Back inside the warehouse, Tony and Carl placed metal bars across the only window, prohibiting any more escape attempts from the young man
"Trying to get away, huh? Well try to get past that." Speaks the elder kidnapper as he points to a now bared window.
Shaggy drops to his knees, hands clutched in a praying position as he talks with his kidnappers "If you don't mind me asking sir, but when will you let me go?"
Carl crosses his arms and turns away "As soon as someone pays us a million bucks to get you back."
Shaggy falls fully to the ground, hands holding onto his cheeks as he wails, no-one's going to pay that much to get me back! "Like, never, never!"
The pair exits the room once again, locking the door solidly behind them, ensuring Shaggy to remain their hostage.
Just across the street was one Scooby Doo, he'd made his way off the train and arrived just outside the warehouse, being driven by his owners sobs, Shaggy was crying.
Examining the building lead to one conclusion, Shaggy was trapped in the highest window covered in prison bars, now how to get up there?
Using the door was out, he'd be captured to and then there'd be no one to save Shaggy, could he scale the building?
Scooby looked in search of anything he could use to help in this mission, opening crate after crate before finally chancing upon a shipment full of plungers.
Quickly, the red cups are removed from the sticks and placed over Scooby's front and back paws, easily allowing the sleuth to walk up the building.
As Scooby begins his climb, Shaggy discovers one more way out, a skinny vent that his frame would barely fit through was high on the wall "Nothing a good jump won't fix."
The teen propels himself forward, hands grasping the ducts walls as he pulls himself inside "This is probably my only chance to get out of here."
Shaggy quickly begins his crawl through the vents, unknown to him, escaping directly above his kidnappers who stood outside guarding his door
"Hey, he's trying to escape again!" Yells Tony, his finger pointing upwards as Shaggy's dent moving across the vent vanishes, the two make their way into the room to see no sign of their captive
"We gotta stop him!" The two moving towards the now open vent "That's how he got out." Declares Carl, just as Scooby arrives outside the window
"Where's Raggy?" Questions the Great Dane upon sight of two strange men, no doubt Shaggy's kidnappers "Give me back ry Raggy now!"
"Hey look Carl, it's Scooby Doo!" Laughs Tony "Looks like he means business."
Scooby growls at the joy spreading across the man's face "I want Raggy!"
Carl laughs "You'll get your precious Shaggy back after we get paid." With that the two run from the room, they had to be fast if they wanted to keep Shaggy in their possession.
The darkness in the vents ends as a view of the clear skies greets Shaggy "Finally, an opening!"
The teen crawls faster, his attention focusing behind him as a familiar voice is heard, was that Scoob? "Hey, Scooby!"
Just as he yelled, the teen exited from the vent, landing directly into the truck bed he'd originally been kidnapped in "Zoinks!"
Carl and Tony quickly slammed the door shut, once again sealing Shaggy inside as the pair make their way to a second destination.
"Oh no, Raggy!" Yells Scooby as he views the scene, Shaggy had almost gotten away, he'd just about made it, but those two creeps took him again, the dog jumps from the great height, landing perfectly before giving chase, no way was he losing Shaggy again.
The truck gains speed fast, leaving Scooby in the dust as they reach the harbor, a large boat tied on deck "You go secure the kid; I'll keep watch for the mutt."
Tony grabs the duct tape and quickly makes his way through the hatch, catching an unsuspecting Shaggy in surprise "Just cooperate kid!"
Shaggy struggles as the sounds of tape are heard, uh-uh, no way was he letting them tie him back up "Let me go, man!"
Shaggy's wrists are firmly forced behind his back before being encased in sticky tape, followed with his ankles "Like, stop this right now, I'm not worth anything!"
"You're Shaggy! You and your gang are famous detectives; someone would pay big bucks to get you back."
Shaggy shakes his head in protest, he couldn't understand what these two were thinking, he was about to voice said complaint before he's silenced due to another strip of silver.
"I'm going to carry you out of the truck, you make a single peep and I'll drop you in the water, understand?" The threat was empty, but the kid didn't know that so Shaggy agreed eagerly, allowing the man to carry him towards the large boat.
"I'll lock him up while you go make the call." States Carl as his partner and prisoner arrive on the boat, Tony hands over Shaggy before making his way towards another telephone booth.
As Shaggy is once again being locked away, Scooby's sniffer leads him directly to the now empty truck, where was Shaggy?
The Great Dane ponders this thought as he makes his way to the phone booth, noticing a man inside speaking on the telephone, maybe this guy could help?
Scooby stood outside the booth; seconds away from knocking when he overheard the man's conversation, making him freeze in place.
"And that'll be a million bucks for the boy." Expresses Tony, his hands moving through the air in emphasis "This is Shaggy Rogers of the Mystery Inc gang we're talking about."
Scooby growls, how dare this man try to ransom off his buddy, anger clouds his judgment as the dog launches for the glass door, barking up a scene.
Tony drops the phone at the sudden attack, turning to see the one and only Scooby Doo glaring back, snarling to reveal his sharp canine teeth "Now, now, be a good little doggy."
Scooby rams the glass harder in response, his growls growing louder, his claws now becoming visible.
"Listen here you mutt! If anything happens to me, my partner will cut our losses and you'll never see Shaggy again!"
Scooby growls, but lowers back to his front paws, slowly backing away, allowing the fidgety man to exit the booth.
"That's more like it, you know pooch? I'd bet we get even more dough ransoming off the two of you together!"
Scooby snarled, no one was being ransomed on his watch, especially not his Shaggy "No Rway!"
Tony sniggers, he had the dog right where he wanted him. "That's your options mutt, you want to be with your little friend then you join him."
"Or-" beings the voice of Carl as the man approached the scene "You could take his place."
Scooby glares, but was there any truth to what they claimed? If he gave himself up, would Shaggy be safe? "I'm Ristening."
Tony shoots Carl a confused look "After all we went through to catch the kid, you just wanna let him go?"
Carl ignores the man and stared straight into Scooby's eyes "Shaggy Rogers is worth quite a lot, a teen detective and police officers son."
"Ret Raggy go, now!"
"But you're also a talking dog, belonging to the Chiefs son, his best friend that he'd give up anything for."
"So let's just keep the kid and the dog! Two birds with one stone and double the cash!" Expresses Tony
"Sorry dog, the kids worth more than you and taking you both would be too much trouble." States Carl, the man now pulling out a small hand gun.
The sound of the safety being turned off wrenched Scooby's ears, nothing like this had ever happened. They'd go to a spooky place, investigate and find some person in a mask who'd then call them meddling kids.
"Wow man, we can't just kill Scooby Doo!" Says Tony
"Why not? Can't take him along, can't leave him behind so let's just end him now." The revolver is now pointing directly into Scooby's temple.
Is this the end of Scooby Doo!? Will Shaggy ever be freed? The worst has yet to come so stay tuned folks.
