2 YEARS LATER

Ivy Kabra, being only four years old, already knew how to do something that most people didn't know how to do until they were 30. Taking care of her self. Isabel and Vikram rarely ever came home anymore they were always usually out on business which meant Ivy had to get her own food. Sneaking around the mansion wasn't hard for her anyway. She was so small and agile. Every now and then Ivy would peak in to her siblings bed rooms and watch them for a while. They would always say that they were okay and that they didn't miss there parents. They were so plastic. It was like they were dolls. All of the Kabras were like dolls. They were the perfect rich family on the outside, but on the inside they were emotional wrecks. Even Isabel had her issues. Ivy had grabbed two apples and a can of coke from the kitchen that Quinn had bought her. Quinn, Bickerduff, and the other butlers and maids knew about Ivy. Not because Isabel or Vikram had told them, Ivy had. Everytime Quinn went to the grocery store she would by Ivy snacks and other stuff for her to eat and drink. Ivy didn't know how she would survive here with out them. It was like they were part of her family. Ian and Natalie of course thought very differently.

Ivy walked back into her room and locked the door behind her. She turned on the TV, which was the only entertainment Isabel and Vikram had given her. Not because they loved her but because she kept getting on their nerves. Ivy had just turned to My Little Ponies when she heard the window open. A little girl with skin a lighter than Ivy's and brown hair jumped in.

"Hey Heather!" Ivy greeted.

"Hullo Ivy!" Heather replied.

Heather was Ivy's best friend. They met when Ivy was 3 and had wandered through the neighborhood to freak Isabel our. Heather was the same age as Ivy and they looked pretty similar too. Heather and Ivy did everything together. Heather's older sister, Victoria, didn't approve. Victoria and Heather were Lucians just like Ivy and Isabel didn't want anyone to know Ivy existed, Victoria did everything in her power to break the friendship up. Victoria climbed through the window right after Heather, and she didn't look happy.

"Well someone's being a grumpy pants," Ivy teased.

"Quiet you!" Victoria snapped, "Heather, you have five minutes and then we have to go to training."

"You go to training now?" Ivy asked.

"Yep!" Heather cheered, "I'm so excited! Right now I'm just a Python. That's what they call the lowest rank of Lucian agents. But Victoria is already a Copperhead! That's the fourth rank."

"Yes well I did work hard for that," Victoria said bragging.

"My dad's a Krait agent," Ivy said smirking "which is the ninth rank."

"That's because he's the Lucian leader," Victoria said rolling her eyes, "and besides you earn a rank like every three years and that's if you train everyday. I should be a Krait agent in no time."

"But Vicki," whined Heather, "isn't there a rank above Krait agent."

"Well yes," Victoria began, her voice shaking a little, "It's the Taipan agent but no one has ever accomplished it. You have to find the very secret weapon that lies within the Cahill family and no one even knows how to find it. All we were left by Luke Cahill was a four line poem.

Ivy stuck her tongue out at the word poem. She hated poetry. It was so weird.

"What did the poem say?" Heather asked.

"For starters it's Victoria not Vicki," Victoria said annoyed, "and it said and I quote. The secret lies within, the one who shares them all, to change the fates design, and to right was had gone wrong."

"Wow cool!" Heather said smiling.

Ivy narrowed her eyes at Victoria. How had she memorized that poem.

"Now Ivy if you'll excuse us we have to go to practice," Victoria said Turing toward the window.

"Wait!" Ivy said quickly, "I wanna come with you!"

"Yay!" Heather cheered, "now you can see what we do everyday!"

"Absolutely not!" Victoria snapped, "Ivy your parent don't want anyone knowing that you exist. Don't you respect their wishes?"

"Nope!" Ivy said smirking.

Ivy hopped off her couch and jumped onto the window seal with Heather.

"You can tell mummy and daddy if you want. But I don't think they would be to happy to know that you know I exist," Ivy said smirking, "tata loser!"

Victoria blushed in anger and embarrassment. Ivy and Heather climbed down the rope with a grumbling Victoria behind them.

