Scooby Doo and the Grimwood Girls
- Thread starter DhampyrX2
- Start date
Thanksgiving is in november, right? So that's six, seven months to occupy. Now... Let's think about what events we want to include in any adventures that will be laid out for Shags and Scoob. I guess a meeting with the other two girls who are out in the world are bound, both for foreshadowing and giving clues for Velma and the others to stay on the trail. Now, Phanny is in Minnesota and Winnie in Florida, right? Like, are there any notable adventures of the gang which took place around those parts that we can shift in time? Or, at least if we want to include a X-Over with Danny Phantom, we can make up brand new ones.
Other events that we should include?
Other events that we should include?
Or something like this...
------
Daphne frowned as Velma did her computer thing. Not from Velma calling her a genius, Daphne didn't think herself an overly proud person, but she liked the few times people praised her for her mind instead of just her really good looks.
No, while she hadn't said anything out loud, meeting Sibella set something off in her mind. Not a warning like it had Velma, but like she was trying to remember something on the edge of her mind, something from after the gangs break.
She and Freddie had a fight and split for a while and while he had gone to work for his uncle Eddie for a while at the National Exaggerator, she had stayed with Shaggy. They had met a mister...Vincent Price? Yeah, that sounded right. The man had hired them to run about a dozen world wide errands, but the odd thing was that Daphne's memory of the whole time was foggy.
Before, she had never really thought about it, but now? After Zombies, cat creatures and real, live (or, dead, rather) ghosts, she was wondering.
What had happened?

I didn't say Shaggy did, I meant to imply Vincent Van Ghoul messed it up, maybe he trusted Shaggy and Scooby more (or thought people were more likely to believe Daphne).
As for Googie, I don't know about canon, but it was mentioned by Dhampyr for this story-
It was sorta implied Phanty might have done it.

Also, I looked something up. Apparently Flim-Flam and Scrappy are <a href='http://scoobydoo.wikia.com/wiki/Crystal_Cove_Spook_Museum#Scooby-Doo.21_Mystery_Incorporated' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>mentioned in Mystery Incorperated</a>. Flim-Flam is doing 25 years in jail and all they said about Scrappy is they swore to never speak of him again.

More specifically, Flim Flam was a con artist (said by Daphne herself). Of course, MI is actually supposed to be an alternate continuity...
And honestly, I'd like to see a Scooby Doo (Or at least Shaggy and Scooby) crossover with Danny Phantom on this premise.
As for adventures, well there are a few What's new Scooby Doo adventures that I THINK took place around that general area, and I don't think its said where Uncle Albert's mansion of Phibe's bases are supposed to be in Get a Clue, which can also be a perfect excuse to reandevous with the girls a bit, as the rest of the gang is still solving mysteries while Shaggy and Scooby are stopping Phibes (and yes, this is shown at one point, two of Phibe's agents infiltrate a millitary base that the rest of the gang is investigating for the mystery of "Invisible Men". At the same time, Shaggy and Scooby are keeping the whole super-villian fighting thing a secret, both to not get the others involved, and to keep a secret secret.

I don't think that's such a good idea, I don't remember a single instance in which Daphne ever saw Shaggy as anything more than a friend. Let's keep it like that. There's no reason that every woman has to fall for the main character in stories like this. I find that too many possible love interests can actually bog the story down and make it less enjoyable.
This. I figure Daphne sees Shaggy almost like a little brother (mostly because he is so willing to defer to most people that it's hard to see him as a big brother.) That may be why it was so easy for her to travel with him during their adventures together in 13 Ghosts and the other adventures. Simply put, there was no pressure because she just doesn't see him that way. She's always been attracted to Freddie so when she's mad at Freddie her staying with Shaggy works for everyone because Shaggy is safe.
Velma is a little more complicated. For one she has shown at least some attraction to Shaggy in the more recent cartoons but she also has that "big sister" vibe with him. She also has a little sister that IIRC has a huge crush on Shaggy that she is NOT happy about. A little sister that is obsessed with magic and is training to be a stage magician. Now picture her reation is Sibella or Winnie ever releal Ms Grimwood's suspiscions about Shaggy.
Sally/Thorn at this point is ridiculously grateful to all of the gang for what they have done. Ironically, she was going to overlook Shaggy the way many people tend to until Sibella made the connection between the man in her letters and the Shaggy that Thorn met. Now she's re-examining everything. Whether it will stay respect and gratitude or develop into more remains up in the air. Although the fact that her cousin already wants him would make it awkward for Thorn to make a move. (Which is ironic given that Sibella would rather see Shaggy with Thorn or one of the Mystery Inc girls than with someone like Googie.)
Now, as to how to add the alien girl? Simple. Neither Sibella nor Sally are going to win over Shaggy and run off with him in the three or four days Sibella is going to still be in Oakhaven. The whole Alien Invaders movie can take place as it did originally. Our only issue would be getting Crystal to show up later. And really, given the unusual nature of Grimwood's students, having an alien girl or two on the roster isn't out of the question. Perhaps Crystal will be sent to investigate the school?
I would be tempted to have one of the other Hex Girls at least start flirting with Shaggy for comic value, but their personalities aren't nearly as fleshed out in my head. I do know Luna and Dusk are both humans (and Luna's father was a dentist that fashioned their fangs for them professionally in canon.) The blonde one, Dusk was stalked to be made into "Dracula's" bride during music video shoot at the historic Castle Dracula, Fortescu Castle. I don't remember enough to remember if the villian there was a guy in a mask although I'm pretty sure it was. Of course given how Dracula would react to someone harassing one of Sally's friends using his name, I don't see that going over well. He's in enough trouble with Sibella already.
Still, I could see Dusk trying to cozy up to Shaggy without realizing he has anything to do with the supernatural himself (and to the irrtation of the others metntioned.)

