Possible Hero 6
Tumblr media
Evening folks Chapter 4 is here, sorry for the unfortunate delay I’ve been a little occupied with uni work. Plus I’ve been to see the Sonic the Hedgehog film, loved it loved the references and the action scenes, it defiantly deserves a sequel heck the games could learn from some aspects of it. Now without further delay heres chapter 4 of Possible Hero 6
I don't own the characters in this story this is just for fun! 
Kim Possible & Big Hero 6 (c) Disney, 2020
Chapter 4: Train up Hero style!
Things couldn’t be any worse for Big Hero 6 not only did their mystery villain thief AKA Shego escaped from them, twice and Momokase escaping as well with her intentions unknown. Now they return to Hiro’s garage to find Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable waiting for them, this could only mean one thing. 
“Hiro?” Hiro said but then coughed and straightened up. “Sorry Miss, uh Possible but I have no idea what your talking about.” He then acted. 
“Yeah, Ki.. uh, complete stranger who we have only met once at the…”
“Okay drop the poor acting Fred.” Kim said interrupting Fredzilla. 
“You, mean you…” Wasabi guessed. 
“Wasabi, Honey Lemon, Gogo, Fred Frederickson, Hiro Hamada and of course Baymax.” Kim pointed to each member of the team in a Batman like style which confirmed that she knew their secret identities. 
Everyone looked at each other in worry wondering what this could mean for the teams future. 
“Oh guys it’s so not the drama, your secrets safe with me.” Kim then assured. 
So one by one each member of BH6 removed their helmets/masks revealing their true identities and Honey Lemon put her glasses back on her face. 
“So how’d you know it was us?” Hiro asked. 
“Well for starters when I first saw Big Hero 6 and the tech they were using I could see that it looked a lot similar to each of your friends majors.” Kim began to explain. “Chemistry, mag lev suspension, laser induced plasma and of course Freds super hero theme all applied with the use of robotics, which with Hiro being a super genius could engineer.”
The team listened with interest and Ron as always was impressed by Kim’s deductive skills. 
“Plus when you told me that robot gauntlet was a souvenir from Alister Krei I could tell by your micro expressions that you were lying.” Hiro could only rub his neck in embarrassment as Gogo glared.
“And the final thing being, Tadashi’s death, his connection to the fire at SFIT and Professor Callaghan AKA Yokai. The fact being that Big Hero 6 appeared during his attack on Krei tech that day. Plus the coloured visors they’re terrible identity concealers.” Kim finished.
Everyone’s jaws dropped with amazement how could she have put together all the dots in such a way to find out their identities.
“Wow very impressive.” Gogo said with a raised eyebrow.
“Yeah told you she could do anything.” Ron added.
“Yeah that and being the daughter of a rocket scientist and brain surgeon doesn’t hurt.” Kim then added. 
“But I’m surprised that you were obviously followed all the way here and didn’t even notice, you’ve got to work on your security training.” 
“Wow, we do need to keep our eyes open or we’ll be blind.” Said a drunk Baymax. 
“Uh is he okay?” Ron asked. “Uh yeah he’s just low on batteries.” Hiro explained. 
Soon Baymax was out of his armour and on his charging station recharging his batteries. He begins to reinflate as he recharges. Meanwhile the rest of the team talk things over with Team Possible. 
 “So, now that you know are you going to tell my aunt Cass about this?” Hiro asked with worry. 
“No I’m....” “it’s just if she ever found out about this she’d literally put me under house arrest she worries a lot like a lot and.” Hiro said interrupting Kim. 
“Hiro!” Kim said getting his attention. “I’m not going to tell anyone about your identities.” 
“Oh.” Hiro said. “Actually when I first heard about Big Hero 6 I started doing some research I’ve seen the work you’ve done to help people and I’m pretty impressed how you’ve handled supervillains and kept the city safe.” Kim explained.
“But I do want to know why you decided to become super heroes in the first place?” She then asked. “Yeah I mean every super hero has a cool origin story.” Ron added as Rufus nodded his head.
Hiro took his time to answer but knew that since Kim and Ron now knew who they were that it was time to share why they do what they do. 
“Tadashi.” Hiro said then turned his attention to Baymax. “Show them Baymax.” 
Baymax’s chest monitor then lit up and began showing his video logs of Hiro’s brother building Baymax. 
“This is Tadashi Hamada.” He said introducing himself. Kim and Ron looked at the screen as did the rest of the team. 
“And this is the first test of my robotics project.” Tadashi then said holding up a black board with the words test 1 on it and he began testing his invention. 
“Hello, I am Baymax.....” Suddenly Baymax’s voice generated feedback which nearly deafens Tadashi. 
“Stop, stop stop stop!” Tadashi said as he quickly shut Baymax off. 
Kim saw who exactly this was whilst Ron was all but puzzled. However he saw the looks on the faces of everyone watching the video and could see some of them were happy and nearly brought to tears by the sight of this. 
“So is that...” “Yeah that’s Tadashi.” Hiro answered Rons question. 
The footage then moved onto the next entry log of the tests. 
“The seventh test of my robotics project.” Tadashi announced. He then activated Baymax to test him again. 
“Hello, I am Baymax.” Baymax said but suddenly began punching Tadashi with his inflated hands his left hand then flew off like a balloon quite literally. 
Tadashi held onto Baymax to try and get him to stop. 
“Wait wait stop scan stop!” Tadashi exclaimed. 
The next log showed Tadashi was completely exhausted, with bags under his eyes completely sleep deprived. 
“Tadashi Hamada again, and this is the thirty third test of my robotics project. He then said tired out.
Suddenly there was a spark and it completely took out the lights in his lab rendering leaving him in complete darkness. 
Tadashi then shines a torch  and looks over his creation though he was looking doubtful of making it work he wasn’t one to quit. 
“I’m not giving up on you.” Tadashi sighed. “You don’t understand this yet but people need you, so let’s get back to work.” Tadashi said shutting down Baymax to begin testing again. 
Kim just looked at the video in awe, she knew that Hiro’s brother built Baymax but didn’t know he saw difficulties doing it he persisted not giving up. She had to admit she was starting to admire him. 
The footage then moved to the next log it was the afternoon and Tadashi was looking a little tired after working hard through the night. 
“This is Tadashi Hamada, and this is the 84th” Tadashi sighed before continuing. “Test, what do you say big guy?” 
Tadashi activates Baymax and waits for another fault. 
“Hello, I am Baymax your personal healthcare companion.” Baymax said. 
Tadashi could only look in complete shock and surprise to see that his creation was operational and working. 
“It works.” He breathed. “IT WORKS!” Tadashi then shouted. ‘This is amazing! You, you work!” He said kissing Baymax in joy dancing with delight and excitement. 
“I knew it I knew it I knew iiiit!” He squealed. “You work I can’t believe it!” 
Ron nudged Kim’s shoulder and saw that there was a lone tear running down Hiro’s face and they could tell that he missed his brother. 
“Alright, alright big moment here.” Tadashi said as he stepped back ready for the biggest test of all. 
“Scan me.” Tadashi said and Baymax did as he was asked. 
“Your Nero transmitter levels are elevated, this indicates that you are happy.” Baymax diagnosed. 
“I am I really am.” Tadashi said in joy. “Oh man, wait till my brother sees you, your going to help so many people buddy.” 
Honey Lemon hugged Gogo slightly whilst Wasabi put a hand on Fred’s shoulder. 
“So.. many, that’s all for now, I’m satisfied with my care.” Tadashi said with a smile. The recording then ended and there was a minute of silence before Hiro broke it. 
“He wanted to help a lot of people, he cared, that’s why he worked so hard to create Baymax.” Hiro said gesturing you his robot friend. 
“So you became superheroes to, honour his memory?” Ron asked. 
“Well it didn’t really start that way at first, we did this to just catch the guy responsible for his death.” Hiro explained as the rest of his friends came over. 
“But after we saved everyone at Krei tech then after I enrolled at SFIT and stopping an army of rouge Baymaxes.” Hiro said. Kim could see where this was going. 
“The last thing that Tadashi ever said to me was, someone has to help.” Hiro explained. “So, that’s what we decided to do.” 
“Yeah Tadashi was our best friend, in a way his dream lives in all of us.” Honey Lemon added. 
