"Well now, that was certainly exciting now wasn't it?" questioned Cleo fastening her kids back in the stroller while the rest of her friends spoke with the Sheriff outside. "Yeah, and I for one want out of this place before someone gets hurt!" said Demon. "Oh, I think not, dear husband! Someone is CLEARLY using the old campfire stories to frighten us off. Besides, do you truly think Fred will let us leave without attempting to save the camp?" questioned Cleo turning to her husband raising a brow. "I hate it when your right...." grumbled Demon. "Of course I'm right! I AM the child of Pharaohs after all." said Cleo matter of factly. "Don't remind me, your mother's bad enough!" said Demon. Both Cleo and Demon froze and look at each other when they heard screaming outside. "Uh, what was that?" asked Demon. "Only one way to find out!" said Cleo running out of the cabin with Demon following behind. When they arrived where their friends were, Catman was giving an apologetic looking Spaceman a dirty look and tapping his foot. "What is going on out here? We heard screaming." said Cleo. "Your friend got electrocuted." said Rath pointing to a twitching Shaggy on the ground with sparks of electricity coming out of his body. "Spaceman, why in the name of the gods did you electrocute Shaggy for!?" questioned Cleo placing her hands on her hips. "The Sheriff called Velma pretty." said Starchild shaking his head with a sigh. "And unfortunately Shaggy just so happened to be standing next to him when it happened!" added Fred. Cleo raised a brow at Spaceman. "Oh? If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were jealous, Spaceman." "Called it!" rasped Shaggy raising a finger before twitching again. "Well next time he decides to get jealous, do it AWAY from my boyfriend!" said Catman glaring at his friend. "Come on, Shag, let's bring you somewhere so you can sleep off that electric shock." said Demon carrying Shaggy away. "Well, now while he's doing that, anything I need to be informed of?" questioned Cleo. "Your friend over there believes the others campers were responsible for the Fishman attack and is planning on getting back at them." said Rath pointing to Fred who was standing there with his arms crossed and a proud smile along with Luke who was mimicking him. "Fred! There just children!" scolded Cleo tapping her foot. "Snobby children that need to be taught a lesson! Believe me, Cleo, next time those campers decide to attack, we'll be ready for them!" said Fred proudly. "Mother, would you kindly mind watching the children tonight? Demon and I will be out late making sure Fred doesn't do anything foolish." sighed Cleo pinching the bridge of her nose. "And somehow I get the feeling I'M going to be dragged into it." said Rath glaring at his sister.
"It's official, Fred's lost it!" whispered Demon from where they were hiding in the bushes. "Your just realizing that now?" muttered Rath. "Sadly, for once I agree with you two. While I understand how much this camp means to Fred, this IS going a little overboard." sighed Cleo. "We got him!" yelled Fred after hearing the trap being sprung. "Yeah, great Woodsman catch, Fred!" said Demon sarcastically as Fred undid the trap and took the hat off the intruder only to reveal it to be the woman from Camp Big Moose. "You're not the Woodsman, your that gorgeous camp counselor woman from Camp Big Moose." said Fred dreamily. "Ohhh wait until I tell Nefertina you've had eyes for another woman, Fred!" said Rath smirking at the blonde. "Nefertina has a crush on Fred?" asked Catman looking at Rath. "Indeed." replied Cleo crossing her arms. "Huh, you know I totally would've expected Fred and Shandi getting together." said Daphne thoughtfully. "Don't you have a crush on Fred, Daphne?" asked Velma. "Huh? No way! I have a boyfriend actually." said Daphne. "Really!? When did THAT happen!?" asked Velma. "About a month after we got back from Mexico." said Daphne. "Seriously, Velma, like we thought you knew Daphne and Starchild were dating. Like you, Fred and Spaceman like the only ones out of us who aren't in a relationship yet!" said Shaggy. "I don't have a girlfriend!" said Scooby raising a paw. "Don't worry, Scoob, like you'll find the right dog someday." said Saggy patting his best friend's head. "Not to but into the conversation but whom are you exactly?" questioned Cleo raising an eyebrow at the woman. "I'm Jessica." said the woman from Camp Big Moose. "Right....and what exactly are you doing here?" asked Demon. "I didn't mean to scare you guys but some of our camping equipment has gone missing and well, I thought it might be you Little Moosers pulling a prank." said Jessica getting to her feet and pulling her coat off. "Little Mossers don't pull pranks. We leave that to those s-" Fred was cut off by Cleo clamping his mouth shut. "Stolen camping gear, monster attacks, what is going on?" questioned Velma. "Why don't we ask him!?" yelled Catman pointing to a dark shadowy figure. "Get.....OUT!" growled the Woodsman raising his axe. "Don't have to tell us twice!" yelled Demon grabbing Cleo's arm and making a run for it with everyone else.
"I think we lost him!" said Shaggy as he, Scooby, and Catman climbed up the flagpole. "Guess again!" yelled Catman feeling the flagpole shake. "Maybe he'll give up!" said Shaggy. "With an axe that big and a flagpole this size? Ain't happening!" said Catman. "Uh oh!" said Scooby as the flagpole began to tilt. "Told you!" yelled Catman following Shaggy and Scooby onto on of the cabin's roofs with the Woodsman chasing after them. "Scoob, like now is not the time to stop!" said Shaggy as he and Catman bumped into him. "How about running out of roof!?" asked Catman noticing Scooby pointing down. "Catman, like now would be a good time to fly!" yelled Shaggy. "Good thinking!" said Catman grabbing Shaggy and Scooby before taking off into the air narrowly missing the Woodsman's axe. "Like where did he go?" asked Shaggy looking up at the roof they were just on to find the Woodsman was no where in sight. "Does it really matter now that WE'RE not the targets anymore?" asked Catman looking at Shaggy. "Like good point!" said Shaggy wrapping his arm around the drummer's neck.
