So, everyone here reading this fic is either a Maximum Ride fan or a 39 clues fan, or maybe even both(that's ME!), but I hope you guys understand that this fic. probably isn't your typical "love story", cause I've combined many ideas and came up with this one. The reason I'm writing this "love story" is to teach everyone not just about love, but about trust and confidence, and for the sake that I've wanted to write this story for a very long time.. The main thing I want my readers to know that "LOVE IS FEARLESS", quoted from Taylor Swift, so I DO NOT KNOWN THAT, Taylor Swift does!

Well, I hope you guys will like this story as much as I do, and I wish this story will be like my other great story, Life's Meaning. Please help me accomplish that dream/goal! Thank you all my faithful readers, and please DO NOT HESITATE TO REVIEW ANONYMOUSLY OR W/ YOUR ACCONT.

Now, let's get this story rolling! I'm so excited!

Chapter 1: Introducing... WHAT IT TAKES (WIT)

Well hello everyone, all my readers, people, or friends, I'm very blessed that you are taking a glance at this new story I'm writing, so I THANK YOU already. Now, let me guess, you're here reading this because of the shot outs and annoucements in my other fantastic story, Life's Meaning, or any other story? No? Oh, then how about because you were bored and decided to roam about this site, and this story's title or summary just happened to catch your attention? Still no? Um, well maybe you know me personally and are doing me a huge favor because I asked you to check this out? I don't think so, but what other other could there be... Ohhh, I know, you were introduced to this story by someone else who happens to know this story? If not, well then you sure are a special person, and I'm blessed to know that you are taking part of your precious time to read this silly introduction to a new story. I know I'm different as well. In fact, I'm totally different, in my opinion. Anyways, this chapter is total introduction, and a sneak peek of a chapter that may or may not appear in this story. It's just a short idea I came up with it, and instead of writing a short oneshot, I decided to maybe add it into the story. So, anyways, I'm very HAPPY that you are here, and please continue reading on.

Anyways, let's get to business shall we, I don't want to be wasting your time in doing something better. IF YOU MADE IT THROUGH READING THAT WHOLE PARAGRAPH, THEN I CONGRADULATE YOU. I'm sure not many people could last my abnormality. Though that's not what I wanted to say in this chapter, just an icebreaker if you didn't really know my style of writing. I'm very casual. Sometimes, my characters will actually be talking directly to you, and I know I'm definitely talking straight to you, just in typed words really. Anyways, what I write is what's going through my mind right now, so if you see grammar mistakes, it's because I didn't think out what I was typing out really. But, this is something I will always say... TRY TO STICK AROUND, I'M BEGGING YOU TO LOOK AT THIS CHAPTER AT LEAST! THANK YOU EVERYONE!

Now, enough of wasting your time, I really should be serious now. You're here, and I don't think I'm too entertaining aren't I? So, I won't bore you with more nonsense chatter, and I'll get straight to the point. Okay, so this story is an idea I fantasized after reading someone's 39 clues fanfic, but I developed my own ideas and, well now it's a crossover, and the title, as you know is What It Takes, or WIT. Refer to either one and I'll know what you are talking about. First thing you might want to know is who are the main characters, and well I have them ready for you. However, I need to introduce something first.

This story is going to be written in various POVs, or point of views, but that special thing about this story is that each chapter, three different POVs will be used, one from "separate" stories. "Separate" because three stories are going to come together. Still don't get it, remember the summary "3 girls, 3 secrets, 3 different lives, all intertwined by one thing...friendship. Meet Max, Amy, and Krissy as they venture through a world of chaos in search of what it takes to find a true love, a true friendship, and a true family". So, do you see the connection? Max, Amy, and Krissy come from different "worlds" and they meet. So, I'm taking on a challenge of successfully making these three "stories" come together. Now, the three stories have individual group names, Max's story is Maximum Ride, Amy's story is the 39 clues, and Krissy's story is part of Maximum Ride, but I like to think it as Krissy's Story. Now, within each group, there are two main characters. In Maximum Ride, Max and Fang are the main characters; In the 39 clues, Amy and Ian are the main characters; In Krissy's Story, Krissy and Jack are the main characters. As for the other characters, I'll give you a list from most important to OCs, their age and relationships to other characters.

