths of the castle where Nozako's lab resides, the temperature at first becoming unbearably warm to bone chilling cold. If Diego didn't know his fiction he would say he was descending into hell itself like in Dante's Inferno. Its there he sees the masked Sun-Fire, Fujita Sisters, and Lenny stand by as the shadow of Nozako appears.*

Nozako: Thank you all for coming. And I must say... I knew that design would suit you Cruz...

Diego: *Monotone* Thank you my Madame...

Nozako: Now... If you are all aware, the chip I had requested is now installed... but I did add a few changes.. and you will see them soon...

*The lights far north light up to show Momakase, tied up and her mouth tapped shut. A myriad of hideous burn scars mars her otherwise pretty face; He noted that Lenny patted Sun-Fire on his shoulder while muttering something on the lines of 'Good job' when the masked man turned his head away. Lenny then goes up to untie the woman who merely stands still, not daring to make a move.*

Nozako: This wench was given an order along with your fellow members of the family to kill Big Hero 7 and then find my granddaughter.. But she had other ideas.. apparently she knows already who my heir is, and rather than swiftly bring her to me she decided to slay her along with Big Hero 7. Sun-Fire happened to be around and stopped the traitor before it was too late. I thought about what good message I should send to those who dare to disobey my order and harm my grandchild.. But then I recalled the chip! It took some time but I did it... I've seen the genius behind this chip and I decided to add my own personal touch...

*The madame turns her attention to Momakase where they see her hand... The Madame's hand showed age; wrinkled and thin like any other. But two things stood out. Her nails were long and sharp like talons, ready to strike at any unfortunate soul that dares to displease her; but her hand also showed wires lightly exposing themselves through her semi translucent skin along with her veins, making it more hauntingly beautiful yet disgustingly hideous at the same time. Her hand turns to have her palm face upward to which her fingers start to move.. to which they see Momakase suddenly jerk and twist like a marionette. The thief soon found herself breaking her own arm and her own legs, her muffled screeches of pain growing louder the more she is forced to injure herself by some unforeseen force. Finally, Nozako seemed satisfied and puts away her hand, and with it Momakase drops to the floor, now limp and broken, her voice gone. Lenny gets up to pick her up and take her away.*

Nozako: *To Lenny* Keep her alive.. for now..*To the others*… This would be my project... This chip I desired was to be used to study and copy the blood type of one to recreate another should any donors be of short supply... but that got me thinking.. suppose you could connect one blood to the other.. and make them do as you command could be possible correct? it can... and I am the perfect candidate for it. My blood happens to be O negative, perfect to give to anyone... And much easier for me to control them with my blood in their veins~...

*She then walks to the three sisters and Tadashi... with her gaze focused on the young man.*

Nozako: Curios how while you provide your service to me your brother is the nuisance that disrupted my work. Its not your fault though... your brother simply doesn't know any better. In fact... I have something special for the boy in the upcoming graduation held in your 'honor'...

*She pulls out another chip from her pocket sleeve, this one clearly a match to Di's chips she used to mutate her victims to monsters. Tadashi's eyes widened behind the mask, his heart racing intermittingly. But before he could react he felt a sharp blow to the back of his neck, making him drop cold to the ground, alive but paralyzed. Lenny smirks as he carries Tadashi and takes the chip from Nozako's hand.*

Lenny: Shall I tell the doctors to start operating right away?

Nozako: Yes~... *To the others* You're all dismissed. One of my handmaiden's will lead you to your rooms.. *To Diego* And don't forget to make yourself at home... cause this will be the only one that will accept you...

*The others are lead away as Nozako hummed to herself in thought before she came to an idea.. Just then Lenny returns, having finished his work when Nozako speaks*

Nozako: Tell me, when was the last time I've ventured outside this island?

Lenny: Almost 17 years, 29 weeks, 4 days, 3 hours, and 2 minutes ago my Madame.

Nozako:.. I'm getting old Lennard. At the very least before my body expires... Its time I visit this city myself. After all, since neither of them could find my heir... then I'll look for her myself.

*Tuesday came and the city had reverted to its calm, well as much as the calm they could get. The repairs are nearly completed and Chief Atallah is released from the hospital. She supposed she should thank her lucky stars that this is a highly advanced city, advanced to the point where a wound like hers would require months in another state. With their tech, she was out in merely a few days. But she was not focused on her recovery at all; all her thoughts are concerning Diego's actions and what his family is going through. Since waking up she had been informed of what Diego had done along with his disappearance, how Big Hero 7 had stopped them, and of Megan and her grandfather. The two is what got Chief Atallah walking towards their house, this time not in her police uniform, but simply in a pair of jeans, a flannel shirt, and her dark blue head scarf wrapped around her head. She knocks on the door lightly before she found herself greeted by Eduardo, who nods in greeting.*

Eduardo: Buenos Dias Chief Atallah. What brings you here?

Chief Atallah: Simply just to talk with you and Megan. If both of you would want to that is.

Eduardo: I suppose I could talk, but I should ask-

Megan: Chief Atallah?

*The police chief and old man turn their heads to see Megan at the base of the stairs, dressed semi casual in a pair of jean shorts and a oversized T-Shirt, her hair let loose.*

Chief Atallah: Hello Megan.

Megan: Is something up?

Chief Atalla: Only that I merely want to have a small chat with you.

Megan: *Raising eyebrow in suspicion* About what exactly?

Chief Atallah: To see how you are doing.

Megan: I'm doing... OK.. Not great obviously but not terrible...

Chief Atallah: I see... Megan, if you need anything, you are free to come to my office or contact me.

Megan:... Could I ask why? After all that happened with my dad I thought you wouldn't bother helping us... after all, the news reporter is more focused on the fact that I am the daughter of the rouge police officer so much that I think some threw me a death glare at me! Dad flat outwent behind your back! So why bother helping me?

Chief Atallah: The news reporters are part of the reason why Megan. They hunt for a story and word it in such a way that would nab peoples attention, but don't consider the consequences it would follow. *Sighs*… Megan... I was merely two years older than you when.. when the terrorists attacked New York.. and the news coverage showcased the terrorists in question and what they looked like. And being that I wear this *Gestures to her headscarf* I was seen as dangerous despite having nothing to do with it. I had to practically prove that I wasn't a traitor or a spy by any means necessary just so they could stop turning their heads whenever I walk down the street, especially by the police.

Megan: The Police?

Chief Atallah: You would know about police brutality in the news, about how they would abuse their authority to hurt others, even arresting them when they had done nothing.. My family and I faced their suspicions and distrust that for the next two decades I had to stop wearing my headscarf... But you know? I had an epiphany one day. It came on the day a super and a cop had stopped a corrupt officer and the villain. Ultimately, the people who use their titles to justify their heinous actions are the ones in the wrong. Being the police is just a job, but its ultimately how the people use their titles for their actions. So, I decided I would be the police officer that would help others along with supers despite what people would say otherwise.

*Megan looks to the side, biting her bottom lip in silence before she looks back at Chief Atallah once more.*

Chief Atallah: The news reporters and your schoolmates are the ones in the wrong to place all their hate on you and its not fair that you suffer for Diego's mistakes... Megan, I will do what I can to help you show that you are your own person. That you are more than what others see based from what Diego had done... and no one can take that from you.

Megan: Thanks Chief Atallah.

*Megan gingerly holds Chief Atallah's hand, to which she gives a warm smile in return and squeezes the young teen's hand gently in return. She then gets up and heads towards the exit, looking back to see Eduardo and Megan standing by the doorway.*

Chief Atallah: Again, if you need anything I'll do what I can to help you all. Have a good day.

*Eduardo and Megan nod in response, smiling as Chief Atallah makes it to the streets and walks away. with Diego Cruz he is training in the depths of the castle, using his blades to combat the robotic attack dummies as they try to stop him with their own built in weapons. One by one he slices them all to pieces as he places away the blades in their sheath, his heart beat now slowing as Lenny stops his stopwatch and goes over to the older man.*

Lenny: Hm~. A new record on your part. You certainly take on your lessons rather well Cruz.

Diego: Considering that this is the place with no second chances, I have to. But thanks.

Lenny: You are already showing to be a fine replacement. *Checks watch* Oh! Its time to pick up the package!

Diego: What package? Another weapon?

Lenny: No. Just a little present for the heir.

*Lenny soon leaves the room before Diego could ask about the heir, making him huff before he practices his stances. Lenny goes to the village where he finds himself at a jeweler shop where a middle aged man of Italian descent quickly vows his head to greet the right hand man of the Madame.*

Jeweler: Welcome!

