The sword is far too important to just leave there. Kira had just said earlier that she lost it again. That could be a lie, and she really did kill that guy and knows it, or she could've lost it because it was stolen. But I can't see the Kitsune part of her leaving it if it took control and did that.

Another possibility is that the body simply wasn't there. There was an awful lot of hallucinating in this chapter. It's possible that's what happened with Melissa too. But that seems to not quite fit, since this event seemed to be at least a little later than the rest of them.
