Ariel was in Dumah's apartment, looking at a long box that Dumah has brought home. A week had passed since she got herself suspended.

"Are you ready to see the weapon that will end the bloodline of the Togamis?" Dumah grinned.

"I do like surprises," Ariel giggled.

Dumah opened the box, and Ariel was left stunned when she saw a sword.

"She's a beauty, isn't she?" Dumah smiled. He picked up the sword and done a pose that one of his characters did.

"Lame," Ariel said, rolling her eyes.

"What?" Dumah said, hurt.

"The pose, not the sword," Ariel smile.

"Oh," Dumah mumbled. "Well, I thought I was being cool." He handed the sword to Ariel, and she began to check it out.

"Impressive," Ariel said as she began to swing the sword. "I'm looking forward to seeing Togami's head get cut off with this sword."

"Soon," Dumah said warmly. "So have you had any luck catching that Nephilim?"

Ariel began to chuckle. "Maybe, I can't give away all of my intel."

Dumah began to smile. "You're one sneaky detective, aren't you?"

"That I am," she replied, smiling.

"So how are you going to kill Asahina? I never did ask you that," Dumah said.

"I'm going to kill her with the very gun that Togami give me to stop you," Ariel smirked. "It's going to be ironic," she chuckled. "Togami has signed his own girlfriend's death sentence."

Ariel put the sword back in the box. Dumah put the lid back on the box, and he picked it up and took it into his room.

The pair could hear someone knocking on the front door.

Dumah poked his head into the living room. "Stay there and be ready to change."

Ariel nodded.

Dumah walked to the front door and opened it to see Mukuro on the other side.

"May I come in?" Mukuro said. "I have updates from work."

Dumah nodded, and Mukuro walked in as the door closed behind her.

"Hina is trying to convince Togami that Kirigiri is a Nephilim," Mukuro said.

"Oh, really?" Dumah said, surprised. "Has Togami been convinced?"

"No, not fully at least."

"Why is that?"

"Because Kirigiri is the best detective he has. It would be a hammer blow for him, the police force and the streets if he believed that she was a Nephilim."

"How cute," Dumah said sarcastically. "Togami is hoping that my dear cousin isn't a Nephilim. So it can keep himself looking good."

"What do you mean?" Mukuro asked.

"Togami can go to his bosses with no fear due to the fact that Ariel is keeping the streets clean. But take her off the force and Togami will be sweating that he has lost his best worker. But none is going to matter any longer. Ariel and I are stepping up, and we will end this game soon."

Mukuro felt a cold chill going down her spine.

"Once Togami and Asahina are dealt with. Then our deal is completed, and you are free," Dumah said. "We will still keep in contact, but not as much as you and Ariel will be."

"What do you mean by that?" Mukuro said, scared.

Dumah smirked. "You will need to wait and find out."

Mukuro didn't like the sound of that at all.

"You can relax," Dumah said calmly. "You and your sister's lives are not on the table after Togami's death. Rather a chance to ensure peace and safety on the streets of Japan."

Mukuro was confused. "Care to explain even a tiny little bit?"

"Oh my god, are you stupid or something Mukuro!" Said a female voice coming from Dumah's living room.

"Wait I know that voice," Mukuro said stunned. "Junko, is that you?"

Junko walked out of the living room, and she gives her sister the peace sign. "Of course it's me, Mukuro."

"What a-are you doing h-here?" Mukuro said nervously.

"I'm here to talk to Dumah about a few things. But you dear sister, you have been a sneaky girl, haven't you?" Junko giggled. "You're planning to have your boss and his girlfriend killed. I never knew you had it in you Mukuro."

"It's to protect u-us!" Mukuro mumbled. "I'm not a killer, it's Dumah and his cousin that going to kill the pair."

"Right?" Junko replied, folding her arms and tilted her head slightly. "What does this have to do with us?"

"Dumah said he is going to reshape Japan into his liking and he hasn't said anything else. So I have no idea what his plans for us are. It might be good, it might be bad. I really don't know. My first thought was to ensure that we were safe in Dumah's new era of Japan."

"I know," Junko giggled. "He has told me everything!"

"What?!" Mukuro said, shocked.

"Enoshima that is enough!" Dumah said firmly.

"What the fuck!" Mukuro said angerly. "Why are you keeping me in the dark but you tell my sister everything!"

"I suggest you watch your tone," Dumah said darkly. "Our deal is still in place, and your sister is right here."

In a fit of anger, Mukuro rushed and pinned Dumah against the wall.

"If you lay a single finger on my sister, I will kill you myself!" Mukuro said firmly.

"Oh Ikusaba, you are one stupid woman," Junko said, shaking her head. She grabbed Mukuro's left shoulder and spun the latter around. Junko grabbed Mukuro by the throat and lifted her up with ease.

Mukuro watched Junko slowly turn into Ariel.

"Who do you think you are? Pinning Dumah into a wall?" Ariel said, slightly annoyed. "Now, what do you say?"

"So…sorry," Mukuro said weakly.

"Good," Ariel said calmly. "Know your place. I do not wish for you to be my first ever kill."

Ariel slowly placed Mukuro back on the ground and released her grip. Mukuro began to breathe slowly while holding her neck. She couldn't believe she failed to notice it wasn't her sister that she was talking to. Mukuro should have known straight away it was Ariel. When Ariel called her Mukuro. Junko always called her Muku.

"Maybe I should tell my father that you pinned me against a wall," Dumah said with a small grin.

Mukuro's eyes lit up in horror, and she dropped to her knees and begged. "Please, don't I'm sorry Dumah forgive me for my recklessness."

"If you leave my apartment right now, you are forgiven," Dumah said.

Mukuro shot up and quickly headed for the door. She opened the door and promptly ran off without closing the door behind her.

"Well that was fun, wasn't it?" Ariel giggled.

"Yes, it was," Dumah replied as he walked over to the door and closed it. "I can see Kaede shaking her head at us."

"Don't forget about our mothers as well," Ariel sighed. "Once Togami and Hina are dead. Then we will never need to think about killing ever again. I can move on my with life, and you can move on with yours. As we work closely together to ensure safety for Japan."

"For children and Nephilim alike," Dumah smiled.
