Sorry for the double posting on chapter 1. I don't know how it happened, but it is all fixed now.
This story was not intended to be a crossover, but as many authors know sometimes a story just goes where it wants to go.
I hope you like it.

This is the last chapter, and it has been fun to write. I wanted to get this finished before the end of April, but as usual the story had a mind of its own, nine days late isn't too bad.
Many thanks once again to Honeygirl51885 for the beautiful banner and congratulations on the birth of her daughter.
To my betas, Lnw86 who also helped with encouragement and suggestion for the story, and to Kittyfantastico, many thanks to both of you.
