Scooby: Previously on Mystery Incorporated
"Mr. E wants,He wants You to Help Him,To work with Him," Marcie warned.
"Now,Before You Decline,Listen,He Said,He'll try to Make Things Up to You,He Said,He Knows,He has messed Up with You,But,He wants to Try,He,Even Said,That,He would Answer Some of Your Questions about,About Your Heritage,Secrets,That,Your Grandmother never told You," Hot Dog Water explained.
Louis Huffed with Anger.
He knew,Exactly,What He was going to Say.
"Marce,Look,As Much as I want Answers about my Family and Heritage,I,I,I'm not going to Work with Mr. E,He is the Wrong Person to be With,And,He tried to kill Me,He sent Armies of Bounty Hunters to try to kill Me and My Grand Mother,And,That is not Okay,He is One of the Main People,Not to Trust,In This Whole War with the Planispheric Disc and the Haunted Treasure,I already have Friends,And,I'm on Their Side," Louis eludicated,Calmly,But,Still Angry on the Inside.
"Hot Dog Water,I am telling You,As Your Friend,Get Out,While You still can,Before,It's too Late,Before Mr. E refuses to let You go,I Know,If Anyone can do the Right Thing,It's You,So,Please,Stay Away from Mr. E," Louis warned as He grasped her Shoulders and looked into her Eyes.
"I,I can't,I have to tell Mr E,I have to Stay with Him,Or,He'll kill Me,He wants You on his Side,No Matter What," Hot Dog Water responded.
"I'm Sorry,Hot Dog Water,But,I can't Join," Louis informed as He Rolled Away.
"It's Okay, I didn't want to do This,He ordered Me to,He Said, You were his Plan B,He called, You a Tool," Hot Dog Water mentioned as She sat on the Bench,Not Moving.
Louis stopped,Rolling Away,When He heard,That,He called Him a Tool.
"What?" Louis asked as He turned is Wheelchair around,In Curiosity.
He looked at Hot Dog Water.
"He mentioned,That,He knew the Parker Family,That,All of your Family had Their Time,When They were a Tool,And,Now,It is Time for Yours," Hot Dog Water explained.
Louis sat Speechless.
He could not Believe,What,He had just Heard.
His Family had All been Tools of Someone.
Things had just gotten Interesting for Louis
His Eyes Widened in Shock and Fear.
As Louis was Rolling Inside.
He saw Someone,On the Sidewalk,Across From Him.
It was Hot Dog Water.
He Smiled as He saw Her.
But,It,Quickly,Faded,When He saw What was in Her Hand.
She had a Billboard in Her Hand,And,It Said,"Please Join Him."
Louis's Smile Faded as He saw It.
He shook his Head,No.
She was,Still,Here to Convince Him to go with Mr. E.
Louis waved Goodbye to Her,And,Rolled Inside to join the Others.
"I have,I have This Friend,And,He thinks,He might be in Love,What should He do?" Scooby asked.
"Nova,Hang On," Scooby yelled,Making Sure,She heard Him.
She Yipped,with Fear.
She,Thought,She wasn't going to Make It.
Scooby ran to Her Aid,As Fast as He could.
Nova fell,From the Sky,into Scooby's Arms.
Nova laid with a Look of Shock in her Face,In his Arms.
Scooby landed,On his Butt,When She fell into his Arms.
Louis rolled Up to Scooby's Side.
"Good Job,Scooby-Doo," Louis congratulated as He patted Scooby's Foot,Gently.
"You know,Your Advice,How You Always Manage to make Me,Feel Better,And,Have the Exact Perfect Advice I need,Like,With Nova,You gave Me Excellent Advice with Her,And,Now,Me and Nova are Happily Together," Scooby explained,Happily.
"Look,I Know your Mad,But,Before You say Anything,Please,Let me Finish,I,I feel,Like,Us Two can't go One Day without having a Problem,Or,Some Sort of Drama,Between Us,And,I want to Change That is,If You will let Me?" Scooby eludicated.
"Yeah,Yeah,I forgive You,And,I,I agree with your Statement,From now On,We'll make Sure,We won't have Another Problem to split us Apart," Louis answered with a Smile.
"I know,We're trying,To Not have a Problem,With Each Other,All the Time,But,I can't Shake This,I have to tell You" Louis warned.
He,then,turned his Attention down to his Note Pad.
Louis was Writing down Clues in his Note Pad.
He had drawn the Creatures Foot Prints.
He,even had drawn the Creature's Movements.
He had it drawn,Where all the Foot Prints were.
He looked at the Note Pad with Disappointment.
He shut the Note Pad.
He threw it to the Balcony Floor
"This isn't Working Out," Louis muttered to Himself.
"What ya Doing?" Scooby wondered,in Curiosity as he put the Note Pad,down on the Rail,Between Them and put his Arms around Louis.
Scooby had his Head,Resting over Louis's Shoulder.
"Ah,Well,I was Writing down Clues,To Gather Information to make Sense of Our Mystery,Just Something,I have been doing on Our Mysteries,Recently,I found,It could help me to find Clues,Easier,At least,It should," Louis eludicated.
As Louis talked,Scooby let go of Him.
Scooby stood on his Hind Legs and,Leaned over the Balcony Rail.
As Louis continued,Scooby looked,Inside the Note Pad.
He looked at the Clues.
He loved,How Neat Louis's Handwriting was.
"Wow,Sounds Cool,And,It even looks Cool," Scooby complemented.
"Thanks,But," Louis replied,With Disappointment on his Face.
"But," Scooby repeated,Waiting for Him to Finish,as He put the Note Pad down,and Turned to Louis.
"But,It doesn't seem to be Working Out,I haven't made any Connections to Our Recent Mysteries," Louis warned.
"Aw,It was so Obvious,And,I didn't See It,Why didn't I see it? I had All the Clues in my Note Pad,And,I still Sucked,I'm an Idiot,Maybe,This really isn't my Thing," Louis complained.
He was so Mad at Himself.
That,He didn't See the Connection.
He was going to Hold It,Against Himself.
"No,I won't,Cause,I'm an Idiot,I should have seen the Connection,But,I didn't,I Flopped,I am the Worst Member of Mystery Incorporated," Louis lashed out,Angrily.
Louis Sighed,Again,Quietly as He tore Another Page Out of his Note Pad.
Scooby heard the Sounds of the Papers,Tearing.
Scooby opened his Eyes,Gently.
Scooby saw Him,Tearing Out Pages Out of his Note Pad.
"Uh,Well,I'm,Um,Just Tearing Out,All the Pictures of The Failed Mysteries,That,I Failed to See the Connection Of," Louis warned as He Blurted It All Out at Once,As Fast as He could.
"Why?" Scooby questioned,in Confusion.
"Well,Those Mysteries are Over,I don't really need to Keep Them," Louis pointed out,Trying to Lie.
However,Louis was Looking,Back and Forth at the Exhibit.
For A Reason,Though.
He was Writing Down,Everything,He had Seen,So Far,Into his Note Pad.
"Okay,Monster seems to be,Giant Art Exhibit,Made,Completely,Out of Junk,In a Large Junk Pile,The Monster,Somehow,Turns People into Gold Statues,When,It eats Them,And,Yet,Appears to be a Regular Art Project,Interesting,Now,What's the Connection?" Louis muttered to Himself,As He Wrote and Drew the Creature,Down,In his Note Pad,With,Notes on the Side.
"Hmm,A Giant Robot,Made from Junk,Comes to Life,And,Tries to kill an Artist,By,Turning Parts of his Staff to Gold," Louis whispered to Himself as He Wrote,All This Down.
And,Tried to find a Connection.
"Like,I'm Bummed,Because,There's all This Free Chow,And,My Best Chowing Buddy's more Interested in Some Female,Than,Doing a Smack Down on the Cheese Buffet," Shaggy explained as He stayed,Looking Upset.
"No,Not Really,I am,Perfectly Happy,That,Scooby has Somebody,I think,He deserves It," Louis stated.
"Well,I am Not," Shaggy pointed out.
Louis and Velma looked at Each Other.
They Shook Their Heads at One Another.
They knew,Shaggy was a Little too Obsessed with Scooby.
"That's not very Nice," Louis notified.
"Like,You're any Better,Making Me lose My Best Friend," Shaggy murmured.
Louis turned to Shaggy,Hearing It.
Why was Shaggy being All Mad about That?
Louis asked Himself.
Shaggy turned to the Direction of the Scream.
He saw,It was Louis.
He Huffed.
"Ha,Like,Serves Him Right,For Ruining Me and Scooby's Friendship," Shaggy murmured as He Smiled,Seeing Louis,On the Floor,In Pain.
Shaggy's Smile,Quickly Faded,When He saw Scooby,Standing over Him,And,Them,Face to Face.
"Great,So,Now,Scooby pays,More Attention to Him,Than Me,Well Played,Brat," Shaggy complained as He saw Scooby,Standing over Louis.
"And,Where have You Two Been?" Shaggy questioned,In Anger.
"Surviving the Attack," Louis stated,Firmly.
"I've been with Louis,He was Hurt," Scooby pointed Out.
"I'm,Like,Sure He was,Louis,Probably,Forced You to Come Over There," Shaggy mumbled,Angrily.
"Like,What is your Plan Here Exactly? Cause,It seems Pretty Lame," Shaggy pointed out as He crossed his Arms.
"For Your Information,It isn't Lame,Now,That we have Both Victims,Present,And,Accounted For,We can Gather the Clues,That,We know,So Far,And,Look for a Connection,This should Help Us,Figure Out More,Of,What We're doing with," Louis retorted,Angrily.
"Yeah,Shaggy,It isn't Lame,So,Shh," Scooby added as He Commanded Shaggy to Shush.
Shaggy Frowned,In Irritation.
Shaggy Smiled as Scooby softed his Head.
He was Glad,To,Actually get Attention.
Louis Chuckled as He saw the Way,Scooby was Comforting Shaggy.
Shaggy's Smile Faded.
The Minute,Shaggy heard Louis's Chuckle.
What was He Chuckling about?
Shaggy asked Himself.
Suspiciously,Wondering,What Louis was Chuckling About.
"Thanks Scooby," Shaggy thanked.
"You're Welcome,Shaggy," Scooby replied.
"And,What were You Chuckling About?" Shaggy questioned,Angrily,At Louis.
"What? Am I not Allowed to Chuckle?" Louis wondered,Suspiciously.
"No,No,You're Not Allowed to Chuckle,Cause,You could be Chuckling about Something Mean,Or,You could,Like,Be Mocking Me,Secretly," Shaggy stated.
"Dude,What the Heck,It's Nothing,Like That,I was,Just Laughing,Cause of the Way Scooby was Comforting You," Louis informed,Firmly.
He did not Know,What was Up with His Friend,Shaggy.
Why was He,All of a Sudden,Acting like This?
Maybe,He could Ask Him about It.
He was Sure,Shaggy would tell Him.
They were Friends,After All.
Shaggy Smiled,Confidently.
He thought,Scooby was going to be Mad at Louis.
And,Then,He could,Go Back to Hanging with Him.
Just Him,And,Him Alone.
This was going to be the Best Part,He thought.
However,Shaggy was about to be,Sorely,Disappointed.
"Like,What?" Shaggy answered,Surprised to Hear,That,Scooby was,Not Mad at Him.
Shaggy mimicked Them as He heard Their Talk.
He Despised It.
And,He was,Still,Pretty Mad about Louis helping Scooby with the Nova Thing.
There was One Thing,He knew,For Sure.
That,This wasn't Over.
His Hate for Louis was,Just Beginning.
Louis Gasped,in Shock as He dropped the Cheese onto the Ground.
"It,It spoke,It Whispered Something to Me," Louis pointed out with Fear on his Face.
The Brightness got Brighter.
It was a Very Bright Golden Light.
"Alright,On Three,Pull It apart," Louis commanded.
"Okay," Scooby agreed.
It revealed a Glowing Gold Puzzle Piece in the Middle of the Cheese.
Velma walked up to the Two Boys.
She grabbed the Piece in the Middle.
It was Another Piece of the Planispheric Disc.
"Huh" Fred responded,in Shock.
Velma and Daphne Gasped in Surprise.
Shaggy saw It.
"Like,Zoinks,Another Piece of the Planispheric Disc," Shaggy announced.
"Whoa," Louis whispered.
"Ruh Roh," Scooby replied, in Fear.
The Gang and Nova stared at the Planispheric Disc with Interest.
They were One Step Closer to finding the Haunted Treasure.
Brad and Judy had,Recently come Home,From Work.
They had come Home,With a Couple of Maps.
Of the Town of Crystal Cove.
Brad and Judy,Now,Sat on the Couch.
Leaning over It.
As the Happy Couple leaned,While,On the Couch,as They looked at the Maps.
That,They had Stolen from Crystal Cove.
"But,There's,No Way,I'm going to take It,Even,Though,You stole my Boyfriend,I'd never let Anyone hurt You,Scooby-Doo," Velma eludicated.
"Velma," Scooby called.
Velma stopped,What She was doing.
She turned to Him.
"What is It? Scooby," Velma wondered.
"I just wanted to Ask You a Question," Scooby warned.
"Oh,Okay,Shoot," Velma ordered as she turned Back to her Tablet and Continued Working.
"Velma,What would You do,If you Thought,Well,You might be In Love?" Scooby mentioned.
Velma stopped her Work for a Second.
That was a Very Sensitive Subject,For Her.
She sighed,Angrily.
"What would I do? Well,That's Easy,Try to Snap Out of It,And,Dump the Slacker,before,He had a Chance to Break My Heart,And,Crush ,What,Few Dreams,I had Left," Velma explained,Not taking Her Eyes off her Tablet.
She was Drawing Daisy's Description of the Monster.
"Okay," Scooby responded,Weirded Out.
She,Clearly,didn't like, Talking about, Being in Love.
"Anything Else?" Velma asked.
"Uh,Nope," Scooby replied.
He turned around.
He started to walk Out of the Room.
Velma stopped Drawing on her Tablet.
She turned to Scooby.
She looked at Him,As He walked away.
She looked at Him,a Quick Up and Down.
She chuckled,Slightly.
She watched as He left the Room.
She didn't stop looking,until He left.
She,Then,turned Back to Her Tablet and,Continued Drawing.
"I asked,You All Here,To Discuss a Matter of Great Importance," Professor Pericles stated.
"It would Appear,the Kinder,the New Mystery Incorporated have obtained the Third, And,Now, the Fourth Piece of the Planispheric Disc," Pericles explained,Ignoring Cassidy's Comment.
"No," Judy responded,In Shock and Disappointment.
"Yes,This cannot Continue,Otherwise, Louis and Scooby,Along with Their Other Foolish Friends will Beat Us, And,As Such, I have a Little Proposition for All of You," Pericles eludicated.
The Present.
At the Docks.
It was Dark.
And,It was Foggy
Two Figures were,Running,Through the Docks,In the Fog.
The Two stopped,At the Boat House.
It was Vincent Van Ghoul and a Middle-Aged Woman.
They had Stopped,At the Boat House,To Talk.
"Deena,Promise Me,That,Whatever Happens,You won't Go,Into the Fog," Vincent requested as the Woman had Her Hands,Resting on his Chest as He talked.
"You Mean,That Fog,All Around Us?" Deena asked as She pointed to the Fog,That was,Surrounding Them.
"Yes,Deena,Because,It's,It's Full Of Ghouls," Vincent announced Out Loud,Dramatically,as Dramatic Music began to Play.
Deena Screamed,Once He Finished Talking.
As She saw Something,He didn't.
More Like,Somethings.
She saw Shadows Approaching,From Behind Him as He talked.
Vincent Van Ghoul turned Around,In Alarm.
He turned,And,Saw the Shadows,Coming towards Him.
Vincent looked at the Shadows,With Concern as the Screen began to Zoom Out.
Revealing It to be.
Only a Movie.
A Large Crowd was Gathered Around.
And,Were Sitting Down,Watching the Movie.
In the Crystal Cove Cemetery.
Mayor Nettles had set It Up,Calling It the Crystal Cove Horror Movie Night.
The Gang had Joined the Night,Too.
They were,Just Split Up,Across the Cemetery.
Shaggy and Scooby wanted to be There,Specifically.
They would never Miss a Vincent Van Ghoul Movie,Ever.
Specifically,On a Horror Movie Night.
Those Two were,Like,The Kings of Watching Horror Movies.
"Zoinks,Fog Ghouls,Like,Those are the Worst," Shaggy shouted as He covered his Eyes,In Fear,Opening his Fingers,Slightly,So,He could Still See.
As Shaggy talked,Nova had Her Face,In the Popcorn,Completely Ignoring Him.
She was Eating,Half the Bucket.
After All,She was Pretty Starving.
Scooby had Her,In His Lap,For Protection,as She Hate.
He didn't Want,Anything Bad Happening to Her,Not on his Watch
"Yeah,Nova cover Your Eyes," Scooby commanded as He put his Paws,Over Nova's Eyes,Agreeing with Shaggy's Statement.
Nova turned to Him,And,Smiled.
As She licked his Chin,As a Thanks.
Scooby Smiled,And,Sighed,Contently.
He loved Her Wet Kisses.
They were,Just the Best.
Nova turned Back to the Movie,Quite Interested in It,Wanting to See It Through to the End.
Scooby was,About to turn Back to the Movie.
Until.
He noticed,Louis,Sitting by His Side.
Looking Through a Batch of Papers,Paying No Attention to the Movie.
He hadn't,Even,Touched the Popcorn.
Scooby knew,He had to Step In.
"Hey,You're not Watching the Movie," Scooby mentioned as He rested his Chin,On Louis's Shoulder,And,watched Louis,as He looked through,The Bunch of Papers,That,He had,In His Hands.
"I am Watching It," Louis lied,Not,Even,Glancing at Scooby,Staying Completely Focused,On his Papers.
He was,Definitely,Lying.
He hadn't paid Attention,To the Movie,At All.
He was,Too Busy,To.
At Least,So,He Thought.
"Yeah,While,You're doing Something,That's,Totally,Against the Rules of Watching a Movie," Scooby informed,as He raised,An Eyebrow,Hoping,That,Would be Enough,To get Him to Watch.
