* {{StephenKing}}: after the seven children have successfully defeated ''It'' for the first time, all seven of them never meet again -- not even when they relive history 28 years later.

* Also after [[spoiler:Shepard's death]] in between one and two. Joker says that they all just...drifted apart.

A RagtagBunchOfMisfits is pulled together on emergency to [[TheQuest fulfill some grand goal]]. [[WeDoTheImpossible They succeed.]] And then realize that they are not exactly held together by much anymore, and the team falls apart, with each member now free to pursue their personal endeavors.

* Riot Force 6 in ''MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha [=StrikerS=]'', which unites pretty much every top combat mage in the [[TheFederation TSAB]], is disbanded after the JS Incident is taken care of and the rookies' training is complete.

** Heck, they don't even seem to write or call, as no one knew Goku and ChiChi had a 4 year old son until the beginning of the Saiyan Saga.

* While not really a specific team or organization, this is how the cast of DragonBall treat each other. In between story arcs, they don't visit each other at all. Even when several years pass, they don't even drop in to say "hi" until the next tournament starts or the next baddie shows up.

* SamuraiChamploo ends with Fuu, Mugen, and Jin going their separate ways.

** It was as much a case of The Enemy of My Enemy as anything else.

* The TropeNamer, of course, is ''LordOfTheRings''. After the events of the trilogy, the Ring is destroyed, and the Fellowship that was formed goes their separate ways, along with their allies. Aragorn rules Gondor as King Elessar with Arwen as his wife, Faramir and Eowyn get hitched in Rohan, the four Hobbits return to and take back the Shire from Saruman and Grima Wormtongue, and then Frodo and Bilbo leave with Gandalf, Gimli and the Elves for the Undying Lands.
** Worth noting, however, that the [[BreakingTheFellowship Fellowship of the Ring was broken]] long before that, at the end of the Book II (of six), and never really came together again (even on Aragorn's crowning, Boromir was obviously missing).

[[folder:Real Life]]
* World War II. The allies were united against a common ObviouslyEvil villain, the Nazis. When the Nazis were defeated, each of them pursued their own interests and sometimes turned on each other during the ColdWar. Shows that sometimes a [[BigBad great evil]] is necessary to make the good guys act good.
** They never really broke apart, though; instead they went from TheAlliance to TheFederation (the United Nations).
