When Celty dropped Melissa off the girl moved quickly, getting her clothing from the apartment and leaving a note for Cathy, stating she'd be gone a while but Izaya didn't have her. Quickly the woman moved, hopping on her own motorcycle and driving off, her eyes dark. She knew what Izaya had done and knew it was only a matter of time before the demons came after to her to try and take her. She had to get away from the others quickly.

Izaya sensed it almost immediately; the sudden spike of demons in the area, the Slasher was nearby as well. He hummed, frowning. This was going to be a long night, with a lot of fights.

Melissa drove until she reached the park, stopping her bike she hopped off, blinking she could see Shizuo. She walked over briskly, said dyed blonde looking over at her and blinking, noting the serious look she had. He hung his head.

"Sorry about hitting-" But he was cut off

"Don't worry about it, I'm fine." She said, moving and standing beside him. "That's not why I'm here."

"Then why?" He asked, blinking when they both heard multiple footsteps.

"To help with this." She said, looking around as glowing red eyes began to appear, followed my people, holding knives. Slasher victims. "This Shizuo is the Slasher." She said, the people walking over.

"Join us." They chorus. "We love you. Mother loves you." They said, holding their knives, their Saika's. And then they attacked. Melissa fought easily, avoiding and keeping Saika holders away from her. Shizuo beat them off with street signs. After a bit Celty rode up with her scythe and joined the battle, giving Shizuo gloves. She went to give some to Melissa who shook her head calmly, punching on girl in the face and beating another man off. They kept telling her they loved her, that mother would love her.

She grinned, fighting them off, when one girl rushed her. She spun to pushed the girl back but the girl ended up stabbing her through the gut. Melissa arched, making a face as they stilled… before she smirked down at the girl, whose eyes had gotten wide.

"Join us! Join us!" The girl screamed. Melissa laughed, ripping the knife from her stomach as it healed instantly.

"No can do babe." She sang, taking the knife. "Now if you'll excuse me." She said, spinning around and stabbing a man in the skull. Shizuo and Celty were in shock as the man screeched, and more came out, their eyes dark red… but not glowing.

"Melissa Hirogatchi." One man said, grinning widely. "You've been summoned."

"By whom?" She asked, gripping the knife as Celty and Shizuo fought off the Saika people.

"By the Fire King himself." The men said. "To breed." Melissa snarled.

"I think not." She said, shooting forward and attacking the men who dodged nimbly. The group and Melissa were moving with perfect precision. Melissa killed two of the men, easily dodging the others. It wasn't long before the Saika people snapped out of it and fled the fighting scene, leaving Celty and Shizuo to watch in shock as the girl in the mask and the dress fought.

"Come with us by order of the Fire King of hell!" One shouted.

"Never! I will not be a breeder for anyone! Demon King or not!" Melissa shouted, killing the man her eyes glowing. She stopped, throwing the knife aside as she tilted her head side to side, before grinning and raising her hands. Souls of the Damned rose up from the ground their masked heads leaned to the side as they stared at the demons before them. Before they shot forward and attacked.

Shizuo, Celty and the observing Izaya could only watch in shock and awe as the demons screeched in agony, the souls under her command and feeding off her power, over powering the demons, killing them and tearing them limb for limb until they were nothing but flecks of flesh and blood in the grass. This was why demon's wished to mate with her. She grinned wickedly, her eyes glowing. The souls of the damned sank back into Hell as she picked up her bag, beginning to take out her jewelry. She had to change, she was all bloody and her dress torn.

She hopped on her bike, leaving the stunned pair of fighters.

"What… were those?" Shizuo whispered, his eyes wide in shock. The sickly pale fleshed, masked, and beaten human looking beasts where… so horrifying... and strong. Celty stuck her phone in Shizuo's face.

"I-I think those were… Souls of the Damned… risen from Hell." Shizuo blinked.

"What the fuck… is up with that chick…"

The two stood there in shock, Shizuo frowning deeply. Izaya on the other hand, stood on the street, his hands in his coat pockets as he frowned. Just as he thought. He hummed, frowning as he walked down the street.

"You wanted a war that would wake Celty's sleeping head did you not?" A familiar voice asked. Izaya looked up, seeing a familiar blue and black haired figure on a rooftop above him. "I gave you a war that would awaken her head." She said her blue eyes half-lidded. She had changed outfits once more. She now wore a strapless purple and black corset top with an attached skirt, a thin spider web poncho with bats on the end of it, she wore a Victorian era black top hat that sat on the side of her head with a purple ribbon, black fingerless gloves with a purple ribbon lace, purple and black striped socks that went to her mid-thigh, stiletto black boots that went just over her knee. She had a purple and black masquerade ball mask on, the left side purple, the right side black with a butterfly wing on the right side. Her eyes had purple and black makeup in the form of a spider web on her eyes, her lips were black and her nails were now a silvery black.

"Indeed you did." He said, his eyes half-lidded. "Come back with me."

"Will you hand me over to your father?"

"No."

"Very well." She hopped down and stood beside him, before they turned and walked towards the train station.

Melissa did indeed start a war, a very large, and messy war.
