Flashback - 2 years ago - District 2, Judgment training grounds
"Now you are going through the kill house obstacle course!" The Instructor shouted at the now camouflage clad Judgment DSG Cadets. "This training is to teach all of you how to fight in close quarters and small environments!"
Touma and everyone else paid attention to the briefing, the scenario briefing and the weapons memorization course, the idea here is too teach the future Judgment DSG, Special Duties Unit, on how to do a CQC and CQB operations, which includes hostage rescue and arrest warrant operations, especially since two of them are the most important and dangerous.
This also includes equipment familiarisation in which includes on what type of body armour they would have available, what type of calibres they could stop and the type of ammo and bullets they could be facing out there, mostly in terms of what is usually available in the black market, as what the Royal Hong Kong Police had to face during the 70s to 80s.
From AKs, Grenades and other surplus pistols, everything that a criminal could get their hands on is talked about, mostly in terms of why those are found in the criminal elements, especially since the equipment talked about is very common in the black market and criminal market, the equipment while very common, it's the ammunition that makes it special.
"This will be a recreation of a case, where armed robbers have broken into an apartment complex and taken a family of 4 or 5 hostage, intel has it that there are 5 armed robbers, but with the hostages, we will not use Tear Gas." The instructor explained. "Now I will divide you into 3 teams of 2, Alpha, Bravo and Charlie." The instructor continued on. "Usually there will be sniper cover, but in this case, you will not have sniper cover for the moment."
The breachers set up the detcord breaching charges on the door hinges and the door knob, the police doesn't use high-explosives for breaching, detcord explosive and Tovex water-gel explosive because it's more stable, as the teams both stacked up for a breach and clear.
"Safe. Safe." The breacher announced.
"Alpha Ready." Alpha radioed in.
"Bravo Ready." Bravo radioed in.
"Charlie Ready." Charlie radioed in.
"GO!" The Instructor shouted and the door was blown wide open, the pointman was first to get through and saw the first target right in front of him, a masked armed robber, he was quick to open fire.
"Down one!" He called out as his partner moved to clear his left flank while he cleared the right.
"Down two!" His Partner called out as he downed a target hidden behind the fridge of the simulated kitchen.
"Takashi, cover the corridor!" Touma radioed in as they moved down the corridor.
On the final corridor there are two doors and with possible hostages inside, they decided to use the tools they have to breach the doors, and as such Touma pulled out the breaching hammer and prepared to break the door in as Charlie's team prepared the breaching shotgun.
Unanimously they both broke down the door, Takashi joining back with Touma quickly moved in and saw another target, and fired quickly.
"Down three!" Takashi shouted as he moved to secure the closet and bathroom while Touma covered him from the doorway.
Charlie Team, upon hearing the hammer striking the door quickly blew the door knob off and kicked it open, seeing a target the breacher's partner quickly shot the target and moved in while the breacher covered him from the doorway.
The partner quickly went around and like Takashi moved to secure the closet and bathroom, but with two targets missing, Alpha who was guarding the living room and kitchen quickly moved towards the hostage targets and checked on them for weapons and found both with a M1911 taped to the back of the targets.
"Four and five arrested!" The breacher of Alpha radioed in upon seeing the taped pistols.
"Room Clear!" Takashi shouted upon hearing Alpha's transmission.
"Room Clear!" They heard Charlie called out.
"AREA SECURE!" Touma announced to the instructors.
The instructors came down and started to grade and criticise or ask them for justification on why they open fired on the targets, which range from why did they open fire or why didn't they open fire, which is centralised on the idea that the shooting team and the investigators will questioned on, for example why did one used a breaching shotgun while other used a breaching hammer.

Last Night - Judgement DSG District 7 Compound
"Safe and sent." Touma announced from his desk.
"What, you're done with your report?" Makoto asked Touma from his desk.
"Yep, the chronological order on our response, the negotiations and the reasoning on why we opened fire." Touma replied back leaning into his chair.
