Chapter 03


"A few hours ago, Misaka unintentionally overheard a radio call of Anti-Skill as she was passing by the side of a parked patrol car while walking around the shopping district. Says Misaka as she begins her report in purposefully vague way, being careful to hide the fact that she was looking for the boy in the places where he is more likely to be seen."

Touma tries his best to keep focused while he listens to Misaka's report. However, no matter what he does, he can't take his eyes off of Mikoto who's right now happily sucking on a Gekota lollipop while listening to her sister.

"Man, what did I do to deserve this luck?" He sighs inwardly while trying to figure the cause for this incident and how to solve it.

"But at least Zapper is kinda cute when she's like this."

"Ahem! Says Misaka as she clears her throat loudly to call for the boy's attention."

"Eh! I'm sorry… what was it again?" Touma apologizes to Misaka for his lack of attention while scratching the back of his head.

"Misaka was reporting the events of yesterday to the boy; however, the boy seems more interested in watching her big sister eating a candy than on Misaka's report. Says Misaka letting a bit of her fury slip unconsciously into her voice."

"Or perhaps, is this the kind of thing that turns you on? Asks Misaka as she mercilessly teases the boy after remembering the fact that he's always seen in the company of girls of inappropriate age and or looks."

"What!? No, I'm nothing like this!" Touma said, waving his arms in front of himself defensively.

"Hehehe, if say so… Says Misaka in a suggestive tone after having satisfied her thirst for revenge and getting ready to resume her report."

"Oh boy…" Touma sighs under his breath, "I'm betting this will be a hell of a long day."

"The caller said, 'Attention all units, this is HQ requesting immediate backup to quell large scale riots happening all throughout the city. All available units please assemble at the nearest station. Repeating…' Says Misaka as she tries to imitate the officer's voice unsuccessfully."

"Following this, Misaka was sent on her way home by to Anti-Skill officers with a warning to not get near the park where she first met the boy, because there was some powerful electricity using esper rampaging through that area. Says Misaka as she reminisces about the past while in the middle of her report."

"Misaka then consulted the Network to see if there was any other Misaka who have been reported to go out of control. However, given the negative reports of all of the other Misakas, Misaka could only think of one other possibility. Says Misaka as she explains how she got to the conclusion that the esper in question was none other than her big sister."

"Taking the matter into her own hands, Misaka armed herself and went to the park to try and capture her big sister before the Anti-Skill could get their hands on her. Explains Misaka while narrating her bold decision; however, Misaka is careful to make a point that she was using tranquilizer shots instead of live ammo."

"Well, let me see if I got this correct up to now," Touma said after signaling for Misaka to wait a minute.

"That's mostly correct. Says Misaka as she positively evaluates the boy's retelling of her report."

"However, after securing her big sister, Misaka was at a loss as of what to do, then following her instincts Misaka brought her big sister to the hospital knowing that even if Dr. Gekota wasn't able to help her sooner or later the boy would show himself. Says Misaka as she concludes her report with hint of hope in her voice."

"Well, I guess that I have no choice then," Said Touma as he walked in the direction of Mikoto's bed.

"I just hope you don't mind me doing this, but it's for your best, Zapper." Said Touma as he touched Mikoto in the forehead with his right hand, certain that the Imagine Breaker would do the trick this time again.


A/N: Once again I thank you all and apologize for the small chapters, but that's actually all that I'm able to write in a roll these days because of a wrist injury and Ilike to post things just as I write them.
