Okay as promised here is the next stage of the next generation series but before we get into the mystery they're going to solve I'm going to take a couple of Chapters to set things up. Okay age wise the twins are seventeen Jackie is sixteen and Daisy is fifteen. The triplets are ten now. This first chapter is going to focus on a now very important aspect of the group as teens their ride!
…...
"Happy birthday guys" Shaggy greeted his oldest kids as they entered the dining room.
"Thanks Dad" the twins replied in unison.
The twins were turning seventeen. Shaggy Jr now looked almost exactly like his father in fact because of this Shaggy Jr loved to confuse his younger siblings but the fangs were always a dead give away. Since it was their birthday Taylor had talked him into dressing up well sort of. Shaggy Jr wore a blue top,black jeans,his usual tennis shoes and a leather jacket. Taylor on the other hand had chosen a deep blue dress and flats. Her dusty blonde hair was neatly pulled back into a ponytail and she wore a headband with a large pink bow on it.
"Happy birthday" the triplets greeted their siblings as they filed into the kitchen.
"Thanks guys" the twins replied as the triplets joined them at the table.
Beatrice had seemingly taken after Christina. She had long brown hair and brown eyes. Her wings were a deep red and butterfly like. She was a stubborn child often causing Christina a headache and Shaggy confusion. Today she wore a light green top and blue jeans with pink converse.
"Where's Mom?" Nathan asked with Luke looking for their absent mother.
"She went to get breakfast" Shaggy replied.
Nathan had black hair and brown eyes. He was exceptionally fast often Beatrice's partner in crime. He wore a red shirt that said WILL TRADE SISTER FOR VIDEO GAMES,brown pants and boots.. Luke was the complete opposite he liked to read and it didn't matter what it was comics,cook books,he read anything he could. He too looked like his father and like all the children shared the appetite. He was wearing some of Shaggy Jr's old clothes a green top with a race car on it,blue jeans and converse shoes.
"Good morning everyone" Christina said entering the room with two boxes of doughnuts and coffee.
"Morning Mom" the twins replied.
"Who want's breakfast?" Christina asked opening the doughnuts.
"We do" the kids cheered.
"Glazed or chocolate Beatrice?" Christina asked.
"Chocolate please"
"Nathen?"
"Glazed"
"Same here" Luke agreed.
"And for the birthday pair cream filled doughnuts"
"Thanks Mom"
"Let's eat"
…...
After breakfast.
"Taylor,SJ would you like your present now?" Shaggy asked.
"What do you think we should do Sammie?" Taylor asked.
"Now of course"
"Okay then. After hours and hours of debating last night your father and I decided that if your going to solve mysteries you'll need some transportation" Christina started with a smile.
"Mom you don't mean?"
"Follow us to the garage" Christina said standing.
Everyone went to the garage where the present was waiting with a large tarp thrown over it.
"What are you waiting for?" Shaggy asked.
"Go on"
The twins raced over to the tarp and yanked it off their present to reveal Shaggy's old red van which was now fixed up.
"Cool" the twins said taking in the sight before them.
"And the best part is you get to paint it yourselves"
"Can we call Jackie and Daisy?"
"Go ahead"
"Taylor go grab your art supplies we're going to need them"
"Right SJ" Taylor replied before rushing back into the house
While Taylor gathered art supplies Shaggy Jr texted the others. Who arrived in a matter of minutes since they lived close by. Daisy arrived first om her red bicycle. Daisy was wearing a light purple top and blue jeans. After parking her bike she met Shaggy Jr at the front door.
"Happy Birthday SJ"
"Thanks Daisy"
"Where's Taylor?"
"Inside you go ahead I'll wait for Jackie"
"Okay"
A few minutes later Jackie arrived. In her teen years she'd taken after her father's sense of style. She wore a long sleeved white shirt with a light yellow vest and skirt..
"Happy birthday SJ"
"Thanks Jackie let's go inside"
…..
"Hi Jackie" Taylor greeted her friend.
"Hi Taylor happy birthday"
"Thanks"
"So what's this emergency I was planing my costume for the party tonight" Daisy said as they sat down.
"Mom and Dad gave us Dad's old van and we get to paint it" Shaggy Jr explained.
"Cool"
"So what did you guys come up with?" Daisy asked.
"Nothing yet we wanted you guys to help us" Taylor said passing around paper and pencils.
The group set to work and even Sammie pitched in to help. They worked for a long time before Taylor looked up having finished her drawing.
"How about this?" she asked holding up her paper.
The picture showed the van redone in dark purple and black.
"It's nice but it's missing something" Jackie replied.
"How about we add some spider webs?" Shaggy Jr suggested.
"I like that idea and how about we paint the words Mystery Machine in white on the door here" Taylor added.
"Well I think it's settled let's grab some aprons and paint"
"Already covered" Christina said poking her head in.
"Thanks Mom"
"May we help?" Beatrice asked as she and the boys entered the room.
"Sure thing"
…...
Hours went by as the worked after a while the base colors were finished.
"That looks cool" Jackie said.
"Agreed but we need templates if we're going to finish it" Daisy said.
"template coming up" Taylor said waving her hand..
"Nice"
After thirty minutes later they were finished and left it to dry while they got ready for the party. Sometime later Taylor stepped out of her room dressed like a princess complete with crown. Shaggy Jr came out a few minutes later dressed like Superman Sammie matched his costume by wearing a cape tucked under her collar. The tree walked to the living room where Christina was painting whiskers on Beatrice as part of her cat costume. Nathan and Luke sat on the couch dressed as Batman and Robin.
"You guys look awesome" Taylor said as she and Shaggy Jr sat down.
"Thanks"
"Are you going to drive your car to the party?" Beatrice asked.
"Yeah we're going to pick up Daisy and Jackie and meet you guys there" Shaggy Jr replied.
"Well you better get going" Christina said looking at the clock.
"Okay come on Sammie"
…...
Shaggy Jr decided to drive and Taylor agreed on the condition they'd switch every once in a while. Sammie jumped in the back and off they went. They first arrived at Jackie's house where she and her parents were waiting outside. Jackie was dressed as a doctor for the party. She was bouncing nervously on her heels when the others arrived.
"Hey Jackie" Shaggy Jr greeted rolling down the window.
"Hey" Jackie said sliding in beside Taylor.
"How guys this van looks amazing" Jackson said while Velma nodded in agreement.
Next they went to Daisy's house where she was waiting with her parents.
"Sammie can you set the back seat up for Daisy?" Taylor asked as they pulled into the driveway.
"Sure"
"Nice job with the van guys" Daphne commented as Daisy who was dressed as a cowgirl climbed in the back.
"Thanks"
"You know if this was my van-"
"Dad quit it this isn't your van" Daisy called before Fred could start rambling.
"We'll see you guys later" Daphne said pulling Fred back in the house.
…...
During the ride Daisy had an idea.
"You know what we should do?" she asked.
"What?"
"We could totally set up a computer back here or something like that for when we solve mysteries"
"That sounds so cool" the others agreed.
"And we could have a TV for when we're not on a case" Jackie added.
"We should do that tomorrow" Taylor said.
"Agreed"
"Well we're here" Shaggy Jr announced as they pulled up to Miss Grimwood's.
"Let's go"
…...
