The family are on an island vacation, they are spending the day scuba diving near a coral reef.
"Look, boys," Muriel called out to the trio, as she looked through the book that she had brought with her. For some strange reason, that is still dry and intact even though they are underwater. "Isn't all this coral beautiful?"
"Mm-hmm," Courage answered, as they all swam over to her.
"Like, totally Aunt Muriel," Shaggy agreed.
"Reah," Scooby added, with a chuckle.
Eustace, wasn't paying attention to his wife, he was looking for treasure. "GET OUT OF MY WAY!" he shouted, as he struggled to remove a starfish from a rock. After a few more attempts, he finally managed to pry the starfish off the rick.
Shaggy was snicking at his unfortunate uncle, "Looking for starfish Uncle Eustace?"
"Oh your such a comedian, eh?" Eustace asked, sarcastically. "I'm looking for treasure, so don't interfere Shaggy-haired-fella."
Shaggy shrugged his shoulders. There's just no stopping him..
Eustace swam back to the rock, which had a small cave in it. "Treasure, where are you?"
Eustace then screamed in pain, as he exited the cave to reveal that a giant blue eel had attacked him and broke through his helmet.
Muriel meanwhile, was trying to find the names of the plants she found. And a few feet from her were, Shaggy, Scooby and Courage, Courage was holding a giant magnifying glass.
"Look at the sea anemone," Muriel answered, while pointing to the orange predatory animal that kind of looks like a plant. Strangely enough, it retracted into itself when she pointed at it.
"Whoa!" Shaggy exclaimed.
"Look at the sea urchins," Muriel said, while pointing to the small blue spiky animals.
Scooby's curiosity got the better of him, when he went over to touch the sea urchin, that proved to be a mistake. "Row!"
"But don't touch it," Muriel finished.
"Rorry," Scooby apologized, as he rubbed his paw in pain.
"Ooh, look at the little people having tea,"Muriel said.
"Huh?" Courage asked, not understanding what his owner meant.
"What do you mean?" Shaggy asked, confused.
Courage then moved his magnifying glass to where Muriel was pointing at, and sure enough, he, Shaggy and Scooby did see TINY BLUE PEOPLE having tea. They then began to wave at them before resuming their supposed tea party.
Shaggy, Scooby and Courage screamed, so loud that their helmets came off from the intense pressure behind the scream. The water crashed into their noses, mouth and ears.
The three then quickly began swimming for the surface, gulping salt water, their lungs burned and screamed for air.
The three jumped out of the water, gulped for air and landed on a sandcastle.
"Phew, okay that's enough scuba diving for one day," Courage felt really groggy, but he pushed himself up
"You said it little pink dude," Shaggy coughed.
"Reah," Scooby gasped, in between breaths.
Later that evening at dinner, the family were talking about the 'wee people' they saw today.
"You're crazy, there ain't no little people,"Eustace mocked.
"I saw them, Eustace," Muriel told him.
"Like, they're totally real!" Shaggy exclaimed, despite knowing that it was pointless to argue against Eustace.
"What kind of little people? Little people like this dog?" Eustace mocked again, while pointing at Courage.
"I can hear everything you say you know," Courage admonished, he then try to crack open a lobster claw.
Scooby then try to assist him, they tried to pry open the claw with their paws, only for the claw to clamp down on their arms, making them scream in pain.
"Idiot dogs," Eustace mocked.
"Adorable, wee little things, they were," Muriel answered.
"Bah!" Eustace dismissed her.
"You can come with us tomorrow, Eustace, and see for yourself," Muriel offered.
"No way! Ain't going back in the water, ain't even going in the bathtub," Eustace exclaimed, while folding his arms.
"Suit yourself, I'm going to bed," Muriel said, before getting up and heading back to the hut.
The next morning, Shaggy, Scooby, Courage and Muriel all got their scuba gear and getting ready to go back in the water, while Eustace continue his fruitless search for buried treasure.
The beeping sound came from the metal detector as it picked up the pie tin Courage was holding.
"Ah, only a stupid pie tin," Eustace complained while taking off his headset.
"Why don't you come with us to give the wee people this pie I made?" Muriel asked as she pointed to the pie.
