General Fiction

When Kabra Met the Cobra by Syberian Quest

  • Recommended by Koraki
  • Though the official genres are tragedy and romance, romance has yet to show up in this incomplete work, and it includes no canon characters; therefore it can be regarded as a gen fic. This is a truly unique 39 Clues fanfiction - instead of dealing with the characters in the original series, or even dealing with the original Cahill family, it goes for a time period in between, covering the story of the very first member of the Kabra family - an OC named Raj, who is adopted by an English Lucian during England's colonization of India. Syberian Quest leaves her distinctive mark on this work, and it's truly an entertaining read, despite its short length and incomplete status.
