After 45 minutes of driving, our heroes finally made it to Messick Flatts.

"Okay gang!" Fred spoke through the radio speaker "We're here."

Everyone got out of their respective vehicles.

"Hey!" Scrappy just noticed something "Where's Gazoo?"

"Yeah" Scooby said "Re never came back."

Just then, Gazoo conveniently appeared in midair.

"You called?" He asked.

"Zoinks!" Shaggy gasped.

"Gazoo, where are Fred, Barney and George." asked Scrappy.

"Zin captured them and their families." said Gazoo "So it looks like they're one of the many characters we gotta rescue."

"Jinkies!" said Velma.

"You can say that again." said Gazoo

"Jinkies!" Velma said again.

"I didn't mean literally." Gazoo rolled his eyes.

"Well anyways," said Velma "We got all the teams together."

"Speed Buggy, Funky Phantom, Jabberjaw, Captain Caveman and their friends." Gazoo saw the other teams "I see. Why them?"

"I had a dream where we all teamed up to stop some monster that kidnapped all our friends." Scooby explained "I figured if my dream meant that we could capture a skeleton monster, we could team up to stop a mad genius."

"And we've been good friends with the Speed Buggy since they guest starred on an episode of The New Scooby-Doo Movies." Daphne explained.

"Who else can join the team now?" asked Scrappy "You heard what the author said. Our search is far from over!"

"How about Dynomutt and the Blue Falcon?" said Fred "We teamed up with them a few times.

"And they helped us battle Zin on another episode of Scooby-Doo Mystery Incorporated." said Daphne "However, Zin got away."

"Then go fetch us the Blue Falcon and Dynomutt, oh Great Gazoo." Scrappy snapped his fingers.

"Very well" Gazoo sighed and teleported away.

"Well we'd better get everyone together." said Velma.

"Right!" Everyone said.

"Attention everyone" Fred called out.

Everyone kept talking and didn't hear Freddy.

"Uh, guys?" Fred tried to talk again.

Everyone kept talking.

"Let me handle this Freddy." Velma said gently and cleared her throat "HEY!"

Everyone turned their attention to Velma and shut up.

"Thank you." She said gently "Now, here are Scooby-Doo and his nephew, Scrappy with something important to say."

"Hello fellow mystery solvers!" Scrappy announced.

"You all know us." Scooby added.

"We are Mystery Incorporated and you already know why we've called you all here!" Velma continued "To stop Dr. Zin from kidnapping popular characters!"

"And we've noticed that some of you dudes aren't exactly buddy- buddy." Shaggy continued.

"So if there's anyone who has a rivalry, you have to put your differences aside, so we can all save Boomerang Land." Fred continued. "So shake hands."

Skip and Augie both reluctantly shook hands. So did Daphne and Shelly. So did Elmo and Boo.

"Okay people!" Googie announced "This is a matter of life and death! This is probably one of the biggest mysteries y'all have ever been wrapped in! So are y'all ready?"

"Yes!" Everyone shouted.

"Alright baby! Let's do this thang." Googie put her hands on her hips "To Quest Labs!"

And so, our heroes went off on their adventure. After 13 minutes of walking, the gang finally made it to Quest Labs.

"We've finally made it gang." said Freddy.

"Bout time" Daphne sighed "My feet are killing me."

"I feel for you girlfriend." Taffy rubbed her feet.

"Ditto" April rubbed her feet as well.

"That's what you get for wearing heels baby." said Googie.

"Like, hold on." said Shaggy "I just had a thought."

"A thought?" Shelly asked "In case you forgot stupid, we have a mission here."

"Shelly!" Biff elbowed her.

"What is your thought Shaggy?" asked Skip.

"Well, what if some of us went to Quest Labs and the others helped Scrappy find the new king?" suggested Shaggy.

"Good idea Raggy." said Scooby.

No way!" said Scrappy "I've come a long way and I will help my Uncle Scooby stop those baddies."

"But you can't go Scrappy-Doo!" said Mudsy.

"Yeah" Cavey Jr added "We are going to fade into oblivion if you don't find a new king."

"Hold on!" said Shaggy "Hear me out!"

"WHAT?!" Everyone shouted.

"Let's divide into four teams. Team A, Team B, Team C and Team D." said Shaggy "Scooby, Scrappy, Googie and I will be on Team A. Velma will be on Team B. Fred is Team C and Flim-Flam and Daphne can be Team D."

"Really?" Daphne put her hands on her hips "I'm Team D?"

"Hey, your first name begins with the letter D." Shaggy told Daphne.

