It was after lunch when the gang decided to head out to the graveyard to check out the suspicious activity. They drove on down to the cemetary, without Steve or Joe, because they didn't want them to see the unbelievable if it happened. When they arrived, they went on over to the grave site of Steve and Joe's grandmother.
"So, this is their grandmother's grave?", Daphne asked.
"I'm afraid so", Velma said, "She seemed like a nice lady."
"I liked her homemade banana cookies." Shaggy said, "man, did me and Scoob enjoy them when Steve got them for Christmas one time."
"They were good," Fred said, "but we need to focus on the mystery for now, ok?"
"Sure Fred." Shaggy said displeased.
"What do we know so far, Velma?" Fred asked her.
"Well, we know she was buried here 3 years ago. I know of this because Steve told me he had to take off of college for a week to be with the family. We know that he had to dig up her grave a year ago on some sick twisted quest to save his brother. And now we know there is a mysterious figure lurking around this grave probably in search of the "treasure" she has with her underground. That's what we know so far."
Suddenly, they see the same figure shown on the news earlier that day. He was indeed carrying a shovel, and was looking for something. The gang could things like, "Must find the treasure" and "Where did they bury that dumb woman at". The figure then found what he was looking for, and sadly, it was Steve's grandmother's grave. The figure then saw the gang and started chasing after them. The gang got back into the mystery machine, and drove off towards the house, to warn Steve and Joe of the dark reality.
Steve was just chilling on the sofa watching TV when Blue came up to him. Steve told Blue that she could get up on his lap so he can pet her. He then started to talk to her. "You know Blue, I'm happy to be back with you. For 4 years, I left you behind at the house, only to see you during the summer and holidays. Now, I work online at home just to be with you."
Blue understand where he was coming from, and hugged him. Then Joe came into the room.
"You don't mind if I join you? Our program is coming up." Joe said.
"Sure", Steve said. Joe then plopped on the other side of the couch to give Steve and Blue room.
"Do you think the gang found something?" Joe asked.
"I'm sure they did." Steve said, "They always find something, just like the case 3 years ago."
"You mean when the university was haunted?"
"Yeah. To tell you the truth, I was ready to get out of there, but knew they might needed help. So I did, and it turned out that it was a cover up to shut down the school for oil. OIL! Anyway, let me change the..."
Suddenly, tires screeched out front. Steve and Joe looked out the window to find the gang running up the walkway to the door.
"Oh no." Steve said concerned,"I think they found the ghost, and came face to face with it."
The gang busted inside out of breath. It was a minute before anyone could say anything. Then Velma spoke up, "Steve, I dont want to alarm you, but that figure we saw on TV earlier, well, it's true, and it scared us away from your Grandmother's grave!"
"Grandma!" Steve shouted in fear.
"Steve, you got to calm down," said Joe in a passive kind of voice, "You're doing an episode for the children in 30 minutes, why dont you go, try to relax, and get ready for the show?"
"I don't think I can. With that though of my Grandmother being dug up, and over some sort of stupid treasure. This must be someone we know!"
"Steve. Joe." Fred began to talk, "Why don't you both get ready for your show, and leave the mystery hunting to us, ok."
"That sounds great." Steve said relieved, "Thank you so much, I would really appreciate it. I know I have good hands to have when it comes to mystery solving."
"No problem." Velma said, and turning to the gang, "Ok, we need to split up."
"Agreed" Fred said, "Shaggy and Scoob, you stay here and see what you can find out more about their Grandmother and her back story. Look for every fact that may help us in this case."
"Sure thing Fred" Shaggy said confidently.
"Velma, Daphne, and I will head back to the graveyard to see if anything changed. Now on three, we leave. One, two, three!" The gang then went into two groups. Shaggy and Scooby asked to see old albums of Grandma from Steve and Joe, which they approved. Fred, Daphne, and Velma got into the Mystery Machine, and headed on over the graveyard. Things were just getting interesting as soon, it will reveal the real motive behind the case.
