NaNo Cluedo
Chapter One Lunch had come and gone and everyone was back in the Study, writing like maniacs to try and beat Manchester and their evil Fossas leader. Though a few of them thought they stood no chance, with the Fossas gang thrashing the Lemurs. They were once again about to start another forty-five minute session when Burt Body stood up and called for everyone’s attention. "I am sorry to say that I have brought you all here under fall pretences," he said his voice a little sad. "Why are we here then?" Leyna asked, curious as to what the older man wanted them all for. "At the last write in, a week ago, my novel was wiped from my computer, all my back ups, everything to do with my Nano Novel was wiped from my computer," he said to his shocked guest. "Why are we here? Are we suspects?" Shaylee screeched. Burt nodded, "yes, you all were the only ones to turn up to the write in that day, I wish to find out which one of you deleted it all." he said, giving no clue as to what he Nano Novel Plot was about. "so we are here for you to find out which is the guilty party." Paul Plum said as he looked over his glasses that were perched on the end of his pointy nose. "yes, I know most of you are innocent in this, but I need to find out." Burt said, apologising to most of the room, except for the guilty one. "I understand, if it was mine I would be doing the same," Colonel Mustard agreed. "tha... than..." Burt started to say before he fell forwards onto his open laptop. Everyone jumped up from their seat and rushed to his side. Professor Plum was the first one to reach the man, and pressing his finger to Burt's wrist, he tried to feel for a pulse. "he is dead," he said, shocked. Gasps went around the room. "We need to find out who did it," Leyna said as she looked at the other guests." They Agreed. * * * The butler and the rest of the Mansions staff was gathered, and one always vouched for another, they were not the ones responsible for the death of their employer, Mr Burt Body. "Professor Plum, what do you think killed him?" Leyna asked the professor. "by what I can see on the body, I would say it was poison." he answered her. "thank you. I was in the study before lunch, the Butler was in the room with me and was also the one to take me to the dinning room where we ate, and I came back here with you all, so I am ruled out." Leyna said, clearing her own name first. "Mrs Pandora Peacock, why don't you tell us where you were before lunch, you all went off before lunch was served." she added as she looked at the camp cross dresser. "Of course sweetie," he... she... he smiled. Flashback Peacock "oh where oh where is that blasted toilet," Pandora said aloud to her... himself, as he walked through the corridors. He walked around a little more opening random doors in the hopes that behind one of them was the toilet he so desperately wanted to find. "finally," he yelled in joy as the door he opened revealed a very luxurious bathroom. "oh I wouldn’t mind a dip in that tub," he smiled to himself as he went over to the sink and took out his compact and started to powder his nose. "I do wish it would last a little longer." he mused to himself as he finished touching up his makeup. When he had finished he heard the dong tell one and all that lunch was severed, now all Pandora Peacock needed to do was to find the dining room. End Peacock Flashback "you were pondering your nose?" Leyna asked, a little unsure about what she was doing. Pandora look at her, "oh honey you need to learn all about that, the best this sweetie. Yes I was powdering my nose. I do need to touch up the makeup, now as to who killed Burt, ask little scarlet over there, Burt did turn the little hussy down, then again I think everyone does these days, she must be a bit desperate now, and no doubt after a little revenge." he told her. "thank you Pandora, and I will talk to her next." Leyna said looking thoughtful. * * * Leyna walked over to where Shaylee Scarlet was sitting, filing her nails once again, unlike the others in the room who were all worried. "Shaylee, can we talk?" Leyna asked as she went and sat opposite the attractive woman. "sure," she smiled as she chewed some bubblegum. "Can you tell me what you were doing before lunch?" Leyna asked her as she gritted her teeth against the irritating sound of someone chewing gum with an open mouth. "yeah, sure." she huffed a little. Flashback Scarlet "oh blast it all to hell and back," Shaylee shouted as she run through the endless maze of corridors. "where is the fucking toilet!" she screamed. She run down another corridor, seeing Colonel Mustard at the end of one corridor, going down some stairs. She rushed to try and catch her up, but she had disappeared. "Damn, I thought she might be able to help me." Shaylee sighed dramatically and turned around, there was only one method that may help her now, as she strode forwards like a woman on a mission to get the best make up. She came to the first door and opened it, "nope not the bathroom. Next time, I think I should ask." she grumbled as she moved from one door to another, opening each one. Finally on the nine door opening she found it. "oh this is lovely, I could soak in that for hours." she gaped as she looked at the large sunken tub in the middle of the room. End Scarlet Flashback "you were looking for the toilet?" Leyna asked her to make sure what she was hearing. Shaylee smiled at her in a way that made Leyna feel a little dumb, "yeah, toilet," "thank you," Leyna smiled at her, thinking through what she had been told. * * * Leyna stood up and left Shaylee Scarlet