Although Mariella made her debut in the program, Melanie's didn't come until the Premium Academy's fifth show when she helped Mariella attack Richelle Ross after Mariella successfully defended the X Championship, and laid out Richelle with the Vegas Strip. On the sixth episode, Mariella and Melanie bragged about their actions on the previous show. Casey Matthews came out and berated the two, but this was a set up as Katie Chason turned on Casey and beat him down with a microphone before low blowing him. Katie was then announced as a Fatality Inc member and the trio joined Jimmy Gambino's stable The Gambino Alliance (later renamed The Gambino Family). On the eighth Premium Academy show, Melanie helped Mariella retain the X Championship by hitting Tom Pendergrass in the head with the title belt. They beat him down until Laurie Young made the save. On the next show, Melanie had her first match in the program as she faced Mariah Lopez. She won the match after Morgan Simmons hit Mariah in the head with a tennis racket. Her, Mariella and Morgan beat down Mariah until until Team Lethality members Rachel Robinson, Tom Pendergrass and Laurie Young come out and made the save. On the tenth Premium Academy show, it was supposed to be her and Mariella facing Tom Pendergrass and Laurie Young, but Mariella went missing. Jimmy Gambino took her place, but Fatality Inc lost. The match confirmed that Jimmy Gambino was the fourth member of Fatality Inc. On the next show, she faced Tom with the stipulation that if Tom won, he would get an X Championship match whenever he wanted. Tom defeated Melanie with the Red & Black Tiger Bomb and planted a kiss on her forehead after the match. On episode twelve, Fatality Inc teamed up with Morgan Simmons, Mandy "The Monster", Alisyn and Jenna Martin to face Team Lethality which consisted of Desiree Miles, Mariah Lopez, Rachel Robinson, Bella Brooks-Robinson, Laurie Young and Tom Pendergrass. The match never got going as the faces and heels all brawled with each other all around ringside. On episode fourteen, Fatality Inc faced Tom Pendergrass and TJ Parks (who became a Team Lethality member on the previous episode) but it went to a double disqualification after Mariella kicked Tom in the groin while TJ Parks hit Melanie in the face with a steel chair. After Mariella lost the X Championship to Tom, the Premium Academy turned to Pride Wrestling following the acquisition by Charles Jackson, and Melanie's developmental contract was turned into a Pride Wrestling one. In their first match for Pride, her and Mariella teamed up with Mandy "the Monster" to defeat Team Lethality's Desiree Miles, Tom Pendergrass and TJ Parks. On the third Pride show, Fatality Inc was in the main event against Tom and TJ, but they lost when they got themselves disqualified. At Gang Warfare, her and Mariella were a part of Team Toxic as they went up against Team Lethality, but they lost. After the show, Mariella, Melanie and Katie Chason were kicked out of Toxic after a huge argument between Mariella and Morgan Simmons. They then entered the number one contenders tournament for the PW Tag Team Championship, with Mariella and Melanie getting passed The Dark Cide Mafia by disqualification. Then the next round, they defeated The Bull and Ape Alliance, but were knocked out in round three after TJ Parks and Tom Pendergrass cost them the match.
