Scooby-Doo in Head Over Spring Heels Part 2

The mischievous, hopping mad Spring-Heeled Jack was somewhere in the Westfield London mall. Where he was, only the Mystery Inc. Gang or the Deviants will find out. The gang was starting their investigation at a hardware shop.
"Seems as good a place as any to start," said Fred.
"Like how are we supposed to get in?" Shaggy asked.
"Security guards have access to every store in the mall. Adam gave us a security card," said Fred.
He scanned the card and disabled the security system and also gained access into the store. The gang went in.
"You think Spring-Heeled Jack stopped in to get his spring's oiled?" said Shaggy.
"Don't be silly, Shaggy," said Velma.
"Everyone split up and look for clues," said Fred.
The gang separated and searched for any hints indicating whether or not Spring-Heeled Jack might have been there.
"Check it out, Scooby," Shaggy said checking out the screwdrivers.
"Rewrivers," said Scooby.
"Velma always has said we've got a couple of screws loose," said Shaggy.
"Don't touch anything, Shaggy," said Fred.
"Sorry," Shaggy apologized putting them back.
Scrappy was checking up high on the shelves to get a good view of the whole store.
"That bouncing bully won't be able to hide forever," he said.
But then he backed up into a bucket of nails and knocked them off the shelf causing a loud clammer.
"Shh!" the gang shushed.
"My bad," Scrappy apologized.
And then Shaggy, not watching his step, accidentally stepped on the scattered nails and poked his feet.
"YEOW!" Shaggy cried.
"Shh!" the gang shushed him as well.
While searching, Daphne believed she may have discovered something.
"Hey, I think I found a clue," she thought.
"What is it, Daph?" Fred asked.
"Look at this," she said referring to a collection of hand tools.
The packaging had been opened and one of the tools was missing from the collection.
"An set of hand tools and it's plastic packaging has been breached," said Velma.
"Like, so what?" Shaggy asked.
Velma looked at the back of the packaging which listed the available tools. The one missing was a glass cutter.
"It appears to be missing a glass cutter. Someone must have taken it," Velma deduced.
"Better write that one down," Scrappy said jotting the clue down.
"Come on. Let's search the theater," said Fred.

The Deviants decided to look for Spring-Heeled Jack at the clothing store. Andrew scanned his security card to gain access.
"Good thing we're in our right to access the stores after hours," said Andrew.
"Duncan would be allover us otherwise," said Angie.
Rod was admiring all the fancy apparel in the store.
"Man Adam, your country knows fashion," he said.
He took some of the clothes off the racks and looked at them.
"Put those back on the rack, Rod," said Adam.
"I want to get a sweater vest. Can I get a sweater vest?" Rod asked.
"No," said Adam.
Angie and Andrew were examining the formal section.
"I just remembered," said Andrew.
"What'd you remember?" Angie asked.
"How will we know if we've found Spring-Heeled Jack if we don't know what he looks like?" Andrew asked.
"If it's someone whose not us, then that's probably him," said Angie.
"I guess that makes sense," said Andrew.
Failing to find any leads, the two returned to Adam and Rod. When they left, one of the capes turned revealing Spring-Heeled Jack who watched them leave.
"Everything seems to fine here. Let's check the music store next door," said Adam.
The Deviants left and when they did, Spring-Heeled Jack snuck up on them from behind. Angie heard footsteps behind her but when she turned, Spring-Heeled Jack already jumped upward to avoid being seen. Rod scanned his card and gained access to the music store. They all went in and Rod yawned.
"I wasn't made for the night shift," he said groggily.
"I'm tired too. I can't do this every night," said Adam.
"Says the guy who didn't even tell us we had the night shift," said Angie.
"I already apologized," said Adam.
"We can ask Duncan if we can have the day shift when all this is over," said Andrew.
They starting searching the music shop for clues. Spring-Heeled Jack carefully snuck in to stir up a little mischief for the guards.
"How the heck are customers suppose to walk through the store with so much stuff in the way?" Andrew wondered.
He found a harp and strummed the strings together, playing a majestic scale.
"Did you find anything, Rod?" he called over to Rod.
Rod was looking under things with his flashlight.
"I found some loose change, Too bad it's European," he said.
Over by a drumset on display, Spring-Heeled Jack's arm reached out and pushed the big drum, rolling it toward Rod. Rod pocketed the dropped change anyway when he saw the drum rolling toward him like a wheel.
"Hey!" he hollered and was then bumped by the drum.
The drum rolled past Andrew, taking Rod with it, and crashed into a rack of CD's. Rod's head was in the drum from the crash.
"Talk about a drum roll," Andrew joked and laughed.
"Roddy, way are you trying to do? Keep it down!" said Angie.
"I'm sorry. I forgot people were sleeping," Rod sarcastically grumbled from within the drum.
He took it off and the drum was now broken with a huge hole in it.
"Look at what you did to the merchandise," said Adam.
"I didn't do anything. It rolled at me from out of nowhere," Rod claimed.
"Let's get out of here and search somewhere else. Before something else breaks," Angie suggested.
"We'll try the photo shop. Put that drum back where it was, Rod," Adam instructed.
The other three Deviants went on ahead and Rod put the broken drum back on display. He displayed it with the hole facing the wall so no one would see the damage.
"Hey, where's my flashlight?" he asked himself.
Rod's flashlight rolled over to his feet right on target.
"Found it," he said.
He took it with him then stopped and then said,
"Wait."
Rod looked back suspiciously. How'd his flashlight instantly return the minute he asked where it was? But he didn't have time to think. The other three moved onto the photo shop and Rod followed. Spring-Heeled Jack came out from hiding laughing when the Deviants left. He hopped out of the music store and back into the mall.

