Hey, guys, thanks for the support and for reading a Certain Scientific Counter thank you for the comments it really helps me get new ideas for the series. I hope you enjoy.

Whwsms- Touma's not actually a Gemstone he was just labeled as one because it was a convenient excuse, Though technically he could be considered a Gemstone as the only real prerequisite for being a Gemstone is that you can produce an AIM field or have abilities that are AIM based, which he can but only through another medium. Also, Seria didn't actually physically kill anyone she was just apart of the team who did. She was never really the front line fighter type. She was just apart of the information gathering team.

Emque- Thanks, a certain white-haired boy (Accelerator) I wonder who it could be.

Awardedall- No problem.

Fortitude501- Oh the reason I can update so fast is that I'm always one chapter ahead and I only publish the previous chapter when I'm done with the next. Thank you for the compliment I hope I can keep giving you content that you'll enjoy.

Savior555- I hope you enjoy.

BlueJack22- You don't know the half of it.

MarkGib- All is fair in love and war but Lessar is the type of person who would take that to the next level.

Guest: Thank you for your support. And I'll try.

The crack shipping guy- I know right.

Guest: Touma did not lose all of his memories but he is not telling Misaki the truth about how much he did lose.

Ultra Instinct Shaggy- Thank you for the high praise I didn't know that my writing has come to a level where you would have to exert yourself so much to be able to destroy it. Thank you.

More Misfortune

July 18

5:00 PM

As Touma entered the Seventh Mist Mall with the little girl he was still thinking about everything that had just happened today. He just found out that he did have an AIM even if it was someone else's, but he couldn't get the feeling that he forgot something important about Nayuta. He felt uneasy not knowing what had actually happened that summer. Misaki did her best to fill in the gaps for Touma but there was only so much that she was actually there for. Touma remembered that she said that he had saved her but from who? As these questions raced through Touma's mind however he did not notice the little girl drag him into a department in the mall, in fact, he didn't even realize that he was in a store.

"What's the matter Onii-chan," the little girl said while tugging on his arm

'Onii-chan huh, I guess it's alright my cousin calls me that all the time anyway'

"Yeah everything's fine, I was just thinking that's all"

"About what"

"Uh" suddenly an image of Zapper popped in his mind with that smug look on her face, "girl problems"

"Girl problems?" The little girl then tilted her head in confusion on what he would have meant.

"Anyway what are you looking to buy here"

"OHH! I wanna buy a dress and some shorts"

"Okay that sounds like a plan what kind of shorts are you looking for"

"Brown ones just like Tokiwadai Onee-chan'

"What, you know somebody from Tokiwadai?"

"Yeah, she's nice. She helped me find my bag see!" The girl then presented to Touma her pink colored backpack.

"Well, I'm sure she must be nice." 'Unlike a certain Zapper, I know'

"Okay I'm gonna go look for some right now!" The little girl exclaimed as she ran through the store like a bat out of hell.

'Guess she's excited'

As Touma wandered aimlessly throughout the department store mall he caught a glimpse of a certain brown haired girl stealthy taking a pair of children's pajamas and running off. Touma thinking that this was a brazen attempt at theft, decided to go confront the girl. However, once he followed her to the mirror he quickly realized that it was actually Zapper.

"Oh god, what the hell are you doing?" Touma spat out.

This immediately sent Zapper in a frenzy as she jumped backward and spun around to hide the pajamas behind herself.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!" Misaka screamed.

"Well I was thinking that somebody was trying to steal those pajamas but, it turns out that you're just too embarrassed to admit to your tastes" Touma replied.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY!"

"Onii-chan! Look!" The little girl shouted.

Suddenly both of them turned around to see the little girl approach them with a pair of brown shorts in hand.

"OH! TOKIWADAI ONEE-CHAN!"

'You've got to be kidding me. She's the one that she was talking about!'

"Onii-chan huh? I didn't know you had a sister."

"Good because I don't Zapper. She was just having some trouble finding this mall, so I helped her out." Touma spat out.

After Zapper and the little girl started talking Touma thought he could use this chance to escape but, part of his conscious told him not to leave a small child near an electrical outlet.

"Hey, Idiot. Since your here we can finally settle our...MWA HA HA" Misaka started to say with a dark aura starting to form around her.

While this was going on the little girl interpreted there meeting very differently.

'Girl Trouble!'

"Jeez you really do have a one track mind don't you, do you really want to."

"No! Stop fighting!" The little girl said while jumping in the middle of them with small tears in her eyes.

This stunned both Touma and Misaka as the last thing either of them wanted was to see a little girl cry.

"No we weren't fighting," Misaka said while comforting the small innocent child.

