AN: This is a quick prologue to a story idea I have. I want to continue it into a full story but I can't guarantee it will be updated soon. Please leave comments about what you think. This takes place after the Daihasei Festival arc.

Saten Ruiko was a level 0 esper that loved looking into urban legends and rumors inside Academy City. She was friends with Uiharu Kazari, Shirai Kuroko, and Misaka Mikoto. All three had helped her in the past to look into urban legends as a group activities for fun but today Saten found an urban legend that got her attention that she would not be able to look into with any of them. Uiharau would tell her it wasn't any of her business, Kuroko would turn into a monster, and Misaka wouldn't help for obvious reasons since the urban legend she wants to look into is the rumored boyfriend of 'Railgun', Misaka Mikoto's nickname.

Saten remembered many instances that lead to the fact that Misaka in fact did have a boyfriend. There was the time where Misaka had asked Saten for help making cookies. She had obviously not wanted anyone to know about it.

She also heard she met with a boy and said they were going on a date right in front of Tokiwadai dorms. It had been a topic whispered around Misaka for quite a while.

Then of course there was the incident at Daihasei Festival where she lent the lucky charm to a boy who needed it for a scavenger hunt and when he returned it he seemed to know who Misaka was. On top of that the boy made Misaka blush. Of course Saten made sure they ended up dancing together and it left Misaka in a happy daze for more than a week.

Saten was sure if the rumor of 'Railgun' having a boyfriend was true. This boy was the source of it. She would investigate it to find if it was true or not.

"Who is Kamijou Touma?"

Saten was in her room trying to figure out where to start. She had no access to a database to find out where the boy was from. Or even what school he was from. Then the idea hit her. The Daihasei scavenger hunt. The results could be found online and the school each student that competed in the event would be shown in the results.

"Certain High School? I've never heard of it. I thought Misaka would be interested in someone who was a higher level. Maybe he is at the top of his school. He could be a level 3 or even a level 4."

Saten's first move in the investigation was to go to the school, but there was a problem with that. It was break right now so there was no way she would be able to find him by going to the school. She decided that at least wandering around the area of the school she had a chance of running into him.

She spent more time than she will ever admit dodging her friends and searching the 7th district for a certain boy. She had no luck in her search until after one day of searching she was tired and thirsty and entered a park to a find a vending machine. When she rounded the corner she was surprised not to only find the quarry of her search but also Misaka Mikoto. She hid in a bush where she could observe the two of them.

The two were sitting on a bench drinking from cans they had received from the vending machine.

She watched the two for over an hour. They just sat together and talked. Although the amount of drinks the two of them had beaten out of the vending machine over that hour was surprising but it seemed like she had solved this legend a little too easily.

Eventually Misaka got up and left the park and the boy was alone. Saten was about to leave when she noticed a figure come out of the shadows.

Saten didn't think she had ever seen someone who has ever looked as shady as this guy. He was tall and slender European. He had red hair down to his shoulder and was dressed in all black. He was smoking a cigarette and had a barcode tattoo under his eye.

He walked up to Kamijou and started talking to him, but what Saten heard worried her more than anything else in the world.

"The Railgun doesn't know anything does she?"

"Don't worry about her I made sure she will be far away from it tomorrow."

"Good. Now as long as Anti-Skill and Judgment don't get in the way the plan will go accordingly. If they get in the way it will ruin everything. Have you talked with our spy about the plan?"

"He will be there. He always gets the job done."

Saten couldn't believe what was going on. Spies? Avoiding Anti-Skill and Judgement? They were making sure Misaka was out of the way. She needed to tell someone and let them know what was going on.
