It was a great day for Mystery Incorporated they had just solved another mystery in the Police Department and were celebrating in one of the cell.
"Another mystery bites the dust," Velma announced.
"Way to go, gang!" Fred congratulated.
"Let's Celebrate," Daphne ordered.
"Yeah, celebrate," Scooby repeated.
The Gang began to walk out of the cell until they heard the door suddenly slam.
It was Sheriff Stone as he stood there with his arms crossed and said, "Better Idea."
"Aw, come on, Sheriff," Fred complained clearly getting tired of Sheriff Stone's foolish acts.
"Just Cork it. You see this badge? Know why it's here?" Sheriff Stone questioned.
"It came with the shirt," Velma added.
"It's here because if there's a crime, I solve it," Sheriff Stone corrected walking to the door. "Oh, and by the way,I've called all your parents, who, by now, I have on speed dial. Oh, are you in trouble. Especially you, Fred. Say hi to dad, the Mayor," Sheriff Stone instigated leaving the room and closing the door after him.
"Just once, it would be nice if someone thanked us for solving a mystery," Daphne stated.
"Good thing, we're not in this to be liked," Fred mentioned.
The rest of the gang glared at him disagreeing with his statement.
"Maybe that didn't come out quite right Fred re-stated.
The next day Velma was helping her parents by doing the haunted tour.
"Welcome to the Crystal Cove haunted tour. I'm your ghoulish guide Velma. The first documented case of the curse of Crystal Cove is from 1630, when a garrison of Spanish Conquistadors mysteriously vanished from the harbor," Velma explained in a bored to death voice.
"Oh, that is so scary! Where did they go?" One of the Female Tourists asked.
"What part of the word,mysterydidn't you understand? The curse struck again in 1765 when an entire town of missionaries likewise disappeared. Anyway, things were pretty quiet until 100 years later, when found gold here and renamed the town Crystal Cove. Most people thought the curse had been lifted, until the entire disappeared one Halloween and was never seen again,moving on," Velma continued to describe as she played a recording of the Darrow Family screaming as she then lead the tourists inside to the exhibits.
"Since the disappearance of the Darrow family, Crystal Cove has been a hub of paranormal activity. You might recognize some of our more famous visitors. Ghostly deep sea diver, Captain Cutler, Miner fourty-niner, Charlie the Haunted Robot,and who could forget the terrifying stylings of Space Kook, Not Me," Velma said.
"Oh! How frightening!" A Male Tourist added.
"Oh! Absolutely blood-curdling," The Female Tourist stated.
"Not really, They all turned out to be fakes," Velma warned.
The group let out a gasp and began to talk amongst themselves.
"Yep. Captain Cutler was just some guy who was hijacking boats, Miner '49er's real name was Hank, Charlie belonged to Mr. Jenkins,who thought it would be easier to run an amusement park with a crazy robot, And Space Kook? Oh, don't get me started! Ooh," Velma notified as two people covered Velma's mouth.
It was Velma's very own parents Angie and Dale Dinkley trying for her not to ruin everything.
"Thank you, Velma, Well, that concludes the terror-ific tour," Dale Dinkley informed.
"Don't forget to stop in at the haunted snack shop for souvenirs and your complimentary undead sipper cup," Angie reminded.
As the tourists nodded and ran off.
"What do you think you were doing?" Angie questioned.
"Are you trying to destroy our business?" Dale asked.
"Reboot, parentals, I was just being honest," Velma commented.
"Those were isolated incidents in Crystal Cove's otherwise-unblemished supernatural past of hauntings and paranormal happenings," Dale warned.
"Your generation's belief, not mine, My generation, we only got one thing on our minds..." Velma replied.
"Solving mysteries and building traps," Fred mentioned having almost the same conversation with his dad at city hall.
"That's two things, Fred," Mayor Jones corrected.
"You know what I mean, Dad, we just want answers, Is that wrong?" Fred wondered.
"Tickling chin whiskers, Fred, the Mayor's son is supposed to set an example,besides I believe you promised me, you and your little posse would show that new kid coming to Crystal Cove a good time don't forget," Mayor Jones stated.
"Don't worry about that, we are going to pick him up before we head to school, as for the setting an example thing,I'm trying, Dad, In fact, just yesterday, I entered one of my traps in the district science fair, it was rejected for not actually having anything to do with science, but--," Fred warned.
"I just don't want you to make a mistake you'll regret," Mayor Jones informed.
"You mean like making a bad trap?" Fred asked.
"No! Life is not all about traps, It's also about..." Mayor Jones lashed out angrily.
