Back in Boomerland, the heroes gathered closely around the Chest of Demons as Gosnellon and Zargon faces them.
"I figured that the first thing you two decide to do is come and steal the chest." Vincent said.
"Of course, Mr. Van Ghoul" Gosnellon smirked. "You can hand over the Chest right now, or you can force us to make you give up the Chest the hard way."
"I don't think so." Scrappy replied as he crossed his arms defiantly.
"Yeah" Mudsy agreed. "Why force us to give up? We haven't even begun to fight! Battle even"
"Huh. So you won't give up the chest, huh?" Zargon asked.
"We'd rather be stuck here in this wasteland than surrender to you!" Augie exclaimed.
"Oh really?" Gosnellon smirked.
"Yeah" Augie exclaimed "You'd better get in that chest, buddy!"
"You asked for it" Gosnellon formed a ball of lighting and shot it right at Augie.
"Augie no" April pushed him out of the way.
Just then, the lightning ball struck April right into the chest, which sent April to be hit up against the wall and she was knocked out.
"April!" Mudsy, Skip and Augie ran over to her.
Gosnellon then grabbed the chest "Well we'd love to stay and chat, but we've got plans on Olympus!"
"So long, Mr. Van Ghoul" Zargon raised his hands and they were transported out of the quarters.
"They got away" Pericles remarked "And they got the chest too"
"April wake up!" Mudsy put his hands on her shoulders "Come on April, wake up"
April stirred a little.
"April!" Augie exclaimed.
April's face started to move as Elmo started to lick it.
"Oh..." April groaned. "What just happened?"
"April!" Mudsy hugged her "You're okay! I was worried sick!"
"So was I" Augie added.
April nodded before asking. "What just happened?"
"The other demons ran off with the chest" Googie said "And now they're going to release their evil friends and take over the universe"
"Oh no" April said. "We'd better get moving if we want to stop them from releasing their friends!"
"They said they were headed off to Olympus to throw off the gods" Augie said "We'd better get there if we want to stop them"
"But how are we supposed to get there?" Skip shrugged "We don't have some kind of magical powers to get us there"
"I'll have to see if there's anything in the book that can help." Vincent says. "In the meantime, you all better brace for any additional disasters caused by those demons."
Meanwhile, in the other timeline, the gang arrived at the Neptunes' show.
"Here we are gang, Club Barbera" Fred showed them the club.
"Come on, let's get inside" Velma told the others "The Neptune's are almost done"
"Daphne, you stay outside with the kids" Fred told his wife "We'll be inside getting the others"
"Sure thing, Freddy" said Daphne.
As Daphne left to take care of the kids, Velma suggested, "Shag, Scooby, how about you guys join Daphne in looking after the kids?"
"Like, good idea, Velma." Shaggy nodded. "I don't think we'll want her hands to be full."
"Yeah, Daphne could use a hand" Scooby added.
While Scooby and Shaggy walked over to Daphne and the kids, Fred and Velma went inside the club.
Inside the club, Fred and Velma went to find their seats.
"Do you see the seats?" Fred shouted to Velma.
"Yeah, there they are" Velma pointed to some empty seats "Come on!"
The duo soon reached their seats and settled in. They had arrived just in time too; the band was almost done with their last song.
Shelly sang into the microphone "...who's going to save the world? Who is going to save the days? From Ahab, crabs who steal, and eerie eels with evil rays?"
The band sang together "Who's going to talk like Curly, since Curly isn't here? Who's going to chase down villains and then turn around and run in fear?"
Biff then finished the song "Who's going to stand for justice, when bad guys break the law?
You know who I'm talkin' about, we're Clamhead, Shelley and Bubbles and Biff, but if you're catchin' a whiff of fish, it's Jabberjaw!"
The audience cheered with gusto as the song finished.
"Wow." Fred remarked as he and Velma clapped their hands.
"Bravo!" Velma whistled.
