Meanwhile, we can see the others watching this from a grassy green crystal ball.
"Hold it, hold it, wait a minute, hold it a second," Jim spoke up as a woman's face known as Madame Leota appeared after the image was shown. "You're telling me this guy is dead and the reason we were brought here is because he wants to try to get jiggy with my wife?"
"Pretty much." Ezra nodded.
"Are you upset?" Emma added in.
"The guy is dead and he's trying to get with my wife!" Jim exclaimed. "And the house really isn't for sale?! Yes, I'm upset!"
"Leota, please tell us that the real spirit of Elizabeth is somewhere in this mansion." Mo begged.
"I believe it's true that Elizabeth walks these halls." Leota replied.
"You see? I told you, it is her!" Ezra said to Emma.
"But, do not be deceived," Leota then warned. "All things are not as they appear. For the curse to be lifted, the truth must be known and for the truth to be known, you must find the key."
"What key?" Drell asked.
"Enter the tomb under the Great Dead Oak and travel deep under the ground." Leota informed. "And there, you will find the key that must be found. Find the black crypt that bears no name, or soon, your fate will be the same."
"So, all we have to do is get a key?" Mo asked.
"The key is the answer to all." Leota replied.
"Well, great, I'm in," Jim said so he could get his wife and get out of this place. "Let's get this key."
"Uh, excuse me, but how do we get out of here?" Cherry asked.
"That's a good question," Jim agreed. "How do we get out of here?"
"Well, uh, there's always my way..." Ezra grinned rather eerily.
"We're gonna get outside through the wall, Grandpa?" Atticus asked.
"Yup." Ezra smirked.
"Um, no, I am not crashing through a wall, you can't make me..." Cherry said.
"Fine," Drell stood up with a mocking smirk. "You stay here with the ghosts, goblins, and crazy people while we save the day and you just back out like the spineless coward you are."
"I am not a spineless coward!" Cherry glared at him.
"Then prove it." Drell smirked.
"I will!" Cherry glared as she shook her fists at him.
They were all now coming in a ghostly horse-carriage with a ghost skeleton horse as they broke through the mansion walls with Ezra driving and laughing rather crazily on the way.
"Hey, I thought you said you could drive this thing!" Jim glared up at the ghost man.
"Don't worry, I know exactly what I'm doing." Ezra replied as he drove them.
"You sure about that, Grandpa?!" Atticus called out.
"I've been doing this for years, sonny, trust me!" Ezra replied.
There was then a low tree branch coming up. Ezra and Emma screamed at it, they didn't duck down so their heads swooshed away briefly before coming back.
"Well, you better just keep your eyes on the road!" Cherry called before gulping as she looked like she was sick to her stomach from the driving. "Oh, sweet mother..."
"Move over!" Emma glared at her husband, taking the reigns from him.
"What're you doing?" Ezra glared back.
"If you keep driving, you'll kill us all!" Emma replied.
"Well, that's where you're wrong, because some of us are already dead!" Ezra retorted with a laugh.
"Are you trying to kill me and the others as well?!" Atticus asked out of worry.
"I'm starting to see where Atticus got his impulsive genes from." Cherry mumbled to herself.
Ezra soon pulled back on the reigns to slow down the dead horse. The skeletal horse neighed and settled down, walking slowly through the grounds now.
"Guys, look!" Megan pointed to the various ghosts they passed.
"Wow, now that's a lot of ghosts." Atticus said.
"Good thing Shaggy and Scooby aren't here." Mo commented.
"Dad?" Michael spoke up.
"Yes, son?" Jim replied.
"I see dead people."
"That's okay, son, I see them too."
"Why are these ghosts still here?" Drell asked.
"When they died, they couldn't find the light and now... Now they're trapped." Emma replied.
"Doomed to wander the Earth for all eternity." Ezra added in.
"As long as Stinky, Fatso, and Stretch aren't here... I'm happy..." Cherry replied.
"Yeah." Mo nodded.
The others did their best to be polite for the ghosts.
"Boo." Drell said right behind Cherry.
Cherry screamed and fell to the floor in a fetile position and shivered like a coward.
"DRELL!" Atticus glared.
Drell snickered with his hand to his mouth. Atticus soon bonked Drell on the head for tormenting Cherry.
"Ow!" Drell rubbed his head with a small glare to Atticus.
Soon enough, the carriage stopped.
"Whoa!" Ezra told the horse.
"Alright, now let's go and find that key." Mo said.
Jim nodded and turned, but freaked out once he saw three ghosts inside the carriage. "Hey! What're you doing here?!"
"Can they see us?" one ghost asked the other.
"No, of course not." the other ghost replied.
"Yes, of course I can see you, I'm looking at you right now in your stupid hat." Jim replied.
"Don't listen to him," the other ghost told the one ghost. "He's lying."
"Are you blind?" Atticus asked the ghost.
"Whatever," Jim scoffed. "Come on, guys, let's go."
"I could swear he was looking right at me." the first ghost said.
"He's psychic." the other ghost said as the others left the ghoulish carriage.
"Idiot." Mo whispered.
Meanwhile, Edward took Sara and Patch into one room.
"This was to have been her wedding dress." Edward said as he showed a white dress to the woman and the Dalmatian puppy.
"She would have looked beautiful in it." Patch smiled.
"It's lovely." Sara agreed.
"It would have been lovelier if she'd had a chance to wear it," Edward put his arm around Sara. " Now it serves only as a dark reminder of what could have been."
"Were the two of them ever thinking about having kids?" Patch asked.
"Yes, as a matter of fact," Edward replied. "There were two children who didn't have anywhere else to go or any homes to call their own, and they decided after a grand party when the man would have the nerve to propose to the woman of his dreams, that they would live happily ever after and raise the children as if they were their very own and have them also inherit the mansion."
"So, what happened to the children after she... You know?" Patch asked.
"I'm afraid nobody knows..." Edward replied gravely. "The last heard from them was that they ran away, presumably back to the orphan home they came from."
"Oh, my." Patch pouted.
"To love someone so much and then lose them so suddenly," Sara said softly. "I can't imagine how awful that must be."
"If you truly love someone, they never leave you," Edward looked deep into her eyes. "They remain in your heart forever."
"I know what that's like." Patch said.
Edward and Sara smiled to him.
"Puppy love?" Sara asked.
"Oh, you bet..." Patch smiled bashfully.
"Love is a powerful thing." Edward smiled.
"Indeed." Sara agreed.