The Mystery Inc. Gang were checking out the theater for anymore clues.
"Spring-Heeled Jack ought to be in pictures himself," Daphne thought.
"Let's have a look around," said Fred.
Shaggy and Scooby were at the snack bar, of course.
"The best part of going to the movies isn't the movie itself. But the snacks," said Shaggy.
"Scooby-Dooby-Doo!" Scooby howled.
The duo was about to help themselves to the candy when Velma took it away from them, making them bite into nothing.
"Scooby-Dooby-Don't. No eating the merchandise, you two," said Velma.
"Aww," Scooby sighed sadly.
"Come on, uncle Scooby. Let's look inside the theater," said Scrappy.
"Good idea, Scrappy. Daphne, Velma, and I will search the projector room. Shaggy, you Scooby and Scrappy search down in the theater," Fred instructed.
"Okay by us. Maybe we'll find some floor popcorn," said Shaggy.
"Yummy," said Scooby.
Half the gang went up to the projector room and the other half searched in between the seats. And also under them.
"Find any chewy, crunchy edibles, Scooby?" Shaggy asked.
"Uh-uh," Scooby replied.
"Come on guys. We're looking for clues not food," said Scrappy.
One of the seats closed on Scrappy while he was in it, trapping him inside.
"Rappy? Where'd he ro?" Scooby asked looking around for him stepping in floor gum without knowing it.
"Scrappy-Doo, where are you?" Shaggy called out.
"I'm in here!" Scrappy called back from inside the seat.
Shaggy opened the seat and let the pup out.
"Thanks a lot, Shaggy," Scrappy thanked.
"Like it's too dark to see anything down here," said Shaggy.
Fred, Daphne, and Velma were searching the projector room above.
"Maybe we're looking all the wrong places," Velma thought.
"Hey Fred!" Shaggy called from below.
"What it is, Shag?" Fred called down.
"Can you like find a light switch up there? We can't see a thing down here," Shaggy requested.
"Sure. Hold on," said Fred.
Daphne was a set of switches looking for one to turn the lights on down in the theater.
"Let's see. One of these should turn them on," she thought.
She tried the first switch which instead turned the projector on.
"Wrong switch, Daphne," Shaggy called up.
Scooby turned to the screen and was instantly frozen in terror.
"Ripe!" he cried.
"Scooby-Doo, what's up with you?" Shaggy asked.
Scooby referred to the screen where Spring-Heeled Jack was on stage, fully exposed from the projector's light. He snarled maniacally at the trio.
"ZOINKS!" Shaggy cried.
The other three above witnessed the fiend onstage themselves.
"It's Spring-Heeled Jack!" said Fred.
The fiend snarled again but Scrappy wasn't the least bit intimidated.
"There you are, you big meanie! Come over here and get a taste of puppy power!" Scrappy swaggered.
"Like not the time to act the hero, Scrappy. Run!" said Shaggy grabbing Scrappy and running away.
Fred, Daphne, and Velma exitted the projector room and fled themselves. Scooby, however, was stuck in the gum he stepped in, tripped, and fell into more gum, getting him stuck to the floor and left behind.
"Ripe!" Scooby panicked as Spring-Heeled Jack approached. He hollered, "RAGGY! RAPPY!"
"We forgot Scooby!" Shaggy realized.
"Hold on, uncle Scooby! We'll save you!" said Scrappy.
"Rold on?" Scooby asked as if he even had a choice.
Shaggy and Scrappy pulled Scooby free from his gum trap and ran away. Spring-Heeled laughed and hopped after them.

