(AN: THIS IS NOT AN ORIGINAL STORY, ONLY AN ENTRY FOR 39 ADDICT 101's CONTEST!~

(By not an original story I mean that it was made solely for this competition, and will not be one of my main stories, or be listed in my bio as one of the stories I'm working on)

Seeing as this is a chatroom like story, and based on the few times we saw characters from the 39 Clues texting, I'm basing each person's texting format based on both how I text my friends and how I imagine the characters to text. This obviously is in no way accurate, but hey, at least it's funny!

Warnings? Alive!Natalie. Otaku!Ian (sorry i needed the crack). Fangirl!Amy. The Kabras being childhood friends with Jonah... and a superfluous use of the word "says" to avoid being taken down by guidelines.

I don't think there's anything else...)

B00KR3EADER: Amy

IAmANinja: Dan

FoodAmIRite: Nellie

IanKabra: Ian (Ian doesn't strike me to be the type of person who'd have an interesting username lmao)

Princess: Natalie

Stronger: Hamilton

Ice4Life: Madison

KillingWithKindness: Reagan

~Jake~: Did you guess it? No? It's Jake

GeekyNerd: Atticus

I'mListening: Ted

STFU: Ned

UhOh: Alistair


Dan was bored. And nothing ever good came around when he was bored. He played around with some video games on one of the many consoles they had, before switching to his phone to text Atticus. Climbing onto his bed, he laid down on his stomach, arms stretched in front of him as he unlocked his phone. Quickly checking if any of the forums he was following had been updated, scrolling through the comments. He kept scrolling until he found a comment that was just so dumb that he had to take a moment to breathe. He needed to tell Atticus about this.

Scrolling through his chats, he realized he had deleted his chat with Atticus just the other day after it was taking up too much memory. Sighing, he rolled onto his back, letting the phone fall onto the mattress. He lay still, staring at the ceiling that was filled with colorful glow-in-the-dark stars which looked downright ridiculous in the bright light of the afternoon sun.

He flipped into his side and picked up the phone yet again, fingers deftly typing out his password and going to his chats. He clicked the "create a chat icon" then blinked slowly. The sun was warm, hot even, and it was making him feel unnaturally sleepy. He blinked again and began to realize how warm and comfortable it was on his bed. Taking long, drowsy blinks and focusing half on the screen whenever his eyes were open, he made a chat.

By the time he was done, sleep overtook him and the phone slipped out of his hands, falling face down, obscuring the many enraged messages that was popping up on the screen.


Nellie had been enjoying her musician HD quality on the rare occasions that she used her phone instead of her iPod. Bobbing her head along to the music, she began to hum a few lines. A small beep interuppted the song, and she frowned, but then it faded away and her face straightened out again. Another beep followed, followed by two more beeps. Nellies face scrunched up as she mentally spurred the notifications to leave quicker. She was missing the chorus!

But every beep was followed by more, and soon there wasn't even a song in between the incessant beeping ringing through her ears. She sat still, lounging on the sofa, wondering to the god above what she had done to deserve this. Finally opening her eyes, she looked at the screen to see who was texting her. Names flashed by quickly, and the beeps were coming faster than ever. Interest piqued, she clicked the chat room. In a few moments, she became one of the many enraged individuals who were trying to glean more information with no success.


Amy was casually rereading one of her favorite books for the -nth time in a row, enjoying it just as much as she would have the first time she read it. She noticed that she felt hot, and blamed it on the action scene that was occurring. As she started to heat up to uncomfortable degrees, she realized that the sun was high in the sky, some 4-5 hours past what she was expecting.

Dropping the book in a rush, she lunged at where her phone was on charge to check the time. Quickly turning it on, her unease fell away as she stared at her screen with curiosity. Why was everyone texting her? Was there something important going on? No, judging by the texts she was able to skim through, it seemed everyone was angry at something, but what?

She clicked the chat room, suddenly glad she had muted her phone before reading.

B00KR3ADER, IAmANinja, FoodAmIRite, IanKabra, Princess, Stronger, Ice4Life, KillingWithKindness, ~Jake~, GeekyNerd, TheWiz, SinMe, I'mListening, STFU, and UhOh have been added to jdkfjhsk

IanKabra renamed the chat to "What is going on!?"

Princess says "That's what I want to know! What is this? Who are these people? Who added us?"

KillingWithKindness says "Chill, Princess. Judging by the other names, I'm guessing this is a Cahill chatroom?"

SinMe says "I can't find out who made this chat!"