"So, that means…" Makato was about to ask when Touma cut him off.
"It means it's up to the Shooting team to interview me." Touma said to Makato.
"Lucky bastard." Makato jokingly said to Touma.
"Want something from the fridge?" Touma asked as Makoto went back to his reports and Touma went to grab some drinks in the mini fridge, and suddenly the entire compound plunged into darkness before the backup generators kicked in.
"Oh you have got to be kidding me!" Makoto screamed upon his computer restarting.
"At least you saved it right?" Touma said with a sigh, knowing who is probably responsible for this.
"Yeah, but I had to do an entire chapter all over again." Makoto complained.
"Yeah, yeah, here." Touma replied by giving Makoto a can of soda. "Calm down, it's the weekend tomorrow anyway."
"But tomorrow is my day off! I have plans." Makoto replied, taking a sip of his soda.
"Do it tonight, and you'll be happy to have a weekend." Touma replied deadpanned.
"Right. Working late again." Makoto bemoaned his fate.
Touma could only sigh and took a sip of his soda and looked out into the darken Academy City skyline, in which he could only wonder, what the hell did Misaka got herself into to cause a near city wide blackout, which he could only guess the madness it's going to generate tomorrow, luckily most of the DSG Night Patrol is out and in force, hopefully it will enforce the curfew.

Present - Mizuho Medical Institute
The current Blackout has caused some disruption in Academy City, mostly due to the Traffic Lights, but besides deactivated ACs and rolling black outs, the city is mostly fine, the only problem is the snarling traffic jam the city is facing with the traffic lights offline, as such everyone is late one way or another due to the situations.
Sergeant Touma and Constable Tony arrived at Heaven Canceller's Hospital in their Ford Focus ST ARV, the stranglehold the City is in due to the black out means that Group 6 is out in force to support regular Judgment to control traffic, which means the City is in a near standstill due to the blackout killing the traffic lights, and after parking their ARV they walked into the Hospital and towards the receptionist.
"Sergeant Kamijou Touma and Constable Stamp Tony with Judgement." Touma introduced both of them. "We're here to meet Hatsuya's doctor?
"Right, we've been expecting you two." The nurse manning the reception desk nodded and pointed them down the corridor. "Just down the corridor, the doctor will be there to meet you.
"Thank you." Touma replied with a smile before beaconing Tony to follow him.
"I hope the doctor has an idea on why Hatsuya-san would collapse into a coma." Tony said to Touma. "Don't want a disciplinary action in our records if he collapses due to trauma caused by us.
"I wouldn't put my hopes up Tony." Touma replied back. "In this line of work, things aren't always so simple until they are." Touma continued before adding. "Besides, Misaka Mikoto was the one to punch him."
They just reached the corridor where they just heard Kuroko introduce herself.
"I'm Detective Constable Shirai Kuroko of Judgment," Kuroko introduced herself as she and Mikoto came to a stop in front of the doctors and presented her armband to the doctor. "We are here regarding the sudden coma that Kaitabi Hatsuya has fallen into."
"Oh yes," The doctor explained that Kaitabi had passed out.
"Um, I punched him pretty hard once…" Mikoto volunteered timidly remembering the punch when they arrested him.
"Well, there's no sign of brain damage." The doctor smiled in amusement before frowning as he looked back at the report. "In fact his entire body is healthy. He's just unconscious, strangely enough."
"So what you're saying is that you don't know what's causing this." Kuroko said flatly.
"I hate to admit it, but this is beyond the capabilities of this hospital and its staff." The doctor admitted as he explained. "So I've called in an outside specialist in neurophysiology."
"Is it that strange?" Touma asked out loud, causing them to turn around and look at the two of them.
"It's kind of embarrassing to admit." The doctor continued, "The odd thing is, we've been getting a ton of patients like these over the past week. They all show no signs of brain damage, body functions all appear to be healthy, but they just keep falling into comas." He then showed them the PDA with various patient profiles, most of which were a DSG Arrest.
