It wasn't long before the soldiers attacking the bakery were either dead, unconscious or dying.  Melody too had taken her share of lives and devoured them as she eventually returned to her normal form and walked slowly over to Kaori.<br/><br/>'I did warn you to be careful of these soldiers...this is only a quarter of them.'

'Felicia will grow up as a serpent girl...though her physical growth will be much quicker than your other children...be a good mother to her and she will protect your family well.  It is my desire to stop all this pointless destruction though.  It will have no place in my world and when the time comes...I will show you that utopia I wish to bring about.'  She explained to Kaori.<br/><br/>"Big sister, Kaori..."  Melody spoke softly as she closed her eyes and fell asleep next to her amidst the rubble, exhausted from all the fighting.