The gang fled the theater with Spring-Heeled Jack giving chase. The Deviants just finished searching the photo shop when they saw the gang on the other side.
"Hey look. There's Scooby and the gang," said Andrew.
They saw the gang run past.
"And there they go," said Angie.
Spring-Heeled Jack followed after them, hopping and laughing while in pursuit.
"¡Hijole! I'm dreaming!" Rod said in shock.
"Spring-Heeled Jack?" said Adam.
"They're in trouble! After them!" Andrew said.
The Deviants hop onto their carts and drive after the gang and Spring-Heeled Jack, leading into the classic chase montage.

"Love the World" by Austin Roberts
Montage: Spring-Heeled Jack hops after the gang with Scooby carrying Scrappy, who was throwing punches wanting to tangle with the fiend. The chase circles around a water fountain as the Deviants approach at full speed. However, they were going so fast that when they hit the brakes, they knocked the gang and Jack into the fountain. Enraged, Jack growls at the gang who get up and flee. Except Scrappy who wants to stay and fight. Scooby returns to retrieve his nephew and Jack follows. The Deviants follow Jack. Fred, Daphne, and Velma run up the up-going escalator while Scooby and Shaggy run on the down-going escalator not getting anywhere. This allows Jack to reach them without any effort. Seeing their friends in danger, Fred, Daphne, and Velma drop a trash barrel down the escalator. The Deviants blow their whistles signalling Shaggy, Scooby, and Scrappy to look out. The trio drops and the barrel hits Jack. This allows the three to escape on the right escalator. Jack comes to and makes a jump up to the second floor after them. The Deviants follow by driving their carts up the escalator. The Deviants drive toward Jack to ram him but he avoids them by leaping over them and escaping. He follows the gang into an ice cream shop. Shaggy, Scooby, and Scrappy activate the ice cream machines, covering the whole floor with a slippery mess. Jack looses his footing and crashes. However, the Deviants also slip and lose control of their carts, crashing into Jack, prompting the gang to cringe in horror. The gang gets away as Jack growls at the Deviants for their interference. He hops away with the Deviants following. Everyone now runs from store to store in place of the traditional door gag. After it gets old, the Deviants stop in the middle of it all while the Mystery Inc. Gang and Jack continue to run around with the Deviants just watching in annoyance. Angie blows her whistle to cease the door to door chase and everyone assembles, even Spring-Heeled Jack. Everyone gets back into the swing of things with the chase now resuming through the mall again. This leads into a toy store where the gang split up and hide. Shaggy, Scooby, and Scrappy hide by placing their heads in a collecting of stuffed animals. Jack walks right past them but then stops and turns back at them, seeing through their trick. She scratches at them with his metal claws but luckily they escaped in time before being torned like the dolls. The trio escapes on pogo-sticks with Jack hopping along with them. The Deviants arrive and see them in trouble. Adam pushes a scateboard which rolls underneath Jack's feet, rolling him out of the store and into the elevator. Rod drives over to it and pushes the basement buttont to send him down. Before Jack could escape, the doors close and the elevator takes Jake down as Rod waves goodbye to him.