"Pancakes, and bacon," Scooby mentioned to him and Shaggy's parents who were also having the same conversation.
"And sausages, and orange juice," Shaggy finished as him and Scooby fed each other.
"Don't forget to chew," Paula whispered.
"And breathe," Colton mumbled.
"Mmm, Like, thanks, Mom and Dad," Shaggy answered.
"Yeah, Thanks, Mom and Dad," Scooby repeated.
"Your mother and I are worried about this mystery phase you're going through, We're not saying find new friends, we're..." Colton warned trying to smooth it over.
"Yes, we are, Find new friends," Paula rephrased bluntly
"Oh, you guys have got nothing to worry about, man, Me and Scoob always play it safe, If there's danger..." Shaggy explained.
"We run, fast, Really fast," Scooby finished.
"And as for our friends, if you guys just gave them a chance, you'd see..." Shaggy responded.
"The gang is misunderstood, we're just solving mysteries, all the kids are doing it," Daphne stated to her parents about the exact same conversation.
"No, they're not," Nan and Barty replied.
"And what about this Fred Jones? Certainly, there must be other boys," Nan mentioned.
"Not like Fred, he's, like, one of those geniuses that no one understands until they're dead,he sees things different, and he wants to catch those different things in his traps," Daphne eludicated to her parents falling head over heels for him just by talking about him.
"Honey, we just want you to go on to have a rich career, like your sisters," Barty notifed pointing to her sisters.
The Sisters were all just standing there striking a pose when they suddenly heard a honk.
"Oh, that's Fred and the gang, gotta go, don't wanna be late for school! Bye, Mom! Bye, Dad! Bye, Daisy! Bye, Dawn! Bye, Dorothy! Bye, Delilah! Daphne announced leaving the house and running into the van.
"Well, we better head to the entrance of Crystal Cove, I promised my dad we would show this new kid around Crystal Cove, ah, there he is, Scooby would you mind getting him," Fred informed.
"Nope," Scooby said as he jumped out of the back of the van and walked to the entrance.
"Huh, they were supposed to be here an hour ago, I wonder where they are," the kid muttered to himself looking up at the sign waiting.
Scooby walked up to him and tapped his shoulder, the kid screamed and turned around.
"Oh sorry, you came out of nowhere, are you supposed to be the one to show me around?" the kid wondered.
"Yeah, the others are over there,follow me,uh, what's your name?" Scooby said.
"Louis, my name is Louis Parker," Louis answered.
"Well, Louis, get in here and we'll show you around after school," Scooby told Louis.
"Oh, um, how am I going to get my wheelchair in there?" Louis questioned.
"Don't worry I got ya," Scooby apprised picking Louis up by his shirt and carrying him into the van.
"Sorry, I know my shirt doesn't taste very good and I always feel like a burden like this," Louis apologized politely.
"No worries, I thought your shirt tasted good, besides, I'm used to carrying people," Scooby notified.
"Like, okay Fred, we're ready to go," Shaggy warned.
"Nice to meet you Louis, I'm Fred, this is Daphne, Shaggy, Velma, and Scooby-Doo," Fred introduced.
"Awesome to meet you all," Louis responded.
"Likewise," Scooby answered.
"Scooby, I like that name," Louis complemented.
"Thanks," Scooby replied.
"No Prob," Louis said with a smile.
Fred started the car and drove towards the school.
Meanwhile in the sewers two workers were working using jackhammers while the other one was on break.
"Hey, you sure you guys don't want any of this Fruitmeir's smoothie? Oh, it's delic- ahhhhh!" Worker 1 asked as he accidentally fell through the wall.
"What the whozit? Which one of you broke that wall?" Worker 1 wondered.
"Wha- we barely touched it," Worker 2 informed.
"Is that another sewer?" Worker 3 mentioned.
"Impossible! There's only one sewer, and we're in it- unless..." Worker 1 disagreed.
"...We've broken into another dimension," Worker 2 stated.
"No, idiot, we've busted through to one of the old Crystal Cove caves," Worker 1 corrected.
The three workers walked into the caves they had discovered, they approached a stack of barrels leaking green ooze, Worker 2 attempted to twist the top of one of the barrels. Unable to open it, he knocked on the lid twice, as he immediately stepped back when it moved.
"Huh, I think there's something in there, What should we do?" Worker 2 warned.
"Well, it's pretty clear, isn't it? Those are radioactive symbols meaning whatever's inside is dangerous, meaning we need to open it right away, we don't want whatever's in there to mess up our schedule," Worker 1 commented.
Worker 1 held up a flashlight while the other two open the barrel with a crowbar.