Okay, so that's the list. Long isn't it? Well, get used to it because all my stories have a ton of characters. Okay, but there still is one very important thing that you guys should need and want... a full length summary right? I said I'd give it to you, so here it is. There are three separate stories so therefore there will be three summaries.

Maximum Ride:

Set two years after FANG, where Max reunites with Fang on the mountains where they saw the hawks because she finally "saved" the world. Dylan tries to chase after Max to receive her love, but when Fang comes back to Max, she accepts him without hesitation. Max and the Flock, along with Dylan move to Maryland where they find the mansion that Dr.M, Max's mom found for them abd bought for them as well. Everything is settled, and Max and the Flock, along with Dylan and Ella, when Ella and Dr. M move in with them, register to go to a public school, called Brooklyn B. High School, and Ridgeline Middle School with Max, Fang, Iggy, and Dylan entering Junior year, and Ella entering sophomore year, and Nudge freshmen year. Gazzy, and Angel enter RMS. Everything seems to go well until Krissy comes along. After that, things gets complicated, both Lissa and Sam come into the picture for they both moved to Maryland as well, new rivals emerge and Max is in too much stress, but Krissy and Amy are trying to help.

The 39 Clues:

Amy and Dan were the first ones to completely solve the 39 clues, and now they are free... or so they thought. They start a new, fresh life in Maryland, where Amy comes across an old friend she knew, Krissy. Amy however doesn't recognize her at first on their first encounter for she was wondering about the Vespers: a new family that is planning to destroy the whole world. Amy and Dan have settled down in Maryland, and plan to go to Brooklyn B High School to continue their education, but find that they're up for a surprise... Ian and Natalie Kabra have come to America as well, and happen to stop in Maryland, and are going to the same school as they are. There, Amy meets Krissy and they reunite, and form a bigger group w/ Max and her Flock. When Amy thought nothing worse could happen, it does because Jessi Johnson comes into to the picture along with Maya Stewart who both are trying to win Ian over, and this hurts Amy and Ian's friendship that started to form. Krissy swears that she'll help Amy in any way that she can, but that isn't easy either. In the end... you'll have to read if you want the ending to be good.

Krissy's Story:

Krissy was an ordinary Asian school girl who was best at anything you asked her to do, that is until the summer when her family's house burned down. After that, she began to slip away from the world even more than from before, and she soon falls into a depression. However, before she falls into a stage where she can't get a grip over herself, Krissy starts getting visions... visions of the future and that makes Krissy finally stop sulking and get on with life. She, because of her sweet attitude and hardworking spirit sets out in Maryland to find a house in which she can live in, but as a maid, and she comes across Max's family, and starts to work for them. Then, the school year begins and she faces her worst fears where everyone rejects her, except her old friend Kathleen Savier. Though Krissy doesn't have many friends, she still has Max and her flock, but she wants to be recognized once again, and so she starts to build up her confidence again. However, it's harder than she thought for 4 guys secretly have feelings for her, and a lond-distance friend comes to visit her and she doesn't know how to work it through, but she has the help of her newly found friends. In the end... you'll just have to find out by reading this.

But, I'll tell you this, in the end, Max, Amy, and Krissy will share a bond of friendship stronger than those of between sisters or twins. Now, that's it for the summary and I'm going to start with the sneak peek, how does that sound? Well, if you don't want any SPOILERS then don't read it, but I'll tell you you're missing out on something nice.


