Card Captor Sakura Fan Fiction ❯ A Series of Unfortunate Fanfics--CCS MSTings ❯ The Clue Underground ( Chapter 1 )
Clowcardmastress's "The Clue Underground" MSTied by L-chan
L-chan's notes: This is my first MST. I appreciate Clowcardmastress giving me permission to MST her story. I hope she can understand my sense of humor and believe me when I say that this is all in good fun. It's nothing personal. And, besides, maybe some of my comments will help her become a better writer. It's good to have a little constructive criticism. But don't take things like this too seriously. Life's too short.
Disclaimer: Although Card Captor Sakura belongs to CLAMP, I occasionally like to borrow the characters for my own purposes, none of which involve making money.
~L-chan's House~
<L-chan greets her guests Sakura, Syaoran, Tomoyo, Meiling, Kero, and Yukito. A tall figure hangs back, apparently bracing himself for something.>
L-chan: Tooooooouya-kuuuuun! *glomp*
~Elsewhere~
Nakuru: I think some cheesy fangirl just stole my bit, Suppi.
Spinel: Who's Suppi?
~L-chan's House~
L-chan: Thanks for coming, everyone.
Yukito: Aren't you going to tell her to let go, To-ya?
Touya: She promised not to write any more sappy stories about me if I let her do this.
Yukito: Ah.
Touya: And, besides…she smells really good.
Meiling: So what's so terrible that you couldn't read it alone?
>>The Clue Underground
>>Author: Clowcardmastress
Sakura: She wishes.
Syaoran: Mastress?
L-chan: It's either master or mistress. Pick a gender and go with it.
Yukito: Yue asks that you please refrain from making genderist remarks.
L-chan: Oops, I forgot. I'm very sorry.
>> Chapter 1
Kero: Oh, no. Chapters.
Tomoyo: That's never a good sign.
>>It was 3:00 on the 4th of June,1999 in Japan.
Yukito: Wow. That is incredibly specific.
Touya: Ah, but where in Japan?
L-chan: Can we get latitude and longitude?
Meiling: Is this gonna be on the test?
>>"Sakura phone"called Mr.Alvon up the stairs.
Touya: <Dave> Aaaaaaaaaaalvoooooooooon!
Syaoran: What's a Sakura phone?
Tomoyo: Okaa-san's company makes those. They're pink and so kawaii!
L-chan: So we're using dub names? I think that should be "Avalon".
>>"Coming" replied Sakura.
>>When Sakura answered the phone she found that it was Tomoyo her best friend.
Yukito: Now it's a Tomoyo phone?
Sakura: The author mixed up our real names and the dub names. What a fan.
>>"Hi Tomoyo what's up?"asked Sakura
Sakura: Whaaaazzzzuuuuup?
Tomoyo: Whaaaazzzzuuuuup?
>>"Hi Sakura want to come over at 5:00 tonight?"asked Tomoyo
Syaoran: <Tomoyo> It's 3:02 right now, so that gives you one hour and fifty-eight minutes.
Kero: <Sakura> And you mean today, the 4th of June, 1999?
L-chan: Establishing the timeline must be very important to this story.
>>"Ok I will be over later, see ya"
>>"Bye Sakura"
>>"Who was that Sakura?" asked Kero
Kero: I chose her; I should know which Sakura it is.
Yukito: Sakura Shinjuugi?
Syaoran: Sakura Yamazaki?
Touya: Sakura Kuyiyagawa?
>>"It was Tomoyo,Kero"answered Sakura
Meiling: <Sakura> It's none of your business who I talk to on the phone.
>>Later that night at 4:50
Syaoran: Oh God, there is going to be a test.
Sakura: Should I be taking notes?
>>"be back before 8:00, its dangerous after dark in Japan"said Mr.Avlon
L-chan: It is?
Touya: Not in Tomoeda.
Syaoran: At least, not since Hiiragizawa left.
Yukito: What happened to Mr. Alvon?
Meiling: The part of Mr. Alvon will now be played by Mr. Avlon.
>>"Ok dad, see ya"said Sakura
>>She want over to Tomoyo's, but when she got there all the lights were off and the door was unlocked.
Kero: She "want" over?
