Author's Note:

Now this is both the Scooby-Doo and Captain Caveman story, since they both live in the same town. Expect more of these in the future. So without further ado, we present to you, the new story!

In a typical late-August afternoon, Shaggy and Scooby were alone at home with the former practicing the guitar for an upcoming rock music competition finals.

"Like, I never thought that I'd make it this far into the competition, Scoob." Shaggy remarked as he practiced.

"Rye didn't think you could play a single note." Scooby remarked.

"Yeah, I've never even had a single lesson!" Shaggy chuckled.

Shaggy then shrugged before he added, "I guess I somehow managed to pick up the beat after stop taking guitar lessons last fall. Oh well."

He then carried on with his practice while Scooby left him alone in his room, not wanting to disturb Shaggy.

Meanwhile, Daphne, Brenda, Dee Dee and Taffy were hanging out at the mall as usual.

"I can't believe Shaggy managed to make it to the rock music competition finals." Taffy remarked.

"I can't believe he made into the competition at all." Dee Dee rolled his eyes. "That guy can't even boil water!"

The girls started laughing at Dee Dee's snark.

"Sometimes, you just have to expect the unexpected when it comes to Shaggy." Daphne said as they calmed down.

"And Scooby..." Dee Dee added. "And especially Cavey and his son, Junior."

"Speaking of Cavey and his son, Junior is starting preschool tomorrow, which is the same day I'm getting my cast off." said Brenda.

"Ah, that's good to hear." Daphne smiled. "I suppose it must be a relief to get that cast off and be out of those crutches."

"Indeed it is, Daphne." Brenda nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, I'll finally be able to walk right again." said Brenda. "The doctor said I can keep the cast and crutches, too."

"Good to hear." Dee Dee said.

"So Brenda, I heard that some old friends of yours visited this weekend." said Daphne.

"Oh, yes." Brenda nodded. "They're my old friends from Central City."

"They wanted to keep Brenda all for themselves, but I knew better than to let them corrupt her!" Dee Dee boasted. "She's part of our crew now!"

"Oh, please." Brenda rolled her eyes.

"Well, I have to go home now, guys." said Taffy. "I have to get up early to take Junior to school tomorrow."

"Awww..." Dee-Dee laughed. "Widdle Cavey Wavey Jr wants his mommy to take him to school. Isn't that just adorable?"

"Tell me about it." Taffy deadpanned.

All the girls except for Taffy started laughing.

The very next morning, it was time for another week of school. This would also be the first day of modern preschool for Junior.

Taffy went upstairs to the guest bedroom, where Cavey and Junior were sleeping.

Cavey was dreaming about him and Taffy on a small island, and Junior was dreaming about saving a whole city from a runaway brontosaurus train.

"Better wake Junior up..." thought Taffy.

Taffy then started stroking Junior's fur so gently.

"Junior...Junior..." she whispered. "Time to get up honey...baby..."

Junior groaned as he turned.

"This should work on Junior..." Taffy said in her thoughts.

She bent down and started giving Junior lots and lots of kisses all over his face to wake him up.

Eventually, Junior opened his eyes and yawned.

"Good morning, Junior." Taffy said.

"Good morning mommy..." said Junior.

"Time for preschool." Taffy smiled.

"I don't want to go to school, mama!" Junior exclaimed. "I wanna stay home and play with you!"

"Sorry, Junior." Taffy said. "But you have to go."

"But what if nobody likes me?" asked Junior.

"I'm sure you can fit in well, Junior." Taffy smiled reassuringly. "I'm sure."

"But I wanna stay here with you and daddy, momma!" said Junior.

"Sorry honey, but I have to go to school, too." Taffy said "And going to school is important, because it makes you smart."

"Oh...what is 'smart'?" Junior asked.

Taffy sighed. "Just come downstairs and be ready..."

Junior nodded as Taffy made her way out of the room. He was very nervous: he had never been to school in a million years, but he knew he had to go if he were to thrive in the 21st century.

Several minutes later, Junior came downstairs to the front door, where Taffy was waiting for him.

"Momma I'm ready." he said.

"Super terrific!" said Taffy. "Now come on, let's walk you to school!"

Junior nodded as he followed Taffy out of the door.

Taffy grabbed Junior's tiny, four-fingered hand and walked him to his new school, where there were various parents dropping their kids off. Conveniently, Junior's school was right next door to Taffy's.

"Okay Junior, have fun at your school." said Taffy. "I have to go to my school now, okay?"

"Okay momma, I'll go." said Junior.

"And don't bring your club to school!" Taffy said as she took Junior's club out of his hand "I don't want you to get in trouble!"

"Why's that?" Junior asked.

"Because you could hurt somebody," Taffy waved her finger at him. "And no flying either!"

"Okay." Junior pouted.

"Good." Taffy smiled. "Now go inside. Mommy has to go to her school now."

"Yes momma." Junior nodded.

"Now kiss mommy goodbye." Taffy said as she got down on her knees, closed her eyes, and puckered her lips.

Junior nodded before standing on his tiptoes to give Taffy a kiss on the lips.

"Bye sweetie, I'll see you after school!" Taffy said as she waved goodbye to Junior and walked next door to her school.

"Bye momma." Junior nodded as he made his way to the school.

Meanwhile, Brenda's parents were driving her to the hospital to get her cast off.

"It's great to see that you're going to get your cast off, dear." Her father said.

"Yeah, it sure is." Brenda nodded. "I'll finally be able to walk properly again."

"Especially since Becca is coming home to visit from boarding school next weekend." Mel added.

"Oh yes, that." Brenda nodded. "I wonder how is she doing?"

"Maybe when we get to the hospital, you can call her while you are waiting for your cast to come off?" suggested Mel.

"Maybe." Brenda nodded.

The Chance family soon arrived at the hospital. They walked to the receptionist's desk to check Brenda in for her appointment.

"Hello, I'm Mel Chance, and this is my wife, Laurel, we're here to have our daughter's cast to get removed today." said Mel.

"Oh yeah, 'Chance', you're wanted in room 704." The receptionists yawned.

Mel turned to Brenda and nodded. "Let's go."

The Chances headed upstairs to the room, where the nurse was waiting for them.

"Hi Brenda, how are you feeling?" The nurse asked in greeting as they entered the room.

"I'm doing good, Ms. Conroy." Brenda smiled. "And you?"

"I'm good." Ms. Conroy smiled back. "Ready to get your cast off?"

"I sure am." Brenda nodded.

"Good," Ms. Conroy nodded. "Now just stay here and rest. We'll be ready to remove your cast in a couple of hours."

Looks like Junior has started school, and Brenda is about to get her cast off. I wonder how this will turn out for them. Stay tuned!
