Description

One day in Possum City, Phoenix Wright entered Parasol's HQ to meet up with his new client. His assistant, Maya Fey followed close behind him.
"Wow Nick! Parasol sure does have a fancy headquarters!" Maya Fey gasped while looking around the front lobby. "I guess so, I'm not sure why there are so many hairspray bottles sitting around on the tables for though." Phoenix Wright shrugged. A pregnant blonde woman appeared out of nowhere and waddled up to them while they were looking around. "Hi there! Oh you must be the Ace Attorney the CEO hired." the woman said, noticing Phoenix's attorney badge.
"You are correct! TAKE THAT!" Phoenix yelled, handing her his business card.
"Uh, thank you it's very nice. You both can have one of mine too." the woman said. She put the business card into her pocket and handed Phoenix and Maya a business card. "Sherry Greenfield, Parasol CEO of Secretaries." Maya read, "That sounds pretty important!" Maya gasped.
"Yes it is a very important job!" Sherry proudly grinned. "Anyway, I better take you to the CEO's office before he goes to lunch." Sherry said as she took them to the CEO's office.

"Nick, do you think the CEO got her pregnant?" Maya whispered to Phoenix while they followed Sherry. "I don't know. I just hope she hasn't committed any crimes like some of the secretaries we've run into." Phoenix whispered back.
Sherry suddenly stopped and waved at someone. "Hi Al, the boss's new lawyer is here." Sherry said to a shady looking guy standing outside the CEO's door. "Ey boss! Your new lawyer is here!" Al Fredo said while banging on the door. "Alright, alright stop banging on the door before you break it again!" yelled someone in the office. The CEO walked out of his office and introduced himself. "I'm Rick Rickerson, CEO and founder of this fine company. Please step into my office." Rick smiled, shaking Phoenix's hand a bit too roughly. "Er nice to meet you." Phoenix grimaced. He and Maya then followed Rick into his office.

Meanwhile at the prosecutor's office, Excella was trying to find a lawyer.
Excella sauntered into the office and saw a man in a green trench coat standing there with a blank expression on his face. She went over to him and waved her hand in front of his face. That didn't work so she showed off her assets instead. "Whoa, pal watch where you point those things!" the man said, finally noticing her. "Are you a lawyer?" Excella asked. "What? No, I'm Detective Gumshoe. I just work for the lawyers, pal." said Gumshoe.

Suddenly, a pregnant lawyer burst out of her office. "Gumshoe! Quit talking to this foolishly knocked up foolish fool and help me find the criminal that sprayed me." the very pregnant lawyer yelled. Excella was about to smack her with her purse but decided not to after seeing that she had a whip. "Alright Ms. Von Karma, I'm coming. Just don't whip me again." Gumshoe sighed. "You should go talk to Mr. Edgeworth over there, pal." Gumshoe said before being dragged off by Von Karma.
Excella waddled over to Edgeworth's desk and asked if he could help her. "No. I'm afraid I can't help you because this isn't a murder case. Even if it was, I'm too busy updating autopsy reports to take any new cases now." Edgeworth explained, escorting her out of his office and slamming the door behind her.

Excella stood there fuming and was about to call Wesker to find her a lawyer when someone behind her said he'd take her case. "Really? You'll be my lawyer?" Excella asked turning around. "OBJECTION! I wasn't expecting you to be so round!" the lawyer objected while adjusting his glasses. "Look Mister..." "Winston Payne." Winston said. "Look Mr. Payne, I'm overdue, tired, and not exactly happy about having to go to court. So either take my money and help me or go away." Excella growled while grabbing Winston's suit. "Well when you put it that way I guess I have to help you." Winston sweated. Excella smiled and pulled a big stack of papers out of her purse. She put the papers on to Winston's desk and leaned seductively over them. "Good! Let's get to work!"

Back at Parasol's HQ, Rick was explaining his case to Phoenix. "Basically, Tricell is suing us over the rights to Pregspray even though they were the ones who copied us with their Pregmist." Rick explained. "You do have proof that Tricell copied you right?" Phoenix asked, rubbing his chin. "Of course I do! Here I'll take you to Sheva. She's our main witness since she runs Parasol Africa." Rick said. "Maya, stay here and don't break anything." Phoenix said before leaving with Rick. "Hmph, like I'd break anything." Maya grumbled.

Maya sat around bored for a while before she took out her pocket mirror and noticed that her hair was messed up. "Hmm I guess the air here in Possum City is drier than in Japanifornia." Maya frowned. "Good thing I grabbed one of those free hairspray samples that they had in the lobby." Maya said before heading off to a restroom to spray her hair.

On the top floor, Phoenix entered a meeting room with Rick and in there he saw an extremely pregnant woman sitting on a couch with her legs spread out. "Uh she's not giving birth is she?" Phoenix nervously said. "I would hope not. Sheva's pregnancy is our biggest piece of evidence." Rick said. "I'm fine. This is just the only way I can sit comfortably because of this huge belly of mine." Sheva explained while pointing at her belly. "As I was saying, Sheva went to a Tricell clinic undercover and ordered a twin sized Pregmist. But she ended up pregnant with quadruplets instead." Rick said, giving Sheva's belly a pat.
"As you can see, Pregmist is nothing but a cheap knock off. Women around the world are complaining about their pregnancies being doubled. In Spain, there are even reports of women ending up pregnant with giant chicken eggs instead!" Sheva angrily said.
"And they have the nerve to sue us for being the rip off." Rick scoffed as he handed Phoenix the evidence list.
On the evidence list was: Sheva, Sheva's sonogram, Al Fredo's testimony, stolen Pregspray bottles, security photos, and an Ugandan Echidna.
"Well this is kind of a strange list but it seems like we've got enough evidence for me to make this an easy victory." Phoenix said after reading the list.
Sheva cheered and Rick gave Phoenix another overexcited handshake. Then Rick managed to get Sheva off the couch and they went to lunch together.

