(3rd) POV:

Daphne and Dean continue to try and move the handle, but no matter how much strength they put into it, the handle just wouldn't budge. Meanwhile, Zarkos sneaks up from behind Daphne.

(cue the theme song and listen to it as many times as you want)

"Senorita," Zarkos says from behind Daphne.

"Daphne, look out!" Dean exclaims.

Zarkos grabs Daphne by the throat and tries to punch her, but Daphne dodges just in time. Then she tries to kick him, but Zarkos grabs her leg. Dean then tries to punch the wrestler, but his fist gets caught, giving Daphne the opening she needed to kick Zarkos in the face, resulting in him to let go of Dean's fist, as well as being knocked a few feet away from them.

"Nice moves," Dean compliments.

"Thanks," she says.

As for (Y/N) and Scooby, they continue to run for their lives, along with Shaggy and (F/A/N).

"Yield to my puppy power!" Scrappy exclaims, knocking some more monsters out of his way.

"We gotta tip over the protoplasm vat," Velma points out, her, Sam and Fred getting back on their feet from being knocked to the ground by Scrappy earlier.

"How?" Fred asks.

"The pincer," Sam says, realizing that it's their only chance to save everyone, including their friends. "Come on."

They don't get far, however, when two henchmen arrive and grab Velma, preventing her from going anywhere.

Fred then grabs one of the pulleys. "You all need to step back, because Fredster's got his groove on," he says, swinging the pulley over his shoulder as more henchmen arrive.

Fred then uses the pulley to smack some of the henchmen unconscious, while Sam helps, following Fred's example with one the pulleys. As for Dean and Daphne, they continue to fight Zarkos, helping each other when need be. Zarkos tried to kick Dean, but he dodges the attack, which resulted in the wrestler to grab Daphne instead. She then uses the heal on her boot to kick Zarkos in the head, causing the wrestler to swing Daphne's body over his shoulder.

Dean tries to kick Zarkos, but ends up being grabbed and punched in the stomach, causing Dean to collapse to his knees, as he clutches his stomach in pain. Zarkos then climbs onto a metal pole, ready to do a body slam on Daphne.

"Daphne! Heads-up!" Dean exclaims, making Daphne look up to see what's going on.

Thanks to Dean's warning, Daphne rolls her body out of the way, just in time for Zarkos to hurt himself, and clutch his elbow in pain.

"Got you! You look so much bigger on TV," Scrappy says, grabbing Scooby.

Scooby then grabs Scrappy's nose hair, making the insane monster-puppy-dog to let go of him. Scrappy cries in pain, trying to shake Scooby off of him. But when Scooby was able to pull out some nose hairs, he lands on all fours. Scrappy then clutches his nose in pain, and sneezes, making Scooby get covered in snot.

Scooby gags, not pleased with being sneezed on. "Raggy!" he screams.

Realizing that Scooby needs help, Shaggy, (Y/N) and (F/A/N) rush to save their friend.

"Scoob!" Shaggy exclaims.

"Hang on, we're coming!" (Y/N) exclaims.

They all jump into a nearby pit. While doing so, Shaggy grabs Scooby's tail, dragging him into the pit as well. And just in time, too.

"You're done!" Scrappy yells, slamming his fist onto where Scooby once was.

As for Fred and Sam, they have no trouble with their teamwork, as they use the pulleys to smack all of the henchmen unconscious. Dean and Daphne have no trouble with their teamwork either. When Zarkos aims a kick at Dean, Dean was able to dodge it, causing Zarkos' leg to get stuck in the wooden wall of a shed. Dean then slams the door on Zarkos, causing the glass window to smash into pieces. Daphne then tries to smack Zarkos with her fist, but Zarkos catches it, and frees himself.

"Come back here, you lazy beatnik!" Scrappy yells, not happy with the situation.

As for (Y/N), (F/A/N), Shaggy and Scooby, they back up, going deeper into the pit, so that Scrappy won't reach any of them. Then all of a sudden, Mary Jane and another monster sneak up behind the four of them.

"Shaggy," Mary Jane says.

At first, Shaggy is happy, until Mary Jane grabs him and Scooby by the throat. The other monster does the same to (Y/N) and (F/A/N), nearly choking them. The two monsters then pin all four of them against the wall.

"Crud," Shaggy says, realizing his mistake.

"Told you so," (Y/N), (F/A/N) and Scooby in sync, proving that they were right about Mary Jane.

(Y/N)'s POV:

Mary Jane then breathes out some green gas, making Shaggy let out a dream-like sigh. "Like, wow!" he says with a smile.

Oh, brother.

"Give me the boy and the dog!" Scrappy orders.

When both monsters do what he orders, Scrappy lets out an evil laugh as he grabs me and Scooby.

"Scrappy, down! Sit! Bad Scrappy!" Scooby exclaims.

Scooby then flicks Scrappy's nose, kind of like what Fred did to him on the plane. However, all it resulted in was Scrappy screaming at us, not happy that Scooby did that to him.

