Masked Singer Oneshot

Wildcard Seekers

Cow and Gazelle are trying to find the wildcard's secret Hideout.

It all starts when the TV turns on to see the season 5 opening after it shows the wildcards scene; the TV pauses and becomes a news channel. "Everyone knows the greatest hacker Cluedle-Doo, but the only thing that makes everyone curious is one of the gang members called 'The Wildcards'. A few years ago 'The Wildcards' kidnapped four people, unsure who the last victim was? Detectives are still figuring out the case!" The news reporter said. "During spring 2021, Nick Cannon went missing when the wildcards attacked the 5th competition and a few episodes later everyone found out Nick was their member. After their surrender, they retired from being a wildcard." The News reporter continued. "HOWEVER, during fall 2023 two competitors reported that they spotted a NEW wildcard in the area! The competitors described that they're three imposters among us! Unfortunately, these three tricksters are completely unknown!" The news reporter continued. "The only question is 'Have the Wildcards return?' and 'Are they here to.....get.....revenge?'" The news reporter ended.

Somewhere in the backstage where the competition began, Gazelle is walking around and noticing nobody is there. Gazelle hears a strange sound coming from a dark hallway. She stops and sees a big glowing green eyes in the hallway. Gazelle's face shows fear and wanting to run away, but it was too late. The mysterious figure attacks Gazelle. Suddenly, Gazelle wakes up screaming; and realizes it was only a nightmare. Sadly, Gazelle begins to cry. Someone opens her door to reveal Cow coming into her room. "Gazelle? Are you alright??" Cow worried. Cow sits next to her and hugs her. "I'm sorry Cow! I had that horrible nightmare again!!" Gazelle cried. Cow laid down next to her while hugging her. "Shhhhh, It's okay! You're safe with me!" Cow said softly. "Any luck on your invention?" Gazelle asked softly. "Yes actually! I managed to get everything ready! So tomorrow we'll be able to finally search for 'the wildcards!'" Cow answered. Gazelle smiled, then shows guilt. "Cow? Would it be possible if we found the wildcard who tried to kidnap me?" Gazelle asked. "Yes! There is no way someone else did this to you! And don't worry I won't let anything happen to you!" Cow said with confident. Gazelle smiles at Cow. "Do you want me to sleep with you this time? Because of the last few nights you tried to sleep, but ending up having the same nightmare over and over again?!" Cow asked. "Yes please!" Gazelle cried. Gazelle cuddles up next to Cow and slept peacefully.

The Next morning, Cow and Gazelle investigate the backstage. " I talked to one of the workers. They said 'someone came through the security door and then escaped out the window'. They also told me that when they were investigating they saw the 'Men in Black passed out on the ground and now they can't remember!'" Cow explained. Cow and Gazelle go outside to see the destruction on the window. Gazelle finds a cloth that smells like dill. Suddenly, the dill scented cloth gave her a flashback about when someone behind attacked her by using the dill scented cloth to try to make her faint, but failed. "I remembered someone trying to knock me out while I was being kidnapped!" Gazelle explains. Cow and Gazelle investigate the window, and found giant footprints to the donut shop. Cow and Gazelle open the door to see Donut working. "Hi, Fellas!" Donut said excitedly. While Gazelle orders something, Cow asked Donut 'If there was anything strange happened during fall 2023?'. "Actually no, but I am very curious about something! During last fall I notice three separate contestants happen to order the same donuts! Unfortunately, I don't remember what their name is, but I remembered a little about their personality, and what they look like." Donut answered. "During Group A, someone who was tall, large, green, and have bumps all over his body. He ordered a green sour donut, a blue sea salt, donut, and a cotton candy donut. While I was getting them ready, I've noticed he was talking to someone and been saying a lot of cuss words. Luckily, he wasn't mean towards me! During Group B, A woman who is blue, three tentacles, two on her sides, and one behind her, and she smells like she came from an ocean. She ordered the exact same order as the other one, but she was nice and calm, I think she was one of my friends who supported me, ever since 'my smile' died. And during Group C, same thing! a tall, large, except he's so fluffy!! And he super nice!! But yeah those were the three who came here." Donut described. Cow and Gazelle got their order and thanked donut. "Now we know there are three wildcards, we can find their location!" Gazelle said. "I know, but where? Donut said one of them smelled like they came out of the ocean. But which ocean? The Southern Sea where Mermaid and the other sea creatures are? Or the Northern Sea where Sea Queen, Diver, and Tiki are?" Cow said. Cow spotted a little blue cloth on the ground that smelled like ocean. Suddenly, Diver and his companion Octavia are walking while holding boxes. "Hey Diver! You're a master expert on oceans right? Can you smell this and know which sea it came from?" Cow asked. Diver puts down the boxes and takes off his helmet revealing a guy with black short wavy hair with blue highlights. He smelled the cloth at different ends. "This came from the Northern Sea, it smells like clear water, the smell of light sand and mimosas." Diver explained. Diver gives the cloth back to Cow, and puts his helmet on. Cow and Gazelle thanked Diver so much, and heads to the Northern side of the Masked Lands.

