"What do we do guys?" Patch asked Scooby and Shaggy.
"Like, what we do best, little buddy, run and hide!" Shaggy cried in fear.
"Or better then that I have an idea." Atticus said.
All four of them ran into a room with a bookshelf and two machines that could shock someone if they didn't answer fast or told the truth.
"Rou rure rabout rhis?" Scooby was a little nervous.
"I've seen you guys on TV when I'm not watching Thunderbolt," Patch said to them with a smile. "You always do crazy disguises to fool the bad guys until they find out who you are and chase you!"
"Yeah, so let's go into disguise and have some fun." Atticus said
"I think I heard them in here!" Taffyta's voice was heard not too far away.
"Move it then, brat!" the Phantom Virus snapped before they came into the experimentation room.
Atticus, Shaggy, Scooby, and Patch all then got into disguise. Shaggy and Atticus dressed as doctors while Scooby and Patch would be nurses.
"Thank you for volunteering for our experiment Mr. Phantom and Miss Muttonfudge," Shaggy said to the two computer game characters. "Nurses, take the patients over to the tables."
Scooby and Patch did as told and hooked up electrical wiring against the two, they seemed to be fooled, although, for now.
"Just relax." Atticus said.
"Now, can you tell us how many layers are in an ideal club sandwich?" Shaggy asked.
"Uhh..." the virus and sugar-coated girl tried to come up with an answer.
"Time's up!" Shaggy called. "The correct answer is: Never enough!"
Scooby and Patch then set to shocking the virus and Taffyta painfully.
"Let's try one more, shall we?" Atticus asked.
Shaggy nodded in agreement. "When is the right time to enjoy a milkshake with your french fries?"
The Phantom Virus and Taffyta were stumped again.
"Time's up!" Shaggy then called. "The correct answer is: anytime!"
The two computer game characters were shocked again, but this time, they both grabbed the wires and broke the machine so they could continue the chase.
Shaggy, Scooby, Patch, and Atticus then ran as quickly as they could and ended up in the Biology Lab. There were many animals inside locked in cages, even monkeys.
"Now, now, these animals shouldn't be locked up." Atticus and Patch said with a smirk as they had an idea of what will happen after releasing the animals.
The Phantom Virus and Taffyta got to the lab doors, but once they opened them, the animals rushed out and trampled the both of them. They both got up from the stampede, but then were walked over by their targets, knocking them down again.
After Scooby, Shaggy, Atticus, and Patch got out of there, they went to the Chemistry Lab and made a concoction that would blow up in their enemies's faces.
"They should be in here any minute." Patch said.
The Phantom Virus and Taffyta walked in, very angered. Shaggy tossed them the beaker with the fizzing blue liquid and got away with the others by the time the chemical exploded all over the Phantom Virus and Taffyta. The Virus and Taffyta then chased the quad group into the metal shop part of the school only to be grabbed and thrown off by a metallic monstrosity.
Scooby, Shaggy, Atticus, and Patch then escaped into the library after they were both thrown, but still weren't totally damaged. Once they were all in the library, the good guys made the virus and Taffyta fall into a giant pile of books, making a very loud crash noise, making them mock shush them before escaping out of the library.
Meanwhile, back in the Professor's classroom, Officer Wembley was eating chips while he made Fred and the girls stay put with him.
"They sure have been gone for a long time." Daphne said.
"Maybe we should go back and look for them in case they're dead." Cherry suggested rather darkly.
"Nobody goes anywhere until Professor Kaufman comes back!" Officer Wembley told them sharply.
Suddenly, Scooby, Shaggy, Patch, and Atticus ran into the room to avoid the villains. The Phantom Virus and Taffyta were right behind them. Cherry, Daphne, Fred, and Velma saw them coming and ran together with them. Everybody decided to split up with their running. Taffyta hopped off the Phantom Virus's shoulder and ran the other way, splitting up as well. The entire group was now running all over the lab which was now becoming confusing while the Phantom Virus and Taffyta were grinning evilly, seeing them running all over the place. Suddenly, everyone crashed together and landed on the floor.
Before anyone could see who had done it, someone grabbed the laser pointer and zapped all of them out of the room in an instant. In a flash of white light, everyone appeared on a plain white background and wore spacesuits and they were suddenly on an outer space exterior.