"Yeah she's right, honest we were just having a conversation."

"But… she called you an idiot and you called her zapper" the little girl said with tears now becoming ever more prevalent.

"No those were just nicknames we gave each other right," Misaka said turning to Touma.

"Yeah, totally so can you stop crying, please."

"But you were yelling at each other and." the little girl softly said.

"Honestly were good friends right," Touma said looking at Misaka.

"Yeah, in fact, were best friends"

'Seriously! Laying it on a bit thick don't you think'

"Really?" The little girl said while wiping away her tears.

"Yeah"

"You should try to get along better" The little girl stated.

"We'll try. For now, I'm gonna go get out of your way. I'll wait for you by the door okay." Touma said while trying to make his escape.

"Aren't you gonna say goodbye to Tokiwadai Onee-chan"

"Oh right… Bye" 'What was her name again'

"Yeah bye…." 'What was his name again?'

"Misaka-san?" A young girls voice called out from behind them.

'Guess that answers that question'

When Touma turned around he saw two middle school girls walking towards them. One was a small girl who sports short black hair and has golden-brown eyes with a headband of flowers on her head while the other girl had blue eyes and long black hair with a small, white flower on the left side of her hair.

"Uiharu, Saten what are you doing here" Misaka muttered out as she began to turn red.

"What are you talking about Misaka you're the one who suggested we shop here, remember," Satan said while tilting her head.

"Judgement Onee-chan!" The little girl screamed while she ran to hug Uiharu.

"Who was that guy who just ran off Misaka?" Uiharu said while pointing at the currently fleeing Touma.

"Don't know just some guy."

"But didn't you say you were best friends," The little girl said while looking at Misaka.

Suddenly Uiharu and Saten both turned to face Misaka.

"Well, you see... I gotta go to the bathroom!" Misaka replied as she made a dash for the bathroom.

Uiharu and Saten then looked at each other.

"You don't think that there..."

"Maybe. We'll have to ask Shirai".

Once Touma finally made his way to the exit of the seventh mist mall one singular thought came to his mind.

'For the love of all that is good in the world please don't let the word of what just happened ever come to Misaki'

Touma then started to catch his breath again until he heard his phone ring. When he went to see who it was the caller ID all but laughed in his face.

'Golden Girl'.

'At this point, I just think you like watching me suffer!'

Touma then went to answer his phone "Hey Misaki" 'Please let this be about something else'

"Touma…. We need to talk".

'Oh God, she Knows!'

"Look Misaki I swear it wasn't what it looked like."

"Huh… What are you talking about?"

"... What are you talking about."

"Look Touma whatever you think I'm calling about I'm not. There's just something I need to tell you. When are you going to be back at your dorm?"

"Umm in a bit, I'm just helping a little girl go shopping"

"Oh is that what you think I would've been mad about. You give me far to little credit my Prince, I trust you".

'I just don't trust that old hag not to weasel her way into your life.'

"Thanks, Misaki. By the way, do you know anyone by the name of Nayuta?"

"Huh. No why?"

'I guess I helped her when Misaki wasn't around.'

"Nothing just a name that I heard in passing."

"Are you sure?"

Touma wanted to tell her about Nayuta, but he knew if told Misaki that he met her during the summer break which he had lost it would only bring back the pain that was in Misaki. He remembered when he saw her in the hospital room how she looked so sad and could not bring himself to bring that pain into her life again.

"Yeah, I'm sure. I'll see you later"

"Okay then bye my Prince"

Touma then hung up the phone and leaned on the wall to the Seventh Mist Mall.

"I wonder what she wants to talk to me about?" Touma murmured to himself.

Just as Touma was finishing that thought he heard the sound of people being evacuated from the mall.

'What the hell is going on!'

Touma then pushed against the crowd to get back inside of the mall he remembered that he left the little girl inside of there and had to be sure that she got out okay. Touma ran up the stairs to the mall to the level he last saw the little girl at when he saw Zapper.

"Hey Zapper! Where's the kid!"

"Huh? She's not with you!?"

Just then they saw the little girl run up to Uiharu with some sort of frog plushie in her hand.

'There she is' Touma thought.

'Wait a minute wasn't that the plushie that guy had!?' Misaka thought.

As soon as the little girl got within arms reach of Uiharu she yanked the Plush frog out of her hands and threw it across the room and yelled.

"GET OUT OF HERE! THAT'S THE BOMB!"

At that moment both Misaka and Touma made a dash towards the plush toy which was now collapsing into itself in the shape of a black orb. Misaka went into her pocket to grab an arcade token to use her railgun to blow the plush doll away but at the last second, her finger slipped. Just as she thought she was done for Touma jumped in front of all of them and stuck both of his hands in front of him to try to cover the bomb.