It took them 5 hours! (They couldn't take a train because it needed repairs). Cow and Gazelle made it to the Northern Beach and started to look around. But they can tell their close because Cow's tracker starts to go off faster. Cow spotted Tiki in his tiki stand and asked him if there was anything strange that happened in the beach. "Well actually yes! I saw two people talking about something, I don't remember what they were talking about, but they were fighting about something. While Tiki's talking to Cow, Gazelle remembered when Gazelle fighting Cow about the wildcards return and Gazelle thinking that Cow is overreacting and both walked away from each other. Gazelle bursts into tears and runs into the jungle. Cow sees Gazelle running away, he thanked Tiki and chased after Gazelle. The sky turns night time, Cow spots Gazelle on top of a wisteria tree and starts climbing. "Gazelle! What's wrong?!" Cow said. He reaches to the top and hugs Gazelle. "I'm sorry Cow. Do you remember when I fought you about the return of the wildcards during NFL night? I didn't mean those words that I said. I couldn't tell if they actually came back or what?!" Gazelle said. Cow hugs Gazelle super tight, but thought of something. "Do you remember when we first met?" Cow asked. "Yes?" Gazelle answered. "You said my name, when I was Jinxed! We started to talk and wanting to spend time more often! We decided to sneak out at night to go to the mall! But what we didn't realize was it was apocalypse night where the zombie ticklers tried to get us in the mall, and we were the only two who survived!" Cow explained. Cow and Gazelle laughed. "And I remembered your hilarious reaction! You were like 'WE'RE DEAD! WE'RE DEAD!! WE SURVIVED, BUT WE'RE DEAD!!!'"Gazelle said hilariously. Cow and Gazelle laughed hysterically. "And that's how we became friends!!" Cow laughed. "But all i'm saying is not only we're best friends, We're a team! We got each other's back! And don't let any dark memory or anyone take that away from you!" Cow said with confident. Gazelle cried with happiness and hugged Cow.

The next morning, Cow and Gazelle are sleeping and cuddling next to each other in the wisteria tree. Suddenly, Gazelle wakes up by the sound of the tracker going off rapidly. Gazelle quickly wakes up Cow and sees the tracker going off. Both of them duck down and see Cuddle Monster walking into the jungle. He passed the two and kept walking. Cow turns the tracker down and points at Cuddle Monster. "He's a Wildcard!" Cow whispered in shock. Both of them climbed down the tree and headed to the beach. They looked around, until Cow stepped on something metal, they look down and sees a strange handle on the sand. Cow pulls the handle and a secret passage way opens! Cow and Gazelle gets inside quickly before anyone sees them. They sneak downstairs and hears two people talking. Both of them hid in behind a bunch of boxes. Cow and Gazelle peeked and see Pickle and Sea Queen talking about their next plan. Cow and Gazelle listens to their plan, until the door opens to see Cuddle Monster holding a bag and naming the exact order of what Donut described. Suddenly, Cow accidently steps on the tracker, making a loud crazy sound! The wildcards turn to the boxes in fear. Then, Sea Queen uses her tentacles to grab Gazelle and Cow. Gazelle and Cow struggled to get out of her trap. "Well well well! If it isn't the two little detectives who tried to find our hideout!" Sea Queen said smiling evilly. Gazelle looks at Pickle in shock. "YOU!!!! YOU'RE THE ONE WHO TRIED TO KIDNAP ME!!" Gazelle screamed in anger. "You are correct my dear! I would of kidnapped you if COW DIDN'T SAVE YOU!!!" Pickle said angerly. "LET US GO!!! WE WON'T TELL ANYONE ABOUT YOUR HIDEOUT!!!" Cow said in struggle. "Oh really? What would you give us to prove that you won't tell anyone?" Sea Queen asked evilly. "This..." Cow said softly. He holds the tracker in his hand. "This tracker can tell when a wildcard or a hideout is discovered." Cow explained softly. The Three Tricksters huddled up and looked at the two. "Alright! Give us the tracker and we'll let you go!" Sea Queen said. Cow gives Sea Queen the tracker and uses her tentacles to take them outside. Cow and Gazelle walks out of the beach. "They're so going to be pissed to find out we still have it!" Cow smiled and hold up the tracker. Cow and Gazelle laughed. Meanwhile the three wildcards calmed down and went back to their table. Sea Queen looks at her hand and sees she's holding a TV remote!! "THEY TRICKED US!!!" Sea Queen screamed in anger. Pickle runs outside and screams. "CURSE YOU TWO, WE WILL HUNT YOU DOWN! GET IT! WE......WILL.....HUNT....YOU...DOWN!!!" Pickle screamed so loud that Cow and Gazelle heard him. Cow and Gazelle laughed and heads back to their home.