"You watch the Movie,The Way,You watch a Movie,And,I'll watch the Movie,The Way,I watch a Movie," Louis replied as He continued,To look at the Papers,Hoping to Find,What,He was looking For.
Scooby looked at Louis,With a Look of Sadness.
He wanted his Friend,To,Actually watch the Movie with Him.
Not,Just,Focus on Something Else,And,Completely Ignore It.
Scooby looked at Him,With Interest.
He saw Louis,Being Pretty Enthralled in the Papers,Just Looking,Through Them,Anxiously.
He hadn't,Even,Noticed,That,He was looking at Him,Yet.
Scooby Smiled,Confidently.
Realizing,That,He had a Chance to do Something.
Scooby lifted his Paw,Slowly.
And,Quickly,Snatched the Papers,From Louis's Hands.
"Hey,Give Those Back," Louis responded,Angrily,as He tried to Reach for the Papers.
Scooby pulled It,Away From Him.
He put It,Into his Other Paw.
And,Held It Away,From Louis.
"Uh,Uh," Scooby replied,Shaking His Head,No,as Louis,Still,Tried to reach his Paw.
"Come On,Be Reasonable,I need Those," Louis commanded,Really Wanting the Papers,Back.
Those Papers were,Quite Important to Him,At the Moment.
After All,They were Helping Him,In his Investigation.
"I am being Reasonable," Scooby retorted.
"Come On,Scoob,Give Those Back," Louis begged as He put his Hands,On Scooby's Shoulders,And,Shook Him,Slightly.
"Ah,Agree to Watch the Movie,And,Then,I'll give Them,Back to You," Scooby offered as He saw Louis,Trying to Grab It,as He held It,Farther Away,From Louis.
"And,If Not?" Louis wondered,In Curiosity,as His Shoulders Sank.
"If Not,I keep Them,In My Possession,And,I never give Them,Back," Scooby answered as He Smiled,Confidently,Proud with What He was doing.
"What the? What Kind of a Deal is That?" Louis responded,Not Seeing,The Good Part of the Deal.
"We got a Deal?" Scooby asked as He kept the Papers,Away From Him.
"Alright,You Win," Louis admitted.
"See? Was That,So Difficult?" Scooby commented,Teasing Louis,Slightly.
"Maybe,But,I expect Them Back,After the Movie," Louis notified,Answering his Comment,Angrily,as He was Holding Scooby to his Part of the Deal.
"You got It,Lou," Scooby agreed as He,Slightly,Chuckled.
Louis moved,In His Seat as He Scooted Over.
"What are you doing,Now?" Scooby questioned,In Suspicion,as He moved the Papers,More Away from Louis,Expecting Him,Trying to Trick Him.
"Getting Comfortable," Louis replied,Nicely,as He Scooted,And,Laid his Back on Scooby's Arm.
As He leaned,On Him,as He started to watch the Movie.
Scooby Smiled as He saw Louis lean,On Him,And,Turn to the Movie.
Scooby turned,Right Back to the Movie.
Now,That,His Friend was Watching It.
Vincent Van Ghoul stared at the Approaching Ghouls.
He Gasped at Them,In Alarm.
He,Quickly,Grabbed Deena,By the Arms,Gently,And,Took Off Running Away.
As the Ghouls Moaned,And,Walked After Them.
"This Way," Vincent Ordered,Pulling Deena,Towards the End of the Docks,Close to the Water.
The Two ran,To the End,Of the Docks.
The Two stopped,At the End of the Docks,As They heard the Ghouls Growling and Moaning,as They Approached Them.
Deena Gasped as She saw Them,Coming Closer.
She was,So Afraid.
They watched as the Ghouls began to Come,From All over the Docks,Climbing on the Boats,And,Everything.
Deena and Vincent heard Growling,Coming,From Behind Them.
The Two Gasped as They turned Around.
They saw Shadows,Start to Rise,In the Water.
The Two stared at the Ghouls,In Horror.
Vincent pushed Deena,Out of the Way,To Safety.
As He stared at the Approaching Ghouls.
One of the Ghouls walked Up to Him,And,Grabbed his Legs.
"Aaah,Deena,They've got Me," Vincent announced,as He stood Frozen,Not,Even,Trying to Fight It.
The Other Ghouls,In the Water,All walked Up to Him,And,Started,Grabbing Onto Them.
"No,Vincent," Deena shouted as She watched,Standing,Completely Still.
"Deena,Deena,They're Hands are,So Tingly," Vincent called Out,as They started to Cover Him.
He reached his Hand,Out to Her as He Screamed.
While,She did Nothing.
She,Just Watched.
The Ghouls pulled Vincent,Down into the Foggy Waters as He Screamed,The Whole Way.
"Noo-o-o-o-o," Deena Screamed Out as She watched Them,Take Her.
Once Vincent was,In the Fog.
He started to Change.
He Groaned and Moaned as He began to Transform.
He Grasped his Head,Dramatically,as He Moaned.
"What's? What's Happening to Me?" Vincent questioned as He continued to Scream.
"No,Vincent,No," Deena said,as She Continued to Watch.
Vincent did,One Final Screamed,as He turned,Completely,Into a Ghoul.
His Arms became Elongated,And,Spikes,Stuck Out of His Back.
And,His Hands and Feet,Grew Claws.
Vincent started to Moan as He started to Approach Deena.
"Come,Deena,Come into the Fog," Vincent ordered as He walked,Towards Her,Moving,From Side to Side.
"No,No Way," Deena disagreed,as She backed Up,In Fear.
"Seriously,It's,Actually,Kind of Nice,Like,A,A Day Spa," Vincent lied,Trying to get Her,To Go,In the Fog.
"No,No," Deena retorted,Still,Disagreeing.
As She Screamed,To the Top of Her Lungs.
The Audience looked,At the Movies,With Fright.
As the Girls,All clinged to their Boyfriends.
Shaggy,Scooby and Nova watched the Movie,With Their Eyes,Now Wide.
Scared at the Movie,As Well.
Louis watched It,So,Casually.
He had Always Thought,Vincent's Movies Acting was,So Lame.
The Rest of the Gang were Watching the Movie,Too.
They were,Quite Interested,In the Movie,For Being Mystery Buffs.
Daphne watched It as She drank,From her Drink.
And,Of Course,She was,Right Next to Fred.
The,Only Mystery Incorporated Member,That,Wasn't There.
Was Velma.
She had,Skipped Out,On the Whole Movie Night.
She wasn't,Really Interested.
Mayor Nettles sat,Next to Fred,Too.
She watched the Movie,With a Snack Platter.
Fred hugged his Legs,as He watched the Movie.
"Wow,I have to Say,Mayor Nettles,This Horror Movie Night is a Huge Success," Fred complemented.
"Thank You,Frederick,I thought,You Guys would love It," Mayor Nettles replied as She Smiled,Having the Huge Snack Platter,In her Hands.
That was When
The Gang heard a Large Roar.
From,Very Close By.
But,Not as Close,as the Movie.
Fred,Daphne,Louis,And Mayor Nettles turned to the Direction of the Roars.
It was Coming,From Behind the Movie Screen.
Scooby and Shaggy clinged to Each Other,As They heard It.
"Like,I don't think,That,Was the Movie," Shaggy stated.
"Yeah,Me Neither," Scooby agreed as He let go of Shaggy.
And,Clinged to Louis,as He Chattered his Teeth and Shook.
"I think,It's Coming,From behind the Screen," Louis added,as He looked at the Screen,With Interest as Scooby clinged to Him
"You've got to be Kidding," Shaggy murmured,In Irritation as He saw,Scooby cling to Him,Instead.
All of a Sudden.
They heard the Roar,Again.
This Time,It was Closer.
Deena,From the Movie,Screamed,Once Again.
As,Suddenly.
The Projection Screen ripped,In Half.
And,A Real Ghoul stuck his Head,Out of the Screen.
It Snarled as It looked,At the Large Audience.
Two Women,In Front.
Turn to See It.
As They Gasped,In Shock.
"Yipe," Shaggy yelled,In Surprise,as He tried to,Jump into Scooby's Arms.
However.
"Yikes,A Real Ghoul," Scooby responded as He saw It,And,Jumped into Louis's Arms,In Terror.
"Uh,It's Worse,It's a Graveyard Ghoul," Louis commented,Informing Scooby.
"Not Helping," Scooby pointed Out,Angrily.
"Sorry," Louis apologized,Nicely.
Since Scooby wasn't There.
Shaggy fell,Right,Onto the Ground.
Louis heard,the Large Thud.
And,Turned to Shaggy,In Concern.
"Shag,You Okay?" Louis asked,In Concern.
"Just Fine," Shaggy answered,In Anger,as He Frowned.
Nova saw It,In the Screen
And,She,Immediately,Started Barking at It.
She Barked at It,Over and Over.
The Ghoul stared at All of Them.
With Hate.
As It Roared,Out Loud.
Making Saliva droop,Down,From,It's Mouth.
The Minute,People heard It's Roar.
People Screamed.
And,Started Running Away,Instantly,Panicking.
People ran,Off Their Seats,And,Away,From the Graveyard.
Other People looked at It,And,Continued Screaming.
And,Then,Started Running.
People were,In,So Much of Hurry.
That,They were,Running Over Stuff.
Two People ran,Into Each Other.
Making Them Fall.
As They fell,Right,Onto the Projector.
Ruining the Movie.
People pushed,Each Other,Out of the Way.
Just,Trying to get to Safety.
They All came,Running Out of the Graveyard.
Nova continued,Barking at It,Fiercely.
Showing It,That,She wasn't Afraid.
"Nova," Scooby called Out,as He saw Her,On the Groun,Barking at It.
Scooby Growled as He jumped,Out of Louis's Arms.
And,Went Straight to Nova.
Scooby picked her Up,With his Teeth.
And,Took Off Running.
Leaving,Both Shaggy and Louis.
"Scooby," Shaggy called,Disappointedly.
"Well,He's Gone," Louis commented as He watched Him,Leave Them Both.
The Graveyard Ghoul Roared,Once Again,Very Loudly.
Shaggy Screamed Out,as He heard It.
Shaggy was,So Frightened.
That,He,Completely,Went All Out.
He,Quickly,Picked Up Louis,Put Him,In his Wheelchair.
And,Pushed Him Out,As He ran,With Him.
Saving Them Both.
The Ghoul watched,As They All ran Out.
As He Roared,Out,Once Agai
The Next Day.
Back at the Graveyard.
8:00 A.M.
Mystery Incorporated was,Back There.
Ready to Solve Their Next Mystery.
The Gang had,Already,Split Up,To look for Clues.
Fred and Daphne were,Together.
As Usual.
Shaggy and Velma were,Also,Paired Up.
And,Scooby and Louis were Paired Up,As Always.
Fred and Daphne were,In Front of the Screen.
Where the Graveyard Ghoul had burst Through.
Daphne was,Behind Fred,Looking at the Projector.
While Fred was looking,At the Screen.
"That Graveyard Ghoul had to leave,Some Kind of Clues Behind," Fred stated as He looked at the Torn Projector Screen.
Daphne sat,On Her Knees,Staring at the Projector.
Moving It Around,Hoping to find Something.
But,She,Really,Wasn't Finding Anything.
"Nothing Here,Fred," Daphne announced,Calmly,But,Disappointedly,She,Really,Wanted to Find Something,For Fred.
"Mm,Nothing Here," Shaggy murmured,With his Mouth Full,From,Behind a Gravestone.
"Then,Why's Your Mouth Full?" Velma questioned,From a Distance,Kind of,Angry,That,Shaggy wasn't Staying,On Task.
The Two were,Supposed,To had Split Up.
And,Look for Clues.
But,He was,Too Busy Eating.
To do Anything.
"Well,Like,Except for a Ton of Abandoned Food Stuff's,Left Behind,From,Last Night's Panic," Shaggy added,Talking with a Sandwich,In his Hand.
As Shaggy lifted the Sandwich to his Mouth.
And,Took Another Bite of the Sandwich.
Meanwhile.
Scooby and Louis were,In the Back of the Graveyard,Looking for Clues.
"Yummy,Abandoned Food," Scooby commented,From a Large Distance,Hearing the Word Food,From Shaggy's Mouth.
And,Already getting Excited.
Scooby was,About to Run,All the Way Back,Over to the Food.
But,Louis stopped Him.
Louis grabbed Scooby's Collar.
And,Held him,Away from It.
"Focus,Scoob,Mystery First,Remember," Louis reminded as He held
"Food,Later,I Know," Scooby finished,Finishing Louis's Sentence,In a Disappointing Tone.
Louis shook his Head,Slightly as He reached,Into his Bag.
And,Pulled a Large Sandwich,Out of the Bag.
"This was,For Later,But," Louis mentioned as He pulled It Out,Giving the Sandwich to Scooby.
He saw,That,His Best Friend was Upset,And,He wanted to Cheer Him Up.
Scooby turned to Louis as He saw,Him,Pull Out the Large Sandwich.
Scooby started to drool.
As He looked at,How Big,It was.
"Oh,Louis,I love You,I Really Do," Scooby shouted,Out,Happily,as He looked at the Large Sandwich,And,Licked his Lips,Ready to Eat It.
"It's All Yours," Louis said,as He slid It over to Scooby.
"Scooby-Dooby-Doo," Scooby announced as He looked at the Sandwich,And,Tapped his Foot,In Excitement.
Super Ready to Eat It,Now.
Scooby ran to the Sandwich.
And,Started Eating It.
Eating the Sandwich,In Large Bites.
"You Go Ahead,And,Eat That,SD,I'll take a Look Around,And,Look for Some Clues," Louis offered as He began to roll Away.
"Lou,You are the Best," Scooby complemented,as He ate the Sandwich,Eating It,As Much as He could.
Adoring the Big Sandwich,He had.
"I know," Louis replied as He rolled Away,Smiling at Scooby's Complement.
"Oh,I,Just,Love Sandwiches," Scooby mumbled to Himself as He started to Scarf Down,The Sandwich.
Louis looked,Around,The Back of the Graveyard.
But,He wasn't,Finding Anything.
Louis sighed,In Disappointment.
Disappointed,That,He wasn't finding Anything.
Louis wrote Down,The Clues,That,He had,So Far.
"Hmm,Ghoul,That,Actually,Stays,In a Graveyard,But,Doesn't like Visitors,In It,Graveyard seems to be,Practically Abandoned," Louis whispered to Himself,as He wrote,All That,Down,In his Notebook.
"And,One Boy,Who Persists,That,He is Terrible,At Finding the Connection," Scooby added,From Behind,Louis.
"Yep,And,One Boy,Who Persists,That,He is,Wait,Huh?" Louis repeated,Before Realizing,What,He was Writing,And,Stopped.
Louis turned,Around,To See,Who said That.
"It's,Just Me,Louis," Scooby informed.
"Scoob,I thought,You were Eating,That Sandwich,I made You," Louis answered,Seeing Scooby,There,And,Being Confused.
"I already ate It,It's Gone," Scooby notified.
Louis Chuckled as He shook his Head.
"I forgot,How Fast You Eat," Louis stated,as He Smiled.
Suddenly.
Louis Smelled Something.
Louis sniffed the Air.
"You Smell That?" Louis asked as He sniffed the Air.
"No,What do you Smell?" Scooby wondered.
"I don't Know,But,I've,Definitely,Smelled It Before," Louis replied to Scooby's Question,Trying to Figure Out,The Source of the Scent.
"Guys,Did You find Anything?" Fred called,From,Over,at the Movie Theater.
"Not Really," Louis responded,Shouting Back at Fred.
"Well,Come On,We better,Head Back," Scooby suggested.
"Yeah,You're Right,Come On," Louis agreed as He motioned for Scooby to follow Him.
As the Two headed Back,To,Join Up with the Others.
As For Velma.
She was Searching,On Her Own,Now.
Since,Shaggy wasn't Really,Very Good Help.
He was,Too Distracted,By the Food.
She was,By Herself,Looking Around.
Velma looked at a Large Torn Cloth,From the Movie,Last Night,With Interest.
She Wondered,What was Behind It.
She grasped the Cloth,Tightly.
And,Pulled It Off,And,Threw It to the Ground.
Revealing a Creepy Figure to be There.
Velma Gasped,In Surprise,To See Him,There.
The Figure Growled at Her,As He got in Her Face.
"Jinkies,It's the Graveyard Ghoul," Velma yelled Out as She saw Him,And,Stepped Back,Slightly,In Alarm.
The Rest of the Gang,Shaggy,Fred,Daphne,Louis,And,Scooby,Joined Up with Her.
But,With No Fear.
They,Just,Smiled.
Most,At Least.
Fred laughed at Her.
"Don't be Silly,Velma," Fred mocked.
Velma Frowned,When She heard That,She wasn't being Silly.
"And,How,Exactly,Am I being Silly?" Velma questioned as She put her Hands,On Her Hips,Firmly.
"That's Evallo,He works Here,As a Grave Digger," Fred warned.
"He is?" Scooby and Louis repeated,In Surprise.
They didn't,Even,Know,That,A Grave Digger Existed.
"I don't like Grave Diggers,They're Creepy," Scooby said,as He hid,Behind Louis,In Fear.
Afraid of the Creepy Guy.
"Don't Worry,Scoob,He's Friendly,He's helped Me,Bury,A Few Things,More than Once,Over the Years," Fred added,as He Smiled,Happily,Remembering,All the Good Times,He had with Evallo.
"Hi,Evallo," Fred announced,Waving to Evallo,With a Smile,On his Face.
"Be Gone,Scarfed One," Evallo demanded,Getting in Fred's Face.
"He doesn't,Seem,Very Nice," Louis informed as He rolled,To,Behind,Scooby,And,Hid Behind Him.
Hiding Behind his Strong Dog.
"Don't Worry,Louis,I'll protect You," Scooby reassured as He lifted his Arms,And,Showed Off his Muscles.
"I don't have a Doubt,With your Strong Muscles," Louis complemented.
"Yep,That's Me," Scooby bragged,Playfully.
Shaggy rolled his Eyes,as He heard Them.
Fred Chuckled at Evallo's Previous Demand.
"Good to see You,Too,Evallo," Fred responded,Not,Even,Scathed,Still,as Happy as Ever.
As Fred began to Walk Away,Evallo Snarled,Under his Breath.
Fred and the Gang started to Walk Away.