"Damn it, and most of them are low enough that they don't warrant a call to the arresting station or officer." Touma replied with a snarl.
"And whatever is causing this is spreading." Tony said as he pointed to a girl in the mass of profiles. "I know that one, she was feeling ill so I called an ambulance."
"Sorry to have kept you waiting." A woman with long blond hair and baggy eyes said as she approached. But both Touma and Mikoto recognized and remembered vividly for her unique habit both in different times.
"Wait aren't you…" Touma was lost for words when he saw the women.
"I came here at the request of the hospital director." The woman started her introduction, "My name is Harumi Kiyama."
"Why are you here?" Touma and Mikoto asked in surprise simultaneously.
"Sorry but I'll have to catch up with you later sergeant." Harumi said flatly to Touma before going to Misaka. "You too kid." As she took the PDA offered and examined them quickly. "Do you mind if I go in and examine them?" She asked the doctor.
"By all means." The doctor replied as he and Harumi entered the ward.
"Well I guess we have to wait then." Tony said out loud.
"Right, let's wait at the lobby, it's cooler there." Touma added.

Present - Mizuho Medical Institute
While the current Blackout has caused some disruption in Academy City, most of the vending machines still work, meaning a cold drink is still available even in the summer heat, so as they wait Dr Harumi Kiyama to finish her examination, the quartet are waiting at the lobby of the hospital, Mikoto falling asleep with Kuroko sitting next to her while Touma and Tony went to get some cold drinks.
In one of the hallways near the lobby near the hospital canteen, Touma and Tony are ordering cold drinks for Mikoto, Kuroko and the both of them, mostly because the summer heat isn't bearable in the Hospital where the AC wasn't turned on and luckily since they are first, they get first score on drinks.
"What do you think of the Doctor, Sarge?" Tony asked Touma who reached and grabbed the cold drinks and handed Tony one.
"I don't know, the one time I met her, she decided to strip in front of me after forgetting where she parked her car." Touma sighed remembering the incident. "That was very much uncomfortable for me."
"Seriously?" Tony asked, shocked at the explanation before taking a sip of his soda.
"Yeah, it took Mikoto-san there to get her to dress again." Touma added not wanting to remember the incident as he continued to punch more orders from the vending machine.
"Say, how do you know the Railgun anyway?" Tony asked again, this time curious about the story on how his Sergeant met the ace of Tokiwadai aka. The Railgun.
"Met her once off duty and shut down her power." Touma started out remembering the first time he met Mikoto. "Mostly I wanted to clear the area so the nearby DSG Patrol could catch the delinquents" Touma then sighed. "But she misinterpreted the reason why and now she wants to prove a point about being able to beat me fair and square."
"So she likes you." Tony chuckled. "She's a Tsundere then."
"Nah, she wants to prove that I'm not a Level 0." Touma replied off-handedly as he ordered another couple of drinks from the vending machine. "By firing her Railgun at me at every chance she can."
"What? She doesn't believe you?" Tony asked as the Machine took the order and basically spat out 2 cold drinks again. "Even if she's friends with Detective Constable Shirai Kuroko?"
"I don't think Mikoto-san liked relying on DC Kuroko." Touma replied as he took the 2 cold drinks again. "DC Kuroko is infamous for being in love with her roommate, Mikoto, I heard she managed to chase away Mikoto's old roommate."
"Right if that's the case I wouldn't want to rely on her too much too." Tony replied, ordering his drink from the vending machine.
"Maybe." Touma replied back.
.
After Tony got their drink, they headed back to the hospital lobby where they left the two girls as they went out to the vending machine, as they walked back to the lobby they heard a hard smack, they both shared a look and entered the lobby, upon entering the lobby, they saw Mikoto wide awake and punching Kuroko in the head and Dr. Kiyama approaches the group.
"This isn't a fairy tale, you know!" Mikoto reprimanded her roommate who was clutching her head from the punch by a pissed off Misaka Mikoto.
