First chapter re-written!

Disclaimer: Nothing. I own nothing.


Amy rubbed her temples, this was not going well and it hadn't even been ten minutes. She looked around the room where her family was currently sitting and already arguing with each other.

"I'm telling you, it's the chicken that came before the egg!" Sinead said angrily.

Ian glared at her, "No the egg came first everyone knows that!"

Ned stepped in, "If it was the egg, then how did it get there?" He countered, backing up his sister.

"Because the aliens put it there, duh!" Dan chimed in. Ian, Natalie and Hamilton whacked him in the back of the head, "Ow!" Dan cried out.

"No Dan's right, the egg came from the aliens!" Madison said.

Hamilton looked at his sister like she had just grown a second head, "Really Madison, really?" He asked her incredulously.

Madison looked at him innocently, "What? It's true!" She defended.

"No it's not!" Ian, Hamilton and Natalie yelled at her.

Reagan huffed, "Hey don't yell at my sister like that!" She shouted.

Hamilton narrowed his eyes, "She's my sister, too you know." He countered.

"Well she's my twin. I win." Reagan shot back.

"You know, even if you believe that aliens brought the egg, the chicken still came first." Ted interrupted.

Dan crossed his arms, "Nuh-uh!" He said childishly.

"Okay will everyone be quiet?" Amy yelled, her voice getting louder with the last two words. Everyone stopped their bickering and looked at Amy who was slightly red in the face and evidently quite annoyed.

She met everyone's gaze and smiled, "Thank you, now Fiske gathered us here today to help us bond-" She began but was interrupted by Dan.

"Yeah bond with each blah blah blah, will there be any ninjas?" HE asked hopefully.

Natalie looked up at the ceiling exasperated, "Pray tell me Daniel, why in the world would there be ninjas?" Natalie asked him annoyed.

Dan smiled, "Because they're awesome!" He said gleefully.

Ian glowered, "I see you haven't matured one bit, Daniel." He snapped. Amy glared at him, no one insulted her brother except her, even if the person insulting him was a very handsome, smart, good-smelling- and where was she going with this? Oh yeah, no one insulted Dan.

"Hey, don't insult him!" Amy said, defending her brother.

"Why? We were all thinking it." Natalie told her snobbishly.

Hamilton shot up, "I wasn't!" He said.

Dan clapped Hamilton on the back, "Thanks man!" He said.

Amy shook her head, "We're getting off topic here," She said, grabbing everyone's attention once more, "Fiske said we're supposed to pick a game and play it." She told everyone.

Sinead raised an eyebrow, "That's it?" She asked surprised.

Amy shrugged, "Yeah I guess so." She admitted.

Natalie crossed her arms defiantly, "And what makes you think we'll actually participate?" She demanded.

Amy glared, "We're all Madrigals now, we should at least act like them." She told them.

Ted piped up, "She has a point, you know." He admitted.

Natalie huffed, "I guess you're right. What game shall we be playing?" She asked, sitting on the arm chair, crossing her legs and leaning onto one of the arm rests.

"How about truth or dare?" Reagan offered. No one had any complaints to that so they agreed and sat down.

Ned fidgeted in his seat, "So who is going first?" He asked.

"We could spin a bottle." Dan said.

Amy stood up, "I'll go get one." She said and returned a few minutes later with a Vodka bottle. Needless to say, everyone was a bit concerned as to how she knew where the Vodka was, "What? Nellie told me once when she out of it." She said, sitting down and placing the bottle in the middle of their circle-like shape.

"Is it empty?" Ian asked skeptically.

Amy rolled her eyes, "Of course it's empty." She said and spun the bottle.

"Hey why do you get to spin the bottle?" Dan asked.

Amy sighed, "Would you like to spin it Dan?" She asked tired.

He smiled, "No I'm good." Amy glared at him and watched the bottle spin. It finally slowed down and landed on . . .

Madison.

Madison looked surprised, "Oh okay, looks like I'm going first. Uh Amy truth or dare?" She asked uncertainly.

"Dare." Amy replied confidently.

Madison took a moment to think of a good dare. She remembered something Hamilton told her about Amy.

[Flashback]

"I don't know what's wrong with Amy." Hamilton admitted to her as they ran laps.

Madison looked at him quizzically, "What do you mean? She looked perfectly fine the last time we saw her." She told him.

Hamilton sighed, "No it's not that, it's just that she acts kind of weird around Ian, haven't you noticed?" He asked.

Madison thought about it, she really didn't pay attention to that kind of stuff, really she just thought that they hated each other a lot. But she didn't want to look like a fool in front of Hamilton, so she lied.

"Yeah of course I have, who hasn't?" She asked, lying through her teeth.

[End Flashback]

If what Hamilton said was true then maybe if she dared Amy to . . . Yeah that would work well.

"Okay I dare you to sit on Ian's lap for the rest of the game." She said proud that she was able to come up with such a good dare judging by the looks on everyone's faces. Amy and Ian paled considerably, Dan looked like he was about to either burst into laughter or rip Ian's head off and everyone else looked amused.

"Um- okay." Amy said nervously, getting up and walking towards Ian who looked like he was about to make his Maker. Natalie, Hamilton and Sinead snickered at his expression. Ian shot them a murderous glare to which they just shrugged. Amy gulped and sat down in Ian's lap. He stiffened immediately.

"Oh come on, it's not the end of the world!" Hamilton scolded them.

Ian glared, "To you maybe." He growled.

Amy raised an eyebrow, "I'm not sure if I should be offended or used to that by now." She muttered uncomfortable, ignoring the feeling of wanting him to wrap his arms around her.

"Well Amy I believe it's your turn." Natalie said cheerfully.