IanKabra says "Wow, shocker."

STFU says "STFU Kabra"

IanKabra says "You must be desperate for and insult if you stooped down to using your own name."

Stronger says "But who made this chat?"

UhOh says "I also would like to know."

ThaWiz says "'sup dawgs? What's up with this lit chat?"

IanKabra says "Okay, what idiot invited him?"

~Jake~ says "Who invited me and Atticus to this chat?! We're not even Cahills!"

GeekyNerd says "Idk Jake, I'm having fun."

FoodAmIRite says "Can you guys pipe down? You're bothering my music"

Princess says "Why don't you leave then, pheasant?"

SinMe says "lmao pheasant"

I'mListening says "Did she just call Nellie a pheasant?"

Ice4Life says "Looks like Kabras aren't that bright after all"

Princess says "*peasant"

IanKabra says "A millisecond too late, sister. Perhaps you're more suited to talking to phes-I'm sorry, peasants."

Princess says "You were supposed to be on my side!"
Princess says "Betrayal!"

IanKabra says "It was your fault, and it's hilarious."

ThaWiz says "Wow, who knew the Kabras could act normal online..."

SinMe says "No no, this is the Kabras. Natalie probably is going to launch a full scale war against Ian now."

IanKabra says "Sounds about right"

Stronger says "Shouldn't you be worried?"

IanKabra says "No, she's never won before"

Ice4Life says "what"

Stronger says "what?"

SinMe says "what"

I'mListening says "what"

FoodAmIRite: wait... what?"

IanKabra says "What I am worried about, though, is my IQ."

~Jake~ says "Don't worry Ian, one day it'll get to double digits"

ThaWiz says "Ohhh, buuurn"

IanKabra says "That day may be closer than I wanted, seeing as just talking to you all is degrading it rather quickly."

SinMe says "Double burn!"

ThaWiz says "damn, didn't know Ian was able to produce such FIRE"

IanKabra says "Back to the situation at hand. Who created this chat? Why?"

B00KR3ADER says "Great question."

Amy hadn't planned on showing that she was, in fact, online and active. But the reply had just slipped out, and before she knew it, a cascade of replies had acknowledged her arrival.

~Jake~ says "Amy?!"

GeekyNerd says "Amy?"

IanKabra says "Amy?"

FoodAmIRite: Amy!"

ThaWiz says "Wait one sec... that's Amy's username? How nerdy lmao"

Princess says "Amy."

I'mListening says "Wait, if Amy's here, the person who made the chat was..."

SinMe says "Amy"

IanKabra says "Dan"
IanKabra says "Amy?"

SinMe says "Dan?"
SinMe says "Why would you think that? How idiotic are you?!"

IanKabra says "How idiotic are you? Why would you think that?!"

SinMe says "Honestly, you would think you had brains, the way you talk."

IanKabra says "Honestly, you would think you had brains, the way you talk!"

ThaWiz says "Woah. Trippy."

Amy giggled, looking at the screen. Who knew Sinead and Ian were still going at each others throats! They were always on the same page, each trying to go ahead of the other. The one time they had reluctantly agreed to working together, everyone was surprised with how much they had gotten done. Though, from the looks of it, right now they were perfectly comfortable with being rivals.

SinMe says "Obviously, Amy made this chat as a way to notify all of us more quickly in case anything came up! She's the only one who has all of our contact information, and she's clearly here, isn't she?!"

IanKabra says "Dear god, your brain is more riddled with holes than Swiss Cheese!"

Ice4Life says "Who knew Ian was such a savage?"

ThaWiz says "ayyy"

SinMe says "you! When I get my hands on you..."

IanKabra says "There's no way it'd be Amy. If she started this chat, it'd be named something like "Cahill Chatroom"!"

B00KR3ADER renamed the chat to "Cahill Chatroom"

KillingWithKindness says "Nice"

IanKabra says "If you remember, the chat was originally named jdkfjhsk which clearly shows that the creator had nothing in mind, or didn't care. Also "she made this chat to notify all of us more quickly in case something came up?". In that case, wouldn't she be the first to tell us the reason why this chat was created? That, coupled with the fact that it had all our numbers, it's obviously Dan!"

SinMe says "Dammit.., you're right... she would have been the first message in the chatroom..."

IanKabra says "I'm always right."

Stronger says "Amy or Nellie, what is Dan doing right now?"

FoodAmIRite says "I'll go check"
FoodAmIRite says "oh my god"

Stronger: what happened? Is Dan okay?"

