I do not own the 39 Clues, because if I did Day of Doom would be out already and Isabel would be locked up for life.

Chapter 1- Cahill Meeting

All of the younger generation of Cahill's sat in the board room located secretly in the Cahill mansion. They started to grow restless, waiting for Amy to appear and tell them the meaning of this random meeting. The Cahill's were bonding and growing into a family after the gauntlet but still weren't perfect. The Madrigals worked extremely hard at bringing the Cahill's together. The Kabra's were still warming up to the whole family concept though. Everybody looked up to see Amy walk in finally. Her hair was swept back into a ponytail and she looked really rushed.

"Hi everybody. Sorry to k-keep you waiting." Amy apologized. Once Amy was seated she began to talk.

"Ok, well I'm sure you all want to know the meaning of this meeting."

"Naturally." Ian said while rolling his eyes. Amy frowned at him but continued.

"As y-you guys know, t-the Madrigals are trying really hard to keep the family bonded. So in two days all of you will go to Africa to help the needy people there and-"

"WHAT!? We are going to Africa to help PEASANTS! You must be out of your mind!" Natalie shrieked while slamming one hand on the table and the other she drew to her heart. Her face was a pure picture of horror and drama queen. Amy sighed and rolled her eyes. The other Cahill's were trying not to laugh at her outburst.

"Come on Nat, sit down so we can see over that big head of yours!" Dan said. Naturally this started a fight between them. This happened every time they met. Natalie's British accent became thicker the angrier she got.

" You American slob! I have my poisons on me and I will use them if you keep-"

"You think your such a princess and your nothing but a stuck up British-"

"Look I can't help it your poo! What do you want me to do? Donate to your lazy-"

"We have the same amount of money! How could you even say-"

Meanwhile Amy was trying to get their attention. " GUYS! SHUT UP! " She shouted. It fell silent and Amy quickly composed herself.

"Now this is a paid trip. We will leave in two days. But tomorrow, since we have to leave early, you all will come to this mansion to sleepover. We will be gone for a week and I expect everybody to pack cheap clothes." Of course Amy said this last part looking at Natalie. And of course this information set her off.

"But all I have ever worn is designer! I even wore designer diapers! You can't do this to me!" This caused a few sniggers. Amy closed her eyes for a moment. But suddenly she got an idea.

"Fine Natalie you can pack whatever you want." She said with a smile. Natalie smiled as well. "

"And also only Uncle Fiske and Nellie are going with us because we need super vision. So I-"

"How come they have to watch us?" Hamilton asked.

"Um… Well what do you suggest Hamilton?" Amy asked. Hamilton seemed happy that he got a say in the trip. " How about my dad?!" He said beaming. Everyone flinched. Amy bit her lip.

"Well Hamilton, your dad can be….. a bit demanding at times?" Amy said nervously not wanting to hurt his feelings.

"Yo demanding ain't even da word fo him! He's like straight up trippin!" Jonah said in his ever present gangsta talk. I sighed.

" Must you talk in that horrid manner Jonah?" Ian asked frowning in distaste.

" Yo what's wrong wit it? If I let down on da gangsta around my homies, then I might make a mistake around my fans!" Jonah said with his famous grin. Ian sighed. Amy decided to end this meeting as soon as possible. The Cahill's obviously weren't in a family mood. Hopefully this week didn't end up a disaster.

"Ok guys be at my house with your bags at 6:00 PM tomorrow! " With that Amy got up from the table and left the room. She knew the Cahill's knew the way out. And with that they got up and left making slight conversation. They were off to prepare for the disaster tomorrow.

A/N

What did you think? It was short I know! But the chapters will definitely get longer. You guys are in for a treat when they all get together! Can you spell disaster? Well, I want your input on this chapter so please review! You guys are great! Thank you! Now for the questions…

Where are you in the 39 clues book series? Please no spoilers! I'm waiting for Day of Doom to come out on March 5th! I really hate waiting!

Who is your favorite character? I totally can't choose! I love them all.

What got you started on the book series? Friend, Sibling, Just saw it in the book store… etc. I just saw it in the book store and read the back. It sounded interesting and I wanted to read it so that's what happened! I am so glad I picked up that book!

What is the most fangirly thing you do? At the end of Trust No One I went into shock and dropped the book. I sat there for a good five minutes before I got myself together! I will also get extremely mad at characters.

Here is just a story for you…..SPOILER ALERT! DON'T READ IF YOU HAVENT READ TRUST NO ONE! I was at the book store and I bought Trust No One! Well anyway I gave the book to dad and went to put the basket up. He knew I loved the books so as a joke he started reading the last page as I hopped in the car! Before I knew what was going on I heard him read the word 'Dad'! As you all know it's very easy to understand what he was talking about! If you have read the other books in the Cahill vs. Vespers series then you know that they are talking about A.J.T. So I freaked out and snatched the book from his hand so he couldn't read anymore. He just laughed but he never realized how serious it was. I was mad at him for a little while but I'm over it now! So yeah that's just a story for you…lol.