Kim couldn’t help but smile at what she’d just heard, she knew they had the best of intentions and couldn’t help but relate to that sure when she first started out she didn’t ask to be a hero but after saving a billionaire collector and many other things after that, she knew this was her path.
“I see, well I know you guys have the best of intentions but Shego isn’t like most villains you’ve faced.” Kim then said. 
“I thinks that’s pretty obvious.” Wasabi said with a raised eyebrow. 
“Yeah even with our tech we have no way to fight her.” Honey Lemon said. “Come on guys we can’t just give up!” Gogo argued. 
“Yeah didn’t stop us before won’t now!” Fred said standing dramatically. 
“With our current skills I calculate our chances 0.000” Baymax explained. “Baymax no need for the number crunching.” Hiro said.
The team could see they would need to do something to be able to handle the likes of Shego but Kim seemed confident about what to do in this situation. 
“No big guys we can handle Shego and Drakken just leave this to us.” Kim said. “Ron, Rufus let’s go.” 
“Right behind you KP.” Ron said Hiro was all but shocked to see they were going to stop Shego by themselves however they had been following the case too and they couldn’t just let this go after tonight. 
“Hold on!” Hiro said getting the duos attention. 
“We’re coming too.” Hiro said standing forward. 
“It’s okay guys we got this.” Ron assured. “No.” Hiro said with confidence. “We have to help, my brother would have.” 
“Besides San Fransokyo is our turf, we’re not going to stand by and let this green lady or her boss wreck it.” Gogo said. “So you’ll need our help, like it or not.” 
“Yeah.” Said the rest of the team. In response to that the teen hero could only smile in response. 
“Good, that was actually a test, to see how committed you were to what you do, and I’m happy to say you’ve passed.” Kim said. “We could use help navigating this city.” 
Hiro could only smile in pride and relief. “Oh yeah I’m sensing a super hero team up!” Fred said practically jumping up and down in excitement. 
“Okay geek cool your jets.” Gogo said. “Yeah we still need a plan to take on this Shego.” Wasabi agreed. 
“Well maybe it’s best if we first get our facts straight.” Hiro said gesturing to his board of all the locations that Shego has robbed over the past week. 
“Hiro, you are due to wake up in 2 hours, sleep is recommended.” Baymax said 
“I guess your right Baymax we’ll talk more in the morning.” Hiro agreed to which Kim nodded because even heroes need their sleep. 
Drakken’s lair
Meanwhile as San Fransokyo slept Drakken’s evil mind was at work using the equipment stolen he began assembling something in his lair. All the while his henchmen were moving the components into place. 
“Now thanks to those plans we stole from the Krei tech servers our plans are now moving into place.” Drakken said as he worked. “Soon the world shall know my name and tremble before my genius! MUHAHAHAHAHAHA!”
“So you’ve said the last 23 times Dr.D.” Shego said filing her nails. “Quiet Shego your harshing my mellow!” Drakken said harshly.
“Yeah yeah whatever.” Shego said when she continued to do her nails. Suddenly an alert sounded from her phone and she looked to see she had received an email, from an anonymous sender. She opened it only to reveal a strange monster symbol in purple on her phone and then. 
“Greetings, I have a proposition I’d like to discuss with you  Miss Shego, I’ve attached directions come alone.” Said a voice from the phone. The message then disappeared. 
Shego was very much surprised, how could someone know her contact details only Drakken knew that, but at the same time she wanted to know how someone could find her. There was only one way to find out.
The Water front San Fransokyo bay:
In the dark of the night fog surrounded San Fransokyo harbour all was quiet in the air soon a figure arrived at the waterfront she was wearing a dark green jacket brand new Club Banana. It was Shego, she had to admit she was a little skeptic about this meeting but was never the less curious. 
It wasn’t clear but she could make out a faint light in the dark it was neon purple and it looked like a thin one sided skull face. 
The fog cleared to reveal Obake standing in the fog. 
“I see you decided to come.” Obake said smirking. 
“Okay, you got my attention what do you want.” Shego demanded. 
“Oh I have been watching you for a while my dear, and I merely wanted to meet someone of great potential.” Obake said simply. 
“Watching me?” Shego asked. “Yes, ever since you and your employer Dr.Drakken arrived in the city.” Obake said. “And I must say the power you have has a lot of potential, potential such as that shouldn’t be wasted on an amateur like him, for you see there is no limit to the potential you have, I learned that from an old friend of mine long ago” Shego listened you what this stranger had to say and a small part of her couldn’t wonder if he was right. 
“ That is why when the opportunity arose I decided to test you’re potential against another with similar ambitions.” Obake then said.
“Wait you sent that ninja lady!” Shego said in surprise. “Yes you see in truth I had no interest with that hard drive, I merely sent her to test your abilities against her. However the arrival of Miss Possible and Big Hero 6 did complicate things it did prove how much potential you have.” Obake said. 
“You said you had a preposition for me, what’s that supposed to mean?” Shego asked. 
“Why to merely have you consider what I’ve said, and to provide you with the means to expand your potential.” Obake said as he stood aside to reveal a small black crate. Shego was all but curious at this point. 
“Consider this a gift.” Obake said as he walked away. 
“Oh and if and when this scheme of your employers goes awry, you’ll know how to find me.” Obake said as the left side of his face glowed and disappeared into the mist. 
Shego used her powers to give a light in the mist to look for the stranger but couldn’t find him all that was left was the small black crate that he left for her. Being curious she opened the crate and found something inside, something that intrigued her. 
The following morning
As the sun shon on a new morning in San Fransokyo Kim and Ron were making their way to the Lucky Cat Cafe. They entered the cafe to see Cass seeing to her customers. 
“Morning Cass.” Kim called. “Oh morning Kimmie” Cass greeted. “Please Cass call me Kim.” Kim insisted. “Oh sorry your mother still washes off on me, even after high school.” Cass said. 
“Right so is Hiro around?” Ron asked. ‘“Oh of course Ron he’s in his garage with Baymax Gogo and the others just recently got here.” Cass said. 
“Right thanks” Kim thanked as she walked through to the back. “So how do you handle being...” Kim quickly pulled Ron away before he could blurt out anything. 
In the garage, the team was gathered, Hiro was working at his computer whilst Baymax scanned Gogo. 
“Gogo, you appear to have fully recovered from your minor concussion.” Baymax said. 
“Thanks Baymax but I’ve taken worse falls than that.” Gogo thanked. 
“So guys is anyone but me excited for this super team up with Kim Possible!” Fred said bouncing round in excitement. 
“Fred calm down.” Wasabi said. “Yeah besides this is a collaboration.” Gogo said. “Yeah to take down a common enemy.” Fred said “classic super hero team up, just like the time Captain Fancy teamed up with another super hero to take down their arch foes who teamed up!” 
“You read Captain Fancy?” Called a voice and they turned to see Kim and Ron standing in the garage doorway. 
“Oh hey guys.” Honey Lemon greeted. “Glad you could make it.” Hiro said. 
“Now, let’s have the sitch about what Shego’s been doing in the city.” Kim said. 
Soon Hiro pulled out his large board from the back of his garage showing all the Krei tech facilities that Shego has hit over the past week. 
“Okay, over the last week Krei tech has had several break ins at their warehouses in the city and we’ve been tracking them.” Hiro explained. 
“Yeah and at each one different things were stolen tech pieces both cybernetic and mechatronics.” Gogo then explained. 
“At first we thought it might have been one of our enemies like maybe Momakaske or Yama.” Wasabi added. 
“But it was actually Shego, who’s been taking these items for Drakken.” Kim eventually surmised. 
“Yeah so what’s the deal with that blue skinned guy?” Fred asked. 
“Right best you guys know what your dealing with, but it’s best to late Wade snow you.” Kim said. 
“Who’s Wade?” Asked Honey Lemon. Then all of a sudden the holo computer near the front of the garage lit up showing Wade in his room at the computers. 
“That’s me” Wade said startling everyone. 
“Guys, this is Wade our resident super genius and our secret weapon.” Ron introduced. “Wade meet Big Hero 6” Ron then gestured to the team in the garage. 
“Dude!” Hiro panicked. “Guys relax Wade can keep a secret.” Kim assured chuckling. “Yeah plus Hiro, he’s a super genius like you and graduated college at 13.” Ron added. 
