Well, this is it. The last of GHATGA. The gang has been through a lot in this story, but they've made it through. Today, we're gonna have a time skip to see what everybody's been up to since that summer. And we'll get an awesome moment from the kids. I hope you enjoy!

Epilogue
Eight months later...
Things seemed to be the same after Albert reunited with his childhood friends the past summer. There were some major bumps in the road (such as past incidents and a plot involving child slavery), but in the end, things got better and continued to get better.
Today on a nice March afternoon, Albert found himself walking to the junkyard with Theo, Sondra, Trina, and a brand new member of the Robertson family. Jamal Clifford Robertson was born on January 15th and was a healthy and hefty baby boy. Albert just smiled down at his little son as his wife pushed him in the stroller.
"Mom. Dad. I'm just so excited..." Theo said, "I can't wait to see everyone again."
"Me neither!" Sondra giggled, "It's been so long!"
Albert chuckled, "We know. A few of them should be there already..."
Soon, they reached the junkyard and were already greeted by a few familiar friends. Elvin and Nelson, who were now four, ran up to their friends and gave them great big hugs, "Theo! Sondra!" They cheered in unison.
"Hey, little dudes." Theo greeted, "Good to see you again."
The Simmons, Mush, and the Parkers were there as well as Harry, April, and Fuschia joined their friends.
As for Bill and Cami, they walked up to Albert and Trina, "Hey, hey, hey. How's it going?" Albert asked, then added teasingly, "Dr. Cosby."
Bill smiled. He had gone back to the University of Pennsylvania for his doctorate and was now officially Bill Cosby Ph.d. He had recently finished his first successful surgery and earned enough money to get a bigger house for him, his wife, and the twins. Though, they remained in New Haven.
Russell had moved out finally (Cami was jumping for joy) and had gotten an apartment in Providence so that he could be close to his new job at Bucky's Goods (And according to Bill, he was now dating Melba). Speaking of which, the store became quite popular, and more stores opened around the states. Harold continued to be a basketball coach at Harry's school... and was currently seeing Violet, his old girlfriend.
Rudy and Donald's friendship had continued to grow much better, that they visited each other often now. Rudy turned his former house of whores into a recording studio and made his many girls into stars. His relationship with Danielle grew as well, and the wedding would be approaching very soon. Donald also got a job within the studio... as a janitor. But hey, it was a job nonetheless...
As for Alya, she started to become more social. She was allowed to go to the local parks and play, thus making new friends. She would help her father in the recording studio sometimes.
Mush continued teaching kids about speech. It's what he loved.
"So when are we gonna show our folks what we got planned?" Harry asked.
"We gotta wait for Alya." Theo told him, "She's not here yet..."
But as soon as he said that, he heard a voice that made him smile, "We're here!" Everyone turned to see the Davis' entering the junkyard, with Danielle holding something. Albert went to greet them, "Hey, hey, hey. About time you made it."
"Well, you try sitting in traffic for over an hour..." Rudy snorted, "But anyways, we got something for you dudes."
Danielle gave him something, and Albert smiled when he read it.
You are cordially invited
To witness the betroth of
Danielle Simone
and
Rudolph Davis
on the Twenty Fourth of June
at 6:00 PM
In Time Square
"Hey, hey, hey. You got a spot in Time Square?" Albert asked, "That's amazing."
Rudy shrugged, "Well when you make the money like I do... you tend to have access to these certain things."
Trina took a look at Danielle, and smirked, "I see this wedding isn't the only thing you two are looking forward to." She then poked a finger at Danielle's belly, "It's not too big, but I know a baby bump when I see it."
The poofy haired woman blushed, "You caught me. We were hoping to announce it, but you find out pretty quickly. I'm due in August." She then looked down at the two-month-old sitting content in his car seat, "Is that Jamal? Oh, he's so handsome. Congrats."
"He gets it from me..." Albert chuckled, "Now, all we need is..."
"Hey, dudes."
Once again, all turned to the entrance of the junkyard to see Bucky, his wife Sasha, and a new little addition to their small family. Bucky was grinning from ear to ear as he held up the four-month-old for everyone to see, "We want you to meet Janae Isabel Miller. We call her Jan for short."
Harold and Mush had already met Jan, but this was the first time everyone else was seeing her. Immediately, they began gushing over the little girl, as she cooed and smiled.
"She's just precious..." Cami said.
"She looks just like you, Sasha..." Leia added as she reached to touch the infant's curly black hair, "Absolutely gorgeous."
"Yeah. I'm not seeing too much Bucky in her." Bill commented.
Rudy smirked, "Yeah, that's how you know she's beautiful."
Bucky looked sad, but his wife soon came to his defense, "Well, I see a lot of Bucky in my little mijita. She's a perfect mix of both of us." She said, "A beautiful princesa."
Alya had soon joined her friends as she gave Theo a hug, "Nice to see you again, hero." She winked, making him blush again.
"Aw, Alya. We can save the mushy stuff for later. We got a show to put on."
With that, the kids scrambled to get everything ready. Their parents sat in makeshift seats the kids made from junk, and waited in anticipation for whatever was going to happen.
Soon, they started to hear a familiar tune... and soon, Theo slid in front, holding an old microphone.
"Hey, hey, hey!" He greeted, "I ain't Faaaat Albert, but still..."
That's when he began to sing.
I'm gonna sing a song for you
The men smiled brightly when they heard that first line. They instantly knew what they were in for.
And we're gonna show you a thing or two
Donald and Mush grinned when he saw April blowing into a steam pipe, and Fuschia playing a makeshift banjo. Harold was delighted to see Harry strumming on bed springs. Bill and Russell beamed to see Elvin and Nelson playing the trashcan drums and xylophone cans respectively. Bucky chuckled at Sondra on the makeshift organ. Rudy was estastic as Alya strummed her pink and purple electric guitar (stylized with a big 'A') he gifted her for Christmas.
You'll have some fun now, with me and all the gang
Learning from each other, while we do our thing
Sing it!
With that command, the other kids began to join in the singing, having fun as they did so.
Na na na, gonna have a good time (Hey, hey, hey!)
Na na na, gonna have a good time (Hey, hey, hey!)
The gang was so happy for this moment, that they, along with their wives, couldn't help but join in on the fun with the kids. It was an opportunity they couldn't miss out on, now that they were back together.
Na na na, gonna have a good time (hey, hey, hey!)
Na na na, gonna have a good time (Hey, hey hey!)
Na na na, gonna have a good time (Hey, hey, heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeyyyyyyyy)
With that, the number was finished, as everyone began laughing, cheering, and hugging each other. Albert was the one who was the happiest. When he thought he would never get a moment like this ever again... it ended up happening anyway.
And just like he had hoped... they were indeed having a good time.
THE END
Well, that's it. That's the end. Thank you guys so much for reading this. I had so much fun writing this. But like all things, it had to come to an end. So, the kids meet up again to put on a show for their folks. Trina has baby Jamal. Rudy and Danielle's wedding will be in Time Square. Bucky and Sasha finally have their baby girl Janae, but they call her Jan. And I gave her that nickname after Jan Crawford, the original voice actor for Bucky and Russell from the old show.
Oh yeah, Danielle's pregnant. More fun surprises.
All in all, everyone seems to be doing well...
... WHO WANTS A SEQUEL?
Okay, okay. But seriously, if I ever come up with a follow up to this, it may be a while before it comes, as I have other stuff to focus on right now. But until that day comes, thanks again for reading. I'll see you guys later. And as always, don't forget to review, please. Thank you!
