I was originally planning on my first full length Ace Attorney fic to be about Phoenix and Shelly De Killer, but this idea kept bugging me and I haven't gone through Dual Destinies and Spirit of Justice. Besides, Miles Edgeworth has always been more interesting than Phoenix Wright as a character. I've already posted three DL-6 what-if one shots in my Ace Attorney Collection, but this idea is perhaps my most favored idea. There have been one shots or short stories I've read where DL-6 never happened or Gregory Edgeworth never died, but I feel like non of them ever do anything interesting with them. Usually, they just make Miles Edgeworth a Defense Attorney, maybe have Phoenix Wright be a prosecutor, and that's it. Honestly, I like the idea of changing DL-6 and there are so many ideas you can go with it. I've already given three examples, but this one will be my magnum opus of what-if DL-6 ideas. As for what the what-if scenario is, you're going to have to figure it out yourself, but beware, there are a ton of twists and turns that will be taken in this fic. Enjoy!
A pistol laid at my feet. I knew then... it was destiny. I picked up the pistol, aimed it at the man, who ruined my perfect record, who dared placed a penalty upon it, and then.
BANG!
"AH! FATHER!"
"What's the meaning of this!?"
"THAT'S MY SON, DON'T TOUCH HIM!"
That scream. I...
"FATHER! HELP ME! I'M SCARED!"
Those tears. I... I can't. Heh, I really am a fool.
DECEMBER 25 8:07 PM
HOTTI CLINIC
My eyes felt heavy. The last I remember, I believe Yanni Yogi was choking me, and then...
"FATHER! LEAVE FATHER ALONE!"
BANG!
Oh no! Miles! Where is he!? Is he okay!? Did he get shot! I could feel myself shooting straight up as the two nurses turned towards me, then rushed to my aid.
"Sir...!" The nurse on the left said. I read his name tag, (1) Dr. Savanna.
"My son. Where... Where's my son?" I asked, my voice hurting.
"I'm sorry, but you were the only one taken in. The other one was already dead from the gunshot," Dr. Savanna said. I felt myself turn white. No...
"Dead," I whispered in shock.
"As for your son, we haven't heard anything about a son, but I'm sure he's alright. The courthouse made a thorough evacuation," the other nurse, Dr. Daisy, said. Wait, what?
"Wait, the one who died, was it a boy, (2)albino...?"
