At Joseph's:
Saten tells a scary story as there was a black blanket around the others.
Saten: This is something that our
upperclassmen's boyfriend actually had happen to him. It took place one sultry summer evening, as this boyfriend of hers was passing through a park with no sign of anyone else around. A woman, standing by herself, asked him for directions to the train station. And as the boyfriend was graciously giving her directions, this vacant looking woman slowly lifted her hands... and then suddenly, with a whoosh...!
Misaka: With a whoosh...?
Saten: She took off her blouse.
Sonic: Huh?
Misaka stands up as the blanket went on Uiharu and Saten.
Misaka: Geez, that wasn't the least bit scary at all!
Sonic: Agreed.
Kuroko: Even with the mood we tried to create, with a story like that one...
Saten: Huh? It's not scary, even when it actually happened? The urban legend of The Undress-tress Who disrobes without warning?
Misaka: It's not scary. It's more like, she's a sicko, isn't she?
Uiharu: Okay, then, how about this story?
Uiharu takes out her laptop looking at urban legends in Academy City and shows it to the others.
Uiharu: "When the wind turbines propellers spin backwards, some anomaly will strike the city."
Saten: "Don't go crossing school district at 4:44 in the evening! You'll wander into the phantom Imaginary Number School District!" "An implement which increases your abilities just by using it."
Kuroko: The Level-Upper? Stop looking at they ridiculous site, will you?
Sonic: I don't know. It seems interesting.
Saten: I know right?
Misaka: Urban legends are such unscientific tales. This is the world famous Academy City.
Saten: Geez, you've got no sense of adventure.
Uiharu: Moreover, sometimes incidents that have actually occurred get twisted around, and end up becoming these rumors.
Saten: "The boy with the power to prevent other powers from working," is a story you'd see in Academy City, isn't it?
Misaka: (The power to prevent other powers from working?)
Sonic: (Preventing other powers from awakening? That sounds like the guy we saw before, but...)
Kuroko: There's no way that someone could have a crazy power like that one. Right, sissy?
Misaka didn't say anything and stared at the laptop same with Sonic.
Uiharu: Misaka, Sonic?
Sonic: Huh? Oh, sorry...
Misaka: Huh?... Yeah, right. If there was someone like that, I'd sure like to fight him sometime. Ha ha ha ha. You know, if there really was someone.
In Green Mart:
Sonic and Misaka were checking out the magazines of urban legends.
Misaka: Urban legends, huh?
Sonic: Sounds to me that these urban legends may be true.
Misaka: The boy with the power to prevent other powers from working?
Sonic: Misaka, is something wrong?
Misaka: I'm just remembering when I first saw him.
Sonic: Oh, you mean him right?
Misaka: Yeah. It kinda happened like this.
Flashback:
A flashback happens with Misaka being cornered from a bunch of men.
Man: You're a cutie. Whoo! And from Tokiwadai, at that.
Man2: Wanna come with us and have a little fun?
Man3: We'll take you home. No telling when that will be, though.
They all started laughing until a random guy comes in:
Touma: Oh, there you are! Hey, thanks for keeping her company. You know you shouldn't wander off like that. Okay, thanks.
Misaka: Who are you?
Touma: Heh... Hey, you! Play along, here! You've ruined my "pretend to be a friend and naturally walk you away" plan, you know!
Misaka: Why should I have to go through the bother of anything like that?!
Man: Who are you, pal?
Man2: You think you can play us for saps?
Touma: I, uh... What's the use? Yeah, that's right! Don't you guys have any shame? All of you guys, fencing in a single girl like this... it's pathetic. Take a good look at the girl you guys are hitting up. She's still just a kid, isn't she? You saw our exchange just now, right? The rude attitude she displays, failing to respect her elders! She may look like a sweet girl, but she's still going through her rebellious age. That's the kind of kid she is! It's guys like you, who can't even take on a little kid unless you gang up on her, that sickens me!
Misaka: What sickens me the most of all... is you!!
Misaka shocks all of the men's until one person was still standing.
His right hand stood out protecting him.
Outside of GREEN MART:
Sonic: So that's what happened.
Misaka: Yeah. He's such a moron.
Sonic: At least he tried to help unlike the other ones.
Misaka: Why don't my shocks work on him? Could it be just like the urban legends say...? No, impossible! If I zapped like I really mean it, he'd be... Next time I see him, I'll be sure to...
Sonic: Oh, there he is.
Misaka: Huh?
Touma: Let's see... Do you remember any landmarks, or anything?
Woman: Landmarks? There was a crosswalk right in front of it.
Touma: A crosswalk isn't much of a landmark.
Misaka: You!
Sonic: Hey.
Touma: Oh, it's zapper, the middle schooler.
Misaka: I'm not zapper!
Touma: And theres the blue hedgehog. Uh... I don't think we ask each other's name.