>>"That's weird,Tomoyo knows that I was coming"Sakura thought.
Syaoran: <Tomoyo> But I said to come over at 5:00, and it's now 5:02. I couldn't wait around all day. The author's got us on a tight schedule.
>>As Sakura went in,
Yukito: The lights suddenly came on…
All: Surprise!
Sakura: <Sakura> Aw, you guys remembered!
>>the house was a mess.
L-chan: Must be the maid's day off.
Touya: <Sonomi> Good help is so hard to find.
>>"I better call Sayoran,
Meiling: <Sakura> I'll make him clean this up.
Syaoran: Who's Sayoran?
L-chan: I think that's you, sweetie.
>>I just hope that the phone still works"
Tomoyo: Why shouldn't the phone work?
Touya: <Sonomi> What do you mean the bill wasn't paid? Someone is so fired!
>>But before she could get to the phone she heard a weak cry for help, so she went to see where it was
>>coming from, then she went upstairs of the house. Then she
>>heard a loud bang outside, then she heard angery voices and again the cry for help was heard.
Kero: It's not just the house that's a mess.
Yukito: "Angery"?
>>"It sounds like it's coming from inside the house, but where is it?".
Touya: The calls are coming from inside the house!
L-chan: Didn't she just look everywhere?
Sakura: Hard to tell from that last paragraph.
>>As Sakura said this to her self, she heard the front door open and close and then the person who opened
>>the door came into veiw she saw it was....
Tomoyo: The Avon lady?
Meiling: The pizza guy?
Syaoran: Mitchell?
Yukito: The grammar police?
L-chan: The author, writing a self-insert fic?
Touya: I wouldn't talk, L-chan.
Kero: A chainsaw-wielding maniac?
Sakura: Hoe?!
>>Chapter 2
L-chan: "Star Wolf."
All: *singing* He tried to kill me with a forklift….
>>Sayoran
L-chan: Star wolf, little wolf. I was close.
>>"Sayoran what are you doing here?" asked Sakura.
Meiling: <Sayoran> Plot convenience. Cool, huh?
>>"I have something to ask you Sakura" Sayoran said
Syaoran: <Sayoran> Have you ever considered becoming an Amway distributor?
>>"What is it Sayoran"asked Sakura looking into deep amber eyes
L-chan: WAFF alert!
>>"Sakura will..."
Meiling: <Sayoran> …you help me get back together with Meiling?
Tomoyo: <Sayoran> …you ask Daidouji to make me some costumes, too?
Touya: <Sayoran> …you leave me alone? Your brother will kick my ass.
Syaoran: <Sayoran> …you tell your brother I could beat the crap out of him any day?
Touya: Watch it, gaki.
>>started Sayoran, but before he could finish,they both heard a door being shut and voices from upstairs in
>>the attic.
>>Voice#1 "Be quiet you or somone will hear you."
Sakura: Or worse, someone.
>>Voice#2 "Sorry boss,but no ones here but us."
Kero: Ah, the incompetent crooks routine! Always a crowd pleaser.
>>Voice#3 "My friends will find me ."
Yukito: That must be Tomoyo-chan.
>>Voice#1 "Shut up both of you."
Meiling: <Voice#2> No, you shut up!
Syaoran: <Voice#1> No, you shut up!
>>Voice#3 "You shoud listen to your self." she mumbled.
Sakura: And you "shoud" learn how to spell.
>>Voice#1 "What did you say?" he growled.
Touya: Hey, why all the anger? Let's all take a deep breath and go to our happy place.
>>Voice#3 "Nothing."
>>Then they heard a door being closed.
Yukito: Didn't they already hear the door being shut?
>>"Sakura that last voice sounded like Tomoyo."
>>I know Sayoran,
Sakura: Well, duh.
>>why don't we go up in the attic and see if we can find them."Sakura said to Sayoran.
Meiling: Must be a big attic.
L-chan: Where are the family bodyguards?
Touya: <Sonomi> What am I paying you people for?!
>>"But Sakura its already 7:30, we will came back tomorrow,o.k."
Syaoran: <Sayoran> She might be killed in the meantime, but we can't miss curfew.
>>"O.k Sayoran"said Sakura.
