Chapter 2
The Mystery Machine was pulled to the front of the inn. Michael got out and so did the gang.
KITT's scanner flashed back and forth as he watched the gang, still feeling a bit irked that he had to help them. After more pleasantries were exchanged most of the group went into the inn to check in. Only two stayed behind, the thin man with the green shirt and the dog.
"Well Scoob, why don't we check and see if we can find some food, our rations are getting pretty bare."
"Right Raggy." Replied the overly large dog.
KITT scanned the dog. Had the dog just spoke. He checked over his sensors and did a diagnostic to check. Sure enough everything checked out. He did hear the dog speak. As Shaggy and Scooby walked past KITT Shaggy looked into him.
"Wow Scoob, check this out, looks like some kind of spaceship."
"Reah, a race rip."Scooby giggled.
"Check it out Scoob, he's got a tv in there. I wonder what kind of stations he gets?"
"Rorts Rossibly." Scooby answered.
"Yeah, it is a sports car isn't it." Shaggy laughed.
KITT inwardly sighed. Though he was used to remarks about his interior, he didn't need a dog giggling about it. His sensor then picked up Michael heading over. Michael saw Scooby and Shaggy looking into KITT and smiled.
"Like what you see guys?" Michael asked."
"Sure do. You get tv in there, that's groovy man" Shaggy said smiling.
Fred, Velma and Daphne walked over.
"Come on guys, we got a two rooms. Girls can have one, us guys will have the other."Fred stated. Michael walked to the back of KITT who popped the trunk. Michael took out his duffle bag, and walked to the others.
As the group walked into the inn they headed up the stairs. Scooby and Shaggy stayed a bit behind.
"Leave it to us Scoob to stay in the creepiest place in town."
"Ray, reepy." Scooby said with a tinge of fear in his voice. He looked around and caught the sight of a shadow moving. Which naturally scared him.
"RIKES!" He yelped as he jumped on Shaggy's back. Michael and Velma turned to see Shaggy carrying scooby.
"It's only a shadow Scooby, old places are usually like that." Velma sternly answered.
"Is he always this jumpy?" Michael asked.
"Yeah, save for when you give him a scooby snack." Velma replied.
"Scooby snack?" Shaggy and Scooby stated in unison and looked at each other.
"I don't want to know." Michael said as he shook his head.
The group split off into their rooms and got situated. As they met up again they decided to check out the town, for something to do.
"Mr. Knight, would you like to join us?" Daphne said.
"Sure, sounds great." Michael replied as he walked over and took Daphne by the hand. Fred had a bit of a look of jealously on his face, but it only lasted a moment.
"Maybe we can find some place to eat." Shaggy stated while rubbing his stomach.
"Rah, rom race ro reat."Scooby replied, following Shaggy's actions.
"Ok, ok, guys don't make a scene, I saw a nice little restaurant up the road." Michael smiled as the group headed out. "I just have to check something in my car, I'll catch up ok."
"Ok Michael." The group said. As they began to walk off Michael ran over to KITT and got in.
"You ok buddy?"
"Yeah Michael, might I ask about how long we are going to stay in the same vicinity as that talking mammal?" KITT replied dryly.
"KITT that isn't nice. The dog is ok, bit of a coward but ok."
"Easy for you to say, you won't smell like dog and be shedding for days if he sits on you."
KITT responded.
"KITT find me everything you can on this group, I talked a bit to Fred, he says they solve mysteries, their name is Mystery Inc."
"Alright Michael, but it will take some time."
" Ok, I'm going with the gang up the road to the restaurant. Find a nice cool parking spot and let me know when you find something."
"Alright Michael." KITT replied as Michael got out. He turned bumped into Velma knocking her glasses off. .
"Oh, sorry," Michael bent down and picked up her glasses and handed them over, "I thought you went with the others."
"I stayed behind. I saw the inside of your car and since I'm into science I thought I'd ask you about it."Velma replied while she put her glasses on.
"Shouldn't we go meet up with the others?" Michael asked.
"They will be at the restaurant, and if I know Shaggy and Scooby, they will be there a while." Velma smiled.
"Alright." Michael warmly replied. KITT opened the doors for them both.
Velma climbed inside and looked around in aw at the array of monitors, LCD's and readouts.
"Jinkies, this looks like something out of one of those science fiction movies." She replied.
"You can kind of say that." Michael smiled.
Velma continued to look around the cabin as Michael started KITT up.
"Mr Knight, what is this for?" Velma asked as she pointed to KITT's voice box."
"It's just a little computer, something to help me drive on long road trips." Michael replied.
"How can you afford all of this, what do you do?"
"Well, I work for the Foundation for Law and Government."
"Wow, so your with the police." Velma inquired.
"We work with the police, we go after criminals that operate above the law." Michael stated.
"So this Foundation, they own this car, and you just drive it around?"
"Well it's more then a car, it's my partner." Michael stated.
"And more then just a small computer that helps you drive." KITT stated. Velma looked to the voice box in shock.
"It.. It talks, this car talks?" She stated, she smiled and looked to the voice box.
"Velma, meet KITT, KITT Velma." Michael laughed as he pulled out.
"Pleasure to meet you Velma. I am the Knight Industries Two Thousand, KITT if you prefer" KITT said in gentle tone, knowing from experience how some take his ability to talk as a large shock.
"T..the pleasure is mine. Wow, an artificial inelegance in a car. I knew it was possible, I just didn't think anyone would have been able to pull it off without the proper resources."
"Well Knight Industries and FLAG have the resources."
"KITT I have so many questions for you, do you mind?" Velma asked happily.
"Not at all Velma." KITT warmly stated.
As the two drove down the hill to the restaurant the Velma continued asking KITT about himself, what processors he used. Though on some things KITT couldn't answer because it was classified. He liked talking to someone who was so knowledgeable about science. KITT was even able to get more information out of her about Mystery Inc. As they parked Velma got out and smiled.
"Thanks for the interesting chat KITT."
"Anytime Velma." KITT replied.
As the two got out they caught up with the rest of the gang.
