Hello everyone and welcome back to So Close, But in the End, So Far
Enjoy
Date: June 6th
Place: Courtroom No. 4
Time: 11:00 AM
In the witness stand, there was a young woman, she was caring a small flag that said GO! In her left hand and in her right hand she was wearing a foam glove that said #1; she had a green jacket, sunglasses and seems to be excited
-¨Witness, name and occupation¨ Blackquill ordered
-¨You asked who am I? I´ll tell you who I am, I am Mr. Racer No.1 fan and the president of the fans association of Mr. Racer, you can call me Greatie Fan¨ Greatie exclaimed proudly
-¨She sure is… cheerful, to say the least¨ Apollo said sweating
-¨No… kidding¨ Athena said sweating too
-¨Ummm…. Anyway, what is this witness going to testify about, Prosecutor Blackquill? ¨ the Judge asked him
-¨Ms. Fan, you saw the entire incident, correct? Tell the court what you saw¨ Blackquill ordered
-¨No worries, I am the president of Mr. Racer fan association and if there is one thing I would love to do is help to catch whoever kill him¨ Greatie exclaimed
Witness Testimony
¨What I Saw¨
I arrived at the stadium to 6:00 PM in order to watch the practices
After they were done, I follow Mr. Racer to his garage, like always
When I got there, I noticed that a few minutes later Mr. Niter arrived and they started to talk
They talked for a real long time; so I decided so left when…
I heard some noises coming from Mr. Racer garage and when I got there, I saw Mr. Niter with a bloody wrench
-¨So let me get this straight; you were basically staking Mr. Racer? ¨ the Judge asked her
-¨What?! NO! I am the president of the fans association, do you really believe I would not respect his personal space¨ Greatie said clearly offended
-¨ (You just mentioned that you always followed him) ¨ Athena thought confused
-¨Anyway, Ms. Cykes, proceed with the cross-examination¨ the Judge ordered
Cross-Examination
¨What I Saw¨
I arrived at the stadium to 6:00 PM in order to watch the practices
After they were done, I follow Mr. Racer to his garage, like always
-¨Hold It! ¨ Athena yelled ¨You always followed him, why? ¨ Athena asked
-¨What do you mean why? I am the president, It´s my duty to make sure that nothing bad happens to Mr. Racer¨ Greatie answered
-¨ (You do know that there are security guards for that, correct?)¨ Athena thought
-¨Regardless, I have this V.I.P. pass, so there is no problem, I can go anywhere I want inside the stadium, even to the competitors garages¨ Greatie assured
-¨ (this could be useful, better take note of this) ¨ Athena thought
-¨Witness, continue with your testimony¨ the Judge ordered
When I got there, I noticed that a few minutes later Mr. Niter arrived and they started to talk
-¨Hold It! ¨ Athena yelled ¨Are you sure it was Mr. Niter? ¨ Athena asked
-¨Well, I can´t said for sure that it was him, he was wearing his helmet, so it was hard to tell¨ Greatie answered
-¨The only competitors that were there at the moment of the murder were the victim and the defendant, we are sure of that¨ Blackquill said
-¨Hmmm. I guess that settles that, witness, proceed¨ the Judge ordered
They talked for a real long time; so I decided to left when…
-¨Hold It! ¨ Athena yelled ¨Do you have any idea of what they talked about? ¨ Athena asked
-¨I only hear to Mr. Racer said ¨I can´t take this anymore¨, I wasn´t going to eavesdrop to other people conversation, so I decided to come back later, but¨ Greatie answered
I heard some noises coming from Mr. Racer garage and when I got there, I saw Mr. Niter with a bloody wrench
-¨Hold It¨! Athena yelled ¨You mentioned that you weren´t sure that it was Mr. Niter who was at the victim´s garage, how can you be sure now? ¨ Athena asked
-¨Well, for some reason, he wasn´t wearing his helmet and he had the wrench in his hands, I am sure that it was him¨ Greatie answered
-¨ (Oh, really) ¨ Athena thought confidently ¨Ms. Fan, add what you just said to your testimony¨ Athena ordered
It was the defendant for sure; he had the murder weapon with blood, clear signal that he attacked Mr. Racer
-¨Objection¨! Athena yelled ¨I am sorry Ms. Fan, but you are wrong¨ Athena said
-¨W-What? ¨ Greatie said sweating
-¨The murder weapon, it does has the defendant´s fingerprints, but the position of them are weird, it looks more like he was defending himself¨ Athena said ¨So, how can this be ARGH! Athena tried to yelled, but she was attacked by Taka
-¨Fuiiip¨ Blackquill whispered, after that, Taka landed on his master´s shoulders ¨Cykes-dono; let me ask you something, what difference does is make? ¨ Blackquill asked
-¨Come again? ¨ Athena asked
-¨the defendant could have simply grabbed the weapon in a different way in order to fool us, as long as they were the only ones there, nothing else matter¨ Blackquill said confidently, after that he slammed his desk ¨The only one who could have done this was the defendant, no one else!¨ He exclaimed
-¨Ngh…! NGHAAAAAAA! ¨ Athena yelled shocked, after that the court entered in chaos once more
-¨Order! I demand order! ¨ the Judge said hitting with his gavel ¨I am afraid that the prosecution is right, if the only ones there were the victim and the defendant, there is only one conclusion¨ the judge said
-¨You fought well Cykes-dono, but you have done everything you could, now Your Baldness, the verdict¨ Blackquill ordered
-¨Any objections, Ms. Cykes? ¨ the Judge asked her
-¨I…¨ Athena barely said but then
-¨Objection! ¨ somebody yelled, it was Apollo ¨Ms. Fan, you previous mentioned that you left Mr. Racer and Mr. Niter when they were talking, how long you were absent?¨ Apollo asked her
-¨Well, let´s see, practices started at 6:00 PM and finished at 6:30 PM so… I would say that I left at 6:50 PM, why you asked? ¨ Greatie answered
-¨Just I thought, according to the autopsy report, the victim didn´t die until 7:00 PM, but Ms. Fan said that she left them talking for 10 minutes¨ Apollo said while reading some papers
-¨Oh! I see where this is going¨ the Judge exclaimed, realizing of everything
-¨There was a 10 minute gap between Ms. Fan returning and the crime, so you see Mr. Blackquill… It opens the possibility of a third party! ¨ Apollo exclaimed pointing with his finger
-¨NRGHAAAAAAAAA! ¨ Blackquill yelled shocked
After that, the court entered in chaos once more
-¨Order! Order! Order! ¨ the Judge said hitting with his gavel
-¨Apollo, thank you¨ Athena said giving a quick hug to his boyfriend
-¨But then who was this supposed third party, Justice-dono¨ Blackquill asked sweating
-¨I can answer that¨ Athena said confidently ¨You previous mentioned that the victim was trying to steal the defendant´s girlfriend, she is the third party in this entire love triangle, she must testify, now¨ Athena added
-¨Hmm… any objections, Prosecutor Blackquill?¨ the Judge asked him
-¨No¨ Blackquill said
-¨Very well, court will take a 15 minute recess, the prosecution will prepare this witness, court is adjourned¨ the Judge said hitting with his gavel
