It was late at night and all of the residents were asleep in their beds. Kat and Casper slept in their room all curled up near each other. Dr. Harvey had fallen asleep at his desk for the night, He'd been up late looking over figures. Stretch, Fatso and Ghastly all snored away as they slept in the room that they all shared. Then there was good 'ol Stinkie who'd be found fast asleep next to Melle who he held onto. A big smile on his face as he slept, with one arm placed around Melle's tummy. This was one specter who was MORE than excited!! He was going to be a father!! HIM! Melle's belly was bloated out to the size of a watermelon but she couldn't care less. She like everyone else looked forward to this baby being born! So as she slept she bared a smile as well.

This was of course until she'd woken up startled and held her belly. Her eyes twitched as she gripped her tummy a little tighter. "S..Stinkie! Wake up! Wake up...!" She grabbed her husband by the shoulders and shook him gently. "...The BABY!!"

Stinkie yawned and stretched a little as he sat up and flailed his arms. "W-WHAT... WHAT?! What is it...? H-huh..?? Melle...?" Staring curiously at her Stinkie looked from her face to her belly. "HRMN..? Is it...?!" His eyes bulged out of his head as he watched her nod. "IT'S TIME!! IT'S TIME!!" He screamed out as he flew up off the bed. "I'LL GO GET DA OTHERS!!" and with that he dashed out of the room and down the hall. First he popped into Kats room and screamed.

"Oh... CRAP! Go wake Dad!!" Kat shouted at him as she jumped out of bed and started getting dressed.

"ALRIGHT!! I'll finally have a cousin!" Casper laughed and then blushed, flying out of the room as quickly as he could. "S-s-s-sorry Kat.."

When Kat finished she ran down the hall after Stinkie who'd already alerted Stretch, Fatso and Ghastly. "YOU guys go get da car...!! We'll handle da rest of da luggage.." Stretch snickered as he flew down the hall and towards Melle. "HEY Dhere good lookin'! So da times finally come ta have dat kid 'ey...? Well den! Let's not waste any time..!" Flying over to her he picked her up by her arms, while Fatso picked her up by her legs.

"H-HEY! I get it.. let's not WAIST any time!!" He laughed as they flew down the hall with Stretch.

"If we wasn' carryin' precious cargo, I'd SMACK you fer dat... but for now, I'll let dat one slide!" Stretch eyed his brother.

Melle just laughed at the two as she tried to trust them with her in this state. It wasn't until Ghastly carried her on downstairs with them that she actually felt relaxed. The second they were downstairs Stinkie and Dr. Harvey rushed everyone into the Car. From there they floored it towards that hospital. Stinkie sat in the back with Melle, Stretch. Ghastly and Fatso while Kat, Casper and Dr. Harvey were in the front. Kat was in charge fo driving and she was driving like a maniac I'll tell you! Dr. Harvey talked over the phone as he tried to call the Hospital and let them know they were on their way. Meanwhile The Trio and Ghastly TRIED to calm Melle down, but only made it worse.

"H-hang in dere sweety!! Dun die on me...!! " Stinkie sniffed the air, "Oohh... Y'smell GREAT baby!! Heheh...Maybe we should do dis more often! Yer sweatin' like a pig!"

"I dunno if she should keep breathin' dat way! I think she's gonna explode!!" Fatso cringed as he covered his face.

"AUUUGGHH... DAT or she'll THROW UP from it...! NNGGH... If she dun pass out first. BROTHER I KNOW YER EXCITED BUT STOP CUTTIN' DA CHEESE!!" Stretch shouted and grabbed Stinkie by the throat.

"I CAN'T HELP IT!! If I dun let it out, I'M GONNA EXPLODE!!" Stinkie explained

"OH I'LL HELP IT, CAUSE I'M EXPLODIN' NOW!!" Stretch dove at Stinkie in which the two proceeded to fight like cats and dogs.

"YOU BETTER NOT!!" Kat shouted as she looked over her shoulder at the two of them. "I DO NOT WANT HIM STINKING IT UP MORE THAN HE ALREADY HAS!! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW LONG IT TAKES TO GET THAT SMELL OUT?!"

"HONEY!! FOCUS ON THE ROAD!!" Dr. Harvey shouted from off of the phone as the car swerved around.

"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!" Casper screamed as loudly as he could.