Lenny: Do you have it ready?

Jeweler: Of course, I'll bring them out in a moment.

* He goes to the back where he soon returns with a jewelry chest made of mahogany with beautiful carvings on the sides, to which Lenny paid the man handsomely. Nozako is in her center of the throne room with Momakase bowed before her, tied and gagged as usual.*

Nozako: You know by now that you should be dead, with your remains solely being nourishment for the soil... But then I thought of something better... I already placed my chip inside you so I know that if you dare try anything that is against my plans... you'll know. You'll see what your new objective will be once my heir is located... allow my to show an example.

*Lenny arrives just in time, his smile at Momakase condescending and malicious as if taking joy on her helplessness. Nozako goes to open the chest to reveal the jewelry inside.*

Nozako: I had commissioned one of our jewelers to craft this parure. Beautiful isn't it?

*Her hands pull out each piece of jewelry starting from a ring, to earrings, to bracelets, then to a necklace. She then pulls out the final piece, a beautiful tiara.*

Nozako: The jewels are of opals and diamonds, each creating a pattern suited for a young lady. I am also impressed by their craftsmanship in regards to the metal... don't you agree?

*That is when Momakase eyes widened once she looked closer. The metal is of stainless steel with hints of gold...with one sapphire at the tip of the tiara...*

Nozako: You wouldn't hurt my heir with your family swords adorned on her body... would you?

*Momakase in response lets out muffled cries, trying to move but ultimately trapped. Nozako scoffs before snapping her fingers to get Lenny to pick her up.*

Nozako: Get her to the handmaiden quarters under lockdown.

Lenny: Of course My Madame.

*Nozako nods as she receives a holographic message to which she opens it. Its one of the doctors, dressed in his surgical garb complete with a medical mask.*

Doctor: The test subject has shown remarkable skills since the inoculation the other day. He is ready.

Nozako: Good. sedate him and place him in a cell..*Giving a malicious smile* then we'll see what he can do once we return to San Fransokyo~.

* The next day has passed and Cora and her family were at the café; the adults mostly conversing with Cass as she goes through the day while Cora is hanging out with her friends with the additional three; the three being Esme, Miyuki, and Megan. The teen girl sat between the young couple as they conversed about their upcoming graduation ceremony and plans for the summer, occasionally poking at one another as friends do. In time, Megan realized that Hiro and Cora's friends are cool people to hang out with their own unique quirks and personalities. Though Megan did bring up one point.*

Megan: so, you're all graduating? Wow, that's a big step. What do you think you'll do along with your super hero business?

Honey Lemon: Actually, we hadn't thought of that. We'll just have to see how it all goes in the end.

Gogo: Agreed. Sides, we can't be supers forever.

Fred: WWHat? But guys! We done so much for this city and showed how awesome we are!

Cora: That is true... but I don't think we have to continue being supers... but then again no one really knows... I think its best for now that we enjoy this while we can... past experience taught me that...

Miyuki: That is true. But speaking of supers- *Catches herself in time* actually, I can save that for later tonight at base.

Hiro: Super hero related business?

Miyuki: Yes... something important that I noticed..

*Kage looks at Chara, both sitting in relative silence after talking to Cass. That is when Kage clears his throat.*

Kage: You know Chara… Have I told you how we first met?

Chara: I don't think so... what do you know?

Kage: It was a rainy day. I was walking back to the apartment carrying my bag. In all my hubris I didn't bring an umbrella or ever wore a rain coat because it seemed too much of a sunny day to rain. *Chuckles* So I ended up slipping and falling on my bum as a result and dropping my papers to the wet sidewalk.

*Chara chuckles at the thought which makes Kage smile as he continues his story.*

Kage: That's when you came in.. you were holding an umbrella over my head and asked if I needed help picking up my papers. Admittedly, when I first saw you, I thought you were the most prettiest girl I've ever seen.

*That got Chara to blush as she nervously wrings her hands.*

Kage: After that you took me to this very café.

Chara:.. this café? I took you here?

Kage: Yes... years does wonders to buildings and people doesn't it? You ordered a coffee with vanilla cream, and me being a boy who had little to no experience of the world ordered the same thing. We talked and compared our views of our respective schools. The way you described Westerberg made me rather nervous around jocks to be honest.

Chara: *Blinking in recognition* Y-Yeah! I noted how one time Ram chased down a couple freshmen out the party because they snuck in and gave them an atomic wedgie! Man, looking back I could see why you didn't want to go to the football games.

Kage: Yes.. We stayed till the rain stopped where we went to our separate ways... but you then you asked me where I would like to meet up again and I.. I said yes. I couldn't believe that someone like you, a cheer captain that had that highschool around your finger would consider someone like myself..

Chara: Maybe cause I liked you and wanted to know you more... and I think over time... at SFIT when you took me there one day... I realized that I liked you back...

Kage: Yeah... Chara, I noticed that with all the monster attacks, the police, and the sirens.. you hand't gotten a proper reintroduction to San Fransokyo.

Chara: That is true.. you think a date would suffice for lost time?

Kage: A tour around San Fransokyo?.. Of course my love.

*The day turns to evening where two things are happening. The whole gang plus Miyuki meet up at the base, Base-max fully repaired from last time with no permanent damage, as Miyuki begins to speak.*

Miyuki: Have you guys noticed that we hadn't heard anything from Sun-Fire?

Hiro: Sun-Fire?

Fred: Oh! You mean the anti-hero among the group of villains we encountered before?

Miyuki: Yes... Like I said, have you heard of any of them?

Wasabi: No... we hadn't seen them since the Buddy Guardians attacked the city...

Honey Lemon: You don't the Buddy Guardians... got them right?

Cora: Unlike...*Gulps* Amaya... there were no bodies... maybe they're laying low until they know that the Buddy Guardians are disabled.

Fred: Or... maybe they went back to their origin place!

Hiro: Origin place? What do you mean by that?

Fred: I mean they went to their own secret base not in the city-

Cora: The island!

Wasabi: You mean the island where the sirens' kidnapped you then your whole family?

Cora: N-No! I mean the other island... The one where my father and uncle used to live...

*Everyone felt an unease surge inside, knowing full well about Cora's tragic ancestry from her father's side.*

Cora: Considering that the Fujita Sisters' skates are prosthetics, they could have gotten injured.

Baymax: It is true.

*Baymax connects his hand to the handle on Base-Max, to which he looks up and asks.*

Baymax: May I display my scans onto your screen.

Base-Max: Access granted.

*The scans show the Fujita Sisters first, displaying their health stats and their genetic code along with their feet. Then to the man who had some sort of robotic eye... but the last one was more...curios. When Sun-Fire's scan turned up it was incomplete. All they know is that he is a male about 6'0, around the age of the young adults, and that he had faded burn scars from a year prior, suggesting that he was in a fire and survived. To them, the man almost reminded them of their beloved friend, but they had pushed it aside. The reason there is no complete scan is because the mask he is wearing kept his facial features completely hidden and the chip on his neck seemed to be emitting its own energy. And when they scanned for them on the city, they were no where to be found.*

Cora: I think we should set up a search tonight. They could have scan jammers.

Miyuki: No.. at least not now... you have the rehearsal tomorrow.. Afterwards we can look for them...

Hiro: Alright. We search tomorrow night.

*The gang disperse, the main four riding in Wasabi's car while Cora gets on Baymax.*

Cora: *To Hiro* You coming?

Hiro: Yeah. I am. Just give me a moment.

*Hiro walks back inside to see Miyuki preparing to leave when he calls out to her.*

Hiro: Miyuki? Could I talk to you?

Miyuki: Yeah.. Whats up?

Hiro:...Why do you really want to put off the search for tonight?

Miyuki:... Is it bad to say that I'm.. scared of seeing Sun-Fire?

Hiro: How come? He's been a good help to us.

Miyuki: I don't mean I'm afraid of him... I'm scared of what happened to him.. and seeing the scan from Baymax...he's gone through something... He mentioned he was in an accident that resulted in his powers... and seeing the burn marks he gotten over a year ago.. *Sighs heavily* does he sound familiar Hiro?

*Hiro quickly understands what Miyuki is saying and his heart gives a painful pang across it. He goes to hold Miyuki's hand in silent comfort, to which the ice maiden gives a small smile.*

Hiro: We're not doing this alone. We're in this together.

*Meanwhile, Kage is waiting at the base of the stairs when he looks up to see his date and beloved at the top. Chara wore a dark blue of shoulder short sleeve with an ankle length skirt. Walking down Chara brushed one strand of hair behind her ear.*

Chara: Am I OK?

