A New Beginning
Chapter 2
Fred: How about Chillers? Her cry sounds like that, and her fur is white like snow.
Everyone agreed-that name seemed to fit her!
Daphne: Chillers it is!
Hearing this, the newly named creature opened her eyes.
Chillers: Chee! (I am Chillers!)
Shaggy: Hey! Look, Scoob, there's still this apple left!
Chillers jumped up and ate the apple.
Shaggy: Like, what kind of cat eats apples?
Chillers: Chee chee! (A hungry one!)
Daphne: No wonder Chillers is so hungry. She's so skinny! She probably hasn't had anything to eat for days!
Shaggy: Like, Scoob and I could never go for that!
Scooby: Ruh-uh! (Uh-uh!)
Chillers yawned and stretched, seeming completely satisfied with her new life. Then she jumped back in Velma's arms and went to sleep again.
Velma: Chillers is such an unusual creature. Even I can't figure out what species she is. She looks like a cat, but she certainly doesn't act or eat like one.
Soon, they came to a house. Everyone got out of the Mystery Machine and went into the house. Chillers was still sleeping. Velma set Chillers down on a grey-colored couch in one corner. Scooby, Shaggy, Fred, and Daphne went into another room.
Scooby: Rhere's Relma rand Rhillers? (Where's Velma and Chillers?)
Fred: They're in the other room.
Daphne: You can see Chillers if you want, but be gentle. She might still be sleeping, and you don't want to frighten her.
Scooby went into the other room. Velma was watching Chillers, who was sleeping on the grey couch still.
Scooby: Relma, ris Rhillers rawake ret? (Velma, is Chillers awake yet?)
Velma: No, she's still asleep.
Scooby walked up to Velma and stood beside her, watching Chillers too. Chillers didn't move. She just lay there, breathing softly, looking calm and content. Velma gently rubbed Chillers' fur and spoke her thoughts.
Velma: It's possible that Chillers could be a new species that has never been discovered. There could be a lot of new undiscovered species that no one knows about.
Scooby: Really?
Velma: Yes. But I don't know how Chillers's old owner could have abandoned her like that. She was left all alone with no clue what to do, and she ended up in this condition. It's sad…
Scooby: Rawww. (Awww.)
Scooby gently licked Chillers' cheek. The small sleeping creature moved a little but didn't wake up. Scooby and Velma continued to watch Chillers until she woke up a few minutes later.
Scooby: Re raven't rintroduced rourselves! (We haven't introduced ourselves!)
Velma: You're right, Scooby! Let's go see the others so Chillers can learn all our names.
In this story I tried to make a better reason why they named her Chillers, and why Velma and she are such good friends.
