We all take a seat on the floor with a wooden table in front of us.

I watch the sap being poured from a kettle into our empty cups. I swish the sap around in the cup almost like copper colored glue. “Eugh.” I am not drinking this.

“Listen, our friend-”

Fred cuts Hiro off again, “Quick question, have you ever seen the Hibagon?”

I groan, “Fred!” I blink when three mice pop out from Ned's beard and he feeds them crumbs while he's thinking.

“Hibagon….um let me think on that….” When the mice disappear back into his beard, he sit up suddenly and yells out, “BOO!” He laughs crazily and gestures to himself, “You're looking at him?”

I facepalm when Fred becomes extremely shocked, “Whaaaaaat?!” He points at Ned.

“I like people to thinking there's a big'ol boogeyman lurking in the wood.” Ned holds up a newspaper article of the Hibagon Strikes. “Keep those dum dums away.”

Fred seems a little uneasy now, “Sure. Yeah, that explains a lot actually.”

Hiro holds up his phone and it still buzzed and glitched.

Ned shakes his head at it, “Technology. Humanity's worst idea ever.”

I frown and push my cup away, “That's not true. Some technology is good. It helps people.”

Ned scoffs after getting more sap, “Helps. Technology doesn't help people.” He holds out the kettle to Fred, “More sap?” He pours into Fred's cup even if he didn't say yes.

“Speaking of help. We really need yours. Okay, our friend is lost in the woods and we need to find him.” Hiro gets out before anything else interrupts.

Ned has a blank look and stands up before walking out. We were confused until he pops his head around the corner with an excited expression, “What are y'all doin just sitting there? Let's go!”

Immediately we follow him and head out into the woods. This time Ned was helping and he did what he did. You know, sniffing the ground then licking the dirt before continuing on.

Fred began to do the same thing, but took in more dirt into his mouth and hacking. “Quick question, what exactly am I supposed to be tasting? Because I'm picking up the faintest hint of…..dirt? Yeah definitely mostly dirt.”

I pull him up, “You'll figure it out later Fred. Let's just get on with finding Baymax.”

Ned stops at a big bush and examines a small broken twig. He uses his staff to push back the bush.

I felt relief and grin when I see Baymax sitting on the ground in a flower bed.

“Good doggie.” Baymax says and pets a bundle of flowers in his hand.

“BAYMAX!” I run up with Hiro and we engulf him into a hug.

“Nice kitties.” Baymax pets our heads.

I feel so much better that Baymax is okay though I did not like the sound of Ned's upset voice and we look over to see him fluff his hair up again.

“Your friend is a robot?!”

Hiro tries to reason with him, but I know that's not going to work. “A good robot. He helps people.”

Ned back up into the bushes, “No such animal as a good robot.” He disappears.

I turn away and keep my eye on Baymax while looking around. Ned is tricky and no doubt he'll plan something in an instant.

“Is he trying to scare us because mission accomplished.” Fred states and completely scared.

“You know what I think?” Ned's voice echoes around us and I keep my guard up, “I'm gonna blew him over a cliff. That's what good ol Bessie would want me to do.”

This guy is really making me mad because no one threatens Baymax. A vine lassos onto Baymax's leg and yanks him away. “Goodbye.” Baymax says.

“Baymax!” We start to run and I noticed something coming up from the ground. A trap.

I lunge forward without thinking and roll away before realizing that it was a net. “Baymax!” I run after him and I ignore Fred and Hiro who were most likely caught in the net. I need to stop him.

“Hey, Weird Beard! Why not let us leave with our robot and we'll never come back?!” I spot Baymax laying on the ground, but I stumble back when Ned appears to block my way.

“Because, ya dum dums don't realize technology is bad and robots are the start of the end, so I will take them all down one at a time. Nobody will stop me.”

I try to turn on my nano tech, but it still glitched out and groan out in frustration. “Come on! Work!”

“You're A ROBOT?!”

