Oh right the disclaimer: I, Burning Tulip, do NOT own the 39 Clues *sigh*

Chapter three: Rescued

"Well, it looks like we're in a room."

"No duh, Sherlock!"

"Ian, don't be sarcastic! Dan's right. We are in a room. The problem is, where exactly is this room."

"We..."

"Would..."

"Be able to..."

"Answer that..."

"If we had..."

"The proper..."

"Equipment."

"But you don't."

"No, we don't."

"Um, I have an other question. How did we get here in the first place?"

"I don't know. Last thing I remember is going to bed."

A chorus of "yeah, me too" and "same" followed Amy's statement.

"Well, maybe..." Dan never got to finish that (something about which Amy was thankful later) because they all heard a loud thud and a few beeping noises. Then the door opened.

Seraphine and Shaunee moved without making a noise until they reached a building. Now someone would say that the structure was abandoned. The outside of it seemed like no one had bothered going in for years. But the girls knew better. Very quietly, they reached the door and Seraphine took out a small devise and a knife from her pocket. Then she proceeded to loosen a brick from the wall using the knife. It took seconds until is was removed and a code panel appeared in its position. She connected the device, which looked like a small computer keyboard, to the panel and started typing furiously. After a moment they heard a faint beep and the building's door opened. They were in.

The inside was nothing like the outside, that's for sure. While on the outside the building looked like an abandoned warehouse, the inside was a maze. They first entered a high- tech laboratory. They crossed the room, not bothering to even look around them, totally focused on their mission. They went up stairs and turned corners, all that time without crossing paths with anybody else. It was as though there was no one in there. But there was and, thenkfully, they knew it. They stopped dead just around the corner and took a peek. There stood a guard, who look like he was made out of nothing but muscle. They smirked. He was no match for them.

Shaunee went first.

"Hello."

"Who are you?"yelled the guard.

"Your worst nightmare." She attacked.

It only took one kick to bring him down.

"Tsk, tsk. Nobody trains the guards nowadays?"

"Guards? What guards? Even the triplets could take that guy down and they're three-year-olds!"

"I know! Now let's get this thing over with. The sooner we get home, the better."

"Right." Then Seraphine approached the huge vault-like door that was blocking the way to the next room. She used the same device she had used earlier to the code panel that was by the door. After typing like her life depended on it for about 30 seconds, they both heard beeping and the door slowly opened.

The Cahills stared at two hooded female figures that stood just outside the door. The figures walked in,inspected their surroundings and lowered their hoods. Two identical faces were looking at them with an amused expression on. Their looks soon turned serious though and one of them said:

"Hello, Cahills. My name is Seraphine and this is my sister Shaunee."

"We would really like to take a moment and inform you on what's going on, as we are sure you are wondering, but we are in a hurry."

"We have to get you out of here, NOW."

"So if you don't mind following us, we shall get going."

"Ha ha ha, very funny. Give us one reason we should actually trust you." Ian said.

"Oh right! The code we were to tell you in order for you to follow us was: Mrrrp"

"Yeah, we can trust you. There is only one person that would actually use a code like that."Dan said.

"And who would that be, Daniel?" asked Natalie.

"Uncle Fiske" said the Cahill siblings in unison.

"10, 11, 12. Okay everyone is here. Now follow us. Be quick and quiet."

And they followed the two girls. They were half way out when the first guards appeared. Seraphine and Shaunee fought with them and they knocked them out so quickly, the rest couldn't help but stare at them. They moved on without saying a word. Hardly had they moved though when seven more guards attacked. The girls moved in perfect sync. And were able to disarm the men in no more that 60 seconds. A couple of turns later, they were out.

"Be prepared to run." said Seraphine (or was is Shaunee?)

"On the count of three."

"One.."

"Two..."

"THREE!"

And the Cahills run following one of the twins who was ahead of them, while the other run behind them (no one ever figured out how she got there) taking care that nobody stayed behind. After running for about two minutes, they reached a black van, which the twin who was in front unlocked. They quickly got in and the van sped away, the twin who used to be behind being the driver. The girls looked at each other and grinned. Mission accomplished.

"Will you answer our questions now?"

"Yes. Now we will."
