Izaya Orihara finally does the one thing that nobody expects, he leaves. But why? Well, nobody cared enough to look, especially when he was finally out of their lives. But, a day will come where they meet again, and that will be the day when they will learn just how fragile the great Orihara Izaya truly is.

After his final fight against Shizuo, Izaya has fallen apart. In a hospital, all alone, he wonders if he has anything to live for... Perhaps it would be better to just die. But all of a sudden, there's a light, a light in the darkness, a light that gives him a reason to live, a light that he would do anything for. This is the story of Orihara Izaya's change of heart.

Izaya's life is suddenly torn apart after he nearly succumbs to a deadly illness, losing himself in the process. Unable to remain an informant broker, he flees Ikebukuro, hoping to fix what he had so mercilessly destroyed. He fills in the cracks his past left with something even better. What happens when someone tries to destroy what is still not fixed? IN REWRITE!

Ikebukuro returned to its natural chaos once Izaya disappeared...except he didn't. Izaya felt regret and a need for redemption. Earning a new title; Voiceless Illusion, he had set himself with the duty to protect Ikebukuro even if it costs him everything.