"I don't think we're on Earth anymore..." Cherry pointed to their home planet as they appeared to be on the moon.
There was a hidden child-sized figure behind one of the craters, it was one of the Sugar Rush racers.
"Oh, no, it looks like we've been beamed into Eric's computer game." Atticus said.
"How do we get out?" Cherry asked.
"You can't get out..." a voice said.
Everyone looked around for the source of the voice. They then saw the mint green Sugar Rush racer.
"Minty Zaki?" Cherry recognized her. "What're you doing here?"
"It's the Phantom Virus and Taffyta," Minty explained the best she could. "They've separated us all... You also can't get out of the game unless you win every level... You also have to find each one of us racers... I'd tell you who's hidden and where everyone is... But I can't... I'm sorry."
"Let me guess, they forced you, right?" Atticus guessed.
"Yes..." Minty nodded, then started to cry. "I just hope Swizzle isn't getting too badly hurt like my sisters..."
"Your sisters?" Daphne asked.
"You know those recolors that look like me?" Minty asked, referring to Sticky Wipplesnit and Torvald Batterbutter.
"Yeah... They're your sisters?" Cherry looked confused.
"I consider them to be," Minty said with a small sniffle. "The same with Jubileena and Citrusella, or Adorabeezle and Nougestia..."
"We'll find the others to get you all back home... Can you help us though get out of here?" Cherry asked.
Minty sniffled and wiped her eyes. "I'll try... But only if you promise to help the others too... We're all hidden all over the game... The Phantom Virus and Taffyta made us all agree by doing something terrible to the recolors..."
"What happened to them?" Patch asked.
Minty's lips quivered and she cried even more, it was too unbearable and sad for her to even say out loud.
"It's okay, you don't have to tell us." Atticus said.
"I'm just glad they spared Swizzle..." Minty said, emotionally.
"You guys sound close." Cherry remarked.
Minty shuffled her foot against a moon rock. "We've been going out for a while actually... When our game shut down at Litwak's, we usually went to get gummy bear smoothies together."
"Don't worry, we'll help you and all the racers." Cherry promised.
Shaggy was flying and running around, taking advantage of the zero gravity with Scooby.
Minty sighed. "They're going to get themselves hurt, aren't they?"
"Yes, yes, they are." Atticus said.
"Be careful, Shaggy!" Velma warned him. "There's no gravity on the moon!"
"Look, I'm as strong as Atticus now!" Shaggy caleld with a laugh as he lifted a large rock over his head.
"Scooby, could you get Shaggy back here before he hurts himself?" Daphne asked the Great Dane.
"R'okay!" Scooby smiled, then went to go do that.
"I'll join him." Atticus volunteered.
Scooby and Atticus bounced towards Shaggy. However, when they came to him, Shaggy jumped out of the way, having some more fun.
"You guys should be really careful!" Minty warned them.
"Why?" Cherry asked her.
Shaggy kept bouncing, then hit against a rough ledge, it actually looked like it really hurt him. He then slid down as the others came by him.
"Shaggy, are you alright?" Fred asked.
"I think so, but I made an important discovery," Shaggy said as he looked slightly damaged. "In this video game, you CAN get hurt."
Minty sighed. "I tried to tell you..."
"Or worse, we better be careful." Atticus said.
"Atticus is right," Fred nodded. "Eric said this game has creatures and who knows what else?"
"Zoinks!" Shaggy cried once he saw two familiar villains with him. "I know who!"
The Phantom Virus and Taffyta laughed wickedly.
"They must've got beamed into the game too!" Cherry gasped.
Scooby gasped and started to run away to hide from them.
"Follow Scooby!" Patch said.
"They're not alone!" Fred saw the Phantom Virus and Taffyta had enemy henchmen with them.
"Let's play ball!" the Phantom Virus cackled wickedly.
"Like, let's not!" Shaggy cried.
"GET 'EM!" Taffyta called evilly.
"Quick, run!" Atticus called. "Or in this case, jump!"
The group hopped to escape the bad guys.
"I thought we were chasing them!" Velma cried.
