The escort led Mystery Inc. down a long corridor until they met up with what appeared to be an alien of a shiny, silver-like, complexion. This alien wore a royal red, with golden epaulets adorning his shoulders. For a Systems Alliance with no humans, they sure did know a lot about human apparel. Robin took in the high tech nature of the complex they were walking through. Eons ahead of even the most advanced races he had heard of. Everyone snapped to attention at the alien clad in dark red. He had a white mustache, and huge white eyes will small black pupils. His hands were clawed, and his feet were concealed by boots.

The troopers kneeled, and Mystery Inc. plus one followed suit. One of the green troopers ground out in a gruff voice, "Commander Rulaf!"

The alien commander nodded. When he spoke he carried an air of authority. "Identify yourselves." He ordered.

Shaggy started laughing nervously, as he said, "Well, like, I'm Shaggy. This is Scooby-Doo."

"Rello!" Scooby waved.

Before Shaggy could continue, the alien commander extended his hand. He nodded at the escorts, who departed.

"Come with me, all of you." Mystery Inc. plus one followed the command.

They followed Commander Rulaf down a long hallway that seemed to be leading into a conference room. When they reached the conference room, they saw at least twelve representatives, one from each race that apparently was part of the S.A.S.S. Under each, there were names and planets of origin. Robin saw the planets of Tamaran and Xenon, among others.

"This is the council." Rulaf began. "There is one representative from each race within the Systems Alliance. Currently only twelve planets have joined us. We hope that given time, more will join."

Rulaf pointed to a bi-pedal cat-like alien, with pointed feline ears, and a triangular nose. It had black and green cat eyes, and its skin color was a dark red orange, with jet black stripes.

"This is Calek, a Felonis from the planet Norn." He introduced. He pointed to a Gray alien. "Alee Natal, from the planet Xenon."

He had introduced eight more before pointing to what appeared to be a bi-pedal Golden Retriever, wearing Roman or Greek styled emperor garb. "Gronis hails from the planet Dogea. He is of the Labradath race."

And finally, Rulaf ended introductions by pointing to an Alien that looked like one of the green ones that had escorted the gang there. "And that there, is Stargon. He is a Cisceerian from the planet Ciscera."

"Nice." Robin said. "Now why are we here?"

"Yeah." Velma asked, "Why do you want Scooby and Shaggy?"

"He knows of the S.A.S.S.'s existence, as do you now. Earth doesn't need to know of our existence. We have seen your planet's capabilities for violence. We would never work with such a feral planet." Rulaf replied.

"Then why were you snooping around our back yard?" Robin asked.

"Reports were coming in that Cisceerian troops had landed on Earth, abducting humans. Our agents quickly handled the rumor." Calek replied.

"Unfortunately, our agents' discoveries came at a price. Their cover was blown several times during the mission, and eventually, they exposed to your tall friend and his dog, that they worked for us." Alee Natal added.

"Like, when they said 'alien government', we thought, like, 'Gray USA'!" Shaggy chuckled nervously.

"Now, Shaggy, have you told anyone about your discovery?" Rulaf asked.

"Like, on Earth, they wouldn't believe me anyway!" Shaggy replied.

"I see."

At this news, the council talked and whispered among themselves. Before making any kind of decision, Calek silently ordered for Rulaf to send away the Earthlings, to which the alien commander obeyed. He ushered Mystery Inc. out of the meeting room, and told them that he would find them when the council had made a decision.

"Well, that was interesting." Daphne remarked.

"So, like, what do we do now?" Shaggy asked.

"We investigate." Fred answered.

"I agree. Something smells fishy around here." Velma said.

"Well, if there's something fishy, Scoob and I better investigate the food court." Shaggy said, chuckling.

"Reah! Rood court!" Scooby said, licking his lips, and following his owner to the cafeteria.

After they had left, Robin asked, "While those two are 'investigating', where will we look for clues?"

Before Fred could answer, the doors behind them slid open. Out stepped Rulaf. "Until the council had come to a decision, we will house you here. Follow me to your rooms." Rulaf strode in front of them and lead the way.

"Like, two liverwursts a la mode, please!" Shaggy asked the orange skinned girl standing behind the counter. The green eyed alien tilted her head before asking, "Ju no 'liverwurst'?"

"Oh, I see you don't speak English." Shaggy said. "Uh, how 'bout a number eight?" He pointed to the menu behind her. The girl looked at where Shaggy pointed, and said, "Chik Chik Taka Naka?"

"Uh, yeah! Sure!" Shaggy pulled out his wallet. "Like how much?"

The girl shook her head and handed him the plate of food. On the plate, was a pinkish blob, with green coral-like pieces surrounding it like lettuce. Golden noodle-like things adorned the bottom of the plate, and it looked, weird.

"Nujo!" The girl smiled.

Shaggy said to Scooby, "Looks delicious, like, doesn't it Scoob?"

Scooby shook his head at an impossible rate. "Nuh uh!"

"Well, let's at least try it, Scooby Doo." Shaggy and Scooby sat at a blue cafeteria table, both grabbing a fork. Before they dug in, an alien looking like the Space Kook sat next to them. It ate its meal without incident, while Shaggy and Scooby shook like worms. After finishing its alien sandwich, it got up, sparing a glance at the two, and muttered under its breath as it walked away.

Shaggy and Scooby cry-laughed in relief, when suddenly they heard, "What's wrong guys? Never seen an alien before?"

They perked up. They knew that voice!

"Crystal!" Shaggy turned around and shouted!

"Ramber!" Scooby greeted, as a bald, silver skinned female alien sat next to them, a green and dark blue four legged alien in tow.

"Like, man, has it been too long since we've seen you guys!" Shaggy said, with Scooby nodding in agreement.

"I've missed you guys. Man, wasn't that a groovy mission you and I were on!" Crystal reminisced.

"Like, you still talk my lingo!" Shaggy grinned like a fool.

Scooby smiled at Amber, the alien dog-creature, who turned away, her cheeks turning a deep blue. The alien sat and ate shyly, not giving much in the way of conversation.

"Like, what's wrong with Amber?" Shaggy asked.

"Our chief geneticist has been doing some tests on Amber. We don't know why, and he won't say, but the tests have left her tired lately." Crystal answered.

"Oh. I see." Shaggy said, picking up a piece of blob with his fork. As the foreign object met his tongue, he smiled impossibly.

Digging in, he said to Scooby, "Come on Scoob! This tastes, like, delicious!"

Scooby cautiously took a bite, before shouting, "Re-Ricious!"

Crystal laughed as Shaggy and Scooby ate like only they could. Humans were so amusing.

A/N: Next chapter begins the investigation, also, THE Justice League make an appearance! If not next chapter, then the chapter after. I'd like to thank my two reviewers, especially JC Rose for the lovely constructive criticism. I hope it's a little more spaced out this chapter. Also, I know it's very dialogue heavy, but once the investigating starts, it'll be more balanced.

And to anyone who's seen this but has been hesitant about reviewing, please do! Let me know how I'm doing! It'll be greatly appreciated!
