Chapter 1: Meet the Weapons

Based off of the board game and movie, 'Clue' ©

New England 1970

A large black car is seen rolling up to Hill House. The gates to the front of the house open and the driver goes through them, up to the mansion that lay on the highest point on the property, which, mind you was guarded by two vicious dogs. As the car finds its way to the drive of the house a crash of lightning is seen; the car stops. John, the butler steps out of the car, holding in his hands a brown bag. The dogs growl at him and walk as far as they can towards him (because of the large chains holding them back). John casually walks up to them, putting his hand into the bag to pull out some meat for the dogs. When the meat is in sight, the dogs jump at him, and he throws it down to them. As the dogs begin to eat the meat they were given, John lets one of the chains for the dogs loose, and throws its piece of meat to the side of the house; the dog runs insanely around the corner and begins eating. Happy with what he had done, John began to walk towards the door, but stopped half way there. He looked at the bottom of his shoe, then looked at the dog angrily. He continued walking to the house, trying to clean his shoe as he went. He unlocked the door, and walked in, placed his coat in the closet and walked to the library. As he was walking to the library he past the lounge to his left and the study to his right, walking on he past the billiard room to his right then went to the library, which was on the right, across the hall from the dinning room. Upon entering the room he could hear the song "Shake, Rattle, And Roll" playing on the record player, he then saw Yvette the maid, a very beautiful French woman with very large………you-know-whats…(pronounced: Eevet…long e…) She was dancing along with the music and cleaning glasses. John walked over, turned off the record player, and said:

John: Is everything ready for the guests?

Yvette: We, Misure…**sniff**

John: good, they should be here any moment now…

(The bell rings in the hall)

John: see? I told you…**Walks out into the hall and opens the door to reveal Ringo**

(Yvette looks at her shoes to see if she had stepped in anything)

Ringo: `ello…

John: ah, you must be Colonial Starr, am I right?

Ringo: well, yes. But, you can call me-

John: please, you are not to reveal your first name, Mr. Starr…**takes his coat**

Ringo: Why?

John: You'll find out when the time is right, Sir…Come this way.

Ringo: okay, **sniffs and looks at his shoes**

(John escorts Ringo to the library where Yvette is poring him a glass of brandy)

John: This is Colonial Starr, **to Ringo** and this is Yvette.

(Ringo and Yvette smile)

John: Yvette, please give Mr. Starr anything he requires…**looks at Ringo** within reason, that is…

(John walks back into the hall and across the way to the kitchen; there he finds the cook, sharpening knifes, preparing for dinner.)

John: so, when will dinner be ready?

Cook: **takes the knifes she's sharpening and points it right at his face** dinner will be ready at 7:30…

John: ok……I-

(Door bell rings.)

John: pardon me…

(He walks to the front door and opens it to see Wufei.)

John: allow me to take your coat, Master…

Wufei: oh, you don't have to call me master!

John: well, your name IS Master Chang, after all.

Wufei: oh, I thought you were referring to me as your…umm…yeah…

John: …**puts Wufeis coat in the closet** follow me, Sir…**he walks, with Wufei close behind, to the library** Master Chang this is Yvette.

(Wufei looks at Yvette then looks away; Yvette does the same)

John: I see you know each other…

(There is a crash of lightning and it begins to rain)

John: But, anyway this is Colonial Starr.

Ringo: `Ello…

Wufei: hello…

John: …

(The doorbell rings)

John: excuse me….**he walks to the front door opens it and Paul is there standing in the rain** hello Sir, you must been Mr. McCartney!

Paul: yes, and, who are you?

John: oh, I'm just the butler, sir.

(The dog starts to walk toward Paul)

Paul: oh, I see.

John: Sit!!

(Paul immediately sits down on the bench next to the front door)

John: …no not you sir, the dog…

Paul: oh…**gets up**

John: this way Mr. McCartney. **he walks down to the library and takes Paul's coat and hat** please make yourself at home…

~The scene changes to Duo, who's car is stalled about a mile away from the house~

Duo: God Damn it…**kicks his car wheel as more rain begins to fall** just great…now how am I supposed to get there…

(A car is seen driving up, driven by George. Duo sees the car and then stands in the way of it, George is forced to stop)

George: Get out of the road!

Duo: …no…

George: fine! Where are you going?!

Duo: …**pulls out a letter** Hill House…off route 41!

George: really? That's where I'm going! Get in!