*BOOOOOOM!*

*REVERB*

However, the way Touma positioned his body his left hand was in the front so the sound of something reverbing could be heard, but before the explosion could be launched Touma clenched his left fist.

….

The entire area where the bomb exploded had left a giant scorch mark showing that the bombing was successful even the window to the mall shattered. If you were looking from the outside it would have seemed as though the bombing was a success however that was the furthest thing from the truth. On the other side of where the bombing took place the scorch marks on the floor, all led to one area. Touma's left hand.

At first, Touma looked around behind him to check if the girls were okay and a huge wave of relief hit him when they were. He then looked over at Misaka and noticed she was staring at him. Touma then looked over at his left hand still balled up into a fist and started to wonder.

'Didn't Nayuta say whenever I ball up my left fist the AIM would disappear?'

'Wait a minute I didn't hear a second explosion from my counter does that mean.'

Touma's face then began to turn ghostly pale as he suddenly came to the realization.

'I HAVE A BOMB IN MY HAND!'

"AHHHHHHHHH!" Touma screamed as he ran right straight for the exit of the mall realizing the predicament that he currently found himself in.

While this was happening Uiharu and the little girl assumed that Misaka was the one who saved them and didn't notice Touma as he ran away.

As Touma made it out of the mall while still screaming multiple thoughts raced through his head.

'OH GOD IS THIS HOW I DIE. WHAT'S IT GONNA SAY ON MY GAVE, BLEW HIMSELF UP LIKE THE DUMBASS HE IS.'

"OH GOD, Oh god, oh god," Touma said as he was starting to hyperventilate.

"I gotta call Misaki! NO Kamijou! Calling her is like giving up".

At this point, Touma found himself in the park running like a madman eventually stopping in the middle of the fields.

'Okay, Kamijou think this isn't the end for you. There's gotta be a way out of this right?'

Touma then sat there in the middle of the field rocking back and forth like a complete lunatic while bystander just looked away from him and continued to walk by him.

'Okay think, maybe if I open my hand a bomb won't come out? WHO AM I KIDDING WITH MY LUCK IT'S GONNA BLOW HALF A CITY BLOCK ALONG WITH ME!'

'Oh come on man I never even got to experience the full 'joys of youth' what kind of messed up ending is this'

"This is all your fault left hand! If it wasn't for you I wouldn't have a theoretical bomb strapped to me" Touma said while looking at his left hand with a death glare.

"If you were more like Imagine breaker over here than none of this would have happened in the first place…. Did I really just try to make my left hand feel bad by comparing it to my right" Touma then lowered his head in deep despair.

"Wait a minute Imagine Breaker" Touma then looked over at his right hand.

"Please god let this work" Touma then slowly moved his right hand towards his left in hopes that it would.

*Shatter*

The sound of glass breaking was heard when he made contact with his left hand.

Touma slowly started to open his hand.

"Here goes nothing." When Touma finally fully open his hand…. Nothing.

"YAAAAAAAAAAA!" Touma then thanked every god he knew of while jumping for joy.

"HAHAHAHAHA" Touma began to feel liberated like a huge weight just got lifted from his shoulders.

After cooling off for a bit to calm down (Which took a full 20 minutes) Touma walked through the park humming his favorite tune.

"HMM MMM HMM 🎶"

Just while he was about to pass a certain vending machine a certain Zapper made her appearance.

"GAH! Ambushed again" Touma said with fear in his voice.

"You angry?" Misaka said while leaning on the vending machine.

"What about the ambush? Nah, considering how good things were going for just a few minutes ago it would've weird if something like this didn't happen."

"Huh? No, I mean that everyone seems to think that I'm the one who saved the day from the Graviton bombings. If you come forward you'll be a hero".

"Who cares"

"Huh"

"If everyone made it out of their okay isn't that what matters. Does it really matter who saved them?"

"Who cares," Misaka said to herself. "Quit trying to act cool!"

"Uh oh" Touma then started to run away for dear life.

"WAIT THIS ISN'T OVER!"

"Oh come on! Such misfortune!"

After running for about an hour Misaka finally managed to stop Touma and corner him in an alley.

"Oh god. I survived a suicide bomb only to meet my end at the business end of a…" Touma said as he lowered his head and started to raise his right hand for protection.

"Oh shut up! I wasn't gonna try to fight you".

Touma then raise his head "Really?"

"No! Just come with me." Touma then looked at Misaka with eyes full of doubt.

"Liar! You're probably gonna take me to the edge of the district to some abandoned warehouse with a mysterious grave dug out!"

"What are you talking about!?"