After the meeting ended, Phoenix went back to Rick's office to let Maya know what was going on with the case. "Maya, I'm back- HOLD IT!" Phoenix yelled, pointing at a now pregnant Maya. "You want to hold my belly? Thanks, Nick! It did get heavy all of a sudden." Maya huffed, placing her belly on Phoenix's pointing hand. "W-what h-happened while I was gone?" Phoenix stammered. "Oh, my hair got messed up from the dry air here so I used that free hairspray that they had in the lobby. I guess I must be allergic to it." Maya explained.
"Let me see the hairspray bottle, Maya." Phoenix said as Maya handed him the bottle. Phoenix looked at the bottle and saw that there was a large FREE SAMPLE sticker on it. He pulled the sticker off and underneath was the Pregspray logo. "You're pregnant, Maya." Phoenix said, showing her the Pregspray bottle. Maya stood there shocked for a bit before saying, "I guess that explains why I was craving burgers all of a sudden. Let's go get some!"
"Wow she's taking this situation pretty lightly." Phoenix thought. "I'm sure the cafe here has burgers." Phoenix replied. "You know what? I just realized I need extra burgers now that I'm eating for two. Maybe I'll order 3 or 4 burgers to start with. " Maya smiled.
"I've got a feeling I'm going to have to raise my rates to afford all these burgers." Phoenix thought as he took Maya to the cafe.

The day of the case finally arrived and there was a larger crowd than normal in the court room. The crowd went silent when the Judge sat down at his bench and banged his gavel. "Court is now in session!" The Judge announced. "Are the prosecution and defense ready?" he asked. "Yes, your honor." Winston replied. "I'm ready, your honor." Phoenix replied.

"Good. Now before we begin I must ask. Why the heck are there so many pregnant women in this court room?" the Judge asked with a baffled look on his face. Everyone went silent before Phoenix spoke. "Uh Judge, this is the Tricell vs. Parasol trial. You do realize that both companies make pregnancy related products?" Phoenix explained. "What? I thought this was the cereal bowl killer trial." the Judge said. "No that was last week remember? Edgeworth proved who the real killer was." Winston said. "Oh yes quite right. Hmm, there will be a 5 minute recess so I can get the right papers." the Judge announced before wandering off.
"Is... is he actually a Judge?" Sheva asked, rubbing her belly nervously. "Yeah he is a good judge. He just gets confused sometimes." Phoenix explained but that didn't reassure Sheva any.
5 minutes later, the Judge showed back up with the right papers and the trial actually began.

Al Fredo was the first witness called to the stand. "So Mr. Fredo, you claim that Ms.Excella stole samples of Pregspray while you were guarding it." Winston said. "Yeah that's right. I was guarding a Pregspray shipment in Parasol's delivery area when Excella walked up to me. She claimed that she got lost and needed directions. She's a fellow Italian so naturally I had to help her." Al Fredo testified.
"Then while I was showing her a map of the building, she pressed up against me. I couldn't handle that so I had to find the nearest bathroom to make a the sauce." Al Fredo continued.
"What kind of sauce did you make? Was it tomato?" The Judge asked.
"It was the kind of sauce that makes women pregnant, your honor." Winston smirked. "Parasol makes Pregsauce now too?" The Judge asked with a shocked look on his face. "OBJECTION! It doesn't matter what kind of sauce was being made, all that matters is that Excella was alone with the shipment!" Phoenix objected. "Yeah exactly!" Al Fredo agreed.

"Order! Order!" "Hmm yes, I see here in the evidence that there's a photo of Ms. Excella picking Pregspray bottles off the ground. Care to explain that?" The Judge said.
"I was only doing my civic duty by putting the bottles back on the shipment. There's nothing there that shows me stealing anything in that photo."Excella explained. "However I do have a photo that might interest you." Excella grinned. "TAKE THAT!" Winston yelled as he gave the picture to the Judge.
"What the?!? This is a picture of Al Fredo shaking hands with Giovanni, the notorious mob boss!" the Judge gasped.
"He's a my cousin! That was at a family reunion!" Al Fredo sweated.
"Well explain this picture of you and Rick shaking hands with Las Vegas mob boss Birdsy Seagull. Birdsy helped finance the construction of Parasol's casino/hotel in Las Vegas." Winston explained as he gave the Judge the second picture.
"OBJECTION! I uh object to this because reasons!" Phoenix nervously objected as Al Fredo fell out of his chair. The Judge quickly overruled the objection though.
"Well this is a serious matter indeed. I call for a 20 minute recess to figure out what to do next." The Judge declared and slammed his gavel down.
"A-are we actually helping out the Mafia? I sent one of their members to jail a while ago. " Phoenix whispered. "I don't know but do you want me to channel Mia? I think we need her help." Maya whispered back and Phoenix nodded. So Phoenix headed to the lobby while Maya went off to channel Mia.

Back in the lobby, Phoenix was reading his court record when he heard a familiar voice. "Phoenix Wright, why am I sharing Maya's body? What have you two been up too?" Mia smiled playfully with her hands on her belly.
"Mia, it's great to see you again!" Phoenix happily said. "And it's uh not what you think, it's a long story." Phoenix stammered. "Well why don't you explain what happened then?" Mia said as Phoenix let her know everything that had happened the last day. "Oh that Maya, I should've know she'd do something like that." Mia sighed. "As for the trial, I've heard rumors in the spirit world that Excella is involved with a wanted criminal named Wesker. I also heard something about a Chris Redfield too. I'm sure Sheva must know something about that." Mia said. "Hmm I'll have to use this in an objection, this could really turn the whole case around." Phoenix thought.