"Ain't no such thing as wee people, anyway, I'm looking for buried treasure," Eustace answered, before putting the headset back on and leaving.
"Okay, suit yourself," Muriel relented, before turning back to the trio. "Come on boys, let's go say hello to the wee people."
"I hope they're friendly," Shaggy said, worrying they might be a threat to him and his family. He adjusted his helmet while he and his family walked into the waters.
Courage curled his lips into his mouth and bit them, Shaggy just said exactly what he was thinking. He felt overwhelming fear gripping him, from what he and his family experience, it could be just little hungry cannibals waiting to eat their flesh.
His heart started to pound faster and faster, as he thought about what horrible things that could happen to them if they met the little people. What if they wanted to sacrifice us to some god or something? What if they try to kill us by poking holes in our oxygen tanks and drown us with no way out?
Scooby rotated his head and could see that the little pink beagle looked worried, "Rourage, are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine," Courage lied, trying to keep his voice steady.
"Oh, Courage, Shaggy, Scooby, look!" Muriel said, when she and her family spotted the tiny blue people coming out of some coral.
Carefully looking at the little people, the family noticed that they were pointing at something off in the distance while motioning for them to follow them. Shrugging, the family decided to follow the little people, although Courage whined a little feeling his heart lurch in his chest.
After a couple of minutes, the family came across a giant pink clam shell, but what caught the family off guard was that as they neared it, it seemingly opened up as if it sensed their presence.
Muriel swam over to the clam, as it began to close.
"Wait for us Aunt Muriel!" Shaggy cried out, as he and his best friends swam inside the clam as well.
The family continued to grow even more surprised, for as they neared the city, the family could hear people singing.
"No way…look," Shaggy gasped in both shock and awe at what he was seeing.
"Rever seen anything like this?" Scooby asked amazed.
"No this is a first, have you guys?" Courage shook his head.
"Like no, first time for us too little pink dude," Shaggy smiled in amazement.
The family passed by a group of tiny blue people playing various instruments that made beautiful music, the family neared a pedestal with what looked like the king of these little blue people.
"Welcome to Coralville, large strangers," the little blue person wearing a hat greeted us as the family neared him. "We are the coralites."
"How lovely it is to meet you all, I made you this pie," Muriel told them, as Courage placed the pie on the floor.
"PIE!" the coralites shouted in joy, Courage flinched and grimaced as he back away when the coralites swam over and practically devouring the pie, leaving nothing left aside from a tiny crumb.
But as soon as the others left, a female baby coralite swam to the pie tin and ate the crumb. She then swam up to Courage and let out a massive smelly burp, that blew over Courage.
"Excuse me," she said, before swimming away while giggling.
"Eugh! Your excused," Courage said, wrinkling his nose and squinting his eyes.
"Like, those coral creatures know how to eat," Shaggy offered.
"Just like you and Scooby," Courage added, looking Shaggy right in the eye.
Scooby frowned guilty, "Rhat? Re can't help it."
Courage rolled his eyes at the tall shaggy teenager and the brown black-spotted Great Dane, "Knowing you two, you never say no to food."
"Would you all like a tour of the Great Hall of Coral History?" the lead coralite asked.
"We'd be honored," Muriel answered.
The leader then motioned for the family to follow him, nodding, the family followed him down a few halls to one that held many different paintings.
"Our history begins with our founder and forefather, Ezra Jedediah Coral," the leader said, as he showed them a painting of their leader that surprisingly had a beard and fur hat. "With a single piece of coral, Ezra began building this reef, he started a family, and his family and the coral grew and grew into what you see today."
"Like, wow," Shaggy commented, feeling fascinated by the history of the coralites' way of life. The family swam passed by a giant gold statue of Ezra.
"It is endless work to keep this place standing, but we work hard to ensure our history continues," the leader answered, as the family continued to swim down the tunnel back to the city made out of coral. The family reached the city again, with the singing growing louder.
There's no time to rest on Laurels
When we must repair the coral
Singing helps the work go by faster
Share the shells and pass the plaster
"Ratchy song," Scooby spoke up. Rand such a nice city too. He added to himself
"Mm-hmm," Courage agreed, as he lightly bobbed his head to the beat of the music.
