Hello! I'm sorry I killed Luke, he was my fave to! You know I have to say it, so here it is. I don't own any of the Prof. Layton characters or Rue's Lullaby. Enjoy!

Janice's POV

"JANICE!" Luke's cry for help rang through the corridors of the castle. "Luke! Where are you? Luke I'm coming!" I cried, running blindly thorough the corridors. Eventually, I saw Luke, his back pressed up against a grate. "Janice." He whispered. "Luke…" at that moment, out of nowhere a spear lodged itself in his stomach. "NO!" I cried. I ran and caught him before he could fall, and put his head on my lap. I nearly threw up at the sight of blood trickling out of the corners of his mouth. "Did you find the Professor?" he asked weakly. "No I haven't, but I will, I promise." I said. I heard a clanging and looked up. "Don't go!" Luke said as loudly as he could. "I'm not going anywhere." I assured him, clinging to his hand as if I was the one dying. "Sing" Luke said quietly. What else could I do? So I sang a lullaby my mother had always sung to me;

Deep in the meadow, under the willow, a bed of grass, a soft green pillow.

Lay down your head, and close your sleepy eyes.

And when again they open, the sun will rise.
Here it's safe, here it's warm Here the daisies guard you from every harm

Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them true here is the place where I love you.

Deep in the meadow, hidden far away a cloak of leaves, a moonbeam ray

Forget your woes and let your troubles lay and when again it's morning, they'll wash away.

Here it's safe, here it's warm Here the daisies guard you from every harm

Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them true

Luke's hand fell limp in mine. I knew he was dead, but I sang the last line anyway;

Here is the place where I love you.

I extracted my hand from Luke's. I was horrified to find it was covered in blood. Luke's blood. I sobbed bitterly. I moved his head off my lap. I kissed lightly him on the cheek. I decided to look for some flowers or something. So I left Luke's body where it was, the spear still lodged in his stomach.

Layton's POV

Forget your woes, and let your troubles lay… was that Janice singing I hear? I couldn't be sure. So I started running toward her voice, but I was stopped by a group of guards. I eventually found the group by the beach. They all looked so sad. "Why does everyone look so sad?" I asked Janice, touching her shoulder. "I'm so sorry, Professor. I did all I could." Janice answered, her face streaked with tears. I looked at her in confusion. She moved aside to reveal Luke's pallid profile, his hands sitting on his stomach. His eyes were closed, his skin pale. As I neared my beloved apprentice, I saw his white button down shirt was stained with blood. I was shocked. I saw a spear next to him, also covered in blood. 3 weeks later, Luke Triton's funeral was held. I haven't cried that much since Claire died. Janice sang the same song she had when Luke was dying in her arms.

Here is the place where I love you…