"Let's finish these two! Now!" Scrappy yells, holding me up, while N' Goo Tauna moves the pincer to grab my protoplasm again.

"Oh-no, not again!" I exclaim, trying my best to break free from Scrappy's grip, but he's too strong.

Seeing the pincer get closer to me, I try to push it away as best as I can.

Dammit! Dean, Daphne, hurry up! Because help would be a really good time right now!

(3rd) POV:

During the fight, Zarkos eventually grabs Daphne in a backbreaking position, while Dean continues to clutch his stomach in pain, due to the painful blow he got from Zarkos earlier.

"Captured again, senorita?" Zarkos asks.

"Not this time!" Daphne exclaims, grabbing Zarkos' hand, and giving it a hard bite.

Zarkos screams in pain, and lets go of Daphne. When she gets up, Daphne then does a kick-flip, making a direct hit with Zarkos' head. She then gives him another kick, making Zarkos lose his balance, resulting in him to hold onto the air-vents.

"Now who's the damsel in distress?" Daphne asks.

"Me?" Zarkos as weakly.

"Straight up," she says, grabbing a rope to do a front flip, and then kicks Zarkos, making him fall through the air vents, as well as opening them up.

(Y/N)'s POV:

I'm not sure what happened up there, but we all look up to see Zarkos falling through the air vents, landing right onto the vat, causing it to tip over. Thanks to that, all of the protoplasm spills out, free to return to their bodies, which causes all of the monsters to appear. I can even see Dean and Daphne release the disco skull.

Just like we planned, the light coming through the air vents reflects off of the skull, hitting all of the monsters, making them explode. But we aren't done yet. We still have to take care of Scrappy. When Fred knocks out N' Goo Tauna with a pulley, Scrappy marches to him, Velma and Sam.

"Mystery Inc., this ain't over! Not by a long shot!" Scrappy yells. Fred, Velma and Sam try to run, but Scrappy takes huge jumps, getting closer to my friends. "I'll rock you and sock you, and crush you like--"

Before he can finish, the pincer taps his shoulder, making Scrappy turn around to see who it is.

"Like, dude?" Shaggy asks, using the pincer.

"What?" Scrappy asks angrily.

"You're a bad puppy!" Shaggy exclaims, aiming the pincer for the Daemon Ritus.

Once the Daemon Ritus is removed from Scrappy's chest, all of the protoplasm he absorbed is set free, causing him to shrink back to his normal size, as well let go of me and Scooby. Once I get back on my feet, I can't help but smile, glad to know that me and all of my friends have once again won another victory.

"Well, well, look what we got here. So, what you plan to do now, Scrappy?" I ask, with my arms crossed, feeling more confident in myself, now that he's back to his normal size. "Can't do much without the Daemon Ritus, can you?"

"Come on, I can still take you. Put them up, you stupid human and mangy mutt. I'll--" before he can finish, Scooby smacks Scrappy to the wall with just his paw. Just goes to show that he can't cause anyone any more harm. "Is that all you got?"

Not long after, everyone in the cave starts to cheer, glad to have been saved and be back in their bodies. Meanwhile, I look for Velma, which doesn't take long to notice that orange sweater of hers.

"Velma!" I exclaim with joy, lifting her up in air, and then setting her down. "You okay?"

"Yeah. But that's what I should be asking you. Are you alright? I mean, you nearly had your protoplasm absorbed."

"Well, I'm not going to lie, it did feel weird being a floating head. And Fred wasn't kidding when he said it's not easy to steer. But other than that, I'm actually okay," I say. I then remember something important, something that I need to ask Velma. "Hey, Velma?"

"Yes?" she asks.

"Would it be alright if I try something?" I ask.

"I don't see why not," she says.

Hearing that makes me let out a sigh of relief, and then do something I never thought I'd ever get the chance to do ever again. I kiss Velma, and after a minute or two, she kisses back. I'm not sure how long we were like that, but once we break apart, we continue to look into each other's eyes. I even stroke her chin a little.

"You're fogging up my glasses," she says with a smile.

She then punches me in the chest. It did hurt, but I can tell that was Velma's way of showing that she's happy, especially when she lets out a few giggles.

I had forgotten how strong she can be sometimes.

But even so, regardless of her faults, I still like her no matter what. Later, we found out from Shaggy that the real Mr. Mondevarious was actually placed in a hole, imprisoned, for two whole years, when Scrappy decided to take over. And now that he's free, Mr. Mondevarious didn't waste any time on calling the police, so that Scrappy and the people who willingly helped him in his plans could be taken to jail. Not only did everyone on the island start to cheer for me and all of my friends for saving them, but some news reporters arrive, while the police officers take Scrappy and his helpers to the police chopper.

"Fred, can you tell us how you solved the case?" a news reporter asks, holding out a mic.

"Yes. Well, it all started when I was giving a speech on my new book and..." Fred says, until he sees the sad look on Velma's face, making him realize that he needs to share some of the credit with the rest of us, especially since we all did this as a team. "And I really think the Velmster should take it from here."