"But it did work. You're awake now, aren't you?" Kuroko reasoned with a smile at Mikoto as she clutched her head in pain.
"That's unexpected. Why are you four still here?" Kiyama asked upon seeing the quartet.
"That's because Dr Kiyama, there's something we need to ask you as the attending doctor of one Kaitabi Hatsuya." Touma explained stepping up.
"Ok then." Kiyama replied before continuing. "I find it unbelievably hot in here." Kiyama noted as she fanned herself a little. "It's the middle of summer, shouldn't they at least turn on the air conditioning for us?"
"You do make a good point." Kuroko agreed with the Doctor.
"I'm very sorry, but we had a power outage last night." Nurse said to the group as she passed them pushing a trolley. "Things haven't been restored to normal quite yet."
"Alright then, they're using emergency power for basic operations and critical patients." Kiyama concluded as she pulled off her tie, the quartet could only watch in shock as Kiyama began to take off all her clothes, which caused varying reactions.
"You've got to be kidding me!" Touma yelled in exasperation as he turned away from the sight.
"I thought you were joking, Sarge!" Tony said to Touma as he joined his sergeant.
"Again? Seriously?" Mikoto asked in shock at the sight.
"Your solution to this is to take off all your clothing?!" Kuroko yelled.
"Well, it's really hot in here, you know," The half-naked researcher reasoned.
"We're not alone, there are people everywhere!" Kuroko argued.
"What if I just leave my underwear on?" Kiyama negotiated with Kuroko.
"No! That's not going to work!" Kuroko shouted as she began to button up the doctor's shirt.
"Dr. Kiyama, we're really interested in your opinion on these patients as a specialist." Mikoto requested, hoping to distract the doctor before she could strip anymore, luckily she was successful at keeping Kiyama from stripping.
"I'd be happy to help you," Kiyama said in a monotone voice, "It's so hot in here."
"Can we offer you a place where we know air conditioning is still active?" Touma offered.
"Sure why not, it's better than this sauna of a Hospital." Kiyama replied.
"Sure, meet us at the main entrance while we get the car around." Touma confirmed before tugging Tony to follow. "Come on Tony, we need to get the Panda."
"Right away Sarge." Tony replied following Touma close behind. "So was that…"
"I don't want to talk about it Tony." Touma replied as they went to the parking lot.
"No I mean, should we put the AC on full blast?" Tony asked Touma.
"Yes, yes we should." Touma replied with a sigh.
"Great, that'll take a while to cool the car then." Tony said as they entered the parking lot and towards their patrol car.
"Come on, let's pick them up." Touma replied as he opened the door and got into the passenger seat, with Tony into the driver's seat.
"Well at least this one would be easier." Tony replied as he started up the Ford and activated the AC full blast.

Present - Shopping District somewhere in District 7
Even with the blackout the shopping district is always busy, people going around doing their shopping or even just having fun. Underneath a walkway in the shopping district, Uiharu is waiting for Saten, who has something to show her.
"Mm, Saten sure is late today." Uiharu remarked as she tapped her feet impatiently as she glanced at her phone. "I wonder what is taking her so long?"
While waiting she didn't keep her guard of her surroundings and suddenly Uiharu felt a draft beneath her skirt, which means only one thing is happening.
"Oh, so its blue stripes today!" The very familiar voice of Saten commented cheerily.
"KIYA!!" Uiharu cried out in panic as she realised that Saten had snuck up on her and had lifted her skirts for the world to see.
After getting her skirt down and complaining about Saten lifting her skirt, they had moved away from the more crowded walkway to somewhere more quiet and empty.
Apparently Saten is still off duty as she isn't wearing her uniform but in her street clothes, but Uiharu could see the Judgment Armband and her Warrant Card holder in Saten's jean pockets
"In your email said you had something to show me something?" Uiharu asked as Saten looked very excited and was about to explode into a song and dance.
