Disclaimer: I do not own Big Hero 6 or the Incredibles.

AN: Did anyone else see Incredibles II?! It was AMAZING! There were some small points I felt personally didn't work as well, but overall it is everything the first movie was. WATCH IT! I might actually incorporate it here for any future ideas for this story I might have :)

Thank you to Guest and IronPen1991 for reviewing!

Chapter 4:

Tadashi blinked, colours and lines swarming his vision. He blinked again, trying to focus on them, and partially succeeding. He blinked once more, and his vision cleared. Looking around, he tried to place where he was.

He was in a bed, that was for certain. He had a blanket pulled to his chest, his right arm ached and was bandaged, but that was all the damage that had been done to him. But there was something wrong with his head, with his face. He could feel it.

There was a rustle next to him, and Tadashi belatedly recognised that there was someone there. He turned, half-expecting it to be Aunt Cass or his friends or Hiro, but he met an equally friendly face.

Violet.

"Violet." He rasped.

Violet poured him a glass of water and carefully fed it to him, shoulders hunched and tensed. When she set the glass down, she took a deep breath. Tadashi noticed the red rims of her eyes. Had she been crying?

"What were you thinking?" Violet asked in a low voice. "Running in there like that?"

"Callaghan was still in there." Tadashi immediately answered. His eyes widened. "The professor! Did…did they get him out? What happened?"

Violet sighed, rubbing a face over her hand. "They haven't found a body, but there was no way that anyone could've survived that explosion."

Tadashi looked down, tears prickling at the edge of his eyes. He had failed. He had failed at saving his professor, the one person who seemed so much like a father-figure for him. A small hand covered his, and Tadashi looked up to see Violet's concerned eyes.

"I'm sorry, Tadashi." She whispered.

"It's fine." Tadashi sighed, feeling a leaden weight on his chest. "I just…I wished I could've saved him." He remembered that night, with the fire and the metal beam falling down, and the superhero. The superhero. The superhero, with the very…familiar…face.

Tadashi's eyes widened as he froze, and he felt Violet's hand squeeze his. "What's wrong, Tadashi?"

"You saved me." He whispered.

"What?" Violet leaned closer, not understanding.

"You saved me." Tadashi repeated. He looked up at Violet, whose eyes were also wide. "You…you're a super. You're one of them."

"I-I…" For once in her life, Violet didn't actually know what to say. She had always avoided people until she felt confident enough to talk to them, but she didn't have that luxury now. "Tadashi, you were in that building, I don't know…"

"I saw you." Tadashi insisted, gripping her hand. He looked at her, expression earnest and so so confused. "Why…why are you lying to me?"

"I'm not, I just…" Violet's mind was whirring. She shouldn't tell him. She couldn't. If she did, he'd be in trouble. She'd be in trouble, and Rick Dicker would have to come and erase his memory, and that meant that she would never ever see him again and why was her face wet she was not crying dammit

"Vi?" Tadashi whispered. He lifted his hand to her face. "You can trust me."

Violet hugged him tightly, trying to get her crying under control as the full extent of what could happen finally clicked in her mind. Tadashi stroked her hair, wondering why she was acting this way, and hurt that she wouldn't trust him enough…he loved her. Why would she lie to him?

"I can't tell." Violet mumbled. "I can't." She hiccuped. "If I did, I'd have to move. I'd have to."

Tadashi felt like a hand was crushing his heart. She couldn't. He couldn't remember a time when he was so happy as the time that Hiro had been born, and when he had first met Violet. When he had met Violet, it was like something had clicked in him. They had gotten along so well, and their dates had gone so well and they were just perfect together. "They'll try." he breathed to her. "They won't succeed though."

Violet let out a watery laugh.

They sat there in silence for a while, before Tadashi finally whispered. "So you are a super?"

"Yeah." Violet whispered back.

Tadashi laughed. "Fred's going to be over the moon when he finds out."

"…let's keep it between us for now."