to her chewing and walked over to where Colonel Macaria Mustard, who was sat at the desk, typing at a furious pace. She sat down next to her and smiled, "Hello Colonel Mustard." "Leyna, my turn for the questions?" she asked the younger woman. Leyna smiled, "nothing much gets by you, does it colonel," "something did," she grumbled. "I need to know where you were before lunch." Leyna inquired. "very well," she answered. Flashback Mustard Macaria gritted her teeth as she wondered around the mansion, she needed to find the elusive Reverend Green. "where is the blasted man." she grumbled as she moved around the second floor of the mansion. She wandered through the maze of corridors, "oh thank you, stairs!" she almost cried when she found some stairs that she could go down. She had finally found somewhere where she could maybe find someone else in the maze that Mr Burt Body called a home. She saw Professor Plum heading towards the Kitchen, "oh I wonder what he needs?" Macaria asked herself as she walked towards the study again. End Mustard Flashback "you were trying to fin Reverend Green?" Leyna asked, needing confirmation. Macaria smiled, "yes, though I did not find him, but I did see Professor Plum going to the kitchen." she told the young woman. "right, thank you Macaria, that was very helpful." Leyna smiled as she looked around the others in the room, noting where each person was. * * * Leyna stood up and walked over to Professor Paul Plum, who was looking out of the window at the grey coloured skies above them, that threatened rain. She went over and sat down on the window seat. "Hello Professor," she said respectfully, he was a collage professor, and had helped her a little with her science paper that was due later that month. "Hello Leyna, mine turn I would say," he smiled at her. "yes sir, I just need you to tell me where you were before lunch?" she asked of him. "Of course," he said as he then started to tell her. Flashback Plum After being told that lunch would be served soon, professor plum needed to make sure that the cook knew that he would not eat meat. He walked out of the study and towards the kitchen. "Are you the cook?" he asked the middle aged woman that was slaving over a hot stove. "yes," she grouched. "oh good, I am hoping it would be alright for you to do something vegetarian for me, as I do not eat meat." he told her. She nodded and Paul left the woman to her work and went to the Library until lunch was served. End Plum Flashback "your vegetarian?" Leyna asked a little surprised. Professor Plum smiled, "yes I am, I was in the library for a little while, until lunch was severed, though I did have an odd feeling when I was around the kitchen, like there was someone in the shadows. I think I know why I had that feeling now." Leyna chuckled a little, "yes professor, I can understand about the feeling now. I spoke to the cook earlier and she did mention that you can in, though she was a little uneasy when we talked." * * * Leyna left Professor Plum to his cloud watching and went over the Reverend Green, the one that Colonel Macaria Mustard was trying to find before lunch, but was unable to. "Hello Reverend Green," Leyna greeted as she walked over to where he was sat in the comfortable leather chair and sat down in the smaller version opposite him. "Leyna my child," he smiled at her easily. "I just need to know where you were just before lunch?" she asked him, smiling back at the man. "Yes child," he said still smiling as he started to tell her. Flashback Green "Now was it left, or right to get to the library?" Reverend Galen Green asked himself as he walked down another long corridor and came to a crossroads. "we shall try left," he said to himself as he went left. He walked down the corridor a little and came to another left, right or straight ahead. "Oh Dear Lord guide me in the right direction." he said a little aspirated at not being able to find his way through the maze of corridors. Galen Green went to the right, walking along the corridor, he passed some stairs, hearing the mumble of someone nearby, he looked up and say Mrs White passing the top of the stairs. End Green Flashback "you got lost?" she asked him. "yes I am afraid I did, it is quiet a maze here." he answered. Leyna smiled, "yes I think so to," Leyna agreed with him. * * * There was only one person left that she had to talk to and the was the quiet Mrs Wendi White. Who looked as though she was sleeping in the nice cushioned chair that she had nabbed as her own in the Study. She sat down on the poufe and cleared her throat. "oh Leyna, you gave me a fright, what can I do for you?" she asked, putting her hand to her heart. "sorry Mrs White, I did not mean to," she said remorsefully. "I just need to know what you were doing and where you were before lunch?" she asked the elderly woman. "yes deary, of course you do," she smiled at the young girl and started to tell her. Flashback White "thank you Burt," She said as she then left the study and started for the stairs, "right, it was two lefts," she mumbled to herself as she started to walk. She went up the stairs and went left as soon as she reached the top. She passed by another set of stairs and carried on, waiting until she came to another crossroad and going left again, she opened the third door on the right and sighed happily, this was to be her bedroom for the night, and for now, as she needed and wanted a little nap. End White Flashback "I had a little nap, I only have about ten minutes but it helps me tremendously." she told the young girl. "Right, thanks Mrs White." Leyna Smiled. |