"We are the last of our kind," the leader said, getting the dogs' attention. "Without this reef, we would all disappear."
"Like, that's terrible little mayor dude," Shaggy said with great sadness and horror, upon realizing this city was hidden behind a giant clam.
"This reef took thousands of years to build, and we are still repairing it to this day," the leader told the family.
"Can we help you?" Muriel asked.
"We'd be honored," the leader answered.
Muriel then turned to the three best friends, "What do you say boys?"
"Rure," Scooby answered, with a nod.
"Like, we be honored to help out, you in Courage?" Shaggy asked, the little pink beagle.
Courage smiled at his best friends, "Well why not? We be honored to help."
"Let's get started," the leader declared.
An hour later, the family were helping the coralites building part of their city, all the while singing the joyful song the coralites were singing.
There's no time to rest on Laurels
When we must repair the coral
Singing makes the work go faster
Share the shells and pass the plaster
Suddenly, everything started shaking as of something crashed into the place, this spooked Shaggy, Scooby and Courage. The coralites screamed as they tried to save any of the coral structures they could.
"Rhat's that sound?" Scooby asked anxiously, before covering his head from falling rocks and coral.
"WE'RE UNDER ATTACK!" a coralite shouted before swimming to help others save the coral structures.
"What?" the coral leader asked, shocked and confused.
The coral leader, then motioned for the family to follow him to see what was happening. Swimming over to the wall on the opposite side of the room, the family peered through a window and saw that a SUBMARINE with a GIANT CLAW mouth was attacking the reef.
"This is not good, this is not good at all!" Courage screamed, "Or my name is Gilbert Gottfried, and it's not"
"Courage, Shaggy, Scooby, we can't let this happen!" Muriel said before heading towards the entrance.
Once there, the family steeled themselves before exiting through the giant clam shell to confront the person, and the trio could not help but feel their nerves strained when they saw precisely who was attacking the reef.
Swimming to the top of the submarine, the family prepared themselves for the pointless arguing that was about to happen.
"GET OUT OF THE-YOU!" Ma shouted, before realizing who she was shouting at.
"Zoinks! It's Great Aunt Ma," Shaggy exclaimed in shock.
"Have you lost your mind?" Muriel asked, disappointed. "There are wee people living here."
"They've been working hard on building their home," Shaggy added in a stern tone.
"Rand you wanna take away their home!?" Scooby exclaimed crossly.
"Your just as bad as your son!" Courage flashed at Ma.
"The boys are right, we won't let you destroy them and their beautiful coral!" Muriel declared, not back down.
"They'll look more beautiful on people's heads when it makes me rich," Ma said before laughing.
Anger rose up in Scooby, how could Ma be so heartless?
"Courage, Scooby, go get Eustace, tell him his mother is here and she's gone mad," Muriel told the dogs.
"On it/Ron it," Scooby and Courage both barked in unison, with firm nods, as they started to swim back to shore.
Shaggy turned to Ma and saw she had an evil look in her eyes, he started to tremble.
"Time to turn the those dogs into puppy chow for sharks!" Ma Bagge declare. "Torpedo away!"
Shaggy gasped, and shouted to the dogs, "Scooby! Little pink dude! Look out!"
Scooby spun around and he saw that Ma launched a torpedo at the two dogs.
"Rikes!" Scooby yelped out.
Courage also screamed in absolute horror, when he saw the torpedo. Luckily, it seemed that fate was looking out for the two dogs as the torpedo missed them by centimeters. However, despite it missing Scooby and Courage it did take them for a ride.
"Rold on!" Scooby shouted out to Courage.
All Scooby and Courage could do was hang on to the torpedo and scream helplessly as the torpedo took them for a ride through Coralville.
Meanwhile, Shaggy and Muriel guard the coral city, as it was started to be demolish by Ma. The coralites panicked, as rock and pieces of coral were falling onto them.
"Stay calm," the leader said, as he tried to keep his citizens calm.
Although, Shaggy could hear panic in his voice. His heart was pounding really hard. Like, please hurry guys. He thought.
