"Man, this is bigger than the school's library." Cindy commented.

"Over here, guys," Madelyn said as she showed a book she had. "I was reading about Lord O'Flannery. He used a special magic staff to summon the griffin and control it."

"Where is this magic staff?" Velma asked her sister.

"Lord O'Flannery had it placed in his tomb, which is on an island right here in Shadow Lake," Madelyn told them. "It's real close."

"That's the same direction the griffin came from." Fred smiled.

"You won't wanna be going there, my friends," Amos said as he came out from the shadows. "What that fancy book won't tell you is when Lord O'Flannery came from Ireland, with him came his clan's banshee."

"Banshee? Like, that's a good thing, right?" Shaggy replied.

Everyone shook their heads to that.

"Shaggy, a banshee is a hideous female ghost whose wailing dooms whoever hears it." Cindy explained.

"The little lady is right." Amos agreed.

"Not listening~" Scooby said as he put on earmuffs. "La, la, la, la~"

"Legend says the banshee wailed over Lord O'Flannery as he breathed his last breath," Amos told them. "To this day, the ghost guards his tomb, ready to attack any who would disturb the dark wizard's slumber. You all have a pleasant evening." he then said before leaving mysteriously.

"All right. Who's up for pie?" Shaggy soon asked.

"Come on, Shaggy, we gotta find that staff," Dee Dee said to him. "It could be a clue."

"Aww..." Shaggy replied.

"We gotta grab Taffy, Brandie, and Justine first." Dee Dee then said.

"I can get Justine." Cindy volunteered.


In Justine's room, she was talking with her girlfriend on her laptop through video chat. "So, we're at this Magic School, and I'm learning magic." She then said.

'Think you can make Eddy and Duncan disappear so they can stop bugging me?' Jo asked.

"Very funny," Justine giggled. "You know that you care about them."

"Blah, blah..." Jo rolled her eyes. "Just abandon me here with the others."

"I think you'll live, Jo." Justine giggled.

"No, I won't," Jo replied. "It's no fun without you."

"Justine, we gotta go find the magic staff," Cindy told the shy beauty. "And hopefully, not run into the Banshee."

"Banshee?" Jo asked.

"Um, okay, Cindy, just a sec." Justine told the young girl.

"Please hurry." Cindy nodded as this was an emergency.

"Jo, I gotta go." Justine said.

"Banshee?" Jo then asked.

"And I hope that we don't run into the griffin either." Cindy continued.

"Griffin?!" Jo asked.

"Oh, I, um... Look at the time, we gotta go." Cindy said.

"Don't hang-" Jo glared only for the laptop to be closed shut.

"Let's go." Justine told Cindy.

"Right." Cindy nodded in agreement.

They soon left the room after Justine quickly finished the video chat with Jo.

"Great..." Jo grumbled as she sat on her bed and the chat was logged out since Justine turned off her computer. "Now what am I gonna do tonight? Hmm... A Banshee and a griffin... Justine and Butler could be in trouble. Maybe I should check this out for myself and go help them." she then created a portal after getting her backpack and then went through the portal, closing it behind her.


Meanwhile, the group went to the Mystery Machine, and the Teen Angels' van.

'Shadow Lake is a quarter of a mile ahead... Spooooky~...' The GPS replied.

"Oh, brother." Cindy rolled her eyes to the GPS.


The two vans soon parked and they began to explore Shadow Lake.

"We better stick together, gang," Fred suggested as he took out a map. "Remember, that banshee could be anywhere."

"Man, no matter how hard I try, I can't forget something like that." Shaggy replied.

"Don't worry, Leshawna, that banshee won't get you, not as long as I'm here." Harold promised.

"Uh... Thanks?" Leshawna replied.

"You don't sound too thrilled about your boyfriend helping you, cous." Leshaniqua said.

"I just don't want him to get hurt because of me." Leshawna replied.

Everyone got on the boats and rowed to the island.

"Who's going to shore? Who's going to shore?" Scooby asked.

They soon came over on the island.

"That wasn't too bad." Cindy said as she didn't get sick.

As they got off the boat, unknown to them, a woman came out of the water, smirking then followed the group.


"We should be getting close, gang." Fred said as he led the way with his map while Daphne held the flashlight for him.

"Just through here." Trent added as he walked with Brianna.

They soon came into some bushes.

"I guess that's a dead-end." Taffy said.

"How about we go over?" Daphne suggested before going to a tree over the bushes, showing off her new gymnastics skills.

"How did you-" Fred was about to ask until he yelled and fell down.

"Fred?" Velma called out.

"Are you okay?" Brianna added.

