Meanwhile, miles away from the main continent in Rome, Charlie, Jessica, the animals and the kids got into the Chan Van so they could get back to the main continent. Okay, I'll admit that was a bit redundant.
"Oh boy" said Reddy "Off we go! We're gonna be king! Isn't this great, Ruff?"
"You betcha Reddy" Ruff gave a thumbs up.
"You'll love living in the castle guys," said Flim-Flam "It's luxurious."
"Okay kids," said Jessica "Buckle up, cause the Chan Copter is taking off."
"Hey, hey, hey" said Yogi "Thank you for boarding Air Chan folks! We are now making our way to the main continent of Boomerang Land. Fasten your seat belts and enjoy the flight."
Everyone buckled up their seats. Charlie pressed a button on the Chan Van's control pad and the van converted into a helicopter. They then took off into the sky.
"Boy," Cavey Jr told the other kids "You guys must be proud we finally found these two, huh?"
"Yeah" said Flim-Flam "Isn't it just great?"
"But Flim-Flam, I was wondering" said Mimi "Since you're not prince anymore, where are you, Scrappy and Googie going to live?"
"Gee" Flim-Flam remarked "I haven't really thought of that, although I'd sure love to live with Daphne."
"Why?" Scooter asked.
"She felt like a mother to me" Flim-Flam replied "She took me in and adopted me as her son, back when we were ghost hunting with Scooby, Shaggy and Scrappy."
"Wow" said Nancy "You must be lucky to have had a mama."
"And why didn't you stay with her?" Mimi added "I mean, you were homeless. You could've died out in the cold, cruel streets."
"Well, I wasn't really the most popular character around" Flim Flam explained "Actually, I was hated even more than Scrappy. Before we could seal up the last two ghosts, the series was done and I wasn't able to stay with her and the gang."
"And Daphne did nothing about it?" Jessica raised an eyebrow "That's so cruel of her."
"Well, by then, she went to start her own TV series with Freddy" Flim-Flam explained.
"Oh yeah" said Huck "Coast to Coast with Daphne Blake! Desert Flower never missed an episode."
"Well, by then, she started to fall in love with Fred." Flim Flam replied. "She wasn't able to do much about me ending up here in Boomerland with Scrappy and Googie."
"So you still haven't told us, what was it like to have Daphne as your mama?" Nancy asked "We don't don't have mamas."
"She was like an angel from heaven." Flim Flam replied. "She really cared for me and always makes sure that I feel like I am at a comfortable home. Staying with her and Shaggy and Scooby and Scrappy were among the highest points of my life. Shaggy and Scooby were always there to lighten up our moods whenever we're down, and staying with them made me felt like home."
"Aww" Nancy gushed "You're so sweet."
"I had no idea Flim-Flam was such a mama's boy." Flip remarked.
"I guess I am" Flim said "I wish Daphne could stay here and be my mama forever."
Nancy nodded as she placed her arm on his shoulder.
"I love my mama," he said sadly "But I often wonder if she loves fame and her job more than me."
Flim-Flam started to silently cry as tears fell out of his eyes. There was silence, other than the sound of the helicopter, as Flim-Flam cried silently while Nancy kept her arm on his shoulder to comfort him.
"Oh Flim Flam" she whispered as she hugged him. "Don't cry."
"It's not fair!" He slightly shouted as he cried "Everyone I love leaves me. It's not fair!"
"Well, you still got me for support, Flim-Flam." Nancy calmed him down.
Flim Flam hugged her back and she wiped away his tears.
"I love you Nancy" he hugged her as more tears fell out.
"I love you too, Flim-Flam." Nancy nodded as she hugged him back.
Meanwhile, over at Crystal Cove, it was clear that the heroes have no intention to give up without a fight as they faced the agents. It was one awesome and epic battle against Alice May, Dr. Zin and Jenny's minions, the Teen Angels (minus one), the Neptune's (minus one), the Funky Phantom kids and the original Mystery Inc.
"You know missy" April said as she fought Alice May "I think you'd better to impersonate someone else. Cause you're about to be flattened."
"We'll see about that Stewart" Alice blocked April's kick.
During the fight, Cavey used his club to knock out several agents, while Pericles used his martial arts skills to knock out more agents. Everyone else had to rely on their own personal skills.
"These meddling kids are too hot to handle!" One of the agents shouted. "Call for backup!"
"Right" Alice called Dr. Zin "Alice May calling Dr. Zin. We need backup! Now!"
