Phoenix Wright's office where he spends much of his free time waiting for a job. Much of the place is rather plain with a poster of the Steel Samari next to the desk.

February 9.
11:02 AM
Wright and Co. Law Offices. Phoenix sighed heavily as he looked about his office. The place was a mess, but he was just too lazy to clean it. He sat drumming his fingers on his desk, slowly swaying his office chair left and right. "There hasn't been much business lately..." He muttered to nobody in particular.

Maya was also bored, but she was showing it in a much more dramatic way. That being, she was lying around on the ground and grumbling.
"There haven't been any good TV shows on either. Why is it all reruns? Why, Nick, why?!"
She reached up and gripped the edge of Phoenix's desk, pulling herself up to look at him.
"Anyway... Maybe we just need to go out and find the cases ourself? We could be ambulance chasers."

"It's all reruns because of the writer's strike." Phoenix replied idly. Upon Maya's suggestion, he raised an eyebrow.
"Something tells me that you would only want to to do that in case there was a celebrity inside."

Maya paused.
"Well, what's wrong with celebrities?! They're not good enough for you as clients?"

"I never said that, I've helped them before. Will Powers, remember? I just don't think-" Phoenix was cut off by the sound of his phone ringing.
*Steel Samurai tune ring!* *beep!*
"Wright and Co. Law Offices. How can I help you?"

"Is this Phoenix Wright?"
"Yes, it is, who is this?"
"My name is Shigure Sohma, and I have a friend who is in desperate need of your services!"
"Well, come by the office and we can sort out the details."
"Oh, thank you! Thank you! I'll be there in no time!"
*Beep!*
Phoenix replaced his phone in his pocket. "Well, Maya, it looks like we've got a case."

"Well, hot dog!" Maya exclaimed, clapping her hands together. "We went and summoned a client! My supernatural powers must be growing. Hee hee hee..."
The spiritual medium's stomach growled. "Oh, but speaking of hot dogs, Nick... do you think we'll have time for lunch before this guy shows?"

"I don't know, but in the worst case we could just get something on the way to the detention center to meet our client, I suppose that's where we'll be heading next - AHHH!""
Just then, the door to the office burst open loudly, revealing a nicely dressed man who was breathing heavily. Shigure Sohma did not often wear a suit, but when he did he certainly wore it well.
" H... Hello... Nice to... Nice to meet... You..." Shigure finished catching his breath, then stood up straight and cleared his throat. "Ahem! I'm Shigure Sohma, you'll recall we spoke on the phone just now? Forgive me for that rather sudden entrance, I ran all the way here." He grinned widely.
Phoenix just stared in shock. "You... You ran?"

"WHOA, that was so quick! Are you a super hero?!" Maya stared incredulously, her black eyes piercing into the man.

Phoenix slapped a palm to his forehead. "Sometimes I really wonder what goes on in your head, Maya..."
Shigure chuckled brightly. "No, I'm no super hero. I am a novelist, though!" He grinned. "And who might a beautiful young lady like you be?" He asked, leaning in close to Maya.

Maya's eyes bugged out for a second in shock. Nobody had ever called her beautiful before, let alone a cute guy in a suit.
"Uh, M-Maya Fey.... I'm Nick's hamburger - I mean, assistant!"
She covered her mouth in embarrassment, looking slightly deflated.
"S-so, what seems to be the trouble?"

"Ah, what a lovely name, Maya! Like the first fresh blooms of spring after an icy winter! It just radiates of spring blossoms!" Shigure replied dramatically. "I knew there was something I liked about you, I mean aside from your pretty face. Oh how lucky Mr. Wright is to have such a charming, lovely assistant!" He grinned
Phoenix sank back into his chair, wondering why he always got the craziest clientele possible. Was it his hair? Should he have gone with a different style? His suit? Did blue attract crazy people? Or maybe it was just the way he couldn't seem to help but say yes?
"So, what's this case you have for us, Mr. Sohma?" He asked before Maya got any redder.
Shigure stopped mid-swoon and shifted into an aura of despair. "Oh, it's awful! My cousin's been murdered, and the scoundrel has framed my nephew for it! It's just awful!" He pouted.

Maya was frozen solid, her face turning a more interesting shade of red with every sentence the client spouted. Finally, when he answered what had happened, she released the building tension by screaming her next sentence.
"FRAMED!? THAT'S TERRIBLE!"
Her pupils dialated and she fanned herself off slightly.

"Yes! He's been FRAMED! The scoundrel!" Shigure responded, slamming a fist onto the desk.
Phoenix, after recovering from the shock of Maya's outburst, cleared his throat. "So you say your nephew is innocent then? So why would anyone frame him?"
Shigure turned to face Phoenix, a weak grin on his face. "Ah, well, yes, you see... My nephew and cousin didn't exactly get along very well, heh heh." He chuckled weakly. "They nearly tore each other's heads off whenever they were together, like a cat and mouse, you might say... But I KNOW Kyo didn't do it! He may have a bit of a chip on his shoulder and a bad temper, but he's no murderer!"
