Only the Crickets Sang
Chapter One
A Cruel Irony
Miles woke up in a hospital bed. He was next to Phoenix, whom was already up. Phoenix lay in bed with Miles. He looked at Phoenix's stud and held him tighter. "Why did this have to happen?" He asked. Miles had only broken bones and a concession. His left leg and left arm were broke in the explosion.
"Someone really wanted to stop the celebration of that case finally ended." Phoenix said, "They had a target. I just do not know who and we are in no shape to investigate."
Miles said, "What about Klavier and Apollo?"
"Emergency surgery, they would be lucky to survive let alone walk."
"When will Athena be here with our food and gifts?" Miles asked as he looked out the window. He heard Athena and Juniper walk in. He looked over to see lots of flowers. Athena gave them both their dinner and desserts on the tray.
"Sorry I'm late I had to deal with the press. That evil bitch of a defense attorney Loco has been hailed as a hero. Also some criminals escaped unnoticed in the chaos. There are lots of protests and riots going on over what happened," Athena said.
Miles said, "You think Lana Loco is involved in anyway with the bombing?"
Phoenix said, "Either indirectly or directly I just know she came out unharmed and a hero."
They waited until they found out the results of the other men's surgeries. Klavier recovered quite nicely while Apollo was in a coma. Klavier was in the bed next to them. They were going to be discharged soon with live in care until they fully recovered. Klavier said, "I am going to stay with Apollo."
Athena took Miles and Phoenix back to the mansion. Miles got on one of the huge couch out of his. He turned on the TV and Adrian Andrews was the news anchor.
Andrews said, "Fifty people dead and a thousand injured. The celebration after the trial turned to tragedy. The person who did this wanted to bring us despair and attack a place for justice and safety."
It cut to Lana Loco speaking to survivors and getting awards. Miles wondered if Kristoph was dead. Phoenix sat on the couch. He never saw Phoenix so traumatized.
Miles called his butler and told him to help them into the tub. They got into Miles' hot tub. Phoenix kissed and sucked on Miles neck. He said, "I need to feel your body against mine. "
-The Gavin Mansion-
"Did I get you your revenge?" Lana asked as she ran her index finger against his inner thigh. Kristoph pulled her onto his bed.
"Yes Edgeworth is in complete and utter despair and Apollo is in a coma. So how about I make you feel on top of the world. Not that you already aren't you crazy bitch!" Kristoph said.
Lana said, "Do your kinkiest and finally no more fucking in your prison cell!"
"Just my sex dungeon that my brother took to 'make love' with the defense attorney Apollo Justice, " Kristoph said as grabbed Lana by the chin. He pushed his lips against hers.
She broke the kiss to take off her button down and bra. She had too many interviews and talk shows for the rest of her life. Her back ached from her perky, round, and large breasts. She said as he took off his clothes, "Herr Kristoph, what will we do if Klavier comes home?"
"Torture and kill him," Kristoph said. Kristoph grinned as he ripped the rest of her clothes off. Shreds of cloth flew around the room as their lips smashed together and she coiled around him like a python.
"How about a threesome with him? Dying would be an easy route for him," Lana said as she let him enter her. He pinned her arms up as he thrusts into her.
"Smart idea considering he loves Apollo. The despair would destroy him." Kristoph smirked as he put his head against her soft warm breasts. Climaxing was long and pleasurable for the both of them.
They both took a quick shower and Lana put on Klavier's maroon shirt and leather pants. She also put on his gaudy jewelry. She went out to Kristoph who watched the news. He chuckled at her interview and said, "If only they knew the real you." She sat on his lap and put his hands on her exposed breasts.
"I think Dahlia Hawthorne would cringe if she met me," Lana said. He sucked her nipples as they watched the news. Lana could not wait for Klavier to come home.
"Here let me act out Klavier for you," Lana said smirking, "Oh Apollo! Touch me there again and I will fuck you even harder and kinkier."
-The Edgeworth Mansion-
Miles got on his laptop and looked up the defense attorney. Several results came up. Miles looked at Phoenix sleeping in his bed and a tear moved down his face. What motive would that defense attorney to bomb the courthouse? He found an article that peaked his interest.
"A Unauthorized Biography of Lana Loco
By Anonymous
Lana Mae Loco or Lana Mae (former stage name) had an interesting past before she became a defense attorney. Her parents were unable to be located for this article. Her earliest known whereabouts are in Germany with the Gavin family. She grew up with Kristoph and Klavier.