Leaving Evallo to his Strangeness.
Well,Most of Them.
Velma,Still,Wasn't Giving Up,On Her Lead.
Velma grabbed Fred's Arm,And,Stopped Him.
Fred stopped as He felt Her Tug.
He stopped and,Turned to Her.
"Guys,It's Him,It's So Obvious,Evallo is the Graveyard Ghoul," Velma notified,Out Loud,Informing the Whole Gang.
Louis,Scooby,Daphne and Shaggy,All Stopped as She talked.
They Stopped and Listened to Her.
As The Gang talked.
Evallo started Muttering to Himself,Loudly.
The Gang turned,From Velma to Him.
Hearing his Muttering,And,Groans.
Everyone looked at Him,With Curiosity.
"Evil,And,What Not," Evallo mentioned,To Himself,as He put his Hands,Together,And,Continued to Mutter.
"Nah," Scooby disagreed, as He turned Away,From Evallo,And,Stuck Up his Nose.
"Sorry," Daphne announced as She looked at Him,Dully,And,Crossed her Arms
"Don't see It," Shaggy added as He looked at Evallo,With Dis-Interest.
"I don't Know,Velm," Louis replied,Looking at Him,Not Really Knowing,If It was Him,Or Not.
Louis was,Kind Of,Confused.
Scooby grabbed Louis's Face,And,Turned It Away,From Evallo,To his Face.
"Do I look Evil?" Scooby asked,In Curiosity,as He put his Arm,Around Louis.
"Nah,SD,You could never look Evil,You'll Always have the Cute,Adorable Dog Face,You have," Louis answered as He Smiled,Happily,Squeezing,Scooby's Cheeks,Playfully.
Velma could not believe,What She was Hearing.
"What? Guys,I know It,He,Literally,Looks like Him," Velma continued,Trying to get Them to see,What She saw.
"Velma,I'm Surprised at You,That's Villain Profiling,We don't do That," Fred pointed Out,Angrily.
"But," Velma tried to Say.
"No,Velma,We Investigate,Every Angle of Every Mystery," Fred finished.
"But,Fred," Velma tried to Point Out.
Before She was,Interrupted,Again.
"Like,Why,That Picturesque Little House,I've never seen Before,Is Over There," Fred added as He looked at the Strangely Bright House,With Interest.
"Like,Should We check It Out?" Shaggy wondered,In Curiosity.
"Yep,Come On,Gang,Let's Check It Out," Fred ordered,Pointing to the House,For Them to Investigate.
Most of the Gang nodded,In Agreement, as They walked over to the House,To Investigate.
Velma watched Them,All Walk Away.
She stood There,Shocked.
They were,Totally,Ignoring Her Accusation.
Velma turned Back,To Evallo,Making Sure,That,He was,Still There.
Suddenly.
Evallo got,In Her Face.
And,Started Growling at Her,as He looked at Her,With Anger,And,Disgust.
He Snarled and Growled at Her,Just Hating,Her,Very Look.
"Guys,Guys,You See That?" Velma called Out,Calling the Gang,To Pay Attention to Her,And,Look at What,He was doing.
The Gang continued to Ignore Her.
As They continued Walking Over,To the House.
"Guys,He's Growling at Me,Actually Growling," Velma announced,Still,Trying to get Their Attention.
But,They,Still,Ignored Her.
And,Kept Walking.
Velma Sighed,Frustratedly,as She hung her Head Down,In Disappointment.
As She followed,After Them,To Join Them.
Ignoring his Growls and Snarls.
The Gang got to the Door Step.
And,Stood on the Porch as They waited,For Fred to Knock.
Fred knocked,On the Door.
Hoping,The People were Home.
So,They could ask Them,A Few Questions.
A Woman walked Up to the Door.
And,Opened It,Answering It.
She was dressed,In a Lederhosen Styled Dress,And,Stood,Quite,Confidently.
"Ah,Guests,Come In,Come In," The Woman requested,Nicely,Requesting for Them,To Come In.
She opened the Door,Wide.
So,They could Enter.
Scooby and Louis looked at Each Other,With Concern.
For,What They were,Getting Into.
The Gang,All Walked In.
Louis rolled in,Hesitantly.
Not very Trusting,Of This Woman.
He had Come,Not to Trust Easy,Not Anymore.
The Gang walked,Into the House.
And,Stood in the Living Room.
As They looked at the Inside of the House.
The Gang,All,Lined Up,Side by Side.
"I am Moder Bjorkland,And,This is My Home," Ms. Moder introduced as She gently,Shut the Door,And,Introduced Herself,And,Her Home,Speaking in a Nice German Accent.
She stood,Beside Them.
So,She could,Show Them Around.
"Pleased to Meet You," Scooby replied as He held,Out his Paw,For Her to Shake,Smiling Confidently,as He did.
She Smiled as She saw Him.
"Oh,What a Nice,Polite,Talking Dog,My Girls will,Just Love You," Moder stated as She shook his Hand,Gently,And,Softed His Head,Quickly.
Not Freaking Out.
Like,It was Completely Normal.
To have a Talking Dog.
"Girls," Moder called,Calling for Her Daughters,To Come Over,To Her.
So,She could,Introduce Them.
The Girls,Gently,And,Slowly,Walked Over to the Gang and Their Mother.
The Girls walked,Up to Them,In a Nice Straight Line,Not Saying a Word.
As They walked In,Moder started to talk,About Them.
"These are my Three Beautiful Daughters,That,Don't Speak," Moder announced,Introducing Her Daughters as They walked,Into the Room.
The Minute,They walked,Into the Room.
Fred and Shaggy caught Sight of Them.
And,Looked at Them,Excitedly.
With Their Mouths,Hanging Open.
Velma looked at the Boys.
And,Saw Them,Looking at Them,With Interest.
As She rolled Her Eyes,In Irritation.
Shaggy wasn't,That Way,With Her.
But,Yet,He was,Super Crazy,For These Ladies.
Daphne,Just,Watched,With Her Arms Crossed.
She saw,How,Fred was looking,At Them.
She was Furious.
"Uh,What are Their Names?" Fred asked,In Curiosity,
"This is Inga,Ola,And, Heidi,That are Their Names," Moder replied,Answering Fred's Question.
Fred and Shaggy Chuckled,Sheepishly,as They heard Their Names.
Louis looked at Scooby.
"What's Up with Those Two?" Louis wondered.
"I don't Know," Scooby answered,as He shrugged his Shoulders,Not Knowing,What was going On.
Louis shook his Head,Playfully,as He looked at the Two Frozen Boys,Staring at the Three Ladies.
Louis leaned,On Scooby's Side,as He Smiled.
"Ah,The Dog's got a Boyfriend,How Sweet,I Always Loved,Young Love," Moder mentioned,Seeing,Louis leaning on Scooby,And,Assuming Something Else.
"Wait What?" Scooby and Louis responded,At the Same Time,In Surprise.
"Uh,No,No," Scooby replied,Awkwardly,as He blushed,In Embarrassment,And,Smiled.
"No,No,You got It All Wrong,You See," Louis informed,In an Awkwardly Tone,as He Blushed,And,Scratched the Back of His Neck,In Nervousness.
"We-We're Not," Scooby stuttered.
"You See,We're,We're,Not," Louis tried to Say,As He Stuttered,From the Feeling of being Uncomfortable.
"We're,Just," Scooby said,Smiling,Uncomfortably,as He looked Around,In Embarrassment.
"Friends," Louis shouted,Finishing Scooby's Sentence,Awkwardly.
"Yeah,Yeah,We're,Just,Friends," Scooby agreed as He nodded his Head,Anxiously,Trying to Act Normal.
"Yep,Nothing Else," Louis commented as He chuckled,Sheepishly,as He continued to Scratch the Back of his Neck.
"That,That's All," Both Louis and Scooby added,In Unison.
Louis and Scooby turned to Each Other,Noticing,That,They had Both Said,The Same Thing,At the Same Time.
As the Duo Smiled at One Another,Awkwardly.
Louis and Scooby turned Away,From Each Other,Both Blushing,Slightly,From being Uncomfortable.
"Oh,So Sorry,We,So Seldom,Get Any Visitors,So,We can be a Little Awkward," Ms. Moder apologized as She tried to be Extra Polite,Trying not to Scare Off,Their New Guests.
"Oh,No Worries," Louis reassured as He Smiled,Slightly,Trying to Forget,What,Previously had been Said.
"Yeah,No Need to Worry," Scooby added as He Smiled,Big,Also,Trying to Reassure Them.
"Well,We better,Be Going Now," Velma announced as She turned Around,And,Headed towards the Door.
"Oh,Please,Come,Stay," Moder pleaded.
"Make Yourselves Comfortable,And,Allow my Daughters,To Wait,Upon Your Hand and Foot," Ms. Moder explained,Trying to Convince the Gang,To Stay,With Them.
She didn't want Them,To Leave,So Soon.
"Uh,Excuse Me,One Second,Moder Bjorkland,Girls," Fred requested,Nicely,Trying to get the Gang,To talk about This as He smiled at the Girls.
"Like,Yeah,It'll,Just be a Sec,Girls," Shaggy warned as He looked at the Daughters,With Interest,as He smiled at Them.
The Gang,All Huddled Together.
To Talk about This,Together.
As a Team.
Fred put his Arms,Around Velma and Shaggy,To tighten the Huddle.
Daphne Squeezed in,To be a Part of the Conversation.
She needed to be a Part of This Conversation.
She was Part of the Gang,After All.
All of the Gang were,Tightly,Huddled Together.
All,Except Louis.
Fred had,Forgotten,About Him.
Louis was,Trying to Squeeze,Into the Huddle as They began to Talk.
"Uh,Could I get in,Too?" Louis asked,Trying to Squeeze Into the Huddle.
After All,He was Part of the Gang,Too.
He should have,Been Included.
Scooby heard Louis,Trying to get Their Attention,To be a Part of the Conversation.
"Psst,Over Here,Louis," Scooby whispered,Motioning for Louis,To Squeeze In,Beside Him.
Louis Smiled as He looked at Scooby.
He,Always,Found a Way to,Include Him.
That was,One of the Things,That,Louis liked,About Him.
He never,Felt,Left Out,When Scooby was Around.
Louis rolled,Over Scooby,Who was,Motioning for Him,To Come Over.
And,Sat by his Best Friend's Side,Now,Included,In the Huddle.
Louis put his Hand,On Scooby's Head,As He softed his Head.
Scooby Smiled as his Tail,Began to Wag,Enjoying the Attention,That,He was Receiving,From his Friend.
"Thanks,SD," Louis thanked,as He Whispered,That,Into Scooby's Ear,as He softed his Head.
"Don't Mention It,Lou," Scooby answered,Quietly,as He leaned his Head,Onto Louis's Arm,And,Nuzzled his Arm,as Louis softed Him.
Shaggy turned to Louis and Scooby.
And,Saw Them Both,Happy,Enjoying Each Other's Company as Louis softed Scooby's Head.
Shaggy lowered his Head,In Sadness,as He looked at It.
He missed,That.
A Lot.
Now,That,The Whole Gang was There.
Fred started,Talking Over,The Situation.
"We,Definitely,need to Investigate,This House,Some More," Fred whispered,Wanting to Stay at the House,Longer,Cause,He wanted to,Stay with the Girls.
"I Know,Right? Like,Who could believe,That,There is a Family,Of All Super Hot Daughters," Shaggy stated,Agreeing with Fred's Order,Also,Wanting to Stay with the Hot Girls.
Both Boys were,Just,Thinking,About Their Hormones.
And,Not the Mystery.
"Uh,Guys,I See,That,This House is Interesting,To You Two,But,I don't think,That,This has Anything to do with the Mystery," Louis informed,Trying to Stay on Task.
"Like,What would You Know?" Shaggy questioned,Lashing Out at Louis,Angrily.
Louis lowered his Head,Hurt by the Insult.
But,More Hurt,That,He had lost,His Friend.
One of his Best Friends,No Less.
Scooby put his Paw,On Louis's Head.
And,Messed Up his Hair,Playfully.
Louis looked Up to his Best Friend as He saw Him,Messing Up his Hair,Playfully.
"It's Alright," Scooby mumbled as He softed Louis's Head,And,Smiled at Him,Trying to make Him feel Better.
Louis Smiled Back at Scooby,Starting to feel Better,Already.
Louis hugged Scooby's Face,In Thanks.
Scooby Smiled,Bigger,as Louis hugged his Face.
Happy to Know,That,His Plan Worked,And,His Best Friend was Happy.
"Um,That's,Exactly,My Family,Shaggy,My Family's,That Way,We're All Hot," Daphne pointed Out,Firmly,From Shaggy's Previous Statement.
Daphne knew,Exactly,What the Boys were thinking About.
"Fred,I don't See,Why," Daphne tried to Say,Trying to get Them to Leave the Place,And,Never look Back.
"Great,Then,It's Agreed,We,Investigate,The Bjorkland House," Fred announced,Interrupting Daphne,And,Making the Decision,For Everyone,Selfishly.
Shaggy and Fred,Both Agreed with the Decision.
And,Ended the Huddle.
Not letting,The Others Say Anything,Or,Have a Say,In the Matter
Shaggy and Fred approached the Three Daughters.
"Oh,Man,I am,Like,Suddenly,So,Into Investigating,Hoo Hoo,Shaggy commented as He Chuckled,And,Him and Fred,Approached the Girls,Happily.
And,Looked at Them,Smiling Wide.
Louis and Scooby watched the Boys,Being So Obsessed with Three Random Girls.
Both Boys rolled Their Eyes as They watched the Other Two fond Over Them.
"You gotta be Kidding Me," Louis murmured as He watched Them.
"I think,We've,Officially,Lost Them,For Awhile," Scooby said,as He lifted an Eyebrow,as They Both,Watched Fred and Shaggy,Being Crazy about the Ladies.
"You wanna Stay?" Louis wondered,In Curiosity,Wondering If He wanted to Stay,Too.
Cause,If Scooby wanted to Stay,Louis would,Definitely,Be Onboard to Stay,With Him
"Sure," Scooby agreed,Nicely,Also Wanting to Stay.
"Well,Then,I am,Staying with Ya,Buddy," Louis notified,Wanting to Stay with his Buddy.
He didn't,Really,Want his Friend to feel Lonely.
I mean,Scooby would be,Quite,Lonely,If Louis wasn't There.
Cause,The Other Two would be,So Focused,On the Girls,That,They wouldn't pay Attention to Him.
"Well,Then,I Guess,It's,Just the Two of Us,Who will have Common Sense," Scooby added as He put his Arm,Around Louis.
"Yep,It looks like It," Louis replied,In Agreement.
Louis and Scooby,Walked and Rolled Away,as Scooby kept his Arm,Around Louis,as They went to,Join Shaggy and Fred,With the Girls.
Velma and Daphne watched as They saw All the Boys,Go to the Girls.
Daphne and Velma Frowned as They looked at Them.
They knew,Louis and Scooby had Sense,And,Not being,All About the Girls.
But,That,Wasn't Their Problem,They wanted Shaggy and Fred to have Sense.
Velma,Still,Missed,The Times,When Her and Shaggy were Together.
She Remembered Them,Like,They were Yesterday.
But,She knew,She couldn't get Back,Into That Relationship.
She was,Just,Causing More Heartbreak,For Herself.
"I can See,That,This is going Nowhere," Velma stated as She watched the Boys,Ridiculed By, What She was Seeing.
"Yeah,I see It,Too," Daphne agreed as She watched It,As Well.
"Well,I'm going to take Off,And,Do Some Real Detective Work,You Coming?" Velma announced as She walked to the Door,And,Was,About to Open It,Before Asking Daphne,If She wanted to Come.
"No,I better,Stay Here,And,Help Louis and Scooby,Keep an Eye,On the Boys,These Bjorklands seem a Little,Too Nice," Daphne warned,Not Wanting to Come,Because,She didn't trust Fred,That was,The Real Reason,That,She was Staying,as She muttered,How Unusually Nice They were,As She Crossed Her Arms,In Resentment.
Velma Sighed,In Disappointment,as She Opened the Door.
And,Slammed It Shut,Behind Her.
Pretty Ticked,That,She was the Only One,Seeing The Connection.
While,She was Leaving.
Moder and Her Family were,Getting Ready to Show,Their New Guests,Their House.
"Follow Us,We'll show You Around," Moder requested,Nicely,as She Smiled,And,Started Walking to the First Part of the Tour.
Her Daughters motioned,For the Boys to follow Their Mother.
Fred and Shaggy's Mouths hanged Open,as They watched the Girls,Motion for Them.
As Both Boys followed the Girls and Their Mom,To Start the Tour.
Scooby motioned,For Louis to Follow Him.
Louis nodded,In Agreement.
As Louis and Scooby,Walked and Rolled,To Join the Others.
With Daphne,Right Behind Them.
"And,This is the Kitchen," Moder Bjorkland announced as Her and Her Daughters walked,Into the Kitchen.
With Fred,Shaggy,Daphne,Louis and Scooby,Behind Them.
The Gang walked,Into the Kitchen.
And,Sat Down,At the Table.
Most,Wanting to Stay,Forever.
"My Favorite Part of Any Tour," Scooby commented as Scooby Chuckled as His Own Comment.
Louis Smiled as He Scratched Scooby,Behind the Ears.
Scooby's Tail Wagged,as Louis started Scratching,Behind his Ears.
Moder Bjorkland Chuckled,Slightly,Along,With Scooby.
"I like,Men,With a Healthy Appetite,Dogs,Too," Moder stated,Complementing Him as She softed Scooby's Head,Gently.
"Thank You," Scooby thanked as Moder Petted his Head.
Scooby's Tail Wagged,Even,Harder,Once,Moder started Petting Him.
He was,Enjoying,All the Attention,He was Getting.
Between Louis and Ms. Moder,Scooby was getting,All the Attention,He,Ever Wanted.
"You Know,Back in the Old Country,All the Men and Dogs could Eat,Just,Pounds and Pounds of Meatballs,At Every Meal," Moder mentioned as She petted Scooby,As She Talked.
As She was Talking,Inga,Ola and Heidi,Picked Up a Large Plate of Meatballs,And,Set It Down,On the Table,as Their Mother Spoke.
