Just a little note: if you see 'Trench Coat', I'm referring to the man that's with Callaghan so that I don't have to say that every time (it's like his nickname)

Everyone had been walking - well, more like being dragged along by Callaghan and the man - for about 30 minutes. It was still raining, and everyone was cold and soaking wet. The gang tried to annoy the men by complaining, but Callaghan and Trench Coat just ignored them. They hadn't worked out all the details, but now Callaghan and Trench Coat were starting to think about it: 'Where should you put 6 kids whining all the time?' was pretty much the only thing in their heads.

"I'm cold! And tired of walking! And I'm soaking wet! Leave us alone!" Fred uselessly whined. There was nothing that would change the men's minds... Or, so they thought at least.

"Fred, you're not helping, the only thing you're doing is making it worse for all of us!" Hiro shot back. He wasn't in the best mood.

"The kid's right. If you don't want this to be even more miserable than it already is, you better keep your mouth shut!" Callaghan boomed. Looks like no one's in a good mood today, Gogo thought. She had her arms folded and had been silent the whole time.

"Uh, just one teensy question," Wasabi squeaked.

"What?" Callaghan answered, obviously very annoyed.

"Where exactly are we going..?"

"You'll see." Callaghan grumbled.

------------

It had been a long and miserable walk to, well, wherever they were going, and it had taken about an hour and a half, not including the thirty minutes before. The gang was shivering at how cold they were, and three of them were beginning to get a cold.

Achoo!

"When can we take these itchy things off?" Hiro said stuffily, scratching at the blindfold.

"We'll take off your blindfolds in a bit! But for now, listen. We can do this the easy way, where you can obey us and we'll take care of you. Or..." He paused. "You can try to escape, you can be bad, you can whine, but I will make sure - even if just one person acts up - that everyone will stay terribly miserable, and will suffer."Callaghan explained, his voice icy and cold.

Motioning with his hands, Callaghan signaled Trench Coat to start taking off the blindfolds. The five teens looked down at their feet, praying silently. As soon as everyone's blindfold was off, Callaghan continued speaking.

"Now that you can, everyone look at me, not your shoes! What I want..." He paused again, making the gang nervous, on purpose, "is for you, to become my..how can I put this...slaves. I want you to make the technology I demand, I want you to make me more powerful than that Alistair Krei, I want you to make me able to destroy him! Or else..." Callaghan grabbed a gun from Trenchy and held it up at the gang, continuing.

"Or else, it's lights out."

----Meanwhile, at the cafe----

"Okay, thank you so much officer. I'm just- just very.. scared." Aunt Cass said, trying not to tear up.

"We know, ma'am, we'll notify you if we see any of them, including the two men that took them." An officer replied, climbing into his car.

"Thank you," She shouted as he drove off.

"And thank you for the donuts!" The officer yelled back, going farther and farther away. Aunt Cass sighed. She walked back inside and stared at a photo on the wall. First Tadashi...now Hiro...

"I guess it's just.. me..." Aunt Cass grabbed a cloth and began to wipe the counters, still trying not to cry. Even though there was no one around-

"Hello, Aunt Cass. Where are, Hiro and, the gang?" Baymax came waddling down the stairs.

"Wha-?!" Cass threw her rag behind her as a reflex, and it landed straight on Baymax's head.

"I fail to see how this armor will protect my non-threatening, huggable design." Baymax said, turning his head slightly, causing the rag to flop over his face.

Aunt Cass couldn't hold back just a slight smile, despite the disappearance of her nephew. "No, Baymax, it's not armor..It's just a rag. You..you just scared me, that's all."

Suddenly, Aunt Cass had an idea, a lightbulb above her head. She began to think hard. "Wait, Baymax, that's it!"

"Rags?" Baymax chirped.

Aunt Cass smiled again and took off the cloth. "No, the armor. If I can get you in your armor, then we can fly up and find those men who stole Hiro and his friends, using your scanner! C'mon, Baymax, we're suiting up!" Aunt Cass turned to look at Baymax.

He blinked.

~~~

Okay, I know Aunt Cass doesn't really seem like the type to be willing to fly in the air on a giant marshmallow man's back (one of the many normal things I have said), but it's to find the gang. So I'm pretty sure Aunt Cass would jump off a cliff to keep them safe, or whatever it takes. ;3
