Benny, Leo, and Johnny's Adventures on Zombie Island

Chapter 1
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Daphne finished showing the clip. She is in a talk show.

"And that's how we solved the case of the Moat Monster," said Daphne. "One of our most frightening mysteries. And we thanked Benny the Beast, Leo Lionheart, Johnny the Lion, and Rae the Lioness for helping us solve the case."

The audience applauded for Daphne's success. Back at Manhattan, the gang are watching the show.

"Ooh," said the talk show host. "Stories like that always give me the heebie-jeebies. Ehh! No wonder you became a reporter. That moat monster almost sliced you up like a pepperoni pizza. Then we wouldn't have 'Coast to Coast with Daphne Blake', your very successful syndicated series on Americana. Going on a second season, I might add. I never miss it!"

"Thanks, Chris," said Daphne. "You know, the real reason I changed jobs because the monsters and ghosts always turn out to be bad guys in a mask."

"Got a little boring, eh?"

"No kidding. In fact, that's why the gang went their separate ways, except for Fred and me."

"She means Fred Jones, who is now a producer and one-man crew of Daphne's show. How about getting a shot of Freddie, guys?"

The talk show host points the cameraman towards Fred, who is standing backstage. The spotlight appears and shows Fred wearing a new style of clothes.

"Is he cute or what?"

"Wow," spoke Johnny. "Fred got a huge wardrobe change."

"For a producer," said Panthy. "He's bound to wear something like that."

"So," said the host. "What's coming up for the new season?"

"A new series of segments called 'Haunted America'," Daphne explained.

"Sort of a 'Ghost to Ghost with Daphne Blake'."

"Right. But this time, I intended to find REAL haunted houses for my viewers."

"Gee, it's too bad the rest of the gang won't be along for the ride."

"Yeah," Daphne sighed sadly. "I really miss them."

Fred snapped his fingers as a light bulb came to his head.

Meanwhile, Shaggy and Scooby now work at the airport as custom officers. They are watching Daphne on the big television screens.

"Yeah," said Shaggy. "Like, we really miss you too, Daphne."

"Reah," said Scooby, wiping away his tear with his tail.

"DON'T GO AWAY. WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH DAPHNE BLAKE."

"Hey, you two!" shouted Shaggy and Scooby's boss. "Get back to work!"

"Like," said Scooby, saluting like a soldier. "We're on it, boss-man-sir."

"Ruh-huh."

Shaggy and Scooby returned to their positions, going on their routine duty, inspecting the baggage claim area. Scooby sniffed all over the area until finally, he smelled something. He posed like a pointer when he points out his own finger.

"Catch something, Scoob?" asked Shaggy.

"Reah," Scooby replied as he comes near a red suitcase. "Reah, reah."

Shaggy opens the suitcase and Scooby begins sniffing. He comes out with a pair of socks on his nose. He lets out a sneeze and the socks flew to Shaggy's face.

"No offense, buddy," said Shaggy. "But I think your nose might be losing its touch."

"Ruh-uh."

Scooby digs out a entire suitcase, clothes fly all over the place, even a pair of boxers flew to Shaggy. Finally, Scooby uncovers a round of cheese.

"Pretty sneaky, but they can't fool your nose."

"Rhat's right."

"Like, no one brings contraband food into our country with us on the job."

"Reah."

"Like, let's go check it in, Scoob."

Shaggy and Scooby enter the airport's custom storage room, where they keep all the contraband food in place. As they enter, they are astounded as they are surrounded by various fruits, meats, and cheeses. Shaggy laughs hysterically.

"Like, is this the jackpot of jobs or what?!" Shaggy exclaimed excitedly, slurping his tongue.

"Re-he-he-he-he!" Scooby laughed, also slurping his tongue. "Reah!"

On the other side of town, Velma owns a bookstore called "Dinkley's Mystery Book Store". However, Velma wasn't too enthusiast with her new job. Right now, she is on the phone with the customer.

"Uh-huh," Velma sighed, speaking monotonously. "Yes, we do carry the Hair-Raisers series. Number 23, Vampire Village. Got it. Number 24, Creepy Clown Town. Got it. Number 25, Menace at Mummy Manor. Got it. Yes, I'll hold them 'til Tuesday. Two weeks 'til Tuesday? Oh, yeah, that's fine. Bye."

Velma hangs up the phone and places it on top of a huge stack of books. She carries them heavily towards her desk. She watches Daphne on the little television, concluding her television appearance.

"Solving mysteries was a lot more fun than selling them," said Velma. Suddenly the phone rings and she answers. "Mystery Book Shop. Freddie?! Jinkies! Sounds great! Count me in."

Meanwhile, back at the airport, the boss enters the custom storage room, only to find Scooby and Shaggy at the corner of the room, being all fat from eating the food.

"Like, hi, boss!" Shaggy greeted.

"You-You--" the boss stammered. "You ate all the contraband!"

Scooby burps.

"Rexcuse me," said Scooby. "Re-he-he-he-he!"

"Like, untrue, boss," said Shaggy. "We didn't eat it all. There's still a couple of Gorgonzolas left. Help yourself."

"You're a couple of Gorgonzolas!" the boss shouted. "You're fired!" He left the room by slamming the door hard.

"Geez!, Like, what a grouch. Looks like we're unemployed again, old pal."

"Reah," said Scooby, starting to cry. "Runemployed." He finally starts to cry and blows his nose with the handkerchief around his neck.

"Like, take it easy, buddy," said Shaggy. "Something will turn up. So what if it's, like, the greatest gig ever." He started to cry. "Like, so what if we starve, turned to skin and bones?"

Scooby and Shaggy sobbed for a long moment until the phone rings. They stopped crying as Shaggy answers.

"Like, hello? Freddie! Zoinks! We just caught you on the tube! Busy? Nah! Scooby and I were thinking of taking some time off."

"Reah, reah!"

A week later, Daphne is prepared for her next trip. She awaits for Fred outside of her house. Fred finally pulls up with the van, Daphne expressing a shrug.

"Sorry, I'm late, Daph," said Fred, exiting the van. "The traffic was murder." He help gather Daphne's luggage. "This, uh, this everything?"

"Uh-huh," said Daphne.

"Got the maps?"

"Yeah."

"Are you sure you haven't forgotten anything?"

"Fred," Daphne scoffed. "What is with you? Yes, I'm sure i'm sure."

"Well then..." Fred opens the door and Shaggy, Velma, and Scooby pop out, spraying confetti and blowing horns.

"SURPRISE! Happy Birthday, Daphne!"

"Gosh!" Daphne laughed. "It's great to see you all!"

Another van pulls up and Benny, Leo, Johnny, and Rae comes out and greeted everyone.