My face pales. Oh no. I notice my tech made me look like I was robot from my arms and chest. “No, I'm not. This is just how far technology has come, just let us leave peacefully- Whoa!” I hold up my arms to block the wooden staff. Suddenly, my feet is kicked from the ground and I land on my stomach. “Ow.” I groan, feeling rope being tied to my wrists.

I shake the dizziness away and see I'm being dragged next to Baymax. I struggle to pull apart the rope. Stupid Bessie, messing with my tech and Baymax.

“Completing comprehensive health prof-file-file-file. My scan indicates that you are pregnant-pregnant-pregnant.” Baymax still wasn't working right. I really need to get him out of here.

I try my nanotech again and try to form a sharp edge, but it kept turning on and off.

Ned tsks in disappointment, “Robots. Good for nothin’.” He glares at us only to spot something behind us and his eyes widen. “No! The wood!” He jumps away and leaves us there on the hill.

I sit up and see something smoking off in the distant. I'm guessing that's Hiro.

“And dairy sensitive.” Baymax finishes his diagnostic protocol. “Oh.”

I managed to put my tied hands in front of me and use my teeth to pull at the knot. It came undone and- “Not now.”

A moose stood up on the hill and starts running full speed at us. I couldn't out run that! I shut my eyes and cling to Baymax, but nothing happened. A big puff of air blows onto my face and I peak a little.

The moose stood there and waited.

Huh.

I sniff my clothes. Ew. I smell so bad.

“I am a chu-chu train.” Baymax says innocently.

“Baymax, help me up.” We get onto the moose and I do hope this moose understands what I'm saying. “Uh….okay, let's go?” I gently pat it's head.

It takes off running and I yell, holding its antlers. Ned is so going to get it. I am still mad about what he was going to do to Baymax. The moose slowed down after smelling something and walks through a bush.

“Hiro!” I smile at the boy genius who held his hands up like he was going to be attacked.

“(Y/n)?” He smiles more, “Baymax! You guys are okay!”

I hear some commotion going on and it sounded like the gang had caught up. “Get on.”

Hiro gets on behind Baymax and I pat the moose again. Hiro explained that everyone was trying to trap Ned and told me where they were planted. So far, it seems like it didn't work. We go through another bush and scare Ned.

He steps back and falls into a hole. “Wah!”

Fred cheers, “Got him!”

“Choo-choo.” Baymax says before sliding off the moose.

Me and Hiro get off too and help Baymax to sit up. I get in front of Baymax protectively when I see Ned climb out of the hole.

“Wait, no! He's still after us.” Fred panics.

“Hello.” Baymax waves at Ned and his head twitches from glitching out.

Ned went to charge at us, but Gogo came from behind a tree and throws a bola at his legs, entangling them together. He falls into another hole and enable to get back out.

“Ha ha! Told you we needed three!” Fred points to all the holes.

We all look in and Ned is rubbing his arm painfully, “Ooooh. My extremity.” He glares up at us.

I hate to say it, but he did deserve it.

“If you can help us get Baymax away from the meteorite. He can fix your arm.” Hiro calls down to Ned.

When Wasabi, Fred, and Gogo help Ned out. He leads us out of range of Bessie though me and him are glaring at each other while Baymax takes a look at his arm.

“Your arm should heal in three or six weeks.” Baymax states while using a cloth to make a cast.

Ned shifts his gaze to Baymax, “What's your endgame robot? Enslave the human race.” He looks back to me and pokes his wooden staff on my chest, “World domination.”

I grab it while the nanotech activates, covering my arm and chest before I snap the wood in half.

Fred whispers to the others, “I'm telling you. It's pubescent mood swings.”

Gogo frowns at Fred and shakes her head.

Baymax blinks at Ned, most likely not understanding what he meant. “Apply ice to reduce swelling.”

Hiro facepalms at Fred and turns to smile a bit at Ned, “See. Not all technology is bad.”