Kage: You're wonderful.

*That is when Baymax speaks up.*

Baymax 1: It is important to note that you must return back here before midnight at least.

Kage: Mizuchi told you that didn't he?

Baymax 1: Yes. He also says to tell you both to have a good time.

Chara: We'll be alright.

*The two step out and are now waiting for the trolley, both standing still when Chara got a thought in her head. That's when her calm smile changes to one of concern.*

Chara:... You're right.. I've been away from San Fransokyo for so long.. What can I even do in this city?

Kage: Chara my love...

*The trolley arrives to which Kage and Chara take a seat.*

Kage: Let me fill in what you've missed. After all, you've got a lot to see.

*The first stop they made is in the bright center of the city, where all the buildings and attractions stand tall and proud. Kage proudly shows Chara around the city, the latter in awe of the progress and technology the city had gone through. They stand in front of a fountain which shifts to a rainbow once the lights shifts to create one. A gay couple kiss underneath it at the sight of the rainbow, to which Chara couldn't help but smile at the sight. They later go pass by business stores as Kage explains the functions and how they work as they pass by. And throughout the date Chara either excitedly pulled Kage to explain what new building they set up, or gawk at whatever adorable mascot it made up just to sell their product. They had a small dinner at a takoyaki place where Chara ordered one sea salt takoyaki with a small amount of green onions and mayo. An odd combination to Kage but not one to judge her tastes. Eventually they are back home after a full night of reminiscing, laughter, and love. They enter the house where Baymax 1 is talking to Cora while Mizuchi and Kaguya held a small conversation over tea.*

Cora: Hey guys! How was your date?

Chara: It was amazing. I can't believe San Fransokyo had changed so much after all these years! Like, do you know there are little robots that can clean your floors? That would had made spring cleaning at my house so much easier.

Cora: Yeah.

* The couple start to head upstairs where Baymax scans Chara, but the strawberry blonde woman mouthed 'not yet' before joining her boyfriend to their bedroom, where she gently rubs her belly in thought. Meanwhile on that very night at sea, the ship carrying the Fujita Sisters along with Nikolas at the kitchen clutching onto the table, trying to adjust to the rocking of the ship as violent waves hit them.*

Middle Sister: Ugh! Remind me why we can't use a plane to get over there?

Nikolas: Quit whining!

Elder Sister: I'm almost starting to envy Sun-Fire now, unconscious to the point that he slept on even when we had to carry him!

* As the four begin to bicker among themselves, Diego merely shakes his head before turning his gaze to the ocean via a porthole window. He knows of the plan they had in mind for Sun-Fire and the group he had once fought along side with, but he held no empathy for either of them. Big Hero 7 had destroyed his life and therefore could care less if they all had perished by their hands. As for Sun-Fire... well, least to say that the one point he had sympathy for Hiro had been promptly shattered once he learned the identity of Sun-Fire. In the end, Diego had a much more pressing matter to attend to on his own. One that he must make for the sake of his daughter and his father; taking them to SutaMura to live a life of peace, far from the city that had no doubt turned its back on them... and hope that they will give him a second chance.*

Diego: Hold on Megan...I'll be there soon.

*The day arrived and everyone is preparing for the rehearsal, all parties having butterflies in their stomach. They all know that this is just a practice for them when the actual graduation comes tomorrow, and yet it did less to dissuade their nervous nature, especially since the rehearsal will be at the early evening in contrast to the actual ceremony at noon. Even so, time flies on and they are in the mist of the speed. In the teen couple's houses they scramble to get their things ready before heading off to the school; with Hiro he carries Tadashi's cap for good luck before hugging his aunt a quick goodbye before he runs off to pick Cora up. For Cora she is in the process of drinking her fourth cup of water in a row when her grandmother comes in the room.*

Kaguya: Cora? Are you alright?

Cora: Hmm? Oh, yeah.. Just making sure I have everything ready for tonight.

Kaguya: Even though tonight is merely a rehearsal?

Cora: Yeah... but is it stupid to feel like it might as well be the real thing?

Kaguya: No Cora. Its not. I'm proud of you Cora, and we'll be prouder still when tomorrow comes.

*Kaguya then grabs the teen girl's necklace and is about to place it around her neck when Cora gently takes the necklace from the old woman's hand.*

Cora: I think tomorrow would be a better time for me to wear it.

Kaguya: *smiles* Of course. I've come to tell you that I'll be at the ocean tonight and be home late.

Cora: Thanks Grandmama. Love you.

*The girl gives a gentle hug to her grandmother, a small smile gracing both of their faces. And so she steps out of her room and into the street where Hiro is waiting for her.*

Cora: Ready Hiro?

Hiro: Ready as you are babe. *smirks with a wink*

Cora: OK sweetie. *kisses him on the cheek*

* With that the two teens head to school hand in hand; but at the meantime the Mizichio goons sneak through the city along with to hide before they strike. Sun-Fire shivered the closer they arrive to SFIT, his stomach twisting in knots as her heart races.*

Nikolas: You will not be late Diego?

Diego: I'll be back before you know it. I just have some family business to attend to.

*With that, Diego goes through the city undetected as he prepares to head back to his house, his goal staying strong in his mind. Megan is currently at her room alone as she texts her friends about their ceremony and whether she could go tomorrow to see them. Her grandfather is away buying groceries as well, leaving her alone at the house. And neither knew of the events coming to barge into their lives once more...and ultimately change the course of their lives forever. Everyone had made it in time for the rehearsal, their own apprehension felt in everyone at various degrees. The two teens manage to greet their friends before they head upstage for their practice. Cora is awkwardly humming through her voice to warm up her vocal chords as to practice her chosen song while Hiro struggles to put on his tie correctly as they are soon to appear on stage. As if that was not enough, the place they had decided to establish their ceremony would be in front of Tadashi Hamada Hall... with the large banner of Tadashi himself standing tall with flowers of remembrance. Cora goes to Hiro and she straightens his tie, looking at him with saddened yet supporting eyes at him, to which he sighs but hold his hand to her face to thank her for the small comfort. Finally, it was time for Hiro to come up first, standing behind the podium as he clears his throat as his first give smiles of support.*

Hiro: Uh, Hello. My name is Hiro Hamada. Uh, Tadashi Hamada was my big brother, and I'm here to accept his degree on his behalf. I used to think that having a legacy just meant that people remembered you. But now, I realize it's more than that. It's when the things that are important to you live on in the people who loved you. And what was most important to my big brother was helping others. He believed that there's good in this world and that it's worth fighting for. He knew that everyone was capable of being someone's hero...

*As his speech continues on with the proud smile of Granville shining along with his friends... shadows move forward. Ready to take destroy the peace... with one figure twitching almost violently.*

Hiro: The last words Tadashi said to me were 'Someone has to help'. Even though he's gone, Tadashi is still helping me everyday. Tadashi wants us all to he-

*There was a slow but loud clap heard in the distance, condescending in nature. They all turn around to see the eldest of the Fujita Sisters skate on followed slowly by her sisters. The gang look on with confusion but their stance went on defense, but with everyone in sight they could be spotted if they sneak out. Hiro looks on with a brow of tension and slight anger; why are they here? Why are they at school interrupting his speech about Tadashi?! Why now are they appearing? Cora looks from behind as she pulls out her phone to summon SkyMax. The eldest looks on with slight intrigue as she continues to speak.*

Eldest Sister: Oh whats wrong? Your speech is so good, why stop?

*That's when Granville stands up, her face glowering at the intruders.*

Granville: If you do not leave now I will call security!

Middle Sister: *Feigning being hurt* Aww, but we were so invested! Invested knowing that this is speech is a massive and utter joke!

*That got Hiro's expression from tension to fury, his teeth baring and his eyes filled with fury.*

Hiro:... What did you just say?

Younger Sister: This whole thing about Tadashi is nothing more than a sham! You are wasting your time on a supposed corpse that gave nothing to this city!

*Now everyone is starting to become furious over the Fujita sisters' words; how dare they disrespect Tadashi's memory?! How dare they insult the younger brother of a beloved student?! Hiro's blood especially began to boil, his eyes widened and his breathing low. The youngest hid her own phone behind her back where she presses a button that connected to a chip on Sun-Fire's neck. The young man twitched and gasped before her felt his whole body and mind twist and morph into something far more destructive. And once it was done... all his mind could do is obey..*

Elder sister: After all... *Looking behind and winking at its direction*

*That is when they see a hulking figure made off earth and fire comes slowly, twitching sporadically as its mutant monstrous face expressed signs of anger and hate towards them.*

*Everyone froze at the sight of the fire monster as squirms in energy.*

Elder Sister: This one would like a few words about Tadashi...*To the creature* Sicc em.