“All are true.” Wade said. “Well okay, I’m Hiro.” Hiro introduced. 
“Hello I am Baymax.” Baymax introduced with a wave. 
“That’s Gogo.” Hiro gestured and she just blew a bubble gum ball. “He’s Wasabi” “How you doing” Wasabi greeted. “That’s Honey Lemon.” “Hello there.” Honey Lemon greeted. 
“And I’m Fred” Fred said introducing himself. 
“Pleasure guys been reading up on you guys pretty impressive.” Wade complimented. 
“Okay Wade show them everything we have on Drakken and Shego.” Kim said. 
“Right showing files now.” Wade typed in some commands on his keyboard and showed files on Drakken and Shego. 
“Well as you guys have probably guessed Shego is an ex superhero gone rouge, and she works with Dr. Drakken.” Kim explained. “Drakken is your typical mad scientist who wants to conquer the world, he never does though. His real name is Drew Lipsky he was once a friend of my Dad in college.”
“Wait he was a friend of your dads!” Hiro said in surprise. 
“Oh.. a twist I’m liking this origin story more and more.” Fred said sitting down on a chair. Gogo just nudged him. 
“Yeah but he dropped out when he couldn’t build a good robot and his friends laughed at him.” Kim added. 
“Classic!” Fred said. “But what’s with the blue skin?” Wasabi asked. “Maybe he turned blue with sadness.” Honey Lemon guessed. 
“Blue skin is often what happens when someone holds their breath for a long period of time.” Baymax diagnoses with a diagram on his chest monitor. 
“I have a theory.” Fred said with a knowing finger pointing up. “When he was laughed out he must’ve accidentally fallen into a vat of chemicals which turned his skin blue and made him a little insane.” 
Everyone looked in surprise, to what Fred just said Baymax just blinked. 
“Wow that’s actually a good theory.” Wade said in surprise. 
“Yep never underestimate the power of comic books” Fred said proudly. 
“Okay, so back to the matter of Shego, what could she want with these components?” Hiro said. 
“Knowing Drakken it could be another one of his take over the world schemes.” Kim said. “Now they know you guys are onto them we’ll need to work together to stop them and figure out what they’re up to.”
“Great, but don’t we need a plan we haven’t fought someone like Shego before.” Wasabi asked. 
“Well you guys are good and judging by the security footage you stood your ground against Shego, but you need to learn how to fight better to stand a chance against foes like her.” Kim explained. 
“So I’m going to train you guys how to fight and how to better use your tech in team work.” 
“Oh yeah! IT’S SHUGYO TIME!” Fred exclaimed taking a kung fu training pose. “To the mansion!” 
Fred’s Mansion the gardens
Soon everyone was gathered in Fred’s back garden which was rather large with very Greek like architecture structures and statues. Everyone was now dressed in training attire; Hiro wore a white shirt with his normal pants and sneakers, Wasabi was in his yoga gear which was a green shirtless vest with black pants and shoes. Gogo just wore her white shirt with her black pants and leggings. Honey Lemon was in her yoga gear and both were bare foot. Fred meanwhile was in a training suit. 
“Dude this back yard is huge!” Ron said in amazement with Rufus looking wide eyes.  
“Yeah we train here with our suits sometimes.” Fred explained “You see that statue over there.” Fred then gestured to what was left of a statue that was destroyed by something. 
“Baymax wrecked it with his rocket fist when we first got our suits.” Fred then explained. 
“Whoa!” Rufus squeaked. “But weren’t your parents tweaked about that?” Ron said concerned. 
“Nah my dad didn’t like that anyway it was imported from someplace called the Southern Isles they didn’t want it for some reason so my mom bought it.”Fred then added. 
“Alright guys gather up.” Kim called who was now dressed in training gear of her own which was comprised of a pink short sleeved crop top, dark pink yoga pants and sneakers with a grey shirt underneath. Everyone soon gathered as she placed down some training gear such as punching pads. 
“Okay guys in order to stop your opponent you first need to know more about how they fight.” Kim explained. “So when you first fought Shego what did you see?” 
“Shes fast.” Hiro said “Mean!” Fred said “Fights dirty” Gogo then added. “Loves the colour green” Honey added. “And uses plasma blasts!” Wasabi then said. 
“All good answers.” Kim said with a thumbs up. “Shego’s style is all about attack and going on the offensive, and yes she uses energy blasts which trust me sting if you get hit.” 
“Got that notion.” Gogo said remembering her fight with her last night.
“So, how do we fight someone like that?” Honey Lemon asked. “By learning how to fight better and use teamwork.” Kim said “Now lets get you guys in fighting shape.” 
(Music Starts: Call me Beep me Sadie Stanley)
Kim holds up some punching pads in her hands and Gogo begins punching them followed by some kicks and Kim manages to block them all. Soon she and Wasabi are facing each other on the grass. Kim motioned for Wasabi to come at her, though he was a little hesitant at first he knew this was training so he charged forwards and threw a few punches which Kim dodged and then grabbed Wasabi’s arm and flipped him onto his back. 
Hiro was lasting a little longer when training against Kim she threw a few punches and kicks whilst Hiro avoided some of them and Hiro threw a few punches of his own. However Kim did a leg swipe and tripped Hiro up. 
He looked up and saw Kim offering a hand smiling which he took. 
Ron meanwhile sat on the sidelines with Rufus, Mini max and Baymax. Those who weren’t training namely Hiro, Wasabi and Fred were sat resting and with towels. 
Meanwhile Kim was doing a two on one with Honey Lemon and Gogo, they came at Kim with punches and kicks which Kim was able to block, and gave advice whilst doing so. 
“Remember coordinate like a team.” Kim said between kicks and punches. So the two responded by working as a team Gogo slipped past Kim whilst Honey Lemon threw a roundhouse kick and Gogo came up from behind and performed a leg swipe tripping Kim up who was quick to recover. She looked to the two impressed knowing they were learning. She then came in with back flips and then performed several round house kicks. 
From his viewing point Hiro was amazed by Kims fighting skills but given she said she was a cheerleader it did help a little, however when he looked to Baymax an idea soon sparked in his head. 
Later at the garage, Hiro was typing at his holo computer keyboard and was looking at recordings of their training session and Kims fighting skills. He knew exactly what to do with this. However, he then noticed Rufus was in the lab and looking at Baymax’s armour lying around and he saw the little mole rat was pretending he was firing rocket fists from his hands. Hiro could only chuckle a little but he then got an idea and so slid his chair over to the rear desk and picked up a small scanning device. 
“Hey Rufus.” Hiro called getting his attention. “Arms up and hold still.” He then said and Rufus a little confused held his arms up and Hiro scanned him creating a 3D render in his computer. 
Back at the mansion Kim had set up an obstacle course for a training exercise the course consisted of several benches hoops and even a balancing beam.Fred was suited up in his Fredzilla suit. Kim then ran forward and performed some of her cheer leading moves back flips on the benches, swinging on the hoops and then bouncing on the beam to back flip and land on two feet. She then gestured for Fred to try.
“Oh yeah!” Fred said putting on the top half of his suit on then charged in. “SUPER JUMP!” He exclaimed. He performed a super back flip with the enhanced springs in his suit and then jumped and then swung round the hoops and launched forwards jumps on the board and finally span in a circle breathing fire from his suit and landed on the ground in a dynamic super hero pose!
Kim nodded in approval of Freds success. Soon she was facing Wasabi again and this time he was more confident in his hand to hand combat skills and was able to avoid Kims leg swipe and then performs a round house kick knocking her to the ground. She saw him offering a hand which she took. Hiro too was improving not only with his own knowledge of self defense compliments of his brother, but with Kims help. 
He was able to avoid water blasts from water guns that Ron was firing at him from behind a cardboard cut out of Shego. Gogo who was now wearing her mag lev skates slide past all the water blasts grabbed Hiro’s hand and then swung him towards the target and gave it a round house kick. 
Hiro and Gogo gave each other high fives. Back in the garage Hiro was transferring data to something and out of a disk burner came a small data chip coloured in green. He then placed Kims signature logo on the chip compliments of Wade. He then went over to Baymax and opened his access port revealing his health care and superhero chip. 
“Okay buddy ready to take it to the next level.” Hiro asked. “Doing shugyo makes me a better health care companion.” Baymax replied and so Hiro placed the chip into Baymax which then retracted into his chest. 
