Cardcaptorz Final Round
Chapter 1: The most beautiful princess in histories of Tomoeda

In a dark room, a young man named Li Syaoran came in. He says, “Geez, is sure dark! I guess the others haven’t come yet!” As he went in, he lighted the candle that was placed at the center of the room.

“Who’s there!?” a voice said. It was Syaoran’s fifth brother, Esau. Then five young men came out too. They are also Syaoran’s brothers, Takashi, Yuujin, Fuji, Shinji, and Satoshi.

“Hey, Syaoran! You’re kinda late!” said Takashi. Suddenly, a monster came, it growl deafeningly, it wanted to attack them.

“Let’s just take care of it!” said Yuujin.

After they have defeated it, the monster broke into pieces. Actually it was just a costume; it was only their adoptive father, Baku. “Hey, you guys! Take it easy!” said Baku breathlessly.

“Whew…it was just father ……” said Syaoran tiredly after the fight.

“Now, listen up, you scumbags!” said Baku. “Our ship is getting nearer into Tomoeda. The Silver Wings- daring thieves, ha…ha…that’s us… are going to kidnap Tomoeda’s princess, Tomoe Sakura, the heir to the throne. We’ll perform the show, ‘I Want to be your Canary’. Takashi will perform the main character, Sapphire. Of course, the real kidnappers will be Satoshi and Syaoran. Syaoran, got any problems?”

“Huh? Ah, no. We’re going to kidnap Princess Sakura, right?” said Syaoran doubtfully.

“You bet! We’re going to kidnap Tomoeda’s most beautiful princess in the histories!”

“We’re going to kidnap the babe-licious princess! I just can’t wait!” said Satoshi enthusiastically.

At night at Tomoeda’s royal palace...
The queen of Tomoeda, Queen Imite (the ugly and fat queen), was sitting on her throne. Princess Sakura is sitting on the other side, while Sasaki Touya, the highly respected general in Tomoeda, is standing beside her to protect her.

Then colorful fireworks burst into the sky. Queen Imite looked quite impressed. But Sakura doesn’t look happy or impressed at all, she looked miserable and worried. Finally, she stood up and talked to her mother, Queen Imite. “Mother, I am not feeling quite well. I need to go back and rest,” said Princess Sakura blankly.

“Ah, whatever! Just don’t interrupt while I am enjoying the show!” said Queen Imite crossly, waving her hand to dismiss Sakura.

In the show…
Syaoran was acting the friend of Sapphire (act by Takashi), he and Satoshi (act one of the castle’s general) were now playing the fighting scene. “Syaoran, just let Princess Emerald and Prince Phandaria married together! Then the world won’t have wars and hurt many innocent people!” said Satoshi uneasily. He wanted to prevent a battle with Syaoran, “I don’t want to fight with you, Syaoran!”

“No! If Prince Phandaria and Princess Emerald married together, what about Sapphire!? What do you know about love!? Do you know how much Sapphire has suffered!?” said Syaoran furiously.

“Humph! No matter what, I won’t let you peasants hanging around with her highness anymore! Hiyaaa!! Prepare to die!” said Satoshi in rage as he raised his false sword.

Then they played the fighting scene, which made Queen Imite, and the audiences impressed.

In the Knights of Crown’s changing room…
Bsh…bsh … dush…dush...Syaoran and Satoshi beat both the Knights of Crown up, they fainted…

“Heh…heh! This is really easy!” said Satoshi, frowning. “What are y’doing, Syaoran!? Y’aren’t changing!”

“Yeah! But this armor is too big and…the helmet…yuck…is kinda stink!” said Syaoran fussily.

“I know how you feel, Syaoran! See mine! Mine’s even worse than yours! The armor has cookies’ crumbs at the back, which is making me itchy! The boots are too big, the helmet is slimy…”

“Okay, okay! I got the picture!” said Syaoran off-handedly as he put the helmet on.

“Let’s start our plan! You’ll go to the royal chamber while I’ll be waiting here for you! Quick!!” said Satoshi abruptly.

Syaoran quickly went up to the stairs where the princess’ royal chamber placed. A white hooded girl came out from the royal chamber and accidentally ran into Syaoran. They both fell down. The girl quickly stood up to runaway, but Syaoran quickly blocked her way and started to examine her face.

“You do look familiar…haven’t we met?” said Syaoran curiously as he stared into her endearing face when he was circling her to examine carefully.

“I’m sorry, I’m sure that we haven’t met before,” said the mystery girl softly.

“But, I’m really sure that we’ve met before …” said Syaoran resolutely.