"Good point." said Daphne, beaten.

"Two teams could go take down Zin and the other teams could help Scrappy find a new king." Shaggy explained.

"I'm guessing that could work." said Scrappy.

"Are you sure, Scrappy?" asked Freddy "I mean, that sounds kinda complicated."

"Actually Fred, it makes sense." Daphne told him. "I mean, we can't all go at once."

"Then again, who am I to disagree? I make teams all the time." Fred shrugged "All right, let's go with Shaggy's plan.

"Like, wow!" said Shaggy "Awesome!"

"Really, Fred" Velma folded her arms "You want to go with Shaggy's idea?"

"Velma, we're facing major problems." said Fred "I'm willing to go with any idea."

"Ok. Now each one of us should take a mystery solving with us." said Velma "Marcie and I will take the Speed Buggy and his friends."

"Sp-sp-sp-sp-spectacular." said Speed Buggy.

"I'll go with the Funky Phantom and friends!" said Freddy.

"Heavens to Delaware." said Mudsy "How wonderful, an honor, a privilege even."

"Dibs on Captain Caveman and the Teen Angels!" said Scooby and Shaggy.

"That's means I'm stuck with Jabberjaw's gang." Daphne sighed.

"Stuck?" said Jabberjaw "W-w-w-what do you mean by that, Daphne Blake of Mystery Incorporated?"

"Sorry Jabberjaw," said Shelly "It's just that I'm not forward to being on the same team with Shelly."

"Listen, Blake." Shelly put a hand on her hip and poked Daphne's nose "I'm not so thrilled about it either. You're the last person I wanna stop bad guys with."

"Listen ladies," said Biff "Y'all are gonna have to put aside your differences and stop squabbling if we are gonna do this."

"Yeah." Jabber said "You promised."

"Our honor's at stake Daphne." Flim Flam added.

"Fine." Daphne and Shelly both said at the same time. "We promise not to argue."

While Daphne and Shelly shook hands, they both secretly crossed their fingers.

"Now c'mon." said Marcie "Let's get into the lab."

"Does that mean you're on Team B?" Velma asked Marcie.

"I guess." Marcie shrugged.

"Can I be Team A?" asked Madelyn.

"NO!" said Shaggy "Velma, You take her! Madelyn's with you."

"Sis, go to Team A." said Velma.

"Thanks!" Madelyn ran over and hugged Shaggy. "Oh Shaggykins, I knew this was meant to be. We shall go and conquer Zin and his evil with our love."

Madelyn started smothering Shaggy with kisses.

"Have fun, Norville!" Velma laughed.

"I swear to god, Velma Dinkley! I am going to get you for this!" said Shaggy

"How romantic," Brenda said affectionately "Two lovers on the same team and going on an epic journey."

"Yuck." Cavey Jr stuck out his tounge.

"Alright everyone." Said Marcie "Ready for our journey?"

"Yes!" They all shouted.

"Here we go." Marcie pressed a button on the buzzer on the main building's door.

However, the doors opened when Marcie put her hand on them.

"The doors are open?" Marcie saw the doors.

Fred kicked the door open wide. The entire lobby was a mess.

"Jeepers!" said Daphne "What happened here?"

"This place has been completely ransacked." said Velma.

"And the 'Duh' award goes to Velma Dinkley of Mystery Inc.!" Shelly rolled her eyes.

"Hey! What's your problem?" Velma glared at Shelly.

"You guys want me to get along with Daphne! We said nothing about Velma!" Shelley smugly smiled.

"Could you please be nice to both of us?" asked Velma "And you guys thought I was a pill!"

"Yeah" Mark added "Don't be such a jerk."

"G-g-g-golly." Brenda stammered "What happened here?"

"Looks like a twister hit this place." Tinker remarked.

"Heavens to Ben Franklin," said Mudsy "Where are the Quests already?"

"W-Who's there," said a timid voice.

"Aaaaahhh!" Brenda, Clamhead, Jabberjaw and Scooby screamed.

"Zoinks" Shaggy shivered.

Shaggy, Brenda, Clamhead, and Scooby jumped into each other's arms.

"I'm outta here!" Mudsy vanished.

"Arrff" Elmo whimpered.

"P-p-p-p-p-who's t-t-there?" Speed Buggy gasped.

"Show yourself you slime ball!" Scrappy waved his fists "If you don't, I'll splat ya! Cause you're dealing with Scrappy-Doo!"

"Scooby-Doo? Mystery Inc.? A bunch of other guys, who I don't know?" A figure walked out of the shadows.

"It's Jonny Quest!" They all said.

