A/N: This is it. Here's the conclusion

Chapter 9

One Month Later

Angela was finally home from the hospital and to celebrate her homecoming and the birth of Melinda Joy Gage, Mel for short, the Walkers were throwing a party. Angela was doing much better, her ribs were nearly healed (it wasn't nearly as bad of a break as they originally thought), the cuts and bruises were a thing of the past (the stitches were long gone) and her arm, well that still needed a cast for a while but she was definitely back to her perky, adventurous self.

Ever since she met baby Mel, her heath just improved at a great pace. The adults stemmed it off of the bond they share, almost like they were twins or at least sisters in a previous life. Whatever the reason, Angela fussed over Mel every time they were together, wanting to hold her, feed her and never stop talking about how much fun they'd have when Mel got older.

Even though the party took place in August, everyone treated it as a mini Thanksgiving. After all they did have so much to be thankful for. They were all in good health, the new addition to the Walker family was going to be born in another few months and best of all Reager had been convicted for his latest crime and would live the rest of his life in prison where he belonged.

"You know guys," Alex said as she watched Angela running around with some of the other Ranger's children, "we are so lucky."

"I know what you mean," Sydney said as she looked at her husband and then down at Mel who was sleeping in her arms. "We have such a great family and even though it was a little rocky there a month ago we stuck it out and here we are together with our health and happiness."

"Yeah," everyone agreed.

"Together forever with each other," Walker said," I think I can live with that."
