Velma’s Mysterious Halloween Mystery

Chapter 5
Interlude

Chapter Description: Velma visits with her "old" friends.

The morning light shined brightly through the nursery window on young Velma. She wore a Shirley Temple dress, tights, and a pair of buster-browns. Pulling a step stool over to Fred, Daphne, and Shaggy’s cribs to step up, she said "good morning" to them. The little babies were fine this morning and cooed a hello to Velma, aged 10.

“I don’t know if I have the antidote figured out yet, but I think I’m getting there. Just be patient a little while longer, okay?” Only Fred seemed to be following her and just as she thought his adult mind might still be in that little baby’s body, he scrunched up his face, made a bowel movement, and smiled happily.

“Jinkies! I don’t think their adult consciousness is present anymore. They’re probably just little babies now.” she thought to herself.

As she left, she alerted the nanny to Fred’s contribution to the conversation.
