A new Esper Counter Measure (ECM) device which can block psychic abilities is tested on The Children without them knowing, and Kaoru injures her hand because of it, and gets very angry at the chief. Later, The Children fall into a trap set up by the Normal People who has stolen the new ECM and capture The Children and Minamoto. They torture him to tell him the password into B. A. B. E. L.'s computer mainframe, but he does not tell until they bring in Kaoru with the threat that she will get hurt. However, the password he tells them deletes all the files they attempted to access, and activates a temporary Esper Counter Counter Measure (ECCM) device which gives The Children back their powers for a short time. After the battery in the laptop runs out, one of the Normal People almost kills Minamoto which causes Kaoru to go berserk and cause the culprit considerable pain, nearly killing him. Minamoto manages to calm her down before she goes too far.
