Hello everyone! I'm new here on Fanfiction and this is my first Fanfic! So please don't review me harshly. I've always had this story in mind, and I knew that the best place to upload it was on Fanfiction! Ok, so let's get started. Enjoy!

Claire closed the front door carefully and raced to her car. Little did she know what was to come from her time travel experiment. When she got to her work building, Claire got a little nervous. Don't worry, Bill said the experiment was going to be safe Claire thought to herself. She clumsily took the stairs to her floor. When her hand grabbed the doorknob, Claire started to breathe heavily. Was she really that nervous? As brave as can be, she opened the door to find Bill reading some papers.

"Claire, you are here! Perfect timing as always!" said Bill cheerfully.

"Thanks Bill, I was afraid I was going to be late." explained Claire, as she walked in.

"Not at all, now shall we begin?" asked Bill nervously. He walked over to the giant machine that was supposed to be the Time Travel Machine.

Back at his apartment was Professor Hershel Layton. He had recently become a Professor and he was proud of it. Before Claire left, she had given him a top hat as a present. "I guess you can say I look like a gentleman." Hershel told himself. He looked at himself in a mirror and did different poses with his hat. "A true gentleman." He said once more.

And that's all for this chapter. I'm sorry if it's short. But anyway, please review and tell me your HONEST opinion on this.