"Nice slip!" Scrappy complimented.
"Not so nice a slip at the ice cream shop," said Angie.
"Yeah, like sorry about that," Shaggy apologized.
"At least he's gone for now," said Daphne.
Scooby found a dropped security card on and the floor and picked it up.
"What do you have there, Scooby?" Adam asked.
"It's a security card," said Andrew.
"Did we drop that?" Angie asked.
"I still have mine," said Rod holding his up.
"Me too," said Andrew.
"I have mine," said Adam.
"So do I," said Angie.
"It must be yours, Fritz," Rod thought.
"Fred. And I have the one you gave us," Fred stated holding out their own card.
"Then like, where'd this one come from?" Shaggy wondered.
"Could've sworn you only gave us one," said Daphne.
"I did," Adam claimed.
Velma pondered,
"Another security card? Sounds suspicious to me. It could be another clue."
Angie took the card and said,
"These cards allow the guards to access the stores while disabling the security system to avoid triggering the alarms. Either one of the day shift guards lost it or someone else was using it."
"Like maybe someone who's been in the hardware store?" Scrappy thought.
"You saw someone there?" Andrew asked.
"No. But there was a tool set that had been opened and a glass cutter was missing from it," said velma.
"A glass cutter and a security card? That doesn't add up," Rod thought.
"Unless... you think Spring-Heeled Jack used them to get in Westfield London?" Adam assumed.
"He couldn't have. He entered through the air duct," said Fred.
Angie put the extra card away and said,
"Then this is another case. But it'll have to wait."
Just then, the elevator came back up and Spring-Heeled Jack stepped out of it. Now he was really angry.
"The Jack's back!" said Rod.
"And like he's hopping mad now!" said Shaggy.
"Everybody run!" said Fred.
"Please. We've got him outnumbered. What's he going to do?" Adam bluffed.
That's when Jack held up his metal claws threatening to shred them to pieces. Adam responded,
"On second thought."
The gang ran in one direction while the Deviants drove away in the other. This time Jack followed after the Deviants.
"I hear him behind us," Andrew said hearing Jack's bouncing.
But he turned and saw that Jack was gone.
"He vanished," Andrew said.
But then Jack came falling down on Rod and Angie's cart causing Rod to lose control.
"Rod!" Adam cried.
"Angie!" Andrew shouted.
"Get off the cart, Jack!" Rod ordered.
"No hitch-hiking," said Angie.
Rod swerved left and right trying to regain control of the cart. All the flailing around threw him, Angie, and Jack off as the cart drove off on it's own into the mall.
"Duncan's really going to be mad at us now," Angie thought.
"Not as mad as this guy is," Rod said referring to the furious Jack.
Adam drove into Jack, bumping him away before he could get to Rod and Angie.
"Hop on," Andrew told them.
"All four of us together?" Angie questioned.
"Would you rather us get torn to shreds?" Rod reasoned.
The two hopped onto Adam and Andrew's cart and drove away with Jack giving chase.

The Deviants fled back into the photo shop.
"We're back in photo store. What are we doing here?" Rod questioned.
"Quiet. We'll try to lose him," said Adam.
The Deviants hid as Spring-Heeled Jack entered to search for them. Rod suddenly noticed that the video cameras on display were filming them and showing them on the monitors everywhere allowing Jack to locate them much easier.
"We'll try to lose him. On camera. It's so brilliant! Someone give this genius a medal!" Rod snarked.
Jack poked out from out nowhere, catching the Deviants by surprise.
"Not the time to be a smart aleck, Rod. Run!" said Andrew.
The Deviants fled into the photo shoot room and hid along the wall. Jack entered looking around for them, not seeing them behind him. Angie saw the cameras set up everywhere and that gave her an idea. She instructed the boys to follow her. When they were set, Angie called,
"Hey Kangaroo Jack!"
"Huh?" Jack said turning around.
The Deviants flashed the cameras at him, blinding him with the flashing lights, which allowed them to escape the shop.
"Hurry up! We'll lock him in," said Adam.
Andrew used his card to lock the store and seal Jack inside.
"We got him trapped now. He's not getting out there," Andrew thought.
"Unless he... goes through the vent," said Angie.
And right on time, Spring-Heeled Jack emerged from the air vent above laughing at their futile attempt to trap him.
"He went through the stupid vent. Your ideas work so well, Adam," Rod remarked snidely again.
The Deviants ran away again. This time they hurried into the elevator and took it to the second floor. But right when they stepped out, Jack managed to jump to the floor beating them there. They went back inside and took the elevator back down. But Jack just jumped back down to meet up with them again. The process went on again and again with Jack appearing before them each time. This time, however, the Deviants reentered the elevator but didn't press any buttons, fooling Jack into jumping down to the bottom floor while they escaped onto the top floor. Jack groaned in annoyance, jumped up to the top floor, and followed them.