There was,Like,A Mountain of Meatballs,On the Plate.
Fred,Shaggy and Scooby Smiled at the Meatballs,As They Stared at Them.
They were,Quite,Starving.
All Three Boys,Each,Grabbed One.
And,Shoved It,Into Their Mouth,Very Quickly,
"Mm," Fred,Shaggy,and Scooby murmured as They ate the Meatball,That was,In Their Mouths.
All Three of Them,Liked It.
And,Wanted More.
So,They Each,Grabbed Another One,And,Shoved it,Into Their Mouths.
Before They knew It,They,Just,Kept Eating and Eating.
And,They didn't want to Stop.
"Oh,Good,Ja?" Moder guessed as She watched Them,Eat the Meatballs,Quickly,With Smiles,On Their Faces.
"Yeah," Scooby agreed as He shoved,Another,Into his Mouth.
"Good,Good,Enjoy Yourselves,We have Plenty More," Ms. Bjorkland replied,Happy,That,They were,Enjoying the Food,Encouraging Them,To Eat More.
"This is,Like,Heaven," Shaggy whispered to Himself,as He continued to put Meatballs,Into his Mouth.
"Oh,This is like the Old Days,Our Homeland was,So Wonderful," Ms. Bjorkland added as She put Her Hands,Together,Remembering the The Best Memories,From the Good Old Days.
Louis listened to Moder,as She talked.
Probably,The Only One,Actually Listening.
As She talked.
Louis took Out,His Note Pad,And,Pencil.
And,Set It,On the Table.
He was Ready to Start,Asking Questions,Hopefully,He could find the Connection,This Time.
That's What,He was,Hoping For.
"Wow,Don't Mind Me Asking,But,Why did You come to Crystal Cove?" Louis wondered,In Curiosity,as He Opened the Note Pad,Ready to Start,Writing Down Clues.
"Well,We,Only,Came to Crystal Cove,Six Months Ago,Because,We thought,We could get Rich,By Buying This Cemetery," Ms. Bjorkland answered,as She started Explaining,How They came There.
"Oh,Well,Did It Work?" Louis asked,Curiously,as He wrote Down,What She Said,And,Tried to look for Clues.
"Not Exactly,You See,The Cemetery's,Not Really,Paying Off,And,It's Such a Good Location,Too,It's,Right Next to the Gas Company," Ms. Bjorkland explained,as She Walked to the Window,And,Looked Outside.
"Really? Interesting," Louis responded,Hearing the Part,About It,Being,Right Next to the Gas Company,And,Writing It Down,In the Clues Section,That was,Definitely,A Subject of Interest.
As Moder continued to Talk,Scooby turned to Louis,Seeing his Best Friend,Too,Into the Mystery.
And,Not Having Enough Food.
Louis hadn't,Even,Had One Meatball.
But,That was,Gonna Change.
For Sure.
Scooby picked Up a Meatball,In his Paws.
And,Reached his Paw,Out to Louis,So,He could take It.
Louis turned to Scooby's Paw,Reaching Out to Him,For Him to take the Meatball.
Louis shook his Head,Informing Scooby,That,He didn't Want It,That,He was,Too Busy.
Scooby frowned as He saw Louis,Refuse It,And,Turn his Attention,Back to Ms. Moder.
He knew,His Friend,Needed to Eat.
He needed to Focus Less,On the Mystery,And,More,On Eating Something.
Suddenly.
Scooby got an Idea.
He Gasped,Quietly.
As He Smiled,Wickedly.
"But,Alas,It's,Just,Not Working," Moder Bjorkland eludicated as She continued to look Outside,With a Sad Face.
As She Spoke.
Scooby kept,Putting the Meatball,In Louis's Face.
Trying to force Him,To eat It.
Louis kept his Face Away,From His Paw,Trying to avoid Eating It.
"Oh,I'm Sorry," Louis apologized to Moder,Gently,Kind Of,Feeling Bad for Them.
Scooby continued to,Try to Force Him to Eat It.
Louis moved Away,Avoiding It,Each Time,He tried.
"Look,There's Something on My Nose," Scooby announced,Pointing to his Dog Nose.
Louis stopped,Avoiding the Meatballs.
And,Turned to Scooby.
He looked Down,At his Nose.
"Huh,I don't see Any..." Louis was,About to Say,as He looked at Scooby's Nose,Up Closely,Seeing Nothing Wrong with It.
Before Scooby shoved the Meatball,Into his Mouth.
Forcing Him to eat It.
He had lied,About the Whole Nose Thing.
It was,All,Just to get Him,To Eat It.
Louis Frowned,In Irritation,At What his Friend,Had,Just Pulled.
He did Eat the Meatball,But,He was,Still,Mad,That,He tricked Him.
"But,Enough Gloomy Stories," Moder stated,Trying to change the Subject,As She turned,Back to the Gang.
"Who's Hungry for More Meatballs? Ja," She wondered,Asking Them,If They Wanted More.
"I love Any Story,That Ends,In More Meatballs," Scooby commented as He Smiled,Taking his Attention off of Louis,And,Onto Wanting More Meatballs.
"You love Any Story,That,Has Something to do with Food," Louis pointed Out, Smiling,Confidently, as He Squeezed Scooby's Nose,The Minute,That,Moder stopped Paying Attention to Them.
Scooby Gasped as He put his Paws,On his Nose.
"Ouch," Scooby responded,Hurt from the Squeeze,That,Louis did,as He grasped his Nose,From the Pain.
"Now,There's Something Wrong with Your Nose," Louis stated as He Smiled,Happily,Happy,That,He got him Back,For His Little Trick.
"Yeah,But,Now,It hurts," Scooby complained,Grasping his Nose,Tightly.
Louis rolled his Eyes,Playfully.
He thought,Scooby was,Being a Little Too Dramatic.
"Alright,Where does It Hurt?" Louis asked,In Curiosity,as He Smiled,Slightly.
"My Whole Nose," Scooby pointed Out,Angrily,as He put his Paws Down,And,Pointed to his Whole Nose.
Louis kissed Scooby's Nose,To Make It feel Better.
"Better?" Louis wondered,as He lifted his Eyebrow,Wondering If It felt Better.
"A Little," Scooby admitted as He looked to the Floor,Not Looking at Louis.
"Well,Good," Louis responded,Happily,as He softed Scooby's Head,Gently.
Scooby Smiled,Pridefully.
"Well,Maybe,It'll feel Better,Completely,If You kiss my Nose,Again," Scooby commented,Trying to get Him to kiss his Nose,Once Again.
"Uh,No," Louis disagreed,Firmly,Smiling,Slightly.
"Aw,But,I love Your Kisses," Scooby complemented.
Louis Chuckled,Quietly,as Scooby's Complement,as He turned Back to Moder Bjorkland and her Daughters.
While Louis and Scooby were Talking,Fred and Shaggy had Already Finished,Off the Meatballs,That were,On the Previous Plate.
So Moder Bjorkland requested,For Her Daughters,To give Them,Another Plate Full.
The Three Girls nodded,Silently,as They grabbed Another Plate Full of Meatballs,In Their Hands,And,Set It Down,On the Table.
Shaggy watched the Girls,Carry the Large Plate,Onto the Table.
He looked at Them,With Interest,as He watched Them,Set It Down.
As He looked at Them,The Sun Shined,On Them,Brightly.
"They're,Like,All Angels,Glowing,Silent,Perfect Angels,Who serve Meatballs," Shaggy announced,Contentedly,Clearly,Falling Head Over Heels,For the Ladies.
Forgetting,All,About his Hate for Louis,And,His Jealousy.
For Once,He,Actually,Felt Extremely Happy.
"Oh,We,Also,Have Chocolate," Ms. Bjorkland added as She walked,Over to the Boys,With a Handful of Chocolate.
Shaggy Gasped,In Surprise.
As He Chuckled,Sheepishly,In Excitement.
He had,Never,Been More Excited.
Shaggy stared at the Chocolate.
And,Got More and More Excited,With Each Glance.
"Joy Overload," Shaggy shouted,Looking at the Chocolate,Barely,Containing In,His Excitement.
Shaggy was,So Excited.
That,He fainted,From All the Excitement.
Shaggy's Face fell,Right,Into the Meatballs Plate.
Louis and Scooby watched as He fainted,And,His Face fell,Into the Meatballs.
"Oh,Is He Okay?" Ms. Bjorkland questioned,In Concern,Seeing Him,Unconscious,In the Meatballs.
"He's Fine," Louis and Scooby replied,In Unison,So Casually.
They were,Pretty Use to Him doing,That.
It wasn't,Anything New.
Daphne zoomed,Over to the Kitchen.
When,Hearing the Slightest Sound,Of the Word Chocolate.
"Chocolate,What Kind?" Daphne asked,In Curiosity,as She went,Over to Ms. Bjorkland's Side.
Asking About the Chocolate,Definitely,Wanting Some.
Daphne realized,What She was Saying.
And,Tried to Ask a Different Question.
"Uh,I Mean,What's the Coco Ratio? 60%,70%, How Pure is It?" Daphne interrogated,Asking Questions,Before She,Just,Started,Taking Guesses,Of Her Own,Wanting Answers,Starting to lose It,With,Just,Really Wanting the Chocolate.
Scooby,Louis and Fred turned to Daphne,In Concern.
Wondering,Why,She was Asking,All These Chocolate-Related Questions.
"Never Mind,I don't want Any," Daphne rejected,Rejecting the Chocolate,For Her Own Safety,Still,Slightly,Wanting It,But,Refusing It.
Daphne walked Away,From Moder and the Gang.
Trying to Stay,As Far Away,From the Chocolate,As Possible.
Scooby and Louis turned to Each Other,In Confusion.
Both Wondering,What was Wrong with Daphne.
As They Both,Shrugged Their Shoulders,In Unison.
Not Knowing What.
Meanwhile.
While the Gang was,Kicking Back.
And,Doing,Practically Nothing.
Velma was doing,Some Real Detective Work.
Actually Working,Instead of,Focusing on Love Interests.
She was,One of the Only Serious Ones,Around There,Anymore.
Fred and Shaggy were,Both Fools.
And,Everyone Else,Who had Sense.
Either,Not Believing Her Theory,Or,Decided to Stay,To keep an Eye,On the Boys.
Velma walked,By Herself,On the Sidewalk.
Storming,Towards City Hall.
To get to Their Office.
She was,So Angry,That,She wasn't,Even,Paying Any Attention to the Cars,Passing By.
She,Just,Walked,On the Sidewalk,Ranting to Herself.
She Sighed,In Disappointment,As She Walked.
"Ugh,Here I am,Again,The Only One,Really Working," Velma complained to Herself,As She walked by a Tree,About a Mile,From City Hall,Ranting to Herself.
Suddenly.
Someone Answered Her.
"You,Always were,The Most Determined of your Little Group," The Voice added,From,Behind a Tree,Walking Out,Into the Light.
Revealing It to be,Someone,Quite Familiar.
"Mr. E," Velma answered,Turning Around,Hearing his Voice.
As She turned Around,In Alarm.
Seeing Him,Right There,Next to the Tree.
In the Flesh.
"Were You,Just,Waiting There?" Velma wondered,In Concern,Wondering,How,He,Just,Popped Up,Out of Nowhere.
"Of Course,Waiting for You," Mr. E Said,Answering Her,Quickly,Trying to make,This Request,Quick.
"Alright,What do You Want?" Velma responded,Angrily,as She crossed Her Arms,And,Waited for Him to Answer
"The Stakes are,Higher than Ever,Velma,I need You,Back on my Team," Mr. E explained,Trying to get his Slave,Back on his Team,Offering for Her to Come Back.
He needed Her.
Or,At Least,So,He thought.
"Keep Dreaming,Mr. E,I don't Know,Why,I,Ever,Trusted You Before,But,That's not a Mistake,I'll make Twice," Velma lashed Out,Angrily,Getting in his Face,Informing Him,That,She was,Never,Coming Back.
She made Sure,That,It was Pretty Clear,That,She wasn't Coming Back.
Velma turned Around,And,Started to Walk Away.
Ignoring his Presence,And,Just,Leaving Him There.
"I Always,Have my Backup,He'd be a Lot More Useful," Mr. E announced,Retorting Back,To her Previous Response.
Velma stopped,For a Minute.
When She heard,That.
Who was his Backup.
And,What did He Mean,That,He'd be a Lot More Useful,Velma asked Herself?
Velma shook It Off,For the Moment.
And,Continued to Walk Away.
Leaving Him,Alone.
Or,At Least,That's What,He thought.
"Ahhh,The Sweet Taste of Rejection," A Voice commented,From,Above Mr. E.
Someone,He didn't,Even,Know was There.
Mr. E turned Around,In Alarm.
Hearing the Sudden Voice,Scaring Him.
He turned to the Direction of the Voice.
He looked Up,In the Tree.
And,There,He was.
"Professor Pericles," Mr. E called as He saw Him,In the Tree.
He looked at Pericles,With Disgust
"Yes,Yes,It's Me,The Others,They do not Trust Me,Any More,Ricky," Pericles mentioned,Trying to Explain his Problem,To Mr. E.
"You Blame Them?" Mr. E retorted,Angrily.
After All,He knew,Exactly,Why,They didn't trust Him.
And,He was,With Them,On That.
He knew,What Pericles had Done.
"I tried to Open,My Little Heart to Them,Wanted Them to join Forces,Again,But,They All,Turned Me Down,Cassidy is Bitter,Angry,Brad and Judy are Enigmas,Both of Them,That,Leaves Only You,Ricky,My Sweet Ricky," Pericles eludicated,Trying to get Him to Understand,And,Calling Him a Name,He knew,He would Remember.
"Don't Ever,Call Me That,You lost That,The Night,You betrayed Me," Mr E demanded,Furiously,Hating,To Hear That Name,Again.
As He turned Around.
And,Started to Walk Away from Him.
Leaving Pericles.
Pericles watched as Mr. E walked Away.
Back at the Ladies House.
Shaggy,Daphne,Scooby,Louis and Fred were,Still,In the Kitchen.
The Three Boys were,Still,Eating Meatballs.
They had Four More Plates of Meatballs,On the Table,In Front of Them.
Daphne and Louis sat Next to the Boys,Waiting for the Time,For Them to Leave.
Shaggy Chuckled as He picked Up,Yet,Another Meatball,From the Plate.
"Like,These are the Best Meatballs,I have Ever Eaten," Shaggy complemented as He held the Meatballs,In his Hand.
As He stared at It.
The Three Daughters Giggled,Quietly,at Shaggy's Complement.
They loved being Complemented.
Specifically,By Boys.
"And,I am Something of a Meatball Aficionado," Shaggy added,As He put the Meatball,Into His Mouth.
And,Chewed It,Enjoying The Food and Ladies,A Little Too Much.
"Me Too,These are Delicious," Scooby agreed,Sitting beside Shaggy,as He Juggled Three Meatballs,In his Paws,Trying to Show Off.
Louis watched Scooby as He juggled the Meatballs.
He Chuckled,Slightly,as He looked at It.
"Showing Off,Are You?" Louis commented,Lifting an Eyebrow,Guessing the Exact Thing,That,Scooby was doing.
"Maybe,Why? Are You Impressed?" Scooby wondered,Wondering if His Friend was Impressed,By his Trick.
"Maybe,I am," Louis retorted,Smiling,Confidently,as He sat Back,In his Chair.
Scooby threw the Three Meatballs,That,Were in his Paws,Into the Air.
Scooby opened his Mouth,Wide,Ready for Them.
As He kept his Mouth Open,To the Sky.
Soon,The Meatballs came,Falling Down,From the Air,Into Scooby's Mouth.
All Three landed,Straight,Into Scooby's Mouth.
And,Went,Right Down,His Throat.
He swallowed Them,as They went Down,His Throat,Into his Stomach
Scooby burped,Loudly,After They had All gone Down.
"Could I get Another One,I am Starving?" Louis requested,Asking Scoob,If He could pass Him,One.
"Sure," Scooby replied,Agreeing to Louis's Request.
Scooby took the Meatball,That,He had,Just,Put into his Mouth.
And,Took Out of his Mouth.
It being,Only Chewed a Little.
Scooby spit It Out,Into his Paw.
As He stretched his Paw,Over to Louis.
As He handed the Slightly Chewed Meatball,To Louis.
"Oh,Thanks,SD," Louis thanked as He took It,And,Put It in his Mouth.
"Your Welcome," Scooby answered,Happily,So Casual,About Them Sharing Spit.
After All,This wasn't,The First Time,That,They had done It.
"Mm,Good as Always,Scooby-Doo," Louis complemented,Nicely.
Scooby Smiled,Proudly,Back at Louis,For his Complement.
Louis turned to Daphne.
Who was staring at Him,With a Disgusted Look,On Her Face.
"What?" Louis asked,In Confusion,Wondering Why She was Staring at Him.
Scooby saw Daphne,Staring at Louis.
He looked at the Two,Back and Forth.
Not Knowing,What was going On.
Louis and Scooby looked at Each Other,In Confusion.
Both Boys shrugged Their Shoulders,Not Knowing,Why She was staring at Him.
As The Gang were Eating,Moder and her Daughters,Were Watching Them Eat.
They Smiled as They watched Them Eat.
"Oh,We are Out of Lingonberries,Excuse Me,While I get More,From the Basement," Moder announced as She walked Over to the Basement,And,Walked,Into It.
Closing the Door,Behind Her.
Leaving the Two Hormonal Boys,Alone,With the Three Daughters.
Daphne sat,With her Arms Crossed,Keeping a Special Eye,On Fred.
"Wow,You Bjorklands,Sure Know,How to make a Guy feel Welcome," Fred said,Complementing the Girls.
The Girls Smiled as They held Their Skirts,And,Curtsied,Back at Fred as a Response.
"Like,Yes,They do," Shaggy muttered,In Agreement.
Also,Going Crazy for the Girls.
Suddenly.
The Lights to the House,Went Out.
Turning Out,All the Lights.
Even,The Ones,In the Kitchen.
"Huh," Fred responded,Noticing,How It,Suddenly,Got Dark.
"Like,What Happened to the Lights?" Shaggy wondered,In Concern,Starting to feel Scared.
"Uh Oh," Louis and Scooby said,In Unison,Not Trusting,What was going On.