"That's right and I can't wait anymore!" Saten declared loudly. "This thing is so incredible!" Saten continued as she started to dance. "The elusive item we all have been looking for! Tada." She shoved her Judgment issue Smartphone in Uiharu's face.
"That just looks like a music file?" Uiharu said blankly, she couldn't fathom what is so important about a music file Saten managed to download off the internet.
"Ah, but it's what's on it that really matters." Ruiko winked at Uiharu, as if she had found the most top secret file ever. "Just wait, I'll show you later ok?" Saten added as she started to walk away from Uiharu and beaconed her to follow.
Uiharu just sighed and followed her friend and colleague to whatever location Saten had in mind, in which case she could think of all the various desserts she could buy and get.

Present - Joseph's Coffee and Restaurant - District 7
A little while later, the four students had taken Dr. Kiyama to Joseph's Coffee and Restaurant, the usual hang out for Mikoto, Kuroko and from time to time, Touma, to discuss the coma patients. The four of them were all seated at a booth with a few drinks of their choice to help ease the heat and focus.
"I'd like to continue where we left off, if it's okay." Kiyama started after their drinks had arrived, while Mikoto and Kuroko sat right in front of her, Tony and Touma sat on the table right behind her, mostly to keep their conversation quiet and prevent people from eavesdropping in. "Why are swimsuits acceptable, and underwear is not when they both expose the same amount of skin?"
Unfortunately, Dr. Kiyama was focused on another topic which is not a part of their discussion, which luckily if anyone is eavesdropping they would mistake what Dr. Kiyama was talking about instead of the Level-Upper.
"No, that isn't the point." The two girls answered flatly while Tony and Touma both in pure disbelief at what Dr. Kiyama started with.
"Can we get back on track with the Level-Upper?" Touma asked the doctor.
"Right… This… Level Upper… can you tell me what kind of thing it is?" Kiyama asked everyone. "What does it do? How is it used?"
"Unfortunately, we don't know." Kuroko admits for the entire CID of Judgment.
"No details so far, but it might have something to do with those who have fallen into comas recently," Kiyama concluded from what Kuroko was telling them. "That's what you think, yes?"
"Right." Kuroko answered.
"Why bring this problem to me?" Kiyama asked her.
"We've been giving it some serious thought lately," Kuroko explained to the doctor. "It seems that elevating one's ability might well disrupt normal brain function. If that's the case, then I think
we'll need help when we find this thing, and I think your professional experience could be invaluable."
"This is something I'd be happy to help with. I am a cerebral physiologist, it's my area. Aside from that, there is something else that's been bothering me." The baggy eyed researcher said as she looked out the window. "Who are those girls?"
Much to the students' surprise, Uiharu and Saten could be seen just outside the window, smiling at them. This normally wouldn't be such a strange sight, were it not for the fact that Saten was pressed against the glass, wearing a much larger grin than one would expect from someone who was happy to see her friends.
After letting themselves in the restaurant, Uiharu and Saten joined their friends at the booth and ordered a few things for themselves. The two were quickly caught up on the situation, making sure everyone was on the same page.
"Oh, so you're a brain doctor?" Uiharu asked for confirmation.
"Are you here to look at Shirai's brain?" Saten joked with a chuckle..
"We're conferring with her about the Level Upper matter." Kuroko explained to Saten, looking unamused with her joke..
"Well, if that's the case…" Saten said cheerfully as she reached into her pocket.
"This is serious. Anybody found in possession of it will be taken into custody." Mikoto said seriously.
"Isn't that a bit extreme?" Uiharu asked, shocked at Mikoto's reply.
"The investigation is ongoing, so I can't tell you everything." Kuroko explained to Uiharu. "It does seem that its users suffer some side effects." Before grimacing as if she's about to say something uncomfortable. "Anyway, I find the users of any drug usually turn to crime." Kuroko admitted with a grimace.
"Then luckily what I have is not possession but evidence." Saten cheerily replied as she slapped her Smartphone onto the table along with her Judgment Armband and Warrant Card, unfortunately the slapping of her Smartphone onto the table had accidentally spilled a glass of ice tea onto Kiyama's stockings. "Ah! I'm so sorry!" Saten apologised in a panic.