*The monster let out a distorted roar as it charges towards the stadium, leaving behind spots of fire at its wake.*

*Chaotic is what one would describe the whole scenario playing out. Every student managed to evacuate from the scene as the ones on the stadium managed to get off before the creature launches itself at it, making each part catch on fire. Hiro and Cora look up to see the stadium, the very stadium built in honor of Tadashi among the banner burn violently. The teen boy gets a massive flash back of the horrible night a year ago, reliving the sense of helplessness he went through when Tadashi entered the building and never returned.*

Cora: Don't look!

*Cora quickly goes to action and picks up Hiro to run as far away as possible until they made it to the other side of the campus where Cora held Hiro close while muttering out words of comfort, trying to control her own emotions as well.*

Cora: We're not there… we're over here... we're safe...

*But their tears stream down anyway in silence. Of all the things they had expected the Fujita Sisters to do... burning down Tadashi Hamada Hall whilst in the middle of Hiro's speech is the lowest they had seen them do... and the image of that blazing fire taking form of a demon shook them to their core. That is when they heard the voices of their friends.*

Gogo: Hiro! Cora!

Wasabi: Oh thank god you're safe!

*Honey Lemon reaches them first and gives a tight hug as the others slow down, with Fred having pulled Baymax away from the destruction.*

Gogo: We need to get out our super suits and stop that thing before it destroys the school!

Cora: Already on it!

*The skymaxes arrive go through the sky with their ultra armor inside... to which the monster's eyesight catches sight of them and sends blasts of fire, hitting them and destroying it and the armor, much to the team's horror.*

Baymax: Oh no.

Fred: Guess its time to go back to the classics!

Wasabi: Then we're taking the car! Go go!

*They all run away to the car when Fred made the decision to look back.*

Fred: Oh no!

Honey Lemon: Whats Oh no?

Fred* Letting out a high pitched squeal as he points at what he is seeing.*

*The monster is now charging straightforward towards them, the rock fangs bearing wide. That got them more than running and speeding off through the streets when they got to the car. Gogo had taken the initiative to be the driver, which for once Wasabi is more than happy to comply. Activating their speed boost, Cora is quick to call Miyuki about the situation.*

Cora: Miyuki! We need you now! Fire monster on our tails! Meet up at Base asap!

Miyuki: Say no more! I'm on my way!

*They arrive at Base where Roddy is adding one touch at the headquarters when the team come running and getting out their classic suits in a frantic.*

Roddy: Woah there! You guys look like a monster attacked you.

Fred: That's cause that actually happened!

*They all get dressed in their suits where Miyuki gets there in time. Cora quickly pulls up the news where they see the footage of the fire flame monster now leaving the school grounds, where the only damage done were the stadium with Tadashi's banner, the field of grass around it as burn marks, and sparse smoke left behind. Miyuki felt her feet freeze to place at the sight before she turns to see the team fully dressed up.*

Hiro: OK Lets go!

*They all get on Baymax to fly off as Miyuki uses her ice to skate through the air, following them close. The monster is currently surrounded by the police officers, with their flame retardant uniforms and shields as the creature tries to escape. Chief Atallah is in position as she prepares to call for the fire department when she sees the team.*

Chief Atallah: Big Hero 7!

Hiro: Hows the situation?

Chief Atallah: The creature is immensely irritated. We got it surrounded but it won't be long till it strikes. Think Chem Princess and Ice-Frost could handle the situation?

Cora: They can, maybe the fire department will help too.

Chief Atallah: Thought of that honestly, but that creature is something you are familiar with. And a fire monster would make the situation worse for both the firemen and this thing.

Hiro: OK *Via commlink* Guys? Think you got this?

Honey Lemon: We're on it!

*Honey Lemon and Miyuki go forward with the former throwing out her chemballs to create an ice wall. For a moment the monster flinched until its hands melted through the wall. That is when Miyuki sends forth a large blast of ice and snow towards the creature, slowing it down as it growls in pain. For a moment, they all felt pity for the creature... that it until it sends a fire blast above Miyuki. The ice Maiden dodges but felt the reminting heat waves of the blast and felt her head spin in circles. Gogo steps in to pull Miyuki out of the way as the monster now recovered from the ice wave. That is when Chief Atallah receives a message from her comm.*

Chief Atallah: Lieutenant! What is the situation?

Lieutenant: We have a situation over at 221 Baker Street. A home attack is being reported.

Chief Atallah: *eyes widening in terror* Megan! *To Hiro* Alpha! Make sure to get the creature away from civilians and the city if possible! I have an emergency to attend to!

*Hiro is about to ask what it is but he sees the urgency in her eyes and knew that it was important. He activates his commlink to connect to the gang.*

Hiro: Guys! We need to lead the creature away from the city!

Cora: We could take it to the beach! *realization* But Grandmama is there!

Miyuki: Don't you think she could help? After all, seeing what you did back with Trina you know Kaguya's bound to have something up her sleeve.

Cora: Good point... so the beach it is!

Honey Lemon: Good idea! But we need something to lure him away with it!

Fred: I'll be the bait!

*Fred jumps into the action where he catches the monster's attention.*

Fred: Over here! You're not the only one who can breath fire!

*Fred sends out a blast of fire to which the flames of its hands start to grow.*

Fred: Come and get me big boy!

*And with that Fred jumps away towards the direction of the beach, starting a wild goose chase with Big Hero 7 following behind while the police check over property and the citizens in hiding. Chief Atallah drove as fast as her legal status as an police officer would let her until she reaches to the house. The door is completely wide open, suggesting that the intruder got in...Chief Atallah rushes in, checking her sides to make sure that no one else is setting up an ambush before she heard a noise coming from Megan's room. Her heart feared the worst as the police chief runs up and kicks down the door.*

Chief Atallah: Get on the ground and put your hands behind your back!

*And its there that she sees what is happening. Megan is sitting petrified, her grandfather unconscious, and one man turning his head around to let out a hateful glare at the police officer.. one she knew too well.*

Chief Cruz: Diego Cruz?

Diego: Go away Chief Atallah, this does not concern you!

*The woman shakes her head quickly as her stern brow returns, not letting this man get the better of her.*

Chief Atallah: Diego Cruz, leave this room! You are under arrest! I will not let you harm Megan and Eduardo Cruz!

*At first the man says nothing to her before he starts to chuckle.. then that chuckle turned to a bitter and broken laugh. Chief Atallah had a feeling that whatever Diego hoped to gain from Megan and Eduardo, he did not get it even before she arrived. Diego then lets out a bitter smirk at her.*

Diego:*Venom dripping from his voice* You want me to be the bad guy? Fine... I'll be the bad guy!

*He quickly throws his blade to which Chief Atallah dodges and quickly fires her tasers. The man dodges swiftly before he runs out the room, with Chief Atallah following closely behind. Diego is the first to run out the door where he throws out a blade to pin Chief Atallah's sleeve to the side, therefore stalling her long enough for him to get ahead and away from the house. Chief Atallah removes the blade and noticed that its the same type of blade that Momakase had used. That's when she rushes back to Megan's room once her mind brought her to Megan and her grandfather. She finds Megan still in her chair frozen with shock while her grandfather remained unconscious.*

Chief Atallah: *To walkie talkie* We need a medic.

Lieutenant: Copy that.

*With that Chief Atallah focuses on the girl, her voice soft and calm to sooth the teen.*

Chief Atallah: Megan? Are you alright?

*Megan looks at Chief Atallah when she heard her voice. And there Megan's eyes begin to water before tears finally spilt down her face. That is when the teen girl clings to Chief Atallah in a desperate hug, surprising the older woman at first before she returns the hug, her own heart pinging for the teen girl.*

Megan: *Sobbing* D-Dad came in, a-and he said he wanted to take grandpa and I away! But then Grandpa got home and he got upset.. then H-He tried to call you but Dad punched him! I_I didn't Know what to do!-

Chief Atallah: Its OK. Don't force yourself... your safe, and your grandfather will alright...

Megan: *softly* Thank you...

*An ambulance arrives to check of Eduardo and Megan, both who have been cleared and soon to recover. Chief Atallah stayed by her side throughout the procedure. A part of her knew that she has to join Big Hero 7 to go face the monster... but Megan needed her more. As of while the team had managed to get to the beach where Cora dives to the water once Baymax lowers down enough to the wave.*

Cora: Grandmama! Where are you?