That was When.
The Gang and the Girls heard a Loud Roaring Sound.
Surrounding the Whole Kitchen.
They could hear It,Throughout the Whole Kitchen
The Gang looked Around,Trying to find,Where,It was coming From.
Shaggy looked Around,In Alarm,as He began to Shake.
"I,Really,Hope,That's not the Only Thing,It could be," Shaggy stated as He and Scooby started Shaking,From,Just,Hearing the Sounds of the Roars.
"You and Me Both," Scooby added as He grasped,Louis's Neck,Tightly,as He began to Shake,Too.
As the Gang looked Around,Looking for Any Sign of the Graveyard Ghoul.
Trying to not,Be Ambushed by the Monster.
However,That didn't Work.
Cause.
Right Then.
The Graveyard Ghoul kicked Down,The Door,So Suddenly.
Scaring the Whole Gang.
As He broke,Into the House.
The Graveyard Ghoul stood There,In the Doorway.
Growling and Drooling as He glared at the Gang.
The Gang sat at the Table,Frozen,With Fear and Surprise.
"It is,It's the Graveyard Ghoul," Scooby shouted,In Fear,as He sat,On the Floor next to Louis,Very Closely,Afraid,By What He was Seeing,Quite Tempted,To go back to Grasping His Buddy,Tightly.
The Graveyard Ghoul looked at Them,With Disgust.
He Roared,Loudly,at Them,As a Response.
As He ran,Towards Them,Roaring and Drooling,In All.
Getting Ready to Attack Them.
The Graveyard Ghoul came at Them,Roaring and Snarling.
He charged at Them,Going straight for Shaggy,Scooby and Louis.
The Three Boys saw Him,Coming at Them.
And,They,Immediately,Panicked.
Louis Screamed as He saw Him Coming.
He,Quickly,Reacted,as He rolled Out of the Way,Of the Graveyard Ghoul.
As He joined Fred and Daphne,Behind the Table.
Out of the Ghoul's Path.
Shaggy and Scooby Screamed as They saw Him.
He was going,Straight for Them.
"Yipes," Shaggy shouted as He jumped,Onto the Table,Freaking Out.
Trying to get Away,From the Ghoul's Path.
He walked,Over the Meatballs,as He jumped Off the Table,Onto the Other Side of It.
Joining Fred,Daphne and Louis,To Safety.
Scooby jumped,Onto the Table,Off of Shaggy.
"Come On,Scooby," Louis called Out,Motioning for Him,To come Over to Him,So,That,He would be Safe,Too.
Scooby turned Back,To see the Graveyard Ghoul,Close,Behind Him.
Scooby Screamed Out,In Alarm as He jumped on the Table.
Trying to get Away from the Ghoul.
"Hurry,SD,Hurry," Louis shouted,Motioning for Him to Hurry.
He walked,Over the Meatballs,As Well,Crushing Them,Under his Paws.
The Graveyard Ghoul ran,Over to the Table,Attempting to grab Scooby.
Scooby Screamed as He jumped Off the Table,And,Landed,Right Onto Louis.
"I got Ya,SD," Louis reassured as He held Scooby,In his Arms.
Scooby sat in Louis's Lap,Grasping his Friend,Tightly,as He shook with Fear
The Graveyard Ghoul Roared Out,In Anger as He missed Scooby.
The Three Girls Gasped,In Fear as They watched Him Roar at the Gang.
The Graveyard Ghoul turned his Attention,From the Gang to the Girls.
The Girls Screamed,In Unison,as They saw Him,Looking at Them.
He Roared at Them,Too.
The Girls Screamed as They All Three ran to the Window,With Fear.
They clinged to Each Other as They saw Him,Coming towards Them.
The Graveyard Ghoul picked Up a Chair,And,Threw It at the Girls.
The Girls stood Frozen,Clinging to Each Other,as It came at Them.
The Chair broke,Right,In Front of Them.
As They continued to Scream,From the Fear,They Felt.
The Graveyard Ghoul came at Them,With the Remaining Part of the Chair.
He Smiled,Wickedly,at Them as He approached Them.
He Roared,In Their Faces,Getting Ready to Attack.
As Drips of Drool,Went All Over the Girls.
All of Sudden.
A Meatball hit the Graveyard Ghoul,In the Head.
He stopped,Roaring,And,Turned to the Direction of Where the Meatball came From.
Suddenly.
Three More Meatballs hit the Graveyard Ghoul's Face.
He Grunted and Growled,as Each One hit Him.
He turned to,Who was throwing Them.
It was Louis,Fred and Shaggy.
They had Meatballs,In Their Hands.
And,They were throwing Them,At Him.
Scooby sat,Behind Louis,Hiding Behind Him.
He watched as They threw Meatballs,At Him.
Louis was,About to throw Another One.
Until.
A Paw tapped Him,On the Shoulder.
He turned to Behind Him,Stopping Throwing,For a Second.
"Lou,I can Help,Too," Scooby mentioned,From Behind Louis.
"You Sure,You're Up to It? SD," Louis asked,In Concern.
Not Wanting to force his Best Friend,To do Anything,That,He didn't want to do.
"Yeah," Scooby agreed,With a Confident Smile.
Louis Smiled Back at Scooby.
"Then,Here," Louis replied as He handed Scooby,The Meatball,That was,In his Hands.
"Thanks," Scooby thanked,as He threw the Meatball,That was,In his Paws,At the Graveyard Ghoul.
"Your Welcome," Louis answered as He grabbed Another One,And,Threw It,At the Ghoul.
The Ghoul put his Arm,Over his Face.
To Protect his Face,From getting Hit.
But,Still,Fred,Shaggy,Louis and Scooby did not Stop.
They continued to Throw.
Throwing Everything,That,They had,At Him.
"Like,Take That,And,That," Shaggy announced as Threw Another,And,Another at the Ghoul.
"You leave Those Beautiful Immigrants,Alone," Fred demanded as He threw One,And,Had Another in his Hand.
As The Gang continued to throw Meatballs,At Him.
The Girls ran,To the Other Side of the Room,Screaming and All.
The Graveyard Ghoul growled as He saw the Girls,Run Away,From Him.
He Snarled as He jumped,Onto the Table.
Trying to Scare Them,To Stop throwing Meatballs.
But,They didn't.
They,Just,Kept Going.
Throwing One After Another,Into the Graveyard Ghoul's Face.
Scooby,Fred,Louis and Shaggy started,Throwing Multiple at a Time.
Hitting the Ghoul,EveryWhere.
Throwing Them,So Fast,That,The Ghoul couldn't keep Up.
Scooby and Louis,Each Grabbed Another,Along with Shaggy and Fred,as They Each threw One at His Face.
Hitting Him.
Scooby and Louis were,About to grab Another One.
But,The Two ended Up,Putting Their Hand and Paw,On Top,Of One Another.
Louis and Scooby turned to the Plate,Seeing Their Paw and Hand Touching.
"Uh Oh," Louis and Scooby said,In Unison.
"What?" Fred wondered as He turned to the Two Boys.
"Out of Ammo," Scooby informed as He looked at the Empty Plate,With,Just,Their Hand and Paw.
Louis and Scooby,Quickly,Took Their Hand and Paw Off the Plate.
"Not Quite,You Two," Daphne stated as She picked Up the Plate,In her Hands.
And,Threw It at the Graveyard Ghoul.
He Laughed,Expecting It to Miss.
But,Boy,Was He Wrong.
The Plate hit Him,Right,In the Middle of his Face.
As He Roared,In Anger and Pain,Almost falling Backwards,From the Hit.
He Quickly,Countered,Managing to stay,On his Feet.
He Snarled at Them,As He looked at Them,With Fury.
"Leave This Cemetery,Leave,And,Never Return," The Graveyard Ghoul demanded,In Anger,As He stood,On the Table,Ready to Attack,Again.
"Never gonna Happen,Dude," Louis retorted,as He grabbed the Front End of the Table.
And,Flipped It.
Flipping the Graveyard Ghoul,Off the Table,And,Through the Window,Breaking It,As the Graveyard Ghoul flew Out of It.
Fred,Daphne and Shaggy watched the Window,Frozen,With,What had Just Happened.
Louis and Scooby looked at Each Other,In Concern.
As the Duo Rolled and Ran,To the Window.
Looking to see,If They had Gotten Him.
The Boys looked Out,The Window.
As They saw the Graveyard Ghoul,Jumping,From Grave to Grave,Before Disappearing into the Night.
For Now.
"Yeah," Louis cheered.
"Go Louis," Scooby congratulated as Him and Louis,Did a High Paw.
Happy with What,He had,Just Did.
"Too Bad,He gotta Away,Though," Louis added,as They did the High Paw.
"For Now,Maybe," Scooby commented,Pridefully,as He crossed his Arms,Confidently.
Louis Chuckled,Quietly,as Scooby's Comment,And,His Proud Stance.
Suddenly.
The Lights came Back On,In the Kitchen.
And,Ms. Bjorkland came Back,With a Large Bowl of More Meatballs.
"Oops,Sorry,That took So Long,I hope,I did not miss Anything," Moder Said,Before She looked at Her Daughters,The Gang,Her Messy Kitchen,And,The Broken Window.
She looked at the Messy Kitchen,With Confusion.
"Exciting," Ms. Bjorkland finished as She stood There,With Confusion,On her Face,as She looked at the Room.
"Uh,Long Story," Louis and Scooby warned,In Unison,With Nervousness.
Trying to figure Out,How to tell Her,What Happened.
At the Same Time.
At City Hall.
Back Down in Mystery Incorporated's New Office.
Velma sat at the Group Computer,Closely,as She started Researching Anything She could find,On the Evallo Guy.
She was refusing to give Up,On This Lead.
Specifically,Because,She knew,That,She was Right.
She looked,Closely,at the Computer,as She searched for Any Evidence,That,He was the Monster.
"Jinkies,It's,Like,This Evallo Guy,Barely Exists," Velma muttered to Herself as She Typed and Looked for Everything She could,To find This Guy.
That was When.
The Computer Chimed,Out Loud,Getting Velma's Attention.
Velma Smiled,Confidently,as She heard the Chime.
She was,So Happy,That,She had Actually,Found Something,On the Guy.
"Bingo,His Real Name is Count Evallo Von Meanskrieg," Velma announced to Herself,Thinking,That,She was talking to the Gang.
As She heard No Answer.
Velma turned Around,Hearing,Just,A Bunch of Silence.
Before,Remembering,That,She was All Alone.
She Sighed,Frustratedly, as She turned Back to the Computer.
"Hmm,Looks like Count Evallo applied for a Work Permit,But,Was Denied,Because his Aptitude Test,Showed,That,He was Pure Evil," Velma read,Out Loud,Finding Everything,That,She was Reading,Quite Interesting.
"I've got to tell the Gang," Velma stated as She got Up,Off the Chair,And,Headed Back Out,To Share Her Findings with the Gang.
She was getting,More and More Happier.
Cause,She was,Finding More and More Proof,That,She was Right.
And,She was going to prove It.
Meanwhile.
Back at the House.
Louis,Scooby,Fred and Shaggy had Explained Everything to Ms. Bjorkland.
Her and her Daughters stood,Beside,Fred and Shaggy as They,Just,Finished telling It.
Shaggy and Fred sat Smiling,Excitedly,Staring at the Girls.
Both Happy to have Protected the Pretty Girls.
They had No Regrets.
"Oh,You were,So Brave,Saving My Daughters,From That Monster," Ms. Bjorkland complemented,as She walked,Back Over to the,Now,Clean Kitchen,To Grab Something.
"Oh,It's Nothing,It's,Kind Of,Our Job,That,No One,Ever,Pays Us For," Fred commented,Smiling,Proudly,Hoping to be Paid Back,Somehow.
The Girls Giggled at Fred's Little Comment.
Daphne sat,Far Away,From the Other Boys,Hearing It All.
As She rolled her Eyes,In Frustration,Starting to Really get Mad at Them.
"It's Not,Really,Our Job,But,We did It," Louis added,Firmly,as He sat Next to Scooby,With his Phone,In Hand.
He had Noticed,That,Velma had been Gone,For a Very Long Time.
And,He was very Worried,About Her.
So,He was texting Her.
He texted, "Are You Okay," To Her.
Velma Replied Back,Saying, "Yeah,I'm,On My Way Back,Now."
Louis let Out a Sigh of Relief,as He saw Her Reply.
He was,So Relieved,To,Know,That,She was Okay.
He had gotten,Pretty Worried.
And,At the Moment,He seemed to be the Only One.
He set his Phone,Down,Now,That,He knew,She was Safe.
He sat Up as He Put his Phone Away,To Relax,With the Gang,For a Little While Longer.
"You are Heroes," Ms. Bjorkland mentioned as She walked,Over to Them,With a Small Platter,In Her Hands.
"And,To Commemorate your Deeds,We made These Chocolate Statues,In your Honor," Ms. Moder Finished as She lowered the Platter,Down to Them,So,They could take Them,And,Eat Them.
Shaggy and Fred looked at the Chocolate Statues,With Interest.
As They Both,Reached Out,And,Grabbed Their Chocolate Statues,Ready to Eat Them.
Shaggy Chuckled as He looked at His.
He loved,How,It looked,Exactly,Like Him.
"Oh,Wow,Like,A Tiny Chocolate Me,That,I can Consume," Shaggy said as He looked at his Chocolate Statue,With Excitement.
Shaggy and Fred Both Smiled as They Each took a Bite,Out Of Their Statue.
Both Boys started Chomping Down,On It,Already.
Ms. Bjorkland lowered It Down,To Louis and Scooby,For Them to grab Their's.
Scooby licked his Lips as He looked at his Chocolate Statue.
He picked It Up,In his Paws,And,Stuffed It,Into his Mouth.
Even,Louis looked at It,With Interest.
He was,Still,Starving.
Those Meatballs weren't Enough.
Besides,He hadn't,Even,Had Chocolate,Before.
However,That was,About to Change.
He grabbed It,And,Took a Bite,Out of It.
"Ooh,This is Good," Louis whispered,as He chewed It,Smiling Happily.
"I Know,Right," Scooby replied,Cheerfully,as He ate His.
Ms. Moder walked,Over to Daphne,With the Silver Platter,And,Her Chocolate Statue.
She lowered the Platter,Down to Her,For Her to take It.
Daphne turned to Her as She saw Her,Lower It to Her.
"Oh,No Thanks,I,Um,Try to avoid Chocolate,I,Uh,Well,Let's,Just Say,That,The Last Time,I ate It,Things got a Little Crazy," Daphne explained,as She,Politely,Refused the Chocolate,Not Wanting to get,That Crazy,Again.
Shaggy,Louis,Scooby and Fred,All looked at Her with Weirded Out Looks.
As They saw Her,Refuse It.
The Three Daughters's Smiles,Quickly,Turned to Frowns,When,They heard That.
As They All Three started Crying,Being Quite Insulted,At Daphne's Explanation.
Shaggy,Louis,Fred and Scooby turned to the Girls,Seeing Them Crying.
And,They knew,Exactly,Who did It.
They All Four turned to Daphne as They glared at Her,Angrily.
Not liking,How She made Them Cry.
"Uh,Uh," Scooby muttered,Firmly,Ushering his Paw to Daphne,Pushing Her to take It,And,Apologize.
"Well,Uh,I don't want to be Rude," Daphne re-phrased as She stood Up,And,Took the Chocolate Statue,Anyway.
All Eight of Them looked at Her,As They waited for Her to Eat It.
Daphne moved the Chocolate Statue,Slowly,And,Easily,To Her Mouth.
Daphne moved It to her Teeth.
And,Took,Just a Little Bite of It,Only Eating a Few Crumbs.
Daphne froze as It entered Her Mouth.
"Uh,Daph,Are You Okay?" Louis asked,In Concern as He saw Her Freeze.
Louis and Scooby looked at Each Other,In Worry,as They looked Back at Her.
Daphne started Twitching,as the Chocolate entered her System.
She Shook and Twitched as She swallowed the Little Crumbs.
While,They were,Relaxing Over at the House.
Mr. E was,Back in his Headquarters,Sitting in his Chair,Doing his Own Form of Relaxing,as He played his Favorite Tune,On his Little Keyboard.
He played his Favorite Tune as He looked at a Picture of Him and Pericles,When They were Younger.
Boy,Had He Missed That.
He Stopped,Playing the Tune as He continued to Stare at It.
He Sighed,In Disappointment,as He looked at the Photo.
"Were We Ever So Young?" Ricky/Mr. E Said,To Himself,as He stared at the Picture.
Starting to Remember the Time,When They first Met.
It was a Beautiful Day,Like,Any Other.
That One Day was,When his Whole Life Changed for the Better.
Or,At Least,So,He had Thought,At the Time.
Young Ricky sat There,In his Front Yard,Playing.
Playing with his Little Toy Bull Dozer.
He rolled It,On the Ground,Over and Over,Again as He played with It.
Rolling It Across the Grass.
He heard a Loud Repetitive Flapping Noise as He played with his Toy.
The Flapping Noise got Closer and Closer,The More He ingored It,And,Played.
But,The Noise,Suddenly,Ended.
When Little Ricky heard a Large Thud,Come From,Right Behind Him.
Young Ricky got Up,In Alarm,After Hearing the Thud
He got Up,And,Ran Over to the Source of the Thudding Sound.
He ran to the Tree,Where the Thud had been Heard.
And,There on the Ground.
Was a Small Purple Parrot.
Little Ricky looked at the Poor Creature with Concern,as He saw It,Laying There,Motionless
The Little Purple Parrot looked Up at Ricky,Seeing Him,Staring at Him,as It grasped It's ,Now,Hurt Wing.
It had hit It,Against the Tree,Accidentally,When It fell.
Ricky,Slowly,Reached his Hands Out,To the Parrot,To pick Him Up,In his Arms.
The Bird put,On a Serious Face,And,Cawed at Him,In Defense,Not wanting Him to touch Him.
Ricky jumped Back,In Surprise,as He saw Him Caw at Him.
Ricky took a Deep Breath In and Out.
As He reached Out to the Bird,Once Again.
And,Picked Him Up,Easily,Into his Arms.
Young Ricky Smiled,Tenderly,at the Bird as He rocked Him,Gently,In his Arms.