"Hey, I think I see someth--AAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" Worker 2 said.
As growls and screams echoed through the chamber.
Meanwhile the gang were on their way to school.
Fred and Daphne were sitting in the front seats with Scooby's head sticking out the passenger window, Velma, Shaggy, and Louis were in the back.
"Why didn't you text me last night? I waited up for you, Velma questioned.
Shaggy gulped down his food and replied,"Um, like, me and Scoob ordered a pizza, and then we just fell asleep watching a Vincent Van Ghoul movie," Shaggy explained.
"Who's Vincent Van Ghoul?" Louis wondered.
"Like, you don't know who Vincent Van Ghoul is, that's crazy," Shaggy complained.
"My Grand Mother doesn't let me watch scary movies," Louis replied.
"I'll have to show you some time," Shaggy suggested.
Okay, apology accepted, Velma whispered to Shaggy.
As she walked her fingers up to Shaggy's chest.
"But I still missed you," Velma warned.
She grabbed the front of Shaggy's shirt and pulled him toward her with her lips puckered, Shaggy made a sound of confusion and discomfort, He pulled her hands off his shirt apologetically.
"Not here, Velma,not in public," Shaggy mumbled to Velma trying to be as private as possible.
"Why? Daphne and Fred are going to find out sooner or later, and the kid, well I think he already knows," Velma wondered.
"I'm not worried aboutthem,It's Scooby-Doo; he's my best friend. I wanna break it to him, like, gently, I'm just waiting for the right time!"Shaggy eludicated.
"Yeah, I do, but, don't worry, my lips are sealed," Louis agreed.
"They better be, and how about now - hey, Scoob- "Velma announced to Scooby.
She was interrupted by a manhole cover rocketing into the air, followed by billowing green gas. Fred slammed on the brakes [as the girls shrieked] to avoid getting hit by the projectile. It missed the van by a few feet and slammed into the pavement, where it became stuck. There was a loud fierce growl, and the air around the gang thickened, turning even greener. A mysterious shadowy figure emerged from the sewers, still growling viciously. Daphne screamed in horror, dived across Scooby, and frantically rolled up the window, the creature's hand hit the window less than a second after it was fully closed. Everyone yelled out in alarm, and the creature advanced, it's glowing, green claws outstretched. All of a sudden, the beast's arms shot out a radioactive-looking green substance, grabbed hold of the Mystery Machine and picked it up, shaking the gang around while they scream out of fear and Louis fell to the van floor. As suddenly as it attacked, the beast dropped the van back to the ground, and stalked off. It disappeared into the shadows, under the cover of the green smoke.
Shaggy whimpered and asked, "Like, what was that?!"
"It looks like a mystery to me, and I think that's just a little more important than school!" Fred answered getting out of the van.
"A mystery, that was some sort of creature and isn't school still more important?" Louis complained.
The Gang headed into the hole between the sewer and the Crystal Cove Caves.
Fred shined a flashlight around as the rest of the gang and Louis walked and rolled behind him, the group noticed three barrels covered in green goo marked with radioactive symbols, and approached them.
"These are military, from the oxidation, probably 30, 40, years old," Velma stated.
Daphne pulled out a second flashlight and ventured a few feet from the others, the beam of light revealed a shiny object lying on the ground, She picked it up and took a look at it.
"Hey! Fred, I found something!,"Daphne shouted.
She examined the magnifying glass-shaped object, and accidentally pressed something on the side, causing it to open; inside was a sepia-toned picture of a boy and girl, a little tune plays as Fred walked over.
"Could be a clue, good work, Daphne!" Fred congratulated.
"Thanks, Fred; you're so sweet, but when she looked up again, Fred was already gone, off to investigate further,it's okay...we can talk--later," Daphne said as she walked away.
Scooby was sniffing around looking for clues, along with Shaggy who found a construction hat, he picked it up and looked up.
Louis rolled around looking for something,he saw Shaggy looking up as he also looked up too and covered his mouth in horror by what he was seeing.
Scooby, Velma, Daphne, and Fred then looked up and the beam of light revealed cocoons.
Scooby saw it and stammered and screamed.
The Sheriff arrived and the ambulances came and picked up the bodies.
"Alright, you see what happens, when you kids stick your noses where they don't belong. People get cocooned!!!" Sheriff Stone lashed out angrily.
"Like, Man, we found them like that," Shaggy informed.
"Yeah, they were on the ceiling, we couldn't get them on the ceiling," Louis warned.
"Ah, new member I see, getting eight year olds in your business now, before we know it, we'll have full town full of mystery-solvers," Sheriff Stone commented.
