Round Zero: The Four Card Symbols
We're now nearing the end of this 2nd story arc, in which the 4th and final Card Suit will be unveiled. You've seen the buckle but in a vague way, but in the next few chapters you'll be given a glimpse of what's to come.
In this chapter you'll get to see a device that detects even stronger Digimons and Clow Beasts, so expect a lot of action…

At DDS, Principal Dan was pleased that Kyuu and Ryu are officially cleared of any wrong doings, and that the two teens have recovered from their ordeal. They have since gone to move on with their lives. Luckily the two Class Q members managed to hide the fact that that were mask Rider Beta and Gamma. During recess, Class C summoned Class Q, A, R and S members to the rooftop to unveil their new invention that was supplied to them by Karasuma.
"Okay, guys...Mr. Karasuma said that this contraction will enable us to detect any Digimon gone rogue, and hence we can get there before any untoward incident might occur. So we now present to you...the Digi-Tector!".
Miyako removed the cloth covering it, and the rest sweat-dropped when the so-called Digi-Tector turned out to be just an ordinary laptop.
"And I thought it was going to be more than just that…" Kazuma whined, and Kinta turned around to leave, but Kyo, Kyuu, Ryu and Kite peered closer to see that while it looked like an ordinary laptop, its appearance was sleeker, and that they saw the LCD was showing something to them.
"Okay, Inoue…show us why that thing deserves our attention…what does it do that we'll give a lot of importance to it." Kyo scoffed.
Miyako was about to say something when Ken and Koshiro entered the scene with smiles on their faces.
"Believe us, Kyo…Mr. Karasuma didn't send us the parts in vain…he really wanted to help us.".
Quite far from the group, Sakura was preoccupied over something. Kero-chan left a few days ago to go to England to see Eriol, hence she's on her own, and now she and Class S had no choice but to hang around with the rest of the DDS students since they're determined to find the Clow Beasts, and the female Cardcaptor was still wondering what kind of magical creatures she is facing since they seemingly resembled Clow Cards and that they could merge with the Digimons and that the F-4 were able to use them to power up the Card Suits.

Episode 49: Kuro Detekto
Somewhere within the border of Tokyo and Osaka, a construction firm are assessing how many steel bars are there as the building that they're working on is 50 percent complete, but were wondering where the rest of the steel bars go since last night there were 100 pieces, and now there are only 60 pieces left. The boss of the firm then summoned the construction workers to find out of any of them stole the pieces or not.
"No, boss. We'd never do something like that! It would take more than us workers to carry a loadful of those bars, and the trucks here aren't enough to carry so many of them."
One of the workers told the boss.
"If not, then how'd you explain this?? They couldn't just disappear like that! If I find out that…" the boss reiterated, but cut short his sermons when a construction worker cam out of the construction house running like a petrified geek.
"B-Boss!! I found where the bars went…but you won't believe this! A monster is eating the bars! Even the sledgehammer's been chewed off!". Everyone looked rather baffled at what they just heard, so the boss' assistant went inside the construction house to see that a huge hole was found, and when he looked down he saw that it was a monster, who is eating all of the steel bars used to construct a building. The monster turn out to be the Rhino Clow Beast, and saw the assistant and pulled him down, and began to strip him of his clothes and began to disembowel him. The others outside heard this and went inside, and saw what it was, but then another hole was made and they fell down. It was the Mole Clow Beast, and the two Clow Beast began to feast on their meals.
Back at DDS, the students went back at the rooftop, lunchtime. Miyako began to open up the Digi-Tector to test it, but nothing registered at the LCD, and wondered what was wrong. Kyuu then got an idea.
"Hey! Why not have one of your Digimons do something, and maybe their powers would trip it off!".
Members of Class C glanced at each other and decided to give it a try. "Okay, V-Mon…try evolving and maybe it might work." Daisuke suggested. V-Mon nodded and decided to give Kyuu's suggestion a shot.