Back to the surface of the water, Scooby and Courage skidded on the torpedo, until we reached the shoreline where they both got off.
Eustace screamed when he spotted the torpedo going right at him, he immediately started running away before realizing that wasn't going to work and jumped over the torpedo. However, as if to spite him, the torpedo slid along a coconut tree and went right back to him where it exploded. "Stinking lousy dogs!" And to add salt to the wound, the coconuts landed on Eustace.
"Well, I don't think he's gonna be much help anymore," Courage barked. Which I guess is just as well, since he never listens to us anyway.
"Rou can say that again," Scooby agreed, while trying not to laugh at Eustace, who is buried under coconuts.
Scooby then noticed a giant plane, that Eustace had been digging, "Rourage look."
Courage looked down to see where Scooby was pointing, and saw the plane as well, suddenly an idea struck him. "Yes! With this plane we can use it to stop Ma and save the coralites."
"Rhat's perfect!" Scooby shouted.
The two dogs grabbed the equipment and put it on before heading over to the plane. Luckily, after getting in, Scooby and Courage learned that not only was it still fully operational, it had a full tank of gas and was fully stocked in ammo. Knowing that Courage was the better pilot, he took control while Scooby operated the guns. Strapping themselves in and turning on the plane, the two dogs prepared themselves for the fight that was about to happen.
"Ret's ride," Scooby proclaimed boldly and bravely.
After a few seconds, the aircraft was in the water, and they're on their way to confront Ma.
Back in Coralville, Ma was almost through the city, with her sub.
"Oh, Courage, where are ya?" Muriel asked, fearing for her new friends.
"Scooby-Doo, where are you!?" Shaggy let out a scream of terror and despair. This was not just his death, but the end of his aunt and the coralites. The dogs are not going to make it in time.
Back outside, the plane was coming closer to Ma's submarine.
"Ready?'" Courage asked as Ma came into view.
"Ready," Scooby answered while beginning to fire at Ma, however, only a few shots managed to hit her submarine, but it did get her attention.
"YOU!" Ma screamed before having her submarine back out of the coral village.
"We're back!" Courage shouted, glaring at the greedy old woman.
"Rand were gonna stop you!" Scooby added, also glaring at Ma.
Ma then turned around and charged at the plane. "So, it's a dog fight you want, huh? Okay." She sent another TORPEDO at the two dogs.
Courage gasped his heart hammering, before having the plane come to a sudden halt.
"Rot again!" Scooby yelled.
Another idea struck Courage, "I have an idea!"
Courage then turned the plane around to avoid getting hit by the torpedo. He maneuvered the plane into going after Ma, luckily, the torpedo was a homing one and gave chase after the plane. After a few seconds, the plane was right at the tail of her submarine.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?" Ma demanded.
"This!/Rhis!" Scooby and Courage answered in unison, as Courage pulled the plane away.
And to their surprise, the torpedo immediately sped up and destroyed Ma's submarine.
But the dogs' triumph was short live when they both scream, as saw they that Ma was not done with them and sent a rocket towards the plane.
Scooby and Courage both sucked in deep breaths of air as Courage pulled the eject button, just in time to avoid getting seriously hurt. And they both used a nearby jellyfish as a makeshift parachute. Although they both did find it odd that it did not sting the two dogs as soon as they grabbed its tendrils.
Ma, was looking for the two dogs. For a moment, Scooby wondered how he was going to get the diving gear away from her, even though he didn't want Ma to drown, no matter what crimes she did, he was concerned with Courage at the moment.
However, that was soon solved when Courage crashed into her and knocked her wig off, she began to see if it was still there before realizing it wasn't. She screamed in realization, while Courage also scream. Ma diving after her wig and leaving her diving gear behind, but that suited Scooby as it allowed Courage to breath.
Courage at first refuse the diving gear, but his lungs started to scream for air and his greed for oxygen got the best of him. He took the oxygen tank and gasping for air.
Scooby started to struggle to breathe, but choked on water, white stars danced in front of his vision. He started to lose consciousness, his lungs were running out of oxygen. Rhis is it. He thought. RI'm going to drown. Rat least Rourage is safe...
