One Final Search
Chapter 1
This is the second-to-last episode of my Scooby-Doo series, "Scooby-Doo and Chillers".
Scooby and friends were just beginning to celebrate Diguro's defeat when they heard an eerie laugh from the house where they had fought the digital villain. "You fools!" a voice boomed, "Did you really think you could just walk away? You may have defeated my digital creation, but I still remain!"
A green, digital barrier appeared, surrounding Scooby and friends and preventing them from leaving. "Rikes!" Scooby said.
"We've got to get back in that house," Fred said, "Come on!" The girls and he went into the house, but Scooby and Shaggy stayed outside.
"Like, we're not going in that creepy old house again!" Shaggy said, "We'll stay right here." Then the digital barrier began to shrink and move toward them. "Or not!" Shaggy ran into the house with Scooby.
Everyone walked through the large, spacious living room. "Like, I thought we were done going to this house!" Shaggy told Scooby, "Why couldn't we be stuck in a place with more food and less fright?" When they all came to the room with a lever in it, the entire room suddenly flashed white, and a screen appeared on one wall. A man wearing glasses and a hat and clothes marked with Diguro's symbol was on the screen. "Zoinks!" Shaggy exclaimed.
"Hahahaha!" the man laughed, "So, you've managed to get this far, mystery-solvers…and I see you've brought Winter."
Chillers jumped in Velma's arms, her eyes wide with fear. "H-how do you know about Chillers's old name?" Velma asked the man on the screen.
"Well, you see, Winter once belonged to me!" the man replied. The others gasped. "When I first began to work on Project Diguro, I needed to do some experiments while creating Digi, the prototype," the man explained, "I came across Winter, and seeing how unique she is, brought her home. But, she refused to be the subject of my experiments, so I let her go."
"So you're Chillers's old owner and the professor who created Diguro!" Daphne said.
How could you do such a thing to Chillers?!" Velma said angrily, "Didn't you realize how hard it would be for her to survive on her own? You left her all alone with no food, shelter, or friends!"
"That's not my problem," the professor replied simply, "Now, I am Winter's rightful owner, and I demand that you give her back to me!"
"No way, pal," Fred said firmly, "Chillers is staying with us!"
"Then I will take her!" the professor declared.
"I'd like to see you try!" Velma ran out of the room carrying Chillers, and the others followed her.
"Well, if you put it that way…" the professor said to himself, and the screen disappeared.
Everyone ran through a hallway. When they could see that the professor was gone, they stopped in another room to catch their breath. Chillers clung tightly to Velma, still frightened. "Don't worry, Chillers," Velma said, rubbing Chillers's head, "we won't let that man take you." Chillers seemed to calm down at this.
Suddenly, a huge robot crashed into the room. It was yellow and had red and white-striped arms with claw-like hands. A lens-like device was on the front of its head and it moved using a conveyor belt-like device. "Zoinks! What's that?" Shaggy said.
In the episode before this one, Scooby and friends defeated Diguro. That's why this one starts out the way it does.
The house in this episode is the same one they visited in episode four, "Something in the Shadows".
