It took me almost forever to figure out an Introduction, but it's the best I got for my first time writing a Fanfic. So remember, this is an OC Fanfic of my OC. He won't be an overpowered person like all the other OCs in other Toaru Stories (In my opinion), that is the role of the Antagonists. Of course this story is going to go to the Index Arc One Day, and of course it will visit the a Railgun Arc also.
I don't own Toaru Majutsu no Index or any of the Side Stories. Only the fanfiction. Just the OC.

Chapter 1: First Day in Academy City
PLACE: ACADEMY CITY
TIME: 21:30 (9:30P.M)
April 9th, 20XX
There is a boy, no a teen aging around 16 to 17 years old. He has black hair, blue eyes, and is wearing a simple white dress shirt coupled with dark blue pants, but undoes the dress shirt to show the black t-shirt under. He wore a yellow scarf that dragged across the wind as he ran. This is Jouichi Kazegami, and he is being chased by delinquents. Lots of them...
Joucihi POV:
"AUGH! I NEED AN ADULT! ACCISTANCE, ANYBODY!"
"O-OI! GET BACK HERE YOU PIECE OF CRAP!"
"WAIT TILL I TEAR YOU A NEW ASSHOLE YOU PUNK!"
"N-NEVER!"
Yea, that's me. Being chased by a bunch of dudes, in the streets of Academy City, the City of Schools and ESPers of all kind. A Place where over 2,300,000 students reside, not counting the ad- Wait… why am I thinking of this! It doesn't matter in a situation like this. It's like doing the right thing here is Taboo, dammit!
FLASHBACK—Start
It first started out just right after I settled in my new place. A dormitory in the 7th District of Academy City. My new neighbor was kind enough to lend a hand with moving my stuff into my room. He has black hair, black eyes, and probably a strong guy since he's carrying the several boxes labeled TEXTBOOKS. Along the way to my room, the box on the bottom unanimously ripped open. Each textbook landing on his foot. Then he muttered,
"Such Misfortune."
After digging him out of the predicament, I took the other two boxes and noticed that they were ripping open. I flipped the box to the side that wasn't ripping, then began to carry them like baskets.
His name is Kamijou Touma, the guy who helped me move into this famous Metropolis known as Academy City the most Technelogic-Advance City in the world, well... My dorm room anyways.
The room I now will live in is a simple room. Wood floors, a small kitchen area, a small TV set, a book shelf, not to forget the bed. The necessary furniture is already here.
After placing the boxes down,Kamijou asked me a question.
"So, what brings you to Academy City?"
This guy seemed so curious, so I told him.
"The scientist people here thinks I'm a Gemstone."
"A Gemstone? You must be pretty lucky."
"Lucky? How?"
"ESPers like me have to go through the painful process of the Power-Development Curriculum to even get a power."
"The power develo- what?"
"The Power-Development Curriculum, it's a process that students like me go through to even become an ESPer. Some go on to become Level 1, may be even Level 2 or Level 3 ESPers. Most Espers growth end at Level 4. But only 7 people reached up the strongest Level, Level 5."
"Level? You level up like in an RPG Video Game here?"
"No, it's nothing like that at all. It's a way the city ranks your power."
"Ehh... So this place ranks ESPers like video game players on the Leaderboards?"
"Yea.. Pretty much."
"... While were on this Level topic. What did the City rank you as?"
"A Level 0."
"..."
After he said that. It became very quiet. I had to ask.
"There's such a thing?"
He nodded.
"Yea.. It's also a way to separate the ones with power, and the ones without power. So, when are you going to find out your Level?"
"The scientist said that they will do it on the System Scan day. What is that anyways?"
"System Scan huh,it makes sense because all of the ESPers are being checked out to see if their Level raised up a bit or not."
The sun began to set. Kamijou looked at the clock in the room.
"Ah, it's been that long? I still need to get groceries for this week!"
I got up and nodded,
"Well, I can finish unpacking. I owe you a favor alright."
"No need, just doing the right thing to help out a fellow neighbor."
With that, the black haired person left.
I began to unpack my things. Not long after that, pretty much everything became unpacked. I looked at the time.
Wow, it's only 19:08 (7:08 P.M.). I think I have some time to explorer a bit.
I grabbed my keys and left, not forgetting my wallet.
Looking around the new layout of the city, just this one district alone left me in awe. There are so many places to hang out. I even found an arcade with all the games I like. From Street Fighter to Blazblue. Even Gundam Simulation game's are here, with all the mobile suits from the Universal Century.
"Now to find a great place to eat..." I said to myself.