"Unga he look skinnier on TV." Captain Caveman remarked.

"He's taller than he was on the original series." said Scrappy "I guess he's in his teens like the 1996 show."

"There was a 1996 Jonny Quest show?" asked Velma.

"Hiya Johnny!" Flim Flam shook Johnny's hand "The names Flim Flam Blake and I just wanna say what an honor it is to meet you. I have so many questions like, how do you get to use those guns and weapons? And how do you fight all those bad guys? And-"

"Flim Flam." Daphne held Flim's shoulders "Calm down. We are here for one reason only."

"Fine" Flim sighed.

"What are you guys doing here?" asked Johnny. "And why are these guys with you?"

"Scrappy can't be king anymore and we've gotta find a forgotten toon to take his place or everything we're standing on will disappear forever along with all the forgotten toons." Freddy explained. "Including you and your family."

"Really?" asked Jonny.

"Yeah" Scrappy added "And your arch-enemy Dr. Zin is formulating a plan so he can survive while the rest of us don't!"

"That might explain what happened earlier." said Jonny.

"Zowie!" said Taffy "What happened?"

"We were all minding on our own business when Zin's robots attacked the place. I escaped but they captured everyone else." Jonny explained.

"Zoinks!" said Shaggy "We're so sorry."

"Don't worry, we'll help you recuse them." said Daphne, putting her hand on his shoulder.

"Really?" asked Jonny.

"Yeah" Scooby said "We will."

"Thanks." said Jonny.

"But where are we gonna find them?" asked Mark "They could be anywhere."

"I hope they're in Canada." said Bubbles "I like Canada."

Shelly smacked Bubbles in the back of the head "They're not in Canada, bubblehead!"

"We will help you find your dad and others Johnny," said Velma "But we have to stop Zin's other robots from stealing the popular characters' hearts."

"You have any idea on which places they could be going to?" asked Biff.

"Zin's hideout, I guess." said Jonny.

"No." Said Biff "I mean what worlds they are going to. If we can find the other worlds, we might be able to find out where Dr. Zin's hideout is."

"Other worlds?" asked Jonny "Then looks like we're gonna have our work cut out for us."

"Yeah" Velma said "Our boss told us that Zin is sending his minions to different worlds to suck out the popular toons' hearts. If we follow the robots and rescue the characters they are trying to kidnap, we can probably get some leads on where Zin's hideout is."

"That's a great idea Velma." Said Johnny "But which worlds are they going to?"

"Good question." said Velma. "Mr. E never told us which worlds the robots are going to."

"I've got an idea." said Flim Flam.

"You do?" asked Scooby.

Flim Flam reached into his track suit pockets and took out a big, shiny ball.

"P-p-p-huh?" Speed Buggy looked at the crystal ball.

"Heavens to Delaware" Mudsy gasped. "I've never seen anything like it."

"Wowe wow wow." Clamhead added.

"Zowie" Taffy exclaimed.

"Jeepers" Daphne exclaimed "Flim Flam! That's Mr. Van Ghoul's crystal ball!"

"A crystal ball" Bubbles looked at the crystal ball "It looks so pretty."

"Unga, that look pretty enough to eat." Captain Caveman grabbed the crystal ball and almost ate it, but Flim Flam grabbed it.

"You've been carrying a crystal ball with you?" asked Dee-Dee.

"Flim Flam, where on earth did you get that?" Googie asked.

"Yeah" Marcie added.

Suddenly, Vincent's image appeared on the crystal ball.

"I loaned it to him." He said.

"Aah." Everybody shouted.

"Mr. Van Ghoul," said Shaggy "You're like not gonna believe this, Dr. Quest has been-"

"Kidnapped by Dr. Zin." Vincent finished for Shaggy.

"Yeah." Brenda added "And he's-"

"Sending an army of deadly robot soldiers into other worlds after popular characters' hearts so only he will survive." Vincent finished.

"Jumping jellyfish" Biff exclaimed "Someone's been keeping up with the times."

"Heavens to Ken Spears" said Mudsy "That's amazing you know that."

"Of course he knows that Mudsy" said Flim Flam "He's the most powerful warlock in the world."

"We called you because we are going to find my dad, bodyguard, dog, and brother and go into the worlds and rescue the still popular characters." Johnny explained "Do you know what worlds they're going to?"

"Yes I do." Vincent said "But you need one last thing."

"What is it?!" Everyone shouted.

"The magic paintbrush" Vincent said.

"That thing again?" Scooby asked.

"Magic paintbrush?" asked Augie, confused.

