A Predictable Predicament

Chapter 4: The Love Boat
Tomoyo Daidouji was excited. She had her camera, two extra batteries, and an extra tape. She had her camo-Tshirt, and a pair of binoculars. In her pocket, she carried a pink cell-phone with Sakura's number on speed-dial, and she was ready to go.
When Sakura had called her that morning to explain her plan, she had been in shock. Who would have thought that Sakura Kinomoto could be so devious? But, nevertheless, Tomoyo's staunch sense of loyalty and a little bit of a humor hunger pulled her into the plan. Plan: Siamese, her own creative name. She closed and locked her apartment door, and turned around, ready to go complete her part of the mission, but she was stopped dead in her tracks when she saw who was leaning against the door frame.
"Eriol."
"At your service!" The dark haired boy bowed extravagantly. "And just where are you off to this afternoon?"
"Ummm...Nowhere?"
"Good, then, would you mind accompanying me to the fair at Penguin Park? I hear that it's wonderful." Tomoyo was torn. She knew that she had to go to the park anyway to update Sakura on the progress of the plan, but she didn't know if she would be spending as much time as she needed to on the task if she went with Eriol. She mulled over the decision for a good millisecond, and came up with an answer.
"Ok, Eriol, I'm going to go with you, but on one condition."
"Yes?"
"You have to help me with my job."
"Does it have anything to do with the plan Sakura was telling me about, and saying I should help you with?"
"Umm...that's a pretty good bet. Come on, let's go!" She pulled his arm, and they ran out of the building pell-mell.

Touya was still in shock. If he wasn't in shock, he probably would be furious, but he never expected his little sister to pull such a trick. A thing that Syaoran was very glad about. However, that didn't mean he wasn't going to try to do something. He had a sneaking suspicion that if he and Touya didn't come back to her house in the evening all 'chummy' (AN: I really like that word...so strange) then there would be multiple occurrences until they did. He cleared his throat.
"Hey, uh...Touya? Maybe we should...I dunno, go on a ride or something." Touya grunted. Syaoran took that as a 'yes', and dragged Touya over to the Whirly Gig Ride. Touya looked around, at the Ferris Wheel, avoiding having to look at the Whirly Gig, and then did a double take.
"What?"
"Nothing, I just thought I saw that British kid, and Tomoyo on the ride, but it probably wasn't them." Syaoran probed for Eriol's aura, but he couldn't sense anything.
"Alright then, why don't we just get on the ride. I just love this one, it goes upside down." At these words, Touya froze.
"U-u-", He gulped, "Upside down?"
"Yeah, and spins around. It will be good for a thrill." Touya's eyes opened wide, and he started to shake. "Hey, Touya, are you all right? Are you scared?"
"NO, you stupid gaki, I am not afraid!" And to prove his statement, dragged Syaoran to the line, not noticing that it wasn't the Whirly Gig sign that was above them. In fact, it was something very, very different.
:[]:
Now, when Touya had glanced up at the top of the ride, he really had seen Eriol and Tomoyo. Eriol saw his double take, and quickly masked his aura, and the two leaned back in the seat, avoiding Syaoran's gaze. Tomoyo peeked out over the rim of the gondola, and watched as Touya pulled Syaoran into a ride. She rubbed her eyes, and blinked, just to make sure she was seeing correctly. But there was no mistake.
She whipped out her cell, and speed dialed Sakura.
"Hello?"
"Saki, I think, we may be making some...progress, but I don't know exactly how this is going to turn out."
"What's going on?"
"Well, your brother just dragged Syaoran into the Swan Boat Tunnel, a.k.a., Lover's Lane." She heard a thump, and then hysterical laughter. She snapped the phone shut, and turned to Eriol. "Well, you heard what she said, we have to follow them everywhere." Eriol just smiled.

Sooo Sooooryyyy! I know this is also another week late, but, you know, I had to write this freakishly long article on being depressed, and it made me sad. And also took all my free time, which made me sad. I have also been trying to figure out which theater in WW is playing Troy, since I want to see it ASAP.
PS My birthday is tomorrow! I am getting OLD! Not really, but still. I hope you enjoyed the chapter, and I loved all my reviews! Again, they made my day.
PPS Is it weird to see 7 people from school out of school by accident? Within 30 seconds? And they weren't all together? And also, when a normal teenage girl with no backbone likes a guy, do they avoid him and blush, or steal his schedule from the main office and stalk him. Just checking the norm, this is PURELY hypothetical! Please say in your reviews.