Soon everyone was taking a break from their training and soon Hiro arrived with Baymax armoured up. Hiro then laid out some small devices in the garden and then opened his laptop typed in several commands and then Wade appeared on his desktop. 
“Okay Wade let it rip!” Hiro said “Right initiating training exercise.” Wade said as he typed in several commands and then activated devices which then projected holograms of several villains including Baron Von Steamer, Shego, High Voltage and Duff Killigan. 
“Baymax Go!” Hiro said and Baymax responded by rocketing forward and the holograms became aware. Holo Steamer fired a huge blast of steam which Baymax then formed his wings flew up into the air then came slamming down to the ground fist first, knocking the hologram to the ground. 
Holo High Voltage then attacked, and Baymax was quick to avoid it and rocket forwards performing a round house kick then saw Shego coming and backflipped over her back and in slow-motion fired his rocket fist from his left hand and knocked down the two holograms in one shot.
Kim was all but amazed by Baymax’s abilities and noticed how his fighting style was similar to hers, she then remembered how Hiro told her he’d made a chip full of combat programs for the original Baymax (the one Tadashi built) when they were starting out. So it was clear he had programmed him with her skills. 
Holo Duff then fired some explosive golfballs and Baymax quickly reacted by deflecting two with his left hand then jumped into the air rolled into a ball then kicked away the next three that holo Duff fired which didn’t hit him but Baymax then landed in front of him and then just looked down on him. 
“Aye I surrender!” Said Holo Duff and with that Wade and Hiro ended the exercise and the hologram disappeared.
(Music ends)
“Whooo!” Fred said in excitement. “That was amazing Baymax!” Honey Lemon said. “Not bad.” Gogo said. “Boyah Baymax!” Ron said excitedly. 
“Spankin job big guy.” Kim congratulated. Baymax then turned round to Kim and lifted up his right fist. 
“Uh..” Kim said confused. “Now we fist bump.” Baymax then said blinking. 
“Wait you know how to fist bump?” Kim said with a raised eyebrow. “Yes Hiro taught it to me.” Baymax replied. 
“Yeah I kinda did.” Hiro said rubbing the back of his neck. 
“Come on KP just go with it.” Ron suggested. “Don’t leave him hanging” 
Kim decided to just listen to Ron and the others and so. 
“Okay.” Kim then fist bumped with Baymax. “Bah-la-la-la-la-la-la” Baymax then said wiggling his fingers in the air after the bump leaving Kim with an even more confused look than before. 
Just then Kim’s Kimmunicator beeped and she answered it. “Go Wade.” She said. 
“Kim you guys may want to check the latest news casts.” Wade advised then bringing up a news report from San Fransokyo and their reporter Duff Blunder was on the scene. 
“This is Duff Blunder reporting live from San Fransokyo bridge where citizens are being attacked by what appears to be three individuals with jet packs.” Duff said through his microphone as he was on the bridge with panicking citizens. Suddenly dropping from the air came three armoured individuals two men and a woman each wore matching black armoured suits with grey underneath and red visors on their faces.
The first was a caucasian male with blonde hair and a muscular build, with a darker beard than his hair colour. The second was a dark skinned male who is bald and has a dark beard on his face and is more muscular than his compatriots. The woman was tanned skinned has long brown hair but a shaved off part on the right side of her head and wears red lipstick. 
“I’ll take that thanks!” Jack said snatching the microphone off Duff blunder and looking into the camera. 
“Hi there the names Jack, these are my compatriots Jaq and Jack” He said introducing his compatriots who took up action poses. 
“Together we are the Mad Jacks, normally we’re mercenaries for hire but today we’re making an acceptation several months ago we were humiliated and defeated and so I hereby announce a challenge to Big Hero 6, unless they agree to face us at the bridge my associates and I shall detonate bombs at key points under the bridge.” Greg Jack announced 
“So what’ll it be Heroes? you have two hours don’t keep us waiting.” Greg Jack said. 
The team looked at the footage in shock especially Hiro and his friends. 
“Old friends of yours?” Ron asked “Not exactly.” Hiro said. 
“Yeah the Mad Jacks are villains we’ve faced before their an elite special ops unit who work for the highest bidder.” Fred explained. 
“I’ve heard about them professional mercenaries for hire, and I thought Team Impossible gloated a lot.” Kim said. 
“Well Hiro was able to help us stop them despite being sick and with a broken leg.” Wasabi then explained. 
“Whoa talk about being a stubborn patient.” Kim pointed out. “Well if you think about it KP you went on a mission when we were full of a cold.” Ron pointed out remembering their Sick Day episode. 
“So it looks like their back for a rematch.” Gogo said. “Then it’s time we put our training to the test.” Hiro suggested. “Hey guys care to give us a hand?” 
“No need to ask we’re in.” Kim said confidently. “Okay guys suit up!” Hiro then announced. 
The team each suited up in their armours and bore their gadgets, whilst Kim and Ron dressed in their normal mission clothes Kim span her hair dryer grappling hook round her finger then placed it into her belt pouch. Then Rufus appeared and Ron noticed he was wearing armour identical to Baymax’s except it was in the same colour scheme as Kims mission suit and he wore the armour on his chest and hands. 
“Whoa Rufus sweet armour!” Ron said “Yep” Rufus squeaked. “Yeah saw him taking an interest in Baymax’s suit so I made him one of his own.” Hiro said and soon everyone was riding Baymax’s back as he rocketed across the city with his jet boosters. 
Hiro rode on Baymax using his magnetic gloves and pads while Gogo, Honey Lemon and Kim held onto the wings while on Baymax. Rufus held onto Kim as well. 
“Okay I’ll admit this is a killer view.” Kim said impressed. “Maybe if you were on his back!” Ron called as he and Wasabi were holding onto Baymax’s arms while he held onto Fred via his suit collar and he was posing like super man as Fred pretended to fly.
Ron wasn’t enjoying a single moment of this. “This is not cool man!” He said practically yelling. 
“How’d you think I feel I’m terrified of heights!” Wasabi exclaimed to Ron. 
Soon they were approaching their destination and the police were doing the best they could to barricade people off the bridge until the crisis was over.
“Look!” Called a woman and they saw Big Hero 6 and Team Possible arrive on the scene and the crowd cheered knowing the heroes had arrived. 
Baymax landed on the bridge and the rest of the team disembarked, however there was no sign of the Mad Jacks anywhere. 
“Where are they?” Honey Lemon said the rest of the team looked around but were a little cautious, Kim didn’t like the looks of this one little bit. 
Baymax scanned the area for any sign of trouble and when he looked up he saw something alarming. 
“Oh no” Baymax said and Kim looked up to see what he was alerting them about and her eyes widened in shock.
“LOOK OUT!” Kim shouted and everyone jumped out of the way of an incoming laser blast and were quick to avoid the impact. Everyone quickly recovered and got back up on their feet just as the Mad Jacks floated down using their jet packs.
“Well look who decided to show.” Said Jaq with a smirk. 
“So you guys still sore about us beating you last time?!” Hiro said “Oh you mean how you outsmarted and humiliated us!” Greg Jack said with a smirk.
“Well now it’s payback time!” Jack grunted. “Oh and I see you have help, your going to need it.” Greg Jack said noticing the presence of Kim and Ron. 
“Mad Jacks lets take em” Greg Jack yells and they fly in and attack, the team then scatter Hiro climbs aboard Baymax who takes to the sky after the three villains. 
“Jack, Jaq, take care of the six on the ground I’ll take care of the big bot and their leader.” Greg Jack ordered. “Copy that!” Said the two Jacks. Baymax and Hiro began chasing Greg Jack in the sky whilst the rest of the team take on the other two. 
The two Mad Jacks pull out their laser blasters and try to blast the team. Gogo and Honey Lemon jump to the left whilst Kim, Ron, Fred and Wasabi jumped to the right. 
“We need to find those bombs if they go off everyone still on this bridge will be toast.” Gogo said. 
Kim then reached for her Kimmunicator. “Wade scan for the bombs!” Kim said “Way ahead of you.” Wade said and after a few typing commands on his keyboard he soon heard a beep sounding that he found what he was looking for. 
“Got it! They’re under the bridge on the centre support!” Wade relayed as he showed a diagram of the bridge. 