Meanwhile, the Mystery Inc. Gang were finally able to catch a rest while Jack was occupied by the Deviants.
"So far so good. Haven't run into that spring-loaded creep again," said Fred.
"I just the others are okay," Daphne hoped.
Shaggy sat on a bench to rest himself from all that running around.
"Finally. I could use a rest. All these mysteries we solves can keep a guy in shape. Like who needs exercise?" he said in exhaustion.
There was something shiny underneath the bench Shaggy was sitting on which Scrappy noticed.
"Hey, what's this?" he wondered.
He picked it up, showed it to his uncle, and said,
"Look what I found, uncle Scooby."
"Huh?" Scooby replied.
"What's that, Scrappy?" Shaggy asked.
Scrappy gave it to Shaggy to see.
"Wow! Hey gang, look what Scrappy found!" Shaggy called.
It was a badge. A security officer badge.
"It's a badge," said Fred.
"Just like the ones the Deviants wear," said Velma.
"One of them must've lost it," Daphne thought.
The gang heard the sound of running footsteps which were the Deviants coming this way.
"And speak of the devil," said Scrappy.
The Deviants turned the corner and the gang reached out and pulled them into the store. Spring-Heeled Jack hopped right past them, having been given the slip.
"Thanks a lot, guys," Adam thanked.
"But take it easy. Don't wrinkle the uniform," said Andrew.
The gang released them.
"Are you guys okay?" Fred asked.
"We're good Freeman. If you enjoy being chased by a laughing, caped freak of nature," said Rod.
"Fred," Fred corrected.
"My name's Rod," Rod corrected back.
"Scrappy found something that might belong to one of you," Shaggy said holding out the badge.
"That's a badge," Adam said taking it.
"Is it yours?" Velma asked.
"It's not mine. I'm wearing mine," Adam said showing his.
"It's not mine either," said Andrew.
"Or mine," said Angie.
"I have mine too," said Rod.
"Then it's not either one of yours?" Daphne asked.
"We're not allowed to take them off. Heck, even a badge just touching the ground would get you fired as that's seen as an insult," Rod claimed.
"Besides, this isn't a badge for either of us to wear," said Adam.
"It isn't?" Shaggy asked.
"No. Look," Adam said showing them the badge and comparing it to his own telling them, "This badge says 'Chief of Security.' Only the guards in charge can wear these badges. That way it'd be easier to identify them as the top guards."
"We've just started working. We wouldn't be able to wear those kind of badges," Angie stated.
"Then if it's not yours... could that be our next clue?" Scrappy wondered.
"You might be onto something, Scrappy. It could be a clue," Fred thought.
But before they could ponder on the subject any further, Spring-Heeled Jack appeared in front of them and snarled.
"Zoinks! It's the caped man able to leap tall buildings in a single bound!" Shaggy exclaimed.
"Now let us leave faster than a speeding bullet," Andrew suggested.
The gang and Deviants ran away and once again Scrappy stayed behind to fight.
"Bring it on, you big bully. My puppy punch is more powerful than a locomotive," Scrappy boasted.
"And you're more insane than a loco mutt. Come on!" Rod said taking Scrappy away.

Jack was again in pursuit of his enemies. The chase lead them onto the bottom floor and followed up with a game of hide n seek with everyone popping their heads up here and there from behind everything. This ended with everyone poking their heads out from behind the water fountain. Jack's head was at the very top and laughed devilishly.
"Hey Shaggy? What was that 'Z' word you say again?" Andrew asked.
"Zoinks?" Shaggy answered.
"Thanks. Zoinks!" Andrew thanked and exclaimed.
Every ran away again. But this time, Jack's pursuit was cut short when Rod and Angie's runaway cart came from out of nowhere, taking Jack with it. The cart drove off into the unknown with Jack hanging onto it.
"Phew. That was lucky," Angie thought.
"But where'd that..." Daphne started questioning until Rod cut her off telling her,
"Don't ask."
Scooby was sniffing something on the floor. The spot Jack was right when the cart bumped him. He took it over to his friends.
"Look what Scooby found," said Velma.
He gave to her.
"It looks like a brooch," Velma confirmed.
"Wow! Look at all those jewels!" said Scrappy.
"It's beautiful!" Daphne added.
But it wasn't just any brooch. The Deviants immediately recognized it.
"That's no ordinary brooch," said Adam.
Velma handed it too him for examination.
"Look guys," Adam said showing it to his friends.
"That's the same exact rare, valuable Indian brooch from Mr. Hudson the Jeweler's store!" Angie confirmed.
"Yeah. That's it alright. I never forgot it," said Andrew.
"Mr. Hudson was very concerned for the safety of that brooch," Rod added.
"Spring-Heeled Jack must've dropped it," Fred assumed.
"It's got to be another clue," said Shaggy.
"Nice going, uncle Scooby," Scrappy flattered.
"Well, Scooby-Doo!" Scooby cheered happily.
"But it still doesn't make any sense. Four different clues that just don't add up," Fred thought.
The Deviants, however, were totally quiet piecing together the four clues. Three which they were very familiar with.
"My friends and I think otherwise, Fred," said Andrew.
"You do?" Fred asked.
"A glass cutter," Andrew listed.
"Security card," Adam added.
"Security badge," said Angie.
"A brooch," said Rod.
"Are you guys assuming what I'm assuming?" Andrew asked his friends.
"We assume that we assume what you're assuming, Andrew," said Rod.
"And I'm assuming that I'm confused," said Shaggy who was unable to keep up with the Deviants.
"Me roo," said Scooby.
"I'd assume you guys have a hunch?" Velma asked.
"No. We have an assumption," Adam replied.
"There it goes again," Shaggy said getting even more confused.
"But in order to confirm our assumption, we'd like to get up close and personal with Mr. Spring-Heeled Jack," Angie proclaimed.

