Meanwhile, over at somewhere else...
"Cone Castle Commercial, take one!" A stage hand's voice was heard.
Some music played as ladies dressed up like ice cream comes began to dance as a song played.
"We're Cone Castle cones, And we're healthy for you, Run to your grocer and pick up a few mixing grown-up flavors into kids' ice cream~" The women sang.
"Liver~" Woman 1 sang.
"Onion~" Woman 2 sang.
"Broccoli~" Woman 3 sang.
"We're a gourmet lover's dream~" The women all sang together.
"Hold it! Hold it!" A man's voice called out, and soon, he was shown, in a white suit, coming onto the set. "Pardon me for halting the festivities, but I distinctly remember paying for a buttered Brussels sprout."
"Ooh, um, sorry, I'm here," The fourth woman said as she rushed over before butter slid from on top of her costume and fell in front of his feet. "Oopsie daisy."
"Oh, for heaven's sake," The man glared as he cleaned up the mess. "Can someone please manage this mess?"
His cell phone then began to ring.
"And you there, your cone is crumpled," The man continued until he answered his phone. "Yes?"
"Mr. Curdles, it's me, Amos. Remember when you told me to call if any more students arrived?" The groundskeeper said on the other line. "Well, I saw a couple of kids, a dog, and a possum."
"A bunch of kids, a dog, and a possum, eh?" The suited man replied. "Whirlen must be awfully desperate if he's enrolling animals."
"Perhaps they'll get another visit from the you-know-what," Amos replied. "He's showing up almost nightly these days and getting bolder each time. I'd hate to think what could happen tonight."
"I'm sure you'll let me know," Mr. Curdles hung up with a smirk and walked off until he stepped in something. "Will no one dab up this dairy?"
At the school, Madelyn was showing the group and the Teen Angels around the school.
"They say Lord O'Flannery practiced real magic, and that he had many secrets built into the castle walls," Madelyn told them. "Legend has it that he even conjured up a griffin to protect it, and housed the monster in that old tower. called the Griffin's Roost."
"Like, why doesn't Whirlen Merlin knock it down, and put up a student union or something?" Shaggy suggested with a laugh.
"Zatanna told us that he's hoping to restore it someday, but until then, it's off-limits." Taffy replied.
"She's right," Madelyn nodded in agreement. "His career goes all the way back to when he was a kid. He started with neighborhood puppet shows. Oh, and over here is his trophy case. This is Whirlen Merlin when he was onstage. Isn't he awesome?"
"I had no idea you were so into magic, Madelyn." Daphne smiled.
"At least you've finally settled on something," Velma crossed her arms to her sister. "Where were you last semester, clown college?"
"Yeah, so I've done some soul searching," Madelyn giggled nervously. "Not everyone is born with a mystery book in her hand, Velma."
"So, how does Zatanna know Whirlen?" Brianna asked.
"They went to Magic School together and studied magic together before she discovered her own powers," Brandie replied. "You could say that they were the best of friends."
"Well, I think magic is really cool." Fred commented.
"I've always been fascinated by how it's done," Madelyn smiled. "Just as Velma loves to solve mysteries. I love to uncover the secrets of magic, and this is the perfect school for that."
"I think I'm gonna like it here." Cindy smiled back to Madelyn.
"What about that griffin?" Velma asked. "Mom said-"
"Mom's just dramatic," Madelyn told her sister. "It's a silly old myth."
They soon heard the banging of a gong which startled them at first. They looked up to then see Whirlen and Zatanna sitting together, smirking.
"That's our dinner bell." Zatanna informed.
"Alakazam!" Whirlen added.
There was then a magic poof as the two appeared in front of them after disappearing from where they were.
"And because you're our special guests of honor, I've asked the chef..." Whirlen said before making Marlon appear.
"That's me." Marlon smiled and waved.
"To prepare a royal feast." Whirlen then concluded.
"A feast?!" Scooby replied.
"Like, I think they said the magic word." Shaggy added.
They soon went into the dining hall to have something to eat.
"The guests of honor almost outnumber the students." Velma commented.
"And where are the teachers?" Fred asked.
"A lot of them left thanks to that scary old griffin," Crystal frowned as she sat with her daughters and niece. "Which no one has ever seen, of course." she then added with a shy smile to Whirlen.
"Before we start, how about a little dinner lighting?" Whirlen suggested. "Z, would you like to do the honors?"