"Sheriff, there was a monster," Daphne mentioned.
"Yeah, it attacked the van," Louis added.
"Boy, from this point forward, this is a crime scene and future tourist attraction, stay out of it!!" Sheriff Stone demanded.
"I got a stay out of it, right here," Velma threatened.
"I didn't think we could punch the Sheriff," Louis notified.
"Oh, we can," Velma muttered to Louis.
"Oh," Louis replied rolling over to the Sheriff.
"I didn't mean for him to do it, oh dear, he is dead," Velma whispered to herself.
Louis rolled to Sheriff Stone and punched him in the nose.
Sheriff Stone picked him up by the shirt and punched him in the nose back as Louis went flying to where the gang were, he landed on the ground right at Scooby's paws.
"Ow, maybe you shouldn't," Louis mumbled.
Scooby looked over Louis's face with a concerned look.
"Are you okay," Scooby asked.
"No, I'm in pain," Louis responded in pain.
Scooby smiled at him and licked Louis's face.
"Hey, that... tickles..." Louis warned in between laughs.
"Feel Better?" Scooby wondered.
"I do now," Louis answered.
"Let me talk to him," Fred suggested.
"Don't worry, Fred will make him understand," Daphne reassured in a flirty voice.
Daphne and Velma turned back to Fred seeing him doing the exact opposite of what Daphne was saying.
"Shaggy, start the car," Fred commanded.
"Like, I thought you were going to talk to him," Shaggy reminded running towards the car.
"He wasn't in a listening mood," Fred informed running with the body over his shoulders.
"So you stole a body, rockin," Velma said as her and Daphne ran to the van and opened the back doors.
Fred threw the body in the back and got in the van's passenger seat.
Scooby ran back to where Louis was, put Louis on his back, and ran back into the van.
Shaggy slammed his foot hard on the accelerator and drove off as fast as the van could take them.
"Don't worry, I know just who can help us," Fred told the gang as he buckled in.
Meanwhile at the school Professor Raffalo was teaching his class.
"Alright, Who can tell me what phototsynthesis is?" Professor Raffalo asked.
As everyone in class raised their hands.
"And please, don't say plant farts," Professor Raffalo added.
As everybody's hands went down and the Professor did a sigh of frustration.
Suddenly Fred and Shaggy burst in carrying the body.
"Professor Raffalo, we need your help," Fred announced.
Once all the students saw the body they grabbed their stuff and ran out of school.
"Couldn't you kids have waited for break," Professor Raffalo commented.
The Professor came over to the body which now laid on the table and he used his stethoscope to see if the man was still alive while the gang stood behind him watching him do it.
"Easy," Shaggy notified.
"No, he's alive, but he appears to be in some sort of dehydrated stasis, I don't know what that means but I guess it's temporary," Professor Raffalo said.
"It means the substance he is in is not only drying him out but it's also keeping him from moving but shouldn't keep him from breathing," Louis explained.
"New Member, I assume, anyway, it's nice to see someone besides Velma interested in Science," Professor Raffalo complemented.
"Thanks," Louis replied.
Scooby licked his lips and said,"Scooby Snacks."
He looked at to see if anyone was paying attention and began to open the cage.
"I wouldn't open that Scooby-Doo," Louis warned.
"It'll be fine," Scooby disagreed as he opened the cage and grabbed the bowl of Scooby Snacks.
The Squirrel that was in the cage turned around,screeched at him, and jumped on Scooby's face and attacked it.
Scooby panicked and started running backwards with his arms swinging in a panicked motion.
Louis rolled after him to help him get it off.
"Do you know what could have done this?" Daphne asked.
"The cocoon material looks organic but I'll need to do further tests, the Sheriff okayed this?" Professor Raffalo questioned.
Scooby fell to the floor and began hitting his head on the floor.
"Just stay still," Louis ordered.
"Okay, now get it off," Scooby demanded.
"I'm trying, man he is really stuck, I can get it, whoa," Louis explained as Scooby started panicking again taking Louis with him leaving Louis's wheelchair near one of the students desks.
"Get off," Scooby commanded.
"Get off of him," Louis directed yanking the squirrel off Scooby's Face as it fell back into the cage and got locked in it.
As the squirrel screeched at them and then turned around.
Scooby stopped panicking as he fell to the floor and Louis got scared by the squirrel's screech and used his elbows to go backwards since he couldn't stand and fell to in between Scooby's arm and chest.
As the two took a moment to catch their breath.
Scooby and Louis looked at each other and chuckled sheepishly.
