Ace Attorney Opening
Phoenix
Hi, My name is Phoenix Wright. I was once a famous attorney that fought countless battles till one day I met a rookie prosecutor that cost me my badge. I aided Apollo through his battle. The courtroom has gotten to be even worse since I was gone. I went back and took the bar exam again to take on these fierce opponents. My road will change forever now because my old friends have come and helped me on my new quest in the courthouse. I am ready for battle, OBJECTION!

July 5, 2027 - 10:00am- Wright & Co. Law Office
(Maya is in an argument with Trucy when Phoenix trips over Trucy's hat.)
Maya
(Looks towards Phoenix.) Nick, what are you doing on the floor?
Phoenix
(Getting up with Trucy's hat. Brushes it off.) Saying hi to Trucy's hat. May I ask what it's doing on the floor?
Trucy
(Walks up to take the hat.) Sorry daddy, Maya hit it off my head. (Places it on her head.)
Phoenix
(Looks towards Maya. Tilts his head.) Maya!?
Maya
Come on Nick, I was only keeping her out of your desk.
Phoenix
(Looks down at Trucy) Now Trucy, if that's true you know not to go through people's things without their permission.
Trucy
(Looks at Phoenix with her hands closed.) But daddy?
Phoenix
No buts, (Looks at Maya.) Maya do me a favor.
Maya
Sure thing, Nick.
Phoenix
If you're going to be the mother figure at least be nice to her.
Maya
(Pits her hands on her hip.) Do you want me to give her a time out or ground her?
Phoenix
(Shakes his head.) One of those will work.
(Maya is seen with her right hand on her head as she nods in distress. Phoenix walks up to his desk.)
Trucy
(Turns towards Phoenix.) Daddy?
Phoenix
(Sits in his chair.) Go help your brother.
Trucy
(Smiles.) Yes, daddy.
(Trucy exits.)
Maya
(Walks up to the desk.) I got a phone call from Gumshoe and Ema Skye today.
Phoenix
(Writing something on a paper on his desk.) Another case?
Maya
(Places her hands on the desk.) Yep, it'll be like old times.)
Phoenix
(Looks at Maya.) (Old times, Maya Fey has been my assistant since her sister Mia Fey died. I remember her when she was Trucy's age. This will be my first case with Maya since I lost my badge 8 years ago. Trucy is my daughter, we've known each other 8 years ago when her real dad was on trial. My last case before I lost my badge. We however had a defense attorney that was part of our team but do to the results of the trial leaving her traumatized she is unable to join us at this time. It did pain me to see her take that trial on her own when I knew she wasn't capable of doing so.) So who's the suspect?
Maya
Her name is Kagome Higurashi, she's on vacation with her family from Japan.
Phoenix
Let's meet her shall we?
Maya
Why not?
(They leave as this scene fades.)

(As Phoenix takes his seat so does Kagome. She is shaking something terrible. Police Cell ~ Jailer's Elegy)
Phoenix
(Looks across to Kagome.) Hi, my name is Phoenix Wright.
Maya
I'm Maya Fey.
Kagome
(Looking on the floor.) K- Kagome.
Phoenix
I plan on being your defense attorney.
Kagome
(Looks up at Phoenix.) You'll help me?
Phoenix
I'll do the best I can. I need you to tell me what happened.
Kagome
I don't know how to begin. The scene was terrifying.
Phoenix
Where were you?
Kagome
I was on my way to my apartment when I heard someone fall in the apartment next to my family's room. (We see a black and white image of what Kagome seen.)
(Search ~ Core 2001)
Kagome
I opened the door to find a women's body.
(Music fades out, Police Cell ~ Jailer's Elegy continues again.)
Phoenix
Do you know this person by any chance?
Kagome
(Shakes her head.) No I don't.
Maya
(Looks at Kagome.) The room next to yours was the apartment to a prosecutor that use to work in Edgeworth's office.
Phoenix
(Eyes opens wide.) That would mean her name is Stacy McMichael.
