Syndrome grumbled as he walked over to the storage room where he placed the teleportation spheres. He opened the doors and grabbed one when he noticed Yokai and Dr. Calico walking by with the four young Supers in tow.

“Where do you think you're going?” Syndrome asked them.

“We were coming to ask you where you wanted them placed. In separate cells, or with Supers like them?” Dr. Calico asked.

“Put those three in cells with Supers that have similar powers, but put her with her parents,” Syndrome replied, smirking evilly when he pointed at Violet.

They were about to leave when Syndrome stopped them.

"Wait, that one has quite a bruise there, what happened?" Syndrome asked and pointed to an uncouncious Penny.

"Why do you care?" Wilbur sneered.

Yokai increased the microbot's hold on him, making him groan.

"We didn't want to take any chances with her mind control, so we knocked her out. It'll give Dr. Forrester an incentive, don't you think?" Dr. Calico asked.

"I'm surprised you didn't mess up for once," Syndrome commented. "You know what to do."

The two villains nodded and turned around. Syndrome closed the storage and threw the sphere a few feet away. He fixed his suit before walking through it. Penny glanced at his retreating figure, waiting until the portal closed shut.

“He’s gone,” she whispered to Wilbur.

“Good, how are Hiro and Violet doing,” Wilbur replied.

Hiro, did you find them?” Penny asked him via telepathy.

Yeah, but there are cameras everywhere. It’s been difficult to get close, going into the control room would be much more difficult, luckily I was able to get the layout of the building. I’ll send it to you guys,” Hiro responded.

Both Syndromes are gone, and Yokai and Dr. Calico are under my control, maybe that’s it?” Penny replied.

No, the video Syndrome “leaked” had Violet and I beating a man. I found that he was your ex-agent. My guess is he’s working with them too,” Wilbur replied.

So, what do we do?” Hiro asked.

If I can touch one of the cameras, I could potentially fry this level’s circuits, since, based on the blueprint Hiro just sent, everything appears to be connected. Even if I only fry some of the cameras we could use it as a distraction,” Wilbur thought.

There’s a camera right ahead. On the count of three Wilbur will grab the camera, and I will make them release us. Aunt Cass, you and I will go to where Hiro is to find the Supers and lock up the villains,” Penny explained to everyone.

“Wow,” Hiro mumbled.

He was impressed that she could take over so well.

I’m going to find the time machine. What about the guards? Just because we didn-t see any, doesn't mean there are none,” Wilbur asked.

If they’re trouble we’ll take care of them as we go along, but we’ve only seen about 6 since we arrived so I’m guessing there aren’t that many,” Penny responded.

Aunt Cass, who tripled herself and then used holograms to look like Hiro, Baymax, and Violet, nodded with a slight smile.

This is happening so fast,” Aunt Cass thought.
