When L was killed, the man named no successor to his cause, and the rivals were offered the chance to work together to defeat Kira. Mello vehemently declined and left the house.
Five years after L's death, Mello reemerges with a unscrupulous gang working under him to capture Kira. He intends to prove himself by capturing Kira before Near, who has formally taken over L's post. To do this, Mello has no problem with become a criminal himself, eventually kidnapping Raito's sister and killing Police Chief Yagami (Raito's father) as part of his efforts.

Mello sacrifices himself for the cause, and Near is able to catch Raito.