Touma had just recently watched a bunch of mobster movies with Misaki at their last date night so this idea was still fresh inside his mind.

"GAAH! Fine what if I promise to stop trying to fight you for a week."

Touma thought about, lately, he's been so preoccupied with planning his revenge and dodging Misaka that he hasn't been spending much time with Misaki. Even if this was a trap he couldn't pass up the opportunity that was laid in front of him.

"Deal" Touma then raised his right hand in order to get a handshake from Misaka to confirm their deal.

Once she shook his hand he noticed her looking strangely at his hand.

"You just tried to shock me again didn't you?"

"Shut up! Just follow me."

After the two started to walk for a bit Touma began to wonder where she was taking him.

"So where are we going anyway?" Touma asked.

"To Judgement 177 Branch Offices"

Judgment 177 Branch Offices

After the entire Graviton bombing incident, the entire office was filled to the brim with every judgment agents most hated adversary Judgements jurisdiction only covered school grounds they were forced to do a ludicrous amount of paperwork before they would be able to go home. The office currently held four individuals Shirai Kuroko, Uiharu Kazari, Konori Mii, and Saten Ruiko all of which (except Saten) were completely tired.

"How many does that make Konori-senpai," Uiharu said while handing her another completed document

"That makes 5" Konori replied.

"And how many do we have left?" Shirai questioned.

"15 more documents Shirai"

"UHHHHH. How much longer are you guys gonna take I've been waiting here for hours" Saten complained.

"You know, you don't actually have to be here Saten. In fact, you're not even supposed to be here." Shirai snapped back.

"I know but…" Before Satan could finish they were interrupted by the sound of someone pounding on the door.

"Who could that be," Konori asked as she turned to Shirai.

Before anyone could answer the door was kicked in by Misaka.

"Onee-sama! You've come to save me!" Shirai screamed out as she began to run over to her like she was her knight in shining armor but before she could a second person entered the room it was a boy with black spiky hair. She stopped dead in her tracks.

"And who might this be?" Konori asked while turning around from her desk.

All four girls then fully abandoned their jobs of completing the paperwork in order to see who Misaka had brought them.

"Hi, my name's….Tsuchimikado Pierce" The boy with spiky black hair said with very little confidence. 'There is no way in hell that I'm telling them my real name'

'Why does that name sound so familiar?' Mikoto thought.

"Why hello there Mr. Tsuchimikado are you an acquaintance of Onee-sama," Shirai said calmly hiding the true rage she held deep inside.

'Onee-sama?' Touma thought to himself.

"I guess you can say that," Touma said.

"Wait you don't mean?" Saten gasped as she then turned to Uiharu to confirm if she thought her suspicions were true.

"What are you two talking about," Shirai said while releasing a dark aura pointed directly at Uiharu.

Uiharu being the weaker of the two quickly folded and told Shirai.

"We saw Misaka and Tsuchimikado here talk at the Seventh Mist mall Today!" Uiharu cried out.

"Oh yeah, how's the little girl?" Touma asked.

"Oh She's fine we had the judgment agent from her school district escort her home she should be fine," Uiharu explained.

Shirai was at a loss for words 'They were talking…. That means he and Onee-sama…...No, no way would she go for someone like this ape!'

"That's good to hear sorry I wasn't able to see her off, I had a crisis of my own to deal with," Touma said while rubbing the back of his head.

"Anyway, what brings you by judgment at this hour anyway?" Konori asked.

"Yeah, that's what I would like to know to" Shirai snapped as she glared at Touma.

"Yeah the reason I brought him here was-" Misaka began to say before she was interrupted by Touma.

"No, let me," Touma said reassuringly as he put his right hand on Misaka's shoulder. This instantly made her cheeks turn pink.

"Look the reason we came here was to clear the air."

Touma should have chosen his words a bit more carefully. Instantly everyone in the room came to the same conclusion.

'No way!'

"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!" Misaka screamed as her entire face turned red.

"Look I know it's embarrassing but you were the one who wanted this. " Touma said as he turned to Misaka.

"Onee-sama and this ape no way!" Shirai muttered out as her entire world was crumbling around her.

"Look you shouldn't blame Misaka for this, I mean it was kinda my fault too." Touma should really choose his word more carefully.

"Misaka no way! Why didn't you tell us!" Saten screamed.

At this point, Misaka was at a loss for words.

"Well, it's kinda embarrassing so that's probably why she didn't say anything" Touma answered on Misaka's behalf.

"No way! Misaka how long has this been going on!?" Uiharu demanded to know.

Misaka was still frozen in embarrassment so Touma answered on her behalf again.

"Well, it's been going on for about a month now give or take a couple of days" Touma answered.

