Trial of the Century!

[phoenixwright]

Phoenix stepped into the prosecution lobby at the early morn hours of 7 am. He rolled his neck side to side to stretch. Slowly walking around the lobby, the site of Maya caught his attention. She carried an air of slight excitement in her gait and her eyes were more sparkly then usual.

"Good Morning, Nick!" said Maya rather enthusiastically.
"OH!" Phoenix's eyes raised up as he replied "Morning, Mia!"

"I think you've been through enough trials to understand.. You've got yourself a huge case on your hands now and with plenty of experience on your side this should be a swift and certain victory!" Mia said with a beam of sagely excitement as she swatted the air with a clenched fist.

Phoenix shifted his weight to one side of his body as he replied, "Of course, Maya. Without your help I wouldn't be where I am. But strictly speaking, this isn't just any 'huge' case per se.. it's probably the biggest in the world right now! So there's a lot of pressure on me at this moment. I mean, Dr. Wily has.."

Phoenix was interrupted by the loud sounds of metallic clinking that could only be described as catastrophic by todays standards!

[Dr. Wily]

The doors to the court room burst open dramatically as the notorious criminal mastermind was ushered into the room, shackled by his wrists and ankles as if he were some inhuman beast. He was flanked by a pair of armed guards, who appeared poised to stop him if he dared try anything. In his prison uniform he barely seemed mighty or imposing, but humble.

He was walked up to the defense table, where he sat down beside his lawyer, the sounds of his chains clanking and clattering as he did so. He frowned, glaring at the members of the jury and at the judge. How dare they treat their future ruler in such a manner. He'd show them. He'd show them all. As he secretly plotted his revenge a smile came to his lips, and he let out a faint chuckle.

Phoenix gulped. This is the first time he's ever seen an evil genius y'know.. and not to mention he'll be prosecuting against him. Nonetheless, with ample study time on the court evidence and the background on Dr. Wily.. he's sure to bring Wily to JUSTICE!
Of course.. he's surely not novice when it comes to Edgeworth's objections..

He skimmed through the manila folder to see the charges that were pressed against Dr. Wily.

"Possession of Weapons of Mass Time Distortion.. Possession of confidential and classified information.. Total disregard for the elderly. Well, this is a first."
(Whew.. no way Edgeworth can plant evidence on this one!)

[Miles Edgeworth]

Miles Edgeworth didn't like this one bit, it seemed like a nightmare he wasn't going to awaken from soon... it didn't seem right at all. Wright was the prosecutor of this case? It didn't sit well with him at all. And this deeply bothered him... as reflected by rubbing his temples.

He was doomed to failure against Wright... this old, possibly insane, man. He was guilty, Edgeworth could tell from the case against him. There was little evidence to go against the accusations, and it would be a quick victory for the spikey haired nuisance.

He rubbed his temple, Wright was a black cat in human form, he was positive of this now.

[Dr. Wily]

He scowled at the lawyer sitting beside him. It didn't reassure him any that this man was rubbing his temples and genuinely looking defeated before the trial had even began. "Stop looking so pitiful, it demeans us both! They have nothing on me, nothing! This trial will be a breeze." The wicked scientist whispered to Edgeworth.

When the Reality Crash started and he determined he could freely journey to the past, he thought for sure he had the earth in the bag this time. After all, such primitive times didn't offer laser rays, robots, or, worst of all, Mega Man. His eyes narrowed just thinking about that name. But he had underestimated the other local heroes of the past, which wound up to his current situation.

[Miles Edgeworth]

"Nothing on you?" Edgeworth glared at his client, not quite remembering exactly how he agreed into defending this mad scientist, "I doubt that, unless you have evidence in your favor.. this case will be a breeze for Wright."

As much as he hated to admit it.

[Dr. Wily]

He scowled, his thick eyebrows twitching in aggravation. "Bah! Such incompetence your era's court system functions at to have assigned me such a lackluster defense attorney!" He snapped angrily, turning away from Edgeworth as his eyes scanned the other attendees of the court room. "I'd have been better off defending myself! After all, I am a genius. Buahaha!" Praising himself seemed to lift his spirits a bit as he grinned devilishly.

[Miles Edgeworth]

"Despite my better judgement, it is my duty to defend you for a Not Guilty verdict." Egdeworth replied, staring toward Wright for a moment, "...Even if I have to bluff my way into it, like Wright has."

It helped the defense attourney in blue time and time again, he and Franziska von Karma had been defeated in such a way many times. A smirk came to the sharply dressed man and he glanced to Wily, "...Dr. Wily, I'll see what I can do for you. If you have any surprise evidence that'll contradict anything Wright may say hidden, it would be wise to allow me to submit it."

He might have to do his usual routine and submit last minute evidence, or doctored evidence as people claimed he did.

Phoenix made his way into the court room and took his respective place in front of the jury. There he opened up a briefcase.. and out slipped a note. "That's funny.. who would do this?" He thought. Maya, being the curious girl as she ever was picked it up immediately. "Oooooh, looks like someone has a word with you, Nick!" exclaimed the cheeky girl. "Erm.. let me see that," said Nick, grabbing the note out of her hand. The letter read, "Meet me in the prosecution lobby as soon as you get this, it's VERY important and concerns your case! -X"

"X.. hrmm.. this is pretty serious, I wonder if I should go outside and talk to him? Well, I've nothing to lose by doing so." thought Phoenix.

[Dr. Wily]

He looks across the court room to see Phoenix eagerly reading some sort of note. From the look on his face, it was apparent that the note held some sort of intriguing information. Wily perked an eyebrow, his mouth sinking further into a frown. "What is that Prosecutor over there up to? I don't much care for that gleam in his eye! He has some nerve prosecuting me, a scientific genius!" He grumbled, giving Phoenix the evil eye.

[phoenixwright]

Phoenix looked about the room with an unnerving eye.
"I best make it out there quick.. maybe I should grab a cup of fresh water while I'm.." Phoenix didn't even excuse himself as he got out of the booth and made way to the exit.
"HEY YOU! You can't go out yet!" exclaimed Maya.
Phoenix's arm shot up with a single index finger in the air, which meant "one minute!"
As he passed the two police officers and an astounding amount of ninja-foolery as he also had to dodge an eager crowd of press, he seemingly made his way into an empty hall. It was empty except for one person..

"X.. I assume?" Phoenix said inquisitively.

The figure turned around and seemed to be wearing a not-so-mysterious overcoat and fedora hat. However, his white fluffy beard was sticking out enough for Phoenix to grab a glimpse of his face.