Hearing Fred say that, Velma's eyes widen in shock, not expecting that to happen. Me and the others all reassure her that it's okay for her to answer some questions, and have a little bit of the spotlight to herself.

"Go on," I say, placing a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

Velma then smiles, and takes a deep breath before speaking. "Through the combined intuitive powers of Mystery Inc. we've discovered that the real villain behind this mystery is, in fact, Scrappy Cornelius Doo, who sadly was corrupted by the power of the Daemon Ritus," she says.

"Oh, get over it! So, I got a little cranky!" Scrappy exclaims from his dog cage, as the police put him in the chopper.

"Geez, Scraps. No reason to freak out like a jerk and try to kill all of humanity," Shaggy says, making some of us nod our heads in agreement.

"I would've gotten away with it, too, if not for you meddling sons of--" Scrappy says, getting cut off by having the chopper's door closed on him.

"Now that Mystery Inc. is back together, do you have any comments on the Mud Bog Ghoul who's been terrorizing London?" the news reporter asks.

"Whatever the case, Mystery Inc. will be there," Fred says, holding his hand out.

"Solving mysteries, man," Shaggy says, placing his hand on top of Fred's.

"Always being there for each other," I say, placing my hand on top of theirs.

"Having each other's backs," (F/A/N) says, placing in his/her own hand.

"Righting wrongs," says Daphne.

"Helping people," says Dean.

"Bringing justice to criminals," says Sam.

"Looking for clues and kicking butt," Velma says, her and Scooby being the last ones to put their hands in.

We all then raise our hands in the air, while everyone claps and cheers for us. There's also more good news. Not only is Mystery Inc. back together, but Sam and Dean are also new members. I have the feeling things are going to get a lot more interesting with those two around.

Also, as thanks for saving everyone, Mr. Mondevarious wanted to thank us by letting me and all of my friends stay for free on Spooky Island for the whole week! Hearing that made Shaggy and Scooby excited, especially since they can finally eat to their hearts content. Sam, Dean, (F/A/N) and I even got invited to join them.

"How groovy is this, man?" Shaggy asks. "Spooky Island finally came through with its all-you-can-eat deal. And there's nobody I'd rather gorge myself with than you, Scooby-Doo."

"My best friend," Scooby says.

"You're my best friend, buddy," says Shaggy. "You're beautiful like a beautiful piece of pizza."

"Well, I don't know about you guys, but I'm ready to dig in," Dean says, ready to eat his burger and the rest of his food.

"Well, can't say I have the right to blame you, especially after everything that happened," I admit.

"Yeah. It's nice to finally relax, now that those creatures are gone," Sam says, taking a bite of his chicken salad.

"You said it," (F/A/N) says, nodding his/her head in agreement.

We then start to eat our food. However, when Shaggy takes a bite of a pizza slice, with a pepper, he soon spits it out, making Scooby laugh.

"Zoinks! Them peppers is, like, hot," Shaggy says.

"Wimp," Scooby and Dean say in sync.

"Wimp? You two think you can handle it? Why don't you put your mouths where your mouths are?" Shaggy asks, handing both Scooby and Dean a jar of peppers.

I just felt a chill go up my spine, saying that this isn't going to be good.

"You're on," Dean says, taking the challenge.

"Rokay," Scooby says.

And with that, it was down the hatch. Scooby and Dean both ate the peppers. At first, they were okay. But then they started to fan themselves like crazy.

"Uh, Dean?" Sam asks, wondering if his brother is really okay or not from those peppers.

"Scooby-Doo, you feeling okay?" Shaggy asks.

"Water! Water! Give me some water!" Dean yells frantically, while steam comes from Scooby's ears.

Sam and I both hand Dean our own water, while Scooby grabs a pitcher from a nearby waitress. They both drink their water like there's no tomorrow. However, it wasn't enough for Scooby, because he grabs a tray, fanning his mouth, and then smacks his head with it.

"Here you go, dude," Shaggy says, grabbing the ketchup, and then grabs Scooby's tongue, squeezing some ketchup to help cool it down. Once Shaggy lets go, Scooby calms down. Dean does too, after drinking his fourth glass of water. "Like, how'd that taste, man?"

"Delicious," Scooby says.

"It was definitely something," says Dean.

"Well, garcon, let's get three more," Shaggy says, grabbing more pepper jars for him, Scooby and Dean.

"This isn't going to end well," I say, a little worried about them.

"Nope," says Sam.

"Oh, boy. I'll go get us water. A LOT of water," (F/A/N) says, getting out of his/her seat.

After opening the jars, Shaggy, Scooby and Dean clink their pepper jars together as though they're having a toast.

"On the count of three," Shaggy says.

"One, two, three!" Dean, Scooby and Shaggy exclaim, all three of them eating every single pepper from their jars.

They then start to scream in agony. Sam and I both let out a sigh, knowing that it wouldn't end well for them.

Yep, those are my friends alright. And I wouldn't trade them for anything else.