"Uh, of course he did, what do you think we stole a body, that's rich, Fred responded as he pushed the girls and Shaggy out.
Scooby grabbed Louis put him on his back and they all left.
After leaving, the gang headed to Fruitmeirs for a food break.
"Welcome everyone, to Fruitmeirs, remember, it's not ice cream, it's not yogurt, I really don't know what it is, would anyone like a shrimping boat made out of circus balloons?" Franklin Fruitmeir informed.
"I don't get it all this fuss about, what is this stuff again?" Velma warned as she slowly ate hers.
"I don't think I get it but Shaggy and Scooby seem to like it,thanks for getting me some guys, you really didn't have to," Louis stated as he finished eating his.
"No Problem,Louis," Fred answered.
"You heard Franklin Fruitmeir, it's a secret, that's why they call it..." Shaggy replied.
"Fruitmeirs," Scooby and Shaggy announced as they scarfed down eight things in eight seconds.
"Hey, you know if that cocoon does turn out to be organic, we might have a real, honest- to- goodness monster in Crystal Cove," Fred mentioned.
"My guess is the cocoon is a multi-celled mutation probably a result of radiated allotropes and free radical implosion, What do you think? Shaggy," Velma explained.
"Hey Scooby, I know this might be kind of quick, but, do you wanna be...?" Louis was trying to ask while he was sitting next to him.
"Ah, I think I want more Fruitmeirs," Shaggy responded as he ran, whimpering and all.
"Yeah, me too, uh, maybe you could tell me later," Scooby suggested to Louis as he licked his lips and followed Shaggy.
"Velma, is there something going on between you and Shaggy?" Daphne brought up.
"No, absolutely nothing, why would anything ever be going on between me and Shaggy?" Velma lashed out angrily walking away.
Fred and Daphne looked at one another and smiled.
"Well, looks like it's just us, all alone, maybe we could go for a drive and talk about that pretty locket I found, I wonder, what it would be like to get such a romantic present," Daphne said walking towards the van.
"Oh, come on Daphne, you know you don't care about that girly stuff, that's why we're such good friends, I'll drop you off back home I want to get started on that new trap for the monster," Fred replied opening the door for Daphne.
Louis just felt like he was in the way but also saw what she really meant, that she liked him.
Daphne didn't say another word just got in, and mumbled, "Yeah, good luck with that."
"Hey, you coming?" Fred asked closing Daphne's door and getting in the driver's side.
"Oh yeah, of course," Louis answered happily rolling towards the van as Fred came out and helped him, then went back in, started the car and drove off.
As the car drove off the monster watched from the sewers.
Meanwhile back at the school Professor Raffalo was still studying the material until he noticed something closer then turned around.
"Ah, is someone there?" Professor Raffalo wondered.
The Professor checked outside his office and saw the janitor just mopping, he nodded his head and walked back into the classroom.
The Janitor continued mopping until he heard Professor Raffalo's scream, the janitor looked around the room but saw nothing, and left but what he didn't notice was that Professor Raffalo was on the ceiling covered in the same substance as the workers.
"Yeah, Crystal Cove, that was the Rotten Brains with their single, The Zombie House Wife Blues, I'm Angel Dynamite and this is K Cool 101.4 on your am dial," Angel explained putting another record on the record player.
As Shaggy knocked on the door and Angel came to let them in.
"I was wondering when ya'll was gonna show up, he's in the back," Angel stated as she led them to the back and opened the door.
"Hi, I'm Louis," Louis whispered.
"Ah, You guys have a fifth member now uh, interesting, I'm Angel Dynamite," Angel replied.
The gang walked in seeing him asleep.
"Fred, it's us, we're here for you," Daphne mumbled.
Scooby came up to him and licked his hair.
"It's no use, gang, I was the on who stole the body and Professor Raffalo paid the price I should have listened to my dad and stayed out of any new mysteries," Fred complained.
"We all helped steal the body, Fred," Velma added.
"Well, I actually never took part and ow, okay, fine, we all took part, Freddy," Shaggy was about to mention until Velma elbowed him in the chest.
"Fred Jones, you've never backed down from a mystery in your life," Daphne informed.
"I've got nothing!!!" Fred shouted.
"Fred, are you really gonna back down and let more people get cocooned," Louis notified.
"Man up, Fred, we still have our first clue, the cocoon, I brought a sample, Scooby, What are you doing? " Velma said noticing Scooby eating it.
"What? it's Fruitmeirs, yummy," Scooby wondered continuing to eat it.
"Ew," Velma complained.
"Check it out, if that dog mutates, I'm putting it down, dig," Angel commented.