"Back in the lab, we were, but now they got new friends!" Cherry exclaimed.
"Like, they don't look very friendly to me!" Shaggy added.
"Well, they're villains, so their friends aren't going to be very friendly at all." Patch said.
They all hid behind a giant moon rock. It looked safe for now, but Minty quickly went to hide with them. The coast looked clear for a good while as they hid in silence, then noticed that Minty was with them.
"I can tell you one thing," Minty told the group. "The only way out is to find the Scooby Snacks, if you find it, you end the level and go to the next one. I should warn you, each level will get harder and harder."
"What else do we expect from a video game adventure?" Fred scoffed with a shrug.
"You know, maybe getting into cyberspace might not be such a bad thing." Velma spoke up.
"Yeah." Atticus agreed.
"And how's that, guys?" Fred looked to them.
"Maybe if we play along, we can find out who created this virus and took Taffyta out of Jessica's game." Velma put together, showing off her braininess.
"Just find the box of Scooby Snacks." Minty told them with a smile.
"Do you happen to know where it is?" Shaggy asked the green girl.
"Sure, it's right over there." Minty pointed to the box, showing it was only a few steps away, hidden in plain sight.
"Of course it would be easy to find, it's the first level of the game." Atticus said.
The Phantom Virus and Taffyta were coming with their minions.
"Kill the sons of glitches..." Taffyta growled, nearly cursing in her speech.
"Oh, no!" Patch said and then looked to find a Moon Rover. "Look, we got transportation."
"It's a Moon Rover, yes!" Atticus cheered. "Let's hit the moon road!"
"What a cool paint job!" Shaggy smiled as the Moon Rover looked designed a lot similar to the Mystery Machine.
The gang hopped over together and there was enough room for all of them.
Being the driver of the usual van, Fred decided to take the wheel. It took a minute to start up, but they were able to zoom off to get the box of Scooby Snacks so they could end this level in one try unlike many video games with numerous tries.
Cherry looked behind with Shaggy to see that the Phantom Virus and his goons had their own set of wheels while it looked like Taffyta was driving her kart known as The Pink Lightning.
Taffyta licked her lollipop, looking devious as always. "I'll show you who's the real princess of Sugar Rush!"
Minty tried to avoid her, but it looked like Taffyta could run her over.
"Swizzle Malarkey never liked you, Minty!" Taffyta taunted the fellow child racer.
"STOP IT, TAFFY!" Minty cried, her feelings were hurt by Taffyta's bullying.
"Yeah, you brat, stop telling her lies!" Atticus yelled out.
Taffyta only laughed wickedly. "ZAP 'EM!"
The Phantom Virus laughed, then did that to send zaps to their car or damage them, whichever would come first.
"Step on it, Freddy, they're gaining on us!" Daphne cried.
"I am, this is as fast as it goes!" Fred was nearly panicking himself.
The Phantom Virus managed to zap the Moon Rover into pieces as they got quicker on their tail, luckily, no one was hurt too bad. The box of Scooby Snacks seemed very far away compared to where they were.
"Get ready for a taste of rotten strawberry!" Taffyta grinned as they were closer to the gang.
Patch and Scooby then jumped out of the vehicle and began to make their way to the Scooby Snacks. Scooby of course went because he was hungry.
"Let's hope they can get the snacks in time." Cherry said softly.
"Go Scooby and Patch, go!" Daphne cheered.
Taffyta sped her car up with the Phantom Virus and his goons with her since it was faster than their Moon Rover. She then gave a sinister smirk to Minty. "Stinky Zaki, Stinky Zaki!" she taunted.
"Quit it!" Minty cried.
Atticus went to a huge part of the moon, lifting the boulder up and then throwing it at the viruses and their friends, causing them to be flattened. "That's for taunting Minty!" he snapped.
The Phantom Virus and Taffyta weren't hurt too bad, but they scowled at Atticus. They weren't going to let him win. Luckily, as the goons were right on the dogs' tails, Scooby grabbed the snacks, ending this level and everything faded to white again and they all disappeared right from the moon level to go to the next one. Everyone was now in their normal clothes as they appeared to be in a Roman Coliseum, and for some reason, Minty wasn't there with them.