“I…I…I…I must go!” said the mystery girl nervously as she pushed Syaoran away.

“Hey, Syaoran! What took you so long!? I saw a pretty girl passed by! Man, she’s damn beautiful!” said Satoshi dreamily as he was pressing his hose to stop the nose bleeding.

“Why didn’t you stop her!? She’s Princess Sakura!!!” said Syaoran crossly. His hand was on his waist and he was frowning.

“Are you sure!? I……” before Satoshi could say anything, Syaoran had already grabbed his arm and sped up to catch the princess.

At the queen’s viewing centre, Queen Imite’s precious assistants, Miki and Niki quickly came to the queen’s viewing centre to bring urgent news…

“Your majesty! Your majesty! We’ve brought you some urgent news!” cried Miki peevishly.

“Some urgent news we’ve brought, your majesty!” said Niki as he was waving his about 9 inches long sleeves like a fowl.

As Miki and Niki were about to see the queen, Sasaki Touya, the highly respected general and the captain of the Knights of Crown quickly stopped them and said, “Hey you two! What do you think you’re doing!? You can’t interrupt the queen while her majesty is still enjoying the show!”

As Touya was scolding them, a stunningly pretty about 20 year-old woman came out from the side of the queen.

“Yes? What do you want, Miki and Niki? Maybe I can help you to send the message to her majesty,” said the gorgeous woman gently.

“Oh! How kind of you, General Mizuki! We’ve found out that the princess is missing!” said Miki hastily, swinging his arms.

"Okay, I’ll tell her majesty now!” said General Mizuki calmly.

As General Mizuki went beside the queen, Queen Imite said, “No interruption, Kaho! I’m enjoying the show now!”
“It’s about the princess, your majesty. She have gone missing in the palace,” said Kaho calmly.

“Oh, then both of you better find her back!” said Queen Imite hotly. “General Mizuki! General Sasaki!!”

“Yes, your majesty?” said Touya politely as he bowed to her.

“Go find the princess right now!” said the queen, “Don’t both of you dare to fail!!”

“At once, your majesty!” said both Touya and Kaho courteously.

At the fifth floor of the palace, near the Princess’ Chamber…
“Knights of Crown!! Line up at once!!” said Touya, but still no one heard him. “Assemble!!!!” said Touya as he threw his hot temper and stomped his feet like a mad man that can already shake up the whole palace.

“Yes, sir!!” said two Knights of Crown as they came without anything on except their underpants. They are John and Eddie.

“What happened to you two morons!?” said Touya angrily.

“We…um…we were attacked by two mystery men, captain!” said both of them.

“What!? Why are you two so useless!? Both of you don’t beware of anything!? You mean you can’t just fight back to capture them!? Do you know that the princess might be in great danger!!?” said Touya, outraged as he was stomping on the ground.

“………”

“What are both of you standing here for!? Go change and find the princess now!!!” said Touya furiously as both of them ran to the changing room to change.

Touya went off to continue his searching for the princess. He went to the library and asked the royal scholars and bishops, “Have you seen the princess?”

“No, we haven’t seen her highness today, general,” said the bishops and the scholars politely as they bowed to him.

Then, Touya went out from the palace, he went to the palace’s harbor…

“Have you seen the princess?” asked Touya to a Tomoeda’s soldier who secures the harbor (All Tomoeda’s soldiers are women, trained by General Mizuki Kaho).

“No, I haven’t seen the princess but a white hooded girl passed by,” said Jannie.

“Oh, thanks!” said Touya abruptly as he quickly continues his trail to find the princess.
Touya came to a tower to find Princess Sakura. He climbs and climbs and climbs, until he saw a knight of his and asked,“Have you seen the princess, Dexter?”

“No, I haven’t seen the princess. By the way, have you ordered all the Knights of Crown to find the princess, general?” asked Dexter swiftly.

“No. I’ve only found Eddie, John, Jason, Weimar, Terry and you! So, where are the other four?” said Touya grouchily.

“Oh! So captain, you’ve found our last year’s cannon’s competition’s victor, Eddie, the coward, John, our last year’s best warrior’s competition’s champion, Jason, the girls’ crazy that can tell all the names of the girls of the whole kingdom, Weimar, our famous novel writer, Terry and me, the famous creator, Dexter!!” said Dexter enthusiastically as Touya went off before he could said anything else to find the princess. Touya went to the top and saw Syaoran is chasing Princess Sakura!!

“Oh no, her highness is going to be kidnapped by that peasant!! Please do not fear, princess, your knights are coming over!!” said Touya anxiously.