It was now time for the traditional part of any mystery: the trap. The Deviants were laying out sheets of sticky fly paper. Andrew let out a yawn.
"Hopefully we get this guy before I fall asleep," he said.
"I'm tired too. How do you guys do these things every night?" Rod asked the gang.
"Years of experience," said Fred.
"Feels like we've been doing the same old thing for 46 years straight," Shaggy referenced.
The fly paper was all set in place.
"Bueno. You wanna explain another one of your ideas with us, Adam?" Rod asked.
"Actually, this was your idea, Rod," Adam corrected.
"It's very easy to point fingers, Adam," Rod said, rubbing it off.
"There's nothing much to explain. This is the stickiest fly paper there is," said Angie.
"Not even Jack will be able to get free when he steps onto this," Andrew claimed.
"It's so very simple," said Daphne.
"But effective," Velma figured.
"Now for the final touch," said Andrew.
"I know where this is going. You want some live bait to lure Spring-Heeled Jack here and are looking for a couple of spring chickens to help spring the trap on him," Shaggy guessed.
"That sprung to mind quick," Adam thought.
"Shaggy, in these moments we have to be ready to make sacrifices. Except us. We're too important," Rod lectured.
"Wow. That makes us feel a lot better," Shaggy groaned.
"Reah. A rot better," Scooby groaned as well.
"Think about it, uncle Scooby. If we capture that bully, you'll be regarded as a hero," Scrappy persuaded.
"A hero?" Scooby said suddenly fascinated by the thought.
The Deviants all yawned in tiredness.
"Preferably we'd like to wrap this up before morning," said Angie.
"But like how are we even supposed to lure that freak over here?" Shaggy questioned.
Adam gave him the brooch for bait.
"Here. Jack was carrying this brooch. If he sees you with it, that'll give him all the more reason to follow you," he said.
"And like all the more reason to pounce on us," Shaggy added.
"I'll go with you," Scrappy offered.
"And just for good luck, a couple of Scooby Snacks," Daphne said offering the trio some.
The three ate with delight. It was usually a guaranteed way to convince them to go through with the plan.
"Scooby-Doo!" the trio howled.
"Yuck!" the Deviants gagged in disgust. They still weren't over the fact that Shaggy enjoyed those kind of treats.
"If Jumping Jack wants that Indian brooch now, he'll have to confront us," Scrappy said cracking his knuckles.
Shaggy looked on the back of the brooch which read,
"Made in Rome. Huh. I didn't know Rome was in India."

Spring-Heeled Jack was on the prowl searching high and low for his foes. Just then he heard from Shaggy nearby,
"Wow! Look Scooby!"
"Wowwy!" Scooby gasped.
"Like a rare and valuable, very expensive Indian and/or Roman brooch," said Shaggy.
"What a lucky find!" said Scrappy.
"It must be worth a lot of money," said Shaggy.
"Millions!" said Scooby.
Their possession of the brooch prompted Jack to spring out at them, growling viciously.
"Right on target," said Shaggy as the trio fled.
Spring-Heeled Jack hopped after them in dedication to retrieve the lost brooch.