Zatanna clapped her hands, making the candles blow out, worrying everyone, but she made the candles came on from the tables.
"How soon until we can call you 'Aunt Zatanna'?" Taffy asked.
"Maybe later." Zatanna smirked playfully.
Brandie giggled to that.
"Far out," Shaggy commented. "Dinner by candlelight."
"How romantic." Madelyn smiled to Shaggy.
"Shaggy is kind of cute." Brenda whispered to her friends.
"Do you have a crush on him?" Dee Dee asked.
"A little bit." Brenda blushed.
"Ooh~" Dee Dee and the Dare sisters giggled to that as Brenda blushed.
"Let's eat!" Scooby suggested as he tied his napkin into his collar and took off the cloche only to see white doves.
"Gee, Scoob, I think it's a little under cooked." Shaggy commented before the two of them laughed together.
"Do not worry, never fear," Whirlen told them before clapping his hands. "Your favorite dish will now appear."
Cindy opened her cloche and drooled over what she was served. "Chicken wings and cheese sticks! Yummy!" she then beamed.
"Pinch me, Scooby-Doo, extra cheesy cheese pizza with a side of pickles." Shaggy beamed.
Scooby lifted his cloche and saw nothing at first before doing it again and beamed at what he saw. "Scooby Snacks in cherry sauce and whipped cream."
"Looks like something from an IHOP commercial." Harold commented.
Scooby dug into it and came out, looking like Santa Claus and licked the cherry sauce and whipped cream.
"Wow, Whirlen and Zatanna, you're amazing." Trent smiled as he opened his cloche to find pork chops, corn casserole, and mashed potatoes.
"They sure are." Brianna agreed as she had a Chicken Caesar salad.
"Aww..." Whirlen smiled to them.
"I cooked it." Marlon muttered as he ate his own dinner.
They all soon heard thunder crashing which startled them a bit. They then saw a shadowed figure going past the window.
"Zowie! What was that?" Taffy gasped.
"I-I-I don't know, and I don't want to find out either." Brenda replied.
Stacie soon barked angrily while standing up beside Ella's feet on the floor. The others began to feel scared, and the door soon opened to show a hooded figure as lightning flashed outside and there seemed to be a storm brewing right outside.
"It's a devil of a night out there," The figure said once it was realized that he was Amos as he took off his hood while coming inside. "The kind of night that invites ghosts and goblins and other visitors."
"Uh, Miss Rumblebuns? Is it okay if some of us go back to our rooms?" A boy asked.
"I suppose so." Alma replied.
The students then quickly went back to their rooms. Alma glanced to the students as they dashed away.
"Hey, Ella, can I sit with you and your friends?" The blonde girl asked.
"Sure, Trixie, go ahead." Ella smiled.
Trixie then smiled back as she sat next to Ella. Shaggy was then going to take another bite of his pizza.
"Come on, Shaggy, while everyone is eating, I wanna some you something special." Madelyn said to the cowardly teen.
"Like, now?" Shaggy asked.
"Yes, while the moon is still out," Madelyn smiled. "I promise you're going to find it very, very exciting."
"You know, Madelyn, I find this pizza very, very, very exciting." Shaggy replied as he was about to eat his pizza.
"Come on!" Madelyn told him, dragging him away from the table.
Scooby ate the pizza with a smile and was about to eat his Scooby Snack, but Shaggy dragged him as well, but luckily he ate it beforehand.
"We better follow them to make sure that nothing bad happens." Dee Dee suggested.
"Good idea," Taffy agreed. "Hey, Justine? You wanna come with us?"
"Go somewhere with the Teen Angels?!" Justine gasped excitedly. "Yes, yes, yes!"
"Shh... Come on then." Taffy smiled.
Justine smiled back as she came to follow The Teen Angels.
They all then walked around a mountain.
"Are you sure you wanna go out in the dark?" Shaggy asked Madelyn.
"Y-Yeah, it's kinda spooky." Brenda agreed with him.
"Amos the groundskeeper is always out after dark." Madelyn smiled.
"Yeah, well, that dude's totally spooky too." Shaggy replied.
"What I wanna show is something that was brought here with the castle over two centuries ago." Madelyn told them.
Scooby looked around as he felt a little startled as something fly in the dark sky.
"Hurry, guys, it's right around the bend." Madelyn told them.
