(Accelerator's POV)

"The last one's heart was reported to have been found where? ACG labs? But that's two miles away...that's just sick and plain twisted..." I heard Yomikawa say to a green haired girl.

"Oi, Yomikawa!" I walked over to her but some dumbass red head girl blocked my way, her arms extended out.

"This is anti-skill business, sir," she said. "civillians are not allowed to interfere."

"Ah...what a pain in the ass. Get your arm out of the way before I rip it off." I wasn't in the mood for this anti-skill shit, never was, never will be.

"Why you..!" She said, getting her baton out, as if she could damage me with it. I turned on my electrode, and the green haired girl sighed and walked off to the anti-skill truck.

"Miki, that's enough!" Yomikawa said, cutting off what that brat was going to say, and I turned off my electrode.

"B-but chief..! Tch." The brat stuttered, storming off.

"Accelerator, what the heck are you doing here?" Yomikawa asked, raising an eyebrow. "You know you're not supposed to be here, right?"

"You left this at home, you dumbass." I showed and threw her armband at her. "And what happened here?"

I glanced at the pile of dead bodies, observing them. Some of them had gaping holes where they hearts were supposed to be, some had no eyes, and one of them had no hands. The killer was probably a neat freak, they were stacked properly in some sort of corpse pyramid and the amount of blood on the crime scene was kept at a minimum.

"This is just the mere continuation of a massacre." Yomikawa said as she looked at the corpses, turning pale. "The one who did this is pretty brutal...all of the bodies are here, but the hearts and eyes were found elsewhere." She shuddered. "One even had no hands..."

"A teleporter, huh?"

"Possibly...but some of them had esper abilities, a mere teleporter couldn't have killed them that easily." She sighed.

"If the victims had esper powers," I groaned. "Wouldn't they have fought back or something and have the killer's DNA on them somewhere?"

"Well, when we autopsied the last batch of kills, it turns out, their times of death were only a couple of minutes apart from each other, it only took the killer a short amount of time to kill each one." Yomikawa said. "They were killed so quickly...I don't even think they had a chance to struggle..."

"What about the missing hearts and eyes and no-hands over there?" I asked. "If the killer was in such a hurry, why bother removing them?"

"A box cutter was found in one of that woman's severed hands. I think the killer cut them off in his defense." Yomikawa said. "And as for the hearts and eyes...they were killed that way...they were removed as cleanly as possible, it's like a surgeon did it or they just popped out of the victims' bodies...a teleporter couldn't have possibly done something like that, so we're thinking that the killer's ability is move point or something that enhances their speed."

"Chief, we have to go now." The green haired girl yelled from the anti-skill truck.

"Okay, I'll catch up with you in a minute." Yomikawa yelled back, and I started to walk away. "Hey Accelerator."

I stopped walking and turned around irritably.

"What?"

"The number of deaths this time isn't eight like the suspected murderer's usual number of kills." She paused. "You didn't by any chance...do this, did you?" She asked.

"That's a dumb question." I said and turned back around. "Why the heck would I imitate some petty serial killer, and most of all, why the hell would I stay up late and miss out on a nap just to kill some dumbasses? I could do that in broad daylight and nobody would bother to stop me." I sighed. "And if by chance you've forgotten, it's been really dull lately. I haven't killed anyone, or even gone out for the past week."

"Then, it's really him! It's gotta be the Annihilator who did this!" Without me noticing, the Miki brat was right next to us again, yelling and annoying the hell out of me.

"Stop screaming, brat." I scowled and she puffed her cheeks like a damned idiot. "And who the hell is that?"

"Thanks for butting in, you ass. His existence is none of your business." She said, putting her hand to her hips.

"Not like I'm that interested in anything you say, anyway."

"Good, then, stay out of our way! Kyu and I don't need you interfering!" Miki said, running away with some sort of cube dog. It didn't walk, it just bounced and made 'kyu' sounds everytime it hit the ground. What the hell...

"Wait, if you're here," Yomikawa said, her eyes growing wide. "then Last Order is..."

"Alone in the house. She's used to it and I told her—shit, I didn't tell her I was going out." I speedwalked to the convienience store, grabbing cans of black coffee and then making everyone in the line go away. I immediately went back to Yomikawa's apartment afterwards.

I was so pissed about not having black coffee that I left without telling the brat. Once I opened the door, an irk mark appeared on my head. The whole house was destroyed by an annoying clone ranting because I left her...again.

I sighed and sat on the couch, not paying any attention to the ranting brat.

"Where did you go?! Why did you leave Misaka alone?! Asks Misaka as Misaka doesn't wait for Accelerator's answer and asks another question!" She yelled into my ear and I winced.

"Shut up, brat, and don't yell into my damn ear, it's annoying." I said, dismissing the brat.

"But if Misaka doesn't, then you won't listen to Misaka!" The brat yelled again and I just looked away. "See? You're not paying any attention to Misaka at all!"

'Shut up brat, just shut up.' I thought to myself, sighing.

"Misaka is very angry at you now! Misaka won't talk talk to you anymore!" The brat yelled and I sighed in relief. Finally, the brat decided to shut up.

"Well..?" The brat said after a few moments.

"What do you want, brat?" I asked, looking at the brat.

"Misaka is waiting for your apology." She said.

"No." I growled. I wasn't going to apologize to this damn brat for leaving her for a few minutes.

"You aren't going to apologize to Misaka?" She said, her eyebrows knitted and her mouth forming into a frown.

"No. I was gone for less than an hour. Stop being annoying." I said, making her even angrier. I looked away from the brat and she started growling, and in a blink of an eye, I was tackled to the ground along with the couch.

"You fucking brat!"
