Chapter 01: End of those Days of Tranquility, Hello life of Misery

Three days before.

To know how it is that this story twisted so much that not even he himself knows how it began, it is necessary to go back three days ago.

Winter.

The students wore winter uniforms.

The cold was overwhelming at this time of morning.

Now, let's focus on a particular guy.

An unfortunate person.

Surely you have heard it many times, but it is necessary to said it. For someone like Kamijou Touma bad luck was something that cannot be taken lightly. A simple walk to the school can turn into an odyssey. Thus, a simple decision could become something stormy for him. The least change in the decisions that he chose could lead to alter the defined routes. For example, a girl with red hair. Very early in the morning, he had managed to get up early. It felt like a cold day, but he showed a smile on his face. He had succeeded in completing the immeasurable amount of homework. He had managed to buy food at a discount store.

For the first time, Kamijou Touma was having some 'good luck' he couldn't be more optimistic.

With no mishap on the day before, he was in good spirits now.

But life is a bitch who likes to play with the fate of people.

Thus, the option he took would lead him to the same hell.

Kamijou Touma wouldn't know until after having met that girl, it would lead him to a war between the two strongest factions in the world.

"Hey bitch, I told you to cooperate with me."

"Let me touch those boobs."

"I didn't know there were good bitches around here."

Kamijou stopped his steps and saw three men surrounding a girl.

The people who passed around only avoided the ugly scene. None of them wanted to have problems, most were cowards.

That's what she thought.

Naruse Mio had met innumerable men who had only noticed her body.

They are all just perverts.

This world is so rotten.

"Hey, are not you listening to me?"

One of them grabbed her arm.

Naruse Mio put a cold expression on her face.

I just have to burn them to death.

She was very different from the others.

Since she was not a human.

Magic was something that only a few could manipulate.

Magic was something unknown to humans.

These guys are just a bother.

It's time to teach these perverts a lesson.

Just when she had begun to gather energy in the palm of her hands, a person took her arm.

Unlike the other guys, his grip was kind.

His appearance was the same as that of those boys.

He also looked like a criminal, only much more dangerous.

Then the other boys stepped back to look at the boy with black hair.

Mio felt fear in their eyes.

Are they scared of him?

"What the hell is he doing here?"

"Hey, we'd better go."

The third boy, who was the tallest of them, showed a disgruntled smile.

"Why do we have to run away from him?"

"Have not you heard the rumors?"

"Yeah, let's get out of here, boss."

"I don't think so, this guy is just a jerk, why do we have to flee?"

He pulled a knife from his pocket.

"Well, let's see if the rumors are true."

Mio shuddered, while he stood in front of her with a serious expression on his face.

"With what, playing the hero?"

The man held the knife in his hands as he moved with surprising speed.

Obviously facing an armed boy would be more than crazy.

And yet, he remained calm.

"Oi, I'll say only once." He raised a hand in peace. "You don't want to do that."

"Haha, too late."

The man shook the knife as he nailed it to his chest.

Mio closed her eyes.

She was afraid of blood.

She had experienced firsthand what it meant death.

Because of her fault many people had died.

All her classmates had been killed by someone seeking her power.

I don't want to see anyone die again.

But.

This time was different.

She could hear only a loud sound in the air.

The sound of the fist on the boy's face.

The knife flew out onto the sidewalk.

The other two could only tremble with fear at what had happened.

It had only been five seconds.

At that time it is as if everything had frozen.

Kamijou Touma just made a move.

With that, he had disarmed the man at the same time that his fist fell on his face. The blood flows quickly from his nose and his mouth.

That hadn't been a simple blow. The man murmured.

"S-so it's true, after all you're that monster."

Kamijou smiled slightly as he put a hand on his neck.

"I don't know what you're talking about, I'm just a normal high school boy."

Mio looked at that forced smile on his face.

Those guys were pale with fear.

Who the hell is he?

The most important thing...

Why did my power leave just as he took my hand?

That was what most worried her.

"Well, do you still want to fight?"

Kamijou looked at the other boys.

"N-no."

" I'm sorry!"

They both took the other who was stunned on the ground and fled away.

"Sigh ... that was dangerous."

He let out a sigh.

"Oh? Are you okay? They didn't do you anything strange, right?"

Mio shook her head, still dazed.

After that ugly moment, both of them rest on a bench in the park.

Kamijou brought two drinks.

"Here, you must be thirsty."

"Thank you."

"With this cold, there is nothing better than a hot drink."

He smiled as he drank a little.

"By the way, I am Kamijou Touma."

"My name is Naruse Mio."

She was a bit shy, still felt that he was dangerous.

She looked at him out of the corner of her eye trying to decipher that smile on his face.

He seems kind, but at the same time I feel he hides something.

"Oi, are you okay, really?"

"Y-yes."

She also drank her drink while the winter cold felt in the air.

