Notes: Here comes the epilogue! This marks the end of the line but expect more Charmed fics from me in the future! – Xtreme Slayer

San Francisco

"Thank you guys so much for what you did." Karen said as she began to hug both Piper, Phoebe and Paige. From the short time that they have been together, they helped her in destroying an evil that plagued her, and become three of the greatest friends she ever had in a while. Right after they vanquished the curse and Kayako, they spent two days celebrating and doing simple things such as watching movies and eating meals prepared excellently by Piper. She even got to liking Piper and Leo's baby Wyatt, and their futuristic Whitelighter Chris.

"It was our pleasure." Phoebe told her as she gave her an award winning smile. She also had come to deeply like Karen. Aside from helping her with the evil in Japan, she had grown fond of her and wished her nothing but the best in her future. Karen stood out from other innocents because of…well Phoebe could not really explain; Karen just did.

"We really like you Karen, and we hope that you move on to the right direction in you're life now that you're un-cursed. Just have faith." Piper said as she placed a hand on her shoulder.

"I understand. Things will be rough without Doug, but I'll survive." Karen said as she also flashed a smile at the sisters.

"I have a feeling you will. Just know that you have three magical, demon ass-kicking, Halliwell sisters in San Francisco should you ever need help." Paige said as she made the whole room burst into chuckles.

"Again, I thank you all." Karen said as she looked at the three. Turning to Leo, she told him "Okay Leo, I'm ready now."

Leo held onto Karen and began to orb out in another swirl of glittering bright and brilliant lights. In thin air, the two were gone, and all that was left was the three Charmed sisters.

"So, what do we now?" Paige asked.

"Lemme see, Wyatt is asleep, Chris is out, Paige is free, and Phoebe has the day off. Why do I feel like this is so familiar?" Piper asked as she began to laugh.

"Hey, we never finished watching The Ring." Phoebe said aloud as her sisters looked at each other.

"I'll make the popcorn!" Paige yelled running to the kitchen.

"I'll set up the DVD!" Phoebe yelled running to the living room.

"I'll…I'll go sit down." Piper said as she walked over to the couch, laughing at her sisters as they did their tasks.

Tokyo

Leo had left Karen moments earlier, and wished her good luck. Saying that she would go back to her apartment, Karen lied and headed for further downtown Tokyo. Mustering up enough courage, Karen wanted to go and check out the house once and for all. Tokyo was still cloudy, but the rain and thunder had stopped. Karen was a stronger person now, and amidst the tiny Japanese people that she walked along the streets with, she felt powerful. It was all thanks to the Halliwell sisters, the sisters whom she would never forget.

After about ten minutes, Karen made it to the sight of the house; or at least what was the house. It was completely destroyed and all that was left was broken pieces of lumber, fallen debris, and a scent that Karen knew all too well; a mixed scent of death. Karen could not help but feel a chill that was coming up her spine, but it was not from the weather, it was from the vacant area that they were in. No tears came down her face, and Karen straightened up.

"Finally, this grudge is over. Kayako's spirit is free and I can continue my life. Good riddance." Karen said as she began to briskly walk away from the sight of the fallen home that had brought her much misery in the little time she was there. Just as Karen walked away, thunder began to sound, but she paid no attention to it; this whole chapter in her life was over, and she was glad for it to finally end.