"So all this time..." Shirai muttered as she felt herself start to faint.

"Well...how did you two meet," Konori asked trying to be as supportive as possible and hiding the fact that she was in utter shock too at the turn of events.

"Well, we met one day when a bunch of thugs were trying to talk to Zapper over here and I went over to help her and … Let's just say sparks flew everywhere." It was at this point in time that Touma was declared denser than osmium.

'Zapper, no way they already have pet names for each other!' Saten thought to herself.

At this point, Shirai began to release a vicious amount of dark aura around her she slowly started to snap back into reality. However, Touma didn't notice.

"So with that, I hope you won't punish her too much," Touma said as he bowed his head to the Judgement officers. "Hey Zapper come on you gotta bow too" Touma whispered to the frozen Misaka.

"No, you really don't need to apologize for this, I mean" Konori muttered out.

"Huh, but I thought Judgement frowned upon this kinda stuff?" Touma asked.

"Well we don't exactly…...with a boy…...ahem as long as you don't do anything of that sort of nature in public I'm sure it should be fine," Konori said while her face was turning red.

"Huh seriously!" Touma was shocked that they were okay with Misaka challenging him to a fight every time they saw each other.

'You've gotta be kidding me, what kind of judgment officers are these?'

"Well since that's everything, I guess I should be heading off now." However, before Touma could leave he was intercepted by Saten who grabbed his arm.

"Wait a minute you can't just drop a bomb like that on us and then leave! We have tons of questions!"

"Like what exactly?"

"Well for instance what level are you? You would have to be impressive to make someone like Misaka take an interest in you." Uiharu jumped in.

"Oh me I'm a level 0"

"EHHHH, No way!"

"Yeah, is it that much of a shock?" Touma asked as he saw the entire room was in shock except for Misaka who was still frozen.

'Well for someone like Misaka to…. No offense or anything I'm a level 0 too, it's just a little jarring you know" Saten said.

Touma knew that it was out of an ordinary for a level 0 to be able to fight on par with a high-level esper.

"Yeah well, levels don't matter that much to me," Touma said.

"Of course, love transcends all levels" Uiharu declared.

'Uh, I guess that's one way to put it.'

"Well like I said I gotta be somewhere soon so bye," Touma said as he waved the judgment officers off. When he passed the still frozen Misaka he told her "You better keep your end of the promise Zapper".

As he finally exited the building he felt a shiver run down his spine.

"Why do I get the feeling this isn't over. Such Misfortune."

Once Touma had left the building the entire Judgement office was in complete chaos. Everyone bombarded Misaka with questions about her secret boyfriend except for Shirai who at this point was in utter despair and was lying on the couch contemplating where it all went wrong. It was at this point Misaka was beginning to come too.

"B B B… BOYFRIEND!" Misaka screamed as everyone in the room began to slowly back away from her.

"THAT IDIOT! He tricked me!"

"What do you mean Misaka?" Uiharu asked.

"I didn't bring him over for that. I brought him over to say that he was the one who really stopped the Graviton bomb that went off in the Mall Today".

At this point, Shirai began to come out of her state of depression and self-loathing and began to sit up straight.

"Wait, Onee-sama, you mean that you and that ape aren't having a secret relationship"

"OF COURSE NOT!" Misaka screamed as small sparks of electricity were coming out of her and her cheeks turned red.

"Then what was he talking about?" Saten asked.

"I guess he was talking about how I would challenge him to a fight every time I see him" Misaka answered.

"Wait you were challenging a level 0 to a fight every day for the past month!" Konori said as she scolded Misaka.

"What it wasn't like I could do anything to the guy, he beats me every time"

"Wait you're telling me a level 0 beat you," Saten said in shock.

"Yeah every time I would throw my electricity at him he would just negate it, it was only recently that I learned that he could shoot my electricity back at me!"

"No way! He's the guy. There's an Urban Legend about a guy who could negate other abilities! The whole being able to shoot stuff back out is news to me though. Ugh, why didn't I stop him I have so many other questions for him" Saten said as she mentally kicked herself for not stopping him.

"Don't worry Saten we can just look him up in the database remember" Uiharu explained as she jumped on the computer to look up the boy that they had just met.

"What was his name again?"

"I believe he said it was Tsuchimikado Pierce" Konori answered.

"Okay just give me a minute"

"Hey, Uiharu do you think the database would have any information about his weakness and stuff?" Misaka asked.

"Onee-sama, you seem a bit too excited about looking him up," Shirai said while looking at Misaka with sharp eyes.

"Umm guys…. There's a bit of a problem" Uiharu said.

"What is it Uiharu?" Saten asked.

