Author's Note: Wow... I just wrote the most depressing one-shot in the history of... well, Lily (it's called "Superhuman"- feel free to check it out... and review!). So I needed to write something Dan-related that was NOT depressing. So... here goes!
"The meaning of life, Amy- it is forty-two."
His older sister glanced away from the screen with a skeptical, "Dan, you are such a dweeb" expression on her face. "Dan, what in the world are you talking about?"
"The meaning of life. The thirty-nine clues, plus the ring, plus the Cahill family, plus the Vespers. Forty-two," he said matter-of-factly. "Those forty-two things- when it all comes together in one huge explosion, it's going to shape the future of the planet and everyone on it. The future of all life, Amy. Forty-two."
She blinked, surprised. In a way, he was right.
Author's Note: Haha, the idea came to me randomly this morning. Hope you enjoyed! :)
