Summary from now-defunct webpage at http://milestone.luthor.com/comics_detail.asp?ID=93&:

Flashback saves Dogg. Tech-9 starts to act like Masquerade. Kwai decides she can't marry the Dog God and goes to meet the Grey Lady. Masquerade almost kills Dogg and Flashback. We see Demon Fox give Masquerade some more of Tech-9's essence. Dogg gets Brickhouse and Third Rail to help take out Masquerade. The Syndicate returns and a battle royale begins with Demon Fox. Kwai and the Demon Fox finally destroy each other. After Kwai's death the Syndicate decides to break up. We see Wise Son bring an end to the tale of the Blood Syndicate to reporter Rob Chaplik.