"There's no one with the name Tsuchimikado Pierce listed in Academy City's database. I even tried spelling it in 7 different ways. I think he gave us an alias."

At this point, the entire room turned to Misaka who was giving off a large number of sparks.

"THAT LITTLE…." Misaka then remembered the promise that she made to him and imagined the smug look on his face if she were to break that promise.

At first, Misaka was stuck in between a rock and a hard place. She couldn't find out the boy's name unless she went after him, but she couldn't go after him without breaking her promise.

"Onee-sama are you okay" Misaka then turned to Shirai and a light bulb flickered on inside her head.

"Hey, Kuroko. Do you wanna do me a favor/" Misaka said with a cat-like grin on her face.

"Huh?"

40 minutes later

As Touma walked down the street he couldn't help but feel uneasy. He didn't expect everything to go that smoothly. He was able to catch the bus on time to take him closer to his dorm which in and of itself warranted some concern, but he could tell something bad was about to happen.

His suspicions would be proven true as he made his way to the end of the street and turned the corner to find the same girl he met at the judgment office she had two curly pigtails tied in red bows.

"I finally found you Mr. Tsuchimikado," Shirai said with malice in her voice.

At this Touma instinctively took a step back.

"Uh why are you here"

"Well, it has come to my attention that you not only defiled my precious Onee-sama but you also had the nerve to lie brazenly in front of all of our faces."

'Uh oh'

"Wait a minute how did you know I was lying about my name!"

"Simple, with the resources at Judgements disposal we easily found that your name was a lie," Shirai said while pointing accusingly at Touma.

"Wait a minute you guys tried to pull up my record. I knew it, that's why I didn't tell you guys my real name!"

"Tch! You have the Gaul to stand there and accuse me of anything you ape! Every night Onee-sama would come home late and complain about some guy who she couldn't beat and now you have the nerve to shoot lies at her to make her feel even worse!"

"Look I didn't mean to lie but…. Wait a minute" Touma was suddenly having a revelation.

"YOU KNEW!" Touma Shouted.

This immediately caught Shirai off guard as she did not expect him to yell at her.

"So for the past month while Zapper was harassing me you knew! I thought Zapper bad but you're worse. You gotta be the worst judgment officer of all time or something. I bet you even let her steal from vending machines."

Shirai was silent since she knew that her Onee-sama would occasionally steal from a local vending machine in the park by kicking it. The silence, however, spoke volumes to Touma.

"No Way. It's true!"

"Shut up! I'll have you know my Onee-sama is the darling of Tokiwadai!"

"You sure you don't mean Devil."

At this point, Shirai looked at Touma as if he committed the biggest heresy that she had ever seen.

"Hehehehe" Shirai darkly chuckled.

"Uhhm are you okay?" Touma asked as he was slowly backing up in order to make a run for it.

"You know when Onee-sama asked me to go get you I was a little skeptical at first. I mean to have you anywhere near her makes me sick. But when she told me to bring you back by any means necessary. Well, let's just say she didn't emphasize your personal well-being in her request."

"Wait you can't do that, you're in judgment and I didn't do anything wrong," Touma said as he protested his unfair treatment.

"Oh well," Shirai then began to take off her Judgement armband and put it in her skirt pocket. "I'm not here on behalf of Judgement. I'm here on Behalf of my Onee-sama" Shirai then pulled out her spikes that she kept in a pair on black straps on her thighs.

"Wait a minute what are those?" Touma said as he pointed at the spikes in Shirai's hands.

"Oh, my apologies. We haven't been properly introduced yet, My name is Shirai Kuroko and I'm a level 4 teleporter. However, with these darts here I'm able to displace matter when I teleport them." Shirai teleported a dart directly into the ground in front of Touma. "I should warn you if you try to resist I'll be forced to take drastic measure to ensure my safety, such as I don't know, teleporting one of these inside of you"

Touma couldn't help but shudder at the thought. She was on a completely other level than Misaka. He could usually get away from her by well running away but, that didn't seem to be an option for Shirai since she could teleport herself and not to mention she could teleport that thing inside of Touma.

"Okay fine you win." Touma then raised his hands in defeat.

"Hmph. I would've hoped you put up more of a fight but alas." Shirai said as she walked up to Touma and placed her hand on him.

"..."

"..."

"Uh, what's happening?" Touma questioned.

"Why isn't my ability working!"

"Oh sorry that me because of my ability things that affect my entire body, such as teleportation won't work on me."

'Wait a minute if she can't teleport than I could…... Nope can't do it' Touma contemplated hitting Shirai but couldn't bring himself to as that would make him lower than trash.

"I guess we're gonna have to walk back," Touma said.

