While Hiro and his whole group were doing their thing, I was starting a new project, fire prevention. No one else needed to die the way Tadashi did. But after months of building and testing, it was ready for it's first presentation to a company. I was staying with Cass and Hiro, in Tadashi's old room. Cass was helping me get ready, helping me pick out the right heels to go with my suit. She even helped me with my hair, which I was keeping blue, but with a few red and purple streaks because they were Tadashi's favorites. I had to look as professional as I could with my hair still colored, I mean, what could they have expected from a college student? I couldn't let people die like Tadashi. My system was the Tadashi System in his honor. It would not only detect fires and find the most effective ways of getting everyone to safety, it would have sensors to detect the type of fire it was in order to put it out in the most effective fashion. No water on electrical or grease fires, no sand on electrical fires, etc. It was a flawless system, at least for now.

I got to the company, and started to panic. No one came with me, and only Tadashi had ever known how to help me calm down from my panic attacks. So as I walked into the building, I pulled out my phone and earbuds to listen to an old recording of Tadashi. He had been so happy. If he hadn't died, none of what had been going on for the past few months would have happened. Hiro, well, any sort of explosion, thunder, or fireworks, made him panic. He would always end up crying for Tadashi, so I'd try to help since I knew how Tadashi would have calmed him down. But now, no one could help me. None of them knew about my panic attacks, except Cass since they brought me to her door more often than not. I sat and listened to the recording until I calmed down and went up to the receptionist.

"Excuse me, I have an appointment," I said softly.

"Wonderful, they are expecting you. Head on up the the top floor," He smiles before motioning to the elevator.

"Thank you," I smiled back a bit before walking to the elevator and going to the top floor.


After about an hour and a half, my meeting was over, and it went well. The Tadashi system would be implemented in several schools first, then in businesses and stores. I was so happy about that. Once I got the news, I went to the cemetery to his headstone to tell him the news. Well, it's not like he would have actually heard me. He was dead.
