Author's Note: This is the final chapter. I added a little more so it would be a little bit longer.

Not long after being freed from their dragons, Kary and Elly were heading home.

It was bittersweet for the guys as the girls stood at the departing gate. Elly had gone with Kurama to talk. Yomi and Mukuro had gone back to their own homes with Yomi barely escaping with his entire body intact. They had made sure the twins were okay before deciding they needed to handle things in their own world. Yomi had made sure Kary knew he would be back for her, much to Hiei and Kurama's annoyance.

Hiei and Kary had spent as little time together as possible to lessen the blow of her living. After being together for six weeks, it was hard for Hiei to let go. He wasn't going to admit it but Kurama knew he had formed a strong bond with the girl and probably had done something he hadn't thought possible.

Kary called Elly back over. Their plane was about to board. With hugs to everyone who would accept them, they turned and disappeared through the gate. After the others had headed towards the airport entrance, Kurama looked at Hiei who was staring out the full length window.

"You okay?"

"I'm fine." Hiei replied. He sighed and turned away from the window. "You were right. She would be leaving."

"Yeah. I hate it when that happens."

Hiei frowned at his friend. "At least the dragons are safe and the population will be reorganized."

"Yes, maybe we have time for a little break."

"Hn."

As they turned away from the windows and walked to their friends, Valkarie and Selphina appeared. They smiled and looked at each other. They turned to the plane as it left the tarmac. They would watch over the twins until their dying day.
