Let's get going with another new chapter! Anyway, enjoy!

EIGHT YEARS AGO...

After running away from the mysterious creature that appeared in front of them and diving into a nearby bush, the three kids dressed as superheroes were panting a little as Daphne, AKA Gorgeous Gal peeked out from the bush, keeping an eye peeled for the monster.

"Could this be what Scooby and Shaggy saw earlier?" Daphne thought to herself as she looked around. She then noticed her hair out of place as she looked horrified. She turned her head to look back at Scooby and Shaggy, who were covering their eyes out of fright and shaking in fear, with Scooby saying, "Rease, rease, rease..." over and over.

Feeling relieved, she quietly snuck out of the bush and made sure she was at least a few feet away. "Jenkins!"

As if by magic, a butler came zooming by as he stood at attention. "Yes, Miss Blake?"

"My brush and mirror, quick!" Daphne whispered as the butler handed her a hair brush and hand mirror. Daphne quickly looked at the hand mirror and gasped at the fact that there were at least a couple thorny branches from withing her hair, messing it up. As quick as a flash, she brushed her hair out of the offending branches as she settled her hair down giving a small sigh of relief. "Also, do you have that spare box of Mellow Mutt Munchies? I may have grabbed the usual box of Scooby Snacks by mistake."

Jenkins zoomed out and in a quick second as he held a dark blue box in his hand. Giving a smirk, Daphne pulled out the blue and green box that Scooby always loved and traded them in for the Mellow Mutt Munchies box. "Okay, just put the box I handed you back at our treehouse. That'll be all, Jenkins."

"Of course, Miss Blake." Jenkins said as the girl watched her butler rush out. She couldn't help but smile as she quickly pocketed the box in her utility purse.

"Sometimes, it pays to have rich parents." The young girl said to herself as she quietly snuck back to the bush where the cowardly Commander Cool and Mellow Mutt were shaking and covering their eyes.

"Sh-" Daphne started to say, before realizing she almost spoiled his so-called secret identity to him, and gave a small cough. "Commander Cool, take a few deep breaths now. You too, Mellow Mutt. We can't just sit in this bush forever, you know."

"B-b-b-but you saw that monster too, right?" Shaggy asked as he poked one eye out and looked out from the bush. "That weird clock shaped face..."

"Rose rings..." Scooby shook even more.

"Looking like some sort of stitched up creature from another dimension!" Shaggy gulped. "I don't think we're qualified for this..."

"But Commander Cool, you forget something important..." Daphne smirked. "All three of us are superheroes... and as superheroes, our job is to make peace and make sure all evil-doers, humans and creatures alike, get their just desserts, right?"

"Commander Cool" frowned as he turned over to the girl. "But, like, what does getting dessert have to do wi-"

But once again, "Commander Cool" found himself feeling a little wobbly around the legs as he stared into the sweet, caring eyes of "Gorgeous Gal" as she fluttered them towards the young boy. "Listen, Commander Cool, I know this is a little unexpected, even for us, but we can't just lay around forever. As heroes, it's our job to get justice, and no monster is going to stand in our way! Besides, I'm sure there's a logical explanation for this weird happenstance."

"Commander Cool" paused as he stared lovingly into the beautiful girl's eyes, before giving a small cough as he stood up. "You're right, Gorgeous! I don't know what I was thinking. We can't be running around like chickens with our heads cut off!"

"I certainly hope not." "Gorgeous Gal" wretched in disgust. "The last thing I want is to see that ghastly image on my mind..."

"Irregardless, we can't just stand aside, letting whatever creature runs around. We're brave, we're fearsome, we're..."

"Raying right rere." Scooby said, covering his eyes.

"Come on, Mellow Mutt, don't give out on us now." Daphne said with a smirk as she pulled out her utility purse and opened it. "You know, I've been saving something like this in case of an emergency..."

"What are you planning to do?" "Commander Cool" asked, cocking his head curiously at the lovely lady.

"Gorgeous Gal" gave a smirk as she pulled out a familiar blue box. "Oh Mellow Mutt, look what I have."

Scooby peeked one eye out to see the box that the smiling "Gorgeous Gal" was holding... and all fear had been forgotten as he sat down happily. "Roh roy! Rellow Runt Runchies!"

"Help us with this case, and you can have the whole box." Daphne smirked as she pulled out a treat and waved it in front of the dog.

"Reah, reah!" Scooby eagerly nodded.

"I knew you'd join us. Here's one for the road." Daphne giggled as she put the treat in Scooby's mouth.

Upon tasting the treat, "Mellow Mutt" started to react accordingly as he hummed happily, rubbing his body in pure ecstasy... before somehow morphing into a rocket ship which blasted into the sky and created fireworks. Shaggy and Daphne could only watch as the Great Dane puppy was floating down on the ground like a leaf, feeling satisfied as he settled himself down on the ground.

"Gorgeous Gal" couldn't help but shake her head as she put the box of treats back in her purse and nodded towards the boys. "All right. Let's get into that house, and this time, no clock monster is going to stand in our way!"

"Commander Cool" nodded as he and Scooby started to walk together, Shaggy wearing a stupid grin all the way as he turned to his friend, "What did I tell you, Scoob? Whoever this "Gorgeous Gal" is, she certainly studied up on her and knows your weaknesses!"

"Rhmmmm..." Scooby paused as Shaggy sighed, little hearts starting to surround the boy. Scooby noticed this, much to his annoyance as he waved the little hearts away from his best friend.

Pretty soon, after making sure that monster wasn't around, the young cosplaying superhero trio cautiously entered the door and decided to sneak in, "Gorgeous Gal" leading as she turned towards the two superheros behind her. "How are you holding up?"

"Rine/Like, fine." Both heroes said at the same time, giving them firm nods.

Daphne couldn't help but give a small grin as the three stood in the middle of the room. "I wonder what Fred would say if we were in this situation... hmmm... oh, wait!"

"Well, you two, maybe it would be for the best if we split up and searched the house." "Gorgeous Gal" said.

"That way, we have, like, more ground to cover. Great idea." Shaggy grinned. "Mellow Mutt, do you think you can go to the left?"

"Ruh?" "Mellow Mutt" asked in surprise, wondering how he was stuck alone in the split up plan.

"Don't worry, pal, I'm sure you'll find some great clues on your own!" Shaggy grinned. "Besides, I'm sure "Gorgeous" here will want my intellect if we are to get anywhere..."

This really surprised Daphne as Shaggy moved in close with her, giving a small grin. She couldn't even ponder why Shaggy would rather go with her than with Scooby, but for some reason, she couldn't find herself complaining. After all, she was pretty new at this leading job. She gave a nod. "Probably for the best, Commander Cool. Sorry, Mellow Mutt, but I'm sure we can trust you."

With a smile, she opened her purse and pulled out the box of Mellow Mutt Munchies and handed them to the Great Dane puppy. "If you feel like you're nervous, just help yourself. You'll be fine."

"Roh... rokay." Mellow Mutt said, a little disappointed as he watched Shaggy go off with "Gorgeous Gal", before going off on his own, looking around in the mansion. As Scooby started to explore, he caught the scent of something... delicious. Something... buttery, like...