"Ahhh! Do you even know how far away from the Judgement office we are!"

"I don't know? I mean I took a bus here."

"Yeah well I teleported here and it still took me over 30 minutes to get here even when we tracked you down"

"How did you guys do that anyway?" Shirai then pointed at a security camera.

"There always watching you know."

"So much for Big Brother caring."

"So are we going or not," Touma asked.

"Well we're gonna have to get a Taxi," Shirai said.

"Do you have any money?"

Shirai then realized due to all the commotion she forgot to grab her purse from the judgment office.

"Hey, could you spot me?"

"Are you seriously asking you captive to loan you some money"

Shirai simply answered with a sharp glare.

"Ugh even if I wanted to I don't have any cash. I'm a level 0 remember, we aren't exactly swimming in cash you know." Touma said as he showed her the contents of his wallet. It was barren, to say the least. Shirai, however, took this opportunity to grab his wallet and look at his ID.

"Kamijou Touma. No wonder you lied about your name".

"Hey!" Touma then grabbed his wallet back.

"Fine, I guess we're going to have to walk."

"Sure …. Wait didn't you say you went to Tokiwadai?"

"Yes, what does that have to do with anything?"

Ever since Touma went out with Misaki she gave him a crash course about life in the dorms and there would always be one monster in all of her stories the Dorm Manager. He never actually saw the dorm manager himself (or maybe he did but never remembered) but the stories that Misaki would tell him would paint her as a straight up demon.

"Don't you guys have a curfew in a little while. Won't your Dorm Manager get mad if you're late."

This immediately made Shirai go pale as she had completely forgotten about curfew.

"How do you know about that!"

"Oh I know somebody who goes there, and they say that if your late by even a minute that the Dorm Manager would do unspeakable horrors to you," Touma said mockingly.

"Well uh, that doesn't matter! As long as I'm able to bring you to Onee-sama that's all that matters!"

"Wait a minute are you saying Zapper is still waiting for us at the Judgement office"

"Of course she is"

"Oh. Well, now I see".

"Now you see what?" Shirai asked.

"How much you actually care about your 'Onee-sama'. I know you don't care about what happens to you, but the fact that you would let 'her' go through the same punishment is just..." Touma then looked away from Shirai and began to shake his head in disapproval.

Shirai then realized that if her Onee-sama were to wait for them to arrive at the judgment office then they would surely be late for curfew and the Dorm manager would.

(Unspeakable Horrors)

"No Onee-sama!"

"Well there is one way you can save her"

"Which is?" Shirai then looked at Touma as though he was about to say something she knew she was not gonna like to hear.

"You could let me go."

"Out of the question, I already promised Onee-sama that I would bring you back to her."

"Okay but, hear me out, say you do drag me back there. Then what. You know she's gonna just try to fight me again and I bet that your fellow judgment officers would find it pretty hard just to look away as she tried to zap me to kingdom come."

"Well... Shut up!" Shirai snapped back at him

"I'm just saying. Besides, it's not my call it's yours. I'll go along with whatever you say. Remember I surrendered. All I'm doing is telling you what's probably gonna happen."

At this point, Shirai was conflicted if she conceded to her Onee-sama's wishes than Misaka would get in trouble from not only the Dorm Manager but also from judgment. However, if she went along with what this boy said then she would be betraying her beloved Onee-sama.

"Fine, you win" Shirai had conceded she couldn't force herself to put her beloved Onee-sama in danger. When she turned to begin to walk back to the Judgement office Touma could see how much this had devastated her, and he could swear that he could even see her beginning to cry.

"Hey hold up!" Touma called out to Shirai. She turned around wiping her face.

"What do you want now, come to gloat"

"No, I wouldn't do that. But I think I have a solution that will have everyone smile in the end".

"What are you talking about?" Shirai asked skeptically.

"Just take out your phone and call Zapper for me"

"Fine" Shirai had to call her anyway so this wasn't much of a bother to her anyway however she was suspicious of Touma's Intention.

The Phone rang three times before Misaka answered.

"Hey, Kuroko did you find him yet or do you want me to ask Uiharu to find him again."

"Hey Zapper," Touma said nonchalantly

"You! Why do you have her phone I swear if you did anything to her I'll-"

"Whoa there Zapper I think you got the wrong idea. You see your friend kinda has me as a hostage and is currently holding me at dart point if I try anything" This immediately caught both Misaka and Shirai off guard.

'She actually got him'

'Why is he lying?'

"Seriously?" Misaka asked.

"Yep. Unlike you, your friend here sure knows how to put the fear of God in me, unlike a certain Zapper I know."

"Ha. I wouldn't act so high and mighty if I were, you are her captive."

"True. So what do you want Zapper?"

