A/N Hey guys! I'm back with a few two-shot! For now, I think I'm going to stay on humorous stuff since it's summer and I want to keep things up-beat. Anyways, the disclaimer, Mr. Justice.
Apollo: The characters of Phoenix Wright and Apollo Justice belong to Capcom. The only thing that the author possesses is this mundane fanfiction.
Enjoy! Want ten minutes out on the balcony, Polly?
Apollo: ^Gulp^

Summer! It was finally here! Two months of nirvana, or discovery, of laziness, of FREEDOM. But most importantly, more time with her family! Trucy nearly squealed with joy just thinking about all the endless possibilities. It was 3:15 PM, June 27th, and the fifteen year old magician had just finished her last day of school for the year. After separating from her classmates, she skipped down the path to the "Wright Anything Agency" with a feeling of elation. During the walk back home, a woman was on the sidewalk handing out pamphlets. Curious, Trucy inquisitively approached her, wondering what she was selling.
The woman noticed her presence, turned around and gave her a polite smile. In a smooth and very professional tone, she said,
"Why, hello there, miss. Can I help you?"
Trucy shook her head. "Oh, no. I was just looking."
The woman raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Is that so?"
She nodded in response. Then, the woman gave her one of the pamphlets she was handing out earlier.
"It's the grand opening of a new observatory tower! It's taller than the Space Needle in Seattle, and is has a great view of the city! Inside that pamphlet is free admission for three people to see the inside of the new tower. Why don't you invite your parents?" She finished with a hopeful gaze.
"My daddy's dead and my mother's vanished." Trucy stated.
The woman seemed taken aback. "Oh, I'm very sorry to hear that."
Trucy grinned. "It's alright! I'll just invite Polly and my other daddy! Thank you kind lady!" And with that, she ran off, leaving the woman in the dust.
"Other daddy...?"

BANG!
"DADDY! I'M HOME!"
Fifteen years old, and still acts like a boisterous little tyke. Kinda reminds me of a certain spirit medium...
"Hey daddy! Guess what happened today?"
Ah, those were the good old days. And by good, I mean everybody freeloading off of me and dragging me to extremely random and obscure places.
"A new observatory tower just opened up, and do you know what I got?"
Seriously, Miles could've given condos to to everyone with his reputation and looks alone! I could hardly even afford the shirt off my back! I mean, I'm almost as poor as Gumshoe, and that's SAYING something!
"Daddy? DADDY! Are you listening!?" Trucy exclaimed into his ear.
Hearing the sudden change in volume, Phoenix Wright snapped open his eyes and jumped out of his semi-coma.
"Huh? Wha?
Trucy put her hands on her hips, and was about to repeat herself all over again when Apollo came stomping into the room.
"TRUCY! USE YOUR INSIDE VOICE!"
She whirled her head in his direction.
"I AM USING MY INSIDE VOICE!"
"NO YOU'RE NOT. CAN'T YOU BE QUIET WHEN YOU COME IN!?"
"LOOK WHO'S TALKING, MR. "My Chords of Steel is SO sexy"!"
"WHAT!? TAKE THAT BACK!"
"NEVER! IT'S THE TRUTH!"
"TRUTH? YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!"
Caught between the two deafening voices, poor Phoenix felt as if his ears were ready to explode. He looked up at the ceiling and silently asked why God had to put him through this every day. Besides, that last reference didn't even make sense! I swear these two are doing this as a form of recreation.
Deciding he could not take anymore, he stood up and took a deep breath, catching Apollo's and Trucy's attention.
"HOLD IT!" Phoenix cried out in a deafening voice.
The two stopped their explosive bickering in an instant. Phoenix breathed out a sign of relief.
"For God's sake, SHUT THE HELL UP OVER THERE! Can't I sunbathe in peace!?"
All three flinched at their neighbour's voice, which was quite a formidable feat, since Defense Attorneys and Magicians rarely ever flinch. Heck, even Charley the plant wavered under that voice.
Apollo cleared his voice, and replied "Sorry Mr. Weedley, we won't do it again"
"Yeah right! Won't do it again my FOOT!"
All three flinched again. Clearly, the Wright family feared their neighbour.
"Um, anyways, guess what I got?"
The two men turned their attention to Trucy.
"I got free tickets to an awesome place that we could go to over the weekend!"
Apollo gave her a suspicious glare. "That's what you said the last time you got something free, and we ended up having to endure really bad stand-up comedy."
"Hey! It was funny!"
"The only funny thing there was when a cosplaying teenaged girl screamed with laughter before the performer even finished his joke."
"But I'm serious! This is thing is totally better than the last time!"
Wanting to support his daughter, Phoenix gave her an encouraging smile and asked, "Where are we going then?"
"An OBSERVATORY TOWER! It's their grand opening!" Trucy cheered.
Phoenix froze.
Apollo's face went from one of suspicion, to disbelief, then to a look of utter horror.
"H...how high is this tower?"
Trucy opened the Pamphlet and quickly scanned the pages.
"Nearly 200 meters! Man, that's high!"
Apollo's face turned green, and Phoenix broke out in a cold sweat.
Now I REALLY miss the good old days.
A/N DUN DUN DUN! Anyways, R&R! Hope you enjoyed it!
