"Hey, um, hi! Um-" The girl stuttered. "I'm-"
"My niece, Beatrice." Xandermon said, cutting her off before she could say as much. She rolled her eyes.
"Interesting…" Professor Layton said as he stroked his chin. "Have you ever read the works of Dante, by chance?" Beatrice nodded excitedly.
"I have! I's ok, but a little dark for my tastes… The first two of Inferno, that is." Layton nodded in agreement. "You guys can call me Teddy, by the way. Beatrice is m formal name." Everyone nodded.
"Let's get started on the training!" Xandermon cried out before anyone could say anything else. He opened the other door and let everyone inside. The group had found themselves in yet another white, empty room.
"Another white, empty room." Sokka stated correctly.
"With special properties." Xandermon almost corrected. He pulled a small remote control from his pocket and pressed a button on it. The next thing everyone knew, they were looking as if on a screen at a city. Screaming people were running everywhere, and a giant robot was wreaking havoc on everything. "This, my friends, is what we have to deal with. This robot is going to terrorize the city for an unknown amount of time before it drops a nuclear bomb big enough to wipe out the entire state of Oklahoma! Your mission is to disable the robot while the people try to find shelter in some nuclear bunkers we have lying around. You may help them get to safety instead of working on the robot, but I think it would be wiser to disable the thing first and save EVERYONE rather than the few you help. Are you ready to start?" All the other-dimensional people nodded, and Xandermon pressed another button which caused the screen scene to become what appeared to be reality.
Professor Layton immediately started to talk. "We've dealt with something of this sort before." He said, referencing his first real adventure in his version of London. "I think that the Utonium girls and Zuko should attack the body of the robot and try to slow it down. Aang and Toph should try and find a way inside in order to disable the main danger here, the bomb. Sokka, Emmy, Luke and I should try to disable the legs, and Katara should go around and help any ingured people." Everyone seemed to agree, except Blossom.
"Who do you think you are?" Layton was confused. "Who are you to go around giving us orders like that?"
Emmy jumped in before Layton could answer. "Someone who's dealt with this kind of thing before, and knows what he's doing!"
"My sisters and I have also dealt with giant robots before, probably more than him! If anyone's gonna give orders, it's gonna be me!" Emmy looked rather offended.
"Never! Layton is the obvious leader here! He should be the one giving orders!" The two bickered for a few seconds before Xandermon whistled as loudly as he possibly could in order to get everyone's attention.
"I'm the leader here." He said plainly. "But if we MUST have one special person to make all the plans, then lets find out who that special person is!" He pressed another button on the remote, twice this time, and two more robots came out of nowhere. "We've started time over. Untoniums, you take one, Professor Layton Squad, you take another, and Team Avatar, you take the last one. Let's see which team can disable their robot the fastest!"
Sokka smirked at the sound of "Team Avatar". "I told you it would catch on! Now Toph and Aang, you two do what Layton said and try to disable the bomb. Zuko, Katara, you two help me slow it down!" And they all got to work.
Now it was Blossom's turn to give her team orders. "Girls, attack!" And just like that, they all started flew up and punching and kicking at the giant robot with what seemed like fists and feet of steel.
And finally, the Professor Layton Squad's turn to start with their villain. "Emmy, Luke, try to disable the legs. I'll try and find a way inside to disable the bomb." Emmy and Luke nodded, and the three went straight to the task.
Not an hour later, the three teams still weren't done with their robots. The Utonium girls were just not strong enough to destroy the thing by brute force. Sokka, Zuko and Katara couldn't slow down the robot, and Toph and Aang couldn't disable the bomb with how much the robot was moving. As for Layton and his friends, Emmy and Luke could only disable two legs of the four the robot had, and Layton couldn't find a way into the robot to disable the bomb.
All of a sudden, everything went white. An explosion from seemingly far away echoed in everyone's ears. And there they were once more, standing in the almost empty room, not completely empty only because of them and the screen which read "FAILURE".
"You guys ready to work together now?" Xandermon asked with an annoyed look in his eyes. Everyone nodded, except Blossom. But she came around a few second of silence later. "Good. Teddy will be giving the orders around here." She gave him a questioning, fearful look. As if to say "But I can't!" Her uncle smiled at her and nodded. "You know more about these guys and the robots than they do! You'll be fine!" She sighed and nodded slightly.
One more simulation. This time, Teddy gave the orders. "Everyone! Um… Do what Professor Layton said!" That they did. And whether or not it was the tactics or the teamwork that did it, they managed to save the city.
"So," Emmy asked as she wiped the sweat from her face. "why don't you countries just get together and bomb these people back?" Xandermon sighed.
"Because I don't know how, but they managed to take all out bombs from us…"
