Chapter 5: Turnabout Lightning, Trial 2

North POV

I walked into the courtroom, hoping to help with the defense. Not lead it, of course, I was still recovering, but the doctor said I could be out and about now. They even let go to the trial. Said I could take a break but, I don't want to sit back and watch everyone else do something for me. Just then, the door behind me opened. "So, I think the person I like is- Oh, North, what are you doing here?" Athena asked, walking in with Sam. "I can go into court, now that my wounds have healed. So, I can be here." I said with a smile, hoping nothing out of the ordinary happened. Then, I saw Widget go mad and then Athena went mad. Well, dammit. "YOU SHOULD TAKE A BREAK! SERIOUSLY, TAKE A FREAKING BREAK BEFORE ONE OF YOUR WOUNDS OPEN UP!" Athena yelled. I took a step back and chose my next words very carefully. "The doctor said I was fine and all my wounds were closed. He said they should be fine." I said, suppressing the urge to slap myself. Why didn't I stay home? I suppose it was to help in the courtroom. I mean, Payne is a winey little… never mind that, I just need to get in.

"The court is going to be ready in 5 minutes. Please be ready and in the court by that time." The bailiff said, opening the courtroom door. I walked in, and stood by the defense bench. Of course, I was still nervous, because the courtroom is scary and a lot of people are waiting for you to get going. So much for no pressure. "If the defense is ready, then let the trial begin." The judge intoned, banging his gavel. Then, Sam and Athena began whispering amongst themselves. "So much for secrecy." I think as they continue to talk. Of course, they are girls. They talk a lot.

"The prosecution may call its first witness to the stand." The judge said.

"The Prosecution calls Dias Borenell(Just imagine Ini Mini) to the stand."

The courtroom was silent when Dias got to the stand. I just wondered why everyone was so quiet. I mean seriously, we should just continue the trial like nothing ever happens. Except the Judge and Prosecution are both love struck. Of god damn course, they had to fall for the witness! "Well, this ought to be fun." I thought to myself, letting out a sigh. It sounds more like I am about to die or something. Like a sick horse or something. Of course, that was very common for me, considering how nervous I usually am. But not for everyone else, because of the dying horse sound. "Anyways, Witness, your testimony." The judge said.

Witness Testimony

It was 3 in the afternoon when the murder happened.

There were two women arguing outside.

Then one pulled out a gun and killed the other woman.

"Well, witness, sounds like you saw quite the murder. Mr. Matthews, your cross-examination, if you will." The judge intoned, nodding to me.

Cross-Examination

It was 3 in the afternoon when the murder happened.

"OBJECTION!" I yelled. "So, you say that the murder was 3:00 in the afternoon? I say, that that's a lie. After all, The Autopsy Report says that the murder happened at 1:30 am, not 3:00 PM!" I continued, pointing my finger. "What?!" Dias yelled, trying to rip her hat off. And I thought I was weird. "Objection! This doesn't prove anything, the witness merely forgot the time!" Payne yelled. "Objection! The time between her said time and the autopsy report is a 10 hour difference! There is no way to prove that she "merely forgot the time"!" I yelled, slamming my hands on the table. "GAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Payne yelled, his hair flying back. The courtroom buzzed with murmurs. "ORDER! I WILL HAVE ORDER!" The judge yelled, banging his gavel three times. "Ms. Dias, you will tell the courtroom about this inconsistency right this minute!" The judge yelled, his voice filling the courtroom. "I-I… oh! That's right! The body was moved to a freezer! That's why the autopsy report says it was 1:00 Am, not 3:00 pm!" Dias said, regaining her composure. "Objection! That is another lie. And I can prove it!" I yelled. "Very well. Then what is the evidence that proves that the body was not moved?" The judge asked, as I presented my evidence with a "TAKE THAT! This is the crime scene photo. Do you see a freezer nearby or signs of the body being moved? No? Well then," I yelled, slamming my hands on the table. "Looks like you have some real explaining to do!" I pointed my finger, just like does.

The courtroom was abuzz as the witness was tearing at her hat. "ORDER IN THE COURT! Mr. Matthews, what you are saying is that the witness is lying to us? But what could this mean?" The judge asked, banging his gavel. "This means, that this witness could be the real murderer!" I yelled, slamming my hands on the table. "GAWGFFGGGGGGGGGGG!" Dias yelled, pulling the hat down on her face. "The defense requests that the witness testify about what they were doing the day of the murder!" I added.

Witness Testimony

I was out on a stroll, looking for my friend.

When I came by the alleyway, I saw a woman killing another woman.

She was laughing, saying that it was fun to kill and that it was all just a game.

I yelled at her to stop.

"Well, that was quite the testimony! Mr. Matthews, Your cross-examination!" The judge intoned.

Cross-Examination

I was out on a stroll, looking for my friend.

"OBJECTION! That is a lie, There was a tape recording at the time of the murder. And the voice that said words? Ms. Dias's voice was picked up by the tape recorder!" I yelled, slamming my hands on the table. "AGHHHHHHGHGHGHHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGH! You stupid LAWYER AND YOUR STUPID OBJECTIONS! WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!" Dias yelled, biting on her hat. I slammed my hands on the table and yelled, "I am North Matthews and I, AM AN ACE ATTORNEY!"

"You found at least 3 contradictions in this one witness!" Athena exclaimed, grinning. I was excited to find that I really did do that. Looks like I got the power still. "Wait, let me testify once more! Please, once more." Dias begged, making her hat go over her face. "OBJECTION! You have had way too many contradictions in your testimony! It begs the question of whether or not you'll tell the truth! Besides, one piece of evidence proves that you were right next to the victim when it happened!" I yelled, pointing my finger. "Well ,what is this piece of evidence?" The judge asked.

"TAKE THAT!" I yelled, slamming my hands down on the table and preparing for the showdown ahead.
