gNat2: I know you're out there...I know that 12 people have read this...why don't you sit down and review?
Also, I might or might not be getting better at making my own puzzles. Woo!
"It's says the shop's over hereā¦but what's the quickest route?"
Puzzle #002: Gotta go fast! (Worth 25 Picarats)
"I've spotted some possible routes to the clock shop." Elizabeth said. "This is the bus Layton is taking, which is one of these routes. We need to find a way to somehow not intertwine with the bus route. What way can we get there fast without the charge vigor, some sort of skyline, or an automobile?"
(Don't need to think about it, just read on. I'm making up things)
"I say we run up here, to the church. We take a left until we can turn right on the flower shop. Once we round the corner, we will be by the bus station in no time." Booker told Elizabeth. "We can make it there non-stop in 15 minutes if the bus gets there in 20."
"That might work, Booker." Elizabeth complemented her escort. "When did you get good at puzzles?"
"Lucky guess."
With that, the False Shepherd and the lamb run off and hopefully beat the bus.
~Meanwhile~
"This letter from me in the future?" Luke still was astonished of this weird discovery. "Maybe that incident set off a chain reaction, Professor."
Hershel's apprentice seems ecstatic about meeting his future version of himself. Even though the letter said that London is in chaos, a young boy like him really works himself up as the gentleman's apprentice.
When the bus stopped, he couldn't help but notice an odd couple standing by the bus stop. They seemed like twins, he noted, one of them holding a sandwich chalkboard over him while his counter-part stands next to him with something on a plate
The two didn't let Layton and Luke undetected under their watch.
"Excuse me sir." The female asked kindly. "Would you kindly help us in a little experiment?"
What kind of gentleman wouldn't accept a ladies request, after all?
"Heads-"
"-or tails?"
Layton can properly see the man in the sandwich board had a chart with tallies striking for tails than heads.
Just who were they?
"Great, they're here again." Groaned Booker as he and Elizabeth rounded the corner. "They must've stalled the two since we didn't know about the road being blocked off for renovation." Elizabeth reasoned. "Those must be Layton and Luke." "And they're doing that dumb coin flip."
~meanwhile~
Luke spotted two unusual figures running the corner. One was a man in an outfit he thought reminded him of someone from the army, the second one was a female with a white and blue corset with a matching blue jacket and skirt. He is receiving weird vibes from them, but it's probably just tourists.
"I'll say heads." The Professor announced. He flipped the coin in the air and it landed onto the woman's plate.
Sure enough, it was heads.
The plate holding female dragged a stick of chalk onto the side of heads. "I told you." She said to her brother.
~Back to B+E~
"Should we go up to them?"
"Will we have to tell them the entire story."
"No, Booker. We'll go up to them and say we need his help."
The two finally made up a plan (which is pretty rare since Booker would follow Ellie) and turned their heads to see Robert and Rosalind gone as normal. It seemed to startle the Professor a little bit, but they know he'll get used to it. The duo stopped in their tracks as Luke got the Professor's attention and spotted them.
Crap. No use in a change in plans.
