Case 17: Turnabout Terror

[The morning immediately after her horrifying experience with the Coral Cannibal, Kay wakes up in her own bed with a start.  Her heart racing, she flails about in a panic, knocking the phone off the receiver.  The whole of Mayfield is treated to the very loud and utterly terrified scream of a young 17 year old thief.]

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

[There is the sound of heavy, panicked breathing along with the rustling of bedsheets as Kay tries to make sense of her surroundings while trying to remember just what happened the previous night.  She's talking to herself, barely aware that she's narrating her own thoughts out loud.]

"W-what was that...?  Sharp pain... and... then.  Just darkness.  And blood... blood everywhere..."

[Huddles underneath her sheets, pulling them tightly around her so that nothing but her face is showing.  She's like a small child convinced of the magic power of her blanket, as if it will somehow protect her against the monsters that lurk in the shadows just out of sight.  And she just stays like that, rocking back and forth and quietly murmuring to herself, still totally unaware that the phone is off the hook.]

No... it got me from behind.

... I see.

I don't exactly know what one should say in a situation like this, but I'm glad you're alright now. A shocked undoubtedly, but alright.

Yeah... I know. It's definitely not something I ever want to experience again...

Just take it easy now, ja? If you find any clues of the culprit, don't hesitate to contact me.

[ And now Klavier realizes he should cheer her up a bit with some news! ] ... or your other favourite prosecutor.

...Huh? Mr. Edgeworth? H-he's here?

[identity profile] gaydrill.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 10:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Ja, just arrived. I can give you his address if you want to go surprise him. [ Totally avoiding the fact that you missed him because you were busy being dead. ]

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Y-yeah... I guess I probably should go talk to him sometime soon.

Did you give him the lowdown on the town yet?

[identity profile] gaydrill.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
... you have missed him, ja?

Ja, I also gave him some information on Westport. I... found all my evidence from the place a while ago.

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
...Yeah, I missed him a lot. It's sad that he's trapped here again, but I'm kind of relieved to be able to see him again.

[identity profile] gaydrill.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
... He would like to see you as well. I'm sure a familiar face of his assistant would cheer him up a bit in a situation like this, ja?

It's unfortunate that he got kidnapped again, but we can only work harder now to get us all out of here.

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
...Yeah. I'll go visit him as soon as it's safe.

[identity profile] gaydrill.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
If you need me, you know where to call. Herr Edgeworth's address is
1248 Williams Road.

I gave him your address as well, so it could be that he might come and visit you first.

"Okay. I'll listen for him."

[Silence for a moment or two.]

"...I'm going to rest now."

[identity profile] gaydrill.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
... you do that. Drink tea and get lots of rest so you can get your energy back.

[identity profile] thief-of-truth.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
...Thanks, Mr. Gavin. Let me know if you hear anything about the monster, okay?

[identity profile] gaydrill.livejournal.com 2010-05-25 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Ja, I'll try and find out.

Take it easy now, Fräulein.
