Evening at King-Mart

A Phoenix Wright fanfic

Dusk had turned into evening, the red clouds fading to black, blending with the night sky. Rain had started to fall from the dark heavens, wetting the ground, creating small rivers on the concrete towards the storm drains. During the day, the King-Mart is always packed, cars pulling in and out, but when night falls, the store stays open, 24 hours around the clock and traffic becomes non-existent. However there are still shoppers, people who need to finish their list or a bunch of rowdy teenagers looking to agitate some of the employees.

A vehicle comes to a stop inside one of the spaces close to the entry; a young man steps out of the driver's side and walks around to the other side, opening the door for the young woman. "Thanks Mark…you such a good guy…" Mark loved hearing that, and he proceeded to shut the door behind her and take her by the hand, walking to the store, "oh, hold on…" she said, stopping and began looking through her purse, "what's wrong Robin?" Mark asked, Robin looked back at the car, "I forgot my wallet in there…" This confused Mark, "but you have your purse right there…" he said pointing to the leather bag in her hands, but she shook her head, "but it doesn't have my money in it." Mark gave a sigh and came back to the car, pulling out his keys, opening the door again for Robin.

Finding what she was looking for, Robin thanked Mark and they proceeded towards the store again but this time they heard a female voice behind them. "It's a shame it had to come to this…" They turned around to see a masked person dressed in black with a gun in her hands, "Who…who are you and what do you want?" Robin shouted at the personage, but the woman changed her tone, "nothing more than you lives, for ruining mine!" With that, she took aim at Robin, and a shot rang out and echoed in the night. "ROBIN!!" Mark shouted falling to his knees to pick her up looking over the hole in her chest, and turning his attention back to the woman, "WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?" He shouted at the top of his lungs, trying to scare her, but she simply chuckled, "Mark… you of all people should know that revenge is a dish served dead cold!" with that another gunshot piercing the silence, Mark fell to the ground, blood started to drain out of his head and onto the wet pavement. Two other shots were fired, and the woman simply left, disappearing back from where she came...