“Wade put me through to Hiro!” Kim ordered. Meanwhile Hiro and Baymax were in a dog fight with Greg Jack who was trying to shoot them down with his laser bazooka. 
“Eat laser bot!” Greg Jack exclaimed. Baymax was able to doge the blasts and Hiro held on to his back. 
“Hiro you there!?” Kim said on the coms. “Yeah kinda busy!” Hiro replied. “We’ve located the bombs there under the bridge, near the centre support.” Kim relayed. 
Hiro looked down to the bridge and with the scanner in his helmet scanned the bridge and zoomed in to see several bomb like devices attached to the bridge. 
“I see them.” Hiro relayed. 
Back on the bridge the rest of the team were contending with Jack and Jaq. Gogo used her mag lev skates to skate and avoid the blasts then jumps and throws her mag lev disks at Jack which he then deflects. 
“That all you got speedy!” Jack exclaimed. “Okay time to use our training.” Gogo said 
“Honey let’s ground these chumps.” Gogo said “ Thought you’d never ask.” Honey Lemon said as she typed in a formula on her chem-purse and made two chem balls and threw the, both at the bridge supports, they explode and expand into a splat wall of elastic goop. 
(Music starts playing- Immortals Fallout boy)
Gogo then kneels down on all fours and revs up on her discs and launched herself forward into the ‘sling shot’ and pulled back all the way to the other end of the support until she was catapulted forwards into the air, heading straight for jack pulled back a fist then POW right in the face which sent him flying into the pillar at the far side of the bridge. 
Gogo then skated as she landed on the ground and Honey Lemon rushed to her. 
“Oh yeah Speed punch!” Gogo said “way to go Gogo!” Honey Lemon said giving her a high five. However they didn’t notice that Jaq was flying towards them. 
“Guys heads up!” Ron called to them they turned and saw Jaq arming her arm cannons. “Your Jacked!” Jaq yelled but suddenly. 
“SUPER JUMP!” Called a voice and she saw Fredzilla jumping in the air above her. 
“FLYING DROP KICK!” Fred yelled and performed a drop kick mid air knocking Jaq to the ground. Honey Lemon peeped a Chem ball and tossed it to Ron. “Throw it Ron.” Homey said and so he threw it to the spot where Jaq landed and it created a pink goo ball trapping her inside. 
“Grr!” Jaq growled as she couldn’t get out of the ball no matter what she tried. 
“You just got gooped” Ron cracked. “Boo yah!” Rufus squeaked. He then noticed Kim was not with them. Kim was below the bridge using some magnetic discs. She held the Kimmunicator up to the bombs so that Wade could properly scan them. 
“Kim I’ve got bad news!” Wade said. “Okay let’s hear it.” Kim asked. 
“Well, the bad news is the bombs can’t be disarmed manually there’s about five different triggers.” Wade explained. “Is there a way to disable it?” Kim asked with worry. 
“Yes disable the master detonator and that’ll disarm the bombs.” Wade surmised. 
“Well where is the trigger?” Kim asked. “I’ll scan for it” Wade began scanning for the bomb trigger and soon found it.
“Oh boy.” Wade said 
Baymax and Hiro were still in the air fighting Greg Jack who is chasing them with his laser bazooka Baymax was able to avoid the blast Hiro looks back and sees the Mad Jack behind them. 
“Hiro there’s a way to disarm the bombs!” Kim relayed on the coms. “Okay what is it?” Hiro asked. 
“The guy chasing you he has it, it’s located in his gauntlet on the left wrist.” Kim relayed. “Right that’s going to be a problem.” Hiro said seeing how Greg Jack was dead set on shooting the, down. 
From the bridge Kim could see the issue and from her back pack forms her jet pack and rockets into the sky. 
Back on the bridge the Police try to keep the crowd back within that crowd was Karmi who was trying to record what was happening. However she looked up to see Baymax and Hiro or as she knew them Captain Cutie and Red Panda fighting Greg Jack whilst the rest of the team deal with Jack who had regained consciousness. Then all of a sudden she saw a figure emerge fro, the bridge she zoomed in on it using her phones camera. 
“No way is that!” Karmi gasped her phone camera showed her it was Kim Possible fighting alongside Big Hero 6 she couldn’t believe it.
Meanwhile Baymax launches his rocket fist at Greg Jack, who used his jet pack to avoid it then fires his blaster at them which Baymax quickly avoids it as his fist returns to him. 
Then suddenly Greg Jack received a kick in the back delivered by Kim Possible he manages to stabilise himself and looked to see Kim just as Baymax flew next to her with Hiro. 
“You got the drop on me impressive miss...” “The names Kim Possible, ring a bell.” Kim said answering Greg Jacks question. 
“Oh yeah now I remember your the hero with a lame website it doesn’t even have a cool theme song.” Greg Jack cracked. 
“Says the guys all called the same name, Greg” Hiro then cracked. “Wait your names Greg but your all called the Mad Jacks?” Kim asked “yeah it’s really a code name found that out when we first fought and won.” Hiro then added. 
Greg Jack just growled with frustration. “Enough talk time to blast stuff!” He yelled as he blasted the two of them but they quickly avoided the blast. 
He kept blasting the three heroes with his bazooka until finally he clipped the wing of Kim’s jet pack causing her to spin out of control.
“Kim!” Hiro yelled, Kim quickly managed to get her jet pack off but was still falling to the ground Baymax quickly rockets down after her and reaches out with his hand. Reacting quickly Kim pulls out her grappling hair dryer and fires it towards Baymax who grabs it and swings it round lifting her into the air for her to land on Baymax’s back. 
Her grappling hook retracts leaving Hiro completely amazed. 
“You always carry a hair dryer with you?” Hiro said in amazement. 
“Never leave home without one, it’s saved me on multiple occasions not just life and death but also hair crisis.” Kim breathed. 
Suddenly Baymax avoided another blast from Greg Jack and flew away as he chased him. 
“He is still shooting at us.” Baymax said “no kidding, we’ve got to get that detenator!” Kim said to Hiro, “Then we’ll need to ground him.” Hiro suggested. 
(Music ends)
Back on the ground Wasabi was using his plasma blades to deflect blasts from Jack who was recovered and blasting them with his wrist blasters. Ron was running quickly to avoid them. 
“Yow, yikes!” Ron said avoiding the blasts. Fred then charged forwards and using his suits enhanced jumping skills he performed a triple back flip.
 “Homey chem ball me!” Fredzilla said and she fired a pink chemball from her purse and on the third flip Fredzilla kicked the ball into Jack and the chemball exploded and stuck him to the ground. 
“Boyah Fred!” Ron cheered. However their celebration was interrupted by the sound of laser fire they looked up to see Baymax, Hiro and Kim struggling against Greg Jack and getting the detonator from him. 
“We’ve gotta help them!” Honey Lemon said. “They’re too high up and none of us can fly.” Gogo said knowing that Baymax was the only one on the team who could fly. Or was he? 
Rufus pulled on Rons shirt and he saw that his mole rat friend was wearing armour similar to Baymax including its ability to fly. 
“Wait, Rufus! You can help them!” Ron said and Rufus nodded and almost on cue wings emerged from his armour and he posed like superman and rocketed into the sky. 
“Go get um!” Ron called which left the rest of the team skeptical looks as to how a small mole rat can help their friends. 
Greg Jack is going all out trying to shoot Baymax down he was beaten by these heroes before there’s no way he was going to let this happen again it would be an insult to his profession. 
However he felt a tap on his head and he turned to see a small pink rodent dressed up in armour with a jet pack. 
“Whuh?” Greg Jack said in surprise. “Hello” Rufus squeaked he then kicks Greg Jack in the face who cries in. Pain as he got hit in the mouth Rufus quickly flies away and Greg tries to grab him but misses. 
“Hold still you little..” Greg jack growled and Rufus just spits his tongue like a child which winds up the Mad Jack even more. 
However he’s so focused on the armoured naked mole rat he neglected a certain someone coming right at him. 
“Hey!” Called a voice and Greg Jack turns to see Baymax heading right for him with Hiro and Kim riding him. However strangely as Greg braces for impact he sees the flying red robot missed him as he flew right by. 
“Ha! You missed!” He shouted. Suddenly Hiro lands on his back and then hits a button on Greg’s jet pack which releases it from his armour. 
