"Eulalie Ulalume."

Atsushi noticed Mikan calmly walking towards the outpost even though she would be seen. He looked at Dazai who just gave him a reassuring nod. As he was walking, he realized that his footsteps weren't making any sound.

"Tsubaki-san," he quietly called out and realized that no voice actually came out. He repeated calling again and nothing happened. Mikan stopped and signaled for him to cover his ears in which he did.

She took a deep breath and began humming out loud.

"None of you would notice anything for an hour," she commended and then motioned for Atsushi to follow her as she began running inside the building.

"We have a whole hour to find the file and leave this place unnoticed," she explained to him as she opened the door to the room where she believed the files were.

"Are there any blood in the room, Sushi?" she asked as she sensed that there was liquid in the room. The weretiger looked around and didn't see anything so he answered with a no.

"In that case, I will be taking this side and you should take the other side," she told him in which he followed.

"Help me look for the files of the new recruits around two to four years ago," she added as she removed her blindfold.

Minutes have passed and Atsushi handed her the files he gathered and noticed a glimpse of purple in her eyes. He thought that it was just a figment of his imagination but when he was going to look at her eyes again to confirm what he saw, Mikan already turned around and started skimming through the papers while humming.

After a few moments, the girl froze and became silent. He noticed the sudden silence so he looked at her to see if she was okay. He saw her putting a small case in her pocket first before facing him.

"Let's put these files back and leave, Sushi," she told him while smiling. As they were putting back the files, Atsushi snuck a glance at her eyes.

Black eyes.

Yep, he was convinced that what he saw was a figment of his imagination.

Footsteps could be heard from afar.

This called the attention of the two. Mikan immediately put on her blindfold and told Atsushi to hide beside the door as she took her cane.

"Close the door once the person entered the room."

The footsteps went pass the room where they were in. They waited for five minutes before they left the place.

Once they met up with Dazai, who was busy flirting with a woman and asking her to do a double suicide with him, the two of them just sweatdropped.

"Dazai," Mikan called out. Dazai faced them and greeted them.

"Did you find what you needed, Tsubaki-chan?" he asked her with a smile. She nodded and the three of them headed back to the Agency.

"Umm... Tsubaki-san," Atsushi called out to her. She looked at the boy silently telling him to continue.

"Who is the person you were told to find information of?"

"Someone who suddenly left the country. A source said that the person was from the mafia," she calmly answered and added, "and the client needed to know his whereabouts."

"Hmm? Then why did you go to an outpost if you can just do your usual method of searching a missing person?" the brunet asked as they reached the Agency. The ravenette looked so serious and didn't face them.

"To really make sure that he was from the mafia."

"Virginia, once we get there, your name will be Tsubaki Mikan," her cousin Neilson instructed her in which, she nodded.

"Tsubaki Mikan," she repeated so that she wouldn't forget. Her cousin handed her a small case. As she opened it, she saw black contact lenses.

"No one should know who you really are."

As she submitted the report to Kunikida, she frowned and glared at the floor.

"Are you okay, Tsubaki?" the yellow-haired male asked as he noticed her frown while he took the papers from her. She sighed and nodded but didn't change her facial expression. He knew something was up so he didn't ask more questions. Mikan bid farewell to them and quietly took off.

"Dazai, what did you do to piss her off like that?" Kunikida irritatedly asked.

"Hmm? I didn't do anything. She has been like that ever since they left the outpost."

"You did well," Neilson told her as he took his suitcase.

"You're leaving, cousin Neilson?" she asked him as she eyed the suitcase her cousin was holding. Her cousin nodded and patted her head.

"My wife needs me," he explained as he started walking away.

"Have a safe trip, cousin."

He waved at her and said, "Remember, don't let anyone know who you really are."

As she reached home, she quickly removed her contacts and looked at the ceiling.

"Why didn't you tell me that you joined the mafia?"

Author's note:

Eulalie
-Mikan's sound ability
-Drawbacks:
If she uses her voice, her voice will be strained. Overusing this ability could make her mute.
If she uses other things to create a sound, the thing (her cane for example) will slowly get destroyed.
If she uses this ability to attack the nervous system directly from eardrums to implant a "command" into a target's brain, she has to implant a command immediately or if someone beat her to it, she will also be affected.

Eulalie Ulalume
-All sounds that she and until 2 people made will be silent.
-Overusing this ability/Using this ability overtime could give her hallucinations. If the hallucinations went overtime, she will slowly fall into madness.

Eulalie Lenore
-Mikan can fly in a short while
-Overuse leads to exhaustion

Eulalie Ligeia
-Mikan's ultimate form. She could move very fast and silent. Everything she could do with her ability will be enhanced.
-If she uses this ultimate form, it slowly destroys her body if she uses it overtime.