*Soon she sees a figure emerge from the water. Her grandmother's long hair loose and her expression of confusion.*

Kaguya: Cora? What is going on?

*That's when they all hear a roar and gotten the faint scent of smoke. Cora quickly explains the situation to her grandmother the closer the flames get to the beach.*

Cora: Do you have the potion?

Kaguya: No, but there should be a small amount back home! Oh but your father is at work and Kage is with Chara and Baymax at the café!

Cora: Its OK Grandmama! We got this. *To Hiro Via commlink* Hiro! You have to get to the house and get the potion! Think you can do that?

Hiro: Oh I do! *To Baymax* Come on Baymax! To Cora's house!

*The two fly away, leaving the remaining five plus the old mermaid to deal with the creature. As predicted, the monster of Earth and fire cannot come near the water without reacting in pain. So the creature tries to follow the heroes that are landbound.*

Honey Lemon: *To Miyuki* Ice-Frost! Think you could lend a hand?

Miyuki: Like you need to ask!

*Honey Lemon and Ice-Frost use their powers to fight back at the monster' but even though the damage is minimal, the anger inside the creature continues to fester. Cora sees this and goes to rapidly swim towards them with all her strength, only to then fell her grandmother's arms wrap around her body and found her self being propelled through the water. For a moment Cora forgets the gnawing fear as she managed to take the detail of how fast her grandmother's mermaid tail is moving and the agility and grace is displaying. Soon enough Cora reaches to shore and runs towards her team, turning her head to shout out her thanks to her grandmother.*

Cora: Guys! You think we can pin him down or tire him out till Hiro comes back?

Gogo: Possibly!

*Back with Hiro and Baymax, they fly down to the house and quickly enter inside. Hiro goes upstairs to Kaguya's room and looks through the items, slightly knocking an item or two down till he finds a container with a small amount of the potion like Kaguya said.*

Hiro: I got it Baymax! Now all we have to do is get it to that monster and find out who it is.

Baymax:*Via Commlink* I already know who the monster is. It is Sun-Fire.

Hiro: Sun-Fire?...Man.. Well, as soon as we get sun-Fire back to normal we can find out his real identity.

*Hiro exits the house and is about to climb on Baymax when he heard this.*

Baymax: I had taken a scan of Sun-Fire while we confronted him with Chief Atallah. I have found a match.

Hiro: A match? Who is he?

*Baymax blinks at Hiro, who now looks at him with interest and apprehension... what came next had Hiro's heart stopping to a halt.*

Fred: Hiro's gotta come back soon! Or else he'll get stronger the longer he's pissed!

*Honey Lemon, who had been throwing chemballs at the creature, turns to Fred with an eyebrow raised.*

Honey Lemon: What do you mean by that?

Fred: The incredible hulk? The longer he's angry, the stronger he becomes! That's simple logic!

*The creature lets out a guttural roar at them as it fiery claws burn brighter than ever.*

Wasabi: OK, I see what you mean by that!

Ice-Frost: Than I say he needs to cool down!

*Miyuki takes her stance as she takes in a deep breath, holding in position as she then blasts forth a flurry towards the creature. The Creature growled before his entire body bursts into flames as he then throws a ball of flame towards them, making them scatter in directions. With Hiro and Baymax they are speeding back to the beach, the potion tied tightly to his waist and the teens' eyes furrowed in determination to get the potion and save them. Gogo, Honey Lemon, and Wasabi are farther than usual up the shore as they hide behind boulders while Fred and Cora found themselves back at the ocean with Kaguya quickly tending to them.*

Cora: OK, considering what Fred said earlier, the monster is super pissed enough to melt through the snow! So what should we do?

Kaguya: Bring the water to him.

Cora: How?

Kaguya: I'll lend a hand... and I think its an over due lesson for you.

*The creature growls as it runs towards the trio when he heard a loud whistle where Fred and Cora are directly behind him. With that he goes to them, his claws open and ready to tear them apart only to then see a ribbon of water hit him on the back, making him yowl in pain. Kaguya holds an orb of water, about the size of a beach ball, before she sends it to strike the monster. Cora momentarily forgot her place as she stares in awe of her grandmother. Her grandmother must be generating diamagnetism to bend the water molecules at her will. Cora snaps back to reality as she tries to focus on her own powers. Cora throws orbs of electricity to the creature to keep him off his balance while Miyuki and Honey Lemon try to trap it. Its there that Hiro is soon spotted from a distance, noticed by Fred.*

Fred: Guys! Hiro's here!

*Its there that something changed in the monster. It was no longer growling... in fact it looked shocked. Its there that the creature charges as a high speed, outrunning Gogo as he heads to Hiro and Baymax's direction.*

Cora: Hiro! Get out of there! It-

Hiro: No.. I'm not going... let him come to me.

*The team heard all of it, unbelieving of what they had just heard. But they knew they would never make it in time to stop the creature, try as they might with even Gogo giving her all. Baymax lands and Hiro steps onto the sand, walking calmly towards the monster clawing his way towards the boy. Yet despite the vast difference in their travel, their hearts raced as one the closer they get to each other; the waves made contact with the monster's feet but he still moves on. The team continues running after the monster, hoping for the slimmest of chances to save Hiro, with Cora being the most determined. Finally, Hiro stands in front of the monster, who had now stalled in front of the boy as its fiery glow beats through his body.*

Hiro: I'm sorry it took this long to realize it.. *eyes starting to tear*I don't know what happened to you... But this isn't who you are... you know who you are..

*The boy's expression shifted the monster's to a more relaxed yet melancholic gaze. He then sees a familiar patch on the side of the monster's neck, making Hiro's eye furrow before he carefully goes to its side.*

Hiro: Just bear with me.. it'll be over soon.

*Hiro carefully removes the patch from his being... allowing his true form to return. The team arrive just in time to see the transformation of the monster... and its there that their hearts stopped once they saw the body slump into Hiro's arms. They look at Hiro with wide, disbelieving eyes, unsure that this is truly the reality they are seeing; but the shocked expression of Kaguya, Cora's gasp of shock, Miyuki frozen in her spot, and Hiro's tear stained but smiling face proved that this is real... Kaguya crawls herself to shore where Baymax waddles over to pick her up and dry her off. The old woman looks at the team and then back to Hiro and they reached to a silent, mutual agreement. With the utmost care, Tadashi slumbers in Baymax's arms as they fly off back to the city in the dark of the night.*

*The Fujita Sisters are with Nikolas at the side of Good luck alley under disguises, having ordered dinner while waiting for one member to join them to recuperate and share what he had gone through. The middle sister turns her head around and spots their fifth member.*

Middle Sister: Hello Diego.

*Diego retains that hateful brow even as he sits down at a chair. Nikolas pushes a can of beer to which Diego immediately grabs it, opens it up, and starts chugging the beer before he crushes it.*

Diego: Another. *Throws away crushed beer can*

Nikolas: I take it they said-

Diego: *Glares heavily at him then the Fujita Sisters* SAY. ONE. MORE. WORD. And I will rip out your tongues!

*Diego receives his second beer to which he drinks it immediately. To the four its clear that there are no additional guests to come join them after all.*

Younger Sister: Anyway, do you think Big Hero 7 got Sun-Fire?

Elder sister: I'll go check.

*The eldest checks her phone to which she lets out a grin.*

Elder sister: From the looks of it, they had not taken him to a hospital.. but somewhere more remote. *To Nikolas* We'll put our food as takeout, we have a location on Big Hero 7.

Lenny: Good.

*The four jump out of their spines as they turn to see Lenny standing behind them, his smile never leaving his face.*

Lenny: When you do get there, make it a bit hospitable. There is a special guest coming who would love to meet them in person...

*Before everyone knew it, Big Hero 7 had arrived back at base. Baymax lays his creator safely onto a couch nearby as the team found themselves in utter silence, not knowing what to say or do... well.. all but one. Cora notices that Hiro had moved to Tadashi's side, looking at the gentle rise and fall of Tadashi's chest while his eyes continue to let out silent tears. Cora joins her boyfriend side and wraps her arm around his shoulders. Its there that Cora finally speaks.*

Cora:.. How did you figure out that.. this is Tadashi?

Hiro: Baymax.. He told me he took a scan of him and saw that he was the monster and Sun-Fire all along...

