Sonic and Lien-Da got dress and getting ready for court, Sonic got on his tuxedo and wearing a tie along with it. Lien-Da wore a blue dress that went to her knees and wore black high heel shoes. Her hair was up and curled up and looking very beautiful.
Sonic came in the bathroom and hugging his wife and kisses her on the cheek.
"You look so beautiful Lien-Da" Sonic complimented
"Thank you, you look very dashing yourself honey" Lien-Da remarked with a smile
"Thank you, today is the court day and trial of Ash Mongoose for what he did. Mina should be here any moment now"
Seconds after, there was a knock on the door that causes Sonic and Lien-Da their attention.
"Looks like she's here" Lien-Da proclaimed
"Yeah I'll get the door" Sonic stated walking out the bathroom
Sonic head over to the door and opens it and it was Mina Mongoose herself. She wore a purple and black dress with black high heel shoes to go along with it. Mina's hair was curled up and tied to the back. Sonic examined her and smiled.
"Wow Mina, you looking so beautiful" Sonic complimented
"Thank you, you look mighty handsome yourself" Mina responded
"Please, come on in"
"Thank you"
Mina stepped inside and smiled. They have a seat at the living room on the couch.
"This is it, the trial of Ash Mongoose. I haven't got any sleep last night" Mina said frowning
"Really… What there something in your mind?" Sonic asked
"Yeah just some things of course, I know I fired Ash but who's going to manage me when I'm on tour and my career?"
"Why not Uncle Chuck, you could ask him. He'll be happy to help you"
"You think so?"
"Yeah, my family respects you and Uncle Chuck will be happy to manage you"
"Thank you Sonic"
"Anytime"
Seconds later, Lien-Da came to the scene just finish putting make-up on.
"Hey Lien-Da" Mina greeted
"Hey yourself, I see you guys were chatting" Lien-Da stated
"Yes we are, we were just waiting for you patiently" Sonic remarked
"Oh ok and did you told Mina"
"Tell me about what?" Mina asked
"Mina… I'm pregnant with Sonic's child"
"WHAT! You're going to have baby, oh Sonic. Congratulations to the both of you"
"Yeah and we're so happy about it too. We're going to be parents very soon" Sonic remarked kissing Lien-Da on the cheek
"Well let's get to court and get justice" Lien-Da stated
"Yeah, let's get going"
Sonic, Lien-Da and Mina left out the residence and head to court. Minutes after, they arrived to their destination and head straight inside. They head straight to the court room and took a seat. They also see Ash in the inmate suit on sitting with the lawyer. Mina sat with her lawyer across from Ash. Ash give Mina and severe glare at his ex-girlfriend. Mina didn't want to look at Ash. Thus this made Sonic and Lien-Da look at each other.
"Honey, this cpuld get ugly for the two of them" Lien-Da said
"I know… I have a bad feeling about this" Sonic responded
The judge soon arrived to the scene and took his seat as the court was about to start.
"Ok everyone, settle down and take your seats. Court is now in session. Here we have a pop star singer against her manager well… Ex-manager and turns out it's her boyfriend. Mina Mongoose and Ash Mongoose. Mina is charging Ash for the first degree murder. Mina, can you tell me what happen?" The Judge asked
"Yes… it started when me and Ash went to go see a friend of mine named: Sonic the Hedgehog. He is also married to a woman and ex-grandmaster Dark Legion named: Lien-Da Kommisssar but now her last name is Hedgehog since she's married to Sonic. Anyway, back to the story. We went to go visit Sonic and see how they're doing of their marriage life and we were having a good time enjoying each other and never keep on touch since my singing career and the big tour and concerts. As we were having a good time, Ash here said some awful rude things about Sonic the Hedgehog, the hero of Mobius (Pointing at Sonic) and said some awful things about Lien-Da and tries to hit on her. Sonic suddenly punched Ash straight to the face that cause his anger to boiled up but Ash came prepared and didn't tell me. He had a knife with him and starts to stab Sonic a few times on the chest and arm. The fight start to broke out and Ash almost tried to kill Sonic but Lien-Da: Sonic's wife stopped Ash with her bullwhip and knock him unconscious. I was busy calling the police while the fight had started" Mina explained
"Is that so… Ash, is this true?"