"First Tell me your real name."

"Oh yeah. Sorry about that my real name is Kamijou Touma. You can ask your friend here to confirm she's the one who has my ID." Touma then passed the phone to Shirai and nodded.

"Hello, Onee-sama."

"Hey Kuroko good job at catching him. Is what he's saying about his name true?"

"Uhh yes I saw his ID from when I got his wallet"

"Good going, but be sure you give it back to him I don't want you to get in trouble for theft."

"Consider it done" Shirai then handed the phone back to Touma.

"So you convinced yet Zapper"

"Yep. I'm convinced you got beat up by Kuroko, and she took your wallet and you captive as her reward" Misaka taunted. Touma, however, didn't seem to mind.

"So is that everything?"

"No. I want you to agree that the promise we made is null and I can go back to trying to fight you".

"Okay"

"Huh. Really, I half expected you to try to find a way to weasel out of this."

"Nope. It was my fault for lying in the first place and I'm sorry I shouldn't have done that".

"Tch. Fine, you can go now. Put Kuroko back on the phone." Touma complied and handed Shirai the phone.

"Thanks for that Kuroko I mean it."

"It was nothing Onee-sama really I mean-"

"No, seriously I owe you one how about I grab us some takeout from Joseph's on the way back to the dorms. Oh, that reminds go straight back to the dorms I don't want you to miss curfew. I completely forgot. Sorry."

"Don't worry about it" 'A romantic dinner for me and Onee-sama someone pinch me because I must be dreaming'

"Okay, you can let him go now Kuroko I'll see you back at the dorm bye." Misaka hung up the phone.

Shirai then turned to Touma and asked him "Why?"

"Huh, well it kinda was my fault, to begin with"

"Yeah but you could've got away scot-free, why'd you stop me?"

"Do I really need a reason to help someone? You looked as though you were upset and I couldn't just ignore something like that."

"But I just took you hostage aren't you the least bit upset?"

"Not really I mean even if you were out to get me I knew you wouldn't actually kill me"

"How could you have possibly known that!?"

"Well just call intuition, I don't know Zapper that well but I know her well enough to know while she is a bit 'extreme' she's still a good person and you said it yourself you're her friend"

Shirai was shocked by this, any regular person would have just let her walk off in tears but not this boy. He wanted to give her a happy ending.

"So you really were the one who stopped the Graviton bomb at the Mall today"

"Huh I guess you could say that all I did was absorb the explosion, Zapper was the one who actually caught the bomber."

"Huh, Humble I see. Well on behalf of Judgement thank you. And on behalf of me…. Thank you."

"Oh you don't have to thank me I didn't do anything that special"

'Ugh! Just take the thank you' Shirai thought.

"Well if that's everything then I bid you farewell…. I have a special dinner with my Onee-sama and I don't wanna be late hehehehe" Shirai then vanished into thin air.

"Huh, weird kid" Touma muttered to himself when he finally noticed the time and realized that he was late in meeting up with Misaki.

"Such Misfortune"

Touma's Dorm

When Touma finally arrived at his Dorm he noticed that Misaki was nowhere in sight which wasn't that surprising since she also had the same curfew that he had just used to get out of a fight earlier.

"Oh man. This day had literally been nothing but misfortune for this Poor Kamijou hasn't it".

When Touma walked inside he noticed a box on the counter of his kitchen it was a present and there was a note attached to it.

When Touma opened the letter it read.

'Sorry I missed you, my Prince. Here I saw this when I was walking around and thought of you I hope you enjoy Signed Your, Golden Girl ".

Touma then put down the letter and proceed to open the box. When he finally managed to open it he was surprised to see that it was a case of his favorite black coffee.

"Huh I guess this day wasn't too bad after all"

Author's Note

For those of you who didn't get my science joke. osmium- densest metallic substance on earth

The way Touma's left hand operates is through the system of absorption and reflection. It will first absorb the supernatural phenomenon and then to the best of its ability to reflect it back. It works better on Esper abilities than Magic ones. Also, it is not instant it is exponential. With imagine Breaker if something is constantly poured in then it will just keep constantly negating it at the same speed. However Counter would just keep absorbing it at a faster rate.

Also, Touma can hold in his Counter Attacks by clenching his left fist before it fires back and erases it all together by using imagine breaker on it.

Also if you ever wondered what counter sounded like it sounds like the new sound effect that they are using for Imagine breaker for a certain magical index 3 right now.

Imagine breaker just sounds like the sound effect they used in season 2

Also, the Next Chapter will Be SS (Side Story) on Misaki's Day. It'll be what happened to her on July 18. Tune in Next time for Misaki's Misfortunate day.