*With those words uttered, they heard Miyuki finally sob into her hands. Honey Lemon went over to the ice powered maiden to calm her down as Miyuki tries to speak through her chocking sobs.*

Miyuki: A-All this T-time... *Sob* T-Tadashi was alive... B-But I didn't even-I should have-

Honey Lemon: Deep breaths Miyuki...

Baymax: Sensing your distress, taking a deep breath is highly recommended. Along with sitting down in quiet area.

*Honey Lemon nods in agreement as she takes Miyuki to another part of the room to calm her down. Gogo looks on at her girlfriend and companion before turning her gaze to Wasabi and Fred, the latter being uncharacteristically quiet and looking down at his feet. Concerned for her friend, Gogo joins Fred's side and asks him.*

Gogo: Fred? Something up?

Fred: Y-Yeah... I couldn't believe it either... Tadashi is here... As in 'here' here.

Gogo: You know.. this sounds like something from your comic books.. did this ever happen?

Fred: Sometimes... one half its frustrating and removes the crucial arc of the characters... but other times.. it feels like a relief to know that they have a second chance with them...

*Fred pauses, making Gogo's eyebrows furrow at his uncertain expression, making a small pit of uncertainty grow inside as well. Knowing what they know now, Tadashi was their adversary Sun-Fire.. an agent of the Mizichio Clan. That particular thought seemed to have crossed everyone's mind at that realization. All this time, Tadashi Hamada had been a member of the Mizichio Clan for over a year and no one noticed; Hiro and Cora felt their stomachs drop to their cores like an anvil to concrete once they made that connection. Before anyone could voice their opinions, which at the exact moment Miyuki and Honey Lemon returned, they all heard soft groaning coming from Tadashi. Immediately Hiro goes over to Tadashi's side where the older brother opened his eyes and saw the young teen. At first Tadashi thought this was simply another dream fabricated to toy with his mind, but the longer he stares as his eye sight regains focus... he knew it had to be real.*

Tadashi: Hiro?..Is that you?

Hiro: *Gulps softly* Y-Yeah..

Tadashi: Miss me knucklehead?

*And there, Hiro's eyes watered before the streams of tears run down his face before he hugs Tadashi tightly in his arms. Tadashi soon joins his brother in his tears and holding him close as well, the Hamada brothers reunited at last. Soon Tadashi notices everyone around him and lets out a wavering smile as tears continue to stream down his face, to which in response they gather round and give Tadashi a group hug... well.. all save for two. Cora and Miyuki. Tadashi turns to Cora and lets out a half smile at the blue haired teen.*

Tadashi: Hi Cora... you and Hiro still together all this time?

Cora: A solid year.

Tadashi: Wow.. *To Hiro* I'm impressed bone head...

*That is when he sees Miyuki, and there his heart stilled for a moment as memories of his feelings for the ice maiden resurfaced. Miyuki slowly walks over to Tadashi as both found themselves unable to say anything, both their blush spoke volumes in place of their voice. Finally, one addresses the elephant in the room.*

Wasabi: So.. you were Sun-Fire all this time... and you didn't tell us?

*Tadashi's smile loses its place as he sighs.*

Tadashi: Not like I hade a choice in the matter.

Hiro:... Tadashi? How did you survive?

*Tadashi's eyes shut as he think back to the fire, feeling his heart pound heavily to the point it gave a painful ache. He then relives as much as he could; from Lenny finding Tadashi in the flaming rubble, to waking up at the island, to Nozako's tests, and to him running into Miyuki. After all is said, they were left speechless; their hearts ping with guilt and shame. Tadashi then tosses a small flash drive to Cora to which she catches it.*

Cora: What is it?

Tadashi: Its a copy of San Fransokyo's map. It has all the information of where Nozako's workers are stationed.

* Their eyes light up with a spark, a spark of chance. Cora especially felt it rise within her being. This is their chance! This is their ticket to finding out which areas are to avoided! Now her family would know which are safe and which are traps. And most importantly, they could figure out a way for Big Hero 7 to strike; But Hiro has another idea forming, with his brow furrowing with determination.*

Hiro: Tadashi, we will make sure that Nozako will never use you again!

*The young teen thought that it would make Tadashi rise in hope.. but the older brother's expression said otherwise.*

Tadashi: Hiro... there is no way to fight Nozako without getting all of us killed!

Hiro: B-But you gave us a map! This can help us plan ahead and find a way to-

Tadashi: You guys don't understand, Nozako is dangerously intelligent! Far more than you and Cora are when she was your age! Even if you give a written contract with the slightest detail checked and reviewed, she will find a way to exploit it even when its small! This map is just to let you know where to hide!

*Its there that the lights start blaring red, with Base-max speaking.*

Base-Max: Warning. Intruders had infultrated the-

*That is when the entire base shuts down, leaving them all in the dark. Its also that moment Tadashi recalled something crucial; Nozako had them chipped...meaning-*

Tadashi: *Softly in horror* What have I done?

Hiro and Cora: Tadashi?

Tadashi:... They found us!

*Is there that the doors are cut open via graphene blades to reveal their enemies, making the team start to power up their suits... Once the cut hole falls down, all four enter their base; first the Fujita Sisters, then Nikolas...and finally-*

Hiro: Diego Cruz?!

Diego: Hello Hiro.

Honey Lemon: How are you here? And why are you with them?!

Diego: Oh I don't know... maybe its because they 'rescued' me from a life time sentence in prison that you all sent me!

Wasabi: Sent you to prison?! That wasn't us!

Diego: *Glaring* It might as well will be you! All you supers are just the same! taking glory just because you dress in costumes and have all these powers that you think you're above the law?!

*The man's hand tightened around the blade, a blade that the team know too well who it belongs too.*

Nikolas: Lets make this quick, we have one more objective afterwards; finding our heir.

Fred: W-Well, what makes you think there is an heir?

*Nikolas hears the sound of steps where a fifth member comes in.. Lenny. Lenny smirks as he pulls out of his pocket a hologram of the news long ago..*

Nikolas: My Madame found a familiar image of her son holding someone close... So not only has Lord Mizuchi survived, he had sired an heir. We've spent months trying to figure out the identity of our heir so that we can bring her home at last.

*Cora continues to glare at the goons, her hands crackling faintly at the moment; but internally her heart and mind are frozen in horror. All those years of hiding are for naught... wasted on one small clip played in the after of the great catastrophe they had stopped... It was all her fault. The four close in on the group, ready to go down fighting till the bitter end.. but Cora sees two things that her team isn't aware. Tadashi is frozen still, his eyes widening in absolute fear.. something the Fujita sisters are all too happy about. The second thing is something she knew would change the course of their path... but she knew they would never risk hurting her if they know.*

Lenny: Enough rambling though, we want to make this quiet a show for our Madame. Then, our focus on the heir will be a piece of cake.

Cora: There is no need for this!

*Hearing Cora's voice, they turn to the young girl. Lenny smirks at the young teen, his eyes coy and merciless.*

Lenny: Are you honestly going to do a whole spiel about 'no need for fighting' because of some bullshit code about not harming patients? We don't intend of leaving survivors girl.

Cora: Its not that, that ship has sailed. We don't need to fight because you found the heir... and its me!

*To the teams' horror and Tadashi's shock, Cora removes her boot where her mark is put on display.*

Cora: I am Cora Mizichio! And I am your heir!

* Its there for the first that they goons are left speechless. This is their heir, their future leader of the clan?! But the one most shocked and livid of them all is Diego, growling low in fury as he realized what this is.*

Diego: So... *To Cora* you've already ruined my life even before I met you!... *louder* BECAUSE OF YOU I LOST MY WIFE!

Lenny: Quiet down you fool! You do not address my young mistress in such tone!

*Diego feels his whole frame shake in fury, just ready to disobey Lenny and lay his fury onto the girl; Nozako and her fury be dammed. Knowing what Lenny said earlier, Cora stands tall as her hands start to crackle with electricity as she shouts.

Cora: Grandmother! I know you're seeing this somehow!

Nozako: Hello my granddaughter.

*That voice got everyone to turn their heads and see with their very eyes... Madame Nozako Mizichio is standing in front of them in person as the goons kneel before her. Its there that Cora and the team got a good look on the woman, the very same woman who had haunted both Cora's father and uncle and hung as a looming, fearful shadow over their heads. Nozako in her late 60s standing tall and proud at a height of 6'2, her grey white hair tied to an elegant bun, her long claw-like nails painted black, and her skin pale as milk; features that years ago would dub the woman beautiful. Her attire attributed to her aura of shear power and dread as well; her black kimono with splashes of deep crimson complementing her skin, her cane of mahogany wood in between her hands to help her stand, and a black choker necklace with a gold medallion with the Mizichio symbol engraved to it... just like Momakase's own betrothal necklace.*

Nozako: It's so good to see you at last, so to speak. *Spots the flash drive* And you've gotten the plans Isamu had settled long ago..*Glares at Tadashi* I wonder how...*back to Cora with a smile* But you've grown strong overall. It seems your father had a reason to go to this dreadful place after all.

