“You never know,” she grinned and stood up. “This might be your lucky day.” Or maybe it was just another day as Mystery Incorporated. He wasn’t wrong that 90% of the time these things were a hoax, but it was the 10% that made it worth wild for adrenaline junkies. Neither of them would admit it, but that’s exactly what they were. “Occam’s razor says we should try the simplest solution first which means we should go for the breaker box. It’s this way, I think.” She started walking toward the back of the building. “Let’s just hope that if it is a ghost, she’s not as malicious as Sarah Ravencroft was.” That was the first ghost hunt where Thorn ran into the gang, and unfortunately for them Sarah was a very real and very dangerous ghost.

.

          the male followed her, chuckling softly “this is your case so i’ll follow your lead.” freddie grinned, already getting that excitement he always got when they were solving a mystery... the only way this would be better was if the rest of the gang was there. “sarah was something else... i was having flashbacks to that when we were in the himalayas.” he sighed “sarah was easier to deal with than that demon.” freddie pulled his phone out, turning the flashlight on just in case

Ambie chuckled softly “Oh yeah I’m sure all those people love your sleuthing skills being used on their cases.” He replied looking at the other after all he didn’t hanging out with Fred it was nice actually having another friend. “That’s sounds amazing, sure I’ll help you take a look at it and hopefully you’ll take home the prize.” He replied before taking the hose to water his dog. “That she is, have you heard from the rest of your gang lately?” 

.

            “we got lucky, our favourite past time turned a profit and people seem to want our help.” freddie shrugged. he never like making a big deal out of their mystery solving, not that he wasn’t proud of their work because he was, but freddie didn’t want to seem like he was bragging about their success. “aw, i don’t know about that but maybe i can at least get an honorable mention or even some feedback on it.” he didn’t have the skills to win but he was hoping that this would give him some new ideas. freddie set the dog into the water and knelt down next to her to begin washing her “velms is back in coolsville and shaggy and scooby are probably eating their way down a coastline so right now it’s just me and daphne here.”

Ambie smiled watching Fed and the dog she seemed quite happy to play and be adored by the male which he couldn’t fault her. “I suppose I wouldn’t mind so long as there is no trouble involved I am trying to give my Sister a break from such things.” he mused before turning on the water to wash off his dog in the little pool chuckling. ‘She may just follow you home, better be careful Fred.” he teased. 

.

          he couldn’t help but laugh “me? trouble? i would never.” freddie grinned “there’s no mystery involved with it so your sister should have nothing to get grey hairs over. traps illustrated is running a contest so i’m putting something together.” he explained before moving over towards the pool to try and coax the dog in “aww, i don’t think that’s a bad thing. she’s the sweetest thing ever.”

 “I  would  too,”  he  agreed.  “She’s  a  pretty  sweet  ride.”  His  own  car  was  parked  right  beside  the  Mystery  Machine.  He  managed  to  swipe  the  spot  before  the  Karen  could  get  it  which  pissed  her  off  to  begin  with,  but  as  soon  as  he  started  filling  the  meter  for  the  Mystery  Machine  too,  he  was  sure  her  head  was  gonna  explode.  “Nah,  you  don’t  owe  me  anything,”  he  assured  the  kid.  “It’s  all  in  a  day’s  work.”  He  shot  the  Karen  a  grin  as  she  drove  off  while  flipping  the  bird  at  both  of  them.  New  Yorkers.  He  raised  an  eyebrow  when  the  kid  said  his  name  was  Fred.  He  shouldn’t  have  been  surprised  considering  this  world  has  a  lot  of  heroes  already.  “I’m  Dean,”  he  shook  the  kid’s  hand.  “Dean  Winchester.”

.

          freddie let out a sigh of relief "the old girl has been with us for a while, the gang would probably kill me for losing bertha." he laughed, glad that he'd not have to explain his slip up. before he turned back to the man, fred noticed the black impala next to the van "is she yours? that is one sweet ride." he couldn't help but chuckle at the woman's anger "it's nice to meet you dean. since you won't let me pay you back can i at least buy your lunch? there's a decent diner nearby, they got some great bacon burgers."

It was late and she was rehearsing for a show when the lights in the studio began to flicker. Thorn stopped and sighed before looking over at her companion. “They say these old studios are pretty haunted, but what building in New York isn’t?” she shrugged. “Come on, let’s go see if we’re dealing with a ghost or just a shitty electrical wiring system.” 

.

          he was happy when he'd found out thorn was in new york. he hadn't seen her or the other hex girls in a while and freddie considered them as his friends so he was glad to be able to catch up. at her statement he raised a brow, looking at her from over the top of his can of coke "do you know how many times i've heard that statement only for it to be a disgruntled janitor or landlord?" freddie laughed as he stood up "a ghost might be a fun change for once."

