Back in the castle, Charlie, Jessica, the kids and the animal characters were doing the finishing touches of the setup for the coronation ceremony when the remaining heroes, along with the imprisoned Dr. Zin and Jenny, were teleported back into the castle.

"Guys!" Flim Flam exclaimed "You're back!"

Flim Flam ran up to Daphne and hugged her like he hadn't seen her in a long time (and he certain to hadn't).

"Henry! Stanley! Guys!" Flip, Nancy, Scooter and Mimi ran to their siblings and hugged them.

"I knew you guys wouldn't give up on us!" Mimi hugged Suzie.

"The Chan Clan never gives up on one of their own" Stanley hugged Nancy.

"That's right!" Suzie added "We stick together through thick and thin!"

"And that's what families do" Charlie hugged his kids "No one gets forgotten or left behind."

Cavey Jr gasped "Daddy!"

"Son!" Captain Caveman ran to his son and hugged him "Me missed you so much!"

"Mommy!" Cavey Jr hugged Taffy.

"Nugget!" Taffy kept kissing Cavey Jr over and over "I missed you so much! I'll never let you out of my sight again!"

"Aunt Dee Dee!" Cavey Jr hugged Dee Dee.

"Aww I missed you too" Dee Dee hugged him back.

"Say wait a minute," Cavey Jr pointed out "There's something different about you guys."

"Yeah" said Jessica "Where's Brenda?"

The Teen Angels and the Neptunes looked at each other, unsure if they should break the news to their friends.

"Like, maybe we should get the new kings crowned now." Shaggy suggested. "We've only got, like, less than five minutes to go!"

Since there was no time to gather up all the other characters in the land, they all had to gather up the ceremony quickly. Scrappy, Googie, Flim-Flam and the rest of Mystery Inc. went onstage to start the speech.

"Attention fellow citizens of Boomerang Land," Scrappy spoke into the microphone "Presenting your new kings, Ruff and Reddy!"

The audience applauded for their new kings. But just as the crowns were about to be put on Ruff and Reddy's heads, something blasted through the wall.

"Those crowns are ours!" Dr. Zin, who managed to break free, shouted as he and Jenny used the ray guns to blast the wall.

"Oh, my!" Scrappy said as the two remaining villains cornered everyone with their guns in hand.

"That's right!" Zin grinned as he aimed the ray gun specifically towards Daphne, Scooby and Scrappy. "You kids may have destroyed my plans, but I still get the last laugh!"

"Now you're finished!" Jenny smirked "In just a second, all of you will be dead!"

Zin pulled the trigger and a large death ray was aimed right at Scooby, Scrappy and Daphne. At that moment, something snapped inside Shaggy and he quickly ran over.

Everyone watched in slow motion as Shaggy shoved Scooby, Scrappy and Daphne to the side while the death ray was fired towards them. Just then, Taffy untied her necklace and threw it right in front of the death ray, which reflected from the gold on her necklace and bounced right back, zapping both Dr. Zin and Jenny, reducing them to ashes. Everyone gasped and they were speechless.

"Jinkies" was all Velma could say.

"I think he's dead" Fred looked at Zin and Jenny's ashes.

"Zowie" Taffy said "I can't believe I did it."

"Yeah" Johnny added "You just defeated Dr. Zin and his daughter"

However, much of the attention was then directed to Shaggy as he hit the ground after shoving Scooby, Scrappy and Daphne out of harms way when the death ray gun was fired towards them.

"Shaggy!" They all shouted.

Everyone ran to Shaggy's aid to see if he was okay.

"Shaggy!" Daphne exclaimed as she leaned over to him. "Are you alright?"

"Oh, dear." Mudsy said quietly.

Just then, Shaggy opened his eyes and blinked.

"Like, what happened?" He asked. "Am I dead?"

"Raggy!" Scooby exclaimed as he raced over to lick him. "You're okay!"

Look around, he found that Zin and Jenny were gone.

"Like, I may have plenty of questions to ask, but maybe we should get the new kings crowned now!" Shaggy said. "And don't worry, I think I'm alright."

"And we'd better hurry!" Scrappy added "We only have about one minute left!"

Everyone ran as fast they could back to the places they were standing in before and the ceremony continued.