*Cora took this as the time to throw a stone at her, a piece left over from their earlier battle with monster Tadashi, to which she catches with unnerving ease, the sleeve rolling down a little to show the wires engraved to her body.*

Nozako: I see...

*The stone is reduced to mere rubble after Nozako crushed it with her bare hand. Even so, that does not shake Cora's resolve.*

Cora: I know... that's how this all began... You finally saw me!

Nozako: And a good thing to as well. Its one thing for your father to continue dragging out his little game of hide and seek... but its another to completely hide my grandchild for nearly 17 years. The clan needs an heir.

Cora: You want to experiment on me after killing my friends...that's what you want!

Nozako: Well yes. But do you know why, dear Cora?

Cora: *Finger tips crackling softly* Because you are a cruel, miserable, old hag!

*The workers of Nozako felt their eyes widened at such an insult directed, and for a moment they braced themselves... but instead.*

Nozako: *Chuckling in amusement* Well, that seems a little harsh. The reason overall is that as long as you cling to this pitiful city and these lesser beings you will never realize your potential and destiny back home with me.

*That is when at last, Hiro steps forward and goes in front of Cora. *

Hiro: Listen Nozako: Its best you leave now and never bother Cora or her family again-!

*While Hiro was speaking Nozako snapped her fingers and soon the Fujita Sisters got Hiro in a lock hold. Baymax and the entire team try to get Hiro and Cora but a gun shot from Nikolas missing them stills their place and making them watch.*

Nozako: *Glaring at Hiro* I have no interest in you boy. *To Cora* Now come along Cora, no time to daddle about. Its time we head home while my warriors handle this mess.. while setting up a long awaited return of your father.

*Cora is about to send her shocks to Nozako and the goons, ready to fight just as the others had. The old woman's voice made Cora's blood boil hearing her and seeing what kind of person she truly is... until a distant voice in her memories comes back, one that reminded her to be wary of not only what her actions can do to herself.. but to the people who love her... and so, Cora puts down her hands as the electricity dies down and her body relaxes. Finally, Cora looks at Nozako straight in the eye and speaks.*

Cora: How about we make a deal.

Nozako: *Eyebrow raising in interest* A deal?

Cora: Yes. We don't need to battle each other when the option of talking is present. Otherwise it would be a waste of time for you and I.

Nozako:... What exactly is this deal you are proposing my granddaughter?

Cora: Give me a year's end.. One year... and I will go to Sutamura willingly... and stay there so that I can lead our clan with your guidance...

Hiro: *horror* Cora no! You can't-

*His mouth is covered by the hand of the sister, making his protest unheard between the exchange of his girlfriend and the cruel vile woman.*

Nozako: That so? Well... I suppose that can be arranged..

Cora: There's more.. You and your goons will not attack Big Hero 7 and their secret identities, meaning you can't attack the city either. The workers that work in the variety of this city *Shows flash drive* cannot hurt my family and friends either. Finally, Tadashi stays. He can't work for you anymore.

*The old woman looks at Tadashi, her eyes holding restrained fury that sent the message that this is not over between them. Finally, she turns back to her granddaughter.*

Nozako: I can agree to all of that.. However... I am going to send you a gift, or more specifically gifts. Some to prepare you for your role as my heir... others are merely gifts because well, I never got a chance to spoil my granddaughter.

Cora:... So do we have a deal?

*Their hearts race as they look at Nozako and the goons, wondering what is to come next.*

Nozako:... *Holds out hand* Deal.

*Cora and Nozako shake hands for the first time, their grip firm and their eyes straight forward. Nozako lets go and turns her head to her goons.*

Nozako: We are done here. Let the boy go.

*The younger sister lets go, allowing Hiro to run to Cora. They all turn to walk away to the side, with Diego's eyes showing signs of growing rage now that he knows who Cora is and what he believed to be a heartless and callous family of liars; whereas Nozako takes one last glance at the blue haired maiden...and gave an ominous smile. Cora lets out a shake breath of relief once Nozako and the goons leave, making everyone else rush towards Cora.*

Hiro: Cora, what have you done?!

Honey Lemon: Why did you do that?

Wasabi: We should have fought them!

Gogo: What were you thinking?!

Miyuki: How would you deal with this mess?!

Baymax: Your neurotransmitters show that you are exhausted and drained.

*But admist their concerns, Cora and Tadashi remain silent, both in thought until Baymax speaks again.*

Baymax: It is 4 am. it is recommended that we all head home to rest.

Cora: No.. we need to tell my family... I'll explain everything when we get home.

*The Mizichio household is all abuzz as they found themselves panicking and unable to sleep when no sigh or message from Big Hero 7 had arrived. Kaguya had filled in the family over what has happened back at the beach, making them all paranoid. And if their situation wasn't bad enough, Cass had been calling them nonstop, asking if they had any news about their child and her nephew. And each hour that passed Cass continues to eat and worry about her nephew and the rest. Its there that they see them all in their super suits and their expression low. Mizuchi is the first to hug his daughter and Hiro tightly, expressing his relief until he sees his daughter's eyes.*

Mizuchi: Cora?.. what happened? Didn't you defeat the creature?

Hiro:We did.. in a way. But there's more..

*Its there that Tadashi enters the house, making every adult gasp in shock sans for Kaguya.*

Cora: And that's the least of it...its a long story...

*With everyone sat down the whole team recounted what had happened during their hours away and what Cora had ultimately done once they had met finally encountered Nozako.. and Cora's bargain. By the end of it every adult stared at Cora in horror. Kaguya covered her mouth with her hand as tears form in her eyes, Kage is staring at her as his mind becomes blank, Chara shaking in fear... and Mizuchi is limp as doll as he absorbs every word they had told them. Finally, Mizuchi speaks.*

Mizuchi: My little Cora, why did you that?! *Tears streaming* Why did you give up your life?!

*Cora says nothing, not even with Mizuchi hugs her tightly as he softly sobs. Hiro could only sit and watch Mizuchi cry, feeling as if he had failed as well. He wasn't enough to stop the goons or protect Cora... if Baymax was not giving him a hug from behind along with Tadashi being close to him he would had broke down in tears as well.*

Mizuchi: I am so sorry I am not enough to protect you...

Cora: *Choking slightly* It wasn't your fault papa... it was bound to happen anyway...

*After letting go, Cora turns to everyone as she takes in a long breath before speaking.*

Cora: Guys. I know the clear danger, and I know for certain Nozako will find a way to go around the deal... which is why I have a plan. A year would give me time to train, to learn how to fight and how to use my powers fully... I'm going to the island... but I am not staying there forever... Because I will be the one to kill Nozako Mizichio.

*Everyone looks at Cora as if she had grown a second head, unbelieving of Cora's response and her plan.*

Wasabi: Y-You're gonna kill her?

Honey Lemon: That's very extreme! And she's your grandmother!

Cora: She lost the right to be family long before I was born! She had hurt my father and uncle throughout their childhood, nearly killed Chara, and had shown that she will use brutal force to get what she wants!

Baymax: A violent confrontation will lead to injuries and if fatal, death.

Tadashi:.. That is true… but its our best chance as well.

*They all turn to Tadashi in surprise, his resolve stern and focused.*

Tadashi: I've seen Nozako and what she had done. Cora's right, she will hurt a lot of people just to get what she wants. And she will find a way to sneak around their deal without being detected or even pinned to her... If her death.. could save the lives of thousands, then its a plan that we have to take. I am tired of seeing her hurt everyone. And Cora and her family don't deserve to be torn apart just because of this witch!

*No one had seen Tadashi like this before and it scared them all for a moment. Tadashi had always kept his creed of someone has to help, but not resort to extreme violence. But its enough to tell them all that Tadashi will not allow Nozako to hurt everyone..and therefore side with Cora. The blue haired girl sighs before she turns to the gang.*

Cora: Guys, you don't have to be involved. You're not comfortable with that plan and I can see that. This isn't your battle and I will not force you to-

Gogo: What the hell are you talking about? We will help you fight this witch!

*the family blinked in surprise before the others chimed in.*

Fred: Along with the event being facing the final boss as Big Hero 7, she is clearly dangerous, and you need us more than ever.

