I sat there alone in my room, listening to the rustle of the leaves outside my window, wondering if she would ever come back to me. My brother was living out the rest of his days in jail, and my best friend was joining him. How could things go so wrong? My hands traveled up to my face, and held my head. Now, I had seen the girl that made my heart race, and my mind clear. She was beautiful, with nothing wrong with her. She was my only thought, I couldn't focus on anything. Silent tears flowed down my face. "How could my perfect life go so wrong?"

Many of you may know me as the handsome guitarist from The Gavinners. Well, that's my second life. I, Klavier Gavin, am that man, but I am much more complicated than many people think I am. So many have asked what I do in my free time. "Do you go to the beach?" "What about the pool?" "Do you like movies, Mr. Gavin?" But, the honest truth is that the band is my free time. When I am not doing that, I am a Star Prosecutor. I can't explain it. I love serving justice, I don't care who it is. Weather it's a criminal, or someone who did something stupid. But, my rival, Herr Forehead, otherwise known as Apollo Justice, has stifled my winning streak. All my cases with him have been hard, I just can't explain it. But, there is someone else who makes my heart melt in her gracious presence. Her name is Ema Skye.
I woke up that morning, feeling extremely groggy, and tired to the max. My remaining band and I had just come back from a concert in France. The flight home had a lot of turbulence, so I couldn't sleep on it. My mind raced with the thoughts of her, and of my previous cases. But, the one seven years ago shook me still today. I had sent one of the greatest Defense Attorneys to his own Hell; not being able to defend those who seek his help. His badge was taken away from him, and it was my brother's fault.
I was Prosecutor in that case, and apparently my brother didn't want Phoenix Wright to defend anymore. He hadn't lost a case since he started. I guess it was the love of his job, or maybe it was his fantastic mentor. Mia Fey was a wonderful woman, or so Phoenix tells when I see him. I occasionally visit Wrights Anything Agency to see Herr Forehead, and talk with Phoenix's younger daughter. Every time I see her, I can't help but feel so guilty. After all, it was my brother who sent her father to his death. I watched that case, and the one who was on defense was no other than Apollo Justice. And you would never guess who the defendant was: Phoenix Wright himself.
Just sitting in the audience was amazing; you could feel the tension it was so thick. But, that was all earlier this year. Now, I face my farther past: once that happened seven years ago. But, it didn't have to do with any case I was working on, oh no. Something far more difficult: love.
My car just pulled up to the school and already girls were at my throat. Sometimes, I just wanted to be a normal high school boy. But, given my careers, I was always the target for girls….and guys. You would never think that someone like me would be bullied so much. Also given the fact that I was born and raised in Germany, and that was my native language, many people had nicknames for me. My years in high school were torture, until I turned 17, my last year. A new girl transferred into my school; her name, as I would later know, was Ema Skye. I couldn't help but think that her last name was awfully familiar, but I let that slide. She came with her old friend, and my new rival, Apollo Justice.
The minute I laid eyes on her, my heart was in a burning sensation. I couldn't stay away from her. I tried to help her get used to the school, and walked her to all the classes; I even sat with her and Apollo at lunch! Obviously, Ema noticed that something was up.
"Umm, Klavier, was it? You have been extremely nice to my friend and me, but I find it a bit odd. I mean, you are Klavier Gavin, a multi-millionaire, with a promising career and fallback. Why are you hanging out with a science geek and an aspiring attorney?" Her tone left me in shock. It sounded as if I was trying to pick on them or something.
I answered back very truthfully. "You are new here, and the least I could do was show you around. Besides, I think that science is fascinating. I was hoping you could teach me some."
She looked at me with a lot of disbelief in her eyes. Then, a look of disgust washed over her face. Ema stood up, and spat on the floor. "Come on Polly, let's go. He is so fake!" Apollo followed without any questions, but with an equal look of disgust on his face.
I sat there, unsure of what had just happened. I'm sure my face showed completely of flabbergasting. I sat there alone at the table, and looking back, that's how I would feel every day in seven years.
I put my head in my hands, and some tears fell down my face. Who was she to judge me? My life was far from perfect. My parents couldn't care less about me, and my older brother hated me. The only place that I was myself was in the courtroom. I just hoped that the final bell would ring soon. I needed to get to my case, and say the magical words that made me feel so much better. Objection.
