ACK! I just realized how close it is to Valentine's Day! I totally forgot to post this. Urgh. Anyway, I got this idea from World History class last year. We were reading some of A Midsummer Night's Dream and our teacher made us act it out in front of the class. Thank goodness he didn't pick me. :) So, I decided to make the Cahills do a twisted version of the play. It's not going to be exactly like the play. So, not all the characters in the original might be in here.

The course of love never did run smooth

Dear Cahills,
I want to invite you to my crib in California for Valentine's Day. I'm going to be telling another story. It's one of my favorites. The directions are at the bottom of the letter. Tell me if you're coming!

The clue hunters sat in the living room of Jonah's mansion. They were all greeting each other. The last time they had seen each other was a few months ago.
"Hey, where's Jonah?" Dan asked, realizing he wasn't there.
"Right here!"
Jonah stood in the doorway, grinning. An Asian girl who looked about sixteen stood next to him. She had short red hair tied into a ponytail and bangs. She had red glasses and hazel eyes.
"Hey, Jonah." said Dan, grinning.
Jonah smiled. "Hey, dawgs."
"Who's this?" Alistair asked.
"This is my friend Rina." said Jonah.
She gave a small wave. "Hello," She had a slight French accent.
Ian raised an eyebrow. "You're French?"
"I'm Japanese, but I live in France." she said, smiling slightly.
"She's a Janus." said Jonah, grinning. "She's going to help me tell the story."
"What is the story anyway, Jonah?" Hamilton asked.
"It's written by my favorite writer. William Shakespeare." he said.
Dan made a face. "Sounds thrilling."
"It will be the way we tell it." said Rina.
"A twisted Midsummer Night's Dream." said Jonah.
Amy smiled. "I love that play."
"Another love story." Madison grumbled.
"Well, it is Valentine's Day." Reagan muttered.
"No one dies in this story, right?" Nellie said.
"Who knows?" Rina said, smirking. "You can in our story."
"I don't like how you said that." Dan muttered.
"We're going to take turns telling the story." said Jonah. "It's going to be tight, yo!"
"I'm already shaking with excitement." Natalie said, dryly.
"Come on, peeps! Where's the love?" Jonah said.
"There is no love." Ted said.
Jonah smiled. "Well, we'll just have to change that."
"Where are you going with this, Jonah?" Natalie said, eyeing him suspiciously.
"You'll see," said Jonah.
Natalie scowled.
Rina smiled. "Don't worry, mon ami. You'll love Valentine's Day once you hear our twisted version."
"Wonderful," Natalie grumbled.
Jonah clapped his hands. "Alright! Let's start this story!"
