It has been two weeks since Will Solace was announced dead. With his reputation and kind attitude, it wasn't a surprise to find the atmosphere to still be a little gloomy, especially around the Hades Cabin. There resides Nico di Angelo.
He rarely talked, went out and ate. Everyone was worried.
One day, Nico was surprised to wake up to a red case beside his bed. He picked it up and checked it out. A weird futuristic case. He tried to pry it open, but it wouldn't budge. He pulled harder.
"Ow!" He pulled a little too hard. He almost scraped his finger on the unmoving red case's lid.
To his surprise, it suddenly started inflating. He threw it off him and watched as the mysterious contraption started to put itself or rather balloon itself together.
After a few seconds, it stopped growing and in front of Nico was a white snowman with black eyes and a line connecting it. It stared back at him.
"Hello," Nico flinched at its robotic greeting, "I am Baymax, your personal health care companion."
"Bay-max?" He uttered as he tilted his head and took a look a little closer, "Health care companion?"
"Yes, I heard a sound of distress. What seems to be the problem?" The robotic marshmallow asked.
"Nothing. I'm okay," Nico answered out of reflex.
"I will scan you now." Baymax said and he just tensed up.
"Scan me? What do-"
"Scan complete." Before he could even finish, Baymax was already done- or was already beginning.
"Your energy levels and your melanin levels are extremely low. You are malnurished and you also seem to be emotionally unstable. Diagnosis: depression."
Nico was caught jaw dropping at the robot. He didn't know that things like Baymax could be created, even with a god's power.
As soon as everything sank in his mind, he was immediately on guard, "Wait a minute, who sent you?!"
The robot tilted its head, "I believe his name was Hades, your father." Baymax answered and Nico's jaw just literally dropped again.
"My dad sent you?"
"Yes, he asked Hepheastus to create me so I can help you." He explained, but Nico still had a hard time to believe it.
Yet again another weird gift from his trying-hard father. He couldn't help but groan and fall back on his bed. He knows that his father means well but- "No one can help me except for Will."
"Will?" Baymax repeated and it has only hit Nico that he said that out loud. "Shall I get Will then?"
"He's gone, Baymax. He's gone." He said as he felt the sadness and darkness kick in again.
"Would you feel better if I brought him back?"
Nico went back to bed, huddled himself to the wall and covered himself with a blanket as he tried to forget about the pain once more, "I would feel much, much better if you could."
It was pure silence after. Nico was starting to fall into sleep, until he realized what he just said to a robot that came from his father. He shot back up and turned to where Baymax was.
All that greeted him was an empty red case and an open door to his cabin.

Nico has been searching for Baymax with the red case in hand all around the camp; in the dining hall, training grounds and even the forest. He also checked at every cabin. The only cabin he hasn't checked was the Apollo one. He knew it was stupid of him to leave it last, but memories of Will just came flooding back and he didn't know how to handle it yet.