Duo: **gets in the car** what a strange coincidence, huh?

George: yeah, lemme see your letter…**duo gives him the letter** I got a letter like this…hmm…

Duo: ……ok…

George: …lets go…**gives him his letter back**

(They begin driving up to the house and when they reach it, the gates open and the car stops)

Duo: why isn't the car moving??

George: it's frightened…

Duo: ¬.¬;;

(George continues driving up the drive way and stops the car at the door they both get out and run to the door)

George: God, it's freezing out!

Duo: yeah, I know…**pulls out a pack of cigarettes** want one?

George: sure…**takes one and rings the doorbell while lighting it**

Duo: Damn it…..I lost my lighter…..

George: here **lights Duo's cigarette just as John opens the door**

John: …**looks around at the cars** Professor Harrison, Sir Maxwell, I didn't know you were acquainted!

Duo: we're not…

George: …where did you get that idea?

John: well, there are only 6 cars in the drive.

Duo: oh….well, my car broke down and…he picked me up…

George: …yeah…

John: well, ok…in that case, come in, let me take your coats and if you would please join the others in the library.

(They all walk to the library and say 'hello'…kind of…and not 2 minutes later the doorbell rang again. John opened the door and escorted Quatre to the library)

John: and this is Constable Winner.

Ringo: what did he win?

Quatre: …haha very funny…

Paul: …

Yvette: here you go misure. **hands Quatre a drink**

Quatre: …oh, thank you!

John: well, dinner should be ready soon! And as you were told as you came in; since you were told that only your last name shall be used, in order to protect who you really are.

(The cook hits the gong in the hall way, letting them know dinner is ready. Paul, startled by this, jumped, spilling his Champaign all over Quatre)

Paul: …sorry……I'm sort of accident prone…

Quatre: so I can see…

(They all walk into the dinning room across the hall)

John: you will find your names next your places,

(Everyone sits down in there given spots, and Ringo notices an empty seat)

Ringo: Is this seat for you?

John: hell, no!

Duo: that was uncalled for…

John: pardon my French, sir, but I am but a humble butler…

Ringo: and what exactly do you do?

John: I butle, sir…

Ringo: oh…then who is our host?

John: you will see shortly…

(Yvette brings out a bowl of soup, and they begin eating)

Duo: **slurp slurp slurp** mmmm, this is good! ^-^

All: **holding there spoons in mid air staring at Duo**

Duo: what?

All: oh nothing…

John: are we ready for main course?

Wufei: what about our host?

Yvette: **walking in carrying the main course** I will keep something warm for him.

George: what did you have in mind? **smiles**

Quatre: **eating** mmm! This is one of my favorite recipes!

John: …I know, Sir.

Quatre: well…I guess I'll start the talking, I mean I'm used to it, after all it is essential to host a party when you are the son of a-oh…that's right, were not supposed to say who we really are……

Ringo: son of a what?

Duo: bitch?

Quatre: …very funny…

George: you said you're used to hosting parties?

Quatre: yes,

Wufei: so you're a politician's son?

Quatre: yes, I am…

Duo: well I was damn close, now wasn't I?

Paul: **laughs**

George: considering how much you talk, Constable Winner, it seems to me that you may be afraid of silence. So are you?

Quatre: ye-NO! Why?

George: well, you may be suffering from something that we call pressure of speech

Duo: we? Are you a shrink?

George: yes, in a way but I don't practice…

Duo: practice makes perfect…

Paul: yeah, that's true, so what do you do now Professor?

George: well, I work for the United Nations.

Ringo: Jesus, another politician…

George: no, I work for a branch of the UN, W-H-O-the world health organization. And, you, Colonial Starr? Are you a real colonial?

Ringo: I am, WW II! What about you Maxwell?

Duo: me? I'd rather not say.

Quatre: ok, then where do you live?

Duo: …

Paul: I know who you are.

Duo: ?! h-how do you know who I am?

Paul: you live in Washington D.C.

Duo: How did you know that?

Paul: I live in Washington too.

Wufei: so do I. And so do you Constable,

Quatre: how did you know?

Wufei: I've seen you…although you may not of seen me…

Ringo: I live there too! Does anyone here not live in Washington D.C.?

George: I don't…

Paul: Yes, but you have a government job, so does anyone not make a living from the government one may or another?

(No one says anything)

Quatre: well, who do you work for Master Chang?

Wufei: a rather lazy man…

Paul: Lazy?