"What… No your honor, I've never hurt or wanted to kill Sonic and never tried to hit on Sonic's wife" Ash responded lied
"Don't lie Ash, I saw you pulled out your knife and tried to stab Sonic, my good friend. You always hated Sonic since day one when you first met him" Mina remarked with anger
"ORDER! One at a time, do we have a witness to this incident?" Judge asked looking around
"Right here, I can prove it your honor" Sonic responded standing up
Sonic headed to the witnessed chair and sighed ready to answer any lawyer's question.
"Sonic, you did fought Ash correct. What made you fight against Ash?" Mina's Lawyer asked
"I fought Ash because he disrespect me and my wife. He even tried to hit on her right in front of me. Mina is right, Ash hated my guts since day one when he met me. He was so jealous because I accomplish everything and doing well in my life. He also thinks that I would steal Mina away from him but I wasn't, I'm a good friend to Mina. I love her like a sister, not as a girlfriend. I respect Mina and I show my respect towards her but I would never steal somebody's girlfriend, that is not me sir" Sonic explained
"I see… So Ash is responsible of everything correct?"
"Yes completely everything, I do have the scars to proof he tried to kill me when I fought against him"
"Can we see them?" Judge asked
"Certainly your honor"
Sonic starts to unbutton his shirt and show the scars which caused the crowd gasped except for Lien-Da and Mina. The judge was intrigue and shock about this.
"Then its settle, the Jury would go back to the room to decide which Ash is Innocent or Guilty" the Judge stated
The Jury head back to the room and decided which Ash is Innocent or Guilty. Sonic went back to sit with his wife: Lien-Da. Lien-Da laid her head on her husband's shoulder waiting patiently.
"I hope we get justice and especially Mina" Lien-Da said
"I hope so too Lien-Da, Ash deserved to be punished" Sonic responded wrapping his arms around Lien-Da's shoulder
38 minutes later…
The Jury came back in the court room and returned to their seats. The judge look at them as everyone waited patiently to know what was going to happen next.
"So… Have you all decided?" the Judge asked
One of the Jury stood up and holds out the paper in his hands.
"Your honor, by going through and decided to this case. We found Ah Mongoose the ex-manager and ex-boyfriend of Mina Mongoose… Guilty" the Jury said out loud
Sonic and Lien-Da smiled and hug each other and everyone gasped and gossip. Mina even smiled and looks at Sonic and Lien-Da.
"Before I get with the sentencing, Ash is there something you want to say?" the Judge asked
"Yes, I want to say… I'm sorry, to Mina Mongoose. Sonic, I'm sorry for trying to kill you and for trying to hit on your wife" Ash apologized
"By the power invested him, Ash Mongoose. I here now sentence you to 17 years in prison. Court abjured"
The police officers took Ash away and out of the court room. Mina smiled and was now happy as she can be. Sonic and Lien-Da smiled and hugged Mina. They exit out of the court and head outside.
"I finally got justice, Ash got what the hell he deserved for what he did" Mina said smiling
"Yes he did, now you can focus on your life. Besides, you don't have to have nightmares anymore" Sonic responded
"Yeah and thank you Sonic for anything"
"You're welcome"
"Um Sonic… Mind if I ask you something"
"Sure what is it?"
"Is it ok if… I can kiss you"
"Sure on the cheek"
"No… I was thinking on the lips, with Lien-Da's permission of course"
"It's ok, you deserve it" Lien-Da said accepting Mina's request
Mina smiled and wrapping her arms around Sonic and kisses him on the lips which Sonic returned the kiss. After a few minutes kissing, Mina broke the kiss and smiled.
"Thank you Sonic" Mina said showing gratitude
"You're welcome" Sonic responded happily
Mina smiled and said her goodbyes and left out the scene. Sonic and Lien-Da smiled and hold hands as they left out the scene. They returned back to their residence within minutes. Sonic and Lien-Da got off their clothes and got on something comfortable and begin to relax. Sonic lay on the bed looking at the ceiling.
Lien-Da came out the bathroom and got onto the bed and laid with Sonic and placing her head on Sonic's shoulder.
"Are you ok honey?" Lien-Da asked
"Yeah… I'm fine, it's been a long day. Now I can rest and relax" Sonic responded
"Ain't nothing wrong with that baby. Why don't I go make some lunch for us"
"No no, I'm going to take a nap. Wanna join me?"
"Sure, since I've been up since 7 ok getting ready"
Sonic smiled and the married couple drifted off asleep taking a nap.