LINEBREAKLINEBREAKLINEBREAK

Ivy had never seen so many people like her parent in her life. She always thought there was no one worse than Isabel and Vikram Kabra. She couldn't believe she was thinking it but there could have been someone worse. The Lucian Training school was a large campus full of ruthless children and adults that all had one purpose. The 39 clues. Ivy had heard her parents talking about the 39 clues every day. She knew everything there was to know about them. She knew it would lead to ultimate power and other nonsense. She had overheard them talking to Ian and Natalie about joining the hunt. Maybe once they win, they'll share with me and we can finally be a family, Ivy thought.

"Isn't this place cool?!" Heather asked Ivy excitedly.

"Yea its cool," Ivy mumbled still deep in thought.

"Just cool?! This place is awesome!" Heather said in amazement.

"Will you quiet down?!" Victoria snapped obviously still mad that Ivy was there, "we're already gonna get in enough trouble having Ivy here. Do you want us to get in more trouble?!"

"No, but I don't mind getting you in trouble," Ivy said smirking.

Ivy stuck her tongue out and quickly ran past Victoria and into the main building.

"Ivy! Wait!" Heather shouted.

Victoria put her hand over her little sisters mouth so that she wouldn't be so loud, but Victoria to was afraid as to where Ivy was.

LINEBREAKLINEBREAKLINEBREAK

Ivy walked down a hall full of boring office doors. She made it to the end and was about to turn around when one door caught her eye. It had the word LEADER written on the top. Ivy carefully peaked inside and made sure it was empty. She carefully opened the door and closed it behind her. Ivy looked around the surprisingly small office. She climbed onto her dad's desk to get a better view. It was books on Cahill, especially Lucian, history. She looked down at the papers on Vikram's desk. They were mostly just contact information for different people and the different missions that were in motion. She was about to get up and leave when she saw a paper sitting in plain sight that could be the answer to her finally having happiness.

Dear My Fellow Lucians,

As an award of my recent excel to Krait agent status I would like to announce that the next person to receive this status will get a chance to meet me. The great and powerful Vikram Kabra. As all of you know Krait agent status is the highest agent level that any Lucian has ever reached, but we also know that there is one rank higher. The Taipan agent. I would like to announce that the first person to receive Taipan status I give my highest respect to and they will be come the next Lucian leader. That is all.

Lucians Forever,

Vikram Kabra

This was just what Ivy needed. A chance for her parents to actually like her. She had been lucky that they even taught her how to read. She had caught on quick though and had enjoy every minute of it. They were spending time with her and that was all she wanted. She held the paper in her hands and smiled to herself.

"Find what you were looking for?" A voice asked from in the shadows.

Two figures stepped into the light and Ivy gulped at the sight of their faces.

"M-mother, f-father, what are you doing here?" Ivy asked shakily.

"Well since this is my office the more important question is, what are you doing here," Vikram asked scowling.

Ivy pretended to slip to distract her parents and dropped the paper she had been holding and switched for another one.

"I was just looking at this," Ivy said holding out the paper.

Isabel walked up and snatched the paper out of Ivy's hand.

"An enrollment form?" Isabel asked curiously.

"Yes," Ivy said hopping down from on the desk to the bookshelf, "I was think about coming here. Now before you say no, consider that you won't ever have to see me again seeing as how this can be a boarding school. Which means I can't get on your nerves either."

Isabel and Vikram exchanged glances and then looked back at Ivy with identical scowls on their faces.

"Alright," Isabel said, "but no funny business. Now if you'll excuse us I have to go see my real children."

Ivy rolled her eyes at her mothers comment as Isabel and Vikram signed the paper.

"Well I better go!" Ivy said hopping off the bookshelf and running out of the room.

Ivy was smiling and laughing. Not because she was excited to go here, even though she was happy she didn't have to her mother or father again, but because of the book she had taken from the bookshelf.

LINEBREAKLINEBREAKLINEBREAK

Heather had been ecstatic when Ivy had told her the news. Victoria not so much. Ivy was currently sitting on the top bunk of she and Heather's shared room. She opened the boon she had picked out and read the first page which was also the title. Secrets of the Taipan.
