Disclaimer: Um...I hate Anzai's ending. Yeah. So...obviously...
Kurei glanced at Recca and Yanagi. He couldn't help but feel so...envious.
'Kurenai...Jisho...they're gone. They're...truly all gone...' He thought, with a bittersweet feeling laced around it. 'They have gone to heaven...'
"Kurei~~!!" The healer girl pounced on him. Massive sweatdropping occurred. Kurei looked at Recca's popping eyes and dripping nose.
"H...hime..." Recca managed. Yanagi looked up at Kurei, with eyes that...
"It's me, Kurei. It's Kurenai..." She leaned up, and kissed the frozen Kurei's lips.
Half the world died in the explosion that followed.

"I...see..." Kagerou muttered. Yana-er-Jisho grinned. Domon leered at Ya-Jisho. Jisho sighed, with an irritated twitch of the mouth.
"Alright, you see, when Yanagi's soul went back to her body, we also needed a dead body to go in. Of course, it wasn't done consciously..." Jisho in Yanagi's body assured Recca, whose veins seemed about to burst. "Now...Yanagi's body holds three souls; me, Kurenai-san, and Yanagi. Think of her as...schizoprenic."
"MY HIME IS NOT SCHIZOPRENIC, YOU...YOU..." Recca growled angrily, and pointed at the Jisho in Yanagi's body. "YOU ASS!!"
"Re...Recca-kun..." Yanagi's eyes started watering. "You...why...wahh..." She began sniffling. Recca's eyes popped out.
"Hi-HIME!! I, I, I didn't mean you, I meant-Please don't cry! Uh, uh..." Recca started panicking. Yanagi stifled a laugh. Unsuccessfully.
"BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA~~~!!! YOU'RE SUCH AN IDIOT~~~!!" She grasped her stomach and pointed at Recca, laughing until tears came out of her eyes. "You gullible, GULLIBLE idiot!!" Recca's veins popped.
"You BASTARD, Jisho..." He began cracking his knuckles. Jisho did a little 'tsk tsk tsk' wag of his new body's fingers.
"You don't want to hurt your HIME's body, now do you?" He continued laughing as Recca skulked into defeat. Kurei blinked in mild surprise. Well, it was probably a big surprise deep, deep down.
"Ji...Jisho. You..." He lost his words. Jisho looked at him, and walked over.
"Hehe, I'm a good actor, ain't I, Kurei-sama." He kneeled down to the sitting Kurei. Recca wobbled and his nose began dripping. Domon and Fuuko went to catch him.
"Wha...Hanabishi?!" Domon's arms quickly swayed with Recca's movements.
"Guess Recca couldn't take Yanagi's body kneeling to Kurei, hehe," Fuuko smirked. They quickly slapped Recca out of his daze. Eyes were on Jisho in Yanagi's body and Kurei once again. Jisho further bowed to Kurei. Recca began to get used to this.
"Jisho of the Magnetic Swords, at your service!" With a salute, his eyes went blank. This brought a big exclamation mark around the room.
"! J...Jisho..." Kurei grasped Jisho's new body's shoulders and began shaking mildly. "Jisho!" Suddenly, the pupils of the eyes contracted, but with a different light in them, as if the soul had changed. With a small yelp, the new soul wrenched its body out of Kurei's light grasp.
"K-Kurei!" Came the shocked whimper. "What...what..." Recca's eyes popped yet again.
"HIME! You're back!!" He shouted, grinning. Yanagi turned back to him, and broke into a smile.
"Recca-kun!" She ran towards him, and fully impacted herself against his chest. "Recca-kun, I thought...I'd never..." She began sniffling. Recca's eyes softened, and patted her head gently. While Recca reassured her the way he always seemed to, the door burst open. All eyes immediately shot to the door. It was...
"Hehe, Kurei-han, got ya a guest~!"
"JOKER?!" Koganei yelped. He started sputtering. "I...what, you..." Joker flashed him one of his fangy grins.
"Black hole got me to Kurei's mansion, and that's all that's worth mentioning now." Joker presented his guest in. A small intake of breath was heard from Kurei, everybody always hears if Kurei does something. The woman smiled her aged smile. Kurei opened his mouth to greet her, but for the sake of keeping up appearances, and reduced explanation, he smartly shut his mouth. Instead she said,
"Kurei, my child. How I wanted to see you...I thought you had gone away forever!" Relief was obviously spreading across her face like sunlight. Kurei would have normally been pleased with the comment deep, deep down. But not now. Not with those stupid people behind him...
"A...abuh...buh..." Recca sputtered. So did everyone else except Mikagami, who was just disturbed. Recca continued with: "M-MOTHER?!!" Deep down in Kurei's heart, he felt the long night ahead...