“Oh no...” Greg Jack gulped. “JACK DOWN AGAAAAIIIIIN!” He yelled as he fell to the ground and Hiro was falling right behind him but then Baymax swings in and Kim manages to grab him as they fly down and grab Greg Jack and lower him to the ground safely. 
“Nice one guys!” Honey Lemon cheered just then Rufus hovers down and lands on Baymax’s shoulder who turns to see him. 
“Flying makes you a better companion Rufus.” Baymax said and Rufus smiles and offers his tiny fist for a. “Fist bump” he squeaked. 
Baymax raises his fist and they bump them. 
“ “Bah-la-la-la-la-la-la” The two said. “So” said Greg Jack getting their attention. “You think this is over?” 
“Uh yeah.” Kim said taking the detonator from the compartment in his gauntlet and presses a red button that said disabled. Below the bridge the bombs then deactivate. 
“Your bombs are disabled, your revenge done.” Kim listed. ‘“Oh and look.” Kim then pointed and they saw a fleet of helicopters but they didn’t belong to the SFPD. 
“There’s Global Justice already here to Cart you guys away to prison.” Kim then pointed out. “Seems you guys have worked for a number of people on their most wanted list and you’ve committed a number of offences on their radar.” She then explained. 
“Yeah sounds like someone tipped them off.” Ron then added with a smirk. 
“Grr how did you guys get so good!” Greg Jack then asked Big Hero 6. 
“Easy ‘Greg’ we’ve been training.” Hiro smirked “with the best.” He said looking to Kim who could only smile. 
Soon Global Justice took the three Mad Jacks away to be incarcerated at their jail facility, whilst an officer of GJ explained everything to the police officer at the scene. 
“Okay guys seriously, were we awesome? Or were we totally AWSOME!” Fredzilla said in excitement. 
“I’ll admit, that was cool we’ve never taken down an enemy of ours that easily before.” Gogo admitted. 
“Yeah, did you see that sling shot move we did!” Honey Lemon bounced excitedly. 
“Yeah I hereby dub that move the Slingshot Punch!” Fred said. 
“Yeah not to mention I was totally alive out there!” Wasabi said. “What about me I was helping too I drew his fire!” Ron pointed out feeling left out. 
“We acted very efficiently in neutralising the target.” Baymax diagnosed. 
“We stopped the bombs, thanks to Rufus.” Hiro said thanking the Molerat. 
“But Kim I have to know how did you know that the Mad Jacks were wanted by those GJ guys?” Hiro then asked. 
“Oh that’s easy during the fight I had Wade do some research into them hacking their website..” “Cool theme some by the way.” Ron then interrupts Kim. 
“...yeah anyway Wade found the list of a number of clients they’ve worked for in the past including a number of war lords, crime bosses and of course a few super villains.” Kim listed 
“To cut a long story short forward the info to some fiends of ours in GJ and off to jail they go.” Kim finished. 
“Wow, you really can do anything.” Hiro said impressed. Kim could only smile humbly by this compliment. Just then.
“Oh my, that was AWESOME!” Shrieks a voice and they turned to see Karmi standing behind them. 
“An actually team up between Kim Possible and Big Hero 6!” Karmi said excitedly. 
“Oh I’ve got to get a picture of this.” She then said holding up her camera phone to take a photo. 
The nine heroes just stood bemused but decided to pose for a photo while Hiro just kept a natural expression. Karmi takes a photo showing her a photo of Big Hero 6 and Team Possible together. 
“Oh I’m so writing a fan fic about this Captain Cutie teams up with teen hero Kim Possible!” Karmi said practically bouncing away in excitement and could already picture her fan fiction taking place featuring chibi versions of the team and Kim. 
Hiro just grimaced at the thought of what she just said. 
“Captain Cutie?” Kim smirked with a raised eyebrow “Don’t ask” Hiro groaned. 
Meanwhile
Whilst events transpired at the bridge, far away in a old derelict warehouse on the dark side of town a lone figure stands alone in the darkness. 
It was really Shego except something was different on her wrists she now wore metal gauntlet like devices with glowing green lines on them. Ever since her little meeting with Obake he left them for her as a ‘gift’. Though a little skeptical she decided to test his present somewhere away from prying eyes and she knew Drakken would just ask questions. 
She looked at the gauntlets and they did seem to fit perfectly and surprisingly they didn’t clash with her outfit. However she was still unclear to their function. 
“Alright let’s see what glow face’s toy can do.” She said to herself. 
She infighter her powers as normal this then caused the gauntlets to activate which then caused her energy to glow brighter even her eyes started to glow a little. 
She threw an energy blast at a crate in the warehouse and it immediately blew it into a million pieces. She was completely shocked.
“Whoa! My blasts were never that powerful?” She said in amazement. She looked to her gauntlets and when she touched one of the lines it took her energy and formed it into a blade comprised of her energy. She couldn’t believe what she was seeing.
She then smirked and swung her arm blade like a samurai and then with one swipe let loose a huge energy wave that completely incinerated two of the rear pillars. 
She then bore a sadistic smile as her eyes glowed green and her hands burned with enhanced energy. 
“Oh ho ho ho! Me likie.” She said “whoever that guy is he’s right it’s time to see what potential I have!” Shego said and let loose a huge blast of energy from her hands. 
End of chapter 4
Whoa looks like Shego got an upgrade, looks like BH6 is gonna need that training Kim’s given them. Yes Obake has started to get involved in this story but still not the main villain (yet) The gauntlets were actually inspired by the KP 2019 live action film whilst they did make it look like the source of Shegos powers it didn't work for me so I’ve repurposed them as energy enhancers in this story.In terms of the Mad Jacks I always thought of them as the Team Impossible of the BH6 Universe except with more showmanship and cooler toys. So I was a bit gutted not seeing them in season 2 of the series lets hope they return for season 3 , but this did give me an idea revolving around their absence namely caught by higher authority. Chapter 5 coming soon.

Wolf and Raven Chapter 7
First
Previous
Next
Masterlist
A/N I had an idea of what this would be called if this was an actual Raven spinoff; Raven: The Winter's Heart
---
It had been days, and Raven was close to exhausted.
Wolf had apparently disappeared, leaving Raven to look after all four teams. Without Wolf’s runes it was now impossible to bring any of the Warriors back if they fell.
So Raven was flying between the teams, guiding them to their challenges and making sure all their camps had the proper wards up. Ravens Eye help them if a demon showed up, but they’d been oddly quiet since Wolf disappeared.
Raven of Old hadn’t been able to spot her either. There was some relief that he couldn’t sense her in the desolate realm that he had been trapped in, but he hadn’t seen her in the talisman. Something was blocking his view.
It made a worrying picture.
“WOLF!” Raven flew to the edge of the corruption, calling for the other shifter. The sun was almost fully set at this point. “WOLF! CAN YOU HEAR ME?!”
All that answered was the hoot of an owl behind her.
Raven shifted to her bird form and took off again, hoping to maybe spot Wolf. If she could be spotted.
As she flew, something caught her eye. Something that rang a bell of familiarity in her mind. A naturally occurring ridge within the corruption, sounded by a handful of large boulders. The boulders themselves shone like a beacon among the black rot, as they appeared to be unaffected.
Curious, Raven flew down, landing on one of the boulders. It did not burn her feet to do so.
A ring of grass encircled the rocks, highlighting a complex system of runes carved into the ground that must have taken days to set up, protecting this place from all that was a threat.
Raven hopped down from the boulder and shifted, standing to her full human height. Among the boulders was a small gap, just large enough for a human to slip through. She glanced over her shoulder before shuffling her way inside, pulling back the flap of leather that sealed it from the outside world.
She stepped down into a small space, but as Wolf has said, larger than the outside might suggest. It was a single room, mostly dominated by a rough wooden table in the centre that looked like it had been repaired several times. A fire pit sat near the entrance way, angled so that the smoke would leave through the door if the flap was pulled back. The pit was cold, not that it was needed; the inside was significantly warmer than outside.
At the back was a pile of furs, likely where Wolf would have slept, comfortable in either form. From the ceiling hung herbs and dry meat, while on the shelves were clay jars and dishware, cups and plates. Small wooden figures had their own shelf, as well as random odd bits of unfinished craftwork or seemingly random pieces of the forest. A particularly large pinecone, a stick naturally in the shape of a trident, a bunch of dried flowers.
