Shaggy made his way through the tunnel, flashlight in hand. It didn't appear to be a long tunnel but as he was scared as to what would be at the end, he was taking his time to be cautious and as prepared as he possibly could. "Like, I sure hope Scooby is okay." He mumbled quietly.

Scooby was as okay as you could be, being a dog walking down a creepy tunnel trying to find one of your best friends who had been possessed by an evil witch from decades ago. His fur was stood on end, the dog equivalent to goosebumps he imagined. Scooby was sniffing along the ground as he made his way through the tunnel. It was mostly just sand, dirt and rocks with the slight smell of saltwater from the sea that he could detect.

"Where do you think this leads Freddie?" Daphne asked, still holding onto Fred's arm as they made their way through the middle of the three tunnels within the cave. Fred flickered the flashlight around the tunnel, seeing nothing out of the ordinary. "I dunno Daph. I sure hope its nothing."

Shaggy was feeling apprehensive about what he would find at the end, but his mind was trailing off thinking about Velma. Where was she? Is she okay? Would he ever get the chance to tell her how he really feels about her? He shook his head at the last thought. He knew now wasn't the time to be thinking about his feelings for her, but it couldn't be helped. They had been friends for over a year now and he had only realised across the last few months about seeing her as more than a friend. What took him so long? Shaggy stopped in his tracks, being distracted from his thoughts about Velma by a strange growling/gurgling sound behind him. He slowly turned his head and pointed the flashlight behind him. He really hoped Scooby had gotten freaked out and decided to join him in his tunnel, but the chances of that were unlikely. "FROG CREATURE!" Shaggy screeched as his gaze finally met with the oversized amphibian that stood before him. "AHHH!" He screamed as he turned back around and bolted down the tunnel, the frog creature trying his best to keep up…

Scooby was faintly whimpering as he walked. He didn't like when he and Shaggy split up, it was on very rare occasions like this when they did but it didn't make it any easier. Shaggy was his best friend, his owner, and he knew this mystery wasn't just a bad guy in a mask like all the others before. What if something happened to Shaggy? What would he do then? Suddenly, he heard footsteps behind him. They didn't sound familiar enough to be Shaggy, or any other member of the gang for that matter. "Ruh roh." He cried, turning around and slightly twitching his eye. He knew exactly what he would find. Frog creature! "RAHHHHH!" he yelled, galloping away as fast as his paws could carry him, which was pretty fast considering all the practice he had running away from monsters…

Fred and Daphne's tunnel appeared to be shorter than Shaggy and Scooby's. They had been walking less time but were closer to the yellow glow at the end. "Looks like we're about to find out where this leads babe." Fred said, taking her hand and walking slightly faster than they were before. He was concerned at what was to come when they got to the end, Daphne however was more concerned with the darkness behind them. She turned her head every 20 seconds or so, just to give it the all clear. On the 4th time however, they weren't alone…

Shaggy reached the end of the tunnel, running so fast that his legs got tangled beneath him. He clawed at the air to keep his balance but was unsuccessful. Flying through the air at speed, he tumbled and lay face down in the dirty, sandy ground. He shook his head, sand particles flying everywhere as his shaggy hair flickered, reminiscent of a wet dog shaking. He paused in position for a moment, taking in his surroundings. He was still in the cave, but a much larger part of it, the heart of the cave if you like. Shaggy's eyes were darting across his environment, but he became interrupted by something hitting him full force. Unbeknownst to him, Scooby had emerged from behind, coming from one of three tunnels that were behind them, the routes they had taken separately earlier. "RAGGY!" Scooby exclaimed, when he finally managed to scramble off of Shaggy.
"Like Scooby Doo! We ended up in the same place!" Scooby licked the teenage hippie's face, gaining a head scratch in return before Shaggy climbed to his feet. "Ri was chased by a frog creature." Scooby declared, suddenly remembering the reason he had been charging through his tunnel.
"Wait…. I was too!" The two of them grew wide eyed when they realised.
"Rat means rheres two!"
"Like zoinks! We have to tell Fred and Daphne! If there's two frog creatures already, there's no telling how many there could be." Shaggy reached into the pocket of his brown, baggy trousers but as if on cue, before he could reach for his phone, Fred and Daphne appeared from the middle tunnel. "Shaggy and Scooby?" Daphne said, sounding confused as to how they all ended up there.
"What are you guys doing here?" Fred asked, taking in their surroundings.
"Scoob and I split up, we each took a tunnel each and I guess they all led here." Shaggy gestured to the tunnels that he and Scooby had just come running through minutes previously. Daphne looked around and turned her attention to the others. "Fred and I found a trapdoor at Trowburg's and ended up at the start of those tunnels. We took the middle."
"Rowburg's leads rhere?" Scooby questioned, raising an eyebrow as he spoke.
"That's right Scoob. Mrs Grubwort or Trowburg or whatever is a descendent of Wanda but she's harmless. Now we just have to figure out why the beach and the gas station are connected and what the hell this place is for." Fred explained to the group.

A/N- So I struggled to think of a way to write this chapter the way I wanted it to turn out so yeah lmao bit all over the place and I'm not creative enough to do it another way. Other chapters won't be so all over the place. Don't forget to leave a review- I don't mind if its bad or good.
