^I don't think that Mikoto will be needing some rescue from Touma, even before she acquired the AAA Suit she's strong in her own way and now that she just acquired the AAA Suit it was revealed that Aleister recognizes both Mikoto and Kamisato as a threat—not to mention that Misaka's intelligence, power and versatility is ridiculous and having her to understand magic and know what's beyond the barrier of horizon, yeah the Esper who will destroy Aleister and his plan is born. If there will be any saving act, I think it will be the Sisters (specifically Misaka 10032) or the will of the Misaka Network reminding Mikoto about her humanity and the reason why she wish to be stronger, and that is to protect everything that is important to her.

Another thing,  I think the reason why Mikoto's character is not that develop yet is because it's being reserve at the climax of the story, she's the last one who will receive a character development as the 'Representative' and Pride of the entire series. Perhaps, save the best spot for the last moment? In any case, if you're going to speculate New Testament is more likely featuring Mikoto and Touma (not the shipping part) but the fact that Mikoto's wish is so relevant to the story that it actually moved the plot till this point, it was even emphasized by Kamachi himself in the afterword of New Testament 13 that Mikoto developing various emotions since Old Testament 1 is relevant in the story. If you're going to ask me, it seems that Mikoto and Touma are the protagonists of New Testament, not sure what happened with Index, but I've read some comments from Animesuki stating that Index was left behind in the Old Testament that even Accelerator and Hamazura is more relevant to her than the story, although they also stated that Index might be the final key that will tie all of Aleister's plan—someone even commented that it is the reason why the series is entitled Toaru Majutsu NO INDEX.
