Taysuke sat in the warm darkness of the underground in a tiny little hole he had carved out for himself. The only light source was coming from a small hole in the roof he made so that he could have oxygen whilst he figured out what to do next. He looked at his shoulder then shook his head "Oh yeah, I can't see in here, silly me" he whimpered, before screaming as he tried to move his hurt shoulder, and just heard more snapping from his bones. You would think when your bones are so weak and frequently snapping that you would get used to the pain of having your bones shattered and snapped, but you don't. Something Taysuke was finding out very clearly, especially recently. "Worst… day… ever…" He groaned, before closing his tired eyes and drifting off to sleep.


"Pure hatred huh? I can relate." Accelerator said, glaring as he tightened his grip around this Misaka clone's throat. "I don't know what happened to you people… but where the hell is last order?"

"Misaka….. 18122 won't… relay sensitive operation information…. Must eliminate… all scientific filth… Misaka 18122 growled… struggling to breath"

"If that is the case then…" Accelerator growled, before he closed his eyes, and worked his ability as that Misaka clone's throat collapsed in on itself. It had been a while since he last killed one of these things, and it didn't feel anywhere near as fulfilling as he remembered. He dropped the body as he felt a huge wave of guilt come over him, he had just killed something he promised he would never kill again. "Stupid." He groaned before spitting on the floor and slipping his hands into his pockets. "Thankfully whatever has happened to the Misaka Network hasn't hurt my calculation abilities… still." Accelerator glanced back at the dead body on the floor, feeling worse the more he looked at the poor clone.

"How did killing Misaka feel? Was it how you always dreamed?"

Accelerator's gaze quickly shot up to see another Misaka clone. This one though had life in her eyes, and was capable of displaying emotions given her sick little smile. She was also well… much less flat than the others. "Surprisingly unsatisfying. But you can feel what Last Order is feeling right?"

Misaka Worst frowned "Misaka doesn't feel anything. It is like Last Order is unconscious. Why do you care about her but not Misaka? Misaka has been attacked a lot by these clones, but you only care about the loli you pedo. You are lucky Misaka can and has disconnected from that Misaka network though, there was some bad signals there."

"Shut up, you can handle yourself. Now let's go, people will probably be expecting us." Accelerator said, tucking his hands into his pockets and moving straight past Misaka Worst. He wanted to get as far away from that body as possible, and if anymore clones showed up, Sororicide via Misaka was always an option… that or just you know… not killing them.


"Okay… so my legs are a-okay, my arms are fine and my right shoulder has never been better. This left shoulder though… probably not so good." Taysuke said, having recovered from his little pain nap. He would probably prefer to sit in here all day, feeling hurt both physically and emotionally. He would accept being betrayed and called 'parasite' by any other Misaka clone but dammit but not from 15360. He was gonna figure out what had happened right now, even if he oxendebalaba-whatevers hadn't begun healing his arm. "Who needs shoulders? I am a level 5 dammit!" Taysuke growled, as he made the ground move around him, rising him back to the surface. Granted he didn't know specifically what being a level 5 meant, just that it meant he was pretty strong. Probably strong enough to knock 15360 unconscious, which was part one of his master plan.

Taysuke popped up out of the ground, blinking and rubbing his eyes as they adjusted to light being a thing again. He tried to rub his eyes with both of his arms, but the second he tried to move her left arm his shoulder made more cracking noises and he cried out in pain. "Damn shoulder!" He cried out, before having his first look at it, and it wasn't good. "Shoulders aren't supposed to be covered in blood….. nor are they supposed to be spikey with bones almost pushing out of my skin are they? Awwww and that sweater is all covered in blood now. Chubby Misaka is gonna kill me next time she sees me… if this shoulder doesn't. Can shattered shoulders kill you?... Dammit I miss 15360, she would have told me if they could by now." Taysuke felt his tear ducts begin to activate again, but he shook his head and trudged forward, moving slowly so he didn't move his shoulder at all.

