Yes hi. Yes I know. Nisa-chan FINISH YOUR OTHER STORIES BEFORE STARTING A NEW ONE! Yes I realized that, but it's like I'm just poking around on youtube and I find stuff on professor Layton then I'm like 'awesome' in five seconds of listening to the soundtracks for the Unwound Future and the Curious Village I get the ashamizing (personal word used with Emmyx & Ambex) idea of a fanfic and I can't get it out of my head so this is one reason why I want to write this. The second is because I'm lazy and have a ton of blankets on. Think about it it's March and theres a ton of snow on the ground! What did I do wrong mother nature! Other then that I'm just lazy with school and club stuff. Next month however I wont have that much club meetings and stuff so yeah…. OH YEAH! In February I went to Anime Milwaukee. It was amazing sadly…. no yaoi….. or Layton, Clive, Luke, Flora. But I did see a Grell and Sebastian (Black Butler) on an elevator and a ton of Yu-Gi-Oh cosplayers along with a guy in a skirt which was totally awesome… WOAH WAY OFF TOPIC! So let's finally get started with the disclaimer and story shall we?
Disclaimer: I do not, will not, shall not and can't own Professor Layton. I only own my OC. Okay? Now lets start with a story.
"T-the book. It's refusing me! T-This can't be happening!" Edith said as she drew back her singed hand. All she wanted was to be noticed for her abilities. This wasn't the way she wanted it to end! She reached out once more for the book.
The early spring morning held the sounds of chirping spring birds, the smell of freshly bloomed flowers and trees filled the air heavily as the light breeze mingled with each and every living thing. A black car zoomed silently up a dirt path towards a small village at the edge of a valley cliff. The only eerie thing about this place was the fact that the valley was completely covered in a thick fog and in the centre of that fog a great white tree stood before a clock tower that soared high into the sky. The LaytonMobile let up a small cloud of dust as the old little car drove on, three people sat inside. One was older then all three of them, he had a dark brown top hat with a reddish orange rim and wore a pair of dark brown pants, and a reddish orange shirt with a dark brown over coat that hung open. He had brown shoes on, brown hair black eyes. This was the Professor Hershel Layton, next to him was a younger man about twenty two or so with lighter brown hair, blue eyes. He wore a dark blue gray cap with a lighter blue gray over coat over a white shirt, black vest and dark gray blue tie along with a pair of dark brown shorts that reached about knee level, a pair of loose fitting dark blue socks and dark brown shoes. At his side was a brown satchel. This was Clive Dove a convicted man, but set free to work for Layton by Layton.
In the back was a boy about thirteen (1) and looked a lot like Clive but only younger and had a more innocent air about him. He wore a white shirt underneath a light gray blue sweater, a pair of greenish brown shorts with brown suspenders hanging off the sides. White loose fitting socks and dark red brown shoes, holding the white shirt closed was a small red broach. The boy also wore a hat like Clive's but this was lighter and much smaller. This boy also had light brown hair and blue eyes. This was Luke Triton, no matter what would happen he and Clive would never. Ever. Be related. These three sat silently in the small car as the Professor angrily drove the car, Luke and Clive had been arguing over some silly little riddle earlier and well… let's just say the Professor lost it and nearly drove them into a river shouting that a true gentleman never argued while in a car. The car was awkwardly silent after that, the only sound was of their breathing and the engine purring along. Clive looked out the window the entire time they drove towards the town, when the three of them saw the clock tower they stared in awe. The building was made of a dark gray stone and seemed to have carvings in the sides, the clock face was made of multiple shards of glass and had white roman numerals telling the time a pair of black hour and minute hands were keeping track of time. Around the top of the clock tower was a large wrap around balcony with gothic fencing.
Layton parked the car at the edge of town in the shade and shadow of nearby trees, looks like they would have to walk. Layton got out of the car and looked up, the sunlight was coming through the trees and making small patterns on the ground. "Remind me again Professor, why exactly are we here?" Clive asked irritably as he leaned against a tree, "Dear Clive that's the third time you've asked. Well I guess I should explain in detail. Last night I received an urgent letter from a Miss Edith Deanote (2)" Clive sat up at this "Deanote? Edith Deanote from the Deanote family?" Clive asked as the Professor nodded "The very same." "What does the Deanote family do exactly?" Luke asked as Clive leaned back on the tree "The Deanote family owns this town and has a huge antique store in London." The Professor explained as Clive looked behind him. "Clive is something wrong?" Luke asked in worry, even though he didn't like Clive he still kind of worried for the man. "Did you, hear that just now?" Clive asked as he turned fully around. "Hear what?" Clive peered into the dim forest with Layton and saw someone moving as if they were running away. About three other people chased after the first one, "Looks like trouble." Clive said as he ran off towards the first person. He knew this was way out of character for him, but the feeling he got when that person came into view was of fear. Layton joined with Luke as Clive broke out into a clearing, there were about three boys shouting the words in a rhyme of some sort, 'Witch Witch Witch, such a Bitch' over and over at a girl backed against a tree. The three boys each held a bucket of stones and where about to throw them at her when Clive jumped out and protected her, he remembered what Layton said "A true Gentle man always helps a woman in need." as the stones though small hurt when they collided with his back. He took note that the girl was frightened by him and looked as if she was crying. Layton and Luke stopped the stones being thrown and the three boys ran off shouting about how the "witch" had helpers.
Layton walked over to the girl and helped her stand, she had blueish black hair with a dark gray tint, the front was about two inches longer than the back. She had extremely light crystal blue eyes that seemed clouded, was she blind? No she blinked and looked around her in fear before hiding behind Clive again. Clive turned around trying to catch her, but she kept turning with him. "H-hey it's okay." Luke said as the girl stopped at looked at him. She wore a white shirt under a dark violet sweater and black vest that had gold buttons. A black silk cravat (3) on the neck, black skirt, dark gray leggings that reached her knees with black boots that had dark gray laces. On her head was a cap like the one Clive and Luke wore but light gray. She held a small brown wax paper wrapped package close to her, there was a small letter addressed to the girl with the name Edith written in black ink. "Would your name, by chance, be Edith Deanote?" The professor asked as the girl looked at him "Professor Layton?" She asked confirming his question. Edith took the hand Layton had offered to her "Now just why were those three chasing you?" Edith blinked and looked down "It's all rumors anyways."
Well how do you like it so far? Yes I realize I have like three other fanfics I need to work on, but I love working with this one so much! Now I should get to the numbers.
1) WATCH OUT LUKE FOR PEDO BEARS & PEDOS! (hint, hint, Colette, hint hint. -off in the distance- I HEARD THAT!)
2) Pronounced, D~a~note.
3) Cravat, it's that little piece of cloth that looks so damn cool!
Thank you for reading this remember children stay away from pedo bears and R&R. Thank you again next chapter will be up soon.