Krissy's POV

I missed them again. Why am I always late for this? I'm normally so early, and I could have been positive that I'd catch up to them. Guess I was wrong... again. Darn it, guess I'll have to wait in the freezing cold and do my homework while I wait for Max or Dr. M or somebody to come and pick me up... again obviously. So I sat down and opened my backpack and took out my calculus homework, and then I took out my iPod that I had with me before the burning and turned on the music but regretted it for the song If This Was a Movie by Taylor Swift came on, and yet I still continued to listen to the song that brings the deep pain in my chest back out even though I want to bury it away.

Last night I heard my own heart beating
Sounded like footsteps on my stairs
Six months gone and I'm still reaching
Even though I know you're not there
I was playing back a thousand memories baby
Thinkin bout everything we've been through
Maybe I've been going back too much lately
When time stood still and I had you

Six months ago I broke up with Jack, no scratch that, he forced me to break up with him even though I needed him most. It was the time in which I found out my secret, something I don't want to admit, but I'm one and I can't go back anymore though I regret it so much. God, I can't concentrate anymore. I need help. I put away my homework and cradled my legs in my arms thinking about what happened back then. Back then Jack cared for me so much. Actually, everyone seemed to care about but once I knew about my... my mistake then everything seemed to fall apart. My parents began to drift away; my sister turned too much like she knew everything because she was going to go off to college; my brother, well he stayed the same pretty much but he grew more crazy which started to get on my nerves a bit.

Come back come back come back to me like
You would you would if this was a movie
Stand in the rain outside til I came out
Come back come back come back to me like
You could you could if you just said you're sorry
I know that we can work it out somehow
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now

I wish this was a movie so I could have Jack back because I still need him. It's raining everywhere, but mostly in my mind and I'm getting drenched. Just say you're sorry and just come back to me Jack, I need you.

I know people change and these things happen
But I remember how it was back then
Locked up in your arms and our friends are laughing
Cause nothing like this ever happened to them
Now I'm pacing down the hall
Chasing down the street
Flashback to a night when you said to me
Nothing's gonna change not for me and you
Not before I knew how much I had to lose

This never happened to my friends, not actually falling in love with a soulmate. Our love was inseparable and yet I broke it. Now here I am sitting by myself, not knowing how to control my emotions and falling apart inside. You once said you weren't ever going to leave me but you still followed through with the break up, and well I knew what I was losing... I was losing my heart, my soul, my life.

Come back come back come back to me like
You would you would if this was a movie
Stand in the rain outside til I came out
Come back come back come back to me like
You could you could if you just said you're sorry
I know that we can work it out somehow
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now

If you're out there, if you somewhere, if you're moving on
I'd be waiting for you ever since you've been gone
I just want it back the way it was before
And I just wanna see you back at my front door
And I'd say

I know you're out there Jack but are you missing me or are you moving on? No matter what you're doing, I'm waiting for you to come back but I can't bring myself to ask you to take me back because I'm broken in the inside. I need you to protect me or I fear I'll disappear in this whole world not knowing what to do with myself.

Come back come back come back to me like
You would before you said it's not that easy
Before the fight before I left you out
But I'd take it all back now

"Get out of my life! I hate you Jack, how could you do this me? I trusted you and yet you lied behind my back! Why did you do that Jack?" That's what I said back then, and you didn't say anything and you definitely didn't know I was a... *deep breath*... a teenage mother. That's why I screamed at you not because you lied, but because you lied made me think that you didn't care about me, but I take it all back and you'd be here by now, I guess I was wrong, you don't know everything.

Come back come back come back to me like
You would you would if this was a movie
Stand in the rain outside til I came out
Come back come back come back to me like
You could you could if you just said you're sorry
I know that we could work it out somehow
But if this was a movie you'd be here by now

You'd be here by now
It's not the kind of ending you wanna see now
Baby what about the ending
Oh I thought you'd be here by now oh ohh ohh ohh
That you'd be here by now

Is this what you really wanted Jack: being separated from me? Please tell me no cause I need you. Please take me back Jack, I need someone and you were the only one to truly understand my feelings.

"You okay Krissy?"

