In the ADA office

Whilst most were working, Kunikida was looking out the window. Spying on Dazai and Aika, if you will.

"Is Aika okay?" Junichiro asked innocently.

Kunikida adjusted his glasses and stepped away from the glass. "She's fine, Dazai's with her." Aika had been a member of the agency for 3 years, the others are used to her anxiety attacks like this. However, Atsushi and Kiyoka are new members, so they don't know much about Aika.

When Aika returned, along with Dazai. She immediately sat at her desk and started typing on her computer before stopping. She looked up at Kyouka, cocking her head to the side. "You, what's your name?"

Unfazed, the young girl spoke. "Kyoka Izumi." Aika nodded. "Tell me about your ability!" She rolled her chair to Kiyoka and rested her chin on her palm.

"My ability is called Demon Snow, it allows me to materialize a female sword-wielding phantom." The young girl explained. Aika's eyes lit up.

"Wow, and you can command this phantom?" Kyoka nodded. "Awesome! Very powerful I'm guessing?" Aika turned her head to the others who nodded vigorously.

She rolled back to her desk and stretched her arms out with a yawn. "You guys want to go train?" Everybody looked at each other with their eyebrows raised. Aika gasped "Don't tell me you guys haven't been training?"

"It's no fun training without you!" Kenji explained.

"And we have work to do." Kunikida added.

"We have time for work later. Lets train!" She looked up at the tall man with her lips pursed and eyes hopeful.

Kunikida tensed and looked away not wanting to give in before sighing. "Fine"

"Alright let's go!" She got up from her seat. "Go where?" Atsushi asked confused. "To the training gym of course."

Atsushi was confused, not knowing they had a training gym. "Common rookie! Second floor, lets go!" Everyone went to the second floor.

Atsushi and Kiyoka had never been here. There were tatami mats everywhere, some weights, a combat ring, a parcours course and a couch. Which Ranpo took the pleasure of sitting on.

"Welcome to the agency's training room!" Aika skipped into the room. Junichiro went to train with Kunikida, Kenji went to train with Yosano.

"Atsushi, since you turn into a tiger, I'm surprised you haven't practiced your one to one combat. Come with me!" Aika grabbed the boys arm and dragged him into the ring. "Warm up!" She exclaimed.

Atsushi was hesitant, he didn't know what Aika was capable of... but he believed in his own skills.

"Alright! No special abilities I'm telling you right now." Aika got into a fighting stance. Dazai went to the side of the ring and just watched with a smirk.

Atsushi got ready, he threw a punch towards Aika who gracefully dodged it. He tried to kick, he tried to make her trip, he tried to knock her down. He couldn't. She just kept avoiding his attacks. Aika smirked "I'm having fun Dazai, this rookie knows how to fight!" She exclaimed looking towards the tall man. Atsushi took this opportunity and tried to attack her from the back, she dodged once again. The boy was getting completely defeated, and she hadn't even tried to attack him.

"You're not going to fight back?" Atsushi asked out of breath. "Ohhh, you want me to fight back? Alright!" Aika exclaimed actually getting ready to fight.

"You shouldn't have said that!" Ranpo warned, slacking off and eating snacks while being entertained by all the fights.

Aika and Atsushi got into their fighting stances once again. Atsushi tried to punch her. Aika grabbed his wrist, pulled him towards her, grabbed his nape and forced him down until his face was on the floor and she was victorious.

"Woohoo! 1 to 0!" She got up and got ready. "Round 2?"

Her and Atsushi kept fighting, Atsushi not being able to win a single spar. By the end, the poor boy was lying on the floor exhausted, basically dying.

"I told you!" Ranpo said from afar.

"Man, that was fun." Aika said standing next to Dazai. "Are you next?" The man smirked.

"You really want to?" He repeated and she nodded. "Okay!" He grunted and got into the ring.

"Good luck!" Atsushi said to Dazai, patting his shoulder while getting out of the ring.

Both Dazai and Aika stood there, not even in a fighting stance. "No abilities." Dazai said. "That wouldn't matter." Aika reminded and Dazai nodded with a smirk. They took a moment to look at each other, before-

"Little girl!"

"Asshole."

Both said in unison while charging. Aika threw a punch, Dazai dodged. Dazai kicked, Aika dodged. Aika tripped the man. Dazai tried to counter, but the girl flew out of his reach. Dazai got back up and the sparing continued until-

"Shit!" Aika yelled getting dragged to the floor.

Dazai was victorious.

"Yayyyyy!" Dazai exclaimed.

Atsushi was stunned. Aika got up and brushed herself off, like nothing happened. Dazai wrapped his arm around the younger girl and smiled proudly. "I see you've learnt quite a bit in the two years you were away." He stated, Aika giggled.

....
Armed detective agency
(October 5th)

Today, Aika had a meeting with president. She told him everything she knows about the head of the drug selling groupe. With all that information, president, Dazai and Aika were able to construct a plan to stop the organisation.

Later that day, as everyone left the office for the night. Aika was feeling overwhelmed, so she went to the training room and worked on her technique. Kunikida stayed at the office to make sure she wouldn't overwork herself and that she made it back okay.

He was doing research in the office, looking into some files of drug history kenji found. He was specifically looking into this one drug lord, there was an article about him that made Kunikida tense up. He sent Dazai the document and then called him.

"Hello?" Dazai answered seeming annoyed.

"Dazai, I just sent you an article. Take a look at it will y'a." Kunikida said as Dazai whined through the phone, and sat at his home desk.

He pulled up the file and scanned it. It was made in 2010. The title was called : Siblings tested on by scientist in Yamaguchi.

Dazai's jaw dropped, he put on his coat and ran out of the house. "Kunikida I'm coming to the office now-" he hung up.

When he got to the agency, Kunikida was still at his desk reading the article. "Where's Aika?" Dazai asked out of breath.

"In the training room why?"

Dazai went down stairs and got Aika. He brought her back to the office. Both Aika and Kunikida were confused. Dazai pushed Kunikida off his desk and turned the screen towards Aika. "Look." He said. The girl read over the title and right away, her expression changed.

"This was made in 2010." Dazai added. Aika stepped away from the screen and started pacing with her hand scratching at her markings.

"What's going on?" Kunikida asked worried. Aika looked at Dazai. "Can you?"

Dazai nodded. He turned towards the worried male and sighed. "Aika is one of the siblings the article is talking about." Kunikida's eyes went wide.

"What?" He let out of disbelief. He turned his head towards Aika who was staring at her shoes. Her fingers fiddled together anxiously.

She gulped then looked up. "We're having a meeting tomorrow, ill explain more then... when everyone is there." She ran a hand through her messy red hair.