Everyone filed back into the court room once the recess was over. "Now then I have decided to arrest Al Fredo for being involved with the Mafia." the Judge announced. "Alright, pal. You're going to jail." Gumshoe said as he went to arrest Al Fredo.
"OBJECTION! I have evidence from Chris Redfield and Sheva that Ms. Excella is involved with a wanted criminal named Wesker." Phoenix objected, pointing at Excella. "So if the prosecution wants to keep saying that Al Fredo is actually in the mafia then I will have to ask the court to look in to Excella's dealings with this Wesker." Phoenix smirked, putting his hands on his hips triumphantly. "What in the world is going on in this court room? You can actually prove this, Mr Wright?" The Judge said baffledly.
"You do have this evidence right? The evidence that Chris Redfield gave to you." Mia asked Sheva. "Hmm evidence that Chris gave me? Let me think....." Sheva thought.

2 months ago:
"Sheva, I'm back from my mission. God dang it I'm stuck in the door again." Chris grumbled while trying to get his muscles through the door. "Chris... just turn to the side. Or just break through the wall, that works too." Sheva sighed as Chris decided to bust through the wall instead. "Phew that was a close one." Chris said as he brushed himself off.
"Anyway, I followed Excella around town and saw her talking to someone and messing with his hair. It definitely looked like Wesker." Chris said, handing Sheva a stack of pictures he took. "Excellent! Now I better put this somewhere safe." Sheva exclaimed. Sheva taped the pictures to the inside of her belly support band deciding that no one would look there. "Thank you Chris. And please stop with the steroids." Sheva said. "No can do. I gotta stay jacked to beat Wesker." Chris replied as he left through the hole in the wall.

"That's right, I do have it! I was wondering what was rubbing against my belly." Sheva exclaimed as she pulled the stack of pictures out of her belly support band and handed it to Phoenix.
Excella slammed her fist on the table and told Winston to drop the whole mafia thing before Phoenix gave the pictures to the Judge. "Uh your honor. We don't know who Wesker or Chris are but we'll let it go since we have now learned that Al Fredo really is just related to Giovanni." Winston lied.

"See I told you. And I just remembered that my second cousins Wario and Waluigi told me about Birdsy Seagull. They're always up to no good." Al Fredo said as the audience murmured. Gumshoe shrugged and went back to his cop car for some donuts.
"I don't know who Chris and Wesker are either, so let's move on to the next witness. Ms. Sheva Alomar please take the stand." the Judge said, confused about what was going on.

"So Sheva please tell us why you think Tricell copied Parasol's Pregspray with their Pregmist products." Phoenix inquired.
"Gladly. The first part of my testimony is this Ugandan Echidna." Sheva said as Phoenix gave her a box. Sheva opened the box up and a fat red Echidna wearing shoes fell out of it.

"Do you know da wae to de breakfast?" it asked. "We had breakfast a few hours ago, you just missed it. The pancakes were great and luckily I remembered that my dentures were in my mouth today so I had bacon too." The Judge rambled.
"M-Mia. Why is there a talking Echidna up there for? I thought it was supposed to be a regular Echidna." Phoenix asked. "I have no clue. I kind of regret answering Maya's channeling request now." Mia sighed.
"OBJECTION! What does this have to do with this trial?!" Winston shrieked.
"OBJECTION! The witness is about to explain everything!" Phoenix objected back. The Judge banged his gavel until everyone calmed down.
"As I was saying, this Echidna used to be normal. He belonged to one of Parasol Africa's scientists until Tricell agents stole him and turned him into this for some kind of project that they are working on." Sheva explained.

Sheva waddled off the witness stand and put the Echidna in the seat and asked him, "Who was the one that kidnapped you?" "Da queen fed me a magic chili dog now I kno da wae. She is da queen. " the Echidna said, pointing at Excella. "OBJECTION! Are we really listening to a talking Echidna?" Winston objected.
"Objection overruled. He has cool shoes and I've had a talking parrot as a witness before." the Judge overruled. "Thank you mah bruddah. You kno da wae." the Echidna said.

Sheva went on to explain that when her team found the Echidna, he was in a room with empty pregspray bottles and a stolen fake pregspray recipe. Sheva then stated how she went to a Tricell clinic undercover and ordered a twin sized Pregmist. But she ended up pregnant with quadruplets instead. "And this is because the fake recipe they stole had some of the Pregspray ingredients doubled instead." Sheva concluded.
"As you can plainly see, she's having quadruplets." Phoenix stated, slapping the sonogram with his hand before giving it to the Judge. "Oh my you're going to be busy soon, Ms. Alomar." the Judge gasped.

"Don't just stand there! Object or something!" Excella yelled at Winston. "I think we lost. I can't argue with that kind of evidence." Winston sweated. Excella decided to handle it herself and waddled angrily over to Sheva. "Those bottles wouldn't have been in there in the first place if Chris didn't go around punching my employees trying to organize shipments! They obviously grabbed a Pregspray shipment by accident trying to get away from your meathead friend!" Excella yelled. "Chris wouldn't have to punch your employees if they didn't steal our trucks in the first place!" Sheva yelled back.
Sheva crossed her arms over her belly and Excella started pointing at her. They eventually pressed their bellies together while arguing. Phoenix and Winston started yelling HOLD IT in the background. The Judge slammed his gavel wildly to try and restore order.

"Al Fredo stop them from fighting or the Judge will cancel the trial!" Rick ordered from the audience. Al Fredo got in between Excella and Sheva's bellies and tipped his fedora, "Scusi, ladies. There's no need to fight, there's enough of Al Fredo for the both of you." Sheva looked at him in disgust and waddled back to the defendant area. Excella cussed at him in Italian and waddled back to the prosecution area while holding her belly.
With that crisis adverted, order was restored in the court.

The Judge tapped his gavel a couple of times and prepared to make a decision, "Well I think I've heard enough to make my final verdict-" CONTRACTION! "Who interrupted me?!" asked the Judge. "My client is having contractions, your honor! You can't announce the final verdict yet!" Winston yelled while Excella gripped her belly.
"OBJECTION! She's clearly faking those contractions because she knows she's about to lose!" Phoenix objected.
"I don't think she's faking, Phoenix." Mia frowned as Excella's water broke all over the court room floor.
"ORDER! ORDER! There will be no birthing in my court room! This case is suspended until tomorrow!" The Judge yelled while furiously slamming his gavel.
The bailiff rushed Excella out of the courtroom and put her into Detective Gumshoe's police car. Gumshoe then turned on the siren and sped off to the hospital.
"What do we do now Mia?" Phoenix asked. "I suppose we just wait until tomorrow and hope they don't fake any new evidence." Mia said, crossing her arms over her belly.

