Scooby Doo Mystery Incorperated: After the Ending

Getting Settled

Freddy pulled up with the Mystery Machine to the gang's new college. They were all excited. They were all nervous. Of course they were going to solve a lot of mysteries, that was a necessity! But they were worried about classes. Fred was going into the business field with a dream to create a trap company. Daphne wanted to major in beauty school. Velma wanted to become a computer designer. Shaggy was studying the culinary arts meaning, a lot of free samples! Scooby was rooming with Shaggy and Fred.

They grabbed their bags and stood outside the building, feeling intimidated. The campus was huge. It had state of the art cafeterias, pools, and even theaters! The rooms were five star and the library had unlimited resources with the most up to date computers. It was scary. Even with all the nice utilities, the whole thing had a... spooky vibe, which was right up their alley.

"Ready gang?" Fred gulped.

They all nodded. A little breeze began to blow. The sky was grey, showing signs of rain.

Even with the breeze, Shaggy sweated. "Like, it'll be fine... I hope."

Freddy gave him a supportive pat on the back. There was a small silence.

" Alright," Velma sighed, " Let's go!"

They walked inside the revolving doors and up to the front desk.

"Hello," Daphne smiled at the secretary, "I just showed up, and I have no idea where my room is."

The secretary was grumpy, like always. "Name?" she grumbled.

"Daphne Blake," Daphne continued to smile, sensing the secretary's grumpiness, "and my roommate Velma Dinkly."

Velma half-waved and avoided eye contact.

"Here you go," the secretary handed over her keys.

"Thanks," Daphne replied, "Um... do you have a map or something... of the school?"

"No."

Daphne turned around and shot Fred an irritated look, so he knew how she felt. Fred chuckled, "Watch and learn."

He walked up to the secretary. "Fred Jones and Norville Rogers, signing in," he said calmly.

"Here you go," the secretary handed over their keys.

"Groovy." Fred walked past Daphne and down the hall, shooting her a boasting glance.

Shaggy started to follow him. He chuckled, "Like, see you guys at dinner." He hurried after Fred, disappearing down the hall. Scooby trailed behind.

"Well," Velma rolled her eyes, "Might as well find our rooms."

"Yeah," Daphne said, worry in her voice. After a start like that, it was clear that college wasn't going to be easy.

Their room was a huge, two bedroom, two bathroom, state of the art dorm. The rooms were equipped with TVs and queen sized beds. The bathrooms had large bathtubs and showers. The kitchen was stocked with food and utilities, even a dishwasher. The living room had a view of the tennis courts and the beautiful sunsets.

"Jinkies," Velma said in awe.

"Pretty nice," Daphne looked around, "For a dorm, that is."

The boys' dorm was similar, but with a view of the large pool. It also had an extra pet room for Scooby. He wasn't sure if he wanted to stay with Shaggy, or enjoy this new "Luxury Suite".

"Scoob," Shaggy sighed, "You've stayed with me since we were little. I want more space when I sleep!"

"Roh kay Raggy," Scooby whimpered.

"Like, trust me Scoob, you'll love it!" Shaggy assured him.

"This is a sweet pad!" Fred took it all in, "By the way, uh, you don't mind if I rig this place with traps, do you?"

Shaggy gave him a knowing smile and Scooby snickered.

"Sure Fred," he agreed, "Like, just don't rig the fridge, I night raid."

"Rooming together is going to be great," Fred smiled.

"Like, yeah," Shaggy said, "I wonder how the girls are doing."

"I'll check." Freddy whipped out his flip phone and texted Daphne:
Fred: Hey, how's the unpacking?
Daphne replies a minute later.
Daphne: Great! This is going to be totally groovy!
"They're doing great, Shaggy," Freddy updated him.

"Great," Shaggy replied, "Like, ask them to meet us for dinner, I'm starved!"

"Me too!" Scooby agreed.

Fred: Want to meet up for dinner?
Daphne: Just you and me?
Fred: Of course not! The whole gang!
Daphne: Oh, great. Yeah sounds good.
Fred: Great! Meet us at the café in 10
Daphne: Sweet

"They'll meet us in ten minutes," Fred answered.

"Cool," Shaggy replied, "Like, let's head over now."
