Phoenix Wright – Turnabout Future
Chapter 2 - 10th February – 13.48 – Courtroom
"We are here to give sentencing for the murder of Misty Fey," stated the Judge clearly, "We have heard arguments from the prosecution and the defence about the case and I feel I am now ready to give sentencing on the case."
Phoenix looked at his clients Diego Armando and Iris Hawthorn, then over at Edgeworth who was prosecuting the case.
"I won't pretend that the prosecution and defence don't have a personal interest in this case," continued the Judge, "Both were involved in the original trial although I understand that Mr. Edgeworth was only involved in the investigation."
"Yes your honour," replied Edgeworth a little to quickly for Phoenix's comfort.
"Mr. Armando," continued the Judge, "You are formally charged with accidental murder whilst acting in defence of yourself and others, however it is proven that you premeditated the attack and even with the extraordinary circumstances surrounding the case we cannot forget that fact.
"Miss Hawthorn, you are charged with aiding and abetting in the murder of Misty Fey and with assisting in the premeditation of the attack. Again the extraordinary circumstances around the case must be taken into consideration.
"It is known that if they had gone to the police with information on the attack they would have simply been laughed at, if they had allowed the attack to go ahead exactly as planned then a 9 year old girl could have just as easily been in Misty Fey's place. Misty Fey took the place knowing that she may have to sacrifice her own life to save that of her youngest daughter.
"Taking this into consideration I have decided to be as lenient in my sentencing as the law will allow, Diego Armando, for the murder of Misty Fey you are sentenced to 9 years inprisionment, Iris Hawthorn, for aiding and abetting in the murder of Misty Fey you are sentenced to 4 years imprisionment.
"Sentencing for the murder of Misty Fey is complete, court is adjourned."
14.15 – Defendant Lobby 3
"Feenie!" yelled Iris running across the lobby.
"Hey Iris," replied Phoenix noticing how Maya held her hand on Pearl's shoulder, he'd suffer for this almost perfect moment with Iris later.
"Finished yet Iris," said Diego from the entrance, he'd taken a detour to grab a cup of coffee. Gadot brand 58 it smelled like to Phoenix, he'd had plenty of time to get familiar with Diego's coffees over the last few weeks helping him to put together his defence.
"I still don't get why you didn't defend yourself and Iris," replied Phoenix as Iris let go, "You've been on both sides of the courtroom before,"
"I told you Wright," replied Diego slapping him on the back, "I wanted the best lawyer in the city to defend me. Not to mention the fact that I know for a fact that Fey women can be bottomless pits when it comes to food so I figured you could do with paying and not another Pro Bono case."
"Are you going to stand there and let him talk about me like that Nick!" yelled Maya
"Don't let him talk about your Special Someone like that Mister Nick!" yelled Pearl.
"Is there something going on between you and my cousin Feenie?" asked Iris mischievously.
"No, really, Pearls just got the wrong idea," stammered Phoenix nervously, "It's just this stupid idea she's got that me and Maya are in love."
"So you're saying my baby sister is stupid," replied Iris.
"What is it that makes you popular to women from the Fey family Wright?" asked Diego as Pearl chased Phoenix around the room trying to punch him.
