Chapter 2: Chapter 2

Fire blaze in the once peaceful town of Coolsville, after Mystery Inc., solved their most recent mystery. Buildings are destroyed and/or leveled to the ground. The screams and chaos that once filled the streets of people running and tripping over each other to escape the threats at hand are now empty and as silent as a desert. The only sounds coming from this demolished town are the crackling of the fire and the plea of the last helpless victim on his knees surrounded by the destructors. 

"PLEASE!!!" the helpless man cries to the people. His eye darting at all six of his captors forming a circle around him. Despite the dim light from the lit fires, their features are hidden by the total darkness of the night. However, due to the body shape of the silhouettes, he can tell all six are women. "PLEASE! I'M TELLING THE TRUTH!"

One of them crosses her arms and sighs. "He's not gonna talk, Eir. Let's just turn him into a Zumbana and get-" 

"NOOOOO!!!" the helpless man's eyes nearly shot out of the sockets. And he walks to the one who he interrupted still on his knees, hands clasped together in a prayer position. "PLEASE DON'T TURN ME INTO ONE OF THOSE THINGS!! Listen. Li-Listen, ok? I honestly don't know where they are. They-"

"Liar!" Another one barks and kicks him on his back. "You're a police officer. They'd be sure to tell you any information about their next move. I know they would've given you a card or something."

The man shakes his head, lifting himself back onto his knees. "I'm-I'm sorry, but they haven't. They don't give out cards or stay in one place for long. Wherever there's a mystery to solve that's where they go."

Five female silhouettes' heads all turn to the one standing in front of the man. 

Eir moves her full lips on one side of her gorgeous face, tapping her foot on the pavement. "Hmmm. This is going nowhere."

"So what do we do with him?" the woman next to Eir asks.

"Turn him into a Zumbana, of course. Maybe this pathetic man will be more useful then. Mystery Inc. won't get away with what they did."

"Like, how did you do that?!"

"It's easy. Scratch that, once you get better balance it'll be easy. I'll demonstrate again, okay, so take a step forward at a 45-degree angle, and BAM!" Velma lifts her rear leg and kicks the bag with tremendous power "don't forget to pivot your foot also the moment the balls of your foot hit the ground you deliver another kick immediately." She hugs the bag until it stopped swaying, then she extends her left hand to gauge the distance "Alright. I'm going to show you again then you try, okay?"

Shaggy gives her a thumbs up. "You got it, Velma."

She touches the heavy bag, gauging the distance again "Okay. Here goes." Just as she explained to her boyfriend, Velma executed the fast and powerful quick two-roundhouse kicks. 

"Zionks! That was so rad, haha. Like, also I wanted to tell you when Fred and I came back, those leggings are looking good on you. But didn't want to interrupt your training with Daphne."

She grins with her cheeks tinted red. "Thanks, Shaggy. You're looking good too. I see you bought a pair of muay Thai shorts, finally. Not to mention you're getting more fit." He's still scrawny but he has developed four-pack abs." Going to muay Thai practice seems to be helping."

He's wearing green muay Thai shorts with no shirt. "Like, totally, babe. I will become the greatest muay Thai fighter ever. Second to you of course."

"Ruh uh. Ru will be after re Raggy." 

Scooby joined the couple over to the heavy bags, stands on their hind legs, and embraces Shaggy and Velma. The talking dog has a mongkhun placed on his head, his long ears protruding out the sides with all four paws wrapped in white hand wraps. 

"Hey, Scoob! Like, I'm going to be the second best, not you."

"Ro, I ram."

"No, me."

"Re."

"No, me."

"I have a better idea. How about you both train and see who's better." Velma knows they would have continued forever if she didn't stop them. In hearing that, both Shaggy and Scooby fist bumps, or maybe fist-paw bump is more appropriate, before Scooby stands in front of a heavy bag, in an excellent Muay Thai stance.

"Like, you're on, Scoob." Shaggy says, getting into the stance as well. "You won't beat me to mastering the vicious move of double kicks."

"Res. I rill."

"Like, no you won't."

"Res, I rill."

"No."

"Res."

"No."

"Res."

"No."

"Re-"

"How about you go first, Shaggy." Velma interrupts again. This type of bickering between the two happens so often that it's not even irritable to her anymore. " Now since you're tall, unlike me, you don't have to take a step forward to kick, or else you'll just connect with your knee. So just follow what I told you. Maintaining balance is very important."

Velma continues to train both Shaggy and Scooby for about an hour maybe more. At the beginning of their competition, Scooby was the first to have a better form, his arms were placed correctly, and would twist his waist and pivot on his paw, he'd forget to take a step forward, and instead of hitting the heavy bag with his leg, hed painfully connects with his paw. Whereas Shaggy his form was terrible, his kicking leg would be too wide and he wouldn't twist his hip or swing his arm back completely weakening the power of the kick. 

However, close to the end of the training session, Velma noticed once Scooby started to gauge his distance before rushing to do the kicks, Shaggy form improved. 

"Ok. I think that's enough for today."

"I will second that, Velma." Fred, wearing his iconic white sweater over a blue shirt and also wears blue pants. Not the forget, of course, his trademark accessory, the orange ascot says holding the sliding door open until Daphne steps out" Something happened in Coolsville."

"Really? What was it?"

"The place has been destroyed. It looks like a tornado crashed through it. But strangely enough, there weren't any casualties. At least there wasn't any reported."

"Was it a tornado?" Velma can feel that adrenaline building up. This may be it. The day she has been waiting for almost a month. 

"No," Daphne says. Her eyebrows wrinkled with her hands hugging each other. "And the time backup arrived the entire place was deserted. No person in sight."

Velma mimics the thinking statue. "Strange."

Shaggy whimpers. "Oh no, Scoob. I guess our free time is over. Back to facing monsters."

Scooby's ears lower with watery eyes, always whimpers. "Ri guess so."

"Alright, everyone. The vacation is over. Looks like we got another mystery on our hands."
