zachycards: Hello reader, and welcome to the next chapter and installment of A Pair Of Certain Scientific Railgun Aces. Here is the disclaimer, I do not own A Certain Scientific Railgun, or any of the other anime associated with it, in any sort of possible and conceivable way, in any sort of possible and conceivable shape, or in any sort of possible and conceivable form. I do not own anything in this story, in any sort of possible and conceivable way, in any sort of possible and conceivable shape, or in any sort of possible and conceivable form, except my oc self insert. I am not making money off of this, in any sort of possible and conceivable way, in any sort of possible and conceivable shape, or in any sort of possible and conceivable form. I also do not own the rights to A Certain Scientific Railgun, in any sort of possible and conceivable way, in any sort of possible and conceivable shape, or in any sort of possible and conceivable form. Or any of the other anime associated with it, in any sort of possible and conceivable way, in any sort of possible and conceivable shape, or in any sort of possible and conceivable form. A Certain Scientific Railgun does belong to, and it will always belong to Kazuma Kamachi and Motoi Fuyukawa, in every sort of possible and conceivable way, in every sort of possible and conceivable shape, and in every sort of possible and conceivable form. So, now that the disclaimer is out of the way, let us now move on to the 18th chapter. But before I do, let me just go and reiterate once again to all the readers who are reading this fanfic. That I am typing out all of the chapter in all of my in progress fanfics. That are a tad bit below, or are very much below at least one thousand overall words in the chapter. The reason I am doing this is because I was very unhappy with how those chapters looked, because I felt that I did not put in enough effort with regards to writing each of them. I am also going to do my absolute and complete diligence to try and write every single episode of these anime into an actual chapter of at least one thousand words in length. The only chapters that I am going to try and skip, are chapters that I do not feel are at all or very practical for me to try and, or even attempt to write in the first place. And one more thing, please, I know you may or may not have a busy schedule outside of reading fanics, but at least take some time out of your life to at least leave a review on any one of my fanfics. I will happily take your criticism. I don't bite, at least, last I checked, I am very much sure that I don't. And any sort of correction you would like me to make, and I will do my absolute best to make it happen, within some sort of reason of course. But anyways, now that I am done rambling on, I think it is now time to move on to the 18th chapter. I hope you can all appreciate the time I have put into this.

Chapter 18: A Second Round With Capacity Down (Part 2)

Location: Inside Of A Laboratory And Insiade Of An Undeground Lab Somewhere In Academy City

Time: Unknown:

We had recently learned that Kiyama was after the MAR trailers, unaware that they were decoys filled with the MAR Troops, but she was saved by Misaka and I. Kuroko, Kongo, Yomikawa, Tsuzuri and the Anti-Skills held off the rest of the MAR Troops. Kiyama, Uiharu and Saten headed towards Kihara's laboratory, whilst Misaka and I defended them from Therestina, who attacked with a giant large mech. Although Therestina's mech was unaffected by Misaka and I's basic attacks, Kuroko wound up helping both of us destroy the mech, by using its own arm as an improvised railgun. But not before a little bit of an exchange of words was done between me and Misaka. "Well sis, are you ready to end this?" I said with a small smile very much present on my face. "Sis, you don't need to ask me, just focus on the task at hand" Misaka said in a slightly concerned sounding tone, although with a smile evident on her face as well. "Right, my mistake sis" I responded back, as Misaka and I then fired at the mech, destroying it.

However, a little later on, as Misaka, me, Kuroko, Uiharu, Saten, and Kiyama finally arrived at the underground lab where Erii and the children are being held. However, Therestina, who had survived, suddenly activated the lab's Capacity Down and attacked them, revealing her plan to use the First Sample from herself and the children to force Erii to become a Level 6 esper, and destroy the city in the process. "Wow are you serious right now? Why can't you just be a good villain, and just die already!?" I said in a very agitated tone, as I held my head, while pain coursed through it from the waves of Capacity Down.

It really did like all was lost. However, unbeknownst to all of us, Saten, who was the only one that wasn't affected by Capacity Down, since she was a level 0, and didn't possess any esper ablities. Went to Capacity Down's control room, and wound up destroying its controls. And once Misaka and I had gotten our bearings, we then readied ourselves to finally defeat Therestina with our railguns. And as both Misaka and I pulled out our respective arcade tokens from our respective skirt pockets and placed them between our respective two fingers. I decided that now was as good a time as any, to say some parting words for Therastina.

"So, any last words, how about, I'm sorry for what I did, hmm?" I said with a determined tone very evident on my face, as I started charging electricity into my arm and hand that held my arcade coin, to which Misaka was doing the same. Unfortunately for her, Therastina remained silent. "Well, its your loss" I said. To which I then, without turning to Misaka asked "So sis, you ready to end this properly?" I asked as I prepared to flip my arcade coin. "Sis, how many times are you going to ask that?!" Misaka responded back, now clearly not very happy with me asking her these unnecessary questions. "Right sis, again, my mistake" I said as a bead of sweat found its way down one side of my face. And with those final exchange of words between us, we flipped our respective coins, and as soon as they came back down and hit our thumbs, we fired, producing our respective railguns, and wiping Therastina out of existence.

And, with the First Sample now in her possession, Kiyama wound up creating the cure and wound up finally awakened Banri and the other children that had gone into comas, to which she gave her thanks to Misaka and I. And in the aftermath, the recovering children gave a birthday message to Kiyama via a blimp as Misaka, myself, and everyone else watched.