Wufei: yeah, he lies around on his back all day…

Ringo: really…

(The doorbell rings)

John: excuse me for a moment.

(John walks out to the hall once more and opens the front door)

John: Welcome, Mr. Yuy! You are eagerly awaited…**locks the door**

Heero: You locken` me in? I'll take the key…

John: over my dead body, sir.

Heero: hmph…***puts down a suit case**

John: what is in that bag, Mr. Yuy?

Heero: Surprises, my friend! Surprises!

(They both enter the dinning room and Heero sits in the empty seat. Yvette comes in with a plate of food for him)

Heero: no thanks, Yvette, I just ate.

Wufei: how did you know who she was?

Heero: we know each other, don't we Yvette? **attempts to put his hand up her skirt but she moves away**

Quatre: …John, why exactly, have we been brought here?

John: well, I do believe we all received a letter. Mine says, 'It will be to your advantage to be present on this date because a Mr. Yuy will bring an end to a long standing confidential and painful financial liability.' It is signed A Friend.

Paul: I received a similar letter…

Duo: so did we…**looks at George** didn't we?

Heero: I also received a letter…

John: pardon my curiosity Mr. Yuy but did yours say the same thing?

Heero: No.

John: I see…does any care for fruit, or dissert?

(Everyone pushes their plate away.)

John: ok, then let all please go to the study, then maybe our unknown host will reveal himself.

Duo: but I though Mr. Yuy was our host!

Everyone else: me too!

John: this way please…**walks to the study down the hall, with the other following** everyone please, take a seat!

(Paul and Duo sit in one of the couches; Wufei sits in the chair; Quatre and Ringo sit in the other couch; George just stands by the fire place; and Heero take the chair by the door; John walks over to the desk in the far corner of the room and picks up and large envelope that says: To: John Open this AFTER dinner. John opens the envelope and takes out the contents)

John: gentlemen I have been given instructions to tell you all what you have in common with each other-unless…you like to do the honors Mr. Yuy?

Heero: Why? Do they know me or somethin`?

John: I don't think so, you've never identified yourself…

Heero: **getting angry** this is a hoax! I suggest we all leave! **walks to the front door**

John: NO! Mr. Yuy! You cannot leave this house!

Heero: why not?

John: all the windows have bars, al the doors are locked!

Ringo: you can't hold us prisoner in here!

John: please! Return to the study! Everything will be explained!

(Everyone but Heero return to the study as told; so Heero runs past the study and the library to the conservatory (a type of green house) and picks up a pot to break the glass with)

John: **walks into the doorway** oh, you can't get out that way sir.

Heero: why not? It's only glass!

(suddenly the dog that John had let loose on the side of the house appeared and started barking at Heero)

Heero: …**drops the pot**

(John straitens his jacket and they both go back to the study)

John: Yvette, if you don't mind…

(Yvette looks at him, then leaves)

John: gentlemen, you all have one thing in common, and that is you're all being blackmailed!

Quatre: that's absurd! I've never done anything wrong in my life!

John: does anyone else wish to deny it?

(He pulses and looks around at everyone, no one says a word)

John: Well, **he picks up the papers on the table** on these papers is what you are being blackmailed for.

Ringo: don't you think you might spare us this humiliation?

John: I'm sorry…**he walks over to George and Duo goes and leans on the desk** Professor Harrison! You were once a doctor of medicine, helping clients with mental disorders, correct?

George: yes, but now I work for the United Nations!

John: well, your work has not changed. But, your license to practice has been lifted!

Duo: why? What did he do?

John: well, you know what doctors aren't allowed to do?

Duo: yeah…

John: well, he did…

Duo: oh…you naughty boy…

George: …

Quatre: disgusting!

John: are you making moral judgments, Constable?

Quatre: oh shut up!

John: well, lets see what you did, shall we? Hmmm, it says here that you gave bribes to thousands of innocent citizens on the USA just so your father could become Senator. Now what do say about that?

Duo: I'd say it stinks…

George: is that true?

Quatre: NO! It's a vicious lie!

John: I'm sure we're all glad to hear that. But you've been paying an unknown blackmailer for over a year now to keep that story out of the papers…

Quatre: …

Wufei: well, I don't blame you. I'm also being blackmailed for something I didn't do.

Everyone else but Duo: Me too!

Duo: not me…

John: you're not being blackmailed??

Duo: oh, I'm being blackmailed, but I did what I'm being blackmailed for.