The pink beagle looked at Scooby, who was gurgling and struggling to help his breath, his limbs stiffened with panic as he knew Scooby didn't have enough time. Scooby hold on! I'm going to bring you up to the surface!
Courage grabbed his best friend's paw, while he forced his limbs to go on working and bring his drowning best friend back to the surface.
Water choked Scooby and clogged up his throat, panic gripped his heart. He gulped for oxygen but only swallowed more salt water, it filled his lungs bloating them.
Courage's heart clenched when he saw the bubbles leave the Great Dane's mouth. Through the depths, Scooby could see Courage's eyes, they seemed to be pleading with him. He stared back. Rease hurry...
Courage pushed Scooby's head above the surface first before quickly following behind.
Right when Scooby's lungs were burning and started to convulse, he burst through the surface and gulped down air which tasted almost as sweet as Scooby Snacks.
Courage nearly sighed with relief when he heard his best friend take a lungful of air, coughing and spluttering from the new oxygen.
"Are you okay?" Courage asked.
Scooby coughed again, his chest burning, "R-R-Reah," he rasped, "We made it just in time, I thought I was gonna drown."
"Well you saved me from drowning back at the sewer, now we're even," Courage pointed out, with a smile, "Thanks for the diving gear, but please don't scare me again!"
"RI'll try," Scooby said breathlessly, with a chuckle.
Scooby and Courage got their original scuba gear on and went to meet up with Shaggy and Muriel.
"Scooby-Doo, Courage, are you okay?" Shaggy asked, going to meet them.
Scooby swam next to Shaggy and rubbed his back, "Re're okay Raggy."
Courage stood by Scooby's side, "I'm just glad it's all over."
"You and me both little pink dude," Shaggy said.
"I'm glad that you boys are okay," Muriel said.
After making it back to Coralville, the family saw that everything else was still in good condition despite a few structures being knocked down, thankfully, though, the same can be said for everyone else. After clearing up all the fallen debris, the leader told the trio that he had a surprise for them in the Great Hall of Coral History.
Swimming over there, the family saw that nearly all the coralites had gathered and were cheering them on.
"Courage, Shaggy, Scooby, your names will go down in Coralville history alongside the great Ezra Jedediah Coral!" the leader said, as he opened the curtains to reveal a framed picture of Shaggy, Scooby and Courage waving in front of the Jedediah statue.
"Like, I can't believe we're gonna be part of the corallite dudes history," Shaggy said.
"Re either Raggy," Scooby chimed in.
Courage smiled before turning to the Great Dane, "Scooby?"
"Res Rourage?" Scooby asked, as he turned to the pink beagle.
"Thanks for helping me out there. I wouldn't been able to stop Ma from destroying Coralville if it weren't for your help," Courage said softly.
Scooby smiled and swam over to enfold the pink beagle's paw in his, "Rell the people that I love are what motivate me to protect them from danger. Rincluding an underwater city."
Courage give out a little laughter, "That's some real courage you got there, if you know what I mean," he added, teasingly.
Scooby grinned from ear to ear, "Reah, thanks Rourage."
The two dogs, then embraced each other.
The next day, the Shaggy, Scooby and Courage are back at the farmhouse, sitting on the porch, Muriel is in the kitchen, and Eustace is in town.
"Little pink dude, like, why do you insist on chewing that anchor?" Shaggy asked Courage, who was sitting next to the teen and Scooby, while chewing on the anchor that he constantly keeps in his pocket.
"It's flavorful," Courage answered.
"Boys, to celebrate the wonderful thing, you three did to save the wee people, I made you both a pie," Muriel said, as she gave us each a pie.
"Like, groovy Aunt Muriel," Shaggy said, as he grabbed the pie from her.
"Roh boy," Scooby said happily.
"Yay!" Courage enthused.
However, before the trio could dig in, a Coralite came and ate three of the trio's pies in a second.
She give out a loud burp. "Excuse me," the Coralite said, while giggling.
Shaggy, Scooby and Courage paused a moment, before breaking out in laughter.
"Like, no one makes a good pie like Aunt Muriel," Shaggy said, shaking his head.
"Reah," Scooby chuckled, Scuba-Dooby-Doo!"