“Not a problem,” she grinned as he bent down to tie his shoes. “it was probably the easiest save i’ve made in admittedly very long my career.” she just wanted to make sure he didn’t trip while crossing the road. there was a 50/50 chance you got run over by an angry cabbie doing that. “i’ve seen you on this trail before. what’s your name?” 

.

          "well any time you need a break just let me know." freddie chuckled "between me and my friends you might long for the days of alien invasions and government takedowns." the gang might not get into the type of trouble an avenger was used to but they probably got into just as much trouble "fred jones ma'am. it's pretty rad to meet you."

            useful for catching small animals? diligence hoped. this guy didn’t seem much like a monster hunter, he seemed a bit too kind for that. dil blinked. “m-mystery solver?” it was an unusal term. perhaps he was a detective of some sort? most likely. that explained the traps, sort of. “mystery inc, i believe i’ve heard of you.” some articles pertaining their adventures took his interest more than once. calmer, diligence offered his hand. “i’m dil,” he introduced. “you and your friends do a lot of good, thank you.”

.

          freddie nodded, a smile on his face "yeah! like, sometimes people will hire us to look into stuff but a lot of the time we just stumble into cases when we're trying to relax." he shrugged. it was odd once you thought about it, how their crazy adventures would sneak up on them at the most random times. "it's nice to meet you dil! i'm fred, fred jones." he reached out to shake the male's hand "thanks man! we certainly try and luckily things seem to work out for us."

his smile was so bright. like a million little sunshine’s, burning brightly and beautifully. it made her feel warm in a way no one else did. daphne could only wonder if fred had any idea how wonderful his smile was. telling him wasn’t a possibility though. they were friends after all. and if he didn’t see the hints she dropped in the past, that made itself clear. she wouldn’t lose his friendship over a crush, he was far too important. “we could look together,” she offered him. it wasn’t a mystery mystery like with the gang. it would just be them finding some people. very different. (also very tempting, the idea of spending alone time with him and a mystery. it was like a dream come true). “if you want to, that is.” she added the last sentence, careful not to make him feel cornered to spend time with her. there was always the fear that maybe he had picked up her hints in the past, and him not saying anything was his rejection… either way it was, it was clear he wasn’t interested. and she had to be okay with that, because she loved him far too much to not have him in her life. “we could also ask the others if they want to come to?” she offered, a bit hastily in her fear of his rejection of the idea.

.

          as much as fred was in love with daphne, he knew she wasn't into him like that and he'd rather just pine after her forever than lose her friendship. so he'd suffer and just watch in jealousy as some lucky bastard made her happy... yeah, that's the better move. "are you sure? i don't want to pull you away from some thing important." fred smiled, hoping that she really would help him so they could spend more time together. "aw, you know i can never say no to you daph." he shrugged, bashfully rubbing the back of his head. the others... right... he sighed internally "i think velms had to go back to coolsville... i don't know about shaggy and scooby though."

                 “even bertha?” she teased him good heartedly, though she did appreciate the sincerity in his response to her interruption. “i feel honored.” she laughed (the special kind of laugh reserved for the gang of mystery inc, typically triggered by a certain ascot wearing man). “with you at the helm i’m sure she’s always ready.” it was surprising the amount of high speed chases they got stuck into that bertha always pulled through, with fred’s driving of course. “me?” he cared, the high schooler in her swelled with affection (also her current self, but that was a far less tier). “i’m good, i just dropped off an artifact from the last case at that cute little magic shop! it looked right at home.”

.

          the male nodded confidently “i think bertha would agree with me.” he smiled softly at daphne. sure, freddie loved the van, it was his baby, but daphne was daphne and nothing and no one could beat her. fred was sure that she didn’t feel the same way about him, because who would, but no matter how many times he tried to get over her he never could. “well yeah.” freddie chuckled as he wiped the oil off his hands before walking away from the van. “oh good! i’m still searching for the people that those coins were taken from, it’s like after they moved they vanished.”

         “a trap?” diligence responded with a note of confusion in his tone as his brain processed through all the variables of jobs a trap could be used for, before selecting the one that seemed the most reasonable. “are you a hunter of some sort?” perhaps one of those supernatural hunters? dil hoped it didn’t mean the lad wanted to kill him, that’d be a tedious situation if so. 

.

          fred nodded “yeah, they come in pretty useful.” it probably sounded strange, freddie could admit that, but they really did help with closing most of their mysteries. “a hunter?” he was surprised at that, he didn’t think he looked like a hunter “no, i’m a mystery solver, part of mystery inc. my friends and i go around and get to the bottom of hauntings and mysteries all over.”
