((Rin's POV))

It all happened so quickly.

Igor fell to the ground, and the knife flew out of his hands. I caught a glimpse of purple before I realized who it was.

Izumo.

"Sarah, are you alright?!" She gasped as she helped her up.

Igor was being pinned down to the ground by the group of exorcists. Shima was looking at him, pointing a finger and screaming in victory.

"YEAH!!! YOU LIKE THAT?! THAT'S WHAT YOU GET! YOU JUST GOT SHIMA TACKLED!"

Em looked surprised now standing next to me. Izumo and Sarah were making their way towards us.

"What just happened?" I asked asked.

"Well whatever happened, it's all over now," Em said. "Igor isn't getting away this time."

Igor was now being dragged away by the group of exorcists. One thing I did know was that he was going to go to jail for a long time.

He was screaming some rude insults, but I couldn't hear a word that he was saying when he was shoved into a cop car.

"Well guys, I think that this is the end," Sarah said as she stood next to Izumo.

"It was that simple huh? Man, I thought that it was going to be more epic!" Shima frowned.

"No one deserves death in my opinion, but he probably will be put to death over the law.." I mumbled.
"It's a good thing we didn't have to look at another dead body."

"Agreed. I've seen enough for a life time," Izumo shivered.

Together all of us made our way to the healing facility, where our other friends were waiting for the news.

"You're back!" Carter said with a smile.

The first thing I noticed was that he wasn't sitting in bed, but standing with crutches instead.

Em and Sarah automatically hugged their friend, and he managed to awkwardly hug them back.

"So what happened to Igor?" Bon asked. "Did you guys defeat him?"

"Well... Kind of," I said. "He's going to jail as we probably speak."

I was then hugged by Shiemi, her arms wrapped around me as she cried a little.

"Yukio and I were so worried!" She sobbed. "Thank goodness you all made it back safely."

I patted her back a little as she cried, and soon she pulled away. She wiped her tears.

"Sorry..."

"It's fine," I smiled.

When Yukio walked back over I realized that still one side of his glasses was shattered. With all those spare glasses, I thought that he would have them replaced by now.

"Well gang, I guess this is the end?" I asked.

"Yes Rin... We can finally go home."

                •          •          •

When Yukio and I made it back to our dorm, I collapsed on my bed.

"Home sweet home!" I smiled.

Yukio went over to his desk drawer, and replaced his shattered glasses.

"I never thought that all of this would be over so soon," he smiled. "But I'm glad."

I sat up on my bed, confused a little on what he was saying.
