Professor Layton could hear the banshee's wail. And he knew where it was coming from.

He ran quickly down the hall and towards Ilizaveta's room. Inside he heard her scream and thought the worst had happened.

As he threw open the door he couldn't see the killer's face. But he could see Ilizaveta's and it was horror filled.

"What do you mean?" She asked. "I've never done anything to you!"

"Yes you have. You horrible woman."

"Sarah stop this!" Layton cried out. "Ilizaveta never did anything to you. She is innocent."

Bain's fiance looked over at Layton. "You don't know. You don't know what she has done to me."

"You faked your own death didn't you? You killed that poor dead butler's sister." Layton eyed the woman before him. She looked positively crazy. Her hair was disheveled and dirty and her cloths were torn. She was breathing heavily as she held knife in her hand.

"Ha. His sister practically begged me." Sarah laughed coldly. "She couldn't live with out her dear sweet brother. So I did her a small favor."

"Yes but what has Ilizaveta ever done to you?" Layton asked. He wanted Ilizaveta to move but she seemed frozen to the spot.

"I believe I can answer that." A familiar voice spoke from the door.

Layton turned swiftly to the door.

"Ah Don Paolo" Layton said rather smoothly. "You can answer our little question?"

"Heh. Perhaps." He replied.

"You see I can shed light on your whole mystery Layton." He glared coldly. "Even the parts that still allude you."

"Then do so sir. A life hangs in the balance."

"You see Layton all along you have possessed the key to this whole problem. Look at the girl on the ground. Does she not look familiar?"

Layton turned to Ilizaveta. "I do not understand. Speak more plainly."

"You have possessed the Forgotten Angel."

---

"What do you mean?" Ilizaveta demanded from her spot on the floor. She was glad attention was off of her for a moment but she couldn't help her question.

"You are the blasted Forgotten Angel!" Sarah screamed at her. "And that man over there is the one who took you!" She pointed to Don Paolo. "He wanted someone to learn from him and he picked you."

"But I don't ... remember." Ilizaveta looked around.

"Because he erased your memory you stupid girl! He created a whole new identity for you." Sarah was holding the knife closer to Ilizaveta. "But you wouldn't learn from him. You refused. So he sent you on your merry way. But could he send you back here? No. You had no memory."

"But ... I ..."

"You get all the money! You get everything! Bain may have been able to live with that but why should I have? Why should I have to live in the shadow of a perfect daughter? Nothing was ever right to the old man. 'Be more like Colleen! Act more like Colleen.' you were perfect and beautiful. I wasn't what O'Donnell wanted marring his son."

"But how did you find out? If no one knew where Ilizaveta was." Layton asked as he glared at Don Paolo.

"Simple. He told me." Sarah laughed. "He wanted a cut of the money so he told me where the Angel was. I suggested that O'Donnell get you to come Professor. I knew you would bring the girl with you."

"Then who sent the note? Someone else knows of her past." Layton stated.

"What letter?" Ilizaveta asked.

"Nothing." Layton replied.

"A better part of me sent it." Sarah said sitting sadly down. "I thought maybe if you didn't come this whole thing would blow over and Bain and I would get all the money."

Ilizaveta suddenly stood up and ran over to Don Paolo. "Where do you get off?" She demanded.

"You showed promise." He said simply as he turned to walk away. His part was done here.

"Get back here! I'm not done with you!"

"And I'm not done with you Forgotten Angel!" Sarah yelled charging at her. "And now you'll be forgotten forever!"

Layton reached out to stop the mad woman but he missed by barely an inch. For a moment he stood in shock as he watched the two women struggle against each other. He didn't know what to do. He could see the flash of the knife as it reached out for Ilizaveta. His mind was blank until he heard the quiet gasp. He could see a flash of silver once more this time mixed with red. And he saw the wound.

"Ilizaveta!" It was bleeding too much. He sat by her side and tried to cover the wound.

"At last I am done." Sarah looked at the knife in her hand. "I can rest peacefully." With that she slowly walked from the room.

"Are you okay?" Layton asked looking down at Ilizaveta.

"Heh. I'm fine." She groaned a little. "Go ... Stop her."

"But ..."

"Don't argue with me Professor Layton." She said weakly. "I'll be fine."

"If your sure .." Layton stood up. "I'll be back."

"What are you going to do now Sarah?" Layton demanded as he grabbed a hold of the woman. "You are a killer! You can't take the money now!"

"Don't you understand?" Sarah asked. "I did it for Bain. He couldn't do it so I did."

"But why all those people and why make it look like the banshee?"

"Because." Sarah started. "Because I found that her lover really did kill her. I found a note from him. He killed her for money. If he didn't marry her his family was going to band together and raise a lot of money for him. He did not love her he loved money. Just as Bain does not love me he loves my money. If he marries me he gets half my family fortune. I wanted to see how much ... How much he loved me. So I began killing and blaming it on a tortured banshee. I wanted to see how much death would take place before the old man gave his money to Bain. That way if he got all the money and left me I would know that he didn't love me. And if he got all the money and stayed then he did."

"Sarah that makes no sense!" Layton yelled. "That is no way to test someones love!"

"You're right. And I realize that now. But at least I have killed the one thing that stood in his way of a fortune. Now he will get all the money regardless. And now I don't care about whether he loves me or not. At least I love him. And I will die knowing that." She pulled away from Layton and ran.

"Sarah!" Layton chased after her. "Sarah!"

"Goodbye Professor."

He turned to see her hanging a noose around her neck.

"No! stop! Sarah!"

But she jumped. It was to late to save her. He gently cut her down and laid her on the ground before he walked back to the house.

"Professor! Ilizaveta won't wake up!" Flora ran over to Layton and began to cry into his jacket.

"What?" He demanded.

"She ... she won't wake up or move."
"No ... She said she would be fine. Come Flora!" He picked the girl up in his arms and took the stairs two at a time. He could see a crowd around her room and he pushed through. Luke and Mister O'Donnell were crying over her body.

"Veta? Please wake up." Luke begged.

"My Angel. I've found you and lost you." Mister O'Donnell was sobbing loudly.

"How do you know?" Layton asked.

"That Don Paolo came and told me everything that's when I ran up here and found her."

Layton sat next to Ilizaveta. "Come now please wake up." He coaxed gently. "We'll all be lost without you." He brushed red hair from in front of her face. "Come on ..."
