Okay, so a couple of days had now passed since me and Misaka had had our run-in with Mugino and the rest of ITEM at one of the two remaining facilities.
"Unfortunately viewers, sorry Keiko here. *blushes* Anyway, as I was about to address to all of you. And, as I had specified quite obviously in the previous chapter, this wasn't going to be the last time that we crossed paths with Mugino, or even the rest of ITEM for that matter. Anyway, after we had finally made it back to our dorms at Tokiwadai. Well, when I say that viewers, I mean, that we both got a really good talking too by the head dorm resident supervisor. You know, the same female in question, who wound up breaking Kuroko's neck back in chapter two? Yes, that head dorm resident supervisor. Anyway, we somehow managed to get away with having sneaked out past our curfew for all of those nights. And the reason as to why? Well, Kuroko and Misaka, somehow managed to convince the dorm resident supervisor, that it had to do with some Judgment related business, or something along those lines. And the reason why I am not going into deeper detail about that viewers, is because that is considered confidential information. Sure, me and Misaka, do occasionally visit the 177th Judgment branch. But, however, that still doesn't mean that the information in question, isn't less confidential. And, by the way, the next morning, after this had transpired, Misaka finally wound up filling me in, on what had been transpiring regarding the whole Level 6 Shift situation. Apparently, as it turned out, what I had learned from Misaka, through me using my Telepath ability, was pretty much most, of what Misaka wound up telling to me. The only things that were new, that I had wound up learning, apparently had to do, with Accelerator. And when I mean that viewers, for those who haven't watched the episodes in question. Apparently, Academy City, was working on running the experiments, with the 20,000 Misaka clones, in an effort, to allow Accelerator, to achieve Level 6. Now I know what you're thinking here viewers, aren't there only 5 Esper levels in total? Well, those 5 Esper levels, are attainable through, like me and Misaka did over the course of several months, to years in the past, are the easily attainable levels. While level 6? Well, that is only attainable through...well...let me just refer to these, as less humane options. As in, the whole reason that the 20,000 Misaka clones were created, were to use them in the Level 6 Shift experiments. I know, crazy right? Anyway, I think that that is more then enough of my fourth wall breaks, at least for now. So, what do you say that we finally get on with the chapter huh? *says the last part followed by a close eyed smile*"
Anyway, fourth wall break aside. At the current moment, me and Misaka, were currently walking through one of the many parks in Academy City. And no, this was not the same park where we fought alongside the rest of the Four Aces either. It was actually the same park, where we had gone to, when I had first arrived in this world, and had wound up in control of Keiko's body. Yes, that park, you know, the one with the vending machine that Misaka had kicked? Yes, that vending machine. In fact, as both me and Misaka, walked through the park, near the vending machine in question. And while I was talking to Misaka, about something regarding the current experiments, I couldn't help but notice, that she now had an all too familiar blush on her face. And when I looked towards the direction of where she was looking, I then noticed, an all too familiar person, with short spiky black hair.
"Oh, well it looks like Touma is here as well...Uh...Well, that is not ideal now is it?...And yet, I might as well standby, in case things suddenly decide to go sideways, like they had done back just before Misaka fought him down by the riverbank," I thought to myself, as I ran a hand, through my long light blue hair, and sighed.
And to make matters just that much worse, Touma at the current moment, seemed to be having some trouble with the vending machine. And, as I was about to soon learn, this was actually not an isolated occurrence with this particular vending machine either. But more on that at a later date.
Anyway, as me and Misaka, approached closer to the vending machine, and Touma then took notice of the both of us, he then proceeded to tell Misaka, after she had asked what exactly was going on, that apparently, the vending machine had eaten some of Touma's money. How much you may ask, well, 2000 yen, according to what he had said in response to Misaka's question. And not surprisingly this prompted Misaka, to let out a laugh in response.
So yea, not what I would consider the most lucky of situations in Touma's case. Mr. Rotten Luck, once again living up to his name, so to speak.
Anyway, after Misaka, had helped Touma out, by doing a spinning kick, and then kicking the vending machine, just like she had done back in chapter 1. And several drinks were then spat out of it. Touma, for reasons known only to him, decided to run away.
And, once we had all wound up together again, at a nearby bench. And with me helping Misaka to carry half of the drinks, that had been spit out of the vending machine. I then noticed something interesting regarding the drinks that I was holding.
"Okay, so apparently some of these drinks aren't cold to the touch...that's strange...So, I guess that would mean that some of these are hot drinks?...How have they managed that?...And what I mean by that viewers, is that Japan really has outdone themselves with this...Oh, and by the way viewers, I am only referring to those of you, who haven't done inappropriately related things, in the country of Japan. Johnny Somali, this especially means you. Logan Paul, this means you as well...You both should be ashamed of yourselves!" I thought to myself, as I turned my eyesight, as well as my attention, to the left of me, to briefly address the viewers. Only to have my expression, turn to one of immense anger, as I started talking about the dumb decisions, that had been made, by both Logan Paul, and Johnny Somali.
But anyway, fourth wall break aside. While the three of us were sitting down on the bench. I then heard, an all too familiar popping type sound. Which indicated that someone had just teleported. And sure enough, when I looked up, I noticed an all too familiar someone, who was now standing in front of the three of us. And a look of severe unhappiness, then found its way onto my face.
"Really Kuroko? Why are you..." I began to ask in a not so happy tone, only to be interrupted mid-sentence, by Kuroko, going over to Misaka, and then proceeding to perversely ask her, why she was with Touma. Well, she didn't refer to Touma as that exactly. Actually, as a matter of fact, she referred to him, as Misaka's boyfriend.
And Misaka's response to this, was well..."Kuroko...!!!!" Misaka slowly said, in an all too familiar ticked off tone, which was exactly how Misaka had acted in the past, just before she had dispersed her electricity when we had crossed paths with Touma, back in chapter 5.
And sure enough, Misaka at that very moment, then wound up discharging a huge amount her electricity towards Kuroko. Only to have Kuroko quickly teleport to avoid it, and then end up on top of a nearby lamppost. And judging by the current situation, I figured, that now was as good a time as any, to speak up, in an effort to try and diffuse, the currently quite dangerous situation.
"Okay Kuroko...now is not the time..." However, before I could even finish, she had teleported away again. And, the situation, had now turned, to being completely awkward.
