Silence spread through the court when the judge banged the gavel with his hammer. "Order! Order in the court!" and everybody shut their mouths.
"You may proceed," he a dit to Gaston.
The witnesses were sitting at a very long table, tableau along with their lawyers.
Gaston smiled wickedly. "Your honor, I am not a liar, but I only did this in the chercher of true love..."
"Objection!" Cendrillon and Charming's lawyer cried. She stepped up in a navy blue suit. "Your honor, my client and so have the rest of the witnesses have claimed that Gaston had," she counted with her fingers, "kidnapped the princes, including Snow White, and during that mission he trespassed through their castles, and almost killed my client."
"Did not!" Gaston shouted.
The lawyer glared at him through her glasses. She took them off and spun them on her fingers. Her silver eyes twinkled in the light of the room. "Gaston, I have 18 witnesses who came up with clear evidence of what you've done."
She snapped her fingers, and a few men pushed a bureau toward them. "This," she picked up the dagger Gaston had stabbed Charming with. "This couteau has been tested that Prince Charming's blood was all over it." She rubbed it. "We also found your dirty, grimy, fingerprints."
"You can't tell if it's mine! That technology is in the future!" Gaston stood up in his seat, and the judge made him sit back down.
"With the help of Cindy's Fairy Godmother," a dit the lawyer, "I had the power to travel to the future and collect the evidence. Of course, I had to go undercover, because they haven't invented time travel yet."
Gaston's mouth went agape. He didn't say anything.
"Can toi explain your evidence?" The judge asked. "And please, what is your name?" He wasn't the only one who had fallen in l’amour with her.
She slammed her card down suivant to him. "Jeannette Brody. toi may call me Ms. Brody, and Ms. Brody only." She spun around and went to the evidence desk.
"I will ask Gaston a few questions," she announced to her clients. She put her glasses back on, and smoothed her brown ponytail.
"Gaston!" her sudden raise in voice stunned the court. "When we questioned toi earlier, toi a dit that toi were trying to save the princesses from their husbands. Now, do toi have any idea of their secret lives?"
"Of course I do!" Gaston straightened up. "I've been watching them ever since Belle got married to that monster."
"I'm not asking anything about Prince Adam," Ms. Brody a dit roughly. "And since toi claim that you've been watching them, I now have a suspicion that toi have been stalking them."
There was a soft murmur through the court. The judge banged the gavel three times.
Gaston's hands shook nervously.
"This is going well," Cindy whispered to Aurora. "Jeannette is the best lawyer we could find."
Aurora flashed a bright smile, and turned to the lawyer.
Ms. Brody yawned. She looked bored. "Gaston, I had interviews with the servants in Princess Ariel's castle, and they all say toi burst in there and kidnapped Prince Eric. I also got the same details from everybody else."
Gaston gulped.
Ms. Brody pounded her fist near Gaston. He could see her shiny red fingernails. "Did toi hear me?!"
Gaston nodded.
She looked at the judge. "Your honor, I believe we have the full evidence of the crime Gaston has commited." She came closer to the man. "Gaston, have toi testified?"
He wiped his brow. "I plead not guilty."
"Lies!" Ms. Brody hopped onto the desk. She swung her legs over and looked Gaston in the eye. "Gaston, we have sentenced toi to life in prison for kidnapping, tresspassing, threatening with a weapon, and attempted murder. Case dismissed!"
She hopped off and watched the guards take a surprised Gaston away. Everyone in the courtroom cheered, including the judge, and the couples kissed each other passionately.
"Finally," Charming whispered.

Le Fou climbed out of the water, gasping and sputtering, and lay down in the soft grass. He had no idea where he was, and nor did he care. He almost fell asleep when he saw underdressed people walking toward him.
The first one a dit something he didn't understand.
"Speak English!" Le Fou snapped.
The first one gasped. "Man killed Koccuum." After a while, Le Fou realized that he had floated all the way to an Indian land where Pocahontas had lived. "It wasn't me, I swear!"
Le Fou remembered that it was Thomas who killed Koccuum.
The Indians whooped and tied Le Fou up. They took him away, and the name Le Fou was never heard of again.

The End. :D
