Ch 243: Exploring the Island before Dinner
Scooby and Shaggy wander through the marsh as the sun sets and it begins to get dark.
They can hear the sound of what seems to be a shovel hitting the dirt.
"Like, what is that digging noise?" Shaggy asks
"Ri, to rnow." Scooby says
Then there is a grunt.
Shaggy and Scooby peak their head through a bush to see Harriet burying a chest.
"Rarriet?" Scooby asks
"Oh? Hi Scooby." Harriet says
"What are you doing here?" Shaggy asks
"Reburying treasure," Harriet says
"Why?" Shaggy asks
"Well mom said we didn't need it and she is right we don't need it," Harriet says as she begins to shovel dirt onto the chest.
"So, why are you two out here?" Harriet asks distracting them from the treasure.
"Roast." Scooby says
"A roast? well, that seems like you two." Harriet says
"No, a ghost." Shaggy says
"Ah, right the haunted mansion. I need to make you ride the Disney ride now." Harriet mutters.
"So, if you don't mind me asking... what's that sword on your waist belt?" Shaggy asks
"Oh, it's Excalibur." Harriet says still shoveling more dirt into the hole.
"Excalibur? Did you name it that?" Shaggy asks as Harriet facepalms.
Harriet suddenly just throws the shovel in the hole and makes a pushing motion with her arms as all the dirt moves into the hole.
"And done. What was the question Shaggy?" Harriet asks looking at him.
"Did you just use magic?" Shaggy asks
"No it was the force," Harriet says
"Really?" Shaggy asks excitedly.
"Yep, I even have a lightsaber see," Harriet says as she pulls out the golden glowing Excalibur from its sheath.
"Like, that's super cool," Shaggy says before he sees a zombie behind Harriet. So he begins to shake and as he is about to scream.
"I know right here watch this," Harriet says happily as she does one of those lights saber tricks with Excalibur and cuts the zombie in half behind her.
There is a muffled moaning scream before the zombie is purified and becomes dust.
"Huh? Did I hit something?" Harriet asks turning around to see nothing there.
"Eh, oh well," Harriet says with a shrug.
==============================
"Why do I have that feeling Harriet did something again," Kyra mutters
"Because your 6th sense is better than mine," Luna says
"What happened?" Velma asks
"Harriet did something, I don't know what exactly it was she did, however..." Kyra goes quiets as she spreads out her senses and sees Harriet accidentally cut a zombie in half with Excalibur.
Kyra just sighs.
"Of course, she wouldn't notice," Kyra says
"Dinner!" Lena shouts
=======================
"Rinner?" Scooby asks having heard it with his hearing.
"Dinner time already?" Shaggy asks
"Let's head back then!" Harriet says excitedly
The Trio walks through the forest for a while.
"I feel like we are going in a circle," Harriet says as she cuts down a tree.
Suddenly Harriet feels some magic drain from the air.
'Oh interesting.' Harriet thinks wondering what kind of ward she just destroyed.
"Why did you cut down a tree?" Shaggy asks
"It looked at me weird, tree's shouldn't be able to look at people," Harriet says
"Right." Scooby says in agreement.
=====================
Meanwhile at the dinner table
Simone suddenly flinches.
Kyra narrows her eyes seeing magic around here.
'Odd I thought she became a werecat because of her worshiping of a cat demon.' Kyra thinks wondering if Simone is also a witch.
"I'm back." Harriet says sitting down next to Luna
"Ah Scooby. Shaggy did you see anything interesting.
"Harriet killed a zombie." Shaggy says
"I did?" Harriet asks with a head tilt.