"Wait a sec," Louis muttered rolling over to Scooby.
Scooby saw Louis coming over and put his finger in it and gave it over to Louis.
"Hm, yeah, guys, it's Fruitmeirs," Louis warned licking Scooby's finger and noticing it.
"Ew, you just licked Scooby's finger," Velma stated disgusted.
"So?" Louis and Scooby questioned.
"Never Mind," Velma complained to herself.
"Like, hold on, I think I get it, Shaggy agreed walking over to the table and putting his finger in it and licking it.
"Ew," They all whined.
"No, you guys, it's Fruitmeirs, the cocoon is made from the same stuff as Fruitmeirs dessert," Shaggy eludicated.
"Yeah, try it," Louis ordered putting his finger in it and telling them to try it.
Scooby saw Louis swinging his finger around and around Scooby's face accidentally just using his hand to talk, so Scooby opened his mouth and put Louis's whole hand where the Fruitmeirs dessert was on in his mouth.
Louis looked at Scooby weirded out as Scooby sucked on it and then took it out.
"What!!!" they all yelled.
All of them came over and tasted it.
"They're right but if the cocoon is made of Fruitmeirs dessert..." Daphne was saying until Shaggy interrupted her.
"That means if we capture the monster, we can have our own shop and we can have an endless supply of Fruitmeirs dessert, oh boy," Shaggy mentioned drooling just thinking about it.
"No, it means that slime mutant may not be a monster at all, What do we know about Franklin Fruitmeir?" Fred explained.
"Franklin Fruitmeir, showed up in town out of nowhere two months ago, before that nothing, he's hiring right now for female servers," Velma read at the computer.
"Then that's our end," Fred responded.
"If the girls can get jobs at Fruitmeirs, they can snoop around and find out more, great idea," Shaggy commented.
"Great Idea Shag," Fred congratulated.
"Uh, like, uh, this isn't exactly what I had in mind, Why are Scooby and me dressed like girls? When Velma and Daphne are girls," Shaggy complained.
"Yeah, my skirts too tight," Scooby added.
"Because Velma and I refused," Daphne warned.
Scooby and Shaggy grumbled when they heard that.
"It's okay Scooby, I think you look cute in it," Louis complemented.
"Thank you, I'll do it," Scooby agreed.
"Good job, with flattery," Velma muttered to Louis.
"Thanks, my grandmother said, flattery is the best way to go," Louis mumbled.
Once the shop was closed Fruitmeir was leaving.
"Good Night girls, don't forget to lock u u up," Franklin reminded.
"Good night, Mr. Fruitmeir," Scooby and Shaggy answered as Mr. Fruitmeir walked out.
Louis, Fred, Daphne, and Velma snuck to the door and knocked quietly.
As Shaggy got the door and let them in.
"Alright, gang, fan out, see if you can find anything that can tie Franklin Fruitmeir to the slime mutant," Fred ordered as Daphne gave Shaggy his clothes and they all split up.
Fred looked in a cupboard, Velma looked in a gore, and Daphne checked out a room that had a locked door.
She rattled the knob but couldn't get in.
"Hm, must be a key around her somewhere," Daphne mentioned walking away to find one.
Scooby and Shaggy burst out of a container that was full of Fruitmeirs.
"All clear," Scooby shouted.
Shh, Scooby keep it down, and you are covered in Fruitmeirs, Louis warned.
Scooby grabbed Louis by his shirt and got him in there with him.
"Now so are you," Scooby said.
"Hey, now I'm all wet, Scooby," Louis informed with a chuckle.
"Yeah?" Scooby wondered.
"Do you wanna be frien..." Louis was about to ask until Shaggy interrupted him.
"Let's check over there, Scoob," Shaggy commanded.
"Shaggy, you interrupted, Louis, What were you going to ask?" Scooby complained.
"Nah, it's not important, I'll tell you later," Louis replied.
Shaggy, Scooby and Louis walked and rolled to the door.
Shaggy tugged on the knob but couldn't open it.
Scooby took out a claw and unlocked it.
"Wow, your claws do come in handy," Louis complemented.
Scooby gave him a slight smile as Shaggy opened the door revealing the Slime Mutant.
The Creature roared and attempted to grab them.
Scooby put Louis on his back and they ran.
"Run Scoob," Shaggy demanded.
Daphne came back with the keys and saw it unlocked and gasped.
"That's strange, this closet was locked a minute ago, hey , what gives? let me out, let me out," Daphne stated banging on the door.
"Daphne, hold on, we'll get you out," Fred reassured as him and Velma tried to open it as they forced it open.