The next day, court reconvened. "After all the excitement yesterday, I will hurry up and reach a verdict before anything else happens. Are there any objections?" the Judge announced. "No objections from me, your honor." Phoenix replied. "My client's busy at the moment but I have no objections either." Winston sighed.
"In that case, Parasol is not guilty." The Judge declared as confetti went flying. "Tricell must stop making Pregmist immediately and must pay Parasol any profits they made from it. Court is adjourned." The Judge announced, slamming his gavel down one last time.

"You did it Mr. Wright! I guess that's why they call you an Ace Attorney!" Sheva cheered. "Ey good job Mr. Lawyer." congratulated Al Fredo. "I knew I was right to hire you! Here's a fat wad of cash and whenever your assistant over there goes into labor, she can use any Parasol maternity ward for free!" Rick smiled, slapping some money in Phoenix's hand and giving him another hard handshake. "Uh thanks everyone, but I'm just doing my job." Phoenix humbly said as everyone left.

CONTRACTION! "Oh no! Not you too, Mia!" Phoenix gasped. "I'm sorry Phoenix, but it looks like it's time for me to go. And it looks like it's time for Maya to give birth." Mia sadly said.
"Thank you again for the help Mia. I'll take care of Maya the best I can." Phoenix promised. "Bye for now. Let Maya know I said good luck." Mia said before disappearing.
"Ow ow ow! What's happening, Nick?" Maya grunted. "Oh uh it seems you've gone into labor." Phoenix answered. "Oh no! Hey wait a minute did you win the case?" Maya asked. "Yes I did! You and Mia were a great help as usual!" Phoenix proudly said. "Oh good. Now I can go to the hospital worry free." Maya smiled. "Well let's hurry then before you give birth standing here talking. Oh and Mia says good luck with that." Phoenix said. "Oh right... Hey, be sure to tell the hospital to make me a bunch of burgers. You should call Trucy too, she might like to see her new brother or sister." Maya suggested while rubbing her belly. "I'll be sure to do that when we get there." Phoenix smiled.
"Thanks, Nick you're the best!" Maya smiled as she and Phoenix hurried to the local Parasol maternity ward.

Epilogue:
"Wesker I have a surprise for you!" Excella said happily while entering Wesker's lair. "What? Did you actually win the case?" Wesker replied back, annoyed that his work was interrupted. "No, the lawyer I found wasn't any good. But all we have to do is stop making Pregmist and that's no big deal." Excella sighed. "However, I want you to meet Albert Jr. and Allie. I even put sunglasses on Albert Jr." Excella smiled, holding her twins.
"What are you talking about?" Wesker said, exasperated. "I took some of your hair and put it in a Pregspray bottle before spraying myself." Excella blushed.
Wesker was about to yell before he came up with an idea. "Yes. You may have actually done something useful, Excella. My global saturation plan can still be completed." Wesker mumbled to himself.

"Albert are you ok?" Excella worriedly asked. "Yes I am. You have given me a great idea, Excella." Wesker evilly smiled. "Whenever I am involved with zombies and BOWs, the whole world tries to stop me. But with pregnancy related products, no one seems to care." Wesker continued. "You're right, Albert! The only reason Tricell even went to court was because a now former board member decided to sue Parasol, no one cared otherwise." Excella agreed.

"Parasol supplies governments and the mafia with Pregspray and has an entire town, Mother Miranda's cronies are quickly turning their village into a city with how much Pregspray is being used, yet no one is stopping them. When Chris and Leon got high and sprayed a whole BSAA HQ, they weren't even fired... " Wesker said, pacing around.

"Speaking of Mother Miranda's cronies, is that squirrel girl order your scientists were working on done?" Wesker asked. "Well she's uh kind of hyper but I'd say she's ready." Excella replied. "Good. I will trade her to that weird Count for an unlimited supply of Pregspray which I will use to globally saturate the globe with Weskers, the ultimate beings. Then in a few years my army will conquer the world!" Wesker laughed evilly.
"Oh Albert, your plans really get me going..." Excella blushed, rubbing her legs together while Wesker glared at her. "Here, knock yourself out or up in this case. I have business to attend too." Wesker said, placing one of his hairs on to the table next to Excella before leaving.

A few days later, Lady Dimitrescu heard someone banging on her door. She opened it and saw Wesker standing there with a squirrel girl. "Is that the stupid manthing's present?" Lady D asked and Wesker nodded. "Wonderful! Maybe this will keep him busy for a while. That Pregspray you want is in that shed." Lady D said pointing to a rather large shed. "Pleasure doing business with you, my lady." Wesker said before ordering his troops to load the Pregspray on to the choppers.

"MANTHING! MANTHINGGGGG!" Lady D yelled, looking for Count Manthing. She heard a muffled noise in the couch so she reached down and pulled Manthing out of the couch. "You sat on me again while I was laying on the couch, gosh." Manthing said. "Oh. no. sorry. Anyway here's your birthday present." Lady D sarcastically said, picking the squirrel girl up and putting her in front of Manthing. "Hey do you have, like, some peanut butter or something. I'm starving." the squirrel girl asked. "Wow! My very own squirrel girl! Thanks, Lady D!" Manthing cheered before going off to make a pregspray and peanut butter sandwich for his new friend.
"Maybe I can finally get some peace for once." Lady D sighed before hurrying off on a much needed vacation with her daughters.

