Description: Iris has been released from jail, only to face another turnabout and some more chaos. A Phoenix x Iris story, more chapters to come, takes place two years after Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations.
Chapter 5: Dealing with a Certain Witness…
April May was at the detention center.
"Ugh" groaned April when Phoenix and Maya walked in "what do YOU want?"
"What you witnessed;" answered Phoenix, "and IF you witnessed anything."
"I don't have to tell you anything!" April May replied, crossing her arms and turning around. She looked different from their last encounter, her hair was shoulder length now and she had on a small silk pink scarf. "Just wait for my testimony, all of you crooked defense attorney's!"
"…Let's go check up on Iris." Phoenix told Maya
"Oh, you're back…" Said Iris as Phoenix and Maya entered
"Iris" said Phoenix, "you can tell us if you knew the victim."
"I'm sorry Feenie" replied Iris, "but I assure you I do not know him, and I beg you not to worry for me."
But deep inside her, she did want Phoenix to worry about her. She had to face it: she had fallen in love with him all over again. And he did worry about her, even though he wasn't showing it.
Three psyche locks appeared.
Phoenix looked at the autopsy report and saw the words: "the victim was Victor Dash, a spirit medium from Youi."
"Someone didn't look at this…" Thought Phoenix
"Iris, you must've known him!" Explained Phoenix, "he's a spirit medium, how could you not know him?"
One lock broke.
"Okay…" Iris admits; "I had heard of him, but didn't know him other than that."
"OBJECTION!" Maya rang out "Iris, you did know him! Sister Bikini said he was the man you were supposed to marry!
Another lock broke.
"I-Its true" said Iris "but I had no intention of not helping Kurain!"
"But you even said yourself you had a plan to get out of it…" pointed out Maya.
The last lock broke
"I-I don't think I killed him, b-but I came up with that plan because…" Iris burst into tears, "I-I-I…!"
"Its okay Iris;" Phoenix interrupted, "I think we have what we need right now, and visiting hours are up."
"One last thing, Feenie." Iris called out before they left, "please defend me, the trial is in two days."
When they got out of the detention center, Maya slapped Phoenix."
"Ow!" Phoenix exclaimed in pain, "what was that-?"
"Nick!" Maya scolded Phoenix "she was about to confess her feelings for you! Why did you stop her?"
Again Phoenix ignored Maya's comments.
