My Love
A summary of where the story starts:
So, this takes place after Apollo Justice. After Phoenix Wright's name has been cleared, he decides to retake the bar exam. While he waits for his results, he thinks back to the friends he has not spoken to. Specifically one Spirit Medium….
Every time he thinks of her, he feels two things: Pain, and Longing. Since he cut off contact from her, he's been hurting inside. But he made sure to not let Trucy know that. Because if she found out…
But now he realizes that she's been out of his life long enough. He can't stand it. He needs her. And he was going to set things right. Here, is where our story begins….
Chapter 1: Longing
Date: April 15th, 2012 Time: 2:15 p.m. Location: Wright Anything Agency
"Daddy!" Trucy called out.
"Yes Trucy?" Phoenix replied.
"Did you get your results back!" she asked eagerly.
"Not yet Trucy." Phoenix stated. "They said in about a week or two's time. It's been 4 days."
"Awww." She said unhappily. "I can't wait for you to be a lawyer again!" She started pouting.
Phoenix laughed. "I know Trucy, I can't wait either, but we need to be patient. It's been quite a long time since I shouted 'OBJECTION!' at someone."
Trucy still pouted. "I'm going to watch some TV." She turned and walked away.
Phoenix looked at Trucy turn a corner and disappear. "Good." Phoenix thought. "I've been thinking so much lately. At least she still doesn't know anything. She'll find out in due time, at least if things go Wright! Ugh. Bad joke."
Phoenix went to his desk and took out a picture. It was a picture of himself and Maya Fey. He stared at it intently. A tear ran down his eye and hit his desk. "Wow Maya." Phoenix thought. "All I have to do is look at you in this picture and I get all emotional. You're really something."
Thoughts of his past endeavors with Maya crept into his mind.
FLASHBACK
Turnabout Sisters
"OBJECTION!" Phoenix shouted. "Look closely at this. (Receipt with letters 'MAYA' on the front.') See the word 'Maya' written in blood?"
Edgeworth shook his head.
"Bwah hah!" he exclaimed. "You're grasping!"
Phoenix slammed his hands on the desk.
"I think not. Look at the other side of the receipt!"
"Th-The other side?" Edgeworth stammered.
"Your Honor, will you tell the court what is written on the other side of that receipt?" Phoenix asked.
"Hmm…" Judge said as he examined it. "Well! A 'glass light stand!' And the date of purchase…Why this was the day before the murder!"
"Gah!" Edgeworth sputtered.
"Even though Mia would help me win this case, it was the first time I had successfully defended Maya, my second case. More was to come after that case."
FLASHBACK
Farewell, My Turnabout
"Franziska threw something on the ground just now…" Phoenix thought.
"This is… An electromagnetic receiver," Edgeworth said.
"Isn't that the thing she used to track Detective Gumshoe?" Phoenix asked.
"I'll return this to the prescient later." Edgeworth said. "There's something else…"
"Ah!" Pearl exclaimed. "Isn't that Ms. Von Karma's whip!
"You should keep this Wright." Edgeworth said.
"Umm…Ok." Phoenix replied.
"NICK!" a voice shouted from behind him.
He turned around, and saw Maya in front of him.
"M—M—MAYA!" Phoenix shouted.
Maya, Phoenix, and Pearl embraced in a hug.
"Oh Nick I knew you would come through!" Maya exploded happily. "You got Engarde convicted, like I knew you would…."
"That would be one of the closest calls I ever had with Maya. She almost died, and I wouldn't have been able to live with myself if she…."
END FLASHBACK
Phoenix snapped out of his trance, and looked at his desk.
"What will she think if she saw me like this?" Phoenix said to no one in particular.
"I know that I may become a lawyer again." Phoenix thought. "But I left Maya alone; in the dark…I always thought that I was helping her. I mean, she had to go back to Kurain to become the Master. Plus the Elders never liked me, so I'd be doing her a favor by cutting off contact and never visiting…At least…that's what I told myself…
Then, thoughts of Maya with another man crept into his mind…He could see it, a wedding with all of his friends along with himself, watching Maya kiss this other man and live happily ever after…Without him…Forgetting him…Just like he did…
"Arrgh!" Phoenix slammed his fist on the desk angrily. "That's it! I'm fixing this right now!"
He fumbled for his cell phone and dialed.
"Hello Apollo?" Phoenix asked. "I need you to watch Trucy for a week. I'm going on a field trip…."