One day in Possum City, Phoenix Wright entered Parasol's HQ to meet up with his new client. His assistant, Maya Fey followed close behind him.
"Wow Nick! Parasol sure does have a fancy headquarters!" Maya Fey gasped while looking around the front lobby. "I guess so, I'm not sure why there are so many hairspray bottles sitting around on the tables for though." Phoenix Wright shrugged. A pregnant blonde woman appeared out of nowhere and waddled up to them while they were looking around. "Hi there! Oh you must be the Ace Attorney the CEO hired." the woman said, noticing Phoenix's attorney badge.
"You are correct! TAKE THAT!" Phoenix yelled, handing her his business card.
"Uh, thank you it's very nice. You both can have one of mine too." the woman said. She put the business card into her pocket and handed Phoenix and Maya a business card. "Sherry Greenfield, Parasol CEO of Secretaries." Maya read, "That sounds pretty important!" Maya gasped.
"Yes it is a very important job!" Sherry proudly grinned. "Anyway, I better take you to the CEO's office before he goes to lunch." Sherry said as she took them to the CEO's office.

"Nick, do you think the CEO got her pregnant?" Maya whispered to Phoenix while they followed Sherry. "I don't know. I just hope she hasn't committed any crimes like some of the secretaries we've run into." Phoenix whispered back.
Sherry suddenly stopped and waved at someone. "Hi Al, the boss's new lawyer is here." Sherry said to a shady looking guy standing outside the CEO's door. "Ey boss! Your new lawyer is here!" Al Fredo said while banging on the door. "Alright, alright stop banging on the door before you break it again!" yelled someone in the office. The CEO walked out of his office and introduced himself. "I'm Rick Rickerson, CEO and founder of this fine company. Please step into my office." Rick smiled, shaking Phoenix's hand a bit too roughly. "Er nice to meet you." Phoenix grimaced. He and Maya then followed Rick into his office.

Meanwhile at the prosecutor's office, Excella was trying to find a lawyer.
Excella sauntered into the office and saw a man in a green trench coat standing there with a blank expression on his face. She went over to him and waved her hand in front of his face. That didn't work so she showed off her assets instead. "Whoa, pal watch where you point those things!" the man said, finally noticing her. "Are you a lawyer?" Excella asked. "What? No, I'm Detective Gumshoe. I just work for the lawyers, pal." said Gumshoe.

Suddenly, a pregnant lawyer burst out of her office. "Gumshoe! Quit talking to this foolishly knocked up foolish fool and help me find the criminal that sprayed me." the very pregnant lawyer yelled. Excella was about to smack her with her purse but decided not to after seeing that she had a whip. "Alright Ms. Von Karma, I'm coming. Just don't whip me again." Gumshoe sighed. "You should go talk to Mr. Edgeworth over there, pal." Gumshoe said before being dragged off by Von Karma.
Excella waddled over to Edgeworth's desk and asked if he could help her. "No. I'm afraid I can't help you because this isn't a murder case. Even if it was, I'm too busy updating autopsy reports to take any new cases now." Edgeworth explained, escorting her out of his office and slamming the door behind her.

Excella stood there fuming and was about to call Wesker to find her a lawyer when someone behind her said he'd take her case. "Really? You'll be my lawyer?" Excella asked turning around. "OBJECTION! I wasn't expecting you to be so round!" the lawyer objected while adjusting his glasses. "Look Mister..." "Winston Payne." Winston said. "Look Mr. Payne, I'm overdue, tired, and not exactly happy about having to go to court. So either take my money and help me or go away." Excella growled while grabbing Winston's suit. "Well when you put it that way I guess I have to help you." Winston sweated. Excella smiled and pulled a big stack of papers out of her purse. She put the papers on to Winston's desk and leaned seductively over them. "Good! Let's get to work!"

Back at Parasol's HQ, Rick was explaining his case to Phoenix. "Basically, Tricell is suing us over the rights to Pregspray even though they were the ones who copied us with their Pregmist." Rick explained. "You do have proof that Tricell copied you right?" Phoenix asked, rubbing his chin. "Of course I do! Here I'll take you to Sheva. She's our main witness since she runs Parasol Africa." Rick said. "Maya, stay here and don't break anything." Phoenix said before leaving with Rick. "Hmph, like I'd break anything." Maya grumbled.

Maya sat around bored for a while before she took out her pocket mirror and noticed that her hair was messed up. "Hmm I guess the air here in Possum City is drier than in Japanifornia." Maya frowned. "Good thing I grabbed one of those free hairspray samples that they had in the lobby." Maya said before heading off to a restroom to spray her hair.

On the top floor, Phoenix entered a meeting room with Rick and in there he saw an extremely pregnant woman sitting on a couch with her legs spread out. "Uh she's not giving birth is she?" Phoenix nervously said. "I would hope not. Sheva's pregnancy is our biggest piece of evidence." Rick said. "I'm fine. This is just the only way I can sit comfortably because of this huge belly of mine." Sheva explained while pointing at her belly. "As I was saying, Sheva went to a Tricell clinic undercover and ordered a twin sized Pregmist. But she ended up pregnant with quadruplets instead." Rick said, giving Sheva's belly a pat.
"As you can see, Pregmist is nothing but a cheap knock off. Women around the world are complaining about their pregnancies being doubled. In Spain, there are even reports of women ending up pregnant with giant chicken eggs instead!" Sheva angrily said.
"And they have the nerve to sue us for being the rip off." Rick scoffed as he handed Phoenix the evidence list.
On the evidence list was: Sheva, Sheva's sonogram, Al Fredo's testimony, stolen Pregspray bottles, security photos, and an Ugandan Echidna.
"Well this is kind of a strange list but it seems like we've got enough evidence for me to make this an easy victory." Phoenix said after reading the list.
Sheva cheered and Rick gave Phoenix another overexcited handshake. Then Rick managed to get Sheva off the couch and they went to lunch together.