Wasabi: You've been through so much already, so we should do what we can to help you.

Hiro: *To Cora* Besides, didn't you say we're in this together? Through hell and back?

Cora: Yeah... I did.

Hiro: Sides, she'll have to go over my dead body before she takes my girlfriend.

*Cora hugs Hiro tightly before kissing him, feeling their hearts rise in this promise and hope. Tadashi looks at Miyuki who looks at him back, feeling their hearts ping, to which Kaguya notices.*

Kaguya: Is there anything else you have to say Tadashi, Miyuki?

Tadashi: Hmm? Oh... um... *To Miyuki* So... I wanted to say this back at the showcase... but I was wondering if you would be interested.. interested that you want... that you want to get together?

*Miyuki looks at Tadashi with wide eyes to which Tadashi sheepishly looks away.*

Tadashi: *Softly to himself* Maybe I should have phrased that better-

*That's is when he felt a cold hand hold his warm one, making him look up to see Miyuki.*

Miyuki: Of course Tadashi. I love you too.

*In both Tadashi and Miyuki's mind and heart, their hope and happiness rise now that they had finally revealed what they had felt in the aftermath of this ordeal; a small piece of a future that they can now look forward too. With everyone else they are smiling and congratulating Tadashi and Miyuki, but soon enough the two Baymaxes(which for a moment confused Tadashi until Hiro suggests they tell him the story later) reminded them that they should sleep while Mizuchi contacts Cass to tell her that Hiro is safe.. but that he had found someone. The sun rises hours later and Cass had arrived in the early morning to pick up her nephew... only to see Hiro not only snuggled with Cora.. but her eldest nephew as well. Cass stood still for a moment, unbelieving of what she is seeing until Mizuchi pulls her aside and gave off their best story of what happened to Tadashi. And the following days were a humongous blurr of events; starting with Cass coddling Hiro and hugging her eldest nephew in a gigantic hug and then leading to Big Hero 7 talking to Commander Carter and Chief Atallah about what had happened... even sharing that Cora is the Clan's long lost heir. Both the commander and chief of police talked in private about all this, making the whole ordeal nerve wrecking for them all, especially the young couple. Finally, they came to a conclusion; Cora is not a threat and neither are her family, seeing how much they contributed to their service. So, its decided that they will still continue giving support to the team. They then carefully constructed a way to reveal to the public about Tadashi's survival without raising suspicions, promising to fill in Granville and others as soon as possible. Because of that reveal, the graduation ceremony plans had drastically changed. Because of the damage its clear to all that the ceremony will be shorter and not as grand in the past; in fact, a full graduation will have to wait for another full year. They did reach a compromise that if they still want to graduate, it will be a very small ceremony. Its there, that the gang made this conclusion; they know they are graduates, but wanted to wait for their chance to have their formal graduation because this time, Tadashi will join them. Tadashi made the choice to complete his education and so he can be with Hiro and Cora; and among the plans, Cora had finally decided on a song, a song for them all to sing, one of hope and strength. In the busying time, Kage is writing a particular resume, what is it for is unknown to all. That is when Chara comes to their room.*

Chara: Kage? Do you have a moment?

Kage: Yes, what is it?

Chara: I have been putting off telling you this because of.. well, events and other ideas. But now I believe its time to tell you.

Kage: What is it?

Chara:.. Last weekend Baymax noticed that I've been tired more frequently and been experiencing hormones' changes. Its there that Baymax told me this... I'm pregnant, Kage.

*Kage's heart and mind raced through emotions of joy, apprehension, fear, and utter happiness. He then kisses Chara passionately as he holds her close, to which the woman returns the favor. Finally they end their kiss.*

Kage: You think we should tell them now?

Chara: No. They've already been through a lot of news, both good and bad. Sides, Cora and her boyfriend and friends are going to host the graduation for them soon. We can wait till after.

Kage: If you say so my love.

*Soon enough the day had come. The whole building had been burned with its ashes present, and yet there was no aura of uncertainty or apprehension. This time its the official graduation ceremony. Most parents came along with some members of the police force to guard the ceremony, and yet there was this sense of calm. Chief Atallah stands tall among her officers, their badges shining brightly as they stand guard. Among the crowd is the students that want to get their graduation ceremony through, their families... and a few familiar faces. Wendy Wower is in attendance, along with Megan and Eduardo sitting next to Aunt Cass. To her opposite is Mizuchi, Chara, Kaguya, Miyuki, Baymax and Orso Knox. They had gone through the calling of names to get their diplomas and soon reach to Hiro's speech which will follow the song Cora had chosen. Hiro stands nervously as he fixes his tie before he catches a glimpse of Tadashi behind the curtain, mouthing out the word 'breath', to which succeeds in calming him down and start his speech.*

Hiro: Hi. I'm Hiro Hamada, course you already know that from last time... And during that last time, things had changed drastically. Last time, I thought that my brother's final message is all I can give you as we go through being someone's hero and make a difference. But I learned that its not just your legacy carried through what you have done for others. Its also what you do for yourself and each other as life throws many curve balls in your path. Tadashi helped me realize that we can be way more than we thought we'd be.. from my loved ones, I learned that you can overcome obstacles, that you cannot tolerate wounds inflicted on yourself and others, and that hope never goes away even in the darkest of times. I hope you can go forth knowing that you are way more than you thought you be now that we've gone through this ordeal. And for those that can't make it today, don't worry. It'll come, and I know that we can overcome it and become stronger than ever before. Speaking of which, I want to introduce you to our singer, and my girlfriend, Cora Mizichio.

*Cora takes a deep breathe as she grabs the mic and holds Hiro's hand tightly.*

Cora: Hi guys! With the recent events that happened, I chose a song to remind us all, that even when we face off the world, we are not alone. And this song proves it. Also, I have some guest singers with me! Hit it!

*The music plays and Cora taps her foot to begin her song as Hiro winks at her.*

Cora: We've done a lot! Faced who knows what? *Winks at Hiro* Still though we're not quite through yet. We have so much to do yet, more than a thing or two yet~

*The crowd begin to enjoy this song as Kaguya smiles.*

Cora: There's wounds we must heal, plans to make real! Watch us and we'll do wonders! Sure we might make some blunders...

*That is when the gang, hidden with Tadashi behind the curtain wait for their cue as they smile at Cora's performance.*

Cora: We'll face them all head on!~ We'll rise hand in hand and rebuild this land! We're ready to stand and more! Will we give up? No never! We're stronger than ever before!~

*With that, the gang get in cue as Fred and Wasabi get up and join in the song.*

Fred: We've made mistakes!

Wasabi: Had some bad breaks!

Fred and Wasabi: That only makes us tougher!~

Wasabi: Now when the road get's rougher~

Fred: Frankly, we'll barely suffer!

Honey Lemon: *Joining in* Cause though we've been burned, what have we learned?

Fred and Wasabi: Victory's earned not given!

Cora: We shape the world we live in!

Fred, Honey Lemon, and Wasabi: We're what we'll build upon!~

*That is now that the whole group join in the song, even with Gogo joining in just for the sake of this song.*

Gang: The war may be won but still we're not done! We've only begun to soar~!

Gogo: Bolder~

Hiro: And far more clever~

Gang: And stronger than ever before!

*That is when in a move reminiscent of a musical, Tadashi sings along on the backstage with Miyuki singing too. Its also there that Hiro and Cora sneak off to get a surprise from behind, for all of them.*

Tadashi: There's miles yet to go~

Miyuki: How far we don't know~

Tadashi and Miyuki: But we can do so much more!~

*Its there that they got their surprise. Baymax 1 had managed to dress up in his original super suit signed as a guest star, or at least that's the excuse Chief Atallah gave, as he flies with Hiro and Cora on his back.*

Cora: Onto the next endeavor~!

Gang+Tadashi and Miyuki: We're stronger than ever!

Cora: *Holding Hiro close* We'll never say never!~

Hiro: We're stronger *Cora joins in* Than ever before!~

*And all of it is true. They all have become stronger than ever before; now that they have grown through their losses and victories, ready to prepare for their future, both as people and as Big Hero 7.*

A.N: This is easily the longest chapter I've written in a while! Now, I apologize that this turkey took this long to cook but remember, I had classes and a test to worry about. And now with a certain virus on board I had time to edit and plan this chapter. I know this is a major change up from the canon season, but I know what direction this is going. and if a curveball is sent, I do my best to work through it! I hope the wait is worth it! And thank you all for following and reading Big Hero 7: The series! Love you all and stay safe!