So…. the big problem with Taysuke's plan was that he didn't know where 15360 had gone… or really where he was. He had a terrible sense of direction, and that was hurting him almost as badly as his shoulder was. Heck he hadn't even seen any other Misaka clones at all, and with all of the civilians either evacuated or probably electrocuted it was like he was in a ghost town. Taysuke could only hear his slow footsteps scuffing along the ground, until he heard a feminine voice ask "Hey… what are you doing out here? Shouldn't you have evacuated by now you idiot?"

Taysuke turned, to see a girl. One with red hair, with two pink bows in it. She was standing on top of a traffic light, her arms crossed as she looked down at him. "Well what are you doing out here then?"

"Rounding up idiots that are still out here despite the warning siren….. now answer my question."

"Well…. maybe I am doing the same, I seem to have found an idiot." Taysuke replied, poking his tongue out at the girl before going to cross his arms, and only getting another crunch and sharp wave of pain as his shoulder cried out again. He grabbed it with his right arm as he stumbled backwards and loudly screamed in pain before falling over backwards. "Damn shoulder." He groaned, staring into the afternoon sky before the girl approached, bending over to stare at him.

"And what happened to that shoulder huh? Did the big boy fall over or something?" She said very condescendingly. However as she stared at him she twitched a little, like she noticed something. "Wait… you look kinda familiar… like someone I know. And that… do you actually own that sweater or is that Sissy's?"

"I don't know anyone called Sissy, so no it isn't theirs." Taysuke said, not bothering to get up off of the asphalt road. "Also I broke my arm because my friend electrocuted me there when I was trying to be nice to her. Kinda broke my heart actually."

"Huh…. I know that feeling sadly." The redhead said, looking into the sky longingly before shaking her head. "Anyway, the situation has been cleared. All of the clones attacking the city suddenly left, like they were given commands to. And I have been told to take civilians to safety. So it is time to go mister."

"The name is Taysuke miss whoever you are. And I am an esper not a civilian, so like go yourself."

"Oh an esper huh? Too bad level 0, 1 and 2 chumps like yourself count as civilians in emergency situations. So come with Kuroko then."

Taysuke didn't even respond at first. He just reached into his pocket, grabbing a card from his pocket and throwing it at the girl's face. Or he tried to anyway, it just fluttered away from her down the road a little. So with a sigh, Taysuke channelled his power, and made the asphalt ground around him move. A fully functioning hand appeared from the ground, grabbing the card and offering it to the rather surprised looking girl. "See, read it. I am not a chump so mehhhh" and he poked her tongue out at her.

Kuroko grabbed the esper clearance card, and almost dropped it again when she read it. "L-l-level five? Y... you are a level five? How? I…. how did you become a level five?"

"I was created and became one." Taysuke simply replied as the girl tucked his card right back into his pocket. "So like…. can you actually help me if you aren't busy. Cause my shoulder sucks right now."

"Yeah…. Yeah I can see." She said, staring at his bloody, completely misshapen shoulder. "But… I still need to take you somewhere, just somewhere different. So then get ready."

"Get ready for what?" he asked, as he felt the girl touch his arm. Suddenly he went from lying on the middle of a road staring up at a sun setting sky to being on the smooth floor of some sort of building staring up at the roof. The sudden change of scenery caused him to jump in shock, which of course made him move that shoulder which once again caused him to cry out in pain.

"Hey sissy, you look fabulous in the shirt today. And whilst I would love to stay here and admire your lovely look today I simply must go. But can you please look after this guy on the ground here? His shoulder is pretty bad. Anyway, bye bye." This girl seemed to be talking in a much different tone now, and Taysuke watched as she disappeared suddenly, like she could teleport or something… and now it made sense to him.

Taysuke just lay there, as a familiar voice said "Oh god, it is you again." And he was soon met with a very familiar face. It was a cute face, with nice brown hair. It was Misaka, the chunkier one Taysuke had met earlier today, and she was still in that frog t-shirt.

"Oh…. Hi chubby Misaka you are here. Sorry if I damaged your…" Taysuke was cut off as he was on the end of a painful and sudden slap, one that left a mark right on his cheek. Today really was his worst day ever.