Forget I said anything about Daphne, doesn't really matter at this point since I'm digging Sibella and the alien chick. I'd say keep the alien clean of the monster acedemy, not every supernatural thing has to be related to it you know. Perhaps she's on vacation after her assignment and decided to pay some earthlings a little visit.
So, here's my contribution. Well, half of it. Going to post more later when I'm not distracted. Or, as everything else, it's open for everyone to continue. Enjoy!
"Cheers to us!"
"Hooray Hex Girls!"
"Like, congratulations, girls!" The clear noises of the glass jugs as they were brought together again and again in rapid succession filled the room, signaling the official beginning of the party, even if the music had been playing and the food and beverages had been rapidly, RAPIDLY disappearing for a while. In a few seconds they were all almost simultaneously brought back on the table as the alcoholic contents disappeared inside the merry group's mouth.
"We got a contract! We got a big contract!" Luna shouted out loud as she hugged the other two members of the band. "Thank you, guys! How can we ever repay you?!"
"Hey, it wasn't much. I just made a phone call." Daphne dismissed the praise with a wave of her right hand. One never really left show-business, after all. "My friend doesn't do charity. You got that contract because he liked your music, that's all."
"Still... Even if we had to face a hag's ghost hellbent on world destruction... Am I glad we met you, Mystery Inc.." Thorn admitted, cheeks warming because of the alcohol. Sibella chuckled. Thorn looked like she was on the verge of tears. She really was happy. "I mean... Ahh, my eyes!"
"Yoinks! Like, don't cry, Thorn!"
"Reah! Don't... Aaaaroow!" The girl sniffled a bit and turned around... Only to suddenly burst out laughing at the sight of Shaggy 'accidentally' biting onto Scooby's tail which he had stuck between two slices of bread. As the dog howled in pain and the tall man apologized, he also sent a look in Sibella's direction. She got the hint.
"Shaggy is right, Thorn. It's a time of celebration. So, just drink and laugh till you're satisfied! You don't want to give the guys this kind of send-off, right?" The purple haire girl said as she patted her cousin on her back, reminding her that they were all leaving Oakhaven the next day, each for their own reasons.
"Right..." Thorn admitted and with a grin raised her half empty jug again and slammed a foot on the table as she stood. "We're gonna party till dawn! To the Hex Girls and Mystery Inc.!"
"To us!" In another joined cheer, the under re-construction but lively puritan village exploded in cheerfullness. Night was young, drinks were on Jack...
-Break-
"Hmmm... Jiiiinkieees..." But not everyone could hold their alcohol. At the end of the party which came around 3am instead of dawn as previously declared, most of the people present were passed out cold, leaving Fred, Thorn and Dusk real tipsy, Velma on the edge of consciousness and Scooby, Shaggy and Sibella unaffected even if they knew better than to show it openly.
"I... I think we should... Call it a night... Mmmh..." Fred declared as he hoisted Daphne on his back, arms around his shoulders and Velma in his arms, awkwardly crossing the few meters to the mystery machine. "Shaggy, Scooby... You coming too?"
"Like, later, Fred. We'll stick around to take care of the cleaning up." The two gluttons grinned at each other as they observed all the leftover food. "But, are you sure you're in, like, any condition to drive?"
"No, I'm not... That's why I'm not driving." Shaggy blinked before he threw some covers over Velma and Daphne before getting one for himself, closing the doors and then hoisting himself up into the front seat. In a few seconds, soft snoring echoed from the van.

Nice. I might have to work in a filler snippet prior to this point with Velma and Daphne running into Sibella and Thorn when I have the time but I'm looking forward to seeing where you take this.
And does anyone else notice that with the multiple authors and ideas we seem to be writing in the tradition of Scooby-Doo and its multiple continuities?
