A/N: No idea where this came from, but I'm pretty happy with the result. Enjoy it or you will be eaten by a horde of Zombies.
"Quick! There's a shack right there!" A red jacketed man pointed towards a large shack. More like a house to be honest. A girl in a magician's outfit and the red-clad man ran into the house, shack, thingy. Much to their surprise, there were other people here.
(Good, we made it out... Wait, who are these guys?!) Red guy locked the door, and looked at the people in front of him. He saw a man in a blue business suit and a woman in a purple kimono. To his right, he saw a man in all blue, even his hair was, he also saw a girl with raven black hair next to blue-hair. To his left, he saw a man wearing a deep shade of purple and ruffles.
"So... Are you just going to sit in this awkward silence all day?" The blue-haired man bashfully said, with intimidating eyes.
"I guess introductions are under way. I am Phoenix Wright. This woman next to me is Maya Fey." Phoenix said, as he walked to look out the window.
"I am Miles Edgeworth, but just call me Edgeworth."
"Heh, I'm Cyrus Justin." Blue-haired man announced.
"I'm Kay Faraday!" Raven haired said.
"I'm Apollo Justice. This magician is Trucy Justice." Red said, as he rubbed his left arm.
"Good, now that introductions are done, can we please talk about what the hell is going on out there?!" Cyrus cracked his knuckles. "Because, I really don't want to end up like them!"
"Nobody wants to be like that..." Phoenix mumbled, loud enough so that Cyrus could hear. "I say we get this stuff boarded up. Or else these guys are just going to bust through."
"I like your style Phoenix. Let's get to work." Cyrus went to look around for boards to use.
(What do the rest of us do?) Apollo crossed his arms and looked down at his shaking little sister. "It'll be alright, Trucy..."
"I don't think so..." Trucy rubbed the tears out of her eyes. "I... I saw daddy die..."
Apollo was surprised. He thought he was the only one to see him die. "Ah... So did I Trucy... I'm sorry that he got split up from mom..."
"Do you think she's alive?"
"She wouldn't die that easily. I think she's fine." Apollo gave her a warm smile.
"I'd hate to ruin the moment, but I would like a bit of help boarding all entrances, Mister..." Phoenix trailed.
"Just call me Apollo."
"Okay, I would like to use your help."
"Of course." Apollo grabbed a board, a hammer, and a few nails. "Where should I board it up? The window or door?"
"Your choice."
"Alright, I'll board up the door."
Cyrus never liked being alone. Nobody to talk to. Nobody to look at. And it just felt creepy, especially with this whole zombie thing going on. "Ugh... Why didn't I just ask Kay to come with me...?" Cyrus came up to a door and started to board it up. "I should just stop complaining and hurry and get this done with- Huh?" Cyrus turned towards the source of the sound. It sounded like something was messing around in some of the junk. "...Hello? If you aren't one of them... Just come out, I won't bite. If you ARE on of them... Then you better stay away..."
Cyrus was caught by surprise when something jumped out at him. Luckily, he had the hammer in front of him, so he was able to knock that thing out. "S-Shit... I better put it out of it's misery..." Cyrus raised the hammer, and dropped it.
"There. This entire wall is boarded up. I'll head upstairs to board up some windows. Apollo, you should go help out Cyrus." Phoenix grabbed a few boards and walked upstairs with Maya.
"Alright then..."
"Hold on Apollo. May we and Kay come along? Cyrus is our friend." Edgeworth frowned.
"Of course. Come on Trucy, we might as well take you too." On the way there, Apollo couldn't keep his eyes away from two things, his bracelet which gave him hope, and the girl walking along side him- Kay, was it? Every time he would look at her, she would always look right as he looked away. Even though he couldn't admit it, he thought she was kinda cute. She knew he kept stealing glances to her, but she didn't want to say anything, they were almost at Cyrus anyway.
"Hey Cyrus." Kay greeted.
"H-Hey..." Cyrus looked down at the mess he just made. A lifeless body was at his feet.