"This is Dr. Zin" Zin said over the phone "Get to Japan and capture Scooby-Doo and the Funky Phantom! Immediately! Forget about the others!"
"Roger" Alice hung up "Agents! Hog tie the enemies! We are going to Mt. Fuji!"
"I don't think so." April suddenly said as she used a frying pan to whack Alice, who then had a foolish look on her face before slumping onto the floor.
"In your dreams." Ricky added as he fired the rocket launcher towards the helicopter meant to transport the agents. "You're not getting anywhere near them!"
"Drat! We've lost another helicopter!" An agent shouted frustratingly as the helicopter blew up.
"They're down!" said Brad "Nows our chance to get outta here and find the new Mystery Inc!"
"No sooner said than done!" Jabberjaw grabbed Elmo, Cavey and the kids.
They all ran as fast as they could to where Brad was leading. Luckily, they made it right before Alice and the baddies could get them.
Meanwhile, over at Mount Fuji, Shaggy's group were climbing up the volcano and braving the cold.
"How much longer, Shag?" Daphne asked. "It's freezing around here."
"Like, it shouldn't be long, Daph." Shaggy replied. "But I do agree that the winter storm up here is tenser than it was the last time Scoob and I were here."
"Reah." Scooby agreed. "I don't remember row he ralked rus into it back then."
"Hey, gang, the Gate of Air is over there!" Mudsy pointed.
Sure enough, the gate can be seen in the distance.
"Then, let's go!" Scrappy said, and the six quickly took off and raced towards the Gate of Air.
Soon, they crossed the Gate of Air.
"We made it!" Daphne smiled. "Now where's the Gate of Fire?"
"Like, it's inside the volcano." Shaggy replied as he pointed down towards the funnel below them.
"Golly!" Scrappy remarked. "We're going to jump into a volcano, right Uncle Scooby?"
"Reah!" Scooby replied.
"You know, Shag, I'm not sure about this." Daphne turned to Shaggy. "What if we fall into the lava?"
"Like, don't worry, Daph." Shaggy reassured her with a smile. "At least we're together with Scoob and Scrappy and Mudsy and Boo."
Daphne smiled back as she wrapped her arm around Shaggy's back.
Nodding, Shaggy turned to his teammates and said, "Like, let's do this, guys!"
Everyone else nodded before jumping into the volcano.
They were finally in the volcano. They all landed on top of each other.
"Heavens to Betsy Ross" said Mudsy "That was unusual, freaky, weird even."
"Roy rats gonna reave a mark." Scooby groaned.
"Come on Uncle Scooby!" Scrappy told his uncle "This is no time to rest. We've gotta find that sword before it's too late!"
Just then, the rock they landed on started to crack, and before any of them could react, the rock broke into one large piece and fell into the lava. Fortunately, they all moved to the top end of the rock as the bottom end hits the lava, and within seconds, they were surfing down the lava river in the volcano.
"Weee!" Scrappy said as he did a surfing pose. "This is fun, Uncle Scooby!"
"Reah!" Scooby agreed.
"Hang on, everyone!" Shaggy shouted as they surfed down the lava river.
After minutes of surfing, Mudsy said, "Heavens to Delaware! The Gate of Fire!" Sure enough, the Gate of Fire was in front of them, and they effortlessly crossed the gate. After crossing the Gate of Fire, the lava river led them to the mouth of a small underwater volcano, where they then got off the rock and started swimming.
Seeing the Gate of Water up ahead, the six quickly swim over and crossed the gate.
Eventually, the six heroes reached the surface of the water and found themselves in a beautiful valley with a large cave nearby.
"Like, that's where the Green Dragon and the Sword of Fate are, gang." Shaggy said as they reached the shore.
"Then. let's go." Scrappy said. "Ta-da-da-da-da-da! Puppy power!"
He then charged towards the cave, with his teammates close behind.
Author's Note:
Boy, you can sure feel bad for Flim-Flam. He sure is having an emotional crisis, he often wonders if Daphne really loves her fame, money and mystery career more than him, and if she's more than willing to be his mama. Kids should be able to trust their parents and know they'll always be there for them, but with Flim-Flam and Daphne...that's a different story. But at least he knows he can trust Nancy, who he loves and knows he can trust. Still though, will Flim-Flam be able to trust Daphne as his mother and know she'll always be there for him? And does she really love her career and fame more than Flim Flam?
As for our other heroes, they are on their way to find the Sword of Fate. Can they find the sword in time and get back before Zin conquers the world? Stay tuned folks!