A rune was carved into the ceiling, and when Raven got closer it began to emit a warm light, like a candle, only it was the light of several candles, easily.
Raven ran a finger along the table, picking up a film of dust as she did so. Wolf had not been back here in some time.
“Where are you?” Raven asked thin air. “I have hope that you are safe, that you somehow escaped, and yet I fear that is not the case.”
Raven continued to wander, ending up looking at the small figures. Two of them caught her attention, a raven’s head and a wooden crown. Both of them appeared blackened and burnt in some way, but not destroyed. The raven’s head was familiar, it was the shape Raven’s Staff of Power had taken when Raven of Old had wielded it. The crown she did not recognise.
Raven sighed through her nose and glanced at the rest of the figures, recognising none of them. She stood up straight, glancing around one last time. It almost smelt of Wolf in here, there was a slight smell of damp dog, and fresh carved wood mingling with the herbs.
Shaking her head to clear it, Raven walked out of the den. She had wasted enough time in here.
She kept searching until the moon was high and the stars shone before giving up and going back to her camp.
Back as human she drew the cloak around herself, feeling the cold as she stepped towards the dead campfire. A quick wave of the staff re-lit it, and she sat down, huddling in the cloak as the fire began to warm her.
She played the last time she’d seen Wolf over and over in her head. She had been frantic, distracted, afraid. It had been alarming to witness.
Raven herself had not been kind, jumping to the conclusion that Wolf had attempted to orchestrate a trap in return for her staff. Worst case scenario, she had and was feeling Nevar’s wrath. On the other hand, the trap may also have been for her.
Raven was no longer sure which was most likely.
She had already asked Raven of Old for his counsel and aid, which had so far yielded nothing.
Raven squared her shoulders. Perhaps the next course of action was to consult the Giants. Wolf had pointed them out to her, and Raven could fly up to them. Perhaps the combined counsel of the Giants and Raven of Old would yield some results.
 ---
The Warriors were close to reaching the edge of the corrupted zone, mere days away from the fortress. This was the last of the Giant’s Trials, and Raven watched them all as best she could. Not all the Warriors made it, demons had appeared now and on top of everything else, Raven had to fend off most of them.
Finally, a team of eight made it across the last trial, half of the original Warriors. Raven gathered them all together.
“Well done Warriors, you have completed the last of the Giant’s Trials,” Raven informed. “However, from here the real quest begins. In the heart of the forest lies Nevar’s fortress, and you will be split into two teams to infiltrate it. One team will approach from the north, one from the south. You will have to navigate Nevar’s defences, work your way to the centre of his fortress, and use the seeds you have gathered to revive the Heart Tree that lies within the grove there. Along the way, you may use the seeds you gathered to heal parts of the corruption, and doing so may help you on your journey, but be careful. If you use too many seeds along the way, you will not have enough to revive the tree.”
She looked at the remaining Warriors, tired, hardened, but ready. “I will speak with the Giants tonight, but for now, you are no longer Lynx, Stoats, Bears and Hawks,” she waved her staff, and the coloured tunics changed into either dark green or grey. “You are now split into Ravens, and Wolves,” she allowed herself a small smile. “Now, get some rest, I will inform you on the Giant’s words in the morning.”
With that the Warriors split off to make camp, talking together as they did so. Most of them were talking about the upcoming journey and comparing how many seeds they all had. Others were asking, not for the first time, where Wolf was.
Raven made a portal and stepped through to the base of the mountains. She looked up, seeing the peaks disappear into the clouds. They truly were giant.
Changing to a raven, Raven flew up into the clouds, hoping to find the heads.
The cloud cover obscured her view, and for several minutes she was unsure of where she was flying to. Until an eye much larger than her current form appeared in front of her.
Raven came to a startled stop and hovered in mid-air. A rumbling sound like thunder roared from the Giant, and it took Raven a moment to realise that the Giant was laughing.
With crackling rumble an enormous stone hand rose up underneath her, where she landed and shifted.
“Raaaaveen whooo iiis nooot aaa raaaaven,” a voice echoed in the sky. “Whaaaaaat brriiings yooouuu heeeeere?”
“I came to inform you that the Warriors have completed the last of your trials,” Raven squared her shoulders. “We will begin to advance on the fortress tomorrow, with your blessing.”
“Eeexceeeelleent. Theeeeeey aaaaaarree reeeeeaaady,” the voice rumbled. A rune flared in the Giant’s palm, and a small bag appeared in front of Raven. “Thiiiis iiiiis aaaaan eeeemeeergeencyy baaag ooof ruuunessstoooooness. Ssspliiit theeem beeetweeen theee Waaarrrriorrrs. Theeeey wiiiil alllooow twwooo aaaattaaaacks froooom deeemooons foooor eeeeaaach hoooldeeer. Theeeee oooootheeeers wiiiilll proooooteeect aaaaagaaaiiinssst theeee coooorruuuptiiiooon. Ooooone foooor eeeeeeaaach.”
“I see,” Raven scooped up the bag, feeling its concerningly light weight. “I will pass them on to the Warriors in the morning.”
“Gooooood,” there was movement above and some rocks falling, making Raven think that the Giant was nodding. “Weeeee weeeerreeee woooondeeeriiing, wheeeerreee iiiiis Woooolf thaaat isss noooot aaaa wooolf?”
“I do not know. I last saw her a few days ago.”
“Neeevaaaar’ssss pooweeeer waaaas strooooong theeeen. Thiiiiis iiiiis wooorrryyiiiing.”
“Is it possible, that Wolf is working with Nevar?”
“Iiiiit iiiiis uuunliiikleyyy,” the Giant informed. “Ssshheee dreeeeaaams fiiiitfuulllyyy. Ssshhee feeeeeaaarss hiiiim greeeeaatlyyy.”
“I see,” Raven thought for a moment before taking off her cloak, laying it down on the stone hand. This almost entirely paranoia, but it wouldn’t hurt to ask, “May I ask you to see if there is magic in this cloak?”
The fingers on the hand flexed for just a moment. Several runes flared and flashed around the cloak, and as quickly as they appeared, they faded.
“Theeereee iiiiis noooo maaagiiic. Iiiit iiss juuusst aaaa clooooaaak.”
“Thank you,” feeling relived Raven swung the cloak back on, blocking out the cold.
The hand began to lower, and Raven considered the audience finished. She shifted to a raven and flew back to the Warrior’s camp.
The staff was glowing purple when she landed, so Raven summoned Raven of Old.
“The Warriors must be finished with the Giant’s Trials by now,” Raven of Old commented once he appeared.
“They have. They will venture into the corrupted area in the morning.”
“This is good news. Have the demons been giving you problems?”
“Some, but they are manageable.”
“I would assume that Wolf has not yet reappeared.”
“No, she has not,” Raven sighed. “Have you seen her?”
“No I have not. Whenever I use the talisman to search for her, it turns dark. She is beyond my eyes.”
“I fear for her Raven.”
“It is likely she is with Nevar. Whether of her own free will or not, it hardly matters. If she is with Nevar she will be inside his fortress.”
“When the Warriors breach the walls, we can attempt a rescue.”
Raven of Old’s eyes narrowed. “Be wary if you take this path. If she has joined Nevar willingly, or has been turned, then you may have to fight her as well.”
“I am certain it will not come to that.”
“We can hope that it will not. I have searched the desolate realm to learn of Nevar’s plans, but I do not think he has been there for several days. The more magic he drains, the more time he will be able to spend in this realm.”
“Then we must move quickly. We will leave at first light.”
Raven of Old nodded. “I will watch from afar, and inform you if I have any news. May the luck of the Raven’s Eye be with you.”
“And with you,” Raven bid, and Raven of Old disappeared into purple smoke.
---
Giant Speech
"Raven who is not a raven," “What brings you here?”
“Excellent. They are ready,” “This is an emergency bag of runestones. Split them between the Warriors. They will allow two attacks from demons for each holder. The others will protect against the corruption. One for each.”
“Good,” “We were wondering, where is Wolf that is not a wolf?”
“Nevar’s power was strong then. This is worrying.”
“It is unlikely,”  “She dreams fitfully. She fears him greatly.”
“There is no magic. It is just a cloak.”

