Epilogue

The virtuous duo looked traded glances a second time, still panting and trying to catch their breath. Ray smiled and began to chuckle, as if he found something amusing. Stitch watched his cousin snicker to himself before cracking a smile of his own. The two of them sat on the grass, chuckling and smiling, before Ray looked at Stitch with a relieved smile.
"Well... that's that." he said, as if officially ending Shadow's reign of terror. The duo stood to their feet and walked back to the buggy, beaten, wounded, and bleeding. But alive.
"Inga twoo ka mataka," Stitch commented casually. Ray gave him a friendly smirk and replied.
"You're not such a bad fighter yourself." The pair of cousins climbed into the buggy, turned on the ignition, and drove to the comfort of the Pelekai house.

3 months later...

Normality had slowly but surely crept it's way back into the Pelekai household. Ray was now a full time member of the family, using his singing abilities to entertain his o'hana when things were slow. Shortly after Shadow's death, a pod was recovered, containing Ray's son,
Tamashuta, who also welcomed into the household with open arms, like his father before him.

Nani had returned to work shortly after her injuries were healed. Thanks to a special serum in Jumba's medicine, she had no recollection of her near-death experience. She was given the belief that her injured knee was the result of an accident that took place on her way home from work. She was still aware of Shadow's existence, but was oblivious to her encounter with him.

625 learned about Gantu's death shortly after Shadow's demise. Shaken, he rushed to the shelter of the Pelekai residence, fearful that he would be the next on Shadow's list. Though the o'hana had reassured him countless times that Shadow was dead, 625 still felt a sense of insecurity. He resided in the household until he felt sure enough that he could live on his own. His departure was casual and nonchalant, but his gratitude was evident evermore.

Lilo and Stitch resumed their task of capturing Jumba's experiments and converting them from bad to good, now without the worry of a tragic demise for themselves and their extended o'hana.

Jumba and Pleakley had returned to their normal lives of performing experimentations and maxing out Nani's credit cards.

And for the first time in a long, long while, the entire o'hana felt a sense of peace and security that was to last for years to come.

Well, that's it for Evil's Shadow. If the epilogue seems too short, I'm sorry. I really didn't have too many ideas as to what to do with the characters for the moment. I needed to wrap it up.
Don't worry, though: there's gonna be more. I've got quite a few ideas lined up for what to do with Shadow. It's not over yet.

Thank you all for reading! I'm glad that I was able to entertain [most] everyone who followed along. Don't take me off your watch list just yet: I've only just begun to write.
