Shaggy followed Lucy as they left the library. Lucy climbed into her truck and didn't even wait for Shaggy to follow before she drove off. Shaggy followed and caught up quickly. He watched as the town disappeared from view. Instead pine trees now lined the road. Lucy turned left and Shaggy figured this was where she lived. It was definitely out of the way. Lucy stopped the truck and jumped out Shaggy followed behind her.

"Is this where you live?"

"Yes, but come onto my property without permission and you're dead got it?" Lucy asked with cold eyes.

"Yes," Shaggy replied nervously.

"March" Lucy ordered pointing to the door.

Shaggy obeyed and went inside with Lucy watching his every moment like a hawk. Once they were inside Lucy closed the door and directed them to the table still watching carefully.

"What do you want with me?" Lucy asked sitting across from Shaggy and Scooby.

"To talk," Shaggy said again.

"Something's wrong with him" Scooby interjected quickly seeing Lucy's harsh gaze.

"Really?" Lucy asked as if she didn't believe them.

"I think you and I should talk alone" Scooby suggested.

"But-" Shaggy started.

"March" Lucy ordered sending them back outside.

She led them to the barn and pulled open the doors. The smell of hay was strong in the barn. Lucy grabbed Shaggy by the arm roughly pulling him inside. The horses were calm since they'd been around all sorts of people. Lucy stopped in front of one of the stalls and a grey horse with a white stripe on its face greeted her. Shaggy noticed this horse had wings.

"Is that a Pegasus?"

"Yes his name is Styx"

"Why'd you name it sticks?"

"He's named after the river Styx"

"Oh"

Lucy used a rope to tie Shaggy to the stall door.

"Don't move" she ordered.

"Why?"

"If you spook Styx he'll bite you. He doesn't like strangers" Lucy said before leaving Shaggy with the unpredictable Pegasus.

Shaggy found he was sad as Lucy walked out shutting the doors behind her. Shaggy glanced at Styx who snorted at him.

"Is she always that way?" Shaggy asked.

"Yes"

"Did you just talk?" Shaggy asked.

"Well do you see anyone else?" Styx asked in a gruff voice.

"You wouldn't really bite me would you?"

"Yes I bite people I don't like "

"Uh, you don't like me?"

"Mistress Lucy doesn't like you "

"I wish she did"

Meanwhile back in the house. Lucy stared at Scooby with a bitter harshness.

"Is there a reason he's stalking me?" Lucy asked coldly.

"He can't help himself "

"I don't buy it"

"He was shaking when you went into the library he didn't want to follow you but it's like he had to " Scooby explained.

"Still don't believe you "

"Please whether you believe me or not something is wrong and we've got to help him" Scooby pleaded desperately.

"If I do this he'll leave me alone?"

"Yes," Scooby said even though he wasn't sure himself.

"Fine" Lucy said rolling her eyes and going outside once more.

Scooby followed Lucy to the barn. They both froze when Lucy opened the door. Shaggy was pacing in circles and Styx was simply watching.

"Ahem" Lucy coughed displeased with the sight before her.

Shaggy spun around wincing as the thick rope constricted burning his wrist. He stood absolutely still waiting for Lucy to speak.

"What are you doing?"

"I was waiting for you " Shaggy answered.

"I was also waiting for you mistress Lucy" Styx added.

Lucy gave no response she walked over and untied Shaggy before letting Styx out of his stall and mounting him.

"Come on" she ordered.

"M-me r-r-ride him?"

"No, you're riding Delphi " Lucy replied gesturing to a cream colored pegasus.

"She won't bite will she?"

"I won't" Delphi replied walking out of her stall.

"What about me?" Scooby asked.

"You can ride with Shaggy"

"Where are we going?" Shaggy asked.

"To visit my friend Anna" Lucy explained before clicking her tongue and urging Styx forward.

"Why?"

"She'll help us"

"With what?"

"You" Lucy replied before Styx flew off.

"Hold on," Delphi said.

Shaggy held on for dear life as Delphi took off at top speed. Shaking slightly he looked around him to see trees quickly change into the desert which then morphed into blue ocean and finally mountains. Lucy ordered both pegasuses down and they softly landed in the middle of the forest just outside a log house. The door to the house opened to reveal a red-haired cupid dressed in a long blue sweater, jeans, and grey boots. Lucy dismounted Styx only to be tackled by the other cupid which Shaggy guessed was Anna.

"Lucy it's been too long what brings you by?" Anna asked as Shaggy and Scooby dismounted Delphi.

"I have a problem "

"Oh really is it a centaur?"

"No"

"Minotaur?"

"No"

"Did Cerberus wander off again?"

"No"

"Then what is it?"

"Him" Lucy replied pointing to Shaggy.

"I don't follow, " Anna said in confusion.

"Let's go inside and I'll explain "

One explanation later.

"Okay, Lucy I need you to leave the room for a second" Anna ordered.

"Gladly"

Shaggy watched Lucy leave with a pained expression which Anna noticed.

"Okay, Shaggy I'm going to do an exam" she explained.

"But why?"

"Just trust me"

"Okay, what do I need to do?"

"Tell me what you think about Lucy"

"Well she's really pretty a-and she's direct"

"Tell me about when you first saw her"

"Well it was normal I passed her on my way out of the store"

"And?"

"Scooby said she smelled strange"

"Did you smell it too?"

"Yes"

"What was it?"

"Roses, chocolate and something else that I can't figure out"

"Ambrosia that's what it was"

"Oh"

"I think I know what's wrong with you "

"What is it?"

"Just your instincts "

"I don't understand"

"You really don't know much, do you? Lucy whether you like it or not is your destined match"

"But I don't want to bother her"

"I know drink this it will help, " Anna said tossing Shaggy a bottle of a blue misty liquid.

"What is this?"

"Oh just drink it" Anna demanded her eyes flashing red.

Shaggy drank the strange liquid quickly. It burned like fire going down his throat.

"Now you're going to be tired when it kicks in so you'll all have to stay here and I'll see how you're doing in the morning "

Anne led Shaggy to a spare room. Shaggy's feet were dragging as he entered the room only to collapse on the bed out cold. After leaving Shaggy Anna brought Lucy back inside to inform her of the news.

"You've gotta be kidding me" Lucy cried upset.

"Well, I'm surprised you didn't realize what was going on since-"

"DON'T YOU DARE FINISH THAT SENTENCE ANNA"

"Okay okay chill out Lucy now I've given him a potion that will suppress the need to constantly be around you but it doesn't stop everything " Anna explained.

"Great" Lucy groaned falling onto the couch.