- - - START DIGIMON EVOLVE SEQUENCE - - -
V-Mon…armor Digi-volve…
…to Fladramon!
- - - END DIGIMON EVOLVE SEQUENCE - - -
At that moment, the Digi-Tector began to beep and when the rest looked into the laptop's LCD, Fladramon's name was shown and where he was located. Everyone clapped and realized that Kyuu's words were the answer. Kyuu was being hugged by Class C.
"Ahh! Stop! Megu will think…".
As the rest were celebrating, Kyo opened a portable radio and heard the news about what just happened at Osaka area, and the others stopped cheering and began to look at the Digi-Tector. They were dismayed that the Clow Beast wasn't registered, but Kuniko thought that maybe it would work on a short distance. Takeru then thought about Yamato and called him using his cellphone and asked him to have Gabumon evolve. Eight minutes later, Garurumon's signal was picked, and the DDS students wondered why the Clow Beast wasn't being traced.
The bell rang and everyone decided to go back to their classrooms. Tomoyo was standing there when a thought hit her. Three hours later, she approached Miyako and Koshiro and asked them if she could borrow the Digi-Tector and take it home to see if she could do some upgrading, and they agreed, knowing that her family has some high-tech equipments.
At Atami prefecture, later that night, fake Rui Hanazawa managed to mimic the real Rui's emotions well enough not to arouse suspicion from the Hanazawa family, although he finds it a bit irritating how the family loks down on the middle-class people like the Domyouji family does.
Elsewhere, Sojiro Nishikado continues what he does best: flirting. He continues to charm his way to girls his age, and even boldy went to Sakura's house and flirted with her, but he was halted when Syaoran pointed his Chinese sword on the F-4 member's crotch while Touya pointed a kitchen knife on his neck, but the Kinomoto patriarch and akira Mimasaka told them to stop it and the playboy F-4 member left in a hurry and Akira apologized and left as well..
Tsukasa got a call from Tomoyo and was asked if he have encountered a Clow Beast, which he said no, and was told to be on the lookout since the monster can be moving from one place to another. After that he went to bed to rest.
At the Daidouji residence, Sakura came there after being called by Tomoyo, saying that there might be a way to activate the Digi-Tector's full capabilities in detecting a Clow Beast. She then suggested to use an electrical jolt to boost the laptop's power. Sakura reluctantly did, and it did received a jolt, and when they test it out, it detected a Clow Beast that was moving near the Tomoeda area. Tomoyo contacted the F-4 members and told them about it. Sojiro and Tsukasa jumped on their motorcycles and head off to Tomoeda, while Rui was a step ahead as he sensed the Clow Beast despite being far away.
At the undergound area, which is the sewers, the Rhino and Mole Clow Beasts are moving in a straight direction and are approaching drainage area where five hardhat workers are currently repairing a broken pipe. as they were about to leave, the Clow Beast got to them, and the workers creamed in terror.
Above the surface, Rui got there first and heard the screams and sended the two Clow Beasts. he mentally summoned his red belt buckle and it materializes onto his belly. He took out the CHANGE MANTIS card and swiped it onto his belt buckle after chanting "Henshin", and his body blurred and changed into Chalice. The three F-4 members arrived shortly and saw Chalice, and Sojiro was cautious since Chalice's appearance resmebles that of a Clow Beast, but Tsukasa said that he saw him twice and helped him saved Tsukushi.
"Why are you here?" the F-4 leader demanded. "I sensed Clow Beast within this area...". Their conversation was cut when a fountain of blood was showered out of the manhole, alarming the two F-4 members while Chalice was silent but unmoving. Tsukasa and Sojiro put on their CHANGE cards into their buckles and metallic belt straps enveloped their waists, and chanted "Henshin" while pulling the lever on their right sides, and their buckles said "TURN UP" and projection walls appeared from their belts (for Tsukasa, a blue projection with a Spade symbol, and for Sojiro a red one with a Diamond symbol). The three F-4 members dived into the manhole and when they landed they saw the two monsters munching away on the corpses.
