okay, don't give me any heat, this is my FIRST story. I hope you like it! Amy+Ian, Dan+Natilie (sorry! but I like that pair!), Sinead+Jonah.

The letter came first. Amy walked with her eyes darting in every direction. All of the "other family" that Fisk had told her about had made her feel like she was in the clue hunt one more. When she looked and pressed all of the mail carefully, she saw something special, VERY special. She ran to her room, throwing all the rest of the mail at Dan, who cried after her, "Where are you going, nerdy sister?" She didn't yell back how stupid he was this time; she just bolted the door behind her and stared at the return address and who it was sent to. This is what it said:

Ian Kabra

Kabra Mansion

London, England

Amy Cahill

(I can't give you more information in case Vespers are reading this.)

She carefully opened the golden envelop (no really, it was PURE GOLD) and read what the letter said:

Dear Amy,

I know I have double-crossed you countless times, but I need you to do a favor for me. Can you invite every person (besides my mum) who was in the gauntlet to come to a ball at my place? Thank you for not trying to rip this letter into a thousand pieces.

Love,

Ian Kabra

She decided to answer the invitation, but only this time. Soon, she had sent six e-mails and was on her way to explain everything to Dan. Hopefully, he would say yes and really wear a suit.

"NO! NO WAY!" shouted Dan from the couch. Amy should have known that he was unable to wear a tux and go to her stupid boyfriend's ball! Why would he want to go to anywhere related to the Cobras? "Where is this stupid letter anyways," he said, "I want to make sure that you're not just daydreaming about your boy-""HE IS NOT MY BOYFRIEND" she shouted at him. Suddenly, she realized that now everyone, even Saladin, was staring at her in awe. She quickly ran upstairs, grabbed the letter, and ran back down. Dan noticed she stared at it with those huge hearts in her eyes. Oh my gosh, she really has fallen in love with him Dan thought. He read the letter, threw it at Amy, and ran upstairs. He opened his laptop and wrote a quick email. It read:

Dear Natalie,

Don't tell Ian about this, but will you dance with me at the ball? If anyone found out I asked before, I'd be dead meat!

Sincerely,

Dan Cahill

When Natalie got the email, she giggled in surprise. She was hoping something like this would happen. She didn't care anymore that he was strange and called her a Cobra. She just did a jubilation dance right on the spot. Then she clamed herself and emailed him back.

Sinead was waiting at the airport with Amy. It was strange how much she'd changed since the hunt started. She just hoped that Ned and Ted and… Don't worry! She told herself she'll be fine! She's almost eleven. Yet she still couldn't help but worry about Nanny…

Ian smiled as he helped her out of the taxi. She looked gorgeous, with a black sequined 'M' dress and her hair in a French braid. "Thank you," she said. "Any day." He answered, smiling. It was time to dance, and he knew who he was dancing with.

Oooo! Who is this Nanny? What do the other firls wear? I'll put the next chapter up soon!-Hedea