Students, workers and all kinds of people walked here and there.

All of them foreign to what existed in the world, something called magic.

Something supernatural they could not even imagine.

"I'm sorry for getting you into my problems."

She started.

"No problem, it's really what anyone would do."

"It's not like that, people often avoid problems."

"Haha, you're right, there are all kinds of people in this world."

It was natural for him to help others, so he didn't know how to respond.

"But that doesn't mean you have the opportunity to make a move with me, is that clear?"

"What are you saying all of a sudden?"

"All the boys are perverts, even if you helped me that don't mean that you have any chance with me."

Oi, Oi, what happens to this girl.

"I'm a gentleman. I wouldn't do something like that."

"But still you're a guy, isn't it?"

"Well, that's true."

"Then you could stop looking at my breasts!"

She covered her breast as she spoke with rage.

Her cheeks were flushed.

Kamijou had to admit, he had been staring at her breasts.

She had a good body and he couldn't help glancing at her.

"That's true, but it's not like I'm like those guys."

"That's what everyone says and in the end they just want to satisfy their desires."

"For example?"

"W-why do you want me to say those things? Y-you stalker, pervert!"

And with her face totally blushing she left.

"Ehh ... I just wanted to play with her a little."

Kamijou looked away.

A very different morning than he had thought, but at least he had the opportunity to see a pretty girl.

"I'll bet if I tell Tsuchimikado about her."

Kamijou stopped his thoughts.

No, after all, it was not a good idea.

"Those idiots would make a big fuss."

Rising from the bench he also made his way.

"Oh, I forgot to ask her for her number or something!"

He put his hands to his head while he whined.

There were even rumors about some people with supernatural abilities.

One of those oddities was that girl.

Kamijou immediately identified her among all that crowd coming and going.

I shouldn't have taken the subway.

He unsuccessfully tried to board the subway.

She had held him by the arm.

"I finally found you!"

She exclaimed as she clenched her grip.

"Why do you always have to be a nuisance?"

"You're the trouble!"

"No, I've never really set a finger on you, Biribiri."

"Stop calling me that, my name is Misaka Mikoto, you idiot."

"Hai, hai, whatever."

"You always escape, but today will be different!"

"I don't know what you have in mind, but I'm not in the mood for another fight."

"Another fight?"

"Yes, I'm already tired and it's not noon."

"I will not let you go so fast, fight with me."

"Fight, fight, is what you always say."

"Just shut up and do what I say!"

Misaka ordered.

Knowing how stubborn she was, he had no choice but to think of something quick.

"Well, I surrender you're the winner, hurray for you."

He started to walk away, but immediately he felt an overwhelming aura coming from her.

Oi, Oi not here!

It would be good if it was an ordinary girl, but it is not.

Misaka Mikoto, a refined student at the prestigious Tokiwadai School, was actually an Esper.

She was one of those few people with unique abilities in this city.

Kamijou instinctively moved his body by avoiding the electric attack of her.

That's right, she can manipulate electricity.

"Idiot, that was super dangerous!"

"You're the idiot, besides, why did you dodge my attack when you can-"

He quickly moved toward her covering her mouth with his right hand.

"Shhh, do not say that out loud."

Although he was a person who helped others, Kamijou preferred to keep a low profile. For now, this was not working due to Misaka's fault. The subway as well as all the electrical devices suffered breakdowns

People immediately began to murmur.

"Well, I'll do whatever you say just keep quiet."

Misaka did not answer.

"Hey, are you listening to me?"

He probably hadn't realized that his hand was covering her mouth and his other hand was pressing her breasts.

"Err, Misaka-san, you know ... this was not intentional."

"You, you, you, you!"

She frowned angrily as sparks of electricity gushed from her temple.

"Wait, wait a minute!"

Kamijou was shaking with fear.

The same guy who until recently had bullied a group of criminals was having problems to deal with this girl.

"I'll definitely not forgive you!"

"Y-yeah, I know, it was my fault but don't make a mess here."

"Then you have no problem if we fight in a place where there are no people, right?"

"I guess so."

"Well then, follow me!"

Too regretfully he followed her.

Today, after all, it was not a good day.

Author's Notes

Here another chapter and first of all sorry by grammatical errors, I'm not very good at that.

To the guest, thanks for correcting my mistakes, it was really helpful. About couples, I still think it would be good for this story. Basara likes me as a character, but I want him to being in the villain side. Their power is very similar to that of Kamijou, so I think a confrontation between them would be incredible.

If you give me advice of who will be with whom, I will take it into account.

So far the characters who'll handle this arc will be:

Naruse Mio

Naruse Maria

Nonaka Yuki

Misaka Mikoto

Shokuhou Misaki

Kinuhata Saiai

Kumokawa Seria

And if you have another character in mind, please write it in the review.

Any advice in well received.