Amy smiled ruefully at the screen. Trust Hamilton to be worrying about the person who got them all into this mess in the first place. Not that she could say the wasn't enjoying it.

Princess says "Oh my god"

ThaWiz says "Thas ma dude Dan? no way"

IanKabra says "Now now, let's not be rude about Dan's... sleeping arrangements..."

B00KR3ADER says :He likes comics and cartoons. so what"

Princess says "You're one to talk. we all know what trash you are"

Ice4Life says "Is that really dan?"
Ice4Life says "What trash?"

Stronger says "I sorta want to know too.."

Princess says "Oh won't you want to know.."

IanKabra says "Natalie, you better not do what I think you're going to do.."

~Jake~ says "? ? ?"

GeekyNerd says "I'm so in the dark"

UhOh says "my dear, you're not the only one."

Princess says "Oh I assure you, dear brother, I am about to do it."

IanKabra says "You are so lucky I'm in the branch of the other side of the house right now"
IanKabra says "I swear to god Natalie"

Princess says "Oh my, is that fear I'm hearing?"

B00KR3ADER says "What's Natalie doing?"

FoodAmIRite says "Whatever it is, send it quickly!"

IanKabra says "Oh no you don't"

Princess says "Oh yes I do"

ThaWiz says "Don't know if anyone cares, but I'm at the Kabra household right now..."
ThaWiz sent a video

Stronger says "... I have never seen two people run so fast in my life"

Ice4Life says "I agree... and we're Holts"

KillingWithKindness says "Are they even human?"

SinMe says "I'm genuinely questioning that right now"

B00KR3EADER says "I thought Ian never over exerted himself? How are they running so fast?"

FoodAmIRite says "More importantly, what are they running to?"

ThaWiz says "Ian's room"

~Jake~ says "So Ian wants to hide something about his room..."

GeekyNerd says "I am very interested."

I'mListening says "I'm so in the dark..."
I'mListening says "Not because I'm blind or anything just because I can't see the videos or understand what you're talking about"

STFU says "You know that incessant pitterpatter you hear when you listen to the video?"

I'mListening says "yeah?"

STFU says "That, is Ian and Natalie running"

I'mListening says "no way."

Princess says "Imm here1!"

IanKabra says "Not for long you little"

Princess sent a video

IanKabra says "How the fuck do you delete chats?"

B00KR3ADER says "So let me get this straight.."

Ice4Life says "Ian Kabra.."

ThaWiz says "is.."

KillingWithKindness says "...romance trash?"

Stronger says "I can recognize like 50 of those stories from the bookstore yesterday..."

Princess says "And he preordered all the blue-rays to the top 100 romance anime this year!"

B00KR3ADER says "I can't get my shelves straight no matter how hard I try"

Stronger says "Amy... are you going to ignore that your bed is literally a pillow fort on a pile of books?"

UhOh says "or the huge amount of paper everywhere?"

~Jake~ says "I thought you liked to be organized!"

GeekyNerd says"... You know, compared to yours, i think Ian's is quite nice"

SinMe says "Forgive me Amy... but I have to agree. He seems to take care of his stuff at least."
SinMe says "Also we found out that people can't leave the chat."
SinMe says "now, I'm leaving till dan comes."

IanKabra sent an image

IanKabra says "now then, let's get this princess turned into a prince!"

Ice4Life says "... what can I say? She's paying the price"

Stronger says "Jonah what are you doing? Help her!"

ThaWiz sent an image

TheWiz says "A million serial killers wouldn't convince me to step into that room"

UhOh says "Am I hallucinating from my old age, or are there devil horns on Kabra?"

SinMe says " not hallucinating. They're there. Definitely."

FoodAmIRite says "I feel sorry for anyone who has met this side of Ian"

B00KR3ADER says "you're not really cutting her hair, are you?"

ThaWiz says "oh no he's serious. When it comes to their wars, they're brutal."

STFU says "rip Natalie. You will be missed"

IanKabra says "well then freinds, I have something to do. Cheers!"

KillingWithKindness says "I can't believe I feel sorry for Natalie Kabra"

SinMe says "i agree"

The conversation began slowly drifting to other topics and Amy found herself losing interest. Her hand inched towards one of her books, and in a moment, she lost herself yet again to the world of fiction.

She briefly wondered when Dan would wake up, and what reaction he'd have to what he had accidentally created.

(Next chapter is where is all starts. Dan finds out what he did, proposes Truth or Dare, and etc etc happens)
