WrightWorth: Ace Attorney Bridge To The Turnabout "A Phoenix Rises From Pain"

"The 'Real' Murderer..."

'went to the Inner Temple that night and I saw it all happen in the garden, I saw Mystic Elise strike Mystic Maya with her staff!, While Mystic Maya was still stumbling, Mystic Elise moved in to deliver a fatal strike!, Mystic Maya tried desperately to defend herself and stole the weapon...!, It was only in self-defense! You can't blame her for it!'

phoenix couldn't believe what he had just heard, when he finished up writing her testimony, ...all he could think in his mind was about violet's innocence, ...and how even in self-defense, ..she would never do something like that

'So it was in self-defense?'

the judge asked, iris nodded firmly as she looked straight into his eyes

'Yes. Mystic Elise was the one who attacked first!, That's why I tried my best to protect Mystic Maya!'

she insisted again, the judge nodded then asked her

'You moved the victim's body to the temple so that Maya wouldn't be suspected... Isn't that right? Not bad... You've got the instincts of a true criminal..'

'Now then, Mr. Wright. Please proceed with your cross-examination'

the judge allowed, phoenix took in a deep breathe before he underlined the statements in her testimonies, the last two were fine, and the first three sounded okay, ...but the fourth one was off

'She moved in to deliver a fatal strike?'

he repeated her words in a question like tone, she nodded

'..Yes, I'm sure of it. She threw down her staff and reached into her robe for a weapon-'

'What was the weapon?'

he asked

'It-It was... some kind of dagger'

phoenix glared at her skeptically, his suspensions about her haven't changed at all

'Deauxnim tried to stab her with this weapon, To kill maya?'

he asked very carefully, iris frowned as she looked down

'Yes... Exactly'

phoenix examined her movements carefully as he took that in, ...why would a mother want to kill her own daughter?, godot's mocking laughter cut him off from his thoughts

'Ha...! You look like I did after I mistakenly took a swig of Worcestershire sauce, Do you have a problem with the testimony we're hearing from your client, Lawyer Bo-'

'yeah, i fucking do!!'

he stated without any hesitation, the judge's eyes widen as he looked down at him with confusion

'Y-You do? But this witness is your own client-'

'AND?!, I DON'T GIVE A SHIT WHO THE FUCK SHE IS!!'

he yelled as he gave the judge "no fucking shit sherlock", godot blinked at him through his mask as he watched phoenix take control

'your adding that last statement to the testimony'

he demanded, iris nodded as she nodded her head

'Y-Yes, sir'

the judge then tried to take back whatever control he had in the court

'H-Hey! Just a moment! It's my job to say that-'

'SHUT THE FUCK UP!!'

'Nnngghh...!'

the judge shirked in terror as he hid behind his gavel, phoenix ruffed out as he grabbed his notebook, writing down iris's new statement

'"She threw her staff away and pulled a dagger from inside her robe!"'
