As the others were solving their own clues down by the stage, Shaggy and Scooby licked on some delicious ice cream from the stand Scooby found earlier, and Pipp and Misty were happily to walk alongside. "Good deal finding that ice cream stand, Scoob," Shaggy said to his best friend. "We'll have this case licked in no time. Ha-ha-ha!"

"Yeah... licked!" Scooby devoured the rest of his ice cream, and Misty bumped him the cone, to which he swallowed whole. "Ah..."

"So... what do you guys think of those bat pony sisters?" Misty asked after a minute of silence. "I think they're super sweet!" Pipp interjected her thoughts on the matter. "Maybe a little suspicious, kinda like my sister, but overall? I love their musical style."

"Still... it feels like they have some sort of secret they're keeping from us," Misty said. "Like how I was working for Opaline. But you know... they play it a lot cooler than I did."

"Like, Misty, you gotta chill out," Shaggy said before he frowned at the concerned look Misty was giving. "Hey... are you good? You act like some sort of natural disaster struck."

Misty and Pipp shared a worried glance at each other before they nodded. Shaggy and Scooby supported them from the very beginning. They needed to know about the threat Opaline could bring now that she had her full strength.

Misty sighed deeply. "The truth is, guys... remember how I said that Opaline's true power comes from a dragon's fire?"

"How could we forget?" Shaggy said with a nervous chuckle. "Yeah," Scooby nodded with a shudder in between. "You guys are lucky to get out of each interaction alive."

"Yeah, well... here's the thing," Pipp said with a bit of hesitance. "On our last Unity Quest, she was able to capture Sparky, and... she... stole a majority of his dragon fire."

Shaggy and Scooby stopped in their tracks with a deep gasp. "We got him back with the help of some new friends, thank goodness," Misty said to reassure them, "but... Sparky is still kinda weak from most of his fire being gone."

"Ohh... poor Sparky..." Scooby whimpered, ears pinned. "So, here's what we wanted to tell you-- keep your eyes and ears open," Misty spoke with a serious look. "Opaline could come after you guys, and we don't want you to get hurt."

To this, Shaggy and Scooby nodded firmly, making Misty and Pipp somewhat relieved.

At least that was out of the way. Now they just needed to figure out where to continue their search for clues.

That's when Shaggy spotted a building not too far off. "Dude, maybe we should investigate the Rockin' Flume."

"Ooh, good idea!" Pipp said. "I'm up for a good slow, water ride to get my mind off things."

They made their way toward the ride, where Shaggy read a sign with the Demon sticking a measurable tongue out of his mouth. "Your tongue must be this long to ride this ride."

"Ehhh..." Misty groaned as she stuck out her tongue to see if it was long enough... just as Scooby swiped Shaggy's ice cream. Scooby giggled and smirked as Shaggy downed his ice cream cone, smiling nonetheless. "Looks like your tongue's long enough to get us ALL on this ride! Heh-heh!"

After they moved past the line queue and into the main part of the ride, Shaggy let out a relaxed sigh. "It's like the perfect park day. No lines, no operators."

But as they moved further in, they noticed red mist coming from a closet, and stuff repeatedly getting thrown from it, sparking their confusion and curiosity. "Huh?"

No one knew what was waiting for them beyond that closet door, so they crept closer and sniffed the air, instantly reeling back in disgust and covering their noses. "P-U!" Shaggy fanned some of the mist away. "Like, what died in here?"
