Chapter 3

Ruiko's trip with Uiharu was pretty uneventful and soon enough their scary dorm supervisor cut short their visit by punishing Misaka and Kuroko for their antics.

"This was great,right Saten-san!"Uiharu said while being starry eyed and Saten rolled her eyes over her excitement.

"You'll keep dragging me into these situations,wouldn't you?"she replied causing Uiharu to pout.

"Oh,you should lighten up Saten-san.

There is so much about this city that we don't know.

We're lucky enough to be even allowed to be in this city with amazing technology."

Unknown to her Ruiko felt discomfort where her scars were,something she hid and very few people were privy about.

"In case you haven't noticed Uiharu ,the higher their power the more unhinged they get.

I can't be the only one to realize that."

Uiharu was offended by her accusations.

"How can you say that about your friends!Misaka-san and Shirai-san had been nothing but nice to us.

Misaka-san even asked me whether you dislike her for some reason."

Ruiko sighed in exasperation

"I never said I dislike them.

All I'm saying one should be careful as power released by throwing a tantrum can easily hurt someone.

You work for Judgement,right?Do espers not throw their powers around just to show they are better than everyone."

Uiharu looked on silently,not denying it but clearly had more to say.

Ruiko had no more reason to continue this argument.

"Look,do whatever you like but don't force me to think like you do."

That was the end of conversation and the two girls went their own way.

'I'm really bad at talking to people'Saten sighed at the way she framed her views to Uiharu who probably wouldn't want to hang out with her now.

But this was for the best,probably.


She went out for dinner at a restaurant alone where food was cheap and passable.

This was interrupted when she received a message in her phone.

She read it and raised her eyebrow.

"Level Upper?"