"Those two..." the black and red armored F-4 member cusses, while Tsukasa gritted his teeth underneath his helmet.
"Let's get them!". The two Clow Beasts ran off while the F-4 members ran after them, and the chase leads to an open drainage that led them to the open lake, where Class S was waiting. Sakura had already activated the Star Staff and made her incantations.
"O' cards created by Clow Reed...discard your past appearance and transform...by my power I command you...as your new master...FREEZE!".
The Cardcaptor activated the Freeze card and moments later trapped the Rhino Clow Beast inside a freezing ice block while the Mole Clow Beast digged another hole and escaped. The Rhino Clow Beast freed his arms and puches his way out, but Chalice summoned his bow and took out his red buckle and attached to it, while a second buckle materializes and then he took out a card, which is the BIO PLANT, and swiped it onto the bow.
"BIO..."
A vine appeared from Chalice's arm and wraps around the Clow Beast's arms, while Blade took a card and swiped it onto his Blayrouser's card reader, which turn out to be the SLASH LIZARD card.
"SLASH..."
His Blayrouser flashed and the F-4 leader stabbed the monster, causing him to fly and collide against a cemented wall, weakening it. He took out a blank card and threw it against the Clow Beast, in which he is absorbed into the card. As Blade took it, he was surprised to see what it was like. The card belonged to the category of Clubs, the card being Club Four, with the name RUSH RHINOCEROS. Chalice silently left the scene while Blade, Garren and Class S were congratulating each other for the teamwork, while Sakura saw Chalice leaving, and she was bothered that she sensed something from him, as if she sensed a Clow Beast's aura enveloping him.
Meanwhile, akira was slightly envious that he didn't have a buckle of his own, but let it slide since he knew that it wasn't safe, given what he learned about what Isaka did to his compatriots.
By afternoon the next day, at the Domyouji residence, Kaede Donyouji was a bit peeved to see the F-4 and Class Q, C and R inside the living room eating their snacks and drinking their drinks after capturing the Rhino Clow Beast. She was displesed to see that Tsukushi and her younger brother were there, but she had no choice but to let them be.
During the course of their rather cheerful discussion, Tsukushi's younger brother, Susumu, saw the oval buckle and the CHANGE SPIDER card and grabs it and stares at it. While looking, the CHANGE SPIDER card glowed and Susumu was mesmerized and slowly went outside. A few minutes later, Kyuu and Kyo saw him outside holding the buckle and was about to insert the card. The F-4 saw this and were concerned.
"Shit! That kid might get crispy-fried if he attempts to transform! Stop him!" The younger Renjou screeched as he and the F-4 ran outside.
Meanwhile, Susumu had just nserted the card, but Kyo shoved him aside and dropped the card, but the buckle hit the ground and began to move by itself and instead of the center portion of buckle flipping, the left side of the front portion moved to the left, and it revealed the Club symbol and a purple projection wall emerged, and was about to hit Susumu when Akira grabbed him and tried to carry him out of the way while Kyuu pushed the two aside, but ended up being struck by the purple projection. Since Kyuu's DNA isn't compatible with the Spider Clow Beast's DNA, he ended up getting electrocuted and slumped to the ground. His clothes were burning and his body was steaming. Then a stray cat passed by and grabbed the buckle on its mouth and ran off.
Since the DDS students and the F-4 members were preoccupied to check on Kyuu, they didn't realized that the Club Buckle was taken away and are now bring Kyuu to a nearby hospital.

Looks like the detector worked, and is a success, but then they lost possession of the 4th suit's Club Buckle. Why did it moved by itself?
And now another card is sealed, within the Category of Clubs.
And you thought that akira Mimasaka was about to get the 4th card suit, but nstead Kyuu took the hit. And well...crispy fried!
Preview:
The Makino family are missing and Tsukasa and Rui must team up to find them, or else...
And be on the lookout as the final suit makes its debut, and it'll be scary...
