AN: Please note that I probably will not be updating as often as I am now. This is just because I have some fresh ideas, and I wanna get them out there before I forget. Also, as for the comment questioning the two people who opened windows, let me explain.

Kamijou was on the 3rd floor when he jumped out. Yomikawa grabbed his ankle, so his face slammed into the window on floor 2, directly below his classroom. Then, the aforementioned girl opened that window for him. And as for who that person was, it's a secret.

Anyways, enjoy the story!

..

"Oh, come on!"

Saten Ruiko, middle schooler. Current level, 0. Earlier that day, ten minutes after the bell, to be exact, she had asked to go to the nurse's office due to a stomachache. Instead, she had snuck out of school, and headed to Judgement's 177th Branch Office, hoping to catch Uiharu in time.

No such luck. Instead, she had ran into an empty building.

Saten sighed, and flopped onto the couch near the entrance. "I was hoping to see that guy, too…"

Then, she perked up, getting an idea. Quickly, she crossed the room to her friend's computer, and opened it. What she saw made her frown.

"What's her username and password?"

Knowing that the hacker had probably put in something memorable, she spammed everything she could think of.

"UiharuKazari, Judgement177, ThermosHand, Level1…" she mumbled as she typed, scratching her head. "This is impossible!"

After a few more minutes, the computer had locked itself, making Saten lean back into the chair in exasperation.

Just as she did, Kuroko teleported into the room. "As expected, Onee-sama's power was so great, it took them 30 minutes to scale it!" she declared proudly, before noticing there was only one other person in the room. And that person wasn't supposed to be here.

"Saten-san? Why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be in school?"

Saten blinked slowly, panicking mentally. "Umm… No school… today?" she finished weakly, her voice trailing off.

Kuroko narrowed her eyes, but her phone started buzzing before she could chase the subject.

"Yes, Uiharu?"

This got Saten's attention. 'Wait, why didn't I find out where she was by our phones?'

"You picked up! Shirai-san, there's someone we're looking for about 30 minutes ago, but he jumped out the third-story window when we got there! He's probably still somewhere in the 7th district, so can you try to find him?"

"Got it. Send me his photo, ok?"

With that, the pigtailed girl flipped her phone closed, and looked over at her other friend, whose eyes were widened. "We'll get back to this later."

Before Saten could react, she flickered off. Of course, from what she heard, there's no way she can stop; this was nothing but a mild obstruction in the face of the greatest mystery of the century!

With this in mind, she ran out the door.

..

Due to his various misadventures in the city which, arguably, has the largest network of alleyways, Touma had grown accustomed to said alleyways, more so than the law-enforcers, or even the thugs that live in them.

Despite that, he still seemed to have an uncanny ability to find dead ends.

"Such Misfortune" the teen cried, looking for a way to continue on before his pursuers caught up. After a second's hesitation, he leaped onto a metal trash can, and caught himself just barely on the fire escape above that, clambering up. Once he regained balance, he tossed himself onto the other side of the fence, and resumed running.

On the original side, two people appeared, one of them panting hard. "Uiharu, where is he now? This is a dead end!"

This was said to a device held by Konori, who was exhausted. The phone delivered a pause, before responding. "Sorry, sensei. The camera just picked him up entering a park one block down. Anyways, I just sent Kuroko out, so we should catch him soon."

Yomikawa, looking as if she hadn't also been running for half an hour without rest, pulled out her own phone. "Hold up, I have an idea." Turning to the other direction, she smiled deviously. "Misaka? Do you want to see the Saviour again?"

"YES, Misaka Misaka agrees happily, as Misaka Misaka jumps up and down on the couch."

"Great, then get Accelerator to look for him, right now. And Yoshikawa, if she's not busy."

"Will do, Misaka Misaka exclaims as Misaka Misaka salutes despite knowing you can't see her!"

Chuckling at her enthusiasm, Yomikawa turns back around to her colleague, whose phone was still open to Uiharu. "Well, we just got three helpers. We might want to find him before the Number One does, though. Otherwise they might fight again. Accelerator'll survive, though, since Kamijou really tries to keep from killing."

"Wh-what…" Uiharu's fearful voice floated through the device, alarmed. "Are you saying he really did beat the Number One?!" Konori paled, her mouth moving silently.

Numerous shouts came from the other side, as well as the occasional sound of Komoe trying to quiet them.

Yomikawa nodded, heading back down the alleyway. Over her shoulder, she tossed one last comment that made Konori turn white as a sheet, before bolting after her senior.

"Yup. I don't think the city will survive another fight, though."

..

"Frenda, Kinuhata, Takitsubo, we have another job!" Mugino called out, sitting lazily on the couch. At this, Frenda poked her head into the room, a questioning look on her face.

"Basically, what is the job?" she asked, her verbal tic appearing once more. Behind her, the two remaining ITEM members nodded silently.

Mugino pointed to the monitor. "This one's from the higher ups. Something about 'magicians' or some crazy shit.

The petite blond tilted her head, confused. "Whaa…? Basically, isn't magic impossible?"

Takitsubo shrugged, heading back to her room to prepare. Kinuhata, however, grinned widely. "Isn't that super awesome!? I mean, it's super magic!"

Mugino sighed, rubbing her forehead. One that's silent, one that's overly excited, and one that's overly curious. "That's correct. They are, apparently, coming in tomorrow. Be prepared, everyone."

"...And Takitsubo, get those stakes out of your bag! They are MAGICIAN'S, not VAMPIRES!"

..

I realize that, based on the stories I've read, Frenda's probably died in the novel. HOWEVER, this is based off of the anime and manga, so what the heck.
