First of all, I have to admit that I am not a native speaker, so there might be a few mistakes, but if you were so kind as to write me a message to tell me of them, I would immediately correct them.

Emmy's Mission

-Emmeline?

-Yes, Uncle Leon?

-Come here, my dear.

-What is it?

-You have shown your loyalty towards Targent and me several times these last years. Therefore, I think it is time to trust you with a very special task.

-I would be honoured. What's this task about?

-There is this professor at the Gressenheller University in London who has been researching on the Azran for many years now. I want you to become his assistant and get the information he has already collected. But of course he cannot notice anything. So, you see it is quite the dangerous mission and I need someone I can trust completely to fulfil it.

-What's the name of the professor?

-Professor Layton.

-!

-Is there a problem?

-He... He... He saved me once.

-How? Tell me the story!

-It was a few years ago. I was accused of having stolen something but I didn't! I was innocent! But whatever I said this inspector was sure of my guilt. Then this man came in, heard what happened – and proved my innocence. Without him I would be in prison now or something like that. And this man was Professor Layton...

-So?

-So?! I can't spy on him – I owe him!

-You owe me more, don't you?!

-I guess...

-My dear Emmeline, when your parents died and I found you all alone on the street I took you home and since have been caring for you as if you were my own daughter, haven't I?

-Yes, Uncle Leon...

-I would have never let it happen that you would go innocently to prison. I would have rescued you, wouldn't I?

-Yes, Uncle Leon...

-So, you see, my dear, that you owe me more than him, don't you?

-Yes, Uncle Leon...

-Is there still a problem?

-...

-Is there?!

-I love him!

-What? Ha. Don't make me laugh! Do you know how old he is?

-A bit older than me, I guess...

-A bit?! I would say more than 15 years!

-...

-Only because he rescued you? And you saw him what? Once in your life? I thought you smarter than the rest of the girls your age!

-Maybe I'm not...

-Of course you are!

-Is there no possibility than someone else can do this mission?

-Oh, please, Emmeline, of course not. You are the only person in the whole world I believe trustworthy and intelligent and loyal enough to succeed in this mission. Didn't you say you would be honoured?

-Yes, Uncle Leon...

-My dear, you saw this man once, this can't be true love. Maybe you like him very much because of his bravery and the fact that he rescued you but I daresay he doesn't even remember who you are! Besides, you don't even know him, do you?

-I guess not...

-Then go, be his assistant, get to know him – and realise that you don't even like him much.

-Okay...

-Where's my little girl?

-... I will be Professor Layton's assistant, I will spy on him, I will find out the information about the Azran he has, and I will not have my feelings interfere with my loyalty towards Targent and you, Uncle Leon.

-That's the spirit!

-...

-You may go now, my dear, make your preparations, and I will send your application to the dean of the university.

-Yes, Uncle Leon...

THE END.