That was the First Time,The Two had Met.
It was the Beginning of the Two's Relationship.
But,Not the End.
Cause,After a Few Days.
Ricky had Already made a Little Bed for the Little Pericles,In his Top Drawer.
He had given Him a Little Blanket,A Warm Bed,Some Water,And,Even Food.
Ricky picked Up a Small Sunflower Seed,In his Hands.
And,Handed It,Over to Pericles's Mouth.
Pericles opened Wide,as He waited for Ricky to put It,In his Mouth.
Ricky dropped It,Into his Mouth,Gently.
Pericles Smiled at Him as He chewed the Sunflower Seed.
Ricky picked Up,Another One,as He dropped It,Into Pericles's Mouth.
After a Couple of Months,Pericles had been Nursed Back to Health.
With his Wing,Now,Feeling So Much Better.
Now,He had the Ability to Fly,Again.
Ricky picked Pericles Up,In his Hands as He held Him,Up to the Sky.
Pericles lifted Himself,Up,Off Ricky's Hands,As He began to Fly,Into the Air,Once More.
He flew Up,High,Into the Sky,Flying Around,In the Air.
Happy to be Flying,Again
He Smiled,Happily,as He began to Fly Off,Away from Ricky.
Ricky watched Him Fly Around,In the Sky,Happily.
He was Glad,To see his Friend,Back in the Skies,Enjoying Himself.
But,Something came to Mind as He watched Pericles,Fly Away.
Was He Really gonna Stick Around?
He had,No Reason to,Anymore.
His Friend was Perfectly,Healthy,Now.
Ricky's Smile Faded as It turned to a Frown.
He had,Just,Lost his Best Friend.
He was Never,Gonna see Him,Again.
And,That,Made Him,Quite Sad.
Ricky turned Around,as He started to Walk Back,Into his House,With his Head hanging Down.
As Ricky walked to his Front Door,Disappointedly.
Pericles Appeared as He flew,Into his Best Friend's Path.
Blocking Him,From going to his Front Door.
Ricky Smiled,Contentedly,When He discovered,That,His Friend wasn't going Anywhere.
Ricky was,So,Happy,That,His Friend was Staying.
Now,They would never leave Each Other's Sides.
Suddenly.
Mr E's Keyboard dropped to the Floor.
Knocking Mr. E Out of the Flashback,In Alarm,From the Sudden Noise.
He saw the Keyboard,On the Floor,Which was What made the Loud Sound.
He let Out a Sigh of Relief,Relieved,That,It wasn't,What He thought,It was.
Mr E turned Back to the Picture,That,He was looking at,With Young Them.
As He let Out,Another Disappointed Sigh,as He went Back,To Playing his Music,While,Looking at the Photo.
Back at Moder Bjorkland's House.
Fred,Louis,Shaggy and Scooby were discussing,Their Theories and Clues about the Current Mystery.
"Okay,The Only Clue,From This Investigation,I've got So Far is,That,Moder Bjorkland and the Graveyard Ghoul are,Pretty Much,The Same Height," Fred stated,Announcing the Only Thing,That,He had noticed,Throughout the Entire Time,That,They had been There.
And,The Only Reason,That,That was All,He noticed,Was,Because,He had been paying More Attention to the Daughters,Than Any Clues.
Even,Louis had More,Than,He did.
"That's Reason Enough,To Stay,And,Eat More Meatballs," Scooby added,Wanting to Stay,Only for the Meatballs.
"Uh,Guys,Am I?" Louis tried to Say,Trying to remind the Gang,About Why They were There.
Before Shaggy interrupted Him.
"You said It,Scoob,Let's Meatball Up," Shaggy agreed,Also,Wanting to stay for the Meatballs,And,The Daughters.
Glad,That,He was,Actually,Getting his Friend Back.
This was the Most,The Two had Spent Time with in Awhile.
Or,At Least,That's What Shaggy Thought.
"Hello,Am I the Only One,Still,Focused on This Mystery? It's like,Everyone Else has Forgotten about,Why We're Here," Louis questioned,Angrily,Reminding the Gang,About Why They were,Truly,There.
"We're Focused,Louis,Don't Worry," Fred reassured.
"Like,Yeah,We're,Totally Focused," Shaggy lied,Not Really Focused on That,Or,Even,Wanting to be Focused on That.
"Right," Louis murmured,Irritatedly.
"What about You? Daph,What do You Think?" Fred wondered,Wanting Daphne's Opinion,On the Situation.
Louis,Scooby and Shaggy,Also,Turned to Daphne,Waiting for Her Answer.
She sat,Across from Them.
Still,Twitching,as She had a Whole Pile of Chocolate,Beside Her,And,Some,Even,In her Hands.
As She continued,To Eat More and More Chocolate.
Starting to look a Little Cross-Eyed.
"Chocolate,Chocolate,Daphne loves Chocolate," Daphne announced as She squeezed the Chocolate,In her Hands,While,Nuzzling the Chocolate Bars.
Fred,Louis,Scooby and Shaggy looked at Her,With Weirded Out Looks.
"Well,She's not being Any Help," Shaggy commented,Quietly.
That was When.
The Four Boys heard the Door to the House Open.
The Boys turned to the Door,To See,Who It was.
As They saw,That,It was Velma.
She had,Just,Walked Through the Door,as She closed It behind Her.
"Hey,Velma,Finally gave Up on That Evallo Lead,Huh?" Fred guessed,Greeting Her,Before,Hoping,That,She had dropped her Previous Accusation.
"It is Evallo,And,I've got the Proof,He got shut Down on a Work Permit,For being Registered as Pure Evil," Velma explained,Insisting,That,She was Right,Like,She knew She was,as She crossed her Arms,Confidently.
"Good Enough for Me,I'm in,Vel," Louis agreed,as He left Scooby's Side,And,Rolled over to Velma's Side,Besides,He knew,They,Clearly,Weren't getting Anywhere,Here.
"Finally,Someone,How about You Two?" Velma asked,Wondering about Fred and Shaggy,Hoping,They were Coming,Too.
"Look,Velma,It's never the Obvious Suspect,You know That,Better than Anyone," Shaggy responded,Still,Sticking with Fred's Plan,Before,Pointing Out Her Supposed Mistake.
"Hey," Velma retorted,Angrily,as She was about to shoot Back,Another Insult.
"Now,Like,Help Us,Investigate This Lovely Woman and her Three Perfect Daughters," Shaggy offered,Nicely,After,Being Mean to Her,Previously,as He put his Feet Up,On the Table.
"Jinkies,You Two are Hopeless," Velma lashed Out,Furiously,as She threw Her Hands,In the Air,With Anger,as She walked Over to Daphne,To Ask Her.
"Ouch," Fred and Shaggy whispered,Offended by Velma's Lash Out.
"Daphne,Looks like,It's Up to You, Me and," Velma tried to Say,So,She could Explain the Situation,So,That,She could go with Her.
As Velma Spoke,Daphne stared at Her Candy Bars,With Fascination and Love.
"Mine,It's All Mine,You can't have It,Go Away,Mine," Daphne shouted Out,Hoarding Her Chocolate as She assumed,That,Velma was,After her Precious,Grasping her Chocolate,Tightly.
"O-O-Okay,If You Guys won't Help,Me and Louis are going at It,Alone," Velma informed,In a Infuriated Tone,as She stormed Out the Door,With Louis,Right Behind Her.
Both being the Only Two,Actually,Caring about the Mystery.
At Least,So,They thought.
As The Two Walked and Rolled Out.
Scooby watched Them Both leave.
He looked at Them,And,Immediately,Started Worrying about The Two of Them.
Worried about Their Safety.
And,It wasn't,Just,Louis,That,He was worried About.
He was,Extremely Worried about Velma,As Well.
"Hmm," Scooby mumbled to Himself as He looked Out the Window,Watching Louis and Velma Walk and Roll Out of Sight.
At the Cemetery.
Velma and Louis Walked and Rolled,Through the Cemetery,Looking for Any Sight of Some Clues.
They were,Hoping to Find Some,So,They could put,This Mystery to Bed.
The Two Walked,In Silence,Not Saying a Word to Each Other,as They walked Around.
Suddenly.
Thunder Clapped,Loudly,as The Sound Rumbled,Throughout the Whole Graveyard.
Scaring Them Both as They heard the Sudden Clap.
Louis and Velma Gasped,In Surprise as They Stopped,Moving for a Minute,When They heard the Thunder.
Wind began to blow,Through the Area,as They Walked.
Velma shivered as She felt the Cold Wind blow.
"Whoa,It's Pretty Cold Out Here,Tonight," Louis pointed Out as He Grasped his Arms,Tightly,Trying to keep Himself Warm,Feeling the Wind,As Well.
"You're telling M-M-Me," Velma commented as She grasped Her Own Arms,Tightly,Too.
As They Both Struggled to Stay Warm,While,Walking through the Cemetery.
As The Two looked for Clues,A Wolf Howled,Into the Night,From Close By.
"Huh," Velma responded,Hearing the Dog's Howl,From Nearby,as She Started to get,Kind of Freaked Out.
"Don't Worry,It's,Just a Wolf,Howling at the Moon," Louis reassured,With a Slight Smile,Trying to reassure Her,That,Everything was Fine,Even,Though,He was,Kind of Scared,Himself.
"Yeah,Yeah,Of Course," Velma answered,Nervously,as She looked to the Side,Struggling to Stay Calm,In This Situation.
Velma and Louis started Walking and Rolling,Again,as They continued looking,Around for Clues.
"Hey,Mr. Graveyard Ghoul," Louis called Out,Calling Him,To make Sure,If He was Around,Or Not.
As the Wind continued to blow Through,Part of a Branch to One of the Trees Snapped,From How Hard the Wind was Blowing.
Velma and Louis Gasped as They turned Around,In Alarm,Looking for the Source of the Sound.
Thinking,That,A Twig was Snapping.
They thought,That,It was the Graveyard Ghoul.
When They turned Around,They saw a Large Shadow,Move,Swiftly,From a Few Feet,In Front of Them.
Thunder continued to Clap as They saw the Shadow,Disappear,Into the Trees.
Once the Two saw It,Disappear,They,Immediately,Freaked Out.
Louis and Velma Screamed as They Both,Took Off Running,In Fear.
Velma ran,Through the Graveyard,In the Lead,As She Ran,Across the Graveyard,Screaming the Whole Time.
Louis rolled,Closely,Behind Her,Panting and Screaming,Himself.
He looked Back,To see,If the Figure was,Still,Following Them.
As He looked Back,He saw a Figure,Running,In the Trees,Definitely,Following Them.
"It's,Still,Following Us," Louis notified,Fearfully,as He continued,Rolling Away from It.
Both Louis and Velma were Really Scared,At the Moment.
They didn't want the Ghoul,To Catch Them.
They wanted to Stay Alive,Preferably.
Velma jumped,Over Gravestones,In Front of Louis,So,She could get Away,Faster.
Louis rolled,By Her Side,Trying his Best to keep Up,With Her,And,To Protect Her,Of Course.
Velma looked Back,In Concern,Wondering How Close,It Was to Them.
She looked,Through the Trees,as She ran,Looking for Any Sight of the Ghoul.
"I don't See It," Velma warned as She continued to Run as She looked Back,As Well,Doing Both,At the Same Time.
"Just,Keep Running," Louis requested as He rolled,In Front of Her,Now,Leading the Way
Velma didn't pay Attention,To What He was Saying,She was Too Busy,Looking Back and Screaming.
And,That was a Bad Thing.
Cause,As She looked Behind Her,She wasn't paying Attention,To What was,In Front of Her.
A Stone Book laid,On the Floor,In Front of Her,But,She wasn't paying Attention to It.
So,She tripped,Over It,as She fell to the Ground,Landing,Right on her Face.
Louis turned Around,Seeing Velma laying,On the Ground,On her Stomach.
"Velma," Louis called as He rolled,Back,Over to Her,Going to go help Her Up.
Velma started to get Up,To Continue Running.
Louis tried to help Her Up,as,Quickly as He could.
But,As She was getting Up.
The Duo heard,Large and Quick Steps,Coming Towards Them.
And,They were Coming Fast.
They,Both,Turned to the Direction of the Steps as They Screamed Out,In Fear,as They watched It Approach.
As the Shadow came Out,Of the Trees,And,Into the Light.
It revealed,It to be...
Scooby-Doo.
"Velma,Louis," Scooby shouted Out to Them,Walking into the Light,Revealing Himself as He looked at Them with a Worried Look.
"Scooby," Louis and Velma responded,At the Same Time,In Relief,And,Surprise,as They Smiled,Happily.
Louis rolled,Over to his Best Friend,Ready to,Just,Hug Him,Tightly.
And,Never Let Go.
Louis put his Arms,Around Scooby,as He hugged Him,Firmly,So Happy,To find Him,There,And,Not the Graveyard Ghoul.
"Whoa,Take It Easy,It's not like I died,We were,Only Separated for Sixteen Minutes," Scooby stated,Raising an Eyebrow,as Louis hugged Him,Confused,On,Why,He was So Happy to see Him.
"Oh,Scooby,We thought,You were the Ghoul," Velma said,as She came,Running to Scooby,As Well.
As Louis hugged Him,To Him,Velma grabbed Scooby's Face.
And,Hugged his Face to Her.
As They Both Hugged Him.
"Wow,Maybe,I should leave,More Often,I like This Attention," Scooby added as His Tail Wagged,From,All the Attention,He was getting.
"Why are You Following Us?" Louis asked,In Curiosity,as He,Still,Hugged Him.
"I was Worried about You Two," Scooby replied,Happily,as They Both hugged Him.
Louis and Velma let Go of Scooby,Now,Glad,That,They were No Longer,Alone,Anymore.
"Thanks,Scoob,I was starting to Think,That,No One cared,About Solving This Mystery," Velma informed,Softly as She Cradled Scooby's Face.
As She talked,More Flashes of Lightning,Happened,Lighting Up the Whole Cemetery.
Revealing the Graveyard Ghoul,To be,Right There,In Front of Them,Hidden,In Plain Sight.
Scooby Smiled as She cradled his Face.
"I Care," Scooby reassured,Happily,as He looked at Her,Smiling Wide.
"Me Too," Louis said,Agreeing with Scooby's Statement,as He put his Arm,Around Scooby's Shoulder.
That was When.
The Graveyard Ghoul started to Laugh Out Loud,Evily.
To let Them Know,That,He was There,Too.
The Three Gasped as They turned to the Direction of the Laugh.
Louis,Scooby and Velma turned to the Tree.
As They started to Back Up,Away,From the Tree,Seeing Him,There,In the Darkness,Leaning Against the Tree.
Velma Screamed,Once Again,as She Backed Up,Starting to Really Freak Out.
Scooby and Louis Backed Away,Slowly,as They looked at Him,With Fear,On Their Faces.
"So do I," The Graveyard Ghoul announced,as He walked Out of the Shadows,Into the Light,Revealing Himself.
Drool started to drip Down,His Mouth,as He Spoke.
He Roared Out,In The Three's Faces,As He attempted to Scare Them,By Roaring in Their Faces.
He Smiled,Wickedly,as He stood Up,Fiercely,Ready to Attack Them.
Scooby,Velma and Louis continued to Back Up,The Closer,That,The Graveyard Ghoul got.
The Graveyard Ghoul Roared as He leaped at Them,About to Attack The.
The Trio Screamed,At the Same Time,as They saw Him,Coming at Them.
"Run," Louis shouted,Seeing Him,Jump at Them.
The Three Moved,Out of the Ghoul's Path,Making Him Miss
When He Missed,He ended Up,Hitting One of the Graves,Knocking Out Some of his Teeth.
The Boys took Off,Running Away,While,He was,Busy with the Grave,With Velma,Right Behind Them.
The Graveyard Ghoul spit Out,His Busted Teeth.
As He Growled,Ferociously,Before,Jumping,From One Grave,Onto Another.
He Roared at the Three,Once Again,as He saw Them,Stop,For a Minute.
As The Ghoul Roared,Velma clinged to Scooby,Tightly,Out of Fear,Just,Wanting to Cling to a Strong Boy,At the Moment.
They started,Running Away,From Him,Again,Trying to get Away,From Him,So,They could find More Clues.
He jumped,Off the Grave,And,Towards Them,Attempting to Pounce,On Them.
Velma and Scooby Screamed as They looked,Behind Them,To See,How Close He Was.
They saw Him,Flying Towards Them,From the Jump.
Velma ducked,Immediately,Making Him miss Her.
Scooby saw,Through,What was going to Happen Next as He jumped,Onto Louis,And,Tackled Him,To the Ground,Forcing Him Off his Wheelchair.
Saving Him,From the Ghoul.
"Thanks," Louis thanked.
"Don't Mention It,Now,Come On," Scooby replied,In a Scared Tone,as He got Louis,Onto his Back,And,Started Running,Again.
Velma got to Her Feet,as She ran,After Them.
When,All of a Sudden.
The Graveyard Ghoul,Jumped in Front of Them,Scaring All Three of Them.
The Ghoul picked Up the Grave Stone,And,Lifted It,Over his Head,To Try and Crush Them,With It.
Velma Screamed Out,Seeing It,as She clinged to Scooby's Neck.
"Ruh Roh," Scooby yelled,as He turned Around,Trying to Run a Different Direction.
As He started to Run,In a Different Direction,The Ghoul threw the Grave Stone at Scooby,Just,Barely Missing his Tail as He managed to Run Away,From It,Just in Time.
The Graveyard Ghoul Snarled as He saw,That,He Missed.
Scooby saw the Gate,Close By.
He Gasped as He saw It.
He turned to the Direction of the Gate,And,Headed,That Way,To get Both Velma and Louis,To Safety.
Velma,Still,Clinging to Scooby's Neck,Was,Now,Hanging in the Air,Starting to have Issues,Holding,Onto Him.
Louis saw Her,Having Trouble holding On.
"I got Ya,Vel," Louis announced as He grabbed Her Arm,And,Pulled Her Up,Onto Scooby's Back.
As They Both sat,On Scooby's Back,Louis wrapped his Arms,Around Scooby's Neck to hold On.
While,Velma put her Arms,Around Louis's Waist,To Hang On.
Scooby panted as He got Closer and Closer to the Gate.