Ringo: so what did you do?

Duo: well, I run a chain of small hotels that gives the visitor the company of a young lady for a short time…

George: really? **pulls out a little black book and a pen** what's the number?

Ringo: **laughs**

John: oh, you laugh do you Colonial?

Ringo: well, I…

John: this paper says that you were one of Sir Maxwell's clients!

Ringo: **walks over to Duo** that is not true! Tell them that that isn't true!

Duo: It's not true.

Ringo: **whispers to Duo** is it true?

Duo: no it's not true.

John: A double negative!

Ringo: you mean you have photographs?!

John: I'm afraid you gave yourself away…

Ringo: are you trying to make me look stupid in front of the other guests?

John: you don't need any help from me, sir…

Ringo: that's right! …*looks around** wait…

John: and you drive a very expencive car, for someone who lives on a colonial's pay!

Ringo: I don't! I came into money during the war, when I lost my mummy and daddy…

John: …

George: I don't blame you for visiting the house of girls, Colonial, most soldiers do, don't they?

John: …moving on…Master Chang!

Wufei: what?

John: your last boss, let's say, died under, shall we say mysterious reasons?

Wufei: …

Duo: ah, I see, that's why he was laying on his back…in his coffin…

Wufei: I didn't kill him…

John: then what happened to him?

Wufei: well, the bastard was always and overly optimistic man…he was also a lunatic; he was my master, trained me in the martial arts, he always said I was a bad student and threatened to kill me in public.

Duo: why would he wanna kill you in public?

John: I think he meant that he threatened in public to kill him.

Duo: oh…

John: **rolls eyes**

Wufei: I'd have to say it did come as a great shock to him when he died. Apparently he was found at home…his head had been cut off and ummmm…so had his…you know…

(Everyone sitting down crosses their legs)

Duo: so…when he died, did you care?

Wufei: Well…it's a mater of life after death…now that he's dead I have a life

John: Why do you say that?

Wufei: well, after he died I was promoted to the Master…

John: …well, this also says that your boss before that disappeared too.

Wufei: well, that was his job…he was a martial artist and an illusionist.

John: but he never reappeared!

Wufei: he wasn't a very good illusionist…

(George sits down next to Paul and Duo goes back to the desk, Ringo sits next to Quatre)

Paul: ……I'm not going to wait for John to unmask me **gets up**…I work as an undercover agent in Washington D.C., and Britain. And I am a homosexual…I fell no personal shame or guilt about this, but I must keep it a secret or I will lose my job on security grounds…thank you…**sits back down**

George: …well! **gets up** that just leaves Mr. Yuy…

John: oh haven't you guessed? He's the one blackmailing you all.

Ringo: You bastard! **gets up**

Heero: **gets up and punches Ringo in the nose. Then pokes him I the eyes and steps on his foot**

John: Mr. Yuy!

(Wufei walks over and kicks him right where it hurts…)

John: was that absolutely necessary Master Chang?

(They all get up and are about to jump on Heero and kill him…when…)

John: PLEASE! Gentlemen! Please just sit down! The police are coming! They will be here in about 45 minutes! You can turn Mr. Yuy over to them and all your troubles will be over! You've all admitted how he's been able to blackmail you! All you have to do is tell the police!

Heero: it's not that easy…you'll never tell the police…

John: I can, I have evidence in my possession and this conversation is being tape recorded!

(The scene changes to Yvette sitting in the Billiard room next door listening to the conversation then the scene switches back)

Paul: a point of order states that tape recordings are not in visible evidence!

Heero: **walks toward the door**

John: where are you going?

Heero: can't I just get my little bag from the hall?

(He walks out of the room, the returns holding a bag)

Heero: who can guess what's in here?

Duo: the evidence against us, no doubt…

Heero: **laughs evilly and hands then all black boxes each a different size and shape tied with a dark purple ribbon** open `em.

Duo: …why not…**opens it to reveal the CandleStick** A candlestick? …What's this for?

(Paul opens his and it's the Led Pipe. Wufei opens his to find the Rope. Quatre gets the Dagger. Ringo receives the Wrench. And George: the Gun)

Heero: in your hands, you each hold a lethal weapon…and if one of you kills John now, no one will ever know this meeting took place, he has the evidence against you. He has the key to the front door, humph, which he said would be opened over his dead body…so I suggest we take him up on that offer…**walks over to the light switch** now……**switches off the lights**
