Welcome back to another chapter of this story, it's been a while, hasn't it? Anyway enjoy the chapter!
Shaggy and Scooby stood there, shocked; The Doctor had revealed the aliens that they chased earlier as Crystal and Amber. They couldn't believe it, after all these years.
"C-C-Crystal?" Shaggy stuttered, lost for words.
"R-R-Ramber?" Scooby spluttered, also lost for words.
"Shaggy? Scooby? Oh my god, it's been so long…" Crystal said.
Crystal ran to Shaggy and gave him a hug, Shaggy was surprised by the hug but accepted it while Amber licked Scooby which made him giggle.
"Sorry to interrupt this reunion, but I need to know why the Cybermen are attacking…" The Doctor interrupted.
"Maybe we should split up and cover more ground…" Amber suggested.
"Like, even when we're not solving a mystery, we still have to split up!" Shaggy said to Scooby.
"Reah, robably rife rait roo!" Scooby said.
"Right, team, no that's terrible, gang, comrades. Anyway Scooby and Amber, investigate around this area, Shaggy and Crystal, check around the town, village, whatever it's called…" The Doctor ordered.
"What about you, Doctor?" Crystal asked.
"I need to have a chat with The Minister" The Doctor replied. "Meet back at the TARDIS in 10 minutes!"
The Doctor, Shaggy and Crystal walked into different directions while Scooby and Amber remained where they were.
"Ro rhere ro re ro?" Scooby wondered.
"I know a place, let's go" Amber answered.
"Rokay" Scooby said.
Scooby followed Amber to a room, it looked like a bedroom, and it had a bed, drawers and an armchair by the wall.
"Rhy are re rin rere?" Scooby asked.
"I have some files on the Cybermen around here somewhere…" Amber replied, digging her head under the bed.
"Ris is rour room?" Scooby pondered.
"Yes it is and Crystal's too" Amber stated.
Amber eventually emerged from the bed, grasping a file in her mouth.
"Here we go…" Amber said, her voice muffled by the file.
Amber dropped the file and using her paw, began flicking the pages. Scooby joined in at looking through the pages. Scooby then looked at Amber for a minute, even though it has been years, Scooby was still had feelings for her.
"Rid rou remember re, rafter rou reft?" Scooby asked, randomly.
"What do you mean?" Amber wondered.
"Rid rou remember re, rafter rou reft?" Scooby repeated.
"Of course, Scooby, I said I wouldn't forget you" Amber replied.
"Rou ridn't risit…" Scooby said.
"Sorry, after we came back home, The Minister wouldn't let us come back to Earth, we wanted to visit, honest" Amber said.
"I rnow" Scooby said, lowering his head.
"Look, Scooby, this relationship of ours couldn't have worked… I mean would like go out with someone like me?" Amber pondered.
"Reah" Scooby stated, nodding his head up and down.
"Even when I'm like this…" Amber continued, lifting up her bandana and reverting back to her alien form.
Scooby only responded by nodding up and down again.
Amber changed into her Earth form again, walked up to Scooby and licking him in the cheek, causing Scooby to giggle.
"You mean it, Scooby?" Amber asked.
"Ruh uh" Scooby responded, nodding again.
Meanwhile The Minister was in his main office observing the Cyber-ship from a monitor when The Doctor barged in, his long coat swaying in the slight breeze the door made.
"You should really knock, Doctor" The Minister stated.
"Where did the Cybermen come from? Any tear in the fabric of reality? Anything at all?" The Doctor questioned.
"Not that we know of, just came to our orbit out of nowhere…" The Minister explained.
"But since when my Cybermen had a ship?" The Doctor pondered.
"Your Cybermen?" The Minister asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Well, not my Cybermen, the Cybermen from a parallel universe, Pete's World, I call it, unless we're talking about the Mondasians" The Doctor replied.
"Indeed" The Minister said.
The Doctor started to leave the office.
"And where are you going?" The Minister asked.
"Well, someone has to stop the Cybermen" The Doctor said.
"You better hurry then, 10 minutes and my personal guard go in the ship" The Minister said.
The Doctor stopped in his tracks and turned around slowly to face The Minister and began to walk back towards him.
"You can't send in your army, they will be massacred" The Doctor stated.
"Then what SHOULD I do, Doctor? Let all of Sosnypso die?" The Minister barked to The Doctor.
"No, just let me handle it, don't send in your army…" The Doctor answered, standing to the side of The Minister.
The Doctor then rushed out of the office and slammed the door behind him. The Minister kept watching the Cyber ship get closer to orbit.
Meanwhile Shaggy and Crystal walked among the village, investigating while also catching up with each other.
"So you guys were involved in a war?" Crystal wondered.
"Like, yeah and we had some Avengers on our side and, not to mention, a huge transforming robot!" Shaggy replied, while examining a rock.
"Transforming robots? Like, from Cyberton?" Crystal questioned.
"Like, yeah he is!" Shaggy answered, placing the rock down.
"So, they went to Earth, huh? Interesting…" Crystal said.
"You, like, enemies with Optimus and the Autobots?" Shaggy asked.
"What? No, we're allies with the Cybertronians!" Crystal replied.
"Like, I never knew that…" Shaggy said.
"Now you know" Crystal stated.
Crystal and Shaggy stumbled upon The Minister's apartment. According to Crystal, all of his government agents live in the office while The Minister has his own luxury apartment. They wouldn't have got in if Crystal didn't snatch the spare keys from his office ages ago. The apartment was covered in portraits of The Minister and had some familiar Earth luxury: hot tubs, a water bed and a bar with drinks Shaggy never heard of. Crystal ignored all the luxury and went straight to the computer that was placed on the bar. When Shaggy looked at the screen, Crystal was looking at The Minister's emails.
"Like, should you be looking at The Minister's private emails?" Shaggy questioned.
"No, but I have a theory…" Crystal replied.
"What theory?" Shaggy asked.
"I think The Minister is working with the Cybermen…" Crystal turned to Shaggy.
"Like, what are Cybermen?" Shaggy wondered.
"Cybermen are mechanical beings aimed at one purpose: to upgrade" Crystal explained.
"Zoinks!" Shaggy exclaimed.
"I know, but that's only a theory anyway…" Crystal said.
Crystal turned back to the computer screen and continued to look for evidence for her theory. Shaggy just stood there, looking around the room. Crystal noticed what Shaggy was doing and sighed.
"Look, I know what you're going to ask: Why didn't we come and visit? But we couldn't Shaggy, The Minister shut down all missions or investigations to Earth after we revealed ourselves to you that day, we really want to visit, but The Minister wouldn't allow it…" Crystal said.
"Like, you took the question right out of my mouth, Crystal" Shaggy stated, doing his goofy laugh at the end.
Crystal couldn't help but do a little laugh but then she heard the computer beeping, she turned to see a message reading
It's time. Upgrading will commence. Activate the machine.
"Ha, I knew it; The Doctor will want to see this!" An ecstatic Crystal said.
Crystal ran out of the apartment, putting the computer in her arm, but the door opened to reveal The Minister, along with Cybermen surrounding Shaggy and Crystal.
"Zoinks, it's the Cybermen!" Shaggy exclaimed.
"That's a bit obvious, Shaggy…" Crystal stated.
The Cybermen pointed their arm blasters towards the two.
"Seize them" The Minister commanded.
