There was another recent arrival to the museum.

Of course, she wasn't joined up with the others yet, and really she wasn't sure if she was going to hang around and wait to see what they needed to do. For the moment, she was trying to restrain herself. But it wasn't easy, not even slightly. And... well, there was one thing she had no intention of restraining herself for. It stood before her, gleaming. she'd even given it a chance, trusted it... and it had failed her entirely. No, it had betrayed her. And there was only one way to get back what she had lost.

Misaka Mikoto squared herself up, standing at the ready. She swung her leg back... and swung it forward, hard, driving it sharply into the side of her foe. There was a clank, as it rocked... and then dispensed her choice of drink.

The vending machine kept a hold on her money. While this was pretty irritating, at least it had actually given Mikoto her drink. It just needed an extra little push, which she was used to giving. It's just that this vending machine she'd given a chance to. It was in a different dimension and all. But no, it had simply done exactly one a certain vending machine in her home dimension usually did. She shouldn't have given it the chance.

The brown-haired girl pulled the tab on her drink, popping it open, and took a sip.

At least it was cold.

"Great!" replied Katsumi with a grin. Oh yes, this was awesome. It was perfect, even! She'd still have to go meet up with her fellow officers... but if she ran into the bad guys first, well... taking them down was priority, right? Stopping them from hurting anyone and doing any damage! She wasn't about to just let them run off if she could help it, no way, never in a million years! "You've got just the right kind of attitude!"

It was worth noting that Katsumi was only around 4'5. She was not a tall girl at all.

"We're going to meet up with my fellow officers! But if we run into the bad guys on the way, well..." Katsumi's grin grew wider. There wasn't a single person in the whole multiverse who could stand up to her! "I'm going to take them down! After all, I'm the girl who's going to stop every villain I can!"
