(A/n) I am so sorry you guys; it took a long time to get an inspiration for this chapter. But it finally struck! Just a warning, it's not as funny or ridiculous as the last chapter. Hope you guys like it anyways. One OC in this but, just a minor part with about three or four lines of dialogue. I don't own 39 Clues, just the idea. Enjoy chicos and chicas.

"It was during the Clues competition on the race to the first clue, when Ned, Ted and I were following Amy, Dan, Sammi and Nellie." Sinead started.

*COMMENCE FLASHBACK TIME! OHNOES! *

Sinead and Ted walked over to the car rental area where they had followed the Cahills. They silently opened the door, put a small tracking/ spy bug inside and closed it. The duo walked away nonchalantly and they were out of sight just in time.

They were on Interstate 95, heading into downtown, five cars behind the Cahills and their au pair. The older sister looked out the back and saw the gray Mercedes. Over the speakers wirelessly connected to the bug, Amy's voice crackled across.

"We're being followed." She announced.

"What?" Dan said.

"By who?" Sammi replied.

"Five cars back." Amy replied. "Gray Mercedes. It's the Starlings."

"A Starbucks?" Nellie said excitedly. "Where?"

In the gray Mercedes, Sinead wrinkled her nose. "How does Starling even sound like Starbucks?"

"Starlings," Amy corrected. "Our relatives. Ned, Ted and Sinead."

Nellie snorted. "That's not really their names."

"Well Starbucks sure as hell isn't." Sammi smirked. "Sinead Starbucks has a nice ring to it though."

Sinead scowled. "Seriously?"

"What, Sinead Starbucks?" Ned chuckled.

"Are you kidding me?" Sinead snarled, glaring at Ned. "It's your last name too!" She turned her freckled face to the window again.

"I'm not joking." Amy said. "It's, um, part of the scavenger hunt. Nellie, we can't let them follow us. We have to lose them."

"Scavenger hunt?" Ted rolled his eyes. "Can't she make a better excuse?"

The au pair drove the car as if she were in a race, speeding past cars at an unruly rate, flooring the 'eco friendly' car. The poor cat's yowl carried across to the speaker. They were aimed at the safety impact barrels then swerved onto the exit ramp. Sinead's jaw dropped, they got away. Amy turned around to see this expression.

"Is that lost enough?" Nellie asked.

"Mrrp!" Saladin protested.

"Every time I see you, this ends up happening!" Sammi grinned.

"You could've killed us!" Dan had a big grin on his face. "Do that again!"

"No!" Amy said. "Locust Street. And hurry!"

"Well I guess we're going to the next exit to Locust Street." Ned commented.

"Shut up." Sinead growled, frustrated they got away.

*END FLASHBACK! *

"Nellie needs to take out her ear buds." Hamilton snorted.

"That stupid mistake on the part of that crazy au pair just continues to irritate me whenever people call me Sinead Starbucks, on purpose." Sinead scowled. "At least my nickname isn't as ridiculous and how I got it isn't as weird."

(A/n) Like I said, not as funny. I used the first book when Nellie and the Cahills were trying to outrun the Starlings to the Franklin Museum. Tell me what you think. I know this isn't as funny but yeah.