After the meeting ended, Phoenix went back to Rick's office to let Maya know what was going on with the case. "Maya, I'm back- HOLD IT!" Phoenix yelled, pointing at a now pregnant Maya. "You want to hold my belly? Thanks, Nick! It did get heavy all of a sudden." Maya huffed, placing her belly on Phoenix's pointing hand. "W-what h-happened while I was gone?" Phoenix stammered. "Oh, my hair got messed up from the dry air here so I used that free hairspray that they had in the lobby. I guess I must be allergic to it." Maya explained.
"Let me see the hairspray bottle, Maya." Phoenix said as Maya handed him the bottle. Phoenix looked at the bottle and saw that there was a large FREE SAMPLE sticker on it. He pulled the sticker off and underneath was the Pregspray logo. "You're pregnant, Maya." Phoenix said, showing her the Pregspray bottle. Maya stood there shocked for a bit before saying, "I guess that explains why I was craving burgers all of a sudden. Let's go get some!"
"Wow she's taking this situation pretty lightly." Phoenix thought. "I'm sure the cafe here has burgers." Phoenix replied. "You know what? I just realized I need extra burgers now that I'm eating for two. Maybe I'll order 3 or 4 burgers to start with. " Maya smiled.
"I've got a feeling I'm going to have to raise my rates to afford all these burgers." Phoenix thought as he took Maya to the cafe.

The day of the case finally arrived and there was a larger crowd than normal in the court room. The crowd went silent when the Judge sat down at his bench and banged his gavel. "Court is now in session!" The Judge announced. "Are the prosecution and defense ready?" he asked. "Yes, your honor." Winston replied. "I'm ready, your honor." Phoenix replied.

"Good. Now before we begin I must ask. Why the heck are there so many pregnant women in this court room?" the Judge asked with a baffled look on his face. Everyone went silent before Phoenix spoke. "Uh Judge, this is the Tricell vs. Parasol trial. You do realize that both companies make pregnancy related products?" Phoenix explained. "What? I thought this was the cereal bowl killer trial." the Judge said. "No that was last week remember? Edgeworth proved who the real killer was." Winston said. "Oh yes quite right. Hmm, there will be a 5 minute recess so I can get the right papers." the Judge announced before wandering off.
"Is... is he actually a Judge?" Sheva asked, rubbing her belly nervously. "Yeah he is a good judge. He just gets confused sometimes." Phoenix explained but that didn't reassure Sheva any.
5 minutes later, the Judge showed back up with the right papers and the trial actually began.

Al Fredo was the first witness called to the stand. "So Mr. Fredo, you claim that Ms.Excella stole samples of Pregspray while you were guarding it." Winston said. "Yeah that's right. I was guarding a Pregspray shipment in Parasol's delivery area when Excella walked up to me. She claimed that she got lost and needed directions. She's a fellow Italian so naturally I had to help her." Al Fredo testified.
"Then while I was showing her a map of the building, she pressed up against me. I couldn't handle that so I had to find the nearest bathroom to make a the sauce." Al Fredo continued.
"What kind of sauce did you make? Was it tomato?" The Judge asked.
"It was the kind of sauce that makes women pregnant, your honor." Winston smirked. "Parasol makes Pregsauce now too?" The Judge asked with a shocked look on his face. "OBJECTION! It doesn't matter what kind of sauce was being made, all that matters is that Excella was alone with the shipment!" Phoenix objected. "Yeah exactly!" Al Fredo agreed.

"Order! Order!" "Hmm yes, I see here in the evidence that there's a photo of Ms. Excella picking Pregspray bottles off the ground. Care to explain that?" The Judge said.
"I was only doing my civic duty by putting the bottles back on the shipment. There's nothing there that shows me stealing anything in that photo."Excella explained. "However I do have a photo that might interest you." Excella grinned. "TAKE THAT!" Winston yelled as he gave the picture to the Judge.
"What the?!? This is a picture of Al Fredo shaking hands with Giovanni, the notorious mob boss!" the Judge gasped.
"He's a my cousin! That was at a family reunion!" Al Fredo sweated.
"Well explain this picture of you and Rick shaking hands with Las Vegas mob boss Birdsy Seagull. Birdsy helped finance the construction of Parasol's casino/hotel in Las Vegas." Winston explained as he gave the Judge the second picture.
"OBJECTION! I uh object to this because reasons!" Phoenix nervously objected as Al Fredo fell out of his chair. The Judge quickly overruled the objection though.
"Well this is a serious matter indeed. I call for a 20 minute recess to figure out what to do next." The Judge declared and slammed his gavel down.
"A-are we actually helping out the Mafia? I sent one of their members to jail a while ago. " Phoenix whispered. "I don't know but do you want me to channel Mia? I think we need her help." Maya whispered back and Phoenix nodded. So Phoenix headed to the lobby while Maya went off to channel Mia.

Back in the lobby, Phoenix was reading his court record when he heard a familiar voice. "Phoenix Wright, why am I sharing Maya's body? What have you two been up too?" Mia smiled playfully with her hands on her belly.
"Mia, it's great to see you again!" Phoenix happily said. "And it's uh not what you think, it's a long story." Phoenix stammered. "Well why don't you explain what happened then?" Mia said as Phoenix let her know everything that had happened the last day. "Oh that Maya, I should've know she'd do something like that." Mia sighed. "As for the trial, I've heard rumors in the spirit world that Excella is involved with a wanted criminal named Wesker. I also heard something about a Chris Redfield too. I'm sure Sheva must know something about that." Mia said. "Hmm I'll have to use this in an objection, this could really turn the whole case around." Phoenix thought.

Everyone filed back into the court room once the recess was over. "Now then I have decided to arrest Al Fredo for being involved with the Mafia." the Judge announced. "Alright, pal. You're going to jail." Gumshoe said as he went to arrest Al Fredo.
"OBJECTION! I have evidence from Chris Redfield and Sheva that Ms. Excella is involved with a wanted criminal named Wesker." Phoenix objected, pointing at Excella. "So if the prosecution wants to keep saying that Al Fredo is actually in the mafia then I will have to ask the court to look in to Excella's dealings with this Wesker." Phoenix smirked, putting his hands on his hips triumphantly. "What in the world is going on in this court room? You can actually prove this, Mr Wright?" The Judge said baffledly.
"You do have this evidence right? The evidence that Chris Redfield gave to you." Mia asked Sheva. "Hmm evidence that Chris gave me? Let me think....." Sheva thought.

