a Mystery unsolved (Shaggy x Fred)

A rare occurrence..

!!TW!!
Uncensored swearing

It was a rainy, stormy night at the cemetery of Austin Texas. The Mystery Inc gang standing outside as confident as ever.. well.. except for Shaggy and Scooby. They were trembling and hugging each other out of fear.

There was a call stating that there was an extreme poltergeist haunting. There were rumours saying that kids, ages 11 to 13, and teenagers, ages 15 to 17, have gone missing in the cemetery. All the more reason to be afraid. And shaggy knew they had to get out of there. He tried to warn them to get away from here while there was still time. Scooby agreed but the gang, as always, never listened and continued walking into the cemetery.

Once past the gates, they were welcomed by the crippled tombstones that were surrounded by dark lifeless trees with crooked branches pointing in multiple directions. The rain suddenly stopped but the wind and clouds never went away. Is was dark and spooky. The gates creaking with every swing.

Shaggy couldn't shake the feeling that something bad was going to happen. "Like.. seriously, Daphne," he started, "we have to leave. Like.. I feel like something bad is gonna happen." He said with fear in his voice. Daphne just rolled her eyes and continued walking, completely ignoring him. But Fred never failed to notice the fear in Shaggy, at all.

Honestly Fred was starting to get worried. Shaggy was shaking more than he would at the previous mysteries they've solved, he was more alert then usual and his fingers were twitching, which was new because he's never done that before. He was sweating vigorously and he was looking around as if he was going to be pounced on at any moment.

Scooby, the brown and black greatdane, was being the same as he always was but he could sense the stress and fear and couldn't help but be worried for him. Velma noticed this but just shrugged it off as normal.

It wasn't normal.

It was beyond normal. He was never this stressed or scared unless he heard his parents came back early from 'work'. He was never this twitchy while solving mysteries with the gang. He was never this sweaty. He never looked around as much as he did now. They walked around and Shaggy constantly losing his balance because of his shaking.

To him, he felt hot but cold. He felt as if the ground under him was shaking. He felt as if someone, or something, was watching him from every angle. From both corners of his eye he would see something move. He flinched every time he felt something touch him. Whether that thing was there.. or not..

He was so aware of his surroundings, he almost lost his friends in the process.

When he ran back, he ran to Fred and hugged him from behind, scared out of his mind. Only then, did Fred know how bad this situation was. Fred was shaking, not out of fear, but because Shaggy was shaking against him. THAT was how bad this situation was. Fred put his hands on Shaggy's to show him that he was there for him. Fred knew this was bad. "Daphne," He called out.

"Yeah, Fred?" She responded with a smile on her face. Not looking back at the two males who were behind her and Velma.

"Maybe we should come back at a later time and date.." he said with worry. Scooby Doo's ears perked up at that sentence.

"No!" The great dane called out. "Let's never come back!" He said, shaking his head vigorously next to Fred.

Fred looked back at Shaggy only to see that he was still shaking. Shaggy was too afraid of his surroundings to even acknowledge the fact that they could possibly be going home.

Daphne, however, ignored him, waving her hand in a disregarding manner. Fred saw this and decided to scold her on how irresponsible she was towards her friends, making Shaggy let go of him in the process. He was mad. VERY mad. She argued back, saying that this was a once in a life time opportunity that they could not possibly let go of. They went back and forth, yelling over each other in between. Scooby ducked down, covering his ears while Velma went and sat next to him.

As they kept yelling, Velma suddenly remembered that Shaggy didn't like it when people argued either. She looked around looking for Shaggy only to realise that he wasn't there. "Guys.." she spoke softly, as fear began to resonated inside of her abdomen. They kept yelling, totally ignoring all the small sounds going on around them.

"Guys." She said with a little more volume to her voice, trying to ignore the nausea residing and rising in her stomach. They didn't stop.

"GUYS! SHAGGY'S GONE FOR FUCK SAKES!" She yelled, over powering the yelling of the couple.
