Hey. Sorry its been a while since I last updated. I've been really busy with reports and projects sooo yeah. I am like already almost done writing the story, I just haven't had time to type it out... Oh and GUESS WHAT? I JUST GOT PROFESSOR LAYTON AND THE LAST SPECTOR LAST WEEKEND! Lol anyways enjoy.
Clive's POV
I went out for a walk in the forest. I just felt... I don't know, down.
Aunt Julia, I will never forgive her. Why should I?
Suddenly, I heard a car coming towards here. Who would be driving here at this time of night?
As the car approached I realized who it was.
THE Professor Layton? There was also a lady in the passenger seat. She looked familiar, almost like Tina... Wait is it Tina?
I ran onto the path so that the Professor would stop.
The Professor slammed the brakes and skidded to a stop. He and the lady got out of the car. I was lying on the ground pretending to be unconscious, I just listened.
"chrissy, do you know who this is?" the Professor asked.
"Yes Professor, this is Clive Harris."
"Is he related to the mayor?"
"Yes, her son, but he lead himself to believe that our mayor, Irene is actually her twin sister Julia. He is convinced that Irene died in the time maching accident but she actually didn't. I kinda feel sorry for him."
"Yes that is quite sad."
I slowly opened my eyes. "Tina?" I said.
"Yes Clive, you know me as Tina Schreiber. I'm really Chrissy Penya, a detective of Castella."
"What?"
"Yes, I'm sorry, but I had to investigate. It is my job after all. And what I say reguarding Irene and Julia is true. I don't know if you'll believe me or not, but it was worth a shot."
"If it's true then... I killed my aunt for no reason and I'm holding my mother captive? I am a horrible person," I was breaking down now as you could tell...
"Hey do not say that. You can fix this... Wait!" she ran to the car and she came back with an accoustic guitar. She began to play a slow melody then said, "My older sister used to sing this to me when I messed up or if thing were going all wrong."
I guess you really did it this time Wasn't it easier in your lunchbox days? It's alright, just wait and see Did some things you can't speak of Wasn't it easier in your firefly-catchin' days? It's alright, just wait and see Time turns flames to embers It's alright, just wait and see Lost your balance on a tightrope.
Left yourself in your warpath
Lost your balance on a tightrope
Lost your mind tryin' to get it back
Always a bigger bed to crawl into
Wasn't it beautiful when you believed in everything
And everybody believed in you?
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you've been.
You're still an innocent,
You're still an innocent.
But at night you live it all again
You wouldn't be shattered on the floor now
If only you would seen what you know now then
When everything out of reach, someone bigger brought down to you
Wasn't it beautiful runnin' wild 'til you fell asleep
Before the monsters caught up to you?
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you've been
You're still an innocent
It's okay, life is a tough crowd
32, and still growin' up now
Who you are is not what you did.
You're still an innocent.
You'll have new Septembers
Every one of us has messed up too
Lives change like the weather
I hope you remember
Today is never too late to be brand new
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you've been
You're still an innocent.
It's okay, life is a tough crowd
32, and still growin' up now
Who you are is not what you did
You're still an innocent.
You're still an innocent.
It's never too late to get it back.
A tear ran down my face. "Thanks Chrissy..." I said turning red.
Layton smiled, "Well, shall we go on then?"
Chrissy nodded then looked at me. "Are you coming with us Clive?" she asked.
"Yes, I must fix this," I replied.
The three of us got into the car and drove off.
Luke's POV
It was starting to get a bit borimg. It's only been five hours, but it felt like days.
I was really hungry, but I gave my bag of potato crisps to Flora. She tried to offer me some, but I refused.
"Hey Luke, do you think the Professor will ever find us?" Flora asked.
"Of course he will Flora. The Professor can do anything.
"I know, I'm just a bit scared is all."
I put my hand on her shoulder. "It's alright, you don't have to be nervous. I'm here. You do trust me right?"
She started crying her eyes out and I received an unexpected hug.
"Of cours I trust you! Why would you even ask that?"
Oh no, did I say something wrong? I returned the embrace. Don't worry, we will get out of here eventually." I looked into her eyes.
"Yeah... Sorry about yelling..."
"It's okay, and Flora?"
"Yes?"
"I-I have a confession to make... I really really like you. And if we make it out of this alive, will you be my girlfriend?" That didn't sound too lame did it?
"I really like you too Luke... Yes."
Dimitri's POV
I was about to go outside to take out the trash. I would have had Tina or Clive do it, but I could not find either of them. Paul seems to have mysteriously disappeared as well.
It was strange, sometimes I forget my purpose of why I'm doing this, sometimes I even question it! Maybe I just felt kind of alone in this world. Maybe that is my reasoning... Well I can figure that out later.
Just then I heard a car approaching. Who would be driving in this forest? Especially this late when you can barely see a thing? I thought.
As the noise became louder I could now see the car. Professor Layton? W-wait Clive and Tina? What is going on here? I decided to hide so I could listen. The car stopped and the trio got out.
Layton's POV
We finally arrived at Dimitri's base. It wasn't much of a base, it looked more like an old abandoned fortress.
"Well here we are," Clive said.
"Yes, but we can't be spotted," Chrissy said.
"Alright, I guess you two should lead the say," I said.
We walked into the building. ON both sides of the foyer there was a flight of stairs.
"Which way shall we go?"
"Well Luke and Flora are in a room that the stairs on the right lead to and Grace, Kaylynn, and Irene are in a room that the stairs on the left lead to," Clive siad.
"I say we should split up," Chrissy suggested.
"Yes, that would be best."
"Which way do you want to go?" Chrissy asked me.
"I..." That was a difficult question to answer.
"I can go to the left," Clive said. "Chrissy you can go with the Professor to the right."
"Okay... Please be careful though," she said. Clive nodded.
As we began to part ways, Clive looked back at me. "Don't worry, I'll make sure she is safe."
I nodded understanding completely. I turned around and caught up to Chrissy to find Luke and Flora.
Okay so what do you think? It starts to get confusing after this. By the way if you're curious the whole story has, the prologue, 13 chapters and an epilogue. And I will be writing a sequel :) Lol hope you liked it and PLEASE REVIEW!
