How Unnecessary Is it?

Chapter 2: Righting what has gone wrong with Wright

I have to work out the easiest way to get Wright to remember everything. It wasn't going to be easy I knew that. However it's bound to happen at some point.

"Well there's quite a few things you're forgetting Wright. I'll make sure you remember. If I have to stay here awhile so be it."

Wright stared at me.  He looked confused but also like he was considering things. That's a good thing. If he's thinking about what I said then at least he's wondering about it.

" Leave? You left? " He doesn't even remember that. I really wish he did. Well I don't but when he does remember hopefully he won't be too annoyed with me.

"For a time yes. That's why you feel sad Phoenix."  He did seem to not want me to go at the time. I didn't want to leave either.  Well I did but at the same time after what Wright did I really wanted to go back. I suppose now I have my wish I'm back with Wright. This wasn't exactly what I wanted to come back to. At least I can see him. Not how I'd imagine if have to. No matter what Wright like you didn't give up on me I won't give up on you.

"Why do I feel like I missed you. So very much. Why do I know you!" Wright looked at me tears welling in his eyes. I felt awful.

Maya looked at me and then Wright. A smirk loomed on her face. She was plotting something. I dread to think what it is.  "Hey Nick how about you go on a date with Edgeworth. Well of sorts.  You know some time for him to tell you who you are! "

If I had tea I would have surely spat it out.  I coughed a little bit. "Well I don't think date is the way to put it Maya." 

"Well Nick would have wanted that. He was pining for you for weeks.  I often walked in on him crying." Pining for me... Trust me Wright you weren't the only one. I missed you way more than I should have.

"I was? That's why I'm crying a bit now? "  I looked at Wright sure enough tears were running down his face. 

"You really don't need to cry Phoenix. I promise I won't do what I did. Not again. "  Wiped some of the tears off his face . I probably shouldn't have.  He never looked great crying. I never liked to see him like this.

"Why did you?"

"Phoenix come on. Let's try and get your memory back. I have an idea how. Maya stay here." I wonder if he'd trust me enough to follow me. Most likely not. I'd never hurt him . I don't know how trusting he will be in this state.  I  really hope he does.

"... You won't put me in danger right? I don't feel like you will. I feel like you want to help but I'm not sure."

"You can trust me Phoenix. You won't remember it but we were friends. You became a defence attorney to meet me again in court. " I smiled for once. Thought it might make him feel at ease a little bit. It probably wouldn't. I was more reassuring myself.

"Okay I trust you..." Wright followed me outside. I needed to take Wright to places he might remember. I had to. If he doesn't remember. I don't know how long he can keep it up. If he fails a case or keeps somehow doing one this isn't good at all. This condition better fails to better. Then I have to think of something else to do.

"Well I'll just show you around town a bit. You might remember some things." I began walking around the town. I had to think of locations that Wright would have been at some point. I thought about it.

I suppose where that case was might be the best shot to get him to remember. I didn't want to remember the Dl6 incident. At the same time it was one of the most recent cases. That and it made me realize what it means to be a prosecutor.

"What do you think. Wright this is the locations of one of the cases we worked on. This is called Gourd park lake. "  I hated this place. I hated the memory's that it invoked.

However I'd do anything for this man. Absolutely anything. I really shouldn't feel like this. I really wanted to have this man back to his normal health. The things we could do. This isn't the time to be thinking about this.

"What have I been here before? It does seem to be familiar. In some way. " That seems to work. Its working good. Okay that's just what I wanted. The next plan to get him to investigate a fake case... If he does that maybe he will remember. I guess I'll have to call the detective.

I started to call the detective. He picked up very quickly.

"Mr Edgeworth sir! What do you need sir is something wrong?" Thank goodness he'd picked up. As for something being wrong. I can't just tell him that. Oh you know I charted a private jet , came over here just to see what was wrong with Wright.

"Well detective I need us to make a case. Of sorts Phoniex Wright has lost his memory. I need you're help to deal with it. "

"Sir why are we making a case? I mean sure pal I can make one but do you really think it's going to work."

"Look detective I'm running out of options. Please just get it ready. I'll raise your salary. Well I'll see too it."

"Yes sir! I'm on it now." Detective Gumshoe hung up the phone good. I'd assume he'll call me back eventually about this fake case.

Phoniex Wright was staring at me again. I'd assume he was wondering what I was doing.

"Don't worry Phoniex, that's the detective his name is Dick Gumshoe. He's going to help."

"... I think I've heard that before."

"You have Wright." Maybe this plan might actually hold some merrit. Until then I'll continue showing Wright around Gourd park lake. He seems to be remembering small things now. That's a start.