2 months ago:
"Sheva, I'm back from my mission. God dang it I'm stuck in the door again." Chris grumbled while trying to get his muscles through the door. "Chris... just turn to the side. Or just break through the wall, that works too." Sheva sighed as Chris decided to bust through the wall instead. "Phew that was a close one." Chris said as he brushed himself off.
"Anyway, I followed Excella around town and saw her talking to someone and messing with his hair. It definitely looked like Wesker." Chris said, handing Sheva a stack of pictures he took. "Excellent! Now I better put this somewhere safe." Sheva exclaimed. Sheva taped the pictures to the inside of her belly support band deciding that no one would look there. "Thank you Chris. And please stop with the steroids." Sheva said. "No can do. I gotta stay jacked to beat Wesker." Chris replied as he left through the hole in the wall.

"That's right, I do have it! I was wondering what was rubbing against my belly." Sheva exclaimed as she pulled the stack of pictures out of her belly support band and handed it to Phoenix.
Excella slammed her fist on the table and told Winston to drop the whole mafia thing before Phoenix gave the pictures to the Judge. "Uh your honor. We don't know who Wesker or Chris are but we'll let it go since we have now learned that Al Fredo really is just related to Giovanni." Winston lied.

"See I told you. And I just remembered that my second cousins Wario and Waluigi told me about Birdsy Seagull. They're always up to no good." Al Fredo said as the audience murmured. Gumshoe shrugged and went back to his cop car for some donuts.
"I don't know who Chris and Wesker are either, so let's move on to the next witness. Ms. Sheva Alomar please take the stand." the Judge said, confused about what was going on.

"So Sheva please tell us why you think Tricell copied Parasol's Pregspray with their Pregmist products." Phoenix inquired.
"Gladly. The first part of my testimony is this Ugandan Echidna." Sheva said as Phoenix gave her a box. Sheva opened the box up and a fat red Echidna wearing shoes fell out of it.

"Do you know da wae to de breakfast?" it asked. "We had breakfast a few hours ago, you just missed it. The pancakes were great and luckily I remembered that my dentures were in my mouth today so I had bacon too." The Judge rambled.
"M-Mia. Why is there a talking Echidna up there for? I thought it was supposed to be a regular Echidna." Phoenix asked. "I have no clue. I kind of regret answering Maya's channeling request now." Mia sighed.
"OBJECTION! What does this have to do with this trial?!" Winston shrieked.
"OBJECTION! The witness is about to explain everything!" Phoenix objected back. The Judge banged his gavel until everyone calmed down.
"As I was saying, this Echidna used to be normal. He belonged to one of Parasol Africa's scientists until Tricell agents stole him and turned him into this for some kind of project that they are working on." Sheva explained.

Sheva waddled off the witness stand and put the Echidna in the seat and asked him, "Who was the one that kidnapped you?" "Da queen fed me a magic chili dog now I kno da wae. She is da queen. " the Echidna said, pointing at Excella. "OBJECTION! Are we really listening to a talking Echidna?" Winston objected.
"Objection overruled. He has cool shoes and I've had a talking parrot as a witness before." the Judge overruled. "Thank you mah bruddah. You kno da wae." the Echidna said.

Sheva went on to explain that when her team found the Echidna, he was in a room with empty pregspray bottles and a stolen fake pregspray recipe. Sheva then stated how she went to a Tricell clinic undercover and ordered a twin sized Pregmist. But she ended up pregnant with quadruplets instead. "And this is because the fake recipe they stole had some of the Pregspray ingredients doubled instead." Sheva concluded.
"As you can plainly see, she's having quadruplets." Phoenix stated, slapping the sonogram with his hand before giving it to the Judge. "Oh my you're going to be busy soon, Ms. Alomar." the Judge gasped.

"Don't just stand there! Object or something!" Excella yelled at Winston. "I think we lost. I can't argue with that kind of evidence." Winston sweated. Excella decided to handle it herself and waddled angrily over to Sheva. "Those bottles wouldn't have been in there in the first place if Chris didn't go around punching my employees trying to organize shipments! They obviously grabbed a Pregspray shipment by accident trying to get away from your meathead friend!" Excella yelled. "Chris wouldn't have to punch your employees if they didn't steal our trucks in the first place!" Sheva yelled back.
Sheva crossed her arms over her belly and Excella started pointing at her. They eventually pressed their bellies together while arguing. Phoenix and Winston started yelling HOLD IT in the background. The Judge slammed his gavel wildly to try and restore order.

"Al Fredo stop them from fighting or the Judge will cancel the trial!" Rick ordered from the audience. Al Fredo got in between Excella and Sheva's bellies and tipped his fedora, "Scusi, ladies. There's no need to fight, there's enough of Al Fredo for the both of you." Sheva looked at him in disgust and waddled back to the defendant area. Excella cussed at him in Italian and waddled back to the prosecution area while holding her belly.
With that crisis adverted, order was restored in the court.

The Judge tapped his gavel a couple of times and prepared to make a decision, "Well I think I've heard enough to make my final verdict-" CONTRACTION! "Who interrupted me?!" asked the Judge. "My client is having contractions, your honor! You can't announce the final verdict yet!" Winston yelled while Excella gripped her belly.
"OBJECTION! She's clearly faking those contractions because she knows she's about to lose!" Phoenix objected.
"I don't think she's faking, Phoenix." Mia frowned as Excella's water broke all over the court room floor.
"ORDER! ORDER! There will be no birthing in my court room! This case is suspended until tomorrow!" The Judge yelled while furiously slamming his gavel.
The bailiff rushed Excella out of the courtroom and put her into Detective Gumshoe's police car. Gumshoe then turned on the siren and sped off to the hospital.
"What do we do now Mia?" Phoenix asked. "I suppose we just wait until tomorrow and hope they don't fake any new evidence." Mia said, crossing her arms over her belly.