Ned snorts and stands up, pulling out another staff from out of nowhere, “You're a fool if you think that's true. Technology will be the downfall of us all! Just you wait.” He flips up into the trees, disappearing and leaving his voice echoing, “No get out of my wood!”

I yell out, “You know! You could have said THANK YOU!”

“Yeah! Instead of doing that creepy echoey thing!” Wasabi shouts a little.

I really do hope we can get out of here now. Next time, I am definitely going to try to avoid anything like this again, especially dealing with the woods. I wonder if Heathcliff is looking for us….or if he's okay. “We should head back and check Heathcliff.”

Fred gasps, “Heathcliff must be worried sick.”

This time we follow Gogo who lead the way back to the path and to the entrance where we started. I just now realize Hiro hasn't spoken to me for awhile and I glance at him.

He looks okay, but I couldn't tell since he was quiet.

The limo and Gogo's motorbike is in view now and we all walk to the limo. Inside we see Heathcliff is asleep in the hot tub and completely relaxed.

“Aw. Don't wake him. He looks so peaceful.” Fred smiles.

I'm looking through the window with Baymax while the others are peeking in through the door. I step away and move my gaze to the night sky.

“Hey.”

Gogo. I look at her as she leans on the limo next to me.

“Hey, Gogo. Sorry about causing so much trouble today.” I smile a bit.

She shrugs, “It wasn't your fault. I know those two knuckleheads dragged you into it. I'm just glad you guys are safe.” She smile softly and pulls out her keys, “Let me take you home this time. I'm pretty sure you want have alone time from the boys.”

I chuckle and feel her gently punch my arm. I stare at her bike and gulp. I've never been on something like it before, except the moped, but Tadashi always drove safely.

Well, I guess this will be my first time riding a sportbike. I get on behind Gogo and hug her from behind as she puts on her helmet.

“(Y/n)! Wait.” Hiro jogs over and seems a little uneasy at the bike, “You know, it's more safer in the limo and I really am sorry for dragging you here. I didn't expect all of this to happen.”

How can someone stay upset at him? That would be me. Curse my over sized heart! I try to resist his guilty expression, but I cave in. “It's okay, Hiro, but next time. You might want to listen to all of us if we don't agree on something.” I grin, “Besides, I think Gogo's wrath is good enough punishment, yeah?”

Hiro blinks and laughs nervously, “Y-yeah.”

I shake my head and hold out my fist. “Night, Hiro.”

“Night, (Y/n).” He smiles warmly and bumps my fist with his.

I wave to the rest of the gang and Gogo takes off. I loved how everything looked when we went fast though I got a little scared when we made sharp turns.

Soon, my apartment comes into view and Gogo parks on the side.

“Thanks for the ride, Gogo.”

“Eh, not a big problem for me and hey, I'm teaching Baymax how to roller skate tomorrow. Wanna join?” Gogo leans on her bike.

Okay, tough question and that reason being? “Sure, but just to let you know. I never skated before.” I chuckle sheepishly. Why is she grinning?

“All the more fun. I think I've got a pair of old skates for you to wear. See you tomorrow, (Y/n) and make sure to take a shower.” She drives off.

Gogo wasn't lying. I really do need to take a shower. I head inside and right when I close the door, Karmi just has to talk.

“Your boyfriend's on the phone. It's getting annoying that he's called for the last 20 minutes.”

I barely catch my phone that she tossed at me and don't bother checking the caller ID. “I don't have a boyfriend! Maybe you need one.”

Karmi huffs, “I would if they were real.”

I roll my eyes, “Hello?”

“Are you home yet?”

Of course, it was Hiro. “Yes, I'm home and now if you'd let me enjoy the rest of my night. I am going to take a shower.”

“Well, I can tell you're still moody.”

“Are you still asking for the reasons why?” I say in annoyance.

“No. No. I'll leave you to your business.” With that he hangs up quickly.

Now for long and relaxing shower.