"Yeah," Fred smiled nervously. "I guess we all have our danger prone days."

Daphne giggled to that.

"Come on, we better help him." Brandie told the others.

They went downstairs to help Fred up and looked around the room. Scooby sniffed around the room spotted a door.

"I think Scooby found something." Cindy said to the others.

The others soon came around with their flashlights to see for themselves.

"Hm... These sure are strange markings." Cindy said as they took a look around the slabs.

"I wonder what those mean?" Justine replied.

"You got me." Cindy said.

"Each monolith has its own." Velma told the others.

"These look like something out of that book we were given for our birthday when we were younger." Taffy said as she looked around with her sister.

"Look, I found another one on the floor." Trent said.

"There's one here too." Brianna added.

"There must be a code with these." Dee Dee said as they pushed the tiles.

Scooby sniffed around before sitting on the tile in front of him which had a booming noise in the background.

"Uh-oh!" Some of the others yelped as that seemed to be bad.

"Oh, well, I guess we'll never get in that kooky crypt," Shaggy smiled bashfully. "Let's head back to the castle and make enchiladas."

However, the pillar next to him suddenly moved.

"It moved!" Shaggy frowned. "Oh, man!"

"Shaggy did it," Madelyn smiled before coming beside him to push it with him. "Come on, I bet if we push it..."

Everyone minus Scooby pushed the pillars.

"Come on, everyone, push!" Fred called out.

One of the doors opened, revealing to be a room.

"Look, a secret door." Taffy pointed out.

"Let's go!" Fred told the others.

Everyone minus Scooby went to the door.

"Come on, Scooby, if I can do it, anyone can." Cindy told the cowardly Great Dane.

However, the door began to slowly close.

"Scooby! Run!" Fred told the dog.

Scooby stared at the pillars and saw the door slowly closing.

"Hurry, Scoob!" Shaggy cried out.

Scooby soon quickly strode over and made it inside before it was too late.

"Phew! That's a relief." Justine sighed for the dog.


They then went to the tomb.

"It's the O'Flannery crest." Brandie commented.

"Help me get this lid off." Fred replied.

The others soon worked together to move the lid with their combined strength.

"If Sammy were here, she'd get it off like a pickle jar lid." Justine commented.

"She must work-out a lot." Taffy said about Sammy.

"You could say that." Justine replied.

In the tomb was the staff and O'Flannery's remains.

"That must be the staff." Brenda said.

"And that must be O'Flannery." Shaggy added.

The skull opened up as a spider crawled out while Brenda shivered with Shaggy and Scooby.

"I'll get it." Fred volunteered.

"Wait, wait, wait," Madelyn said before smiling to Shaggy. "Only the bravest hero should retrieve it."

"You can't be serious." Brianna deadpanned.

"She's serious." Justine replied.

"Oh, all right..." Shaggy sighed as he tried to pulled the staff from the skeleton, but couldn't, but with Brenda and Scooby's help, he got the staff, but Brenda landed on Shaggy's lap after the hard pull.

"Ugh... This is kinda gross..." Justine winced from the corpse.

"Oh, my gosh! Sorry, Shaggy!" Brenda gasped.

"Like, no problem." Shaggy blushed.

They soon stood up together and the staff seemed to be still gripped by the hand. '

"Gah! The hand's still on it!" Brenda shrieked.

Shaggy was shaking the hand off the staff and tossed it aside. "Yep, that's me," he then smirked. "Shaggy Rogers: the bravest hero."

Everyone shook their heads to that before they then gasped as they saw something right behind him.

"Uh, Shaggy? We have a visitor." Cindy nervously stated.

"Then, like, why is nobody saying hello?" Shaggy replied.

"Turn around." Cindy told him.

Shaggy and Scooby turned around before yelping and dropping the staff before hiding behind Velma and Madelyn.

"Uh-huh. Bravest of heroes." Velma smirked as she crossed her arms.

"So that's the banshee?" Daphne asked. "She doesn't look scary."

"Yeah, she looks kind of pretty." Fred smiled.

"Wait for it." Cindy replied.

The Banshee screamed and changed into an ugly woman.

"SHE'S NOT SO PRETTY ANYMORE!" Cindy replied.

"RUN!" Trent called out.

Everyone ran away, not knowing that they left the magic staff behind.

"Out here!" Fred cried out as he found a way out as they ran from the banshee.

Cindy was running with them, but tripped over a rock and fell, along with her glasses. "I lost my glasses!" she then cried out. "Oh, man, now I know how Velma feels."

The banshee was right behind the little girl as she was looking for her glasses.

"CINDY!" Everyone else cried out tothe girl.