The next day, court reconvened. "After all the excitement yesterday, I will hurry up and reach a verdict before anything else happens. Are there any objections?" the Judge announced. "No objections from me, your honor." Phoenix replied. "My client's busy at the moment but I have no objections either." Winston sighed.
"In that case, Parasol is not guilty." The Judge declared as confetti went flying. "Tricell must stop making Pregmist immediately and must pay Parasol any profits they made from it. Court is adjourned." The Judge announced, slamming his gavel down one last time.

"You did it Mr. Wright! I guess that's why they call you an Ace Attorney!" Sheva cheered. "Ey good job Mr. Lawyer." congratulated Al Fredo. "I knew I was right to hire you! Here's a fat wad of cash and whenever your assistant over there goes into labor, she can use any Parasol maternity ward for free!" Rick smiled, slapping some money in Phoenix's hand and giving him another hard handshake. "Uh thanks everyone, but I'm just doing my job." Phoenix humbly said as everyone left.

CONTRACTION! "Oh no! Not you too, Mia!" Phoenix gasped. "I'm sorry Phoenix, but it looks like it's time for me to go. And it looks like it's time for Maya to give birth." Mia sadly said.
"Thank you again for the help Mia. I'll take care of Maya the best I can." Phoenix promised. "Bye for now. Let Maya know I said good luck." Mia said before disappearing.
"Ow ow ow! What's happening, Nick?" Maya grunted. "Oh uh it seems you've gone into labor." Phoenix answered. "Oh no! Hey wait a minute did you win the case?" Maya asked. "Yes I did! You and Mia were a great help as usual!" Phoenix proudly said. "Oh good. Now I can go to the hospital worry free." Maya smiled. "Well let's hurry then before you give birth standing here talking. Oh and Mia says good luck with that." Phoenix said. "Oh right... Hey, be sure to tell the hospital to make me a bunch of burgers. You should call Trucy too, she might like to see her new brother or sister." Maya suggested while rubbing her belly. "I'll be sure to do that when we get there." Phoenix smiled.
"Thanks, Nick you're the best!" Maya smiled as she and Phoenix hurried to the local Parasol maternity ward.

Epilogue:
"Wesker I have a surprise for you!" Excella said happily while entering Wesker's lair. "What? Did you actually win the case?" Wesker replied back, annoyed that his work was interrupted. "No, the lawyer I found wasn't any good. But all we have to do is stop making Pregmist and that's no big deal." Excella sighed. "However, I want you to meet Albert Jr. and Allie. I even put sunglasses on Albert Jr." Excella smiled, holding her twins.
"What are you talking about?" Wesker said, exasperated. "I took some of your hair and put it in a Pregspray bottle before spraying myself." Excella blushed.
Wesker was about to yell before he came up with an idea. "Yes. You may have actually done something useful, Excella. My global saturation plan can still be completed." Wesker mumbled to himself.

"Albert are you ok?" Excella worriedly asked. "Yes I am. You have given me a great idea, Excella." Wesker evilly smiled. "Whenever I am involved with zombies and BOWs, the whole world tries to stop me. But with pregnancy related products, no one seems to care." Wesker continued. "You're right, Albert! The only reason Tricell even went to court was because a now former board member decided to sue Parasol, no one cared otherwise." Excella agreed.

"Parasol supplies governments and the mafia with Pregspray and has an entire town, Mother Miranda's cronies are quickly turning their village into a city with how much Pregspray is being used, yet no one is stopping them. When Chris and Leon got high and sprayed a whole BSAA HQ, they weren't even fired... " Wesker said, pacing around.

"Speaking of Mother Miranda's cronies, is that squirrel girl order your scientists were working on done?" Wesker asked. "Well she's uh kind of hyper but I'd say she's ready." Excella replied. "Good. I will trade her to that weird Count for an unlimited supply of Pregspray which I will use to globally saturate the globe with Weskers, the ultimate beings. Then in a few years my army will conquer the world!" Wesker laughed evilly.
"Oh Albert, your plans really get me going..." Excella blushed, rubbing her legs together while Wesker glared at her. "Here, knock yourself out or up in this case. I have business to attend too." Wesker said, placing one of his hairs on to the table next to Excella before leaving.

A few days later, Lady Dimitrescu heard someone banging on her door. She opened it and saw Wesker standing there with a squirrel girl. "Is that the stupid manthing's present?" Lady D asked and Wesker nodded. "Wonderful! Maybe this will keep him busy for a while. That Pregspray you want is in that shed." Lady D said pointing to a rather large shed. "Pleasure doing business with you, my lady." Wesker said before ordering his troops to load the Pregspray on to the choppers.

"MANTHING! MANTHINGGGGG!" Lady D yelled, looking for Count Manthing. She heard a muffled noise in the couch so she reached down and pulled Manthing out of the couch. "You sat on me again while I was laying on the couch, gosh." Manthing said. "Oh. no. sorry. Anyway here's your birthday present." Lady D sarcastically said, picking the squirrel girl up and putting her in front of Manthing. "Hey do you have, like, some peanut butter or something. I'm starving." the squirrel girl asked. "Wow! My very own squirrel girl! Thanks, Lady D!" Manthing cheered before going off to make a pregspray and peanut butter sandwich for his new friend.
"Maybe I can finally get some peace for once." Lady D sighed before hurrying off on a much needed vacation with her daughters.

Since it's Resident Evil 5's 15th anniversary and Excella was in an Ace Attorney event in Teppen, I decided to make an Ace Attorney x Resident Evil crossover story. They're both owned by Capcom so it works.

Thank you again to ZERO-THL for making the cover and helping proofread the story!

Resident Evil and Ace Attorney are owned by Capcom.