Scooby then caught up with Shaggy and the girls. They soon came to what almost looked like a natural landmark.
"Here we are," Madelyn told them. "I found a picture of this sundial on one of the castle walls."
The clouds moved from the full moon and it soon shined down onto the sundial.
"When the moon is full and you twist it like so..." Madelyn told them as the gems glowed from the moonlight and she moved the sundial which made it move underground along with the pillars around them, and something new came out. "That's Seamus O'Flannery: the man who brought the castle over here from Ireland." she then added.
"Wow... Like, dig that crazy toothpick." Shaggy commented.
"Shaggy, that's the magic staff used to summon and control the griffin." Dee Dee told him.
"I thought you said the griffin was a myth?" Shaggy replied.
"I didn't want the others to be frightened," Madelyn said to him. "I'm telling you because you're brave."
"Rave? Raggy? Rave?" Scooby replied before laughing.
Shaggy firmly pouted to his best friend.
"Ahem! Sorry." Scooby smiled nervously.
"Like, what's all this gruesome graffiti?" Shaggy asked, shining his flashlight below the wall.
"It says, 'Winged protector, arise and guard this castle'." Madelyn read aloud.
Everyone soon heard a roaring sound and they turned around to see that it was the griffin.
"It's the griffin!" Brenda cried out.
"Don't look now, but I think it's arisen." Shaggy yelped.
"What are we gonna do? I don't wanna get eaten!" Brenda cried out as she held Shaggy's arm.
Shaggy glanced to Brenda as she held onto him and he looked a bit bashful to that. Scooby backed into something which soon opened a secret door right behind Shaggy, Brenda, and Madelyn which showed a set of stairs below them.
"Wow! Way to go, Scooby!" Justine said even though that was accidental.
"Now let's get out of here!" Dee Dee suggested.
The group then ran away from the griffin who was coming after them.
"I have an idea, Brandie," Taffy told her sister. "Brenda, Dee, cover us."
Brenda and Dee Dee nodded as Brandie and Taffy went behind the trees.
"Ready?" Taffy asked.
"Ready!" Brandie told her.
The Dare sisters used their magic to change into a different look like they were now magicians. Taffy had on a white button-up shirt, black pants, a black tailcoat, white gloves, black shoes, a top hat, a black and red cape and a white mask. Brandie had white button-up shirt, a blue tailcoat, blue stockings, a top hat, white gloves, blue heels, and a white mask.
"Wow, not bad." Brandie smiled.
"I thought you might like it," Taffy smiled back. "This'll be perfect whenever we're around Zatanna and Uncle John in the future."
"Let's go help our friends." Brandie suggested.
"Right!" Taffy replied.
The Dare sisters then went to help out, using their new magical powers they learned about not too long ago.
The others were still running away. Shaggy grabbed Brenda's arm so she could catch up to them.
"Follow a set of strange stairs... Why not?" Brenda muttered to herself.
The griffin was still after them, but was now stuck, unable to get them as it was stuck in a bubble.
"Yes!" Brandie beamed.
The griffin shrieked before trying to break out.
"That won't hold him for long, but we might as well do what we can to help the others." Taffy said to her sister.
"You said it." Brandie agreed.
"Wow! Thanks, guys." Brenda said.
"No problem." Taffy replied.
"Oh, Uncle John will be so proud..." Brandie smiled. "...Do you think he's here?"
"I'm sure he is if Zatanna's here." Taffy smirked playfully.
The griffin soon managed to get out of the bubble.
"Hey, it's cool that you didn't like the bubble; I've got something even better." Taffy replied as she pulled out her wand from her cape, and she then said a magic word which summoned a pair of giant hands which then grabbed the griffin.
"That's amazing." Dee Dee smiled.
The griffin shrieked louder and louder while struggling.
"Thank you, thank you, we'll be here all week!" Taffy laughed as she stood with Brandie.
Brandie laughed and bowed for the heck of it
"Great... Now let's get out of here." Shaggy gulped.
"Get out while you still can!" Brandie and Taffy told them.
"No problem!" Brenda replied.
"Through here!" Shaggy called out.
The others were going through the branches, still running away.
"Good thinking, Shaggy!" Madelyn replied.
"Like, who's thinking?!" Shaggy asked her.
The griffin was trying to get the group as they were running away.
Meanwhile the rest of the group was walking around the school.
