Hello, nice to meet you all. MoonfireHikari here.

As I had stated, this story is an AU, though it happens following the event of the movie, duh...
I added up about Aunt Cass knew about their career and almost the whole city does. They are paid monthly, like a paycheck for what they did. Well, they only claimed it when they need the money. I will explain more as the story progress. Do give it a read, please.

Enjoy!

Chapter 1

"Hiro, he's getting away!" a familiar voice, one of the superheroines, warned her leader.

"Got it, Gogo!" Hiro replied, rushing onto Baymax 2.0, who had his back ready for him.

They rushed in with Baymax's thrusters. Stopping in front of their target, the burglar didn't know what to do. He turned back only to find the other members of the all-time superheroes had caught up to him. He held out a knife towards Hiro and Baymax, breathing frantically.

"That's the end of the line!" the one in green, who goes by the nickname Wasabi, said.

"Yeah, turn yourself in…or we can do that for you," Hiro said with a sly smile.

He got off Baymax's back. The latter informed that he had already called the police. The knife was dropped and so was the one holding it. The burglar fell to his knees when he heard that. He gave small chuckles as he stood in the middle of the gang. The police soon arrived, taking the man into custody. An old woman, who had fallen victim to the burglar, thanked them, and so did the police.

"Good work, guys. Now let's go back to Aunt Cass. She must be worried sick," Hiro said, sighing in the process.

"By the way, where's Honey?" Wasabi asked, turning to Gogo.

Chewing on her chewing gum like always, she replied, "She's been out scouting a helper for Aunt Cass."

Hiro, surprised to hear his aunt's name, asked, "Aunt Cass needs a helping hand? Why?"

"Why don't you ask her…?" Gogo replied.

They reached Hiro's garage and changed their attire. Gogo fixed her hair, chewing on another chewing gum. Hiro's garage had a little change after he was reunited with Baymax and the Big Hero 6 was back in the city. They added a round coffee table and four chairs at the right corner of the place, near his red sofa. It was where they had their meetings and discussions, apart from their lab at SFIT, which stayed as theirs, in honor of them as heroes. Hiro sat on his sofa while the others took their seats. Baymax stood beside him. They waited for Honey to come.

Hearing the tapping of platform heels, they expected a, "Hi, guys!"

They turned to the owner of the voice. Honey grinned as she stepped into the garage.

"Did you find one?" Fred asked.

"Kind of…she's undergoing a simulation of sort right now, but Aunt Cass seems to like her," Honey replied, knowing what his question meant.

"I'm starving and I think I would have a donut or two," Hiro announced, getting up.

"Hiro, you forgot about me," Baymax suddenly interested.

Stopping at the entrance, he turned around, laughed it off and said, "I'm satisfied with my care, Baymax. Thanks for helping out today."

Baymax shrunk back into his luggage. Wasabi took it with him. The group decided to have a cup of coffee before going home. They entered the café through the front door. It was a bit remote that day with only a couple of customers, who were minding their own business, presented. A brown haired girl, at about Hiro's age, welcomed them. Of course, she hardly knew them, which was why she welcomed them as customers. The older members turned to Hiro. The boy was oblivious of what they were trying to make him understand.

Sighing, Gogo said, "Aunt Cass, we're back…from saving the world…"

Hearing that, the frizzy brown haired woman who was busy by the counter, turned to them. "Oh, welcome back! Alicia, don't mind them. They're my regulars…and Hiro's best friends."

Alicia nodded to Aunt Cass. "I'm sorry, I didn't know," she muttered and rushed back to the counter.

The five made their way to their regular spot, in the middle the café, the center of attention. Gogo, Wasabi, Fred and Honey told Aunt Cass that they wanted the usual – a cup of coffee and a plate of their favorite donut, each. They turned to look at Hiro to ask him what he wanted but he was busy eyeing something.

"Hiro, what do you want to order?" Honey asked, startling the boy.

He snapped his head to her and stuttered, "Huh? What? ...O-Oh, r-right! I'd like the usual, too."

The four nodded to him with Honey giggling, Gogo chuckling, Wasabi smirking and Fred grinning. Hiro was confused at their expressions.

"What's up, guys?" he asked.

"No, nothing at all, big boss," Wasabi replied.

"Stop calling me that…" Hiro huffed, "By the way, are you guys going to collect your pay any soon?"

Fred laid back in his chair and said, "I don't think I need it. My allowance is more than my pay. I feel like I'm doing this for charity."

"I don't feel like collecting it yet…" Gogo replied short.

"Yeah, me too. I can manage with what I have now, so…not yet, I guess," Wasabi was next to reply.

Honey pondered for a while before answering, "I think I would, but only half of it. I mean, they're paying because we save the world. I'd feel guilty if I'm not doing it."

"S-Sorry to keep you w-waiting," Alicia interrupted them.

All five pairs of eyes were on her. She was flustered as it was her first time talking to them, the Big Hero 6. She placed the tray on the side of the table. Her hands were shaking as she served what was on the tray. Aunt Cass had the orders delivered on a tray so that it would take less time to finish the orders. Hiro stared at her gold eyes. They seemed very distant and mysterious.

