Scooby Doo! Music of the Vampire Page #5

Actually I must confess...

...the outfit Valdronya was wearing

in his tomb was new.

How? You said he was sealed in his tomb

for a thousand years.

Yes, but his clothing

had disintegrated overtime.

We unsealed him briefly for authentication

and in the name of modesty.

Valdronya's clothing had disintegrated,

but he didn't. That's odd.

A vampire is a living being,

even in a state of slumber.

This is what's left

of his original garments.

Antique Asian silk.

Spun gold markings.

The thick hand weave.

Fabric like this hasn't been made

for 500 years.

Valdronya is still out there.

Think I'll just grab these things.

I'm afraid those actors unleashed

an unholy terror upon us all.

Yes, the actors.

Ooh. I'll go check them out.

I bet you will.

Freddy, do I detect a little

twinge of jealousy?

Me, jealous of some vitamin D-deprived,

historical vampire reenactment nuts?

Maybe I should go with you.

No, thanks.

I'm well prepared to handle Bram.

Uh... I mean, the actors. Bye.

Hmm.

Hello? Anyone in here?

Strange place for a laser projector.

Bram. Don't sneak up on a girl like that.

I wasn't the one sneaking.

You looking for something or someone?

Actually, I... Do you sleep up there?

To know the vampire,

you must become the vampire.

Hm. You're really committed.

It's the role I was meant for.

So do you lurk around

darkened theaters often?

More than you know.

Well, there's something

we have in common...

- ...right off the bat.

- Cute.

Grab on. I'll teach you to fly.

I don't know. Promise not to drop me?

Only a fool would drop a girl like you.

Smooth.

Wow, this is amazing.

It's fate that brought you here.

Destiny. A cosmic occurrence.

A vision foretold.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Bram, I think you're very interesting,

but you're one clich from my limit.

Daphne.

From the moment you'd first seen us

Did you ever in your life think

You'd be standing here with me?

With this thing we have between us

I could tell that it was fate

And it was always meant to be

Yes, you and! were meant for glory

And something greater

Than this drab little world that we see

And who'd have thought that later

You and! would have this dale

A dale with destiny

I can't believe you think I'd buy that

Come on, I've heard this all before

It's just a line, I'm not naive

I really can't believe you'd try that

I've gotta say you must be nuts

To think that's something I'd believe

You lay it on there kind of heavy

With all this talk of something special

So, what could it be?

What if I say I know a way

To immortality?

Really?

You and! could live forever

You mean our lives would never end?

That's right

And we won't be aging ever?

You'd be Bram's immortal friend

- For real?

- That's the deal

- Can't you feel, it's so exciting?

- Everlasting life eternal

You've been chosen for this honor

You'll have wealth and you'll have fame

I gotta write this in my journal

Just wail and see

Everyone will know your name

- Will I slay cute?

- Absolute

We'll be going down in history

We'll be known throughout the world

Eternity for you and me

Let's live forever and ever

Yes, never to sever

Together forever, we'll be

You and me

I'm gonna have to say thanks, but no.

Points for trying though.

This makes us very unhappy.

Well, I'm sorry, but... Us?

Seize the Vampire's bride.

The what?

Where are we?

No clue, Scoob. Not that it matters.

This swamp is as good a home as any

for a vampire and his canine pal.

- Except for the leeches.

- Leeches?

But, hey, we won't let a few little leeches

spoil things, will we, Scoob?

No way.

Snake!

Gators!

Crawdads!

Snakes and gators and crawdads.

Oh, my.

I think we need a new life plan,

Scooby-Don.

Shaggy, look.

A tin shack. It's a dream come true.

Remember, Scoob, don't say anything

about me being a vampire.

Okay.

- Company? Come on in, cher. Hoo-hon!

- Whoa!

Sit you down a spell

while I put on that gumbo.

Gumbo?

Like, man, our luck has changed, Scoob.

My name's Tulie.

That's not my real name, no.

But that's what it say on the shack,

so I go with that. Hoo-hon!

Hon! Look at that right there.

Now we cooking some kind of yeah.

How come you live way out here

in the middle of nowhere?

Well, if you must know, I'm on the run.

- From what?

- Vampires!

Ooh, I hate them, me.

And if I ever catch me one,

I'm going to grind his bones for stew.

Maybe we should be going.

Stay right there.

It's gumbo time.

Ah.

Well, I wasn't always a crazy old hermit.

I used to be a handsome inventor

of fantastical devices.

Oh, yeah? What'd you invent?

Gadgets, whatchamacallits, thingamajigs.

Stuff that go:

Buzz, buzz, hoppity-hoppity, hoop!

I had me a little shop over there

at Petit Chauve Sourie Ville...

...where I sold things...

...the most popular item being a hat

with two cup holders and along straw...

...so you could have two soda pops

while you're watching that ball game.

Like, wow, ha, ha,

you invented the drinky hat?

No, but I sold them in the store.

Ain't nobody ever bought my inventions

because, like I said, they mostly just went.

Bleep, bleep, bloop, bloop,

hoop, hoop.

But then I created

the greatest invention ever:

Flying shoes.

They're based on the same principle

as a hover boat.

But the fans be pointed down

to lift you off the ground.

Whoo-whoo-whoo! There you go.

And I was all set to show them

to a big shoe company...

...when a vampire attacked me

and stole the prototypes.

Well, I filed me an insurance claim.

But it turns out

they don't cover vampire attacks.

Hoo-hon.

That's awful.

More, please.

Me too.

I was ruined, y'all.

I've been living out here

in the swamp ever since.

And that is why

I hates me them vampires.

Like, how long ago did this happen?

I don't know, long as

I've been growing these here whiskers.

Maybe two, three weeks now.

Oh, well, that's life.

You know, sometime you lose everything

on account of vampires...

...sometime you don't. Ha, ha.

How y'all like the gumbo?

Amazing.

Amazing. Mm-mm-mm.

Yeah.

That's because of my special ingredient.

Heh.

Leeches.

I likes to put them leech in the gumbo.

Leech gumbo. Yum. That's good, yeah.

Thanks for everything.

Y'all come back anytime!

Look at this. The stolen jewels are part of

some sort of vampire wedding ceremony.

The vampire bonding ritual.

According to legend, if the vampire

takes the soul of his mortal bride...

...he'll gain unbridled power.

The ceremony must take place

upon the third moon...

...following the Vampire's release

from captivity.

That's tonight.

If Valdronya succeeds,

he'll be unstoppable.

Unstoppable? Not if I can help it.

Maybe vampires were tough to catch

back in the day, but times have changed.

There's a new breed of vampire hunter

me.

Vampire hunting

is serious business, Fred.

You must be prepared for anything.

Oh, I'm prepared, all right.

Gotta watch that hair trigger.

Not so fast.

The vampire has the jewels...
