Alas, we have reached the epilogue. A sad, sad day. But all good things must come to an end, I suppose. I only own those same four. And coming soon (in theory) is my new story FATE, which you guys might want to check out (there's a little bit of romance but... well it's complicated. The storyline focuses on Fate trying to get Hieiwith an OCbut the actual romantic side of things won't be overpowering). Wow, that was off-topic.

Report Summary: Reikai Tentaimission. Three missing persons located. One death.

Notes: The death is unrelated to the mission. Master Genkaidecided long ago that after training my next team she would leave this life. It does, however, add a bittersweet taste to the conclusion of this mission.

I sent my four newest employees on a mission to capture a demon. It turned out this demon was actually demons, in the plural. And those demons were Yusuke, Hiei, and Kurama. My new team disappeared for a while, stubbornly disregarding my orders. In the end, they found the three who had been missing for a hundred and fifty three years. These three taught them new techniques. My new team convinced the old team that they weren't living their life to the fullest. Yusuke, Hiei, and Kuramareturned to my employment after a short trip to the glacial country to visit Yukina. In addition, Takeshi, Kasumi, Kiyoshi, and Akikoalso remain in my employ.

As a side effect of this mission two of Kurama'slairs were located and infiltrated. Thousands of artifacts were recovered, some of which were never even reported missing. In addition, the demon Mizuko(class A, snake demon, power hungry, insane) was killed. She was a danger to anyone she came in contact with. I consider her death the elimination of a threat.

Finally, they returned and Genkai told me she wished to end her stay in the human realm. She told me she was ready to move on to her final rest. That she had been ready to move on for a long time. I granted her request.

This is my account based on what I've heard and seen or been told by those involved.

CASE CLOSED
