Narrated by Mayham66
This episode kicks off right after the last one. After returning from their fight with the Solar Monster and the Sidereal Monster, aka Havoc's daughter, they come back to headquarters and talk to Nuran, and then suddenly realize something....what is with the line of women going out the door? The group looks to Traveler and for once, it really was his doing. While the others where fighting the duo, Traveler had been ordered to go through the pile of applications and had found only the females applicants were qualified.
Nuran then informed the agents that they were to help Traveler with the interviews. Hino took this chance to inform Nuran that he had an appointment he couldn't miss and twisted fate around to make it so. Nuran excused Hino and then suggested to the other agents they get started. So a long day of interviews took place, while Hino made it to his appointment of napping on a tree branch outside of headquarters. At the end of the day, the office was full of bodies once again....all of them female except a rare few exceptions and a new branch was born, as Nuran found a request from Hino in his paperwork to make an Intelligence Branch. This branch to be headed by Hino with his son and two other assistants being the office personal.
A year passed without too much fuss, the operatives had to take care of a few more things than normal, but nothing terribly hard. Havoc tried to warm himself up to his daughter, but their family activities always ended up being, Let's Try to Beat Up Daddy, but Fail Miserably Due to Lack of Essence. Hino's wife became pregnant again, this time it looks to be a daughter, much to the pleasure of Lixa. Traveler got with every female in the office with the exception of Ms. Obol, his daughter, and a few other holdouts. Wu-Go-Ma-Xa developed somewhat of a fascination for Qienzhiahi, who was still staying at Havoc's home, but had so far done nothing about it. The trainees turned into real Operatives, as they were awarded certifications by their respective Divisions, after defusing a war that was threatening to unravel the west. They were given the mission due to the insistence of Wu-Go-Ma-Xa.
Then we arrived at the new present, a regular night like any other, except Wu-Go-Ma-Xa had plans. He enlisted the help of Hino and the two stalked headquarters and waited for a moment. It came when Traveler came up to Ms. Obol and turned in some paperwork and made his usual, not ever successful flirting with Ms. Obol. Wu-Go then took this chance and had his own spirit enter Ms. Obol's body. Traveler was surprised to find that Ms. Obol responded, quite physically, by grabbing his arm and his leg and reaching up for a kiss. Hino drained away Ms. Obol's willpower, which helped Wu-Go keep control, but he still lost it after a few seconds and took that chance to use Avoidance Kata....so he was in fact never there, Hino sickened and wondering why he would help Traveler win over Ms. Obol in this way, skulks out in the shadows. Traveler, unable to resist himself, takes advantage of Ms. Obol's strange behavior. He is able to make another notch on his belt, or whatever he does and by the next morning the entire office knows of this encounter. Traveler has also gotten with every women in the office that would consent to it.
Wu-Go deciding that he needs to mess with Havoc asks Hino if he would help him, figuring it can't be worse then helping Traveler, he agrees. It only takes a few moments for that to dissolve, as Havoc's Sifu is in Yu-Shan and would kick Wu-Go out rather quickly. He then decides to mess with Qienzhiahi and heads to Havoc's dojo. Havoc a little annoyed at getting woken up at this now-late hour calls for Qienzhiahi, after being informed of Wu-Go's need to speak to her. He then activates his Games of Divinity Form and Hino steals her Willpower. She becomes addicted to the sight of the form upon first sight...as does Havoc. Hino and Havoc's daughter, who comes to see what the fuss is all about, aren't affected. They talked and Wu-Go ended up pissing off Qienzhiahi, so he wisely ran and Hino followed. He again, ended up using Avoidance Kata, so she actually just decided to take a walk after leaving Havoc's and Hino followed to make sure she didn't cause any trouble with the locals.
The next day, all the agents except Havoc are at the office... Havoc is at his dojo and decides to try and finally win over his daughter. She sat by herself for a while and finally after regaining her esence she gets up and her stance changes, to one that Havoc knows well.... the Form of the Charcoal March of Spiders. Havoc could only watch in horror as she started to glow with essence as she powered up more charms. She flies at Havoc, whose hands glow with essence as he blocks each of her blows. "Why?" he asks of her. Without stopping her assault she answers in a cold, hateful voice, "You killed my mother." Havoc was confused, as she was talking about events that he couldn't remember. At this point the three other agents arrive, as Wu-Go had sensed the fight and used Traveler's powers to get there quickly. Hino uses his powers to steal away some of her fighting ability and to finally slow her down, while Havoc uses his powers to get up a Persistent Defense. Then Traveler speaks, using essence to twist the words so that she couldn't possibly believe it and says, "The one to attack is Havoc." Taken aback for a moment, she snarls, "Then who should I attack? Who killed my mother?" Hino thinking back to when he read Mebula Dul's file, and the others using different sources, all speak in unison (with the exception of Traveler), "Chejop Kejak." So she flew through the wall and into the sky, probably to find Chejop Kejak, who most likely could stop her onslaught, though no word has reached the agents yet.
The next few days are quiet, and they wonder what will happen next. At least Traveler, Wu-Go, and Hino are wondering. Havoc disappeared the morning 2 days after the event and Nuran won't let them waste time in following him.

Comments
It is worth noting that while this summary implies terrible, squicky shit, this is a subjective reading and that no actual belt-notching was accomplished. (I had forgotten this fact in the ensuing years and was rather alarmed when rereading this recently.) ~ G