"Uhh…" he started, getting up, "L-Let me help you with that."

"N-No, it's okay…I'm fine…" she drawled as she placed the last cup on the table.

"Thank you," Honey said to her.

She gave a small smile and rushed back to the counter. Hiro's usual was a cup of milk tea and his Oreo donut. His order was the last to come. When, Alicia served them, Hiro kept on staring at her.

"Umm…t-that's all, right?" she asked the group.

"Hmm…let's see. I have my milk coffee and my classic donut… Yeah, that's perfectly everything," Gogo nodded and replied.

Alicia nodded once and muttered that she should be going. Honey stopped her. She invited her to join them, or at least let her introduce the rest of the members.

"I practically know all of you, since you are very popular…as superheroes, that is…" the young girl muttered.

"But you've never met us in person like this before…right?" Honey asked, staring into her eyes.

Hugging the tray and looking down on the floor, she slowly nodded. Honey smiled.

"Hi! The name's Fred. The one who wears the cool Kaiju suit," Fred said, jumping excited in his chair.

He extended his hand to shake with hers. She shook hands with him.

"I'm Wasabi…that's what they call me," Wasabi said, short.

"I'm Gogo…that's my nickname," Gogo said, shaking hands with her.

There was a brief silence after her turn. Hiro was still staring at Alicia. She widened her eyes a bit, knowing that she was being observed. The other four looked at him. Gogo popped her chewing gum before elbowing Hiro. The boy turned to her and eyed all of his team members. He looked at Alicia and then, back at them. Wasabi made an eye gesture to signal Hiro that it was his turn for introduction.

"Oh!" Hiro exclaimed, getting what he meant.

"I'm g-guessing I should be going…" Alicia suddenly muttered.

Hiro stood up again and called, "W-Wait…! I haven't introduced myself yet. I-I'm Hiro, Hiro Hamada. I'm Aunt Cass' nephew."

"I knew that…" the girl replied.

Slapping his forehead, he chuckled nervously, "Of course…you knew that…heh…"

His breathing was a bit frantic and he looked quite jumpy, holding his pants' pockets once in a while. Alicia gave out a soft chuckle from his reactions.

"Well…my name's Alicia," she said, turning to all of them, "Alicia Koizumi. I'm 16…and I will be working here after school until 7 o'clock and on Sunday…"

"Ohh…" the grouped muttered in unison, excluding Honey and Hiro.

"She's a girl I knew from a friend. She goes to San Fransokyo High. I heard that she was looking for a job and since Aunt Cass wants someone to help her out…I just scouted her," Honey explained.

Alicia excused herself when the group went off topic from talking about her to discussing about work. They told Hiro how he should get an upgrade and combat lessons since he was getting quite tall for riding on Baymax. Hiro protested that he had only grew half an inch since the team was reformed. They laughed at his statement, telling him that he was still the shortest of them all. Honey suddenly remembered something amidst the laughing.

"By the way, when I was picking her up at her house, there were people talking about a murder which happened last night," she said.

"A murder? The police didn't say anything when we caught the burglar just now," Hiro said, confused.

"Well, they thought it was a murder since the person who was dead showed no sign of suicide when they last saw him," the blonde explained.

"Hmmm…it'd be worth investigating if it is true. What did the police say?" Wasabi asked.

"Well…the throat was sliced, exactly all the way to the trachea," Honey said, from what she had heard.

"Hmm…that is just weird. I mean, what is the killer's motive of killing that man?" Gogo was next to speak up.

Hiro simply said, "We don't know if it's true and if it is true, then we'd have to ask this killer his or her reason."

Alicia put on her coat and got her things from behind the counter. Aunt Cass was cleaning up a table and Hiro was doing the dishes. He tried his best not to look at her. It didn't bother her at all. She turned to Aunt Cass when she reached the doorknob.

"I'll be going now, Miss Hamada," she announced.

"Oh, I told you to call me, Aunt Cass," the woman protested and sighed, "Okay. Thanks for today and see you tomorrow."

Alicia nodded. She exited the place. Aunt Cass gave Hiro the last dishes to be washed for the day. She laughed when she saw he was eyeing the window of the café.

"What's up with you?" she asked, scooting her way beside him to wipe the plates and cups.

"Oh..n-nothing…I was j-just…thinking…ab-about something…" he drawled, continuing his work.

Smiling, the aunt said, "It doesn't seem like something to me. So…what do you think of her?"

"Huh? What? Who?" he stammered, looking at his aunt.

"Alicia…who else?" Aunt Cass stated.

Widening his eyes, he shook his head and shrugged. "She's good. I mean, she's hardworking and very nice with the customers and… She's good," he pattered.

He backed away after the last plate was washed, almost tripped over Mochi the cat and chuckled nervously. He announced that he was going to bed and rushed upstairs before Aunt Cass could throw another question on him about Alicia. The aunt giggled by herself at his attitude.
