Sorry guys I just realized how hard this was to read so I took the chapter off and re-posted it. I'll try not to let it happen again!
"I present to you… Project AKA!" The professor continued in an excited voice. "What does 'AKA' stand for?" Asked a random official, "Awesome Kick-butt Anti-antagonists!" A couple of officials rolled their eyes at the name. "You really are a mad scientist." Said the random official who had just asked about the name. The professor paid no heed to the insult, and then, letting out a typical mad scientist laugh, pulled a lever on the machine. The machine started to whiz and shake, and then all of the electricity went out. Everyone watched in amazement as a light that would have blinded them from up close lit up the whole room from one which seemed far away. Then the power went back on, now showing on the TV screen a room that was nothing but white, with eleven bodies, the bodies of the eleven they had just seen recently, lying unconscious on the floor.
"Let us observe, my friends, our new heroes." No one disapproved, and they all watched as the first person woke up. It was a man; he wore an orange, long-sleeved t-shirt covered by a black jacket, a pair of black pants, and a large top hat with red trim on it. He opened his eyes and immediately furrowed his brow. He sat up and looked in front of him. He wondered what all those bodies were doing there, he wondered if they were alive, he wondered what he was doing there, he wondered what was going on. He turned his torso to look behind him, and immediately jumped to his feet and ran towards a teenage boy; he wore a blue sweater, green shorts with suspenders dangling from the waist, brown shoes and a flat blue cap. The man started to shake the boy, "Wake up, Luke!" he said. The boy's eyes slowly opened.
"Pro-professor? Where are we?" "I don't know Luke, but I find all these bodies rather odd." Luke stood up and started to count the bodies. "One… two… three… four… five… six… seven… eight… EMMY!" He ran over to a woman in the corner who had long, wavy brown hair, and wore a yellow trench coat with a white shirt underneath, a pink bow-tie, white pants, a brown belt and grayish boots. He shook her ferociously until her eyes opened. "Luke? LUKE!" She threw her arms around Luke, and then looked at the professor. "Professor Layton! It's so good to see you both!" She let go of Luke, and received a big smile from the two men. "It's good to see you too, Emmy." Layton said.
"Say," Emmy said as her smile faded away. "where are we?" Layton shrugged. "I don't know, Emmy." "Hmm, I wonder if any of these people know where we are…" The three didn't have to wait very long before the professor noticed a teenage girl moaning and fidgeting in the corner of the room. She had long, orange hair with an enormous bow holding it in an even bigger ponytail, she wore a short pink dress with a belt inscribed with a P on the buckle. She wore a pink vest with another P on its left side; she also wore pink shoes and black, white and pink gloves. Layton ran over to her and put his hand on her arm. "Are you all right, Miss?" The girl opened her eyes to reveal abnormally large, pink eyes. "Where's Mojo?" Was all she bothered to ask once she laid eyes on him, she received a shrug, "I don't rightly know, Miss." was her answer. The girl sat up. "Well, do you know where we are?" She received only another shrug from Layton.
"Well," The girl stood up as she spoke. "do you at least know where my sisters are? We're all dressed alike, just in different colors." Layton smiled when she asked this, and pointed over her shoulder. The girl turned around to see a girl dressed exactly like her, only blue. Her extremely short, blond hair was in pigtails, each pigtail being in three ringlets, some loose strands of hair were dangling just a bit, and a little blue hair clip was in the right side of the front of her hair. The girl in pink went over to her sister, got on her knees and shook her gently. The girl in blue slowly opened her equally blue eyes, and upon seeing her sister, immediately threw her arms around her. "Blossom! I thought I'd lost you!" She cried for joy. "I didn't think I'd make it either!" Blossom replied and her sister let go.
The girl's smile immediately left her face as she realized that she didn't know where she was. "I don't think we're in Townsville anymore, Blossom…" Blossom shook her head, and as her sister looked around, she noticed a girl dressed exactly like her and Blossom, only green. With hair that could only be described as a black bush with a green hair clip on each side. Without a word, the girl in blue stood up and walked over to the figure, being followed by Layton, Luke, Emmy, and Blossom. The girl in blue crouched down next to her and placed her hand on her arm. And the very moment she did, the girl in green shot up to her feet and planted a swift kick straight in front of her… Straight into Professor Layton's face.