At the top of another tower, Sakura was standing on the railing and was ready to jump down and smiling to Syaoran, and jumped down.

“Hey, no!!!” said Syaoran in his panicky tone as he dived towards the railing.

But Sakura was holding a wire swinging to the roof of the theater ship. “Why you!?” snarled Syaoran snappily as he took another wire and swung to the roof too.

Touya saw this incident, he also took a wire and wanted to swing towards the theater ship too, but his swinging skill was quite poor and he swung onto the wall of the theater ship instead into the ship and CRASH!!!

In the third floor of the theater ship where the music band is playing their music, Syaoran jumped down from the roof and landed steadily.

“Hmm.... I wonder where she went?” said Syaoran curiously as Sakura jumped down from the roof and accidentally bumped onto Syaoran, she quickly went off and ran away.

By the time Syaoran get up, she was gone.

“Hey, did you know where the hooded girl went?” asked Syaoran to a drum player.

“Oh, that appealing one! She went to the room there!” said the drum player as he pointed to the room at the end of the passageway. “Man, that was really a cutie!”

In the women’s changing room, Sakura rushed in and accidentally ran into a hot girl…

“Hey, you! What’cha think y’doing!?” snapped the girl (She is an actress) menacingly. “Do you know that y’ve ruined all my cosmetic and costume!? I needed to play the Princess Emerald part!!”

“Oh, my a-apologies, m-miss,” said Sakura nervously, avoiding to face the girl.

“Oh! You think that you can runaway from me for just apologizing!!” cried the girl furiously. Syaoran came in.

“Oh, Syaoran! What brings you here?” said the girl softly. (She likes Syaoran)

“Etoile, what’s wrong? I heard you shouting from far away!” said Syaoran, frowning.

“Oh, it’s nothing! Here, that girl behind me knocked me down and all my cosmetics and costume are ruined!!” cried Etoile irately.

“You! At last, I’ve found you!” said Syaoran happily to the princess.

“What’s so great about her, huh!? Syaoran, I thought you liked me!!” cried Etoile angrily.

“No, I think you’ve misunderstood!” said Syaoran as he wanted to catch Sakura but Etoile blocked him.

“But, I though so!!” sobbed Etoile pitiably.

“Etoile, let’s talk about this later… Whoa, don’t jump!!!” cried Syaoran, alarmed, because he saw Sakura jumped down to the stairs.

“Syaoran, I-“ said Etoile timidly.

“Get away, Etoile!” cried Syaoran as he pushed Etoile away from him and jumped down to catch up Sakura.

Syaoran and Sakura are playing a Tag-like game because Syaoran is panting after Sakura like a mad person, until they arrived at the theater ship’s meeting room whe Sakura stopped.

“Huff…huff…puff…puff…so, you give up huh?” said Syaoran breathlessly to Sakura.

Sakura turned around and said, “You are a kidnapper, right? Please, could you do me a favor? I wish to be kidnapped now, right away!”

“What? A person who wanted to be kidnapped right away? I can’t believe it! The plan is more easier than I thought!” he thought impishly.

“Yes, your highness! I will try my best to kidnapped you,” said Syaoran chivalrously as he kneeled down.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

“Princess Sakura, are you in there!? I’m General Sasaki Touya! Princess, please answer me!” Touya shouted anxiously as he was hammering the door.

“Hey, Syaoran! Have you capture the prin……!” said Satoshi as he came out from the dining room and he saw the appealing princess, which made him immediately fell in love with her. ‘WHOA!!”

“Yeah, here she is,” said Syaoran casually as Sakura hid behind Syaoran, frightened after Satoshi’s deafening ‘whoa’.

“Who is that?” said Sakura cautiously.

“He’s my sixth brother, Satoshi!” said Syaoran, frowning.

“You are the biggest?” asked Sakura curiously.

“No, I’m the smallest, the seventh brother,” said Syaoran crossly, “and I’m always being teased by them!”

“Wow!! She is beautiful!!” cried Satoshi, which is made Sakura scared.

“Princess!!” cried Touya in his top voice.

“Let’s go to the dining room, there’s an underground escape way!” said Esau hastily as he came out from the dining room.

Syaoran, Sakura, Esau and Satoshi quickly went into dining room, and jumped down into the underground escape way. After a few minutes Touya kicked off the door and came into the meeting room, but Syaoran and the others were gone.

“Oh, now where did they go!?” cried Touya, outraged.

“Sir, I know where they went!” said a mystery knight.

“Where!?” cried Touya anxiously.

The mystery knight kicked the door of the dining room.