Suddenly Shaggy, Louis, and Scooby came around running and screaming and ran right into Daphne making Louis under Scooby but over Shaggy.
"Are you two insane," Velma questioned.
"M- Monster, like, right behind us," Shaggy notified.
"Monster, there's no monster," Fred informed.
"Jinkies, where's Daphne?" Velma asked.
Scooby got up, put Louis back on his back, and Shaggy got up.
"Daphne," They all shouted.
"Down Here, I'm down here, I'm okay but you better get down here, I think I found something," Daphne yelled.
"This is the same cave we were in, the other day," Fred mentioned.
"It must run right underneath Fruitmeirs," Velma guessed.
"And check this out, someones been digging," Daphne added.
"Hold on a second, according to my GPS Program this hole is only 20 yards from Fruitmeirs that would put it," Velma explained.
"Directly underneath Crystal Cove Bank," They all said.
"I'm surpised, I knew that, Louis commented.
"I'm not, you're very smart," Scooby complemented.
"Aw," Louis answered.
"Dude, like, why would aslime mutantbust a hole through Fruitmeirs to get into a bank," Shaggy wondered.
"Maybe it's hungry," Scooby stated.
"Yeah, hungry for money," Fred finished.
"I smell a trap coming on," Velma said.
"Huh, how could you smell a trap?" Louis questioned.
As they all face palmed themselves.
The Slime Mutant walked into the hole passing by Fred behind the barrels.
"Hey, ugly over here," Fred demanded.
The Slime Mutant turned around and blasted at him as Fred ducked and moved and started running as the mutant chased after him constantly missing.
"No, stupid over here," Velma commanded as she ran and it chased after her instead.
"No, over here," Louis ordered as he rolled away as it chased him.
Suddenly the mutant slimed his wheels to his wheelchair, picked him up off his wheelchair and threw him onto the ground knocking him out temporarily.
"Wrong again," Daphne warned as it chased her.
While it was chasing Daphne Fred checked on the others.
"Everything ready?" Fred wondered.
"Ready," Scooby agreed.
"Now," Fred commanded.
As the trap began to do it's thing, the Slime Mutant hit the ground with his slime making Daphne slip, Fred looked worried and looked on how the trap was going, the mutant tried to get her and saw the anvil coming and avoided it.
Scooby went and grabbed Louis who now woke up and put him on his back, then walked back to where the others were.
"This is going to be awesome," Fred cheered.
The trap finished hitting the cage and missed the mutant and landed on them.
As they all gasped.
Scooby stood up and put Louis in the front and Scooby put his arms around Louis's waist holding him up.
The Slime Mutant slimed them and as Daphne looked and saw them trapped she looked back and saw the mutant there, she then screamed and ran.
"Daphne, run," Velma ordered.
Daphne jumped out of the hole to leave to safety the mutant barely missing grabbing her.
The others continued struggling to get out.
"Louis eat up," Scooby commanded.
"On it," Louis replied.
"Wait, you guys knew my plan wouldn't work?" Fred interrogated.
"No, this was just a fail safe, me and Scooby planned it just in case and it looks like it came in handy," Louis informed as he ate it until Scooby was free.
"Eat up gang, it's Fruitmeirs," Fred reminded as they all started eating it.
Daphne tried to run out the door but it slimed it and got really close to her face as she freaked out she still went underneath it.
She continued running until it slimed her legs and almost got her but suddenl Fruitmeirs blasted it to the wall making it stuck.
Daphne looked to see who saved her and saw them all except Louis holding the hose.
Daphne got it off her leg and ran to Fred.
"Fred you saved me," Daphne said.
"Not right now Daphne,I have to figure out why my trap didn't work," Fred warned.
"What is going on here?" Sheriff Stone questioned bursting through the door.
"Why is it sounds the latest tourist attraction cocooned to the wall?" Mayor Jones asked.
"Dad, Sheriff, hold on, you don't understand, that is not a monster," Fred informed.
"No, hopping steam clams, Fred, then what is it?" Mayor Jones interrogated.
Scooby walked back to the hole where Louis was laying.
"You wanna come out?" Scooby asked.
"Yeah," Louis answered.
As Scooby came down and got him then they came back up to answer the question.
"Franklin Fruimeir," They all insisted.
"He was trying to rob Crystal Cove Bank," Velma explained.
"Ah, that's impossible, Franklin Frutmeir is the one who called us," Sherrif Stone corrected.
"What?" They all shouted.
"Yeah, I already knew who it was and that it wasn't him but I let you guys figure it out," Louis commented.
"I was making clipper ship out of circus balloons when the silent alarm went on at home, ohmy gracious, what is that? Franklin Fruitmeir eludicated.