Sakura: <Sakura> It's not like we're that close, anyway.
Tomoyo: So no one's going to save me? Some friends.
Touya: Somehow, Sonomi-san will make this all Otou-san's fault.
>>THE NEXT DAY
Yukito: The kidnappers and Tomoyo were long gone, but at least Sakura had made it home on time.
>>As Sakura and Sayoran were walking up to the front steps of Tomoyo's house, Sakura saw four pairs of
>>footprints going around the house, Sayoran look there are
>>in the mud and they go right into the ice house.
Kero: That was clear as mud.
Touya: Ice house?
Tomoyo: That explains it. They're at the wrong house.
>>Chapter 3
Meiling: I don't think these chapter breaks are necessary.
Syaoran: They really fall in awkward places, don't they?
>>The ice house is a small bulding that had an earth floor and shelfs with piles of sawdust on them, the
>>floor was also covered with sawdust.
L-chan: No need to comment on the spelling errors.
Yukito: I've lost count.
Sakura: Does the author spend a lot of time in ice houses or something? This is the most description I've seen yet.
Meiling: Other than the obsessive timekeeping.
Touya: Sawdust? Is this an ice house or a lumber mill?
>>As Sakura was looking
>>around, Sayoran called to her,
>>"Sakura I found a note" Sayoran told her
Syaoran: <Sayoran> It's a B flat.
>>"What does it say Sayoran?" Sakura asked him.
>>"I don't know, I can't read it." said Sayoran,
L-chan: Boy, Tomoeda Elementary really needs to reevaluate their curriculum.
Touya: Sounds like someone needs to get hooked on phonics.
>>"It says tsudwas eht ni dnuof eb nac sllib rellod 0001,do you know what it says Sakura"asked Sayoran.
Sakura: <Sakura> It apparently says "tsudwas eht ni dnuof eb nac sllib rellod 0001."
Yukito: The old backwards message trick. A classic.
>>"No Sayoran I don't"answered Sakura.
Meiling: <Sakura> I go to Tomoeda, too, so I can't read either.
>>Later that day
>>Sakura was at home wathing T.V
Tomoyo: Everyone's real concerned about me, aren't they?
Kero: "Wathing"?
>>will Kero ate a chocolat chip cookie,
Sakura: Will he? I think the answer to that is "Duh."
Meiling: A special commemorative cookie from the film "Chocolat"?
Kero: Mmm, cookies. *flies off to the kitchen*
Yukito: Grab some for me, too.
Touya: Speaking of grabbing….
L-chan: Oops. Sorry, Touya-kun.
>>when a news bulliten came on,
>>Newsreporter"'Thousands of thousand dollar bills were stolen from Tokoyo bank earlier today, suspects
>>say that the man was in his thritys with short red and
>>brown, if you see this man pleaes call the poilce at once, thank you."
<L-chan makes a note to buy Clowcardmastress a dictionary.>
Syaoran: The suspects have identified the perpetrator? What the?
Sakura: The man has short red and brown what?
Meiling: Hmm, where was Terada-sensei when all this was going on?
Syaoran: <Terada> I wasn't with Sasaki-san. Really, I wasn't! Stop looking at me!
>>Sakura then turned th T.V off, and called Sayoran's house.
Tomoyo: <Sakura> Did I leave my "E" over there?
>>"Hello this is wei speaking."
Touya: <wei> We don't have your "E", but have you seen my capital "W"?
>>"Hi, is Sayoran there?"
Syaoran: <wei> There's no one here by that name.
>>"Sorry, master Sayoran when't over to Tomoyo's house."
Kero: *returns with cookies* Since when is "went" a contraction?
L-chan: And where did that "H" come from? The letters are running amuck!
>>"O.k, thanks."
Meiling: So, Syaoran is still at Daidouji-san's house while Kinomoto-san is home goofing off?
Tomoyo: Guess I know who my real friends are.
>>Sakura than hung up the phone and want over to Tomoyo's, she soon got there and found Sayoran.
Syaoran: <Sayoran> There you are. I thought you were just going to the bathroom.
>>"Sayoran let's go and look in the attic for some clues."
Tomoyo: If you find my cold, lifeless body, that's probably a clue.