"Did you see how Whirlen Merlin made that dessert appear out of nowhere?" Cindy smiled to the others.
"Not really," Fred replied. "I was watching Zatanna and Crystal."
"All they did was point." Daphne told him.
"Honestly, Freddy..." Brianna sighed.
"It's the way they did it, so effortlessly." Fred defended.
"I can point too!" Daphne glared.
"Usually when you do, you knock my glasses off." Velma told her.
"Easy, Velma, she hasn't done that in at least an hour." Fred replied.
"Ha, ha, very funny, Scarf Boy." Daphne smirked.
Fred narrowed his eyes to that.
"Yo!" Sledgehammer called out as he came out of Cindy's pocket and came on top of her head. "I hear people in trouble!"
Everyone looked out of the window to see the others running away from the griffin as Taffy and Brandie were protecting them.
"It's the griffin!" Shaggy and Brenda cried out.
"Nothing up my sleeves." Taffy said.
"I think I have something up mine though." Brandie said before magical scarves flew out of her sleeves and began to tie up the griffin in the air.
The griffin then screeched and tried to break out of the scarves.
"Try to break out of that." Brandie retorted.
"Oh, my gosh! There it is!" A boy cried out.
"That's right, Daddy, I told you it was real!" A girl added as she was talking on her cell phone.
"Whoa!" Trixie and Ella gasped.
"Is that a...?" Leshawna asked.
"Yep," Leshaniqua told her cousin. "It's a griffin."
"Don't worry, my fair Leshawna," Harold said as he got into a fighting stance. "I'll make sure that that griffin doesn't get you."
"Uh, if you say so," Leshawna said. "Man, I bet Leonard Rotevele would have a field day with this."
Harold did a couple of fighting poses and accidently hit his arm. "Ow, ow, ow!"
Leshawna just rolled her eyes to this.
"Holy, Houdini!" Whirlen gasped as he looked from a window.
"Open sesame, open sesame!" Shaggy cried out as they ran to the door, but nothing happened.
"Open sesame now!" Scooby begged.
Fred and Trent were opening the door as Daphne and Brianna stood in front of the door.
"This way, guys!" Daphne called out.
"Hurry!" Brianna added.
They soon all ran inside with the griffin chasing them. The others ran inside and Velma soon pulled the lever to shut out the griffin. The griffin flew into the bars and shrieked as it had been defeated that night. A fireball shot at the griffin which soon made it fly off into the night.
"I didn't do that, did you?" Taffy asked her sister.
"Wasn't me, Sis." Brandie replied.
"Was it you, Taffy?" Dee Dee then asked.
"No, it wasn't me." Taffy replied.
"Then who was it?" Brandie wondered.
"I'm impressed, girls, you've really developed since I took you under my wing." A familiar blonde man appeared.
"Uncle John!" Brandie and Taffy beamed before running to the man and hugging him.
"Like, who's the scary dude?" Shaggy asked.
"Relax, Shaggy," Brenda told him. "That's just Taffy and Brandie's uncle, John Constantine."
"John Constantine?" Shaggy and Scooby asked.
"Charmed." John said as he came inside with his twin nieces.
"John?" Whirlen asked.
"Hello, Whirlen," John replied. "You should've called me earlier about a griffin attacking your school."
"Well, I, um..." Whirlen stammered.
"Oh, don't let it get to you, old man," John replied. "I guess you couldn't have expected it to come out like this like whenever I have to channel demons."
"But I'm not old, I'm only 27." Whirlen defended.
"You know that's not what I mean." John replied.
"Oh." Whirlen said.
"I like the new outfits, girls," John said to his nieces. "They suit you."
"Thanks." Taffy smiled.
"John Constantine, I've read a lot about you." Trixie said.
"Who is this then?" John asked.
"This is mine and Marlon's niece: Trixie," Whirlen introduced. "Her mother's told me that she's recently discovered her own gift of magic after facing Migmar Magma from the circus."
"It's very nice to meet you, Mr. Constantine, sir." Trixie said.
"Nice to meet you too," John replied. "I guess they call you 'Magic Trixie' back home, huh?"
"Maybe someday," Trixie smiled. "Migmar Magma hated me at first since I was a little kid, but since I wanted to learn magic to make people happy, we became friends, and he talked my mother into letting me come to school here, so we can work together someday."
"Yes, someday." John chuckled to that himself.