Hellbent
iiiit’s day two! I’ve actually been working this for a while, but finished it up for this week. \o/ today’s prompt is “favorite battle” so how about a BATTLE OF CONFLICTING EMOTIONS. it starts silly but gets feels-y, sorry. 
prompt that inspired this is here and from the lovely @writing-challenges-and-prompts​
this is set in the modern AU/Lights Will Guide You series!
Hellbent - (Young!Harlock/Warrius Zero)
"We're just friends." Harlock deadpans.
"Friends don't kiss." Kei counters, and she's not entirely wrong.
you can also read it here on AO3! 
"We're just friends." Harlock deadpans. "Friends don't kiss." Kei counters, and she's not entirely wrong. "Some friends do. Like the kinds with benefits." Kei is not amused. It shows in the way her dark eyes glare at him, and the unusual force she puts into organizing the papers on her desk. If he didn't know her better, he might have thought her jealous; but Harlock is very, very aware of her preferences for partners, and they don't include sulky ex-Navy men. "I don't trust him," She says at length, "I don't trust any of them as far as I can throw 'em." In some ways that's a roundabout compliment. Kei Yūki may look sweet and possess a slight figure, but he's seen her take down fighters twice her size. And while outnumbered. So really, she could throw them all pretty far, Zero included. And she's not a force to be taken lightly, like a storm at sea, waiting to sink ships and sink hearts. The two of them aren't related by blood, but sometimes he wonders if she isn't another long lost sibling. Kei is overly cautious from being burned one too many times. He can't say he blames her. The world is already cold and cruel, and it's done a number on all of them. She doesn't often share what happened to her in the period between running away from home and meeting up with the Arcadia crew, and he's not one to press her for details. But he knows enough to realize it wasn't pretty and it wasn't kind. So Kei has good reason to be suspicious of anyone who hasn't gained her respect, and it's a hard thing to earn her trust. The only reason she's here in the first place is because Harlock asked her to be. "Tori likes him," Harlock mentions, "I'd say that's a good litmus test." She shoots him an incredulous look. "That's a terrible example. That bird doesn't even like you." "He likes me enough," Though really, that was only because he fed the dumb parrot, "That totally counts." "What on earth are the two of you arguing about?" Marina materializes out of nowhere, a startling and all too common habit of hers. She comes armed with what look like case files, petty grievances they'll need to take care of if they want to keep their jobs. Before he can come up with an excuse for her, Kei is already counting mutiny. "Someone has been kissing the commander in the fire escape." When she put it that way, it made it sound like they were a couple of teenagers skulking around for kicks. Which, maybe wasn't that untrue, but that didn't mean she had to tell Marina of all people. The one person there who had known Zero the longest, who wasn't often found far from his side, and who always managed to look stunning regardless of the situation. Delivering mission briefings or breaking noses, she never faltered or lost her composure.  "Oh, is that all?" Marina's voice rang true and calm, yet there was an edge of ice to it, "Anyway, look into these security breaches. We need to know how deep they've gone." Then Marina sweeps away, leaving without another word like a receding tide, barely sparing them a glance. Kei throws her hands up. He shrugs. "You trust me, don't you?" He counters, knowing it's a little unfair to pull that card, because she's never been anything less than devoted, "I know what I'm doing. Relax." Kei grumbles something along the lines of 'I don't know why any of us bother with you', and his phone pings that a new email has come through. It's a very specific notification, reserved for anything from the government server they're all wired into, and he frowns when he sees it's from the same M. Oki who was just talking with them. She's also only a few yards off, there's no reason she needs to be messaging him when she can communicate in person like a rational human. He flicks the email open. It's a curt correspondence, no introduction or signature, just her name attached to the top and his in the receiving field. <If you hurt him, there will be consequences.> Few people can get away with threatening Harlock so openly. There are fewer people who legitimately terrify him. Marina is very close to the top of both lists. "What is it?" Kei asks. "It's nothing," Only quite possibly the shortest and most direct shovel speech he's ever gotten, "We should be working." "You never want to work." She points out, but lets the subject go. He doesn't dare look in Marina's direction. Really, he's not sure how much of a secret it all should or shouldn't be; Zero can be so prickly on a good day, to the point that it's hard to decipher between the officer's normal personality or if he's being an ass on purpose. He's so flighty for someone with a reputation for being loyal and steadfast, shying away even behind closed doors and hidden from prying eyes. He's not even sure where the two of them even stand at this point, if there should be labels involved or it's better to keep it off-brand for now. (Fraternization laws probably don't apply in this case, even if they did, he'd ignore them anyway, because to hell with that.) And yet kissing him is so good that Harlock couldn't resist catching him by the back door that morning. Which of course was when Kei wandered by, nearly choking herself to death on her coffee when she saw them. He's probably lucky Zero didn't pitch him out the nearest window for that one. It's not like it had been on purpose, and they were all bound to find out eventually. It's impossible not to, when they're working and living in such close proximity to each other. And they're glorified experts in espionage, for crying out loud, he could find out everyone's favorite color and childhood pet in twenty minutes if he put his mind to it. If he was really determined, he could probably find every dark and embarrassing secret of every person in a five mile radius, and the whole city if Kei and Ishikura helped. So how were they supposed to keep a relationship of all things under wraps, under the noses of individuals trained to sniff out deceptions and half-truths? Only an idiot would try. Or, someone so stubborn and deep in denial that they ran the risk of drowning. Fucking Zero. Harlock had taken a calculated risk with him, when he had asked for his handler to be the same agent who had spent years trying to bring him to justice, but he hadn't expected this. Because, maybe, he hadn't planned on an infatuation, or half jokingly flirting with him, which  may have turned into whatever it is that they've been avoiding talking about. It wasn't Harlock's fault that he was stuck living with someone who was so accidentally attractive. (Except, it was his own damn fault, and now he had to deal with the consequences.) It started as just a way to pass the time, an exercise in seeing how he could get under his keeper's skin, and now he's fallen. Hard. This wasn't part of the plan. None of this was part of the plan. Not that the plan had been fool proof, or even fully baked by the time Harlock had put it in motion. Its still a vague sort of idea, floating about with loose strings he's tying together on the fly, but it had worked out so far. Mostly. Present situation not included. But the plan comes first, it always come first, because he'd die before he'd let a vow go unfulfilled. Even if it was hard to come to terms with the fact that they would eventually be jumping ship, slipping back into the sea once they'd gotten what they came for. What Arcadia members are on this team may not know exactly what's going on, but they're smart enough to realize they're all acting the parts the government wants them to until they're ready to bail, a deception and treason of the highest order. He never said he was an honest man. Harlock sinks low in the office chair.   This would have been easier without lingering attachments. And yet had made them anyway, like the idiot he was, repeating the same mistakes over and over again. You would think he would have learned by now, but there was still that stubborn part of him that was a hopeless romantic. At least it would be good while it lasted. Marina couldn't kill him if she couldn't find him. 
On his way to the vending machine, Zero ambushes him. Which would have been great if it was for some midday fooling around, but instead Harlock has a snarling totally-not-a-boyfriend to appease. "Who did you tell?" Zero growls. "I didn't tell anyone!" "Bullshit." This is it. This is how he dies. In a back closet of an undisclosed office somewhere within the greater-Boston area. There are worse ways to go, and Harlock always knew he'd kick off young, but it's a little disappointing that it won't be in a blaze of glory. It really isn't fair. "I swear to god it wasn't me," He pleads, "If anything, it was Kei." She probably doesn't deserve to be thrown under the tracks like that, but at the same time, she had started it. If he's going to die then he's not going down alone. And technically he hadn't breathed a word of anything; that had been other people's doing. Zero looks both indescribably livid and so very tired. "I hate you. I hate you both," Zero bites out, "You're the worst." Before Harlock can come up with a defense, or a snappy reply, Zero is kissing him. It's not where he expected things to go, but he's not going to complain either. Zero is hellbent on taking every piece of his being and spinning it upside down, even if that defies logic, because it's alway been Harlock who's taken people on rides. Although, none of those had worked out very well in the end, so maybe it's just as well. This is better than any of them anyway. His hands curl in the front of that dumb Navy jacket Zero was always wearing so he can pull him closer, to cut his tongue on teeth. It's so easy to fall like this. It won't be easy to leave.