"...Uh... What happened here?" Apollo looked down at the dead body. "Was he... One of them?"
"Yeah, I had no choice... Here to help?"
"Yeah. Phoenix went upstairs to board-"
"HELP!" Everyone turned on a dime towards the stairs.
"Crap. Let's get over there!" Cyrus and co. ran towards the stairs.
"Phoenix! Maya!" Cyrus grabbed Apollo's hammer, since he forgot to bring his. He saw Phoenix being pulled out of a window by one of those things. Maya was trying to pull him back.
"H-Help!"
"Don't worry! C'mon Polly! We gotta save him!"
"Right-"
"Apollo!" He turned around to see Kay and Edgeworth trying to fight off another one of those things.
"Argh! I'm coming Trucy!" Apollo ran in their direction.
"Apollo! ...Dammit! C'mon Maya! We can save him!" Cyrus started pulling on Maya's shoulders. "We gotta pull harder!"
"Cyrus! Hand me the hammer!" Apollo exclaimed, as he was holding onto the thing's torso.
"R-Right! Here!" Cyrus threw it, and Apollo missed it.
"Damn... Got it!" Apollo shoved the sharp edge straight into the thing's mushy brain. "There... Let's help Phoenix!" Apollo turned around, to find that the thing was on top of Phoenix.
"Gah! Get this thing off of me!" Phoenix yelled, he kept pushing it away with his arm.
"Don't worry!" Apollo did the same to this thing, it's mushy brain only got nastier. "Whew..."
"I know right?" Cyrus pulled the thing off of Phoenix, check it for supplies, and threw it out the window. "Jeez... What the hell has this world come to?"
Cyrus and Phoenix decided to look for any supplies, leaving Kay, Edgeworth, Apollo, Trucy, and Maya alone in one room.
"Crazy day today, huh?" Kay said, while looking at the floor.
"Yeah... I guess you could say that..." Apollo crossed his arms.
"...I hate this..." Edgeworth mumbled. "I wish this was just a dream..."
"I'm sure we all do..." Maya frowned.
"...Polly." Trucy interrupted.
"Yeah, little sis?"
"Do you think anything will be normal again?"
Apollo closed his eyes, deep in thought. "I... I can't say for sure. But this is only day one. I can't really say anything about the matter... But keep your hopes up. Things will have to get better sooner or later."
Trucy nodded, and looked away.
"...Apollo, can I talk with you?" Edgeworth asked.
"Er... Sure." They moved to another room. "What's up?"
"I... I don't think you should be getting your little sister's hopes up." Edgeworth told the young seventeen year old.
"What do you mean? I was serious."
"I don't think that things will get better..."
"Yeah? Well, I do. I don't care what you think. This whole thing will just blow over."
"You think it'll be that easy? Ha! Come speak to me in a few months, then we can discuss who has the right idea."
"So... How did you get here?" Cyrus asked inconsiderately.
"Uh... What do you mean?" Phoenix grabbed a can of beans.
"What's your story? You and that girl."
"Oh. I work as a defense attorney, and that girl is my assistant."
"Ah, I see... Are you and her...?"
"What?! No! We're just friends!"
"Alright, alright, no need to get so defensive." Cyrus raised his hand defensively
"Sorry, I didn't mean to." Phoenix looked down in sorrow.
"You like her, don't you?"
"Huh? Nah, I'm just friends with her."
"Sure. I TOTALLY believe you..." Cyrus gave him a sly smile.
"This is all we found." Cyrus and Phoenix pulled out all the stuff they gathered, some food, a few blankets and pillows, and a small little sheriff's badge.
"What's up with the badge?" Kay pointed at it, and looked towards Cyrus.
"I dunno. I just liked the way it looked." He admitted.
"I think we should get some sleep. We'll need all the energy we can get tomorrow." Phoenix explained, as he handed everybody a pillow and blanket.
"I agree. Good night." Edgeworth immediately fell asleep.
"Here we go... *Yawn* Let's get some sleep..." Apollo said sleepily, as he slowly drifted off into deep sleep.