<Sakura hugs Tomoyo.>
>>"O.k Sakura lets go."
Syaoran: <Sayoran> Hurry up. I'm starting to run out of punctuation marks.
>>Chapter 4
>>Sayoran and Sakura were looking in the attic when Sakura saw that the floor was covered in dust
Touya: <Sonomi> That's it. I'm replacing the whole staff.
>>except one part near the book case. Has Sakura pushed a piece
>>of wood that came out father then it's supposed to, the book case started to move away from the wall so
>>Sakura and Sayoran could see a space behind it.
Yukito: Was that a question, or did that happen?
Touya: Search me…. L-chan! Hands!
L-chan: But you said-
>>Sakura
>>then walked over to it, the space was seven feet tall with a little light in it, in the middle was a small star
>>shaped nacklace with a dimond in the center and on the
>>back it said:
>>To:Tomoyo Happy Brithday, Love: Mom.
Tomoyo: At least somebody loves me.
Meiling: Is Spell-Check really that hard to use?
>>"Look Sakura
Kero: <Sayoran> How much do you think we could get for this?
>>I found a little caperment full of letters
Touya: <Sayoran> Here's your "E" and Wei's "W"!
Sakura: What the heck is a caperment?
>>and they all say to: Mr.Shawn Tyler from:Mrs.Lilly Tyler,
Kero: Who?
Syaoran: What does this have to do with anything?
>>I guess Shawn Tyler is Tomoyo's dad and Lilly Tyler is her mom."
>>(A.N I don't know Tomoyo's mom and dads name or there last name so I am going to use these)
<Sakura holds up a sign reading "WRONG!">
<Tomoyo holds up a sign reading "NOT EVEN CLOSE!">
L-chan: Poor Sonomi-san.
>>Chapter5
>>The Next Day
Yukito: Why haven't they just called the police?
Meiling: Or used magic. Something!
>>"Sakura you have mail."called Mr.Avlon.
All: You've got mail!
L-chan: So Mr. Avlon is the AOL guy?
Touya: But what's he doing in our house?
>>"O.K dad"Sakura said
Kero: The author has officially run out of periods.
>>Sakura then opened the letter it said:
Tomoyo: "You may already be a winner!"
>>To: Sakura Avlon,
>>tsudwas eht ni dnuof eb nac sllib rellod s'0001 means 1000's dollar bills can be found in the sawdust, this
>>will be the anwser, from:Mrs.Lilly Tyler.
>>P.S, bring Tomoyo to Tokoyo apartments no.5.
Meiling: <Mrs. Tyler> If she's still alive, that is.
Syaoran: How the hell does she know what's going on?
L-chan: The role of Lilly Tyler will now be played by Kaho Mizuki.
Sakura: Does this mean that Mrs. Tyler is involved?
>>"This will solve the mystery, I got to call Sayoran and tell him about it.
Tomoyo: This solves nothing! I'm still missing!
>>Later that day
>>Sakura and Sayoran wen't back over to Tomoyo's house and went in the ice house and found the money
>>under the sawdust,
Yukito: Must have been an awfully big pile of sawdust.
Touya: It's an awfully big pile of something, all right.
>>"Look Sayoran under the biggest pile its a trap door"said Sakura
Kero: How convenient!
Sakura: Is this where the "underground" part comes in?
>>"Lets open it then Sakura" said Sayoran
Meiling: <Sakura> But it's already 7:30. We can come back tomorrow.
>>Sakura then opened the door and behind it was a large stone passage, it had a few lights in it, Sakura and
>>Sayoran made their way to the end of the passage and
>>found a big room that was brigtly lit,that had a table with a white sheet on it and what looked like a body
>>on the table and a cage like thing on the far left side of the
>>room,that had a crying girl about the age of 18,she had long black hair and what looked like blury purple
>>eyes.
Touya: I think somebody's been reading Poe.
L-chan: Or watching too many Ed Wood movies.
>>"Tomoyo"called out Sakura,"what happened"
Tomoyo: <Tomoyo> It took you so freaking long to find me that I've apparently aged six years!
