Chapter 01
In jail, Joey re-told Rock Coyote (Wile E.'s unmentioned lawyer brother,) as well as a Yuskay Lawyer and one of the new Mack Roo lawyers the truth as far as he knew it. He had been unconscious and nearly dead during the event where Super Rat took over his body and went out to kill Bandit Pony. Joey only learned about the kill strike recently when Founder Core told him about it. "I in no way planned this so called crime they say I had full control over doing. As Albert fully knows, Super Rat was in the process of taking over my entire body."
Rock said, "It really does not look good for you, Joey. Especially if more evidence does not surface."
The Mack Roo lawyer then asked, "Was there any witnesses to see yas laying in that bed that we can possibly speak to, Joey?"
Joey replied, "Only one; but I am not sure if his word can be trusted if he was in on this so-called kill plot. He was present when I first got my powers on Earth. Minos Del Malign's hench rat, Virus was watching over me while he read a newspaper."
The Yuskay Lawyer hummed in an almost dark growl. "My father has never liked the underhanded crap that the cats on this planet pull on unfortunate humans like yourself. I could probably get you out of this cell by tomorrow morning if Albert and Paul will permit the payment of a bail in your case, Joey. You are supposed to be the Hero's hero in Meta Star City. And now this underhanded pile of shit comes to light."
Joey then said, "Your father is in charge of the Yuskay Groomers, isn't he? Do you think you could arrange a cleansing examination for me to make sure there are no more nasty surprises waiting to pull another rug out from under me?"
The Yuskay Lawyer said, "We will have to clear your bail first, Joey. I personally think Founder Core knows more than they are letting on in regards to Super Rat. It seems suspicious that Overcat and Minos just happened to have their fight on your family's horse farm property back on Earth. Conveniently in time for you to ride Thunderfire into their scene and be affected by a nasty Toonium based transformation surprise."
Rock remarked, "Virus may be guilty of the event himself since before he suggested that you get Albert on Board, he had no intention of letting Albert examine your powers at all. This seemed to prove true when Albert found the Toonium link to your powers. But if you have the Yuskay Groomers remove the Toonium link and replace your powers with all natural fresh powers, then Albert will lose any claim he may have on you. If he owns your Toonium based Powers as he claimed and most of those powers were extracted into Super Rat when you had him removed from your body, and later they claimed that no one else on QC Planet has your blood type, which was a bald-faced lie, mind you, Joey... Both Captain Rabbit and Moonfire have your blood type. And Founder Core knew this. They really do not like having to rely on those two individuals for assistance. Captain Rabbit is involved with the All Stars where Lightstrike is at, while Moonfire is under Arden's protection currently."
Joey stated, "I knew something fishy was going on. Aside from the bail, what do we do about this?"
The Mack Roo lawyer said, "I need to follow up some other leads I have in regards to your case, Joey. Mack Roo services was called by Hawk-Eye in regards to your origin on the very night your family migrated to Meta Star City. Hawk-Eye implied that Green Arrow knew your entire origin and was able to recite it to him just before your family drove through the Western Check Point. This would suggest that your accident was scripted if a hero already knew of the event especially since your family had not released the details to the public as yet."
Joey smiled. "Leave it to the Marvel Comics archer to let the beast out of the bag. The Marvel guys tend to do whatever they want where as the DC Heroes generally obey what Founder core tells them to say and do. You follow up on Hawk-Eye's claim, sir. If he told you this, then it must be true."
The Yuskay Lawyer said, "I will arrange your bail if they permit it as well as your Yuskay Groomer appointment. If Founder Core chooses to deny you the privilege to have this cleansing done, then we will know that they are up to something. We will also contact Albert's father in Nirvana and inform him of the fiasco that his son is involved in. Having the Master Cat on board this case is actually a smart move."
Rock then mentioned something no one was aware of. "I think you lawyers should be aware that there are two separate Lord Paul's in existence. I have heard that both are in operation on this planet. We need to know which one made the recent arrest on Joey. The two lords are Paul Pardusius the Demon Panther and Paul Haley the Toonium based New World Mutant panther gargoyle. Sadly, they look identical except for the fact that the demon panther has demonic energy in his body while the other reeks of Toonium Mutagen."
Joey then said, "If this is the case, then Founder Core is both corrupted and biased toward the Toonium Trap. I think we should get Lady Amaterasu in here and let her know about the two lords both of whom are called Paul. I am sure she wouldn't want to land in the same Toonium goop with the others if Founder Core takes a fall during this case."
Rock nodded his head. "I concur with your decision, Joey. I will get her in here right now."