He instantly toppled onto the floor, then sat up and pressed his index finger and middle finger onto his lip to see if it was bleeding. "EEK!" The girl in green squealed once she realized what she had just done. She got down on her knees to get a closer look at the damage she'd done, pity evident in her green eyes. "Man, Dude are you all right?" Layton nodded. "That's some… kick, you've got there though." Blossom smiled when he said this. "Yeah, we may only be fourteen, but we're tougher than most people!" She stated, "I wouldn't doubt that." Layton replied. The girl in green only continued to speak as though Blossom wasn't even there. "Gee, Man, I'm so sorry! One moment I think I'm about to kick Mojo in the face, the next you appear out of nowhere!" "That's quite all right, Miss." "Please, call me Buttercu-" She stopped in her tracks and looked around at the nearly empty room. "or was it me that appeared out of nowhere?" Layton shook his head, "No, it wasn't just you, I think we all just appeared out of nowhere." he said. "Buttercup, right?" Buttercup nodded.
"Yeah, the one in the pigtails is Bubbles, and the bigheaded one next to her is Blossom." "HEY! I'M NOT BIGHEADED!" Blossom complained, but Buttercup just ignored her. She stood up and held out her right hand to Layton. He took the offer, and placed his left hand onto the floor to help get up. But before he could even move, Buttercup yanked on his arm so hard that he flew to his feet and would have fallen back onto the floor if it weren't for Buttercup holding on to his hand until he got his balance back. "Thank you, Buttercup." "Your welcome!" Buttercup left the conversation at that, and started to look around at the remaining five unconscious bodies lying on the ground. She walked over to the first one that caught her attention, it was a man, he wore orange monk-like clothing and a large wooden necklace. He was also bald and had a short beard, with blue arrows coming across what little you could see of the back of his neck, all the way across the top of his head and onto his forehead, and on what little you could see of the back of his hands.
Buttercup walked over to the body and nudged at him with her foot, just hard enough to cause him to roll once or twice across the floor. She did so again when he didn't respond, and when he didn't respond after the second time, she, in frustration, kicked at him so hard that he went flying across the room, bashing into the wall and just barely failing to crack it. Immediately upon the very loud impact, he and the other five bodies gained consciousness, stood up, and took fighting stances. Everyone else in the room put their hands in the air as if the other five were the police. Everyone stood where they were without a word for a while, observing each other and thinking about what to do next. Except for a woman with black hair that was put up, a uniform-like metal outfit with a badge over her heart, and blank eyes which made it obvious that she was blind. She was the only one not to observe anyone, but seemed to be just as capable of telling where everyone was as everyone else in the room. Other than her and the bald man, there was one woman and two men.
The woman had long, brown hair and was dressed similarly to the bald man, except that outfit didn't have nearly as much detail. And, instead of a large wooden necklace, she wore a piece of blue lace around her neck with an odd blue pendant with a symbol that appeared to represent water on it. The first man looked a lot like her; you could tell at first glance that he was her brother. He had short, brown hair that was put up into a ponytail. He had a short beard, and was dressed in an odd blue outfit that no one in the room who hadn't met him before had ever seen in their lives. The other man had extremely long, black hair that was all loose except for a small area that was put up into a bun on the top of his head. With an odd fire-shaped hair accessory that could only stay on his head because of the bun. He wore a strange, red, war-like outfit and had a large scar on his left eye. After a while of standing idly staring at each other, the bald man spoke up, "Who are you? And what are we doing here?" he asked in more of an intimidating voice than was expected. "Yeah!" Echoed the blind woman. "Tell us OR ELSE!"
Buttercup furrowed her brow, "WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE!" she yelled at them. Layton stopped Buttercup before she hurt anyone. "I'm Professor Hershel Layton, the woman in yellow over there is Emmy Altava, the boy is Luke, the one with the red hair is Blossom, the blond one is Bubbles, and this young lady is Buttercup." Buttercup groaned, "Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup Utonium…" She mumbled almost in correction. Layton continued. "We know as much about where we are and why we are here as all of you… um… Sir." "The name's Aang, Avatar Aang." Said the bald man as he stood normally. "The woman dressed like me is my wife, Katara, the woman with the black hair is a friend of our's, Toph. The brunet is my brother-in-law Sokka, and the man with the black hair is another friend of our's, Zuko. It's ok, guys; I don't think these people mean any harm." Everyone else stood normally, "Eh, I'll believe you," said Toph and she crossed her arms. "it's not like he's lying." Layton looked at her in curiosity, "You seem very sure of yourself, Toph, how do you know I'm not lying?"