"But if the monster isn't Franklin Fruitmeir, then dude, who is it?" Shaggy wondered.
Scooby walked over to the mutant as him and Louis both touched it.
"Oh, sorry, you wanna do the honors?" Louis asked.
"Let's both," Scooby suggested.
"The mutant is the one and only..." Louis said.
"Professor Emmanuel Raffalo," They all yelled in unison.
"That's right, I was trying to scare people away from the sewers while I dug my way into the bank and got rich," Professor Raffalo admitted.
"But you have a job as a teacher, Why do you need more money?" Daphne questioned.
"Oh yeah, yeah, I get it," They all stated,
"I discovered the Crystal Cove Caves were connected to the sewer by accident while collecting mold for my class, once I realized the caves led right underneath the bank, I put my plan into motion, Fruitmeirs gave me secret access to the sewer so I decided to frame Balloon Boy for the crime by using his disgusting dessert, I staged my own disappearance to throw doubt on any hint of my involvement, it was genius until you, you," Professor Raffalo explained.
"Meddling," Sheriff Stone guessed.
As Scooby put Louis back on his wheel chair.
"Yes, meddling, meddling kids and your blasted dog ruined everything," Professor Raffalo complained.
"Hey, he's not blasting, he is adorable and the best dog ever," Louis stated.
"Aw, thank you," Scooby responded as he put his paws on Louis's shoulders and licked his face.
"Hey, that tickles, stop, hey, that tickles," Louis warned laughing feeling how much Scooby's tongue tickled.
"Wait, what about this locket? we found it where you were digging," Daphne interrogated.
Mayor Jones quietly gasped recognizing it and ignored it.
"Never seen it before," Professor Raffalo stated.
"Alright, well, kids we do owe you kids a thanks you did save the bank although you also washed this town a revenue stream, stream of revenue," Sheriff Stone complained.
Fred dropped Louis off at his home to grab something real quick.
Louis rolled into his house to grab it.
"Why are you with them? " Louis's grandmother asked.
"Because they are my new friends," Louis answered
"Mystery Incorporated is not to be trusted, stay away from them," Louis's grandmother warned shouting at him.
"What the heck, I finally get some actual friends and now you are trying to get rid of them, the moment, I get home you start yelling st me, you may not trust them but I do," Louis yelled.
"Especially don't trust the animals, they always stab you in the back," Louis's grandmother notified.
"There is nothing wrong with Scooby, Scooby is my best friend," Louis stated.
"For one, he'll act like your friend but that doesn't mean he is and two, he is just this year's edition, there will be another one just like him next year,three, you can't even get him to listen long enough," Louis's grandmother mentioned.
"How did you? what's going on?" Louis questioned.
"None of your concern," Louis's grandmother insisted.
"Then don't expect me home for awhile,Fred drive," Louis informed.
They stopped at Angel's radio station.
Shaggy and Scooby were playing DJ, Velma was looking through records but Daphne was still thinking about the locket.
"I just don't get it if this locket didn't belong to Professor Raffalo, then who?" Daphne asked.
Scooby noticed Louis quiet and walked up to him.
"You okay, you are pretty quiet," Scooby mentioned.
"Yeah,I'm fine my grandmother was just being a jerk and she just yelled at me for no reason," Louis replied.
"You can stay at our house for awhile," Scooby suggested.
"Thanks Scooby, you are a good friend," Louis responded.
"We're not friends yet we barely know each other, Scooby warned.
"I was just kidding," Louis lied.
Scooby chuckled and responded,"good one, I just wanted to say we're having you on the team, they said since you did excellent."
"Oh, my gosh, that's awesome," Louis cheered.
The phone suddenly rang and Shaggy answered it.
"Like, this is K Cool, 101.4, what can we scare up for you daddy-o?" Shaggy wondered.
"You're all doomed," the voice stated.
"Like, who, who is this?" Shaggy questioned after that everyone gathered around the phone to pay attention.
"You can call me Mr. E, you should never have brought that locket out of the caves, you don't know what you've uncovered," Mr. E explained.
"Uncovered, uncovered what?" Daphne interrogated.
"The truth that should have remained hidden, the truth behind the curse of Crystal Cove," Mr. E said.
"What do you want creep?" Louis shouted.
"And you , you don't belong on this team, get out, there should always be four not five,leave and never return and stay away from the dog and believe me when I say this the real Mystery has just begun," Mr.E eludicated.
Louis felt a sudden scared feeling after he heard that.
"Scooby- Dooby- Doo," Scooby whispered.