He saw,That,It was Close Enough.
"Hold On," Scooby shouted Out,To Both Louis and Velma,Trying to Inform Them to Really Hang On,On This Next Part.
"Scooby,That's a Tall Gate,How are You gonna Jump That?" Louis questioned,In Concern,Warning his Friend,About,How Tall the Gate was.
"I Know,Lou,Just Trust Me," Scooby pleaded as He ran,To the Gate,Getting Ready to Jump.
Louis Gulped as He buried his Face,In Scooby's Neck,as He was,About to make the Jump.
Scooby ran,As Fast as He could,Towards the Gate.
The Minute,He was Close Enough.
Scooby jumped Up,High,Into the Air.
As He,Jumped Up,So High,That,He jumped,Right Over the Gate.
Over to the Other Side.
Louis and Velma Screamed as They saw Scooby Up,In the Air.
And,They All Screamed,When He made It,To the Other Side.
Louis,Scooby and Velma,All Screamed as He made It to the Other Side.
As Scooby landed,Right,Onto his Side,On the Safe Side of the Gate.
Getting Louis and Velma,To Safety.
And,Being,Now,Out of the Graveyard.
Both being Successful.
Scooby,Louis and Velma opened Their Eyes,as They saw Themselves,On the Other Side.
The Trio turned to the Gate.
As They looked Inside,Seeing the Graveyard Ghoul,There,Almost,In Front of Them.
He Roared Out,At Them,One Last Time,Before He turned Around,And,Headed Back to his Business.
The Three of Them laid There,By the Gate,Staring at It.
"Are You Okay,V?" Louis mentioned,Asking Her,In Concern.
"Yeah,Yeah,I'm Good," Velma answered,Softly,Trying to Calm Down,From the Attack,They,Just Had,as She got Off Scooby's Back,And,Sat on the Ground,Beside Them.
"How about You? Big Guy," Louis wondered,as He patted Scooby's Head,Slightly,Still,Laying on Scooby's Back.
"Good," Scooby responded,Quickly,Still,Staring at the Graveyard,In Shock.
"You Sure? That was,Quite a Jump," Louis questioned,Trying to make Sure,He was Okay.
"Yeah,Yeah,I'm Fine," Scooby Whispered,Answering Louis's Question as He sat Up.
"Good,Good," Louis added,Attempting to Calm Down,Himself,He was Pretty Riled Up,At the Moment.
"There is No Way,That,That Ghoul is Moder Bjorkland," Scooby pointed Out,Firmly,as He pointed to the,Now,Gone,Graveyard Ghoul.
"Boy,Am I with You There,Scoob," Louis commented,Merrily.
That was When.
Scooby Smelled Something.
Scooby Sniffed the Air,Smelling Something Weird in It.
"What's That Smell?" Scooby asked,In Curiosity,as He Sniffed the Air,Trying to Place,The Familiar Scent.
"I don't Know,I Smell It,Each Time,That,We're in the Cemetery," Louis informed,Sniffing the Air,Too,Also Wondering What the Familiar Scent was.
"I don't Know,Either,I thought,It was,Just,My Sweater,It gets a Little Funky,When I Sweat," Velma replied,Stating Something,That,The Other Two didn't,Really,Want to Know, as She smelled the Inside of her Sweater.
Scooby Sniffed the Air,Continuously,To See,If,Maybe,He could Remember the Scent,The More,He Smelled It.
"Hmm," Scooby muttered as He Smelled the Air,Looking for the Answer,Before turning to Velma,as She began to Speak.
"Come On,You Two,If the Gang won't believe Us,I think,I know,Someone,Who will," Velma announced as She stood Up,And,Started to Walk Away.
Scooby got Back,On his Paws,As Well,as He Walked After Her,Following Velma's Lead.
"Boy,I Hope So,Or,Otherwise,We're,Really On Our Own," Louis added,Still,Sitting on Scooby's Back,Really Wanting Help on This Mystery,Just,As Much,as Velma.
At the Crystal Cove Police Department.
Velma,Louis and Scooby were Explaining the Situation,To Sheriff Stone,Of All People.
Velma stood,In Front of Sheriff Stone's Desk,as She explained to Him.
"And,That's Why,I'm Sure,That,Evallo is the Graveyard Ghoul," Velma finished,Finally Ending the Whole Explanation,That,The Three had been doing for an Entire Hour.
"Yeah,This Evallo Von Meanskrieg Guy,Definitely,Sounds Guilty," Sheriff Stone commented,Agreeing with The Three's Theory.
"Finally,Someone," Louis whispered,In Relief,Relieved to have Someone Else,as He sat in a Spare Wheelchair.
"Which is Why,I won't be Arresting Him," Sheriff Stone informed,Calmly.
"Huh," Velma responded,In Confusion,Surprised,That,He was,Actually,Refusing to Arrest Someone.
"What?" Scooby and Louis replied,In Unison,Both,Lifting an Eyebrow.
"Oh,Look,Every Time,I think,It's the Guy,And,I arrest Him,It Always ends Up,Being the Wrong Guy,Do You know,How Many Wrongful Arrest Lawsuits,I have Pending?" Sheriff Stone explained,Eludicating to Them,Why He wasn't going to do Anything.
Scooby Frowned as Sheriff Stone's Complaints.
"You're,Just,Worrying about This,Now?" Louis pointed Out,Pointing Out the Lapse in Sheriff Stone's Logic.
"I have,A Lot," Sheriff Stone lashed Out,Angrily,as He laid his Head,On his Arm,as He Sulked,Like a Child,Ignoring Louis's Previous Statement.
Scooby laid his Head,Down,On Sheriff Stone's Desk,as He stared at Sheriff Stone,With One Eyebrow Raised.
"You are a Terrible Sheriff," Scooby stated,Plainly,as He stared at Sheriff Stone.
Louis Chuckled as He heard Scooby's Comment.
Sheriff Stone Growled,Silently,at Scooby's Insult,Annoyed with Him,Like,He Always was.
"Sounds like the Talking Dog's been talking to my Lawyer," Sheriff Stone answered,Turning Away,From Scooby,In Anger.
"Come On,Sheriff Stone,Go with your Gut,This is your Chance to Arrest the Right Guy,For Once,And,Be a Somewhat Competent Sheriff," Velma pleaded,Trying her Best to get Him to see Her Way.
Sheriff Stone stopped Sulking,And,Turned to Velma.
"Hmm,Somewhat Competent,Go On,I'm Listening," Sheriff Stone repeated,Liking What,She,Just Said,as He requested for Her,To Continue to Complement Him.
Louis and Scooby looked at Each Other,And,Shook Their Heads,In Annoyance,as They listened to Sheriff Stone act the Fool.
Back at the Cemetery.
The Next Morning.
The Four met Up,In the Middle,To Discuss Where to Go,From There.
"Alright,According to My Note Pad,And,Velma's Map,All the Ghoul's Movements,Center Around That Old Mausoleum," Louis explained,as Him and Velma looked at the Map and the Note Pad,With Sheriff Stone and Scooby looking,Over Their Shoulders.
"So,If We're Correct,Whatever is in That Mausoleum,The Graveyard Ghoul doesn't want Us to See," Velma pointed Out,as She pointed to the Mausoleum,That was,In Front of Them.
Scooby Gulped,In Concern,as He heard Them.
"Scary," Scooby said as He clinged to Louis,In Terror.
Sheriff Stone and Louis grasped the Door,as They pushed It,Open.
Sheriff Stone grabbed his Flashlight,And,Turned It On.
"Alright,Let's go In," Sheriff Stone ordered as He led the Way,With his Flashlight.
Velma,Louis and Scooby followed In,After Him.
Scooby sniffed the Air,To See,If This Mausoleum had Anything to do with the Strange Smell.
"Hm,There's That Same Smell," Scooby mentioned as He sniffed the Air.
Louis Smelled the Air,Once Again,Along with Scooby.
"Yep,There's That Smell,Again,If My Facts and Clues are Correct,I know,Exactly,What It is," Louis stated as He rolled,Over to the Source of the Smell,With Scooby,Following Close behind Him.
"So,What is It?" Scooby asked,In Curiosity,as He looked Around,For Any Sight of Something Strange.
"Yep,Just,What I thought,It's Gas," Louis added,as He looked at the Proof,That,It was Gas.
"Clearly,Someone has been,Using These Pipes to drill,For Natural Gas,Under the Cemetery," Velma explained as She pointed to the Pipes,And,The Big Hole,That,They were looking at.
"Look,That's Stupid,There's No Gas,Under the Graveyard,All the Gas is,Under the Crystal Cove Gas Company,Next Door,I thought,You were Good at This," Sheriff Stone commented,Trying to be Smart,as He shined his Flashlight,In Velma and Louis's Faces.
"That's the Point,Sheriff Stone,And,I know,Exactly,Who did It," Louis replied,as He closed his Note Pad,Now,Having found the Connection,Through All the Clues,That,He had Written down.
He had,Actually,Done It.
He had,Successfully,Found the Connection and Solved the Mystery,With,Just his Note Pad,And,His Two Best Friends.
"Scooby,Louis,Sheriff,This Mystery is Coming Together,And,In the Immortal Words of Fred Jones,It's Trapping Time," Velma announced,Proudly,With Sheriff Stone,Louis and Scooby,By Her Side.
Meanwhile.
Back at the Bjorkland House.
Fred was,Chopping Up,Some Wood,Dressed in Some Lederhosen.
Fred picked Up,The Wood,In his Hands,And,Headed to Carry It Inside.
Shaggy walked past Fred,With Two Buckets Full of Water.
The Two had gotten,Majorly Distracted,To the Point.
That,Now,They were helping,the Bjorklands,Around the House.
The Three Daughters opened the Door,For Fred and Shaggy.
As The Two walked Inside,With Their Hands Full.
"Like,Wow,Whoever Thought,Working in Lederhosen,Would be So Much Fun?" Shaggy noted as He walked,Inside,With Both Buckets of Water.
Fred Walked,Close,Behind Him,With the Wood,as They headed to the Kitchen,To set the Stuff Down.
"Hi,Daph," Fred called,as He past Her,With his Hands Full of Wood,On the Way to the Kitchen.
Daphne Cackled,Wickedly,as She watched him,Pass By.
She glared at Him,as She saw Him,Leave into the Kitchen.
Daphne Twitched,Repeatedly,as She ate More Chocolate.
She Growled as She watched the Boys,Being very Distrustful of Them.
Thinking,They were,Trying to steal her Chocolate.
At the Same Time.
At the Cemetery.
The Four were,Walking Up a Hill,as They prepared the Bait,For the Trap.
Velma and Scooby were,Up Front,Leading the Other Two,as They walked Up,In Silence.
While,Louis and Sheriff Stone were,Behind Them.
Louis rolled,Up the Hill,Very Slowly.
Since,He was,In a Wheelchair,He had a Hard Time,Rolling Up the Hill,Cause,It took a Lot of Strength.
Which was Why,He was,In the Back.
Sheriff Stone walked,Behind Louis,as He carried his Giant Grill,Up the Hill.
"This is It,This is My Moment,I know It," Sheriff Stone cheered,as He pulled his Grill,Up the Hill,With his Chain.
Scooby and Velma looked at Each Other,as They heard Him.
Scooby gave Her an Annoyed Look.
Velma,Just,Silently,Nodded,Stating,That,He was,Always like This.
"I am,Finally,Going to Arrest the Right Guy," Sheriff Stone continued,as Him and the Gang,Finally,Made It Up the Hill.
The Minute,Louis made It,He let Out a Sigh of Relief.
He Panted as He rolled Over to Scooby.
"Finally,Finally,I made It," Louis whispered as He rolled to Scooby,And,Laid Over Scooby's Back,Trying to catch his Breath.
Scooby shook his Head,Playfully.
"It'll be Okay,You,Just,Need to Catch your Breath," Scooby reassured,Softly.
"Yeah,Yeah,It'll take a Few Minutes,Though," Louis pointed Out,as He continued to Pant,While,Laying on Scooby's Back.
"Yeah,Probably," Scooby agreed as He,Just,Stood There,While,Louis laid,On his Back.
Sheriff Stone,Giggled,In Excitement,as He set his Grill,Down,Near the Mausoleum.
He put,On his Pot Holders,as He continued to Cheer,More and More.
"Ah,Here We are," Sheriff Stone Shouted,Out Loud,For the Whole Graveyard to hear Him,as He had Three Patties,On his Grill,Already Cooking.
"A Barbecue?" Velma questioned as She saw Him,Put the Burgers,On the Grill,Having Mixed Feelings,About This Bait.
"Sure,No Self-Respecting Ghoul can resist Good American Style Barbecue,That's,Just a Fact," Sheriff Stone stated,as He put Four More Patties,Onto the Grill.
"I know,I can't," Scooby added as He stared at the Burgers,With Interest,Before licking his Lips,In Excitement.
Louis sat,Back,In his Wheelchair,In Happiness,Now,That,He,Finally,Caught his Breath.
Scooby picked Up a Bun,as He put Tomato and Lettuce,On It.
Before Handing It to Sheriff Stone.
Sheriff Stone grabbed the Spatula,as He took Three Cooked Juicy Patties,Off the Grill,And,Onto Scooby's Bun.
Scooby put the Other Bun,On Top,Completing the Burger.
As He took a Giant Bite,Out of It.
Scooby chewed it,For,About a Minute,Before Spitting It Out,Onto the Ground.
"Wow,Is It That Gross?" Louis wondered,as He saw Scooby Spit It Out.
"Whoa,Whoa,Whoa,That's Some of My Best Barbecue," Sheriff Stone complained,as He saw Scooby,Spit It Out,And,Immediately,Got Offended.
"The Graveyard Ghoul," Scooby yelled,as He pointed to the Top of the Mausoleum,Where the Graveyard Ghoul,Stood.
Thunder Rumbled and Lightning Struck,Behind the Ghoul,as He,Stood,On the Roof of the Mausoleum.
"I don't believe It,Your Idea,Actually Worked," Velma commented as The Four stood There,Frozen,as They saw the Graveyard Ghoul.
"A Little Too Well," Louis informed,as He hid,Behind Velma,In Fear.
The Graveyard Ghoul laughed,Wickedly,as He looked Down,Upon Them,Ready to Scare More People.
"Spring the Trap," Scooby commanded,From,Behind Velma,Louis and Sheriff Stone,Just,Wanting It to be Over,As Soon as Possible.
"There was Supposed to be a Trap?" Sheriff Stone asked,In Confusion.
"Yes," Scooby,Louis and Velma answered,In Unison,In Angry Tones.
"Darn It," Sheriff Stone complained,Hitting his Fist,On his Grill.
The Graveyard Ghoul looked at Them,And,Smiled,Confidently.
But,The Smile,Quickly,Faded.
When He turned to the Grill.
"No,No," The Graveyard Ghoul shouted,as He saw the Grill,And,Instantly,Panicked.
That Grill needed to Go.
And,He would do Anything to do It.
The Graveyard Ghoul Growled as He jumped Off,the Top of the Mausoleum,Into the Air.
"Aw,Phooey," Louis murmured as He watched the Graveyard Ghoul,Jump Off the Roof.
And,Landed,In Front of Them.
The Four Screamed as They All took Off Running,Into Different Directions.
The Graveyard Ghoul Roared,Loudly,at Them,As They All Split.
Sheriff Stone went Left,While,Louis and Velma went Right.
All Three getting Out of the Way,Leaving Scooby,All by Himself.
The Graveyard Ghoul turned to Scooby,as He saw Him,Ahead of Him.
The Graveyard Ghoul Roared,as He saw Scooby,There.
As He Roared,Right,In Scooby's Face.
"Yi-i-i-ikes," Scooby Shouted as He turned Around,And,Started Running Away from the Ghoul.
Scooby ran,Over the Chain to the Grill,as It wrapped Around his Back.
"Get Back Here," The Graveyard Ghoul demanded as He ran,After Scooby.
Scooby ran,Down the Hill,Unintentionally,Dragging the Grill,Down with Him.
The Graveyard Ghoul jumped Up,Into the Air,After Him.
Scooby moved,From Side to Side,Avoiding Each Obstacle,Trying not to Break Anything.
He ran,Down,Into the Other Graves,Towards the Exit.
The Graveyard Ghoul Roared as He chased,After Him.
"Guys,Help Me," Scooby called Out,Calling for Them to help Him,as He moved Out of the Way,Of Another Grave.
But,Most of Them couldn't hear Him.
Sheriff Stone was,Too Busy,Running Away,Instead of,Actually,Facing the Problem.
And,Velma was,Looking for Everyone,But,Couldn't find Them.
"Scooby,Scooby,I'm Over Here,Come to Me,Bud," Louis called,Trying to find Scooby,So,He could help Him.
The Graveyard Ghoul tried to Come at Scooby,From the Side.
Scooby Screamed as He turned the Other Way,Avoiding Him.
The Graveyard Ghoul Snarled as He,Jumped from Grave Stone to Grave Stone,Just to catch Him.
Scooby Panted as He kept Running.
He looked Back,To See,How Close He was.
He saw Him,Jump Closer and Closer to Him,The More,That,He looked Back.
Scooby's Ears Perked Up,as He Screamed,Out Again.
"Help Me,Louis," Scooby called Out,Calling for his Best Friend.
Further Away,Louis was looking for Him,Too.
"SD,Where are You?" Louis asked,Shouting as Loud as He could.
Scooby looked Back,To Check,Again,But,Saw Nothing.
The Graveyard Ghoul jumped,To his Other Side,Almost Catching Him,But,Still,Missing.
Scooby picked Up the Pace,as He turned Back to looking Ahead.
"Louis,Help,Help Me,Louis Parker," Scooby called Out,as Loud as He could,To Try and get Him,To Find Him.
"Scoobert,Scoobert Doo,I'm Over Here," Louis announced,From Behind the Mausoleum,as He looked,For Scooby.
The Ghoul jumped,Onto a Statue,Attempting to Jump on Him and the Grilol.
Scooby ran,Right Past the Statue,Dodging Him,Again.
The Ghoul jumped,Off the Statue,Onto the Ground,as He ran,Back after Him.
He jumped,From the Ground to a Gravestone.
And,From a Gravestone to a Tree.
As He jumped,Once Again,Before Disappearing.
