Hey, Nick, you know what I-

...Hey, Nick? When did your couch become a desert?

[Maya Fey has leisurely woken up from her nap on the couch in Phoenix Wright's office to find that she is not on the couch in Phoenix Wright's office. In fact, she's not in his office at all! She is instead in the back of a covered wagon in the middle of a desert,

My goodness, that's annoying. Would you be quiet? There's no need to be so noisy.

Huh??

[Hello there, sudden voice! Maya is startled enough that she sits back down, and stares at everything around her until she finally notices that the thingy on her wrist is flashing, and, upon closer examination, is giving her a video feed of someone. She gasps - this is new! Since when can bracelets do this??]

O-Oh! I'm sorry! But... what's going on here? I just woke up and I'm in a desert, in a covered wagon, and I don't know how I got here... was I channeling someone who took my body here or something?

Channeling someone?

permavideo right back atcha!

[kuraingirl]

Yes, channeling someone! Like, a dead spirit.

[Obviously.]

[oooh_specimens]

I doubt it.

Unless the spirit arrived with you. In any case, you can't leave.

[kuraingirl]

I can't leave? What do you mean, I can't leave?

[oooh_specimens]

We're all of us trapped here with no means of escape.

[kuraingirl]

Huh... so I was right, I was kidnapped. Again.

[oooh_specimens]

Apparently.

I've yet to determine the origin of the mechanism by which we arrive. It's most frustrating.

[kuraingirl]

Yeah, I can see how that would be really annoying! But... does that mean that everyone here was kidnapped?

[oooh_specimens]

I haven't had the opportunity to research each individual member of the community, though that seems to be the general consensus.

[kuraingirl]

Wow... that is so weird! This must be one seriously big operation then, to have kidnapped us all!

[oooh_specimens]

Or something with a great deal of power.

[kuraingirl]

You think that this is a thing that brought us all here? But... what motive could a thing have for doing this?

[oooh_specimens]

It is merely a hypothesis. I have yet to collect sufficient data to construct a theory, let alone prove it.

[His golden eyes narrow slightly.]

It looks suspiciously like an experiment.

[kuraingirl]

An... experiment.

Well, I have a few choice words for whoever it was that decided that it was okay to experiment on us.

[Wow. Be impressed, man. You're getting serious!Maya. She's almost never this serious. It's impressive, really.]