I looked up to see Andy standing above me looking down with that innocent face he always have, but his face turned to a deep serious face.

"Why are you crying Krissy? Did something happen? Come on Krissy don't ignore me." He reached out to touched my arm but I flinched away and began to shuffle my way away from Andy.

I touched my face to feel that tears were rolling down my face. Shocked, I stood up frantically, shoved my binder inside my bag, closed my backpack and started to speed walk away from him. I needed to get away from here before he gets the truth out of me. I know Andy and he'd definitely be able to get my troubles out of my mouth, but before I could go any further I bumped into someone.

"Oof!" I looked down at the person I accidentally knocked over and was surprised at who I saw...


So how does that sound? Do you guys what Krissy's going through? Well if you're interested to really know READ THIS STORY! I'm pretty sure this will actually appear in the story and most definitely pretty early. Now, do you like this story? I hope so. But, not it's time for your questions. REVIEW with any questions you have about this story. Anything related to the 39 clues, Maximum Ride, the characters, whatever you want to know about. I'll be taking all of the questions and answering them in the next chapter, so please review even if you don't have a Fanfiction account, and if you do, please review with your account on so I can actually PM you thanking you personally.

THANKS EVERYONE, and PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO REVIEW TO ASK YOUR QUESTIONS!

I'm out,

~TaylorSwiftTwilightFan75 ~ "Treat others the way you want to be treated" - The GOLDEN RULE!

JK! If you know me, you should have suspected something with the normal writting of my usual endings. My beginnings and endings are always in BOLD! So, I'm just playing with you, and I'm not done just yet. Because I if very happy right now and want to share with you one of the chapters in this chapter that shows my love for the 39 clues series and Maximum Ride series, I'm writing a separate chapter for each one right here in this introduction and if you guys like it, then please continue reading this story!

Oh yeah, one thing first, I DO NOT KNOWN ANY OF THESE CHARACTERS OR SONGS, and THANK TAYLOR SWIFT FOR MAKING THESE SONGS JUST FOR MY STORY and for right now it should be from "If This was a Movie", "Better than Revenge" and maybe one other, but i don't know yet!


Max's POV

I sat down at my desk and put my hands over my face... no just face, crying face is what I mean. I felt devastated and don't know what I'm supposed to do now. Actually, I do know what I should do by the advice Krissy taught me. I have to choose of the few choices she gave me, and thank god she didn't tell me just one thing because I wouldn't have been able recover. However, Krissy told that I should either write a story going over the whole thing then tear it up into shreds or burn it, or I could write a song about it. Krissy once told me that I had a wonderful voice and that if I didn't use it then it'd be a total waste, so here I am trying to think up a song that would express my hate, anger, and sadness all at once in one single song.

For right now, I know what I want my song to be about... it's going to be about REVENGE. Besides that, I'm totally lost though. Guess I should go and seek Krissy for some help, but wait, Krissy's still down from the incident and now it being uncovered she doesn't know what to do now, but I have a feeling that this will help her get her spirits up because she writes lovely songs because she puts all her emotions into the song. Okay *deep breath* I can do this, Krissy won't bite my head off.

I walked out of my room and headed straight towards Krissy's room, but once I got there I heard Krissy singing softly to herself, "Maybe I've been going back too much lately when times stood still and I had you. Come back come back come back to me, like you would you would if this was a movie, stand in the rain outside till I came out. Come back come back come back to me like you could, you could if you just said you're sorry. I know that we could work it out somehow, but if this was a movie you'd be here by now."

Aww, that's so sad. I seem to feel the pain that Krissy is feeling, but I can't say that because I'm not Krissy and not the one with a child growing up in her stomach. It's very sad, and I wish I knew what was going on inside Krissy's head right now. She seems to always be able to hide her feelings in front of everyone that she knows, but you can read her like book when she sings her songs just by the emotions and expressions in her songs are too much to bare, let along the lyrics.

"Do you need something Max?" Shocked, I looked up to see Krissy was at the doorway. Did she hear me? I thought I was too quiet.