I peered through the windows of every restaurant I found. I'm kinda window shopping, but I only wanted to see what they serve. I finally made a choice, jonaGarden Family Restaraunt.
As I got in, a waitress guided me to a seat. Then, she gave me the menu and left.
I scanned through the menu, only to find prices only I can't afford.
I sighed, "Only have enough for one thing."
I told the waitress what I wanted and then she left to tell the chef.
The service here seems nice. I might come back here again.
I then waited quietly, not for long though. In the corner of my eye was a blonde haired girl with golden eyes, she was eating alone until a few guys stepped up to her table.
The people were a group of two who's appearance defined perfectly as a pair of delinquents. The girl looked annoyed, and seemed as if she lost her appetite.
I want to help, but was afraid to do so.
But then I remembered what Kamijou said.
"The right thing huh?"
FLASHBACK—End
Basically I cursed out at the two delinquents off and then four to six people left the bathroom near the table the girl was in. It seemed that those people in the bathroom were their friends. But my main question is why a bunch of dudes use the restroom together, isn't that a girl's thing only? Their leader shouted at them to chase me down and kill me, the usual stuff that pops out of a delinquent. This would now bring me to now, me running from a bunch of dudes.
I was looking a way for a place to escape,
The alleyways! They're skinny enough only to fit a small number of people.
I ran into the alleyway. The group of delinquents followed.
Who the heck leaves a perfectly good baseball bat lying around here. Oh well,this will work.
I grabbed the wooden bat to use it as a weapon.
But the moment I picked it up, it broke.
Piece of crap! I threw it to the ground in disgust.
"It's time to stop playing around."
A Big guy with a crew cut, in a leather jacket and jeans stepped up. Something was off about this guy. I felt a faint pulse of heat, faint but still there. Then, the pulses of heat grew stronger and stronger. It start to heat up gradually, and I felt a sensation of heat surround me as well.
"I'm a Level 3 Pyrokenesis, and you're going to die here!"
He pointed the flames at me, I guarded myself with my hands, to protect myself.
"DIE!"
I waited for Impact, the flames that will soon kill me. I felt the heat from within burn my whole body. I tried to guard myself with my hands to block the incoming ball of flames.
In never came. Instead, I looked up to see the ball of fire explode in front of the Pyrokenesis.
Eh? I only thought. The delinquent fell with a thump.
"Huh? Aniki!"
I peered at the fallen Delinquent, he had at least a few places with burnt off skin.
The otherdelinquents shook the unconscious man, trying to wake him, but to no avail.
The delinquents looked at me, with fear in their eyes.
"Hi- AUUGGHH!"
The conscious group of delinquents saw me as a monster, who just burnt their friend to a crisp.
The delinquents ran away, alongwith their leader on their shoulders.
"What did I just…."
I began to think. What happened?
When the delinquents left, I left the alleyway to the main street and began to walk home.
What was that burning sensation earlier. What exactly was it that defended me from harm.
It was only this thought that stayed in my head.
Before I could find out, I looked around. The streets were empty, no one was on it. It was like there was no life. Only me, alone in this once busy street. Not even cars were around, the only cars here were parked ones. I looked around, shops were open, but no one inside.
I then saw a figure in the distance. It is a blond haired girl with golden eyes, she wore a bag over her shoulder, it had a single golden star on its design. The girl stopped right in front of me. I then felt a pressure exert from this girl. A strong, powerful pressure that began to dig into my head. It felt painful, but it stopped after a few moments.
I looked at the girl, then remembered where I saw her.
It's that girl! That person I kind of saved... But she looks unpleased.
"It's you.That girl...? Wait... Where are all the people!"
I asked this girl. She was the only person in sight, so why not take a hit and ask? She is younger than me, but looks like she could be a high school student.
"I asked them to leave."
She simply said.
Asked them to lea—Wait a minute..
"Who are you!"
"Huh? That should be my question! Why can't I get into your head!"
The girl whined. But what did she mean by that. Get into my head. Is she an ESPer that reads minds or something?
"Huh? You don't know who I am?"
"Not really, I just got here... I'm just a transfer student from Tokyo." I said.
"... I'm Shokuhou Misaki. I'm Ranked 5 of the Level 5's in Academy City."
I don't really get this Level System yet... But being a Level 5, does that mean that she's a very powerful person? I thought all the Level 5's were well... think of a person with a huge head, yea... Something along those lines.
I started to feel the same feeling again. I started to feel woozy again, and it felt like someone began to cut open my head. I grabbed it in pain, trying to take it out.