"Please don't worry about it. It just got on my stockings, so once I took them off…" Kiyama explained as she got out of her seat and did her usual routine.
The girls besides Kuroko, could only respond with a surprised blush as Kiyama took off her skirt and began to roll down her stained stockings, for Tony and Touma kept looking at the empty table across them, unlike Kuroko, who could only respond in anger at this point.
""How many times do we have to tell you not to take your clothing off while you're in public!" Kuroko shouted at Dr. Kiyama.
"Look at me for a second. I'm not particularly special. No man in here is going to care about seeing my body." Kiyama calmly reasoned.
"Everyone has different tastes, so you can't really know! Besides which, it's not only men you should be thinking about, you know!" Kuroko argued back.
"Sarge is this…" Tony trailed off.
"Yes, welcome to my patrols." Touma replied with a sigh of resignation
By the time Kuroko had managed to prevent Dr. Kiyama from stripping her leggings, the sun was starting to go down and everyone decided it was time to head out.
"I know you're busy, so thank you for giving us this information." Kuroko said to the researche.
"No, I thank you," Kiyama insisted with a smile. "This has reminded me of the time when I was a teacher. I enjoyed it."
"I didn't realise you were a teacher before." Kuroko admitted with a smile.
"I was once." Kiyama replied before walking off, "Bye."
"I don't know what to say. She's a little different, huh?" Kuroko mused as they watched the researcher leave.
"Aren't you a little different too?" Uiharu joked at Kuroko.
"Alright then." Kuroko said, ignoring Uiharu's jab at her. "I think it's time we head back to the office now."
"That's a good idea, and we should gather whatever data we have for Dr. Kiyama." Uiharu agreed.
"Yeah, you're right. Okay then, so we're all ready to head back to the branch then, yeah?" Kuroko asked the rest of her friends.
"Saten, Tony and I have to go back to the District 7 Station." Touma explained with a wave before leaving.
"Eh?!" Kuroko suddenly cried out when she realised the only car they have for transport is being whisked away.

Present - Judgement DSG District 7 Compound
The next day Saten had gone back to work at the District 7 Station, but she isn't at her posting at the Computer Assisted Dispatch Centre, but at the Forensics Rooms, wondering about the Level-Upper Music file she had found and downloaded, with what had happened at the restaurant they forgot to give Dr. Kiyama, the music file but at least a courier had been sent to give the doctor a copy of the file.
"So what did you find out?" Saten asked the computer specialist.
"Nothing much, just mostly random sound and bits of music, here take a listen." The computer specialist replied offering Saten the spare headset.
Unfortunately for them both, they will find out that was the worst thing they could have done with the Level-Upper music file.

Present - Near the old condemned school District 7
Touma and his patrol team is going around some potential Level Upper distribution sites mostly as heavy back up for the Judgment Investigators, Anti-Skill is nearby for the firepower, but mostly they haven't seen much, as the Specialist Carrier Van turned a corner, their radio suddenly blared out.
<<"Officer needs assistance, possible Level-Upper deal in progress, suspects are armed and dangerous.">>
"Step on it!" Touma shouted at the driver as the Dispatcher reported the location.
"On it Sarge!" The Driver replied as the van sped down the road towards the old condemned school.
As they turned a corner into the condemned school a pipe suddenly struck their windshield.
"Oh my horrible luck." Touma cursed as he opened his door and drew out his revolver. "ARMED POLICE!" Touma announced as the van opened up and deposited the entire Patrol Team with their Shotgun, SMG Carbine and Revolvers. "Give it up!"
"Tch, more of them!" One of the thugs muttered.
"Deal with them anyway, DSG is where they dump level zeros anyway." The other thug replied.
"Oh really?" A voice behind them asked, causing them to turn and see one of the DSG officers wearing a riot helmet and a baton at the ready. "Nice of you to underestimate us."
