Ready to go!

Academy City, a Japanese city of several schools and institutions of higher learning from kindergarten to university level that learn side-by-side along with the scientists who research on psychic powers and higher technology. It is the most advanced city in the world and its technology is said to be 30 years ahead of the world. People are really impressed and assured to send their children here. There wasn't anything to worry about. Sanitary, education, security, etc ... in the good condition. But something bad happened. The city became unstable when Anti-Skill Department failed to protect the city from the threats. Skill-Out were rampaging with its illegal activities. The Directors of Board didn't take actions to improve the situation. Even if somebody rose up agains, it wasn't enough to return to old way. Did the city of 2 milion citizens fall?

19h33, Tokiwadai School Dormitory

The hall was empty and dark. Of course, students weren't allowed to go out on evening. Still there were voices coming out the rooms and lights going through the doors. One door suddenly opened and two girls walked out, looking both sides.

"Nobody is here." The girl with curly pigtails said. "Do you really want to leave the city with all the beautiful memories here? I don't feel well about that decision."

The girl next to her didn't answered. She picked rusted keys and dived fingers in her light brown hair. Her face looked little confused.

"Don't tempt me, Kuroko. I know you want us to stay longer." The girl was looking sadly at the door sign. "Look what happened. We can't stay anymore. You understand that."

"O-Onee-sama..."

Misaka Mikoto locked up the door and put the keys in the bag. Kuroko stood still, calmed. It looked like Mikoto didn't want to say farewell but if not, she wouldn't be enough brave to leave and it would be heart-wrenching. Then...

"You should go, I will follow later. I just want to be here ... alone." Mikoto tried to smile brightly to ensure Kuroko.

"Don't worry, Onee-sama. I always will be with you."

Her action was heartwarming when she came closer to hug Mikoto. The Ace of Tokiwadai was such surprised and patted her kouhai head. She heard some sobbing.

"You're crying, aren't you?"

"No, no ... I've got a dust in my eyes." Kuroko tried to deny her feelings. Mikoto grinned lightly. It could be little odd but she was happy. Whatever happen, they will overcome it. They looked each other so long then suddenly there was a loud noise outside. Kuroko startled and tilted from window to investigate it. One car parked near the dormitory and one dark-haired girl came out.

"Nice timing, Saten-san. What a romantic moment did I have." Kuroko mumbled and waved back. She turned back, winked.

"See you later, Onee-sama."

After that, Kuroko grabbed the luggages and in a blink, she disappeared. With Level 4 Teleporter, it was a piece of cake. Mikoto, now alone in the floor, sighed. She tried to think about something happy and forget the reality. 4 years passed and many things happened. She leaned to the wall and started whistling. She was looking around and suddenly her eyes met the number sign on. Number 208 was her room where she met her friends first time. How she can forget about it. But the time had come, she had to leave.

"But first..."

CRACK*

At the moment, she used the force and took down the sign.

"May she forgive me for that." She apologized to the certain dorm woman and started rushing to stairs, down to the main floor.

"You look dirty, let me... clean you up."

Mikoto stopped in midway and used her shirt. She was giggling.

"Now that is better."

The certain electromaster put that piece of metal in the purse and continued her steps. Now she was heading to new journey with a lot of surprises. The journey of her life. Those doors in front of her were for that certain purpose.

HONK HONK*

"For the sake of science, I'm coming!!!."