The rest of the gang and the Deviants were awaiting the trio's arrival. The Deviants were half-asleep already trying to stay awake for the trap.
"Hang in there, boys. Don't fall asleep," said Angie.
"What's taking so long?" Rod grumbled.
The gang started to hear footsteps coming by along with Jack's bouncing noises.
"I think I hear them coming," Daphne thought.
"It's them!" said Velma.
"Over here, Shaggy! Quick!" Fred called.
The trio turned the corner and Shaggy and Scrappy came to a halt and hid along the wall. Scooby, however, was unable to stop and slid his way toward the trap.
"Uncle Scooby!" Scrappy cried.
"Oh no! Scooby-Doo!" Shaggy shouted.
Shaggy and Scrappy tried to stop Scooby but were pulled along with him, stumbling into the sticky fly paper trap with no escape.
"Oh no!" Velma exclaimed.
"Well that was predictable," Fred thought.
Spring-Heeled Jack bounced into the scene and found the stuck trio, laughing at their misfortune. Now he had them right where he wanted them.
"Zoinks!" Shaggy exclaimed.
"Yipe!" Scooby yelped.
"Spring-Heeled Jack's got them!" said Velma.
"We have to do something to help them," said Daphne.
But the Deviants were too tired to even bother interfering, let alone even respond to the gang's request. However, by a complete unexpected stroke of luck, Rod and Angie's run away cart came along, bumping Jack from behind, knocking him into the trap along with the trio. The four were wadded up in a sticky, papery ball which rolled and crashed offscreen. The impact, immediately awakened the sleepy Deviants.
"What the heck was that?" said a startled Rod.
Shaggy, Scooby, Scrappy, and of course Spring-Heeled Jack were now stuck together, having crashed in the furniture store. At least the trio was safe and they captured Spring-Heeled Jack too. The gang and Deviants hurried to crash sight.
"Are you guys alright?" Adam asked.
"We've been better," Shaggy responded.
"But look what we've got," Scrappy referring to Jack who was struggling to get free.
"Spring-Heeled Jack, grounded," Rod quipped.
"And hey! Look at that," Andrew said referring to Jack's boots which had been removed and were stuck in the glue.
They had actual springs inside of them.
"Spring-loaded boots. So that's how he was able to jump so high," Velma presumed.
"You still got that brooch, Shag?" Fred asked.
"Yeah. It's in my right pocket," Shaggy said. But he was too stuck to reach it so Angie took it.
"Got it," she said.
"We'll get the authorities here on the double," Adam said.

After a quick call, the two policemen from the start of the story arrived as soon as they could.
"So glad you called us, kids," one of them said.
"Kids?" Rod questioned.
"My partner Myron and I have been hunting down this felon since last night," said the officer.
"You got that right, Winston," said his partner Myron. "But who is Spring-Heeled Jack really?"
"A good question, officer," said Fred.
The defeated Spring-Heeled Jack was still stuck in his sticky trap while Shaggy, Scooby, and Scrappy had been set free.
"May we have the honor, Fred?" Andrew requested.
"Be my guest," Fred allowed.
"Thanks. Because we have a words for this guy," Adam stated.
"Orale," Rod agreed.
"You're finished now, boss," Angie proclaimed as she unmasked Jack.
And there it was. The phony Spring-Heeled Jack was officially...
"Duncan!" the Deviants scolded.
"Duncan?" Daphne asked.
"He's our boss and Chief of Security himself," said Andrew.
"We knew it all along. All the clues added up to him. He was there when Mr. Hudson was telling us about the brooch," Adam claimed.
"Duncan, you've got some 'splaining to do," Rod told his employer.
Velma, however, wasn't so sure. She was studying Duncan very carefully.
"Hmm. I'm not fully convinced. Hang on a second," she said removing another mask.
This time the true culprit was, to everyone's surprise...
"Mr. Hudson?!" the Deviants gasped.
"Mr. Hudson?" the gangs questioned.
"Like I thought you said he was the jeweler," Shaggy claimed.
"He is. Why is he in this get-up?" Rod wondered.
"Mr. Hudson, why would you steal your own jewelry?" Angie interrogated.
"Stealing?" the officers asked.
"We can explain that," said Adam. "Mr. Hudson the jeweler runs a jewelry store in Westfield London. He told us about his prized possession which is this brooch."
Adam held it out for the cops to see.
"He was worried someone would steal it," said Rod.
"But he tried to steal it himself by sneaking in and using a security card he somehow got to gain access. While also attempting to frame Duncan for the crime by leaving his badge out for someone to find," Angie figured.
"But what about the glass cutter?" Scrappy asked.
"He must've used it to get into the display where the brooch was kept. To make it seem like someone had stolen it instead of just taking it himself," Andrew thought.
"And for this scheme, he used the legend of Spring-Heeled Jack to scare people away while he made off with the goods," Velma deduced.
"Even made himself as convincing as possible with spring-loaded boots," Scrappy added.
"It's starting to make sense now. He even said himself that he couldn't bare to part with the brooch," Rod claimed.
The angry Mr. Hudson responded,
"So what? It's my property! Stealing your own property's not against the law!"
"But sneaking into a mall and frameup is," officer Winston stated.
"And here we thought it was Duncan all the time," said Adam.
"It was supposed to be a fool-proof plan. And I would've gotten away with it too," Mr. Hudson started to accuse.
"Here it comes," Shaggy said expecting the usual.
"If it weren't for you meddling kids."
"Again with the kids!" said Rod.
"And your dumb dogs," Mr. Hudson added.
"Hey! Who you calling dumb, wiseguy? You're the one who got outplayed!" Scrappy retorted.
"Reasy there, Rappy," Scooby told his nephew pup.
The officers took the finished Mr. Hudson away and the brooch for evidence.
"We'll take Mr. Hudson downtown and lay him by the heels behind bars from now on," said Winston.
"He nor Spring-Heeled Jack will be terrorizing anyone anymore. Excellent job, kids," Myron congratulated.
"Kids!" Rod groaned a third time.
And thus, the mystery of Spring-Heeled Jack was put to an end and was now nothing more than a hoax.
"I knew it all along. There was never such a thing as Spring-Heeled Jack," said Velma.
"Though it was a good try making use of an urban legend," said Fred.
The Deviants were still very sleepy after that ongoing hunt in the night.
"We're going to have no trouble sleeping," Angie thought.
"I was hoping it was Duncan so we could tell him we quit the night shift," Andrew hoped.
"It'll have to wait till the morning, I guess," said Rod.
"Thanks a lot for your help, Fred," Adam thanked.
"We couldn't have done it without you and your friends, Adam," said Fred.
Everyone exchanged handshakes and words of congratulations for a job well done.
"Like good job, Adam."
"Good job, Shaggy."
"Good job, Andrew."
"Good job, Daphne."
"Good job, Angie."
"Good job, Velma."
"Good job, Rod."
"Good job, Alexander."
"Hey!" Scooby and Scrappy butted in.
"Good job, Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo!" everyone congratulated the canine duo.
The two held their heads up nobly in high esteem. And that was the end of that mystery.