Maya
(Shocked, Looks at Phoenix.) Hey, isn't she that prosecutor that worked on that DL-6 case?
Phoenix
(Looks back at Maya.) You did your homework. Maya.
Kagome
(Looks towards Phoenix and Maya.) Have any of you run into a man in a red Kimono?
Phoenix
(Looks at Kagome.) No, why?
Kagome
If you do, please tell him not to worry. He has silver hair, and his name is InuYasha.
Phoenix
(Nods.) Okay.
Kagome
(Closes her hands together.) Thank you.
Phoenix
You're welcome.
(They head out of the Detention Center. Music fades out as this scene ends.)

(Phoenix runs into Gumshoe and someone in a red Kimono. Suspense 2001)
InuYasha
Knock it off! I wanted to know where Kagome is!
Gumshoe
(With frown on his face.) Mr. Edgeworth, this dog- eared man is biting my head off.
(Enters Miles Edgeworth. Miles Edgeworth ~ Great Rival 2002)
Edgeworth
(Arms fold over.) Please keep your noise down, sir.
Phoenix
(Looks at InuYasha.) Hey, are you InuYasha?
InuYasha
(Looks back at Phoenix.) Ya, who wants to know?
Phoenix
Phoenix Wright, to tell you that Kagome is alright. I have no choice to help her right now.
Edgeworth
(Taps his fingers on his folded arms.) So, InuYasha is your name.
Maya
(Stars forms in her eyes as she looks at InuYasha's ears) Ooh, look at those ears. There cute! (She runs up to InuYasha.) Can I touch them?
InuYasha
(Looks back at Maya.) What's with everyone wanting to touch my ears?
Phoenix
(I wonder if Edgeworth is thinking what I'm Thinking.)
Edgeworth
(Points at InuYasha.) I'm having a hard time believing those are real.
Phoenix
(Yep.)
InuYasha
If you'd like to know I'm a half- demon, and yes these are real.
Edgeworth
(Arms spread out and shakes his head.) First spirit mediums now demons. In my line of work demons was a metaphor for the flu.
InuYasha
(Looks at Edgeworth.) Well I ain't no flu.
Maya
(Looks at Phoenix.) Nick, I've got a bad feeling about this.
(Search ~ Core 2002)
?
Well if it isn't that prosecutor.
(Lang Shows up.)
Edgeworth
(Turns around to see Lang.) Lang, what are you doing here?
Lang
Interpol in charge of this investigation, hands off.
Phoenix
(Looks at Edgeworth.) Edgeworth, who is this guy?
Edgeworth
(Looks back at Phoenix.) He's head of the International Police.
Phoenix
How come I haven't heard about him?
Edgeworth
(Gives Phoenix a cold stare.) You mean to tell me Apollo didn't say anything about the last case Lang worked on?
Phoenix
No.
Edgeworth
He should have, because Lang is the reason for a new court law.
Phoenix
(Shocked.) What?
Edgeworth
Right, anyone out of the United States Interpol has the right to take over the crime scene. Local police must stay away from the scene.
Phoenix
What about me?
Lang
(Looks at Phoenix.) What business you need with the crime scene.
Phoenix
(Looks at Lang.) I'm Kagome's attorney. I would like permission to do my own investigation
Lang
You'll have to wait until we finish.
Maya
(Looks at Lang.) I don't know why we can't investigate too.
Phoenix
(Looks at Maya.) Maya relax.
Edgeworth
(Looks at Phoenix.) I'll talk with him when the investigation gets underway.
Phoenix
(Looks at Edgeworth.) Can I ask just one question?
Edgeworth
I don't see why not.
Phoenix
If you guys are just starting, when did the crime occur?
Edgeworh
(Folds his arms.) This morning at nine. The body was the only thing that was examined. Ema Skye is in charge of that.
Lang
(Looks back at his team.) Let's investigate please.
Ema
Hold It!
(Ema Skye enters the hallway. Music fades out, Ema Skye ~ Scientist Detective 2007)
Ema
(Raises her glasses.) You guys can't until we move the body.
