Flora Reinhold: French Fighter
Whenever someone speaks French, there will be a number. At the end, I'll explain what they all mean, okay? thanks!
"Laytooon!" The heavy-accented man screamed. "Vous êtes allé trop loin cette fois(1)! I assure you, you will be extremely sorry you crossed me!" The man lunged at Hershel yet again with the sword he had unsheathed. Layton himself had also found a sword somehow, and was parrying and deflecting every attack thrown at him. And the French villain in his wake didn't like it one bit. He bellowed again, "LAYTOOON!", and flung himself at Hershel once again. This time, however, Hershel wasn't so lucky. The sword had jabbed him in the side, and Layton doubled over onto the floor in pain. "Professor!" Luke cried frantically. Flora, the professor's adopted daughter, had simply stood by, fuming, not knowing how she could help.
But now, she had an idea.
She knew French - she had taken a class in school - so she knew how to respond to this man. She picked up Layton's weapon and glared daggers at the villain. "Vous allez payer pour ça(2)!" She yelled, lunging at the man. He narrowly avoided the attack. "Ah, Vous parlez français, alors(3)?" He asked. She just glared at him. "Juste se taire et se battre, vous bonne à rien brute(4)!" He blinked, and then quickly sidestepped, almost getting his side pierced by a fourteen-year-old girl with a sword. Luke was staring in awe, while Layton was on the ground, slowly recovering; a paramedic had been passing by and seen the attack that felled Layton, and rushed to his aid. Flora lunged again and knocked the villain's sword out of his hand, placing the tip of her own weapon mere centimetres from his throat. "Vous avez beaucoup de culot pour une petite fille(5)." He taunted. Flora simply replied, "Et je suis encore un meilleur combattant. Qu'est-ce que disent de vous(6)?" He blinked, retorting, "Pourquoi, vous bon à rien-chienne(7)." Flora gasped, touching the tip of her sword to his throat threateningly. "Prenez de retour(8)." She threatened. He chuckled, "Ou quoi(9)?" Flora pushed the sword closer to his throat and spat, "Je l'ai dit de le reprendre(10)!" The villain held his hands up in surrender. "Bon, d'accord(11)!" He stood slowly, and ran for dear life when Flora finally put down her sword. Then, she walked up to Luke and the professor. "That was amazing, Flora!" Luke squealed excitedly. Flora giggled, "Merci - I mean, thank you."
