Hi guys this is the 3rd chapter of *cue fancy music* A Hidden Secret! Thankyou to my lovely reviewers.

From there I quickly got my phone and rang the ambulance then the police. I knew the girl was innocent but what would this mean for me? I dialled Maya's number.

"Maya?"

"Mystic Abby!" The voice of my favourite cousin filled the speaker, her voice chirpy but wasn't right for the mood where I was standing.

"Pearl not right now I need to talk with my sister." I knew I sounded grumpy but this was urgent! I mean not everyday you are basically a witness to a murder.

I could hear the pout in Pearls' voice as she supposedly gave the phone to Maya.

"Hi Abby! What's the matter; your spiritual powers transfered into your ice-cream?" Maya joked.

"No, something far more serious." I took a deep breath. "Nick's been murdered."

"Abby don't play around with me I really want to know what has happened"

"I'm being completely and utterly serious. It happens every time I try to tell them about 'her' but 'they' always try to kill anyone who might know except for us."

"Who's the unlucky one who will most likely be arrested?"

"Young girl, around 8-10 years old and is dressed as a magician for some reason..."

I looked over my shoulder and saw Detective Gumshoe striding up to me, looked at me, then to Nick's body and then looked at the little girl.

"Maya, I will be home as soon as possible Gumshoe is here and will probably want to question me."

"Ok bye then, remember the burgers!" And with that she hung up.

"Hey pal, yeah you with the green eyes and red hair! What happened to Mr. Wright? TELL ME PAL!" boomed the furious detective's voice.

" Gumshoe! It's me Abby, I mean Melissa Edgeworth! I dyed my hair and by looking at the crime scene it looks like Phoenix has been murdered." I say as grimly as I could.

"Melissa...? Oh! Melissa have you seen Edgeworth lately? I heard he and you were going to release a secret to the world! Wait... did you say Mr. Wright can be assumed to be dead?"

" Well yes but we should wait for the ambulance they should be here soon."

With that comment, the girl with the magician clad arose from her unconsciousness and opened her eyes to see, Gumshoe and his green trench coat, and me wearing some acolyte clothes because everything else was dirty.

"Hi I am reeaally sorry but I can't tell you my name because Daddy told me not to tell anyone my name!" The girl was talking so fast she put Oldbag to shame. "Uncle told me to come here to see one of his legendary magic tricks! But I can't tell you anything more."

And a second after that statement an ambulance arrived. The driver pulled over and rushed to the body of Phoenix Wright.

"He might be able to be saved." Said the doctor. "You can continue investigating but we will have to take the body to our hospital. No forensics are allowed to do any tests while he is in an unstable condition. We shall now take our leave along with the body, anything that may seem unusual we will send to you detective."

The doctor ran to get the stretcher and along with the driver pushed Phoenix's practically dead body into the ambulance and drove to Hickfield Clinic.

"What's your name pal?" The detective asked the little girl however she turned away from me and looked at him, swallowed and said "Trucy Enigmar."

"You are under arrest under suspicion of murdering Phoenix Wright." Detcive Gumshoe told Trucy.

"But-"

"You are coming with us, the other detectives will be here about now." Said Gumshoe, looking at his wristwatch.

And right on cue the police and detectives came roaring down the road, got out the handcuffs and arrested the poor girl Trucy.

"Hey pal come to the precinct soon. We want to question you and don't get any funny ideas with investigating the crime scene."

I bid farewell to detective Gumshoe and walked towards the office and wondered whether Trucy really was innocent.

11:30 am

I had to run to get burgers because when I arrived at the door of the offices Pearls looked at me weirdly and by then I realized I forgot to buy Maya burgers.

So getting back 10 minutes later was not good enough for Maya.

"Abby!"

I slowly walked in, 5 burgers in my hand and just because her stomach was rumbling she was going to get all angry on me?

"Um yeah...Maya here are your burgers!" I try to say it as cheerfully as I could, but after your best friend had died probably anyone would be one the brim of crying tears of sadness.

Maya grabs the burgers and soon after that Pearl walks in and sees Maya's tears in her eyes.

"Mystic Maya what happened? You are crying has something happened, has Mr. Nick cheated on you?" Pearl says trying to figure out why Maya was sad.

"Pearl can you channel Mia for us, we need to tell and ask her something." I tell Pearl and goes off to the room next door gets changed into Mia's clothes. She comes out and channels Mia.

"Abby what's the matter you and Maya are both crying? And does Phoenix know yet?" Mia enquired?

I look at Maya, then back to Mia again and by looking in her eyes you could tell she was deeply worried.

"Mia... Sis I thought you could tell Phoenix he's dead. And no the Klast have been here it was them who attacked Nick." I inform Mia.

"Maya, Abby I want you to know that Phoenix and I talked in the spirit world and tomorrow maybe if you use one of the ancient channeling techniques you can both come into the spirit world! Don't tell Pearl about the Klast you will only put her in danger. I will see you tomorrow, I am off to see Phoenix."Mia said and then we were left with Pearl again.

"Maya we should head down to the Detention Center we can see if we can defend the girl, I think her name was Trucy." I tell Maya and grabbing Pearl by the hand we walk off to the Detention Center.