Scooby continued Running,With the Grill Rolling,Quickly,Behind Him.
"Where did He Go?" Scooby questioned as He looked,From Side to Side,Looking for the Ghoul.
Suddenly.
The Graveyard Ghoul jumped,Right,In Front of Him,Roaring.
Scooby Screamed as He tried to Skid to a Stop,So,He could turned Around.
But,The Grill was,Rolling too Fast,To Stop.
It wouldn't Work.
The Grill hit Scooby's Ankle.
Bumping Him Off the Ground,And,Onto the Grill.
The Graveyard Ghoul Roared,at the Grill,Furiously.
As It rolled,Into the Ghoul,Bumping Him Off the Ground,And,Onto the Grill,As Well.
The Grill rolled,Down the hill,Really Quickly,With Scooby and the Ghoul,On It.
Towards the Same Mausoleum,That,The Pipes were in.
Scooby and the Graveyard Ghoul Screamed as They saw the Mausoleum,Coming Up Pretty Fast.
The Grill rammed,Into the Mausoleum Door,Kicking It Down to the Floor.
The Grill rolled Down the Steps,And,Right into the Pipes.
Bursting the Pipes Open.
And,Knocking Scooby and the Graveyard Ghoul,Off the Grill,And,Into the Wall.
The Graveyard Ghoul and Scooby,Both sank to the Ground,Hurt from the Impact.
But,What the Two didn't See.
Was the Busted Pipe leaking,Into the Burning Grill.
Scooby and the Ghoul Groaned,From the Pain,That,They were in,as They tried to get Up.
The Ghoul and Scooby turned to the Busted Pipe and Grill.
The Ghoul Gasped as He saw It.
"Uh Oh," Scooby muttered as He looked at It.
The Ghoul burst the Back Door,To the Mausoleum Open,Running Away,as He left Scooby,In There,Not Really Caring.
Scooby got to his Paws,And,Ran Out the Back Door,After the Ghoul,Immediately,To Escape,Before It blew Up.
"SD," Louis called as He saw Him,Running Out of the Mausoleum's Back Door.
"Louis," Scooby replied as He ran towards Him,And,Away from the,About to Explode Mausoleum.
The Mausoleum Exploded,Up,In Flames,Blasting the Remaining Pipes,Out of the Burning Building,And,Into the Air,Before Destroying the Entire Mausoleum.
Velma and Sheriff Stone fell to the Ground,On Their Butts,From the Explosion.
The Explosion blasted Scooby,Off his Feet,And,Into Louis.
Flipping Louis,Off his Wheelchair,And,To the Ground.
Scooby Groaned as He laid,On Louis's Chest.
"Ouch," Scooby whispered as He had his Head,Laying on Louis's Chest.
"You Okay? SD," Louis asked,In Concern,as He looked Up,To Scooby,To Check on Him.
"Yeah,Yeah,I think," Scooby responded,Looking to Louis,as He got Up,And,stood over Him.
Louis let out a Sigh of Relief.
"Oh,Thank Goodness,You had Me Worried There,For a Bit," Louis warned,as He hugged Scooby's Face to Him,as Scooby,Still,Stood,Over Him.
"Me Too," Scooby added,With a Muffled Voice,as Louis hugged his Face.
That was When.
A Pipe fell,On the Ground,Beside Them,Barely Missing Them,Getting Both of Their Attention,From the Sudden Noise..
"Uh,We should,Probably,Continue This Later," Louis suggested,Looking at How Close the Pipe was,With Worry.
"Yeah,Yeah,Good Idea," Scooby agreed as He pulled Louis Out,From Underneath Him,And,Put Him,Back in his Wheelchair.
"Come On,Let's find the Other Two," Louis ordered as He rolled,Towards the Other Grave Stones.
Louis and Scooby left the Mausoleum Ground,And,Headed to Re-Join Up with the Other Two.
At the Same Time.
The Graveyard Ghoul was,Running Away,as All The Grave Stones,Started Flying Out of the Ground,And,Into the Air,From the Gas Explosion.
They All started,Flying into the Air,All at Once,Like a Chain Reaction.
As They landed,In Different Places,Throughout the Cemetery.
Each Time,They landed Closer and Closer to the Graveyard Ghoul.
Scooby and Louis ran and rolled,Through the Explosion Minefield,Avoiding the Flying Gravestones,Too.
They were,Trying to find Velma.
"Come On,She's over There," Louis Said,Pointing to Where She was.
Velma sat,On the Ground,Away from the Minefield,Watching.
"He's getting Away," Velma notified as She sat Down,Watching Him,Running Away,And,Avoiding All the Gravestones,Like,He couldn't be Touched.
Suddenly.
Two Gravestones landed,Right,In Front of the Graveyard Ghoul,Before He could Escape.
The Graveyard Ghoul turned to his Left,To Try,And,Run,That Way.
But,Another,Landed,Right,In Front of Him.
Six More landed,On his Right,Behind Him,And,Even Diagonally,Leaving Him,With No Way Out.
He,Literally,Had Nowhere to Go.
"No,He's Trapped,"Velma announced as Her and Sheriff Stone saw Him,Trapped,By All the Grave Stones.
Scooby and Louis arrived,Just in Time,To see Him,Trapped.
But,The Graveyard Ghoul wasn't going to give Up.
He jumped,Over the Grave Stones,Freeing Himself from the Surrounding Graves.
The Four's Shoulders fell,as They're Smiles Disappeared.
And,They watched,In Disappointment as He began to get Away.
The Graveyard Ghoul Laughed,Wickedly,as He continued to avoid,Other Graves and Broken Pipe Parts,From the Busted Pipes.
By Moving,From Side to Side,Happily,as He continued to get Away.
He Chuckled as He avoided,Each and Every One of Them.
Or,At Least,He thought,He was going to avoid,All of Them.
That was.
Until.
A Giant Pipe landed,Over the Ghoul,Prohibiting Him,From,Even,Moving his Arms.
He Grunted and Grunted,To Try and Break Out of It.
But,He couldn't.
He was Stuck.
Scooby Smiled,Confidently,as He lifted his Foot,And,Kicked the Pipe,That was,Over the Ghoul.
Knocking the Graveyard Ghoul,Down to the Ground,Finally,Completely Trapping Him.
Velma and Sheriff Stone looked at the Trapped Graveyard Ghoul,With Shock.
They,Really,Thought,That,He was going to get Away,For Awhile.
But,He didn't.
Thanks to Scooby-Doo.
"Good Job,Scooby," Louis congratulated as He held his Hand Up,For a High Five.
"Thank You,Lou," Scooby thanked as He lifted his Foot,And,Did the High Five with his Foot,Instead of his Hand.
Louis Chuckled as He shook his Head,While,They were doing the High Five.
"Well,We got Him," Velma mentioned as She looked at the Trapped Graveyard Ghoul.
That was When.
The Calvary came,Running over to Them.
A Little Late,But,Then,Again,The Calvary was Always Late.
Fred,Shaggy,Daphne,Moder and Her Daughters came,Running over to The Four,To Check Up on Them,And,See What was going On.
"Louis,Velma,Scooby,We heard Explosions,Are You Okay?" Fred asked,as He came,Running to Them,With Concern.
"And,Like,What are You doing Here,Sheriff Stone?" Shaggy wondered as He saw Sheriff Stone,With Them.
"Catching the Right Guy," Sheriff Stone bragged as He put his Fists,On his Hips,Already taking All the Credit.
Shaggy glared at Him,With an Annoyed Look as He rolled his Eyes,In Frustration.
"Oh,What have You Done to Our Cemetery?" Moder Bjorkland questioned,Angrily,as She looked at Their,Now,Destroyed Cemetery.
"What We've Done,Is Captured the Graveyard Ghoul,Something the Others,Clearly,Forgot," Louis answered,Firmly.
"Yep,And,Let's See,Who He Really is," Velma stated as She walked,Over to the Trapped Graveyard Ghoul,And,Grasped his Mask.
Velma Grasped It,Tightly,as She pulled It Off.
Revealing It to be...
"Evallo,Just,Like,Velma Said," Louis informed,Confidently,Glad,That,Velma turned Out to be Right,as He crossed his Arms,Happily.
"Well,What do You Know? It Really was the Most Obvious Suspect,Who would have Guessed?" Shaggy commented as He saw,Evallo,In the Graveyard Ghoul Costume,And,Looked at Him,Shocked.
"Velma did," Scooby added,Happily,Giving Velma the Credit,That,She deserved.
Velma Smiled as She heard Scooby's Complement.
"Evallo was stealing the Natural Gas,From the Crystal Cove Gas Company," Velma Said,Calmly,as She stood,Next to Evallo.
"Yes,That is Right,I did It,I,Count Evallo Von Meanskrieg,Developed a Perfectly Evil Plan,And,Used My Position as Gravedigger,To cover My Activities,But,The Crowd,From the Mayor's Movie Night,Meant,Someone might notice,What I was Up To,I had to Scare Them Off,Thus,My Genius Evil Plan of the Graveyard Ghoul was Born,Unfortunately,the Flame-Broiling Grill was,Incredibly Dangerous,So Close,To My Gas Lines,I had to Stop It,Which led to My Capture,Sadly,I,The Evil Count Evallo Von Meanskrieg,Would have gotten Away with It,Too,If It wasn't for This Sheriff and his American-Style Barbecue," Evallo eludicated as He,Now,Sat,In the Back of the Sheriff's Car,With the Pipe,Still,Over Him,as He finished Explaining Everything.
Sheriff Stone slammed the Door to the Back Seat,Shut,as He turned to the Gang.
"You All saw That,Right? I caught the Right Guy,And,On Purpose," Sheriff Stone bragged to the Gang,as He got,In the Front Seat,Shut the Door,And,Started the Car.
"And,Of Course,He takes All the Credit," Velma complained as Her and the Gang watched Sheriff Stone drive Away,With his Sirens On.
"It's Okay,At Least,We Know,Otherwise," Shaggy reassured,as He put his Hand,On Velma's Shoulder.
Velma turned to Shaggy,And,Smiled.
At the Same Time.
Louis shut his Note Pad,And,Put It,In his Pocket.
As He let Out a Sigh of Relief.
"I,Finally,Did It,I,Finally,Saw the Connection,Using the Note Pad," Louis whispered,Happily,as He Smiled,Contentedly.
"See,I told You,You could do It,You can do Anything,You put your Mind To,Lou," Scooby reminded,as He laid his Head,On Louis's Shoulder,While,Watching Louis put his Note Pad Away.
"Thanks,SD,But,I think,That,I haven't heard the End,Of the I told You So's," Louis thanked,as He pointed Out,That,He,Unfortunately,Wasn't going to hear the End of It.
"Oh,You Bet,This is,Just the Beginning," Scooby notified,In a Teasing Voice,as He licked Louis's Cheek.
Louis softed Scooby's Head as Scooby laid his Head,On Louis's Shoulder.
While,Scooby and Louis were,On Their Own.
Fred was apologizing to Moder Bjorkland,For Accusing Her.
"I'm So Sorry,I thought,You were the Graveyard Ghoul," Fred apologized as He lowered his Head,In Disappointment,Feeling Bad,For,Accusing Her.
"No,Fred,Your Instincts were Right,The Bjorklands are involved,In This Mystery,They,Just,Don't Know It," Velma warned as She Smiled,And,Crossed Her Arms,Proudly.
"Huh," Fred responded,In Confusion.
"What?" Ms. Bjorkland replied,In Shock.
At City Hall.
The Next Day.
The Gang,Sheriff Stone,Count Evallo,The Bjorklands,The Townspeople and Mayor Nettles were All There,For a Special Announcement.
That,Mayor Nettles was Giving.
"And,So,It was brought to My Attention,That,While,Count Evallo was,Intentionally,Stealing,From the Gas Company,The Gas Company was,Um,Ahem,Accidentally Stealing from the Bjorkland Family,By Siphoning Gas,From the Huge Unknown Reserve,Under the Cemetery,And,So,Let Me Present You with This Check,For 30 Years Worth of Back Gas Profits," Mayor Nettles announced,as She Cleared Her Throat,In Embarassment,In the Middle of the Announcement,Before Finishing It,And,Giving the Large Check to Moder Bjorkland.
"Oh,This is Wonderful,Now,We can leave This Country,Goodbye Forever," Moder Bjorkland cheered as She looked at the Check,Announcing,That,They were,Now,Leaving.
As Her and her Daughters walked Down the Steps,With the Large Check,Fred stopped Them,By,Calling Them.
"Wait,But,I thought,You liked It,Here," Fred reminded,Stating,How He was Confused,And,Didn't want Them to leave.
"Oh,No,No,No,We were,Just,Here for the Money,Now,We can go,Back to the Old Country,And,Live like Queens," Ms. Bjorkland warned as She Explained,Happily,Why They came,There,And,There True Intentions,as The Four began to Walk Away.
"But," Fred tried to Say,So,They could Stay,But,She wouldn't let Him Speak.
"Thank You,Thank You,Crystal Cove,Bye Bye," Moder thanked as Her and Her Daughters walked,Out of Crystal Cove,With the Large Check,Leaving Them All Forever.
"Also,It seems,That,Count Evallo Von Meanskrieg has Diplomatic Immunity,You'll have to let Him Go,Sheriff," Mayor Nettles mentioned,Warning Sheriff Stone,That,They couldn't keep Him.
"What? Oh,Come On,I told You,This would Happen," Sheriff Stone lashed Out,Angrily,as He yelled at Velma,Furiously,Mad,That,He had to let Another One Go.
"Can't Say,You didn't Warn Me," Velma stated,Plainly.
Sheriff Stone took Out the Keys,And,Uncuffed Evallo.
The Minute,That,Evallo was Uncuffed.
He Laughed,Wickedly as He started Saying Stuff,Again.
"The Von Meanskrieg Family is the Most Evil Family,In All of Europe,You should see My Brothers,They're,Like,Just the Worst,So Evil,Anyway,I came to Crystal Cove to prove,How Truly Evil I am," Evallo explained,Talking about his Family,And,His Reasons for Coming to Crystal Cove.
"Wow,Why am I Not Surprised?" Louis commented,Quietly,In a Annoyed Tone.
"Now,Depart Me,So,I can live Out,My Days in Evil Luxury," Evallo ordered,as He Smiled,Happy,That,He was Free.
"That's It,I am,So,Never Arresting Anyone,Again," Sheriff Stone complained as He walked Evallo,To his Car,Whining the Whole Way.
"Um,Like,What,Just Happened?" Shaggy questioned,In Confusion.
"I have No Idea," Scooby replied as He watched Sheriff Stone,Walk Evallo to his Car.
"Hey,Shag,I never got a Chance,To Thank You for Saving My Life,At the Movie Night," Louis added,Mentioning It,So,He could,Thank Him.
"Look,Louis,You don't have to," Shaggy started to Say,Before Louis Interrupted,So,He could Finish.
"So,Thank You," Louis thanked,Nicely,as He hugged Shaggy's Arm.
Shaggy turned to Him,And,Smiled.
"No Problem," Shaggy answered,In a Happy Tone,as He hugged Louis Back.
Yeah,He,Still,Was Mad at Louis,But,For Now,He was,Just,Gonna Let It Go.
After All,Louis was,Actually,Thanking Him.
"Oh,Honestly,Who Cares What,Just Happened? I'm,Just Glad,To See,Those Bjorklands Go,Let Them take Their Gazillion Dollars,And,Leave,And,Their Chocolate," Daphne pointed Out,Angrily,as Her and Fred,Joined Up with the Rest of the Gang.
"Uh,Daph," Fred tried to Say,Trying to remind Her,That,She,Actually,Liked Chocolate.
"Let Them take All Their Chocolate,Wait,Leave the Chocolate," Daphne rephrased,Changing Her Mind,And,Actually,Wanting the Chocolate,as She ran Down the Stairs to go tell Them.
"Oh Dear," Scooby murmured as He watched Daphne,Run Down the Steps,After the Bjorklands.
"Maybe,We should have never Forced her,To Eat All That Chocolate," Louis suggested as Him and Scooby watched Her,Run,After Them,as They sat Side by Side.
"Please,Leave the Chocolate," Daphne begged,Loudly,as She ran to the Sign,To Try and Reason with Them.
Meanwhile.
At Mr. E's Headquarters.
Mr E had a Clothed Table set Up,In his Operations.
With a Candle,Two Wine Cups and a Carton of Grape Juice.
Mr. E poured the Grape Juice,Into his Own Glass.
And,Then,He poured,Some Grape Juice,In his Partner's Glass.
"I'm Glad,You Came,I wasn't Sure,You Would," Mr E complemented as He poured the Grape Juice,Into his Partner's Cup,Revealing It to be Professor Pericles.
"Of Course,Ricky,I'm Happy,That,You invited Me," Professor Pericles replied,as He Smiled,Confidently,While,Looking into his Own Glass.
"To a Future of Unimaginable Wealth," Mr E shouted as He raised his Glass,To the Sky.
"To the Treasure,For with It,We shall rule the World," Professor Pericles said as He raised his Glass.
As Both Boys drank,From Their Glasses.
"A Meeting of This Momentous Importance deserves Some Mood Music," Mr E stated as He lowered his Glass,And,Walked over to the Radio,Turning It On.
And,Of Course,It was,On Cassidy's Radio Station.
"Remember,All You Listeners Out There,Something Bad is going Down,In Crystal Cove,And,By Down,I mean,Underneath,Watch Out for Any Foul Play,Especially,Of the Feather Kind," Cassidy explained,As She Explained to Everyone,That,Was Listening in On her Station.
Pericles reached for the Radio,And,Turned It Off.
Mr. E had a Look of Shock,At First,Wondering What She was talking About.
But,Now,He knew,What She was talking About.
And,So did,Pericles.
And,They did not like It,One Bit.
"Ahh,Cassidy,If We are to Continue,She will need to be Silenced...Forever," Pericles warned,Informing Ricky,That,They were going to have to get Rid of Her.
"Agreed,Forever," Mr E agreed as He picked Up Glass.
Pericles picked his Up,Too.
As They Both did a Toast,Clinking Their Glasses Together,Putting Their Game Faces On.
This was It.
They were,No Longer going to Play Nice.
Their Real Work had,Just Begun.