"And so," said Scrappy "I Scrappy Dappy Doo, now give my throne to none other than, our new rulers, Ruff and Reddy!"

Flim Flam then put two royal capes on the cat and dog, then Googie gave them two royal scepters and finally, Scrappy put crowns on their heads.

"Presenting, Kings Ruff and Reddy!" Scrappy announced.

The crowd roared into a loud round of applause, and it was then that they felt stronger and in better shape and color.

"Heavens to Deleware!" Mudsy remarked. "Our color is returning!"

"Now I can no longer see through myself!" Henry remarked as he watched his hand returning to its normal color.

Just then, a whole wave of color appeared and magically, everyone and everything got their colors back. Chu-Chu even reappeared.

"Chu-Chu!" The Chans all ran up to him and hugged him.

Chu-Chu jumped into the arms of his owners and started licking their faces.

"Oh Chu-Chu" Mimi started kissing him "I missed you so much!"

"You're the sweetest puppy ever!" Nancy started hugging and kissing Chu Chu as well.

"Who's a good Chu Chu?" Anne hugged him and kissed him "Who's a good Chu Chu?"

"You are! Yes you are!" Suzie kissed him on the lips.

Watching their friends celebrating the coronation of the new kings, the gang turned to each other, along with Scrappy, Googie and Flim Flam.

"It felt like a huge burden has been lifted from our shoulders." Scrappy said.

"Yeah." Shaggy nodded. "Everyone got their colours right on time."

At the Neptunes and the Teen Angels, everyone was celebrating, but the mood was more somber than the other groups.

"We finally got our colours back!" Jabber said.

"Yeah." Skip nodded sadly. "It's too bad that Shelly and Brenda aren't here to witness this moment."

"Say, you still haven't told us" said Cavey Jr "Where's Brenda?"

"And where's Shelly?" Velma added.

"What happened to them?" Debbie asked.

"And where are they?" Tinker added.

Seeing the curious looks on their friends' face, Shaggy turned to Scooby, Scrappy, Daphne, Mudsy and Boo before replying, "Like, you guys are going to need some tissues."

Meanwhile, a distance away from the ground, Shelly and Brenda have arrived at the gates to Heaven.

"Here we are Shelly" Brenda told her "The gate to Heaven."

"Our new home" Shelly sadly smiled "Here goes nothing."

"We may not able to see our friends anymore" Brenda told her "But at least we'll be together."

"And I'll be with mama" Shelly added.

The gate opened and the two new additions walked right into their new home. After entering, the two new additions looked around.

There were Angels from near and far. So many beautiful faces they had never seen before.

"I wonder where my mother is" Shelly looked from left to right.

"Shelly!" Brenda gasped "Look!"

Shelly's jaw dropped "Oh my god!"

Those two guys they saw were Angels, but not just any Angels. They were two faces they always thought they'd never see in their lives.

"I don't believe it." Brenda remarked. "It's...them."


Author's Note:

Boomerang Land has been saved! But this ain't over folks, we still have one last thing to handle...the deaths of Brenda Chance and Shelly. And there's gonna be some real important things happening in the next chapter. Biff said he was gonna slap Freddy upside the head, but I think there's gonna be more than that.

Since we're discussing death and mourning, I would like to say a few things about Joe Alaskey, who passed away this Wednesday. He was the greatest Mel Blanc successor ever. I remember hearing his voice for the first time when watching Looney Tunes: Back in Action and Tiny Toon Adventures on Nickelodeon. Such good times. He's the only one who can duplicate Mel Blanc's voices as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Foghorn Leghorn, Sylvester, Tweety, Speedy Gonzales, Marvin Martian and Yosemite Sam.

Billy West, Jeff Bergman, Dee Bradley Baker, Bill Farmer, Maurice LaMarche and Eric Bauza have had some potential and these guys, no one will do our Looney Tunes friends like our friend, Joe. Somewhere up there in the Heavens (where Brenda and Shelly just arrived into), Joe and Mel have met and I just know that the first thing one of them said to each other was none other than..."What's Up Doc?"

His death has actually given me some inspiration for more on this story, and how Skip, the Teen Angels and the Neptune's mourning can be handled and done.

We will miss you Joe.
