(Y/N) POV:


One at a time, we all climb down the rope, while also making sure to be careful so that we don't accidentally fall onto each other, especially since there's no telling how far it is to the bottom.

"Kind of musty down here," says Shaggy. "I sure hope my allergies don't start acting up,"

The moment he says that, he sneezes, causing him to fall down on top of me, Velma, Daphne and Fred. We all end up falling onto the ground and into a dog pile.

"Shaggy!" I reprimand.

"Sorry," he says.

"Whoa! Whoa!" Fred exclaims all of a sudden.

Before any of us can ask what Fred's problem was, in doesn't take long for us to notice so many snakes, bugs and rats crawling around down here, making us all jump. We immediately get back on our feet and take a look at our surroundings, realizing that this must be the ruins of the old Coolsville High, or what's left of it from the Coolsville flood.

"Wow. So long Coolsville, welcome to Creepsville," says Shaggy.

"You can say that again," I say. "Now I know what they mean when they say a fixer-upper,"

"No one has fixed this place up since the turn of the century," says Velma.

"Well, I guess we better start looking for the time capsule," says Daphne.

"Come on, this way," Fred says, leading the way.

Good thing the Specter at least let us keep our flashlights, otherwise we'd all have a hard time watching where we're going. The only problem is that this place is so old that it'd practically be impossible for us to find the time Capsule.

"Yuck. Now I know why he wanted us to come down here," Daphne says all of a sudden.

"When we do get out of here, remind me to give that guy payback for everything we've been through," I say.

"Trust me, (Y/N). You're not the only one who wants some payback from him," says Fred.

"Oh, so like, if the time capsule was never buried then where would it be?" Shaggy asks.

Hearing him say that, makes all of us begin to wonder ourselves.

"I don't know," says Velma. "I guess we just have to search until we find it,"

She then directs her flashlight to an old door that read "Directory" and tries to open it, but the thing refuses to do so.

"All right, let me try. I'm good with these kinds of things," Shaggy says.

"Is he really?" Daphne asks, whispering to me.

"Yes and no," I answer. Fred and Daphne then give me a look, confused by what I mean. "You'll see in a moment. Just watch,"

Once Velma moves out of the way, Shaggy begins to try pulling on the door knob. He yanked on it so hard that the knob came off.

"See?" Shaggy asks, holding the knob for us to see.

Just as we begin to think that we might be able to get in, we hear something creaking. I look up to see that the wall is about to fall, and on Velma too!

"Velma, look out!" I yell.

"Jinkies!" she screams, looking up to see what's happening.

"Get back!" Daphne yells, yanking me and Shaggy from the back of our hoodies so that we won't get hit.