Lang
(Looks at Ema.) Who's the lady?
Edgeworth
(Looks at Lang.) Your boss today, Lang.
Lang
Well, we can't disobey the boss. Guys arrest the dog!
(Lang's team runs up to InuYasha.)
Phoenix
Hold It!
(Music fades out, Telling the Truth 2004)
Lang
(Looks at Phoenix.) What's up?
Phoenix
(Looks at Lang.) A suspect was already arrested. This would be an illegal arrest. Edgeworth, tell him what will happen if he makes an illegal arrest.
Edgeworth
(Looks at Lang.) Lang, if you don't get a warrant from the chief of police your Interpol license will be revoked.
Lang
(Looks at his team as they were about to place the handcuff on him.) Unhand him men. (The team quickly release, InuYasha.) So that means I have to escort him off the crime scene.
Phoenix
(Looks at InuYasha.) InuYasha, my office now!
InuYasha
(Looks at Phoenix.) Say what?
Phoenix
We'll deal with this later.
InuYasha
Fine, (Looks at Lang.) you guys can play with wolf boy here.
(Phoenix, Maya, and InuYasha leaves. Music fades out.)
Lang
(Looks at them as they leave.) I hate when people impersonate me.
InuYasha
(Faint distant.) I heard that!
(Lang is shocked.)
Edgeworth
(Looks at Lang with folded arms.) The problem is Lang, he's not acting. That is really what he looks like.
Lang
(Shocked.) What?
Edgeworth
(Spreads his arms out.) You see, he's a demon. Half- demon to be exact.
Lang
His fangs are bigger than mine.
Edgeworth
(Shakes his head.) All better to bite you with.
(This scene fades out.)

(InuYasha, Maya, and Phoenix are talking about the case.)
Maya
(Looks at Phoenix as he is about to sit at his desk.) What are we going to do?
Phoenix
(Sit down in his chair, presses the intercom button.) Apollo, I want you in my office.
Apollo
(On the Intercom.) Okay.
(Apollo and Trucy Shows up.)
Apollo
What's up?
Phoenix
(Looks at Apollo.) Why didn't you tell me about Interpol being involved withyour case?
Apollo
(Puts his arm behind his head and closes his eyes.) Oh, that, I was afraid of what you might have done to them after what the chief did to Trucy.
(Search ~ Core 2002)
Phoenix
(Shocked.) What? Trucy what did Lang do to you?
Trucy
(Looks at Phoenix in sadness.) He pushed me to the floor.
InuYasha
(Looks at Phoenix with his arms folded.) Oh yeah, trust HIM with crime scene.
Phoenix
(Looks at Trucy.) Can you tell me why?
Trucy
(Looks at Phoenix. Puts her index finger to her lips.) Well, after Ema Skye gave us the right to investigate he told me I wasn't allowed. I told him I was working with Apollo and he pushed me.
Phoenix
I'll have to call Edgeworth to find out if he knows about this.
(Picks up the phone and calls Edgeworth. Edgeworth answers the phone.)
Edgeworth
(On the Phone.) Hello.
Phoenix
(With phone to his ear.) Phoenix here, did Lang tell you about what he did to Trucy?
Edgeworth
(On the Phone.) He said she was in the way.
Phoenix
She was working with Apollo.
Edgeworth
(On the Phone.) Is that so, what did he do to her?
Phoenix
He pushed her off the crime scene.
Edgeworth
(On the Phone.) Gumshoe take over, Lang you're going in front of the chief of police.
Lang
(On the Phone.) Says who?
Edgeworth
(On the Phone.) The lead prosecutor of this case, of course.
Lang
(On the Phone.) Fine.
(Hangs Up.)
Maya
(Looks at Phoenix.) With Edgeworth on the case it saves the effort of having to do an investigation on our own.
InuYasha
(Looks at Maya.) That guy is going to find Kagome guilty. (Looks back at Phoenix.)
Phoenix
What does Edgeworth knows that we don't know?
(To Be Continued)
Next Time
