Hello, everyone! Long time no see!
I'm truly sorry for the long hiatus since 2017. I was caught up in personal issues that were not under my control. In any case, I've got news for you guys (some good news, some bad news, and just news).
Bad news: all the stories you see that are unfinished will stay unfinished. I thought they were a little crappy and way too cringe-worthy. However, they gave me a lot more experience in writing, which brings me to the good news:
I will try leaving as many stories as possible up on this profile in case you want to see them again. I might even use these old stories as reference for new ones!
Despite this, however, I'm going to be rewriting a lot of my previous stories that I've done in the past. And once I start rewriting an old story, that old story will be deleted in order to comply with the FanFiction website's rules and guidelines.
Anyway, with that all out of the way, my first story back will consist of a Batman/Ace Attorney crossover taking place between Batman: Arkham City and Batman: Arkham Knight, so if you haven't played the Arkham series, I highly recommend playing it before reading it (or you can watch some walkthroughs about it instead if you want.). In this crossover, Batman will go on trial for the murder of his arch-nemesis, the Joker, back in Arkham City. I wanted Batman to be cleared of that charge, so without further ado...
TURNABOUT GOTHAM - START
February 7, 11:47 PM
Arkham City
Park Row
Batman woke up with the cure still in his hand. He painfully got up, then he was greeted by the Joker's voice.
"Quick! The cure!" Joker demanded. "What are you waiting for? C'mon!"
Batman looked at the cure and contemplated what to do with Joker as he ranted.
"I killed your girlfriend, poisoned Gotham and hell, it's not even breakfast. But so what? We all know you'll save me."
Batman then replied with:
"Every decision you've ever made ends with death and misery. People die. I stop you. You'll just break out and do it again."
The Joker then did something unexpected.
"Think of it as a running GAG!" he yelled as he stabbed Batman in the shoulder from behind, making Batman drop the cure.
"Nooooo!" yelled Joker as he dropped to the floor and tried to drink the cure from the floor.
Batman took the knife out of his shoulder and threw it to the ground.
"Are you happy now?" Joker said as he lay down, giving up.
"Do you want to know something funny?" replied Batman, "Even after everything you've done, I would have saved you."
Joker simply coughed up a laugh and said, "That actually is *cough* *cough* pretty funny."
He coughed and laughed for a few more seconds, then he finally succumbed to his disease. He had finally passed away.
April 4, 8:53 PM
Wright and Co. Law Offices
"Well, that was uneventful."
"Come on, Nick! Cheer up! We'll get some cases soon! I just know it!"
A lawyer, Phoenix Wright, and his assistant, Maya Fey, were getting ready to close up the offices for the night. They hadn't had any new clients yet, but Maya insisted that they will get more cases soon.
Suddenly, just before they were about to close, Phoenix's cell phone rang. It looked like they had gotten a client at last.
"See? Told you so!" said Maya.
Phoenix answered the phone.
"Wright and Co. Law Offices, Phoenix speaking," said Phoenix.
A deeper, more intimidating voice answered back.
"Mr. Wright. I was wondering if I could get a hold of you. I need your help."
"Wait... you aren't Shelly de Killer, are you?" Phoenix said with a sense of hostility.
"No, I'm not de Killer. I'm a vigilante, not an assassin. I don't kill."
"Well, who are you then?"
There was a pause, then the caller simply replied:
"I'm Batman."
"Wait, WHAT?!" Phoenix yelled in surprise.
"I know," said Batman, "Now, I require your help. I've been accused of murdering the Joker. Could you help me out?"
"The Batman needs help from a lawyer?" said Phoenix, "That's the first I've heard of it. But sure, we'll help you out. Where are you exactly? Gotham City, I presume?"
"That is correct. I've already deployed the Batwing to your offices. It will take you straight to the Gotham City Police Department."
"Got it. We'll be waiting."
"Thanks, Mr. Wright."
Batman hung up, and Phoenix explained to Maya what happened.
"Was that seriously Batman you were talking to?!"
"Yep. He needs our help, and I figured after he's saved the world countless times, we could return the favor."
"Alright! But how will we get there?"
"Batman has deployed the Batwing to our offices. It should be here any second now."
Suddenly, the Batwing swooped in and landed on the ground next to the offices to pick them up.
The Batwing opened up its passenger dock, and Phoenix and Maya went in.
"You ready, Nick?" asked Maya, "This ride might get a little turbulent."
"Yeah, I'm ready," said Phoenix, a little weary, "Although... could this aircraft go easy on the passengers?"
"Activating slow flight mode," said a computer in the ship.
As the Batwing took off, instead of zooming through the skies, it flew just as fast as a normal passenger airplane.
"Well, I'll be damned," said Phoenix.
"Next destination: prosecutor's office," said the computer.
"Wait, we need someone from there as well?" said Maya.
As the Batwing landed, Miles Edgeworth was waiting as well, along with the Judge and Detective Dick Gumshoe.
As they got on, they saw Phoenix and Maya on there as well.
"Edgeworth!" said Phoenix.
"Wright," said Edgeworth, "I assume Batman called you guys there as well?"
"That's correct!" said Maya, "Oh, Detective Gumshoe! Your Honor! You're here as well?"
"Indeed," said the Judge, "We all got a call from the Batman himself, apparently."
"We certainly did, Pal!" said Gumshoe, "We better hurry, or Batman might get convicted!"
"And he won't be able to protect his city," said Edgeworth.
And with that, the Batwing took off for its next destination:
Gotham City.
Okay, that's the first chapter of this story! Now I should be back and updating now. I'll be focusing on one story at a time from now on, so don't expect as many stories as before.
So, until then, this is BlueDragonCody signing off. See ya!