Melle, Fatso and Ghastly all just clung to each other as they were scared out of there wits at this point. Everyone who was in the car acted CRAZY!! Finally Melle was so panicked that she roared out, "SHUT THE HELL UP AND FUCKING DRIVE!! IF YOU DON'T GET MY ASS TO THAT HOSPITAL IN ONE PIECE AND IN FIVE MINUTES, I'LL COME BACK AND HAUNT, NOT TO MENTION KICK ALL OF YOUR ASSES! DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!" Snorting she grabbed Stretch and Stinkie and just eyed them down with, what appeared to be red eyes. The two just gulped and melted into some puddles on the floor.

Kat just sat there in the drivers seat quietly. Her eyes were huge as she gulped and just continued on to the Hospital, flooring it just a little more now. Casper was even frightened of Melle at this point. Though he was impressed that she managed to scare Stretch and Stinkie there!

Finally when they arrived the doctors proceeded to take her to the ER. It was hours as Stretch, Fatso, Ghastly, Casper, Dr. Harvey and Kat all proceeded to wait or pace around the waiting room. Stinkie meanwhile watched in an invisible state as Melle birthed their child out. If he'd been visible his color would've changed from Blue to White. It was when he heard the babies cries that he was over joyed! As he watched the baby get cleaned and handed to Melle he quickly floated over beside her and stared down at it.

"Well my dear...! It's A Boy!" The Doctor smiled and washed his hands as Melle held her baby close.

"A BOY!!!!! IT'S A BOY!!! HAHAHA!! OH MELLE I LOVE YA'S!!!" Stinkie hugged onto her tightly and nuzzled her. The doctor who had been in the room screamed and jumped back staring at the Specter. Finally the guy fled out from the room screaming. "GEE Whats 'is problem...? " Stinkie grinned as he gently touched his sons cheek.

"H...here...You can hold him.." Melle smiled tiredly up at Stinkie who happily picked him up.

He sat down on the edge of the bed and chuckled down at his boy. He could hardly believe that it was his. "Myaw... Melle.. He's.. He's gotta little mark dhere! Jus' like you..!" Stinkie laughed and grinned looking at her. "He's gonna look alot like you..."

"Mhmm.. But he has your eyes..." She giggled softly and sighed closing her eyes. It was obvious the poor girl was tired.

"Hehe... Yea'! Though I think he's missin' da rings..." Rubbing noses with the baby Stinkie squeed happily to his son who only seemed to smile back. "DAWWW... He likes me!!"

Stretch and the gang soon found their way into the room and looked on at the family. "Now if dat ain't touchin... Lets have a look at da kid...! So uh...what is it Stinker...?" He blinked as he tried not to get sentimental now.

"It's a BOY!!" looking up Stinkie grinned widely at his brother. "Here...! Hold 'im!!" Without waiting for Stretchs reply, he gently shoved his son into his arms.

"G-GAH!! WH-what am I supposed t'do wit dis thing?! I ...uh.He...He...is kinda cute though..." Stretch smirked and stared down at him as he glanced back to Casper then Melle. "He's gonna be a chip off da 'ol BL-AAACK!" Stretch winced as the baby grabbed his nose. "OW OW OW OW OW!!! LEGGO KID!! LEGGO!!" Everyone started laughing until Stinkie took him and handed him back to Melle.

"VERY FUNNY!! So whattaya gonna call dat twerp anyways?!" Eyes narrowed Stretch grumped and folded his arms.

"Azriel..." Melle cuddled her baby closer.

It would be a few days before they'd allow Melle and the baby to go home. They said something about his blood was odd and that they'd never seen anything like it. Though since the child proved to be healthy they released them. So when it came time Dr. Harvey brought Melle, Azriel and Stinkie all home to Whipstaff. When they arrived home they were greeted by Ghastly, Stretch, Fatso, Casper and Kat. All of who threw confetti and celebrated.

That night with their baby in the crib next to their bed, the couple cuddled close and smiled as they looked to their infanct. Tightly they held hands as their heads touched gently. Stinkie's eyes wandered to the ring that she wore and the ring that he wore. Yes, all this time it had still remained placed upon his finger. NEVER did he take it off and NEVER would he lose it. It was precious. "Hehehe... So We agree den.. I'll take care of da diapers.. an you take care of feedin' him..!" Looking to his wife Stinkie smiled brightly.

"Yes..That sounds like the perfect plan..." Melle snuggled down into the bed and turned off the light. Stinkie just smiled and joined her, his arms wrapping back around her. If she wanted to he'd even make sure that she'd get to sleep as long as she wanted. After all, he was dead and didn't really NEED to sleep... so he'd be able to handle it!
