Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: Graviton Bombs, Railguns, And What It Truly Means To Have Complete Trust In Your Sibling(s)

Date: July 18, 2009

It was just a normal day for the two of us.

Well, as normal as one can get when you are trying not to get yourself injured, or worst case killed.

This was compounded by the fact that after Misaka and I had run into Touma at the mall, after a series of events had lead to us winding up there with Uiharu.

However, it was when a girl, who had accompanied Touma to the mall, came to Uiharu. Who was holding a stuffed animal that someone had told her to give to Uiharu, that the stuffed animal started to implode in on itself.

Uiharu tried to quickly try her best to toss it as far away as possible.

Misaka, seeing all of this play out, fumbled for her coin, in a desperate attempt to fire her Railgun and get the imploding graviton bomb as far out of the mall as possible.

It was then that I realized, that unless I did something, and did it quickly, that this would end very very badly.

So, after taking a deep breath, I gently reached into my skirt pocket, pulling out one of the many coins that lay there.

I then held the coin between two of my fingers, concentrating as I did so, as electricity started to course through my body and up my arm that held the coin, and into my hand.

However, without flipping the coin this time, I just fired towards the imploding stuffed animal, sending it out one of the windows of the mall.

Unfortunately, it didn't send it out far enough, and when it imploded, the shockwaves that it sent out, caused enough damage to blow out all of the windows on several of the floors of the mall and damage quite a bit of the buildings outer facing.

And some of the shockwaves also sent some of the blast back through the broken windows on the floor that the imploding stuffed animal had been sent out from, causing me to brace myself slightly, as a bit of dust and debris was blasted back through the broken windows, and back towards me, Misaka, Uiharu, and Touma.

It was once the dust had settled, that I was once again able to see clearly.

"Oops, that did a lot more damage then I expected it too," I thought to myself, as a bead of sweat found its way down one side of my face.

However, as I turned around to face Misaka, to see if she and Uiharu were alright, and to make sure that they didn't get hurt by the blast from the graviton bomb, that I once again saw Touma holding out his right hand.

This sent a shocked expression across both me and Misaka's face. "I've said it before Touma, and I'm going to say it again, you are just full of surprises, aren't you?" I thought to myself.

However, it was as the graviton bomb had gone off and caused the damage to the outside of the mall building, that a boy wearing glasses, with a white collared dress shirt, and wearing headphones, smirked, and then turned and walked away, and out of sight, and down an alley.

A little later, in a nearby alley. Misaka had punched the kid responsible for the bombing in the face, after he had explained why he had been doing the graviton bombings, and why it was just an excuse for him to hurt people.

And, not surprisingly, this had angered me as well, which caused me to punch him as hard as Misaka had done. Because no one puts my sister in harms way, and doesn't expect to pay for it.
