A voice came over the loud speaker. "The People are real, the cases are real, the rulings are final. This is the courtroom of Judge Izumi Curtis…" it boomed and ttrailed off.
A strong, muscular man was wearing a khaki uniform standing beside an oak podium. "All rise for the honorable judge!" His voice rang out. His gruff exterior made him excellent for the job of Bailiff. His short beard lined his face and he looked as if he would be ready to kill anyone at any moment. His name was Siguar Curtis and he stood completely still as a woman walked across the room to the podium.
The woman was wearing one of those funny judge dress things, complete with a lacey collar. She had brown dreadlocks died back in a ponytail with just a few stragglers hanging in her face. Her skin was extremely pale, and her face stern. Her cold, black eyes pierced through the silence as she took a seat. "EVERYBODY SIT!" she yelled at the top of her lungs.
A boy about 4'11" was at a stand labeled "defendant" in front of Izumi. His long blonde hair was in a braid but his bangs still framed his face. He wore a red coat that extended to his kneed and a black leather outfit underneath. A silver chain connected from his pocket to his belt loop. His hands were covered with white gloves and his Amber eyes widened dramatically as he stared at the judge. He went by the name of Edward Elric, but was also commonly referred to as the Fullmetal Alchemist.
In a stand to the right of him, labeled plaintiff stood another boy. He was about 7 feet tall and was dressed completely in a suit of armor, or rather, he WAS a suit of armor. He had a tawny colored loin cloth tied around his waist and a strange looking feather thing on his helmet. His name was Alphonse Elric.
"Plaintiff, state your case." Judge Izumi's voice rang out boeredly overt the courtroom.
"My brother won't let me have a kitten! And I'm suing him for putting me in this armor!" Al exclaimed angrily.
"Al! We don't have the ab-" "SILENCE!" Izumi yelled, cutting Ed off. "I didn't give you permission to speak, Alphonse, please continue." She said, already becoming annoyed.
Al nodded. "Y-Yes ma'am." He stuttered and continued. "You see, it all happened 5 years ago…" he began. "Mom had just died and we were going to bring him back. However, something went wrong with the transmutation, and so he put me in this body. Then, just earlier this year, it was raining, and there was this cute little kitten, and he was all alone! Ed wouldn't let me keep him! He never let's me do anything!" He sounded almost in tears.
"I object!" Ed yelled. "Shut up!" replied Izumi. "And stop blubbering!" Al lookd up surprised. "Now, for our defendant." She said ever so flatly.
"Well….." Ed began. "When the experiment went wrong so many years ago, I panicked and I was trying to save him. I looked around for anything human shaped and all I could find was a dancing hula girl that you put on your dash board and a suit of armor. I got the feeling that Al wouldn't be too happy wearing a coconut bra for the rest of his life so I attached his soul to the suit of armor. And as far as the kitten goes, we have no means to take care of it!" he said defensively and put his hands on his hips.
Izumi rolled her eyes and range the mallet. "You're BOTH morons!" she growled. "Ed, let Al have the cat, Al, deal with the body! Case dismissed!" Izumi yelled. "Now get out of my sight!" She picked up some files and strolled out of the room and Ed and Al walked out as well.
Ed stood outside the door talking to the camera man. "Well, I still don't think we can take care of a kitten, but I guess the rulings are final and we'll just have to deal with it…" he said and shrugged as the camera moved over to Al. "I get a kitten, I get a kitten!" he gloated doing a happy dance.
The announcer came over the speaker once more. "This have been Judge Izumi." It boomed and went off.
