Hello, my viewers. As you all know, I have adopted this story from Gandalf15, and little Harry Potter was found first by a group of well-meaning people plus a dog, whom are called Mystery Inc. Hence, he was saved from being sent to the Dursleys, or manipulated by Dumbledore. Yet there are some important things to change/stop throughout the years. So, you all enjoy this story, and Merry Christmas, New Year's Eve to you all! -Traveler.

-Halloween Night, 1981-

In a universe, through the Milky Way Galaxy, over a series of planets, is the only populated planet of the solar system, Earth, and upon Earth, is Europe, one of the seven continents, and within Europe, is a country called the United Kingdom. Miles away from the capital of the country, is a village/town called Godric's Hollow. This place belongs to many species, one of them being called magical people.

It was a cold, dark night in the small English town. The only light came from the identical streetlights upon the streets and alleyways between the identical houses. All was silent and still.

Suddenly, a cloaked figure came running around the corner. Dressed like an old movie vampire, its cloak flapped as the figure fled down the street. Behind the figure, three teenagers rounded the corner in hot pursuit. "Come on!", cried the blonde, light blue-eyed only boy. "The Kooky Count is getting away!".

The two others, girls, kept up with him. One was tall and dressed in purple with orange-red hair, and dark blue eyes. The other was short with brown eyes, hair, and wearing glasses. "Wait, Fred, Daphne!". Velma, the one with glasses, cried. "Look! That house is on fire!". She stopped immediately when she saw something.

Sure enough, smoke was rising from one of the houses, although most of it had already burned down and was now a pile of charred rubble. Oddly enough, nobody else living on the block seemed to have noticed, as there was no one else out. "Forget the Count!", yelled Fred. "We have to help!".

They all ran up to the house, just as a mangy-looking boy with dusty blonde hair, light brown eyes and a dark brown Great Dane rounded the corner. "Like, whoa!". Shaggy, the boy, said.

"Reah!". Scooby-doo, the dog, barked. They both ran over to the others.

Fred poked around the rubble. "Gang, it doesn't look like anyone's- wait! What's that?". Everyone listened. The sound of a baby's cries floated through the air. "It's coming from over there!". said Daphne. She moved a plank of wood to reveal a small male baby lying in the ashes.

"Aw, poor thing!". Daphne and Velma cooed. Daphne picked the baby up and cradled him in her arms. "Where are the parents?". asked Velma.

Shaggy glanced away, and paled. "Like, I think they're over there.".

The others looked. Daphne put her hand over her mouth. "Oh, no.". said Fred.

Velma looked at the baby. "The poor little thing's an orphan now.". "We'll have to find an orphanage to put him in.". stated Fred.

"Maybe not, man.". Shaggy said suddenly. The others looked at him. "What do you mean, Shaggy?". asked Daphne.

Shaggy took the baby from her. "I dunno, I just kinda like the look of the little fella. I think I'd like to raise him.".

The others were astonished. "Are you sure, Shag?". asked Fred. Shaggy nodded. "Yeah. The more I think about it, the better it sounds. What do you think, Scoob?".

Scooby looked unsure. "Uh... rokay.". "Then, like, it's decided," said Shaggy.

"Well, if the British authorities let you, what will you name him?". Velma questioned.

Shaggy looked at the baby. "Like, look at the weirdo scar on his head.". On the baby's forehead, there was a scar shaped like a lightning bolt.

"Like, I think I'll call him… Zappy. Yeah, Zappy.". "Zappy?". asked Velma incredulously.

"Yeah, like why not?". Shaggy grinned softly.

Fred said, "Well, the Kooky Count's long gone by now. Let's head back to the Mystery Machine.". As the gang walked down the street, Shaggy looked down at little Zappy. He'd fallen asleep in his arms, his messy black hair rustling Shaggy's red shirt. Shaggy saw Zappy's eyes briefly, being a luminous emerald green. Shaggy smiled softly, "Don't worry, I'll take care of you, kiddo. I may not be family, but I think your folks wanted you to be safe somehow. Zappy, you're going to be a great kid, I know it.".