"Thank you Club Barbera" Shelly started blowing kisses to audience "Thank you! Thank you! Thank y-"
Jabberjaw grabbed Shelly and took her backstage when the curtains closed.
"Goodnight Boomerang City" Biff waved the audience before he walked backstage to join his friends.
Meanwhile, outside the club, Shaggy, Scooby and Daphne were looking after the kids.
"Boy, those Neptune's sure can bring down the house" asked Daphne.
"Yeah, I guess they can" Daphne remarked.
"It's mainly my mom's good looks and amazing vocal talents that keep the band going" Michelle remarked "I'm something of a vocalist, myself"
"Yeah right" Jack sarcastically said.
"Maybe you and I can perform a song together sometimes, Flim-Flam" Michelle smiled at Flim-Flam.
"Perhaps" Flim Flam replied nervously.
"It would be so romantic" Michelle sighed "Flim-Flam Jones and Michelle Wilson, singing a duet together. How romantic"
During this time, Shaggy and Scooby were thinking about the asteroid and how to deal with it.
"How are we going to stop the asteroid and the meteor at the same time, Scoob?" Shaggy asked Scooby "And without going back in time again?"
"Rye don't know" Scooby shrugged "But it's coming fast"
Scooby and Shaggy thought about what to do about the asteroids without getting sent back in time again. They had to think of something.
As he tries to think of something, Scooby's paw gripped the magic paintbrush.
"Scooby-Doo, what's with you?" Shaggy asked his dog.
"Hmmm..." Scooby thought for a while.
While Scooby thought of something, Fred and Velma arrived outside with the Neptune's.
"Guys" Shelly exclaimed "We're back!"
"Ah, I see that you guys had brought down the house." Daphne said.
"Courtesy of yours truly" Shelly boasted.
"Hey guys!" Jabberjaw waved to them "So what's this about an asteroid headed for us?"
"An asteroid?" Bubbles asked "I'll bet it's pretty"
"Guys listen" Daphne said "That is not just any asteroid that is the Gosnell Asteroid! The landing of that asteroid and its preceding meteor shower will cause doomsday!"
"Doomsday?" Everyone shouted.
"As in the end of the world?" Clamhead asked.
Daphne nodded her head reluctantly.
"Oh no" Jabberjaw exclaimed. "What are we going to do?"
"Come on, Scooby-Doo, you've probably thought of something" Shaggy said to his dog.
Scooby snapped his "fingers" "R'ive got it!"
"What is it?" Everyone asked.
"This is the answer to our problems" Scooby showed the magic paintbrush.
"A paintbrush?" Shelly put a hand on her hip "Seriously? This is no time for arts and crafts, Scooby. The world is going to be destroyed and you want to paint?"
"I don't know, Shell" Bubbles said "Maybe we can paint a pretty picture before the planet perishes"
"Like, this isn't just a paintbrush, gang." Shaggy says.
"Nope" Flim-Flam said "This is a magic paintbrush! When someone draws with it, all his wishes come true"
"Yeah right" Shelly rolled her eyes "And I'm Mariah Carey"
"You are?" Bubbles asked Shelly.
"No Bubbles, I meant that I don't believe them" Shelly said.
"Well, in that case, see for yourselves" Daphne said before Shaggy nodded at Scooby, who uses the paintbrush to produce a hamburger.
"Well I'll be, he just used that brush to create a real hamburger" Jabberjaw remarked as he ate the burger.
"Okay, now I believe you" Shelly pursed her lips.
"How is that tiny brush going to help us?" Jack asked Scooby "That asteroid is probably bigger than the castle in Boomerang City"
"Not only does this paintbrush produce magic paint, it shoots thinner as well" Scooby shot thinner at a nearby pole which dissolved.
"Thinner?" Velma asked "That dissolves stuff! My theory is that if we shoot a large gush of thinner at the asteroids, we can dissolve them before they hit Earth"
"Like, now that you mentioned it, it just may be our ticket to stop that asteroid." Shaggy said.
