Professor Layton and mistress of earth
Chapter 7 the past; the darkness/sadness of the heart
Sakura sat on the couch trying to think of a way to explain to the professor about her encounter with Anthony. She decided not to tell him eventually, got up outside and looked at the sun setting. She looked down towards her pendant remembering her life long before this.
10 years ago (sakura age 5): she was only 5 when she lost her mother elyon, who was the previous earth mistress. Before that, on her birthday: 'mommy!! Hurry please.' 'Sakura honey please calm down, you'll get mommy's gift in a moment. Mommy returned with a small rectangular box. Sakura opened it and saw it, the earth pendant. She was happy in shock. 'See mommy cares about you. I've always been so happy seeing how curious you were about the pendant, so I decided to give it to you.' She started to cry and glomped on her mom, 'mommy you're the greatest!!' her mom smiled and hugged her little girl back. 'I love you.' Her mom kissed her forehead gently. 'Sakura, mommy has to go out.' 'Where?' 'The city…the inspector needs me to help him figure out who's killing the people.' 'Mommy take me with you.' Her mom noticed her crying. 'Sakura don't worry, your sisters and daddy will take care of you.' She went out the door hearing sakura yell, 'wait mom, you have to promise me you'll come home!! Please mom!!' a few weeks later her dad got a letter that shattered his heart. The letter told him his wife was dead, when sakura found out she cried her heart out.
Sakura age 19: she had suffered enough abuse from her sister aki. After she left, her father went crazy. This was because she looked like her mother; everyone thought she was her mom. Daddy went beyond thought and did the one thing no one ever thought he do: suicide. When sakura learned of this, yet again crying her heart out.
Present day: she sat there crying, she lost her mom while she was 5 and her dad committed suicide while she was 19. Her life sucked and thought she's nothing but a burden to everyone. She heard the door open, 'don't tell me he followed me here. Leave me alone Anthony!!' Layton heard and followed her voice and came on the balcony. 'Layton I'm sorry, I've just had a very bad day.' Layton helped her up and both walked in the back room. 'Layton, there's some bit of me you don't know: my mom was the original earth mistress but she died here in this city, I was only 5. My dad committed suicide because I left and I looked like my mom. So basically he couldn't live with out me.' Layton noticed her crying and hugged her trying to make her feel better. 'I'm just a burden to everyone around me.' 'No, I think you're unique and strong.' She hugged back as her way of saying 'thank you'.
The dark bit: she looked out the window of the full moon and recalled the memory of that night, her first boyfriend died trying to protect her. The 2 were walking the streets, her smiling and him holding her tightly in her arms. Then he came out and demanded that the 2 hand over their money. He used him self as a human shield but when that happen, the gun was shot, and the bullet went for his heart and only managed to cut her shoulder. The man ran off and she was left with a dead boyfriend.