Then the fighting commenced, one of the thugs quickly tried to bash the DSG officer's head in with his ability, which is to make any object much heavier to anyone but himself, but unfortunately he's still a thug, and his opponent is a trained Judgment Agent.
The DSG officer dodged letting the pipe fly past him surprising the thug only to have a Baton bashed into his legs and kick to the face, the other thugs rushed Touma and the remaining DSG officers, one speeds up and tries to punch Touma who dodges to the right letting the fist fly past his head before grabbed his opponent's right arm and threw him right at the DSG Van, incapacitating him.
.
The other two armed with a pipe and knife rushed the remaining three DSG officers who didn't even flinched, the one with a pipe got his pipe parried away with the DSG officer's shotgun before the buttstock of said shotgun was bashed right into the stomach of the thug, the other with the knife found himself more trouble, as the officer kicked his knife from his hand and did another kick to the chest, when the thug fell down he found himself staring right into the barrel of the SIG MPX.
Two DSG officers went and secured the first two suspects Kuroko manage to incapacitate while the last DSG officer went to the victim and escorted him away from the fight just as the Anti-Skill officers arrived on scene, while the fight was mostly over with the thugs restrained, there is still one and Kuroko is directly fighting him.
After giving the Anti-Skill officers the two suspects they were ready to rush into the building to help Kuroko when the building had collapsed right in front of them, and Kuroko had the thug on his knees in fear.
"Damn it Kuroko." Touma muttered, the only lucky thing is that the building was condemned. "I see you had things on hand." Touma said sarcastically as he approached Kuroko.
"Save it for the report." Kuroko replied to Touma before turning her attention to her suspect. "What's with the music player?" Kuroko demanded when the thug was showing her the music player he had on hand.
"But, the Level Upper." The thug said uneasily at the sight of both a DSG Sergeant and a psychotic Judgment Officer. "It's a song."
"What did you say?" Kuroko asked in confusion.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN A SONG!" Touma shouted after grabbing the thug's collar.
"It's a song! It's a song we found on the Internet!" The thug said in a blind panic.
"Tch." Touma tsked before shoving him to the Anti-Skill officers. "Take him away before I lose my temper." Touma said to the Anti-Skill officers. "Are you freaking kidding me!" Touma shouted out loud.

Present - Judgement DSG District 7 Compound
"OFFICER DOWN!" Saten shouted into her radio as she dragged the unconscious computer specialist out of the Forensics Room. "Officer down at the forensics room!" Saten continued to shout.
Suddenly two more Group 3 Officers arrived and helped carry the unconscious computer specialist out of the Forensics Room and towards the lobby where an ambulance would arrive to pick him up.
Saten could only breathe heavily as she leaned back to the wall behind her, that computer specialist has been working on the song since yesterday when she submitted the evidence after downloading it, and probably had a whole day listening to the song trying to figure it out.
Now she's infected, she had unintendedly infected herself with the Level-Upper, and now she's going to fall unconscious like the computer specialist, and she knew it, so she did the only thing she could do, pull out her good luck charm and her phone and dial a certain number.
As the phone rang, Saten lamented what had happened, and as the phone continued to ring she let out a small smile then someone answered the phone.
"Hello Uiharu?" Saten called out.
"Finally, I've been worried about you." Uiharu replied happily.
"Uiharu, he just collapsed." Saten said to Uiharu who didn't reply. "I listened to the Level-Upper with him and he just collapsed."
"Never mind where you are now!" Uiharu replied, breathing heavily as she started running.
"District 7 Station." Saten replied back with a smile.
"Don't worry Saten, I'll be there with you!" Uiharu called out as she kept running.
"Thanks Uiharu, for being a good friend." Saten replied happily before collapsing, dropping the phone.
"Saten?" Uiharu called out when she heard the phone drop. "Saten!" Then she heard it.
"Saten's down!" A voice called out. "We have an Officer down!."