"Um... yeah, but how'd you know I was here?"

"Um, obviously enough while you were deep in thought I finished my song and stood up, turned around and saw you. Now, what do you need?" I could tell she was fighting back her tears and trying to control her emotions.

"Come on Krissy, you don't have bottle up your feelings. I see right through you, you can tell me what's going on in your head?" That should do it. I'm sure she'll tell me now. I looked at Krissy expectingly, but from her expressions I said the wrong thing. Oops, I offended Krissy.

"Oh my god, I'm sorry Krissy! I didn't mean to hurt you feelings, I was just looking for you! Please, don't take it the wrong way!" With that, Krissy's tense face relaxed a bit and she *sighed*

"It's okay Max. It's just I'm not even ready to accept what has happened myself let alone tell anyone else what's going through my mind because if you want to know the truth, I don't even know what I'm feelings now, I just know I'm confused and I don't know what to do."

Looking at Krissy made it unbearable and my troubles seem to be nothing compared to what Krissy is going through, and just thinking about that pains my heart. I'm used to protecting others but ironically, Krissy seems to be protecting me and now she's shattered and I feel so vulnerable but really Krissy, though she may seem to strongest person I've ever met, she's also become frail as well.

"So, what did you want?" I looked up again, and thought if I should ask Krissy for help knowing she's still hurt herself. Finally, I decided to go through with what I was here for even if I regretted it later, but I want to get to know how Krissy writes her songs so filled with her heart.

"Um, well I wanted to write a song-" I didn't get to finish though

"Really? About what? Is it something sad or happy?"

"Um... I want it to be about revenge..." Again, I was cut off.

"Perfect! I have a perfect song already. No need to tell what going on in your mind, just listening to this!" I took the iPod Krissy held out to me, and looked at the screen. The song title was "Better then Revenge". Hmm, seems fair enough, and so I started the song and began listening to the lyrics:

Now go stand in the corner and think about what you did
Ha, Time for a little revenge

The story starts when it was hot and it was summer
And, I had it all; I had him right there where I wanted him
She came along, got him along, and let's hear the applause
She took him faster than you can say sabotage
I never saw it coming, nor did I suspected it
I underestimated just who I was dealing with
She had to know the pain was beating on me like a drum
She underestimated just who she was stealing from

She's not a saint and she's not what you think
She's an actress, Whoa
She's better known for the things that she does
On the mattress, Whoa
Soon she's gonna find
Stealing other people's toys on the playground
Won't make you many friends
She should keep in mind,
She should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge, Ha

She lives her life like it's a party and she's on the list
She looks at me like I'm a trend and she's so over it
I think her ever present frown is a little troubling
And, she thinks I'm psycho
Cause I like to rhyme her name with things, but
Sophistication isn't what you wear, or who you know
Or pushing people down to get you where you wanna go
Oh they didn't teach you that in prep school
So it's up to me
But no amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity

She's not a saint and she's not what you think
She's an actress, Whoa
She's better known for the things that she does
On the mattress, Whoa
Soon she's gonna find
Stealing other people's toys on the playground
Won't make you many friends
She should keep in mind,
She should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge, Ha ha

I'm just another thing for you to roll your eyes at honey
You might have him, but haven't you heard
I'm just another thing for you to roll your eyes at honey
You might have him, but I always get the last word
Whoa

She's not a saint and she's not what you think
She's an actress, Whoa
She's better known for the things that she does
On the mattress, Whoa
Soon she's gonna find
Stealing other people's toys on the playground
Won't make you many friends
She should keep in mind,
She should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge,

And do you still feel like you know what you're doing,
Cause I don't think you do, Oh
Do you still feel like you know what you're doing
I don't think you do, I don't think you do
Let's hear the applause
C'mon show me how much better you are
See you deserve some applause
Cause you're so much better
She took him faster than you can say sabotage

Sounds pretty good I must say...