"Ahh... AHHH! Get the hell outa my HEAD!"
I screamed. With that, the pain disappeared and I felt my senses slowly becoming normal.
"Uuuuu- I never met someone who could actually resist…"
The girl whined. Is she the cause of the pain in my head? She had an intrigued look, as if something caught her eye. The only thing is, that she is looking straight at me with eyes almost in a glow-like state like in those comedy animes. She began to talk like those Ojou-sama types dad kept on telling me about, the bad kinds. How does he know? My dad is a super Otaku, from romance to bromance and comedies to tragedies, from card games to who knows what. Because of that, I know a little something about these things which made me nickname my dad the Otouku (Combination of Dad(お父さん) and Otaku). It's regretful to even name my father this, but he earned it. Now... onto the present.
"Hey. What is your name? I've introduced myself, so it is natural if you give me yours."
"Ehh? I don't want to, plus you didn't need to be showing off your own name to strangers. Besides, if you ARE Rank 5, you should be able to read my mind off the top of your head if your power IS telepathy or something."
I taunted. What is this girl's deal anyway. Does she want to prove something. The pain came again, but less annoying than earlier, so it didn't bother me.
Many seconds pass. She is just concentrating on me, trying to figure my name out.
"... you call yourself a Level 5. Are you even one of those braniacs people call a walking army?"
I sighed, "It's Kazegami, Kazegami Jouichi."
"Uuuu.. You didn't have to tell me."
The blonde haired Japanese girl could only reply. She looked angry, the back of my head says that this will bite me in the ass, but yet what could this girl do? She's alone.
I then started to feel the pressure expand.
What is this feeling anyway? Hmmnnn...
In the distance, I saw figures. Many many figures that now look like a lot of... Girls? In the same uniform no less, rallying beginning the blonde. I began to feel the pressure build up from around me.
"This is what you get for teasing me!"
The girls lifted their hands. In an instant, the pressure exploded from behind. I felt it with every inch of my body. It felt fragile, breakable, yet I felt afraid. Why did I feel afraid? Speak to the rally of flying fire, water, ice, and shards of rocks that came from absolutely nowhere into the palms of their hands. I even felt wind fly past me.
"Holy..."
I said, covering myself from harm by moving my hands to guard myself. The only thing is that there is nothing that could stop this rally of death, the only thing I can do is watch as the attacks that will launch at me at full force. I braced for impact, ready to die... I then felt pressure build up inside me. I felt heat, moisture, coldness, even a faint wind. I look and saw that the attacks blow up in their faces like a pie to the face, but on a much more dynamic scale.
"Huh..? Wha—"
"What did you do? I demand an answer!"
The girl interrupted,Yea... What did I do, defend myself? Wait! Is my power to reject other powers and have it fail by having it blow up in their face or something? This Ability SUCKS! I want an awesome power dammit!
Just as I said that, rock shards, ice, fire, and wind started to circle around me like a merry go round, and then line up in front of me in a neat order. I felt it circulate faster and faster, and as I watched it circulate, it went even faster.
"Huh? No way, that's impossible! No ESPer can wield no more than one ability. Does that mean... Your ability is Multi-Skill?"
Shokuhou replied with a surprised look.
"...Multi-Skill...?"
Is that the ability to wield more than one ability? Wait. The definition is the name, like Rage-Quit... Err, what did I get myself into... I rubbed my face, to confirm this is real I touched it. Bad choice. The ball of water, ice, fire, wind, and whatever else in this ball of doom launched itself and separated in the air like a missile that shoots mini-missile projectiles.
"What the? I barely touched it!"
"Uuuuu... After HIM!"
The Rank 5 commanded.
The followers replied silently, then began to run, at me.
Jouichi's POV: Acadamy City, District 7
I'm running. Running away from a LARGE group of girls. This sucks! They're after me because of that girl! First, it's delinquents. Now it's ESPer girls? What's next, Fangirls? Oh, don't kid yourself man! You're the averageJapanese guy who just transferred here. How are you going to get a fanbase, let alone fangirls.
I thought to myself, the pain in my head finally subdued, as it felt like it bursted out of my head.
I then herd the running stop, asking myself,
Why did they stop? Did something happen?
It can only be answered with the next few words that came out of the croud's mouth.
"Eek! It's Kazegami-sama!"
"Ehh! What the-"
"Kyaa! He talked to us!" The girls squealed in a high pitched voice.
Wha- They turned into actual... FAN GIRLS! Even the look in their eyes speak serious business.
"NOOOO! I. DON'T. WANT. THIIIISSSSS!"
I began to run… Again.