Morning arrived and the mall opened up for the day. However, Mr. Hudson's Jewelers was closed down after last night's adventure. Because of Mr. Hudson's break-in, the Deviants had no choice but to let their boss Duncan know the truth that they swore to keep secret. How else were they going to explain?
"Well I have to admit, for your first time on the job, you did good. Not too shabby," Duncan thought.
"Thanks for understanding, Duncan," Rod thanked.
"Sorry we had to let Scooby and the gang in," Andrew apologized.
"And falsly accusing you of the crime," Adam added.
"No hard feelings?" Angie asked.
"Of course not. You've proven yourself to be competant enough. And as requested, you'll no longer have to work the night shift," Duncan assured.
"Thanks a lot, boss!" Rod thanked.
The Mystery Inc. Gang was there too. Shaggy and Scooby were having hot dogs from the stand nearby.
"I suppose I owe you thanks as well. Thanks a lot, kids," Duncan thanked the gang.
"Our pleasure sure," said Fred.
"Spring-Heeled Jack's still nothing but a myth. He never was real," said Velma.
"Thanks goodness," said Daphne.
"Well, you never know, gang," Scrappy thought.
Scooby and Shaggy returned with hot dogs for everyone.
"How about some hot dogs all around to celebrate? Covered all the way in chocolate sauce and smotherd in whipped cream," Shaggy announced.
"Yuck! No thanks, Shag," Fred denied.
"Then like more for us," said Shaggy.
He and Scooby munched down on the delectable hotdogs.
"Like, you Deviants want a bite?" Shaggy offered.
But the Deviants didn't respond. In fact, they weren't even around.
"Hey, where'd they go?" Daphne wondered.
"They're over there," Velma said.
The Deviants had fallen asleep in their carts after their night shift. Duncan wasn't happy about that.
"Hey! There's no sleeping on the job! Wake up!" Duncan ordered.
But the Deviants were too exhausted to wake up.
"Get up! What do you think I'm paying you for? Wake up already!" Duncan demanded still to no avail.
The Mystery Inc. Gang couldn't help but laugh.
"Not quite a couple of spring chickens, huh uncle Scooby?" Scrappy joked.
"Nope," Scooby agreed. Then to end the episode, he did his trademark howl, "Scooby-Dooby-Doo!"

Spring-Heeled Jack was only an urban legend that was taken advantage of. But whose to say he doesn't really exist? There's always a chance he could still be at large somewhere out there in London. Spring-Heeled Jack: real, myth, or hoax? That's probably a mystery that will forever remain unsolved.