>>Sayoran then let her out and she told them that aftershe called Sakura that two gays came
<Everyone looks at Touya and Yukito.>
Touya and Yukito: What?
>> and took them down in this room then they killed her father and was
>>going to kill her too but thats when they heard you coming and left.
Tomoyo: <Tomoyo> Although if they'd know that you weren't going to look for me, they might have stayed and killed me, too, so I guess you're forgiven for being such idiots!
<Sakura hugs Tomoyo.>
>>"Tomoyodo you know why they took you?"askedSayoran.
Meiling: <Tomoyo> They were after my space bar.
>>"Yes Sayoran I do my dad and I know that they were taking money."
Sakura: How?
Syaoran: <Clowcardmastress> That's not important.
Touya: <Xellos> That is a secret.
>>They then heard poilce sirens and doors being closed, they went back up and saw two poilce
>>cars one had the men that killed Mr.Tyler,
L-chan: "Poilce"?
Kero: Who called the police?
Sakura: And how did they know who did it?
Syaoran: <Clowcardmastress> That's not important!
Touya: <Xellos> That is a secret.
Yukito: I'm beginning to think that Mrs. Tyler was involved after all.
Meiling: <Mrs. Tyler> And I would have gotten away with it if it hadn't been for you meddling kids.
>>Tomoyo then went over and told the police what happened,
Syaoran: <Tomoyo> Actually, I videotaped the whole thing, if you want to see it.
Meiling: <Tomoyo> And can you arrest my friends for stupidity?
>>Sakura then remembered the letter,
Tomoyo: <Sakura> It's an "M"!
>>"Tomoyo" asked Sakura "do you know someone that lives in Tokoyo apartment no.5?"
L-chan: <Tomoyo> It's that horrible Mrs. Tyler who thinks she's my mother. Please don't take me there!
>>"Sakura my mom lives there, I'am going over there right now, thanks Sakura"said Tomoyo a little
>>happier.
Kero: <Tomoyo> I've been through a horrible ordeal, and my dad's dead, but oh, what a pretty day!
>>Tomoyo then left and Sakura turened to Sayoran,
Sakura: That sounds painful.
>>"Sayoran didn't you want to ask me something?" asked Sakura.
Syaoran: That was three days ago!
Meiling: <Sayoran> I was just wondering if you thought Meiling and I should have a summer or fall wedding.
>>Sayoran then turned red in the face
L-chan: It's an in-character moment at last!
All: Hooray!
<Syaoran turns red.>
>>and turened
Yukito: Ouch.
>>to look into Sakura's deep blue eyes
Tomoyo: <Sakura> How do you like my colored contact lenses?
>>and said "Sakura do you whant to be my girlfirend?".asked Sayoran
Kero: <Sakura> Only if you learn how to spell "want."
Tomoyo: <Sakura> And "girlfriend."
>>"Oh Sayoran yes I will be your girlfirend.
L-chan: <Sakura> We can be illiterate together!
Touya: So this whole story was set up just for a WAFF moment?
Yukito: I think it's sweet.
>>Deep amber and deep blue eyes looking into each other as they go for there first kiss together.
Kero: And the moment was spoiled by an author who can't spell, can't construct a proper sentence, and doesn't know what color Sakura's eyes are.
>>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The End?~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All: Yes!
>>O.K Sakura and the others are 18,Tomoyo lives with her dad.
Meiling: That information would have been helpful at the beginning of the story.
>>And pleaes R&R, I hope you like it, bye
Kero: And a spelling error right to the end.
Touya: At least she's consistent.
L-chan: Well, everyone?
Syaoran: I didn't really see anything that made this a CCS story. I mean, just change the names and it could have applied to any show.
L-chan: You're right. She didn't really get into the characters' personalities. It was a little generic.
Sakura: And shouldn't you be a fan to write a fan fiction? This person didn't even know everyone's names.
Tomoyo: I don't know what I did to deserve Clowcardmastress's hatred. Not only was I locked up and my "father" killed, but no one seemed too concerned.
Yukito: Overall, though, I didn't think this story was too painful.
Meiling: Uh oh, don't give her any ideas.
<L-chan laughs evilly.>
~~-~~
Until next time….
>>she told them that aftershe called Sakura that two gays came
