         Mikan was so close now that Hajime could taste her breath. "Please come out and play...Kamukura" she purred in his ear. Hajime was fighting with everything he had to keep control.
         "Stop." He said quietly. "Please, just stop." He had backed himself against the wall, trying to get away from her. 
          "But I want to see...." She said running a hand down his bare chest. "It's a good thing that Komaeda talks in his sleep...he gives such wonderful information." With that she reached up and grabbed a clump of hair, pulling his head back so that he was forced to look at her. Then with the other hand, which had been behind her back the whole time, she revealed a small taser. Hajime tried squirming away from her, but he was pinned in place.
        "Why?" Was all he could ask before she placed the tip of the taser to his bare chest and pressed the trigger.  He was pushed aside, Izuru racing to the front as fast as he could.
         Izuru looked at her with a mix of curiosity and malice. "What a cunning little tramp." He said amused.
"You're really real?" She said letting go of his hair. "I had convinced myself that I imagined you." She had lowered her head and backed away slowly.
"Oh, little miss, I am quite real." He stood, stretching his arms over his head as he did. "Though I don't recall ever meeting you." He said looking at her for the first time now.
"It was only once, y....years ag...ago" she stammered.
"Ah, yes....Junko's little mouse." He said with a laugh. "So what can I do for you, Junko's Mouse?"
"M..m...my...n...na..name...is.....Mi...Mikan" she said quietly.
He simply looked at her and smiled. "Are you going to answer my question, Mikan?" He replied, a little annoyed by her very presence.
"I.....I wa....want t...to g..get to kn...know y....you." She says looking up at him now. "I...ccc...can help yyy...you with...Nagito." She smiled when she saw him look back at her surprised.
"No harm can come to him." He said looking away from her. "He is important to him."
"But h...h...he is in very ppp...poor health." She said reaching up now and touching his chest, circling the burn mark from the taser with her fingers. "It's only natural that he'd take a turn for the worse." She moved her head closer, her hand moving down to the waistband of his jeans. He looked away in disgust, and moved away from her. She lost her balance and flipped off of the cot to the floor.
"I'm not interested in your petty revenge." He bent down and placed two fingers on her chin. Lifting her face so her could look her in the eyes. "However, you can feed his insecurities." He said quietly. "If he were to leave on his own, then none of us will be to blame." He looked at Nekumaru, who was standing guard just inside of the cell. "Mikan! Are you okay?" He said in his best Hajime impression, then lowered his eyes to her again. "Play along." He saw Nekumaru coming towards them. "She slipped off of the bed." Izuru said as Nekumaru leaned down to help her up.
"Y...yes....I'm ssss....such a clumsy...gggg...girl." She said playing the victim as only she could. "I will come by tomorrow to take a look at those stitches." She said, turning and giving Izuru a knowing smile.
"Yeah, whatever." Izuru said distracted, then remembering himself smiled at her in return. Playing you is so exhausting, Little Mouse. "Please tell Nagito what I said." He said before turning his back to her, letting the smile fade.
"Come on Mikan," Nekumaru said with a laugh. "It's a good thing you are the Ultimate Nurse, as much as you get hurt." He led her out, locking the door behind them. "Now, what is it that you are supposed to tell Nagito?" He said when they were in the safety of the hallway.
"I...I....caaa....can't tell yyyy...you tthhh...that." She said.
         "For a second there, I was wondering if it was really Hajime." Nekumaru said rubbing the back of his neck. "Nagito said he is very good at masking." He said looking back through the small window. Hajime was sitting on his cot, staring straight at the door. "I will not make that mistake again." Nekumaru looked back at Mikan, and smiled. "Just think about what he said before delivering that message." He said softly.
           Mikan smiled and nodded. "Of course." She said, walking away.
