A/N: Hey guys! Umm, I know it's been a reeeeaaalllyyyy long time since I last updated my stories or posted anything. However, I'm back, and ready to start a new fic. So, without further ado, here's my new story! (FYI this is after the Cahill vs vesper trilogy and everyone's alive except Evan and Isabel.)

Disclaimer: I do not own the 39 clues or anything mentioned in the story.

Dan Cahill liked a lot of things, but some things he just couldnt stand: waiting in line with Amy at the DMV, being late for practice, and being forced to eat his peas. But now there was one thing that Dan hated above all else.

Being bored.

"Ugh, come on guys! Let's go already!"

Dan was a simple 15 year old teen, except for the fact that he was homeschooled, an orphan, one of the richest kids in the world, and hailed from a long line of famous historical figures. His family, the Cahills, were the most influential family that had ever existed, members of which included presidents, doctors, scientists, artists and everything in between.

Presently Dan was pacing back and forth by the front door of their mansion, trying his best to be patient. However, try as he might, he couldn't help feeling irritated as he waited on his family.

The first to appear was Dan's older sister, Amy. At the age of 18, she was the head of the Cahill family as well as the only sibling Dan had. Currently her red hair was in a ponytail, which clashed in contrast with her emerald green eyes.

"Be patient Dan!" His sister scolded. "We're almost ready to go."

Her brother ignored her as he always did. They knew how much he was looking forward to this week. It was the first week of summer, and although he was homeschooled, Dan's school schedule followed that of regular schools. In short, that meant that he was finally gonna get a break from his studies.

"Cmon Ames. Aren't you the least bit interested in this big secret that uncle Fiske and Nellie have in store for us?" Even though he had gotten older, Dan was still a kid at heart.

"Maybe it's a trip to Disneyland!"

"Dork. We've got enough money to buy 100 Disneylands."

"Good point. Maybe were going on a submarine ride to a sunken ship!"

"Now hold on just a minute Dan."

It was their uncle Fiske, their grandmother Grace's brother, as well as one of their guardians. He was wearing his usual perm-pressed black suite and tie, his silver hair combed nice and neat. His eyes twinkled kindly as he smiled at his nephew. "It won't do to keep pestering your sister. Only Nellie and I know where we're going."

At the mention of her name, Nellie, their other guardian, appeared in the room. She'd recently dyed the tips of her hair purple while the rest was a dark brown color. Between that, her cool nose ring, and her laid-back attitude, she was the coolest former au pair ever.

Nellie placed a hand on Dan's shoulder. "Don't you worry about it kiddo. You'll see our surprises soon enough."

Amy looked confused. "There's more than one surprise?"

She just winked. "You'll see."

A few hours later and the foursome were up in the air in a private jet.

Amy was curled up with one of her favorite books, completely engrossed in her novel even though she'd read it more than twice. Nellie was on her laptop, earphones in, watching her favorite show: Iron Chef. Fiske had been using his time productively, texting Mr McIntyre and checking on how things were going.

And Dan... Well, he was using every tool at his disposal as he tried to find a way to see through the tinted windows of the plane.

Infrared goggles... nope. X-ray glasses... nada. He even tried those 'mind over matter' techniques Amy had been trying out but nothing seemed to work.

After a few minutes, he slumped in his seat. "Stupid see-proof windows."

Fiske laughed. "Don't worry my boy. You'll see soon enough."

About an hour later, they finally touched down. All four Cahills gathered their belongings as the door opened.

The first thing that the siblings noticed was the smell of the ocean. They inhaled the salty air greedily, their muscles instantly relaxing.

Noticing that Fiske and Nellie were moving on ahead, the two jogged to catch up. They looked around, taking in their surroundings. They were standing in a grassy clearing about the size of a football field. A few kilometers away from them was a huge three story house...if you could even call it that. It stood on a cliff of some sort, a long staircase at the edge of the cliff led down to a sandy beach about 20 feet below.

The house itself stood on stilts, making it seem like a four story house instead. The first layer, Amy assumed, was the garage. Although they couldn't see inside, the garage looked big enough to hold at least a dozen vehicles.

There was a set of stairs that led up to the front door of the second floor. The wall that faced the ocean seemed to be made up entirely of windows. Infact, thats what all the floors looked like. What's more, on the second floor, there was also a wrap around porch that seemed to be accessible from the wall of windows.

"Whoaaa. Siiiiicck!" Dan basically summed it all up.

"Forreal Homes!"

Dan and Amy spun around to the voice, shocked to see the famous Jonah Wizard, aka their cousin. And with him was Phoenix. Dan and Amy quickly got over their shock and rushed to see their cousins.

Amy hugged phoenix while Dan fist bumped Jonah. "Dude, what're you guys doing here!"

Jonah flashed his million dollar smile. "What, you thought you had this crib to yourselves? Pshh. I brought the back up yo."

He pointed in the direction of the Cahills' plane, where his own jet had set down next to there's. What was more, other aircraft were descending onto the field. As the planes and helicopters landed, the doors opened and more people arrived.

Amy shrieked. "SINEAD! NATALIE!"

Dan shook his head. He was recovering from the screech of his older sister, wondering if he'd heard the last part right. Anyone could understand that Amy was excited to see Sinead, she'd been like a sister to her. But Natalie? Sure they'd all grown up, but Dan didn't think they all were that close. He watched as the three girls group hugged, happy that his sister was smiling.

"DAN! HEY DAAAANNNNN!" Said teen looked up as his name was called to see his best friend and his older brother coming in for a landing.

"Atticus? HEY ATT!"

Before the plane had even landed, Atticus jumped out and raced as fast as he could to his best friend, Dan sprinting just as fast. They ended up tackling each other and ended up on the ground laughing.

One by one the others came together until they were all a mash of family and friends, laughing and joking like normal kids. The starling triplets: Ned, Ted, and Sinead. The Holt kids: Hamilton, Reagan and Madison. The Kabras: Ian and Natalie. The Wizards: Jonah and Phoenix. As well as The Rosenblooms: Jake and Atticus and even Uncle Alistair Oh.

Hamilton nudged Dan. "Hey Dan-O. What's with the fancy house?"

Dan shrugged, just as Fiske cleared his throat. "Ahem. Thank you all for being here today. Now, I know it's been a little while since the last time we all met to take down the Vespers. I wanted to make sure we used the time to get situated back into our regular lives."

Nellie nodded. "And so, we thought we should deserve a break from all the crazy and the stress. We decided to create a getaway for the Cahills who worked so hard these past years, as a sort of thank you from us."

Fiske spread his arms. "Let's get started shall we!" And so everyone made their way to the house, excited by what was to come.
