"I see no reason to further prolong the deadline," Kefka said. No one was entirely certain where he had gotten the wonderfully bushy beard from, but no one felt inclined to ask. Or at least, risk the consequences of asking. "Radius will be remanded into the custody of Luca Blight whereupon he will be gutted lik..."
"Alright! Who dares object to my verdict!"
"I do," stated a dapper man in a maroon suit accompanied by a scruffier fellow in a dirty coat.
"So, you've got a problem with us dragging this guy away," Kefka said, jerking his thumb and Radius, and seeming almost gleeful at the prospect of being challenged.
"Not at all," the fellow says, waggling his finger at Kefka. "I come instead of this person." he says, pointing at Janice, the Chrono Cross Bunny Girl.
"What do you want with her?"
"Because she is really this," he says calmly handing over a picture from the Court Record.
"So you're saying that this bunny girl is actually a giant badger."
"A simple investigation will show there is no other verdict."
"Your honour, this pig is clearly insane!" Luca stated, with his brand new blue suit (of armour) and a new, different, spikey hair cut. "Anyone can see the bunny ears, clearly demonstrating that she can only be a bunny pig!"
"Your honour, a prosecutor never goes to trial without perfect evidence! And I shall present it! Take a look at this photograph."
"Hah!" sneered Luca. "You can clearly see the bunny ears in this picture."
"He's right! An obvious sign that you're wasting the court's time. I'll give you one chance to rebut before you're well done!"
"For a perfect prosecutor such as myself, one chance is all I need! If you would just turn your attention to this spot here."
"The base of her ears?"
"Precisely. If you note, that line right there is indicative of a hairband."
"Which means?"
"If you look further, you will see the width is of the sort used for novelty hairbands, and furthermore, the ears themselves are attached to the hairband! Detective, if you would demonstrate what this means?"
"Sure thing, Mr. Edgeworth!"
"N-n-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Janice screamed as Gumshoe reached out and easily tore off the fake ears, leaving behind a stunned court.
"It IS a giant badger." Kefka stated in wonder, as they all looked at the figure formerly known as Janice.
"I was fooled by a pig!" Luca wailed at the same time.
"Indeed," Edgeworth said as he gave a bow. "A perfect case, with perfect evidence, for a perfect verdict. The only thing left is to find his true identity. Detective?"
Gumshoe also set to that with a will, quickly grabbing the Badger's head, as the person inside scrambled back, leaving the head behind, revealing Officer Mike Meekins. And also revealing the gun in his hand.
"No! No you won't! I'm not coming back! If you try it, I'll shoot you!"
"Hah, you can't trick me, Pal! Even I know that the Bad Badger's gun only fires blanks!"
"N-n-n-NOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"Well, now that this is done," Edgeworth stated, "I think it is time for us to head back to the precinct, and have a very long discussion about your salary, officer."
And with that, the three of them left, the detective dragging off the catatonic officer.
"Well then. Now that that delightful interruption is out of the way, I sentence Radius to be held by Luca Blight, to be slaughtered like a pig at earl"
"ENOUGH!" came the furious voice of Rolf Lansdale as he stormed out of the Gallery. "I've had it to here with this farce, and I'm not going to stand for it anymore. I mean... I've even figured out who everyone else is and... they'll make the more annoying parts of the DL be annoying somewhere else if we just let them do their thing. So that's it, I'm leaving!"
"Hold on, no one said you could leave yet!" Kefka said in his most menacing voice as he began to loom over the departing Rolf.
This proved to be a poor choice of actions as the angry godlike simply blasted him with a shot of Megid and continued on his way.
Radius, seeing his chance also rose up in defiance.
"Aha! As he stood against injustice, so will I stand against you! Today, you face the finest swordsman in all of Termina! If I can just remember where my sword is."
As he stood around trying to remember where it was, Luca simply walked up and cut him down, and with a glare, sent the rest of the group off into hiding for the night.
NOYN (Mike Meekins - SCUM BADGER) has had his salary renegotiated.
Xanth (Rolf Landale - TOWN GODLIKE) has walked off.
Alice (Radius - TOWN AMNESIAC COP) hath been slain.Night starts now. There will be at least 48 hours before Day 3 starts.