During that time period her and Kristoph joined a gang and her nickname was 'Loco' due to her dramatic behavior. The gang was not a street gang in a poverty filled neighborhood but a mafia-like organization. She might have been young but she was more ruthless than Kristoph Gavin.
When they went to the US both strived to stop their bad ways. Both wanted to become defense attorneys and started their affair during that time. They had a massive age difference. She started modeling at 17 and rumor has it three years before she had lost her virginity to Kristoph?
Despite Klavier being the same age as her they never got along and the fact they worked together during her modeling career. At 18 one of her most controversial magazine covers were for a porn magazine with Kristoph and Klavier nude sucking on her inner thighs. The magazine included a full spread of her and Kristoph's mating rituals and why she chose him instead of the rock star Klavier.
Life came crashing down when she found out Kristoph Gavin was in prison for murder and his affair with the Chief Prosecutor Miles Edgeworth. She turned into an innocent, strong woman taking the law scene by storm as a defense attorney. She used her former gang name as her surname.
Now at 25 she is a hero and a compassionate defense attorney. She wanted to become a defense attorney because she knows people can change."
Miles groaned. He wanted to find out about this demon's home life. He realized he had to read those less savory magazines to find out the truth. He motioned Phoenix to come over to him. "Come over here I found an article that could help us!" He said.
Phoenix got up and sat on the office chair next to Miles' wheelchair. "We will need to send this and other stuff we find to Athena and Prosecutor Blackquill. They can help with the psych profile thing," Phoenix said.
Miles said, "I am going to call them now." Miles took out his cell and called Blackquill. Miles said, "Good morning I need both you and Athena at my mansion for some investigating. You can make love with Athena later."
"Yes Edgeworth-domo," Blackquill said.
Miles waited for those two to arrive before they dug deeper into Lana Loco's past. They arrived quickly and blushing. They got some office chairs and gathered around Miles. "I guess I should expect working night shifts now with this case," Athena said.
"I see even on sick leave you want to work Edgeworth-domo," Blackquill said.
"This defense attorney told her story through very explicit magazines. I need help reading all these articles and I want a profile of this defense attorney before morning," Miles said.
They read over the magazines and Athena took notes on what she said in the interviews or editorials she wrote in them. Blackquill and Miles profiled her mannerisms in the magazines. So far they had come up with three things: her real last name, which is Sultan, before meeting the Gavin's' she grew up in a cult, and is planning to marry Kristoph Gavin. Athena said, "Now we got to search up the Sultan family and that cult."
They fall asleep after going over too many searches. They woke up in the afternoon. Miles groaned. They had only came up so much stuff on their suspect of the bombing. Miles got a letter in the mail.
Dear Miles Edgeworth,
I am sorry to say this but we have named a new Chief Prosecutor. Due to the circumstances you are getting an early retirement. Both you and Phoenix Wright will have workman's compensation that will last for the rest of your lives. We will catch the monster that attacked the heart of the justice system. We will email the candidates for Chief Prosecutor. Please choose one who will follow your legacy.
From,
The Prosecutors' Office
Miles said, "Because of that psycho bomber I lost my job. I lost the ability to change how prosecutors act and how they investigate the crimes. Most importantly I lost my peace of mind." Phoenix put his arm around Miles and kissed him.
"We can still investigate and find the truth," Phoenix said.
Miles said, "I hope."
-Gavin Mansion-
Lana looked over her client's case when she heard a knock on the door. She grabbed a knife and put it in her robe pocket. She opened the door to see Klavier. He looked melancholy and distracted. Klavier got in and went to his room. He must have been looking for something probably for Apollo. Lana snuck behind him and when she had the chance she hit him with a nearby lamp. He fell instantaneously and she called Kristoph over to move him to the dungeon.
"The bastard was going to come home one day," Kristoph said. They cuffed Klavier to the wall. Lana took off her robe and Kristoph's too.
"If there is any blood we want to be able to wash it off quickly," Lana said. There was a hint of glee in her voice. Klavier woke up and Lana unzipped his leather pants.
"Bruder, how did you escape and who is this?" He asked.
"Lana 'Loco' Sultan do you remember her?" Kristoph said as he put a needle into his brother's nipple. Klavier gasped.
"Y-yes she practically grew up with us and like you was never right in the head, " Klavier said. Lana bit his length till she felt the iron taste of blood in her mouth.
