Pan up from the sewers to reveal a western wasteland filled with saloons. The crew pops up and Audrey closes the sewer behind her.

Misaka: Lets keep moving forward from here. After that we'll be on track to-

Someone zooms past Misaka stealing her radar.

Misaka: Hey!

Audrey & Brock: Don't worry, I got this!

They both start sprinting towards the thief.

Audrey: Back off pipsqueak, you don't know what you're doing.

Brock: Right, a 3 time track, football, soccer, and 4 time basketball champion doesn't know what he's doing.

Audrey: Do your thing on earth, I gotta impre- I don't want more trouble for you.

Brock: You don't seriously care about impressing Misaka, right?

Brock chuckles saying it but Audrey's faces clenches as she gets flustered.

Brock: Oh wait...seriously?

Audrey: Dude, stop running my pace. Please?

Brock: I...fine.

Brock slows his pace expecting Audrey to catch the thief. The thief turns back, eyes widened.

They hop on the side of a building and climb on balconies to escape. Audrey nearly catches them but their just too fast and her hand slips. She falls and fails.

The squad groans in embarrassment besides Misaka. She looks away, eyebrows furrowed. Shes the first to go to Audrey.

Misaka: Strawberry, it's okay-

When Misaka puts her hand on Audrey's shoulder, Audrey moves up faster, forcing the hand off.

Audrey: No, it's not okay! You were perfecting that thing for months and now its gone. We don't even have the parts to rebuild! I cannot believe I let this happen!

Audrey storms off not listening to Misaka's next words.

Misaka: Wait! Ugh.

Brock: This would've all gone fine if I wouldn't have slowed down.

Brock mutters under his breath but loud enough for Misaka to hear. She forces his head to her.

Misaka: You got something to say to us then say it to our faces!

Brock: Okay, sure!

Neil and Apollo immediately turn to face Brock then each other with a horrified expression.

Neil & Apollo: Brock, no!

They run to stop him but they're too late.

Brock: If I wouldn't have slowed down to let your lovey-dovey girlfriend quote on quote, impress you, the thief wouldn't have gotten away!