"What magic paintbrush?" asked Mudsy.

"Scooby used it to defeat the blot!" said Shaggy.

"Oh yeah I forgot about that." said Dee Dee.

"What does it do, exactly?" asked Mudsy.

"It shoots paint and thinner." Scrappy explained "And it makes everything you draw come to life. Paint restores color and thinner dissolves anything. It's a very powerful weapon."

"Zowie Scooby-Doo" said Taffy "You're only lucky dog."

"Awesome even" Mudsy added.

"Rister Ran Rhoul" Scooby told Vincent "Do you think you can send it to us?"

"No use Scooby." Vincent said "You're going to have to get it on your own. Earlier today, someone had accidentally taken it. You have to get it back before he finds out its magic."

"Do you think you can do it Scooby-Doo?" Shaggy asked Scooby.

"I must!" Scooby stood on two legs and boldly saluted "Only for Scrappy!"

"That's my uncle!" Scrappy gave two thumbs up.

"You can't do this alone Scooby." Vincent told him "You need to bring backup."

"And I know who's coming with me." Scooby said "Jabberjaw, Captain Caveman, Speedy, rand Rudsy."

"P-p-p-p-us?" asked Speed Buggy.

"Why us?" Jabberjaw asked.

"Because I dreamt that our friends were stolen by a monster and we rescued them." Scooby explained "Now I'm going to make that dream a reality."

"Count me in!" Mudsy said.

"Me too." Jabberjaw raised his fin.

"Me three." Captain Caveman added.

"Me f-f-four." Speed Buggy finished.

"If Scooby's gotta find it, I'm going with him too!" said Shaggy "He's like, nothing without me."

"Same here!" said Scrappy.

"Really Raggy? Rou?" asked Scooby.

"Of course, you're my best friend." said Shaggy "Besides I'd do anything to escape Madelyn."

"Jeepers Scooby," Daphne gasped "I've never seen you so brave."

"When it comes to family, I do unusual things." Scooby said.

"Allow to transfer myself to the lab." Vincent said.

Vincent vanished from the crystal ball and appeared right in the lab.

"Ready boys" He asked.

"Ready!" said Scooby, Scrappy, Jabberjaw, Speed Buggy, Captain Caveman and Mudsy.

Vincent waved his arms and a swirling purple vortex came up.

"Wait, how are they gonna get back?" asked Marcie.

"This way" Vincent held out his hand a big red button appeared in his palm "Press the button and you guys will be sent back here."

"Gee thanks Mr. Van Ghoul." Jabberjaw took the button.

Scooby, Scrappy, Shaggy and the mascots got into Speed Buggy.

Mudsy put Boo into April's arms "Boo, you stay here and don't pick fights with Elmo while I'm gone."

"Rrrow." Boo meowed.

"It's Funky Phantom time!" Mudsy teleported into Speed Buggy.

Shelly walked to "I can't believe I'm saying this to you, Blubber Head but...good...luck."

"Aw Shell, you're too kind." Jabberjaw picked up Shelly and gave her a big kiss.

"Get your fishy lips off me!" She shouted.

Jabber jumped right into Speedy.

"No respect." He remarked "Not even when I have to recover an important item."

"Good luck daddy." Cavey Jr waved to his father.

"See you when me get back Jr." Captain Caveman waved to his son.

Madelyn ran up to Shaggy and hugged him and kept kissing him, while sobbing "Oh Shaggykins, please don't leave me. I can't live without you. Don't leave me!"

"So long Maddie." said Shaggy.

He zoomed right into Speed Buggy like there was no tomorrow.

"No!" Madelyn sobbed "Baby, come back!"

"Bye." Shaggy waved.

"Goodbye my love." Madelyn blew kisses to Shaggy.

Marcie got into Speed Buggy as well.

"What you doing Marcie?" asked Cavey.

"I'm coming with you guys." She said "Y'all will need some brains."

"You'd better hurry Scrappy and get that brush or we're doomed." Googie held Scrappy's hands.

"Don't worry honey, Uncle Scooby and I will get back here in time." said Scrappy.

Googie picked Scrappy up and quickly kissed him on the lips.

"Come on Uncle Scooby!" Scrappy picked up Scooby and jumped into Speedy. "We've got a brush to find."

"P-p-p-p-ready?" Speed Buggy charged up "G-g-goooo!"

Speed Buggy drove Scooby, Scrappy, Marcie, Shaggy, Jabberjaw, Captain Caveman and Mudsy right into the portal at super speed. Once again, Scooby-Doo and his nephew were off on another adventure to save the world, but in a limited time.