Think you can figure out who Max is whimpering over, and who stole him from her? Guess it and you might earn a prize, but thing is, be the first five to get it, but one problem, you have to have a Fanfiction account.

See how much influence Krissy has in this story? Well, I hope you liked this excerpt from this story, but now's the time for me to write a short Iamy chapter, or should I not? You pick... Nah, I'm just kidding, I'm still going to write that short chapter, and I hope you guys like it! I DO NOT KNOWN ANY OF THE CHARACTERS THOUGH!


Amy's POV

My turn's up, and I can't believe Krissy got me to do this song. God, this isn't funny Krissy and to think that I actually agreed most have meant that I was drunk or something. Why the heck am I such a wimp. Get your act to together Amy! Okay, deep breathes, I can do this. I walked up front, and picked up my guitar and went and stood behind the microphone, and said, "I am performing the song "The Story of Us" by Taylor Swift, and I would like to give a message to someone who has always made butterflies fly in my stomach, and I know you'll know who you area because you're just that sly person you are, and I still like you because of that, but right now, I'm questioning if I truly understand you, or are you playing another one of your games to test me, because frankly, I'm sick and tired of you playing games with me, and this song is for you, appreciate it while you can." I said, while adding Ian in my thoughts. After that, I started to play. The introduction started, and I saw Krissy had come up to accompany me in the sidelines, and she gave me a thumbs up.

I let the music get to me, and I started to play along with the song:

I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us,
How we met
And the sparks flew instantly
And people would say they're the lucky ones

I used to know my place was the spot next to you,
Now I'm searching the room for an empty seat
Cause lately I don't even know what page you're on

Oh, a simple complication,
Miscommunications lead to follow,
So many things that I wish you knew
So many walls up that I can't break through

Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
And we're not speaking
And I'm dyin' to know
Is it killing you
Like it's killing me?
Yeah
I don't know what to say since a twist of fate, when it all broke down
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now

Next chapter

How'd we end up this way?
See me nervously pulling at my clothes and trying to look busy
And you're doing your best to avoid me
I'm starting to think one day I'll tell the story of us
Of how I was losing my mind when I saw you here
But you held your pride like you should have held me,
Oh I'm scared to see the ending why are we pretending this is nothing
I'd tell you I miss you but I don't know how
I've never heard silence quite this loud.

Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
And we're not speaking
And I'm dying to know
Is it killing you
Like it's killing me?
Yeah
And I don't know what to say since a twist of fate, when it all broke down
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now

This is looking like a contest
Of who can act like they care less
But I liked it better when you were on my side

The battle's in your hands now
But I would lay my armor down
If you said you'd rather love than fight

So many things that you wish I knew
But the story of us might be ending soon

Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
And we're not speaking
And I'm dying to know
Is it killing you
Like it's killing me?
Yeah
And I don't know what to say since a twist of fate, when it all broke down
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
Now, Now, Now

And were not speaking,
And I'm dying to know is it killing you like it's killing me?
Yeah
And I don't know what to say since a twist of fate, cause we're going down.
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
The End

Through the whole song I looked straight into Ian's eyes and I could tell he was smirking...in the beginning that is. His expressions were priceless, and for the first time in my life, I saw him confused and shocked.


Okay that was a little short, but I deleted a lot of the actual chapter, so don't worry. Just think this through, you'll be reading that much every chapter, all three "chapters" combined. I hope you liked it, but why don't you actually review and tell me what you thought of it?

Now, don't forget to ask any questions that you thought of while reading this chapter. PLEASE ASK YOUR QUESTIONS, I'm going to devote the next chapter for the answers of the questions. Anything from this story to what I like to eat, I'll answer anything, unless it's something I consider inappropriate.

Thanks again and I truly hope that this story will be as successful as Life's Meaning, so please help me accomplish that dream! I'm sure we can if we just work together, and to make things even better, have a wonderful Thanksgiving everyone, and eat a lot of turkey!

I'm flying out,