"Yeah, that's the key to saving the world" Velma said "The question now is, what can we make that can probably shoot that much thinner that'll stop an asteroid, and more importantly, how do we shoot it without destroying other planets and stuff?"
"Hmmm..." Everyone thought for a while.
Meanwhile, back in Doomsville, the Dark Phantom and the Kid Falcon have found their lair destroyed by the massive explosion with no sign of their opponents.
"Sir, they're gone" said Kid Falcon "I think they died in the explosion"
"Good riddance" said the Dark Phantom "They never should've betrayed me"
"Right" The Kid nodded. "Now the question is what our next step is?"
"Hmmm..." The Dark Phantom thought for a while. "First off, we should find Vincent Van Devil and see if he can teleport us to that loser-phantom's world."
"Ah, yes." The Kid said. "Then, when we get there, we can show that loser whose boss!"
"Precisely" The Dark Phantom grinned as they head off to the evil warlock's castle.
During the trip, the Dark Phantom added, "You know, Falcon, I never thought I would say this, but you seem more reliable than Brenda as a matter a fact."
"I am very flattered" Kid Falcon said.
Kid Falcon and Dark Phantom walked over to Vincent Van Devil's castle to see if the warlock was home. Little did they know they were secretly being followed by a mysterious person?
"He had better be here" said the Dark Phantom.
Dark Phantom banged the gargoyle shaped knocker three times.
There was no response and the Dark Phantom repeated what he did.
"Now where the devil is that warlock?" The Dark Phantom asked as he and the Kid waited.
"You know him, master." The Kid sighed. "He's the type that's always late. I can even bet that he will be late for his own funeral."
The Dark Phantom nodded as they begin to hear footsteps coming from inside.
A slot on the door slid open and there was a pair of eyes looking at them.
"Who is it?" asked the person inside.
"It's the Dark Phantom and Kid Falcon" said Dark Phantom "Let us in at once! We are here to discuss my arch-enemy/cheap rip-off, the Funky Phantom"
"Come on in" said Vincent Van Devil.
The door opened and both Kid Falcon and Dark Phantom walked inside, carrying Destroyermutt's remains. Secretly, a shadowy figure followed them inside right before the door closed.
"So what's this about this, Funky Phantom character?" Van Devil asked the villains.
The duo wasted no time explaining their run-in with their evil twins.
"...and that's why you are going to help us track down this phantom" the Dark Phantom finished.
"Very interesting" said Van Devil "I'll be able to cast a spell that'll make your Dog Blunder more powerful. As for your doppelgängers, let's find out where they are"
Van Devil took out a crystal ball and used his magic to locate our heroes. An image of Mudsy and the other protagonists with Vincent came up on the ball.
"I don't believe it!" Van Devil exclaimed "There is another me! How could this be possible? Unless...there from another dimension"
"That explains why they look like us" Kid Falcon remarked.
"Indeed" Van Devil nodded. There was some silence in the room after he made the remark.
At that same time, Vincent was still searching for some way to get to Olympus.
"Come on Mr. Van Ghoul" Scrappy said "You must have found something that can get us to Olympus in time to warn the gods"
"I just had." Vincent replied after flipping through the pages.
"What is it?" April asked.
Vincent read the pages "You have to go to the Underworld, make it to the doorway that leads to the Stairway to Heaven and then you'll find the Gate to Olympus. Hopefully, you will find the demons before they take over the world"
"Okay I see, you want us to go to find the gods" Cassidy said "But how do you expect us to get there? Take the bus or something?"
Vincent pulled out a map from his cloak "This map will guide you throughout your journey, should you ever lose your way"
"Alright" Scrappy nodded as Googie took the map from Vincent.
"But how are we supposed to get to Hades?" Cassidy asked Vincent "Take the bus or something?"
"No need to worry" said Vincent "I can use my magic to transport you guys to Hades. You'd better go back to the others and tell them you're leaving"
The heroes ran upstairs to tell their friend they were about to go on their big, epic journey.