Sonic: Oh, yeah. I'm Sonic, Sonic The Hedgehog.
Touma: I'm Kamijo Touma, but you can call me Touma.
Sonic: Great.
Misaka: Are you even listening?! I'm Misaka Mikoto! And today is the day that I settle the score!
Touma: So that means you're not doing anything right now, right?
Misaka: If it's time you want, Ive got plenty!
Sonic: Um, Misaka, I don't think he means it like that.
Touma: Then, could you help this woman find where she parked?
Misaka: Huh?
Sonic: Told you.
Woman: Yeah... I can't remember where the parking lot is where I parked my car.
Misaka: Eh? Hold on... Why me?
Touma: I've got someplace that I have to be. You've got the time, so it's all good, right?
Misaka: No, it's not all good! You think you can weasel out of this again, but I won't let you! You always sweet talk your way out whatever you have to, but today...
Woman: Wow, you know, it sure is hot.
The woman takes off her shirt showing her bra.
Sonic: Umm...
Touma: Ehh?
Misaka: W-What are you doing...?
Woman: I've been walking around quite a bit under the hot sun. I'm dripping with sweat.
Misaka and Sonic goes to where Touma is.
Misaka: What is with this woman?!
Touma: I just ran into her a moment ago, myself!
Sonic: Whatever she's doing, it seems to me that she doesn't care.
Touma: P-Please, put your shirt back on!
Two random girls saw a guy with the girl's shirt.
Girl: That woman is being assaulted!
Girl2: Huh?! Did that boy take that off of her?!
A couple more people showed up.
Touma: N-No I didn't.
He gives the shirt to Misaka and runs off.
Misaka: Huh?
Touma: You've got it all wrong!
Sonic: And off he goes.
Misaka: Hold on!
Woman: Excuse me... I can't have you running off with my shirt.
Misaka: W-Whatever, just please put it on! People are looking! People are looking at us! Come on, hurry!
At Seventh Mist:
The woman was getting something to drink at the vending machine while Sonic and Misaka are at a table.
Woman: It's cool here. I feel rejuvenated.
Misaka: What is a deal with that woman?
Sonic: Hold on, you don't think she's the one of the urban legends do you?
Misaka: There's no way!
Misaka's phone started ringing.
Misaka: Hello?
Kuroko: Sissy? Where are you right now? I was about to go have tea with Uiharu and Saten. Would you care to come along?
Misaka: Well, the thing is, me and Sonic are with this weird lady.
Kuroko: Weird, you say?
Sonic: Yeah. Apparently she just undressed herself.
Kuroko: She suddenly got undressed?
Saten: Huh?! That has to be the undresstress!
Uiharu: Are you all right, guys?!
Kuroko: L-Let go of me!
Saten: T-Text me her picture later! Her picture!
Sonic: Wow, they seem to be serious to see her.
Misaka: Now listen, don't get carried away and link her to some urban legend. She may be a little odd, but she's just a regular...
Woman: When you say odd, are you talking about me?
Misaka: No, don't be silly! I mean, nabbing a total stranger like me and... you know...
Misaka hangs up the phone.
Woman: To thank you two for accompanying me.
The woman gives both of them a drink.
Sonic: Thanks.
Misaka: Then I accept. Ow...
Sonic: Hmm? Soup Curry?
Misaka: (Why something hot? And Soup Curry, at that.)
Woman: When it's hot out, a warm drink is better for you. Besides, the spices in Curry contain things that relieve fatigue.
Sonic: At least the drink is good.
Sonic drinks the whole drink in a matter of seconds.
Misaka: Well, I think I understand the theory of it, but emotionally, I think I'd rather have something cold...
Woman: Emotionally? That's right, younger girls do make decisions that way, don't they? I'll buy something else. What would you like?
Misaka: Oh, that's okay, that's okay! The sentiment is more than enough.
Woman: Sorry about this. Maybe it's because all I do is research, but I have a habit of always thinking about things logically.
Sonic: You do research?
Misaka: So, you're a scientist?
Woman: Cerebrophysiology, I primarily research AIM diffusion fields.
Misaka: That's the weak power that is emitted in the area around espers without them even knowing it, right?
Woman: Yeah. You've already learned about it in your classes?
Misaka: Yes, my first year.
Misaka jugs the whole drink as she struggles to swallow it.
Sonic: Thankfully, I don't have School.
Misaka: Lucky you.
Sonic: I'll take the cans for you.
Misaka: Thanks.
Woman: Your a nice guy.
Sonic: Of course I am.
Sonic walks with the cans into a narrow path to where the garbage is.
Sonic: There we go. Now then, off to...
Sonic then herd a sudden noise.
Sonic: Hmm?
The noise got closer and closer as Sonic sees something behind him.
A sudden slash was coming for Sonic, but he dodges it.