"Do you want to be nicer and let us pleasure you or do you want to die before Apollo wakes up?" Lana asked.
"Fine but only for Apollo," Klavier said.
"Fantastic!" Lana said as she smiled. Kristoph ripped his brother's clothes off. He took him off the wall and onto a bed. Lana got on top of Klavier. She tied his arms to the bedpost. She got on top of him as Kristoph went on top of her. She put her tongue in Klavier's gaping mouth. Kristoph sucked on her breasts as she tortured Klavier.
"Tell anyone Kristoph has escaped and you will be six feet under before the detectives can investigate," Lana said. She sat on his member.
"Why did you become a defense attorney?" Klavier asked. He felt her going up and down on his now hard member. Lana could see the guilt in his eyes.
Lana said, "I wanted to change my image from that disgraceful image I once had. What is a better way than becoming a lawyer who helps the helpless? I would be innocent and loved again by the public. The hero image only adds to it."
Kristoph stuck his shaft up Klavier's hole. Lana watched him groan and shudder. She finished and had begun to whip Klavier. Lana heard several footsteps and stopped. "We need to hide Kristoph or we are fucked!" She whispered. They hid in another room in the dungeon.
-The Gavin Mansion-
Miles held onto both Blackquill and Phoenix as they searched for Klavier. Ema Skye led the way with a flashlight. "You think a fugitive is really here?" She asked.
"I'm more worried about Klavier at the moment," Miles said. They ran down to the dungeon to see Klavier tied up and bloody. Before they could think of what to do next they passed out.
Miles woke up further in the dungeon. He was with Klavier in what looked like a cell. Klavier said, "Kristoph escaped from prison and is with his crazy ass lover Lana. I wonder what they will do to us. Add more to their kill count."
Miles looked around the cell. Him and Klavier were pressed together with a toilet and a doggy door to give them food. They were chained to the wall by their arms. "So this is a new kind of evil for us to deal with?"
"I hope we don't have to deal with any electronic, talking, stuffed animals who are complete sadists. I saw that happen a lot in the movies," Klavier said.
"They're not engineers plus they want to go out with a bang. They seem to know they will be caught," Miles said, "And damn it where is Phoenix and what are they doing to him!" They had begun to knock on the wall. Kristoph came over to them.
"Don't worry everyone will get a chance with Lana," He said. He winked.
Miles yelled, "Are you doing this because you're jealous of Phoenix or a completely different motive entirely? When we were at Path of Paradise I thought you were a gentleman who would protect me but I do not need protecting anymore."
"I am surprised that you are not completely pathetic anymore. I have some special torture for you," Kristoph said. He smirked as he took Miles out of the cell.
He held his hair tightly in Kristoph's fists. Miles groaned in pain as his hair pulled him down the hallway. Kristoph threw him into a small, cold room with a video camera. He realized he did not have his clothes when he felt his nipples hardening. Kristoph said, "Tell the camera which is live by the way how you're the real monster in this room."
"I sent innocent people to prison in my heyday in the name of justice. Justice blinded by rage from the two big tragedies in my life. My father's death and being tricked into thinking I killed him. When I was 20 I was tortured at "Path to Paradise" for being gay. I abandoned you when I should of stayed. I was blinded by rage and Gumshoe make sure you pick up my dry cleaning those suits are expensive!" Miles said. He added in his code him and Detective Gumshoe came up with if anything happened to him. It was mainly used for kidnappings.
Miles looked at a mirror in the room. He looked disheveled and white as a sheet. Maybe he had to escape because maybe help wasn't one the way. He wanted Phoenix. Kristoph said, "Now let's fuck like we used to like old times."
Kristoph took him to another room with a camera. This one was warm with a red heart couch. He could feel his whole body protesting the foreign object that was Kristoph's length that felt like a stab when it went into him. He prayed Gumshoe would be there with the hostage rescue soon.
-Somewhere else in Kristoph's dungeon-
Lana had finished torturing Phoenix and was onto Blackquill and Athena. Her mind was wandering to the days she was living with her family. She could feel a flashback coming on.
"Daddy don't cut me with those sharp things!" She said as she collapsed crying. She had the knife she used to torture on her thigh. She had cut a good number of X's. She looked nothing like the sadist she was. Lana's phone had fallen next to Athena when Lana started her breakdown.
Athena dialed 911 and said, "I am at the Gavin Mansion and I need help now. My name is Athena Cykes. It is a hostage situation with an unknown number of hostages!"
