Present Day: Before his murder

'Trucy can read people, almost as if she is able to read their mind, that's not something you have unless you work on your skills for years, The first time I saw her do it, i was in shock'

'And after you came out of your shock, you were very careful on what to expose her too, weren't you?'

he crossed his arms

'she's only a minor, and innocent, of course, i was cautious!!'

he cried out, zak simply shrugged as he looked off to the side

'Yet, I myself have no such "power"'

'but trucy does'

zak said nothing, that was okay for Phoenix, he didn't have to say anything

'..trucy didn't get her power from you, she got it from Thalassa, your wife'

zak shot his head at him, glaring into his eyes angrily

'I will not speak of that!'

'in the public, she was deemed to be "missing", but you accidentally shot her during rehearsal'

Zak slammed down his fist on the table

'It was an accident! It... It wasn't me! How could I shoot my dear Thalassa!?'

'valant would say the same thing, like ever other fucking murder'

Zak growled at him

'Damn you!'

his expression turned into a grief, full of sorrow and self-hatred

'Her eyes... I loved Thalassa's eyes. To think they could read my mind... was frightening. Yet there was a warmth in them that felt... like an embrace. She is dead, and Magnifi Gramarye has joined her'

'..trucy is not the only one with her power, ..she was married to another man before you'

zak eyes widen in shock, how did he know all of this?!

'..they had another child, ...and, ..i think i know who he is'

he took out apollo justice files, showing him his headshot picture, zak glanced down at them

Phoenix:
So the only one with her "power" left now... ...is Trucy?

'This... This boy?'

'his name is apollo justice, he's a new lawyer, recently hired'

he explained, zak looked at him, gawking 

'H-he's an attorney!?'

'I noticed him when I went to visit a ...friend's law offices'

Zak crossed his arms

'...... ...So, what are we to make of this, O Great Ex-Attorney?'

Phoenix glared

'You can show me pictures of strange boys all you like. But you could at least say something like "I'm this boy". I could use a laugh'

phoenix gave him a look

'did you really think that's all i had to show you?'

zak stopped and stared at him, pheonxi took out the photograph and thalassa and pointed at the bralcet

'this bracelet, I'm guessing this is some kind of gramarye heirloom yes?'

zak nodded

'They are a Gramarye family heirloom, what about it?'