Amy sighed, "I guess so, Hamilton, truth or dare?" She asked.

"Dare." Hamilton replied with ease.

Amy also took a moment to think of an idea but unlike Madison, it came quickly to her, "I dare you to sing along to Hannah Montana's Best of Both Worlds while doing the hokey pokey." She said, smiling a bit evilly.

Hamilton looked shocked, he didn't think Amy would be so good at dares, "I have to sing what." He asked.

"Hannah Montana." Amy replied.

Hamilton glowered, "Oh just freaking wonderful." He grumbled, standing up. Amy also got up to put the track into the stereo system which was literally installed into the room.

"Okay Hamilton, you're all set." Amy said, sitting back down in Ian's lap, who still looked uncomfortable. Hamilton grumbled and the music began to play. It didn't take very long for everyone to burst into laughter. By the first chorus they were roaring with laughter, clutching their sides and trying to keep them from falling down. Let's just say that Hamilton was not a good dancer or singer.

The song ended and a very grumpy and embarrassed Hamilton sat back down in his spot, grumbling incoherently. It took a few minutes for everyone to stop laughing. When they finally stopped they noticed Ian and Amy who were blushing at the position they had found themselves in. Ian had buried his face in the crook of Amy's neck to stop him from laughing and wrapped his arms around her waist. They blushed, their faces flaming up, and instantly shot apart like the other had the Plague.

Sinead raised an amused eyebrow, "Well that was interesting." She observed

"Shut up." Amy muttered.

Madison glared, "I didn't say you guys could separate! Back on his lap!" She demanded.

"But- but, fine." Amy said defeated. Madison beamed victoriously and watched as Amy crawled back into Ian's lap who looked very upset.

Ned seeing the building tension decided to break things up before they got started, "Okay Hamilton your turn!" He said cheerfully.

"Ian truth or dare." Hamilton said without missing a beat.

"Dare." Ian replied with ease.

"I dare you to give Dan a piggyback ride." Hamilton told him. Ian groaned, cursing everyone in some foreign language and stood up. Amy, who was on his lap, was sent tumbling down.

She rubbed her head, "My prince in shining armor." She muttered sarcastically.

"Sorry." Ian said half-heartedly.

Dan looked a bit horrified, "I have to get a piggyback ride from a Cobra?" He asked incredulously.

Hamilton nodded, "Yeah pretty much." He said.

Dan glared, "I hate you all." He grumbled, standing up and glaring at the glaring Kabra.

"I can't believe I have to do this." Ian muttered darkly.

Natalie smirked, "Oh believe it brother." She said gleefully. Ian and Dan both glared at her and then returned to glaring at each other.

Dan sighed, "Might as well get this over with." He sighed, getting onto Ian's back.

Ian glared, "How much do you eat?" He asked, trying to stay upright with all the weight on his back.

Dan glared at him, "Did you just call me fat?" He asked incredulously.

"Quite possibly." Ian choked out.

Dan glowered, "Oh it's on now." Dan said. The next few minutes were hilarious, at least in everyone else's opinion. Dan had grabbed Ian's ears and was steering him around like a horse while Ian shouted at him, threatening to kill him in his sleep. Finally Dan got off and Ian had to be physically restrained from attacking Dan.

Dan hid behind Hamilton, "Somebody freaking shoot him!" He cried out. Ned spotted Natalie's dart gun, sticking out of her purse and swiped it.

"Hey-!" Natalie shouted, reaching for her dart gun but Ned held it out of her reach. He searched her poisons and found the one he was looking for and loaded it in. He took his aim and pulled the trigger. Ian cried out as the dart hit him and he immediately fell unconscious.

"Which poison did you use on my brother?" Natalie demanded.

Ned shrugged, "Poison 51, the one that makes a person fall asleep." He said, handing Natalie her gun back. She huffed and stuffed it back into her purse.

"Well since Ian's out, I'm going!" Dan declared, sitting back down in his spot.

Amy looked at him sternly, "Dan I'm not so sure that's a good ide-"

"The ninja lord will go next!" He shouted and Amy put her hands up in surrender, "Very good, now Sinead truth or dare?" He asked, a plan already formed in his head.

"Dare I guess?" She replied.

Dan smiled a bit too mischievously, "Perfect, you must wake up Sleeping Beauty here, just like the story!" He said.

"Wait but Sleeping Beauty was kissed and then she woke up." Sinead said nervously.

"Your point?" Dan asked.

Sinead looked at him like he was insane, "I have to kiss Ian?" She asked incredulously.

"She has to kiss Ian?" Ned and Ted shouted simultaneously.

Dan sighed, "Well if you want to put it that way, than yeah, she has to kiss Ian. Now hop to it!" He said, ushering her to get on with the dare.

"Amy your brother is evil." Sinead hissed.

Amy looked thoughtful, "Not so much evil as to idiotic." She explained. Sinead sighed and walked over to Ian. She made a disgusted face before quickly pecking him on the lips.

Being a light-sleeper because of the hunt, Ian shot up, "Amy, I said I was sorry! Come back!" He cried out. Everyone instantly burst into snickers except for Amy who was shocked.

Ian looked around, "What's so funny?" He demanded.

Reagan clutched Madison's shoulder to keep from falling, "You just admitted something you really shouldn't have." She said, laughing in between.

Now Ian looked a bit worried, "What did I say?" He asked cautiously.

"That you said you were sorry and you wanted me to come back." Amy said in a small voice.

Ian paled, "Oh." Was all he said.

"Hey Amy don't you have a dare to follow?" Dan snickered. Amy blushed and sent him a nasty look.

"That's for reminding me." She huffed before sitting back down in Ian's lap, who pretended like he did not want to wrap his arms around her.
