Remember When Ch15 The Black Crow
It was nighttime and the Layton Group had finished watching a movie called The Black Crow.
It was about a black crow that always appeared before and after a murder had happened at a certain place the murder had remained nameless throughout the whole movie but as always Layton knew who the culprit was.
"The culprit is Samuel, the 10 year old boy who loves to climb on trees and can hang on the edge of a window without falling" Layton had explained.
Those words stayed with Luke while he laid on his bed filled with terror.
Maybe I should stay awake and solve a puzzle to keep the movie out of my mind Luke thought sitting up.
Luke grabbed a puzzle book from under his desk and grabbed a pencil as he solved a math puzzle.
Just then Luke heard a "Ca!" from a crow making him shiver.
Luke didn't bear to turn to the window.
It was dark but the twilight of the moon made it all okay but not to Luke.
Luke heard another "Ca" and grabbed his stuffed bear and hugged it tightly.
You are NOT scared you are NOT scared Luke repeated in his head.
"Good Evening, Luke" a voice said from out the window.
Luke looked out the window and saw someone he hadn't seen in a long time.
"Crow?" Luke said a bit loud.
Luke covered his mouth making sure no one heard him.
Crow was on a tree branch right in front of Luke's window and on his arm rested a Black Crow.
Luke stared at the Crow in terror.
Crow noticed and smiled as the twilight hit him from behind making him sparkle.
"Are you okay, Luke what's wrong?" Crow asked even though he knew the answer.
"It's nothing. What are you doing here anyway, Crow?" Luke asked curiously.
Crow jumped and landed right on the edge of Luke's window.
Luke was shocked and fell back in surprise.
The Black Crow on Crow's arm helped him balance on the window edge without it he would've fell.
"Why so surprised, Mayor Boy?" Crow asked mocking Luke.
"Can you stop calling me that" Luke said getting up.
"Sorry it's just been a while" Crow said stepping into Luke's room.
"Um shouldn't you leave the crow outside, Crow?" Luke asked shaking.
"This Crow gives me strength, Luke. I can't just leave it outside, it's my best friend" Crow said petting the crow.
"What's it's name?" Luke asked still a bit scared.
"His name is The Black Crow" Crow said smiling.
Luke stared at The Black Crow and didn't see any good in it's eyes which frightened Luke even more than before.
"Uh hello Black Crow" Luke said trying to smile.
"CA!" The Black Crow shouted loudly.
"Shhhh" Crow said stroking The Black Crow's feathers to calm him.
"What did I do?" Luke asked puzzled.
"He doesn't seem fond of you for some reason I guess the boy was right" Crow said still trying to calm the crow down.
"What boy? Where did you get him anyway, tell me that first, Crow?" Luke asked.
"Remember When..."
Crow started.
The Story
Luke had just left Misthallery and it was now the afternoon and Crow was organizing things for the auction tonight when Marilyn rushed in.
"Crow someone has just entered the market!" Marilyn warned.
"What's bad about that, Marilyn" Crow asked putting down a box he was carrying.
"He looks just like Luke, Boss but he claims not to be him!" Marilyn shouted.
"Did you talk to him?" Crow asked looking curiously at Marilyn.
"Yes, I asked him if he was Luke and he responded very harshly" Marilyn answered.
"What did he say back?" Crow asked.
"He said DON'T dare to say that to me or you'll be DEAD in seconds" Marilyn said rather sadly.
Crow stood in silence trying to think of what to say next.
Crow grabbed his Black Raven costume and put it on.
"Quick, Marilyn get all the members in their costumes" Crow commanded.
"But why, Boss?" Marilyn asked curiously.
"We're going to trick him into giving us the answer" Crow said grinning.
"Yes, Sir!" Marilyn said running off.
After Crow and the rest finished putting on their costumes they all hid while Crow followed the strange boy that looked like Luke.
Crow jumped off the roof and landed right in front of the boy.
The boy didn't seem fond of the surprise.
"Move!" the boy shouted rudely.
Crow laughed in his Black Raven voice.
The boy's face turned to a big frown.
The boy tried kicking Crow put failed as he started to run.
The boy chased after him but ended up being tricked when he saw the other Ravens come out and run.
The boy grew angrier and stopped and put his hand on his head trying to stop him from getting angrier.
Someone has anger issues Crow thought grinning.
The boy grabbed The Black Ravens' long coat and tugged it hard to reveal Scraps.
Scraps panicked and tripped on his own feet trying to run from the boy who was glaring at him.
(All characters except for the boy are in the game Professor Layton and the Last Specter)
The boy grabbed part of Scraps' shirt and pulled making him fall on his shoes.
Scraps looked up and saw the boy glaring at him madly.
"What do we do now, Boss" Louis asked a bit of panic in his voice.
All 8 members of The Black Ravens look at Crow.
"We help" Crow said firmly.