"I'm sure I can feel around for them somewhere..." Cindy muttered as she touched the ground for her glasses.

"Cindy! The banshee!" Justine warned.

"Let's see where it is..." Cindy replied.

The banshee soon held out her glasses.

"Oh, thank you." Cindy said before putting her glasses back on and gasped.

The banshee soon yelled at her, blowing her hair back.

"Wait for me!" Cindy told the others as she went to go with them.

"We gotta get back to the boat!" Brenda called out.

"Not without the magic staff!" Justine replied.

"She's right! Come on!" Madelyn added.

The others soon ran for the boats while they went to get the magic staff.

"Where'd they go?!" Brianna gasped.

"They'll be here," Fred replied. "Let's get the boat turned around."


Cindy looked nervous as she was talking to herself. "Oh, man, if Justine isn't back in one piece, Jo's gonna kill us! But no pressure, nothing to worry about, she's not here, so we've got nothing to worry about."

"You sure about that?" Brenda asked Cindy.

"You don't know her like we do, she's gonna kill us!" Cindy laughed nervously. "But no worries, it's not like she's gonna come here."

"Your anxiety is giving me anxiety." Brenda replied.

"Sorry, but I can't stop panicking!" Cindy said to her.

They then heard the banshee screaming.

"Madelyn!/Justine!" Velma and Cindy cried out.

A ghost girl with unusual white eyes, without discernible irises or discernible pupils, black hair, worn in a 60's mod fashion, specifically a bouffant flip, with a lime-to-light-olive-green Alice Band. Her skin is a pale blue to greenish tone, and she has blue to greenish lips. Her outfit had her wearing a lime green halter top with an olive green miniskirt, and matching Alice band. She seemed to sigh as the banshee was causing havoc. Cindy and Velma rushed to help Madelyn and Justine while the banshee screamed.

"Come on, Justine! Hurry!" Cindy cried out.

"I'm coming!" Justine replied.

They luckily soon made it to the boat.

"Push us off, Shaggy." Daphne said.

Shaggy soon pushed the boat off of the shore and into the water so that they could escape the banshee.

"Are you okay, Justine?" Cindy asked.

"I'm fine." Justine told her.

"That's good," Cindy said. "By the way, nice footwork, Shaggy."

The banshee soon continued to chase after them while flying. Shaggy continued to speed them through the water until they hit a log which sent their boats flying and crashing.

"I might have to take that back." Cindy mumbled.

The banshee glared at them before going back underwater.

"Let's get this back to the castle and analyze it for clues." Fred suggested.

"Maybe I can help?" A voice asked.

"Who said that?" Justine asked.

The monster girl from before soon stepped out.

"Zoinks! Another Banshee!" Shaggy yelped.

"Please, stop, settle down!" The monster girl told them. "I won't hurt you!"

"W-W-Who are you?" Brenda asked.

"Relax, I won't hurt you," The monster girl said. "My name is Scarah Screams."

"Say, you go to Monster High, don't you?" Justine guessed.

"Yes, I do." The teenage banshee nodded.

"We can trust her," Justine said to the others. "She's one of the good Monster High students."

"Was that banshee your mother or something?" Cindy asked.

"I've actually never seen her before," Scarah shrugged. "I just wanted to make sure you guys are okay."

"We're fine, thanks." Cindy said.


Everyone then got back in the vans and drove off back to the castle.

"Thanks for letting me ride with you guys." Justine beamed to the Teen Angels.

"No problem." Dee Dee replied.

"You're pretty cool." Brenda said.

"Like us." Brandie added.

"You could become an honorary Teen Angel." Taffy suggested.

"Me? An honorary Teen Angel?" Justine beamed to that. "Really?"

The Teen Angels smiled and nodded.

"Next time we see each other, we should definitely hang out." Taffy replied.

"And bring your three girl friends." Brandie suggested.

"Oh, I will! Thank you!" Justine beamed.

They all then shared a hug.

"Oh, this is amazing!" Justine beamed. "I gotta post this on my ToonFace!"

"Looks like I've got a second best friend." Taffy smiled.

"If only Jo were here, this would be so happy and amazing!" Justine beamed.

"Boyfriend?" Dee Dee asked.

"Girlfriend." Justine corrected.

"...Oh, well, the name was Joe, I just thought..." Dee Dee shrugged, thinking Jo was a boy since she didn't know the jockette.

"Well, our mama always told us not to judge people." Taffy said to Justine.

"Thanks, girls," Justine replied. "You would love Jo. She's amazing and really awesome."

"We'll take your word for it until we meet her." Brandie smiled to Justine.

Justine smiled back and looked at the window and could've sowrn she saw someone, but shrugged it off.
