Okay, I absolutely love the PL series!

Who's excited to get the new game: Professor Layton And The Unwound Future?

Well, if you're from the US, like me, you'll get it September 12, 2010

DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own the PL characters, but I DO own Kathrine and her mother. . .and any other random characters I make up :)

POV: Kathrine Pond

"Kathrine," mother called from downstairs.

"Yes, mum?" I closed my writing journal and hid it in it's special place.

"Could you come here a moment?"she asked with her thick British accent.

"Alright," I replied with the same accent. "Where are you?" I left my room and closed the door behind me slowly.

"I'm in the family room," her voice became clearer when I descended the stairs.

"What did you wa-" I looked up to see she wasn't alone.

My cousin, Luke Triton, and a tall, thin gentleman around 6 feet tall, dressed in a brown suit, the collar of the jacket covering his neck, with an orange shirt underneath and some clunky looking green shoes.

"Oh, hello, Luke," I stood next to my mother. "Mum, what's going on here?"

"Professor Layton and I want you to come travel London with us!" Luke's voice was deeper now.

Then again, I haven't seen him for 3 years.

He's 14 now, and yet, he still wears his white tuxedo shirt, light blue sweater, jade green shorts, brown suspenders at his sides, his white socks, brown shoes, and, my favorite, his light blue hat.

"You certainly grew up," I smiled at him and gave him a small hug.

"As have you."

"So, you're the famous Professor Layton?" I looked at the tall, mysterious-looking gentleman.

"I wouldn't consider myself 'famous', my dear," he re-adjusted his tall top hat, "But I will admit my name has been in the papers more than a few times."

"Yes, I did read about you once or twice, I believe," mother interrupted.

"Alright," Luke smiled at me, "I do remember your love to change the subject when you didn't like what you heard."

Busted.

"I haven't the slightest idea what you mean, Luke," I smiled nervously at him.

"You don't want to come traveling, do you?" Luke's smile faded quickly.

"Um. . .I really don't know about it," I looked at mother, "What do you think I should do?"

"I think," she began, "you need to go. You're safer with them than you could be in this town."

"What is that supposed-" my voice broke, "I don't know about it."

"Go," she insisted with a caring smile that said I-only-want-what's-best-for-you.

"Alright, mum. I'll go."

"Good girl, now go pack some of your things."

I ran up the stairs, but only halfway.

"She needs to stay safe," I over heard mother say.

"I promise you," the professor's voice rang out, "she will be safe with us. We won't let harm come to her."

"Thank you, with everyone trying to get their hands on the Eagle's Claw, they'd do anything to get it."

Eagle's Claw?

Oh! She means the gift we got from my grandparents before they passed.

I ran up quickly and grabbed the box containing it from her room and packed it.

I'm sorry, mother, but I have to do what I believe is right.

I hid it under some clothes and closed my small suitcase.

"Are you ready?" Luke knocked on my door.

"Yes," I said, "Let's get a move on."

What do you think of it? I really wanna know if you guys like it so far or not.

I will give more information about Kathrine in the next chapter :)