"But our cover, Boss" Wren objected.
"Yea, Boss our cover" Socket agreed.
"No we just leave him" Nabby commanded.
"Your not the boss of us, Nabby!" Tweeds said.
"Guys STOP fighting!" Badger shouted.
"Everyone take off your costume and help!" Crow commanded.
"Good thing your only the second boss, Nabby" Marilyn said.
Everyone took off their costumes and went out of the shadows to help Scraps.
Louis and Tweeds helped Scraps up.
"Who are you" Crow asked.
The boy whistled and a black crow flew out of no where and landed on the boy's arm.
"I have many names but I'm not telling you anything I'm looking for a boy named Luke Triton have you seen him here I was informed he lived in this town" the boy said.
"Luke isn't here" Crow said.
"Well where is he" the boy asked curious and stroking the black crow.
"I'm not saying unless you tell me your name" Crow said grinning.
The boy glared at Crow then sighed.
"Fine my name is Evil Luke" Evil Luke said.
"Who sent you" Crow asked.
"No more questions! Now where is he!" Evil Luke shouted impatient.
"He's in America in New York City" Crow said with a grin.
What is Crow planning The 8 members thought.
"That wasn't so hard was it, Mister anyway here" Evil Luke said handing the black crow to him.
"Why are you giving me this?" Crow asked curious.
"It's a thank you" Evil Luke said smiling.
Crow stared at him.
"HEY just because my name has the word Evil in it doesn't mean I can't be nice" Evil Luke said.
Crow took the black crow and set him on his arm.
"Keep him away from Luke because he was trained to kill him but you didn't hear that from me" Evil Luke whispered.
"Uh thanks" Crow said unsure of what to say.
"Oh and if your lying I WILL hunt YOU DOWN!" Evil Luke warned running off.
I guess I'm in trouble but with his name...I'm so NOT giving HIM Luke's address Crow thought.
"Now what, Boss?" Louis asked curiously.
"I don't trust that guy" Nabby said.
"I don't trust the bird" Marilyn said glaring at the crow.
"CA!" the crow crowed loudly in disagreement.
"I think I'll name him...The Black Crow" Crow said smiling.
"He looks like the Crow from the movie The Black Crow" Scraps said looking at the crow.
"This guy doesn't seem scary" Crow said stroking the crow.
"He's gone insane" Wren whispered.
"Yea" Socket whispered back in agreement.
The End
"After that day whenever Black Crow crowed the next day I always saw a murder in the daily paper" Crow added to his story.
Luke clutched his teddy bear tightly.
"Are you sure Black Crow is a safe crow" Luke said looking at the crow who looked angry at him.
"No, Black Crow" Crow said holding the crow's neck.
"Your choking him, Crow!" Luke said.
"This is how I calm him, Luke unless you want to die" Crow said clutching the crow's neck.
The Black Crow calmed down but stared at Luke.
"I think you should be careful, Crow" Luke said.
"Why?" Crow asked.
"Well you lied to Evil Luke so I wouldn't die and he said he would hunt you down and...I'm worried now" Luke said looking at Crow.
Crow stared at him and smiled.
Crow took off Luke's hat and petted him.
"Oh Luke your all soft like always" Crow said smiling kindly.
"No wonder why all the girls love you your so nice" Luke said fixing his hair.
"Enough with the complainants that aren't even true" Crow said.
"They are so true" Luke said hugging Crow.
Crow hugged back while the crow set himself down on Luke's desk.
Crow knelt down to Luke.
"Even if I die it's because I was protecting you, Luke" Crow said kindly petting Luke's head.
Luke smiled.
It was a brotherly moment.
Just then the door opened.
"Luke are you al-"
It was Layton and behind him was Flora and Clive.
Flora held a pan in her hand and Clive held a hammer while Layton held a steel pipe.
"I KNEW IT!" Clive said pointing at Luke and Crow.
Everyone was silent.
"YOU ARE GAY!" Clive shouted.
"What? But-"
Luke was cut off.
"GUILTY!" Clive shouted.
The Black Crow went back on Crow's arm as he stood.
"Crow?" Layton said confused.
"Well DUH, Layton that is a crow" Clive said referring to The Black Crow.
"My name is Crow" Crow said correcting Clive.
"Oh sorry dude" Clive said.
"Its-Its The Black Crow from the movie and it crowed" Flora said holding onto Layton's coat scared.
"Flora, your right everyone watch yourself one of us will die! And the killer is...HIM!" Clive said pointing at Crow.
"Me?" Crow said confused.
"YES YOU! You came from the window to kill little Luke here" Clive shouted raising his hammer in the air to hit Crow.
"STOP! He's a friend and it was just a movie, Clive" Luke shouted back.
The next day on the daily paper someone was murdered and not clue was identified.
Everyone still thinks it was because of The Black Crow that Crow had with him.
