7:00 PM

Justice Court of Los Angeles

Gregory Edgeworth brought his son with him to watch a judgment and see how the court works on a normal day, he wasn't on a workday, but his son insisted to see how the defense attorneys and the prosecutors make your job

After some hours, the judge adjourned the trial, and everyone will get their way at home, and obviously, this was applied to them

Gregory and Miles took the elevator and they met with two people there, Yanni Yogi and a young man called John July, his gaze distant as his thoughts wandered. He still had a long day ahead of him.

John July: (...At the day's end, I can go home and rest my feet...) he mused to himself.

He smiled a little at that thought. after the elevator doors had been closed the elevator come down for two floors before the cabinet stopped

Miles Edgeworth: What is happening, dad? Miles asked with a fearful expression on his face.

Gregory Edgeworth: This might be a system malfunction, don't worry son, everything is gonna be alright.

Miles Edgeworth: I hope so

The slight shaking turned into violent rattling, making his stomach lurch

John July: This isn't any ordinary difficulty, this is an earthquake!'

John started to slamming against the elevator's wall and knocking the wind from himself. He gasped, desperate for air. 'Wait...is it just me or...are we losing oxygen...?'

After five minutes passed, the despair appeared and John was hyperventilating, so he thought

Gregory Edgeworth: (...No no no no no no! I can't die! Not like this...!)

While his brain ran in alarmed circles, he turned to face another man in the elevator. He was sitting calmly in the elevator's front right corner, his eyes trained on the boy across him. How could he remain so level-headed? Didn't he understand the situation and its gravity? Anger and his deteriorating reason fueling him forward, he grabbed ahold of the other man's collar.

John July: Stop breathing my air! John said furiously

Gregory Edgeworth: Please, calm down and don't do precipitated things! Gregory said to calm down the nerves

John July: Calm down? How can I possibly calm down? John said this without hesitation

Gregory Edgeworth: Calm down now!

John July: You will not boss on me, now, stop breathing my air now, or I will kill you!

After the fight had started, the lights came out, Miles was not capable to see anything, he noticed a gun on his feet, and to help his father, he threw up the gun to save him and after few seconds he heard a bullet being fired when the lights returned he saw John July lied on the floor and the man looks dead

Gregory Edgeworth: Oh my God, what is happening here? Gregory said with fear and despair

Yani Yogi: I don't know, I heard a bullet being fired up but I don't know where this came from! Yani Yogi said with a fearful expression on his face, he could not believe what his eyes are showing to him

Miles started crying loudly, he never wanted to see this, see a dead man in the front of his eyes are surely not a good situation for a child

Gregory hugged his son and he said

Gregory Edgeworth: Calm Miles, it's not your blame come here

Miles went to his father arms and he was hugged, however, he couldn't erase this memory from his mind

Gregory Edgeworth: Don't cry Miles, everything is okay. Gregory tried to calm his son who was terrified about the murder what he saw

After some minutes, the elevator's doors have opened and some police officials came in and they have arrested Gregory and Yani for the suspect of murdering John July

Gregory and Yani Yogi were been transferred to the local detention center and they will wait for their judgment tomorrow

Yani Yogi: I'm not an assassin, please, this is just a misunderstanding! Yani screamed

Gregory looked to the police officer and he said with a sad expression on his face

Gregory Edgeworth: Please, let my son go home!

Police Officer: Do you know someone who actually can leave him home?

Gregory Edgeworth: Can I call my wife?

The official looked at him with a normal expression and he said

Police Officer: What is your wife's name?

Gregory Edgeworth: Her name is Misty Fey, could I contact her?

Police Officer: Here is my cellphone, but be quick, we will have to go soon

Gregory Edgeworth: Thanks, I will call her! Gregory looked at the policeman with a happy face
