Authors: aiwritingfic and readerofasaph
Characters: Tezuka Kunimitsu, Ohtori Choutarou, ensemble
Wordcount/Rating: 1000+ words / G
Spoilers/Warnings: Douglas Adams meets fantasy. Don't say we didn't warn you.
Summary: Ohtori updates Tezuka on the status of the search.
From: Ohtori Choutarou, Agency for Inter-dimensional Missions, Box 42, The Crossroads
To: Tezuka Kunimitsu, Office of the Royal Advisory, The Kingdom of Everblue, Planet Earth, Universe #19
Tezuka-san,
It has been twenty days since my last update. Since then, our field operatives have successfully located nine of the 52 shortlisted items. Six of these were assessed on location and determined not to be the Universe #19 Everblue Inheritance Ring. The remaining three have been sent to our Magical Artifacts Department for further analysis.
I have attached the field reports for your information. One of our operatives, Akutugawa Jirou is currently in unconscious statis and has yet to file a report; however, a quick DreamScan of his subconscious has conclusively determined the results of his mission and excluded Universe #19 (29469) from the scope of our search.
Regards
Ohtori Choutarou

Field Operative No.(s): #0229, #1128
Name(s): Fuji Syuusuke, Kikumaru Eiji
Date(s) of Mission: The Third Age. The 317th Year. Spring. The Second Month. Commenced on the eighth day and completed on the ninth.
Date Filed: 09/02/Spring/317/3A
Location: Mordor, Section 29467, Universe #28
Mission Objectives: Obtain the Three Rings of Power located in the Cave of Moribund Fear and assess for Properties of Dimensionality
Mission Outcome: Successful.
Details: Mount Doom successfully scaled with the help of Agent #1128's acrobatic skills. Three Ringwraiths temporarily disabled with the properties of Swallow Return. Entrance to the Cave of Moribund Fear breached with the White Whale Technique. Three Rings of Power located under Eye and unfortunately were determined to lack Dimensional properties. Three Ringwraiths re-disabled in a slightly less temporary manner with the Dragonfly Return after they attempted to interrupt the testing processes. Detailed evaluation enclosed.
Additional notes: Backup requested from the Maintenance Department--there were some unavoidable inter-dimensional interferences involving three left-handed tennis players from Greenspring and a monk from Rising Seas. Please bring anti-memory-mixing kit and un-splinching equipment for Ringwraiths and Pax-humanus humanoids.
Field Operative No(s): #0929
Name(s): Shishido Ryou
Date(s) of Mission: The Tetrad of Hiel, in the 589th year of the Founding
Date Filed: The Heptad of Hiel, the same year
Location: The Desert of Forever, Section 29468, Universe #3
Mission objectives: Infiltrate the Palace of Ice and obtain the Ring of Mysteries, to be dispatched to the Magical Artefacts Department for further evaluation.
Mission status: Successful Sort of.
Details: Spent three days lost trekking across the Desert of Forever. Scaled palace walls after much difficulty and possible frostbite. My presence was discovered after an ice sculpture of High Mage Tezuka Kunimitsu was shattered by accident due to unforseeable circumstances. Forced to have tea with the Emperor of Ice, who offered the Agency a temporary loan under certain conditions. The ring is enclosed.
Additional notes: I know we come from the same home world, Choutarou, but you owe me one. In fact, several. Please return the ring as soon as possible. That stupid Atobe is making me have tea with him every afternoon until I give it back!
Field Operative No(s): #0402 and #0102
Name(s): Akutsu Jin and Dan Taichi
Date(s) of Mission: The age of His Majesty Sakaki Kantarou the Velvet, the year of the seventh Heaven-spring, the month of eight Rainfalls, the tenth day of Thunder.
Date Filed: 10/08/7H-s, SKV-A
Location: Mount Wind, Eastern Hemisphere, Section 29466, Universe #143
Mission objectives: Locate the Tamer's Ring and assess Dimensionality
Mission status: Successful
Details: We visited Tamer Banji in his estate, and he showed us the Tamer's Ring desu. Akutsu-senpai Agent #0854 suspected treachery and broke a wall, behind which we found the real Tamer's Ring. It was confiscated taken for testing, but though it does have the power to sooth Akutsu-senpai Agent #0854 for short periods of time, it was not a Dimensional Artifact desu. Returned Tamer's Ring to Tamer Banji after tests were completed.
Additional notes: Er ... Akutsu-senpai Agent #0854 broke Tamer Banji's wall, but Tamer Banji hasn't complained yet. We thought the Agency should know just in case he does desu.
Field Operative No(s): #1224
Name(s): Echizen Ryoma
Date(s) of Mission: 26th May 2469 CE
Date Filed: 5th June 2469 CE
Location: Shin Tokyo, Planet Gibson, Section 29467, Universe #1411
Mission objectives: Obtain ruby ring hidden in warehouse of the Ginka interplanetary smugglers. Arrest Ginka members for illegal interdimensional activity.
Mission status: Successful
Details: The object is enclosed. So are the Ginka members.
Field Operative No(s): #0925
Name(s): Kirihara Akaya (Status: trainee; supervised by: Yanagi Renji, #0604)
Date(s) of Mission: 03/16/5789 - 06/16/5789 (post-Apocalypse)
Date Filed: 06/16/5789
Location: Hidden Sea Village, The Five Lands, Section 29467, Universe #380
Mission objectives: Obtain the Secret Treasure of Hidden Sea Village.
Mission status: Sucessful
Details: The jounin protecting the village were thoroughly crushed and tortured interrogated for information regarding the location of the Secret Treasure. There was a slight delay of two days for extra preparation (Supervisor's note: It was necessary to instruct the trainee in the basics of Underwater Breathing no Jutsu, as this appeared to be a gap in his learning.) followed by successful retrieval of the Object. I was disappointed because the ring was blue, not red; however Yanagi-sempai said it had Dimensionality properties, so I am bringing it to the agency for additional evaluation, together with this report.
Additional notes by Supervisor: Advise that the trainee be assigned to a different universe, as he has incurred some animosity from the indigenous population in his current location.
Field Operative No(s): #0302, #0407
Name(s): Kachirou Katou, Katsuo Mizono
Date(s) of Mission: November 19, 2007
Date Filed: November 19, 2007
Location: Japan, Earth, Section 29467, Universe #42
Mission objectives: Determine Dimensionality of the Yamaguchi Ring
Mission status: Successful
Details: Multiple efforts to obtain an interview unsuccessful even after we offered to perform the tests before a witness. Finally resorted to Dokodemo Door borrowed from Agent #1344 (Nobita Nobi)'s robotic cat. The Yamaguchi Ring was determined not to possess any Dimensionality. After testing, the ring was returned anonymously by an insured third party.
Additional Details: Though not a Dimensional Artifact, the Yamaguchi Ring actually holds the Moussaieff Red Diamond; the diamond that was displayed at the Smithsonian in 2003 is an excellent fake. Should we notify the local authorities?
