Hermits Hut
Phoenix looked at the old man across from him. The old man was still deep in thought, thought whether that was a good thing or not, he didn't know. All Phoenix knew was that he needed this old mans help. He was the only one who could help him.
The old man opened his eyes, "So, what spurned your decision to ask for my help?" He waited for my explanation calmly, in a kind of serene aura. "Two friends of mine, spirit channelers, died last week from atroquinine poisoning. I knew who had done it, but... I couldn't do anything about it. I decided this was my only choice. So many people are unhappy... because of me. I have to fix everything."
The old man looked at Phoenix for a moment, then nodded. "I will help you." The man got up, and continued, "However, I demand a price for my services." Phoenix looked at him. (He didn't say anything about money in his letter...), "How much do you want?" The old man shook his head, "I don't want money. My price transcends money. My price... is your life. When you return to the time you left, I will seek you out, ask how everything went, then collect." Phoenix was surprised. He certainly hadn't expected to have to die in order to save lives, but... it made a certain amount of sense. "Deal." Phoenix said, holding out his hand. The hermit shook the hand, "Are you ready now? Do you have any affairs you need to set in order?" Phoenix shook his head, "No, I'm ready now."
The hermit nodded again, "Lets go outside, its better to have a lot of nature around..." Phoenix followed the old man outside. The hermit turned back to him once they were out, "Do you have any possessions you would like to keep?" Phoenix immediately took three things out of his pocket: his beanie, his magatama, and an SD card, "These." The hermit took them and put them in some kind of pouch, then handed them back to Phoenix, "Don't let this go, or they will be lost." Phoenix nodded, these would be reminders of what he was doing.
The hermit stepped back, "Good luck, Phoenix Wright." A blue nimbus suddenly surrounded him as the wind started to pick up. Phoenix clutched the pouch to his chest as if it contained his life. Phoenix felt himself lifted into the air, and as his vision faded, he felt something he hadn't felt in seven years.
Hope.

Phoenix Wrights Apartment
Phoenix woke up with the pouch clutched tightly to his chest. He got up, and he looked at his old apartment. It was the same as all those years ago. He looked inside the pouch and pulled out his beanie and his magatama. The beanie looked fine, and the magatama still glowed. He would have to make sure it worked, but other than that, everything looked like it was going according to plan.
Phoenix went over to his closet and looked inside. All his identical blue suits lay inside. He closed the closet and went to his bathroom. The mirror showed a young lawyer who was just starting out. Phoenix went over to his nightstand and looked at the shiny badge that sat there. He was back, reborn from his own ashes. He went to his closet and started getting dressed. He had his first case to win, and a mentor to save.
