Chapter VI - Victory!

This is the day, the day in which we'll see if the truth can defeat the lies.

I was outside of the court alongside with my mother, my sister, and the fillies. We were nervous, not just beacouse I'm afraid that they just define Tia and Luna as simple animals, but beacouse one thing more concerning: where was our lawyer!





A woman was running through the city with some papers in her hands. The woman's name was Clarissa. She was already a very good lawyer before accepting the defense of the Tylers. But she was tired of making guilt people went without any punishment for their crimes, as well as good and innocent people go to that horrible place called jail. Maybe that's why when the recently created movement to give those fillies human rights was created, she immediately offered her services for free. She wanted to do something good at least for once. And also, beacouse of what happened to that family.

She was a bit late to get to the court, but it was worth it to obtain the papers she held in her hands.





When my mother was about to have a nervous crisis, our lawyer finally arrived at the place, but I don't know if her presence make any good for my mom's state.

As soon as she noticed who she was, she froze completely. It was the lawyer that sent my dad to prison! I was a bit angry, was this some kind of cruel joke? Will she sabotage our defense?

"You! You! You are the one that...!" my mother tried to speak.

"Yes, I'm." she spoke. "And before you say anything, I wanna say that I'm really sorry for what I did to all of you."

"But! But! But you...!"

"I know what I did, and that's why I'm defending you for free! I know that the court is probably bribed by researchinc. And even with my help, I didn't know if we could do it. That's why I took a bit longer."

"To do what?" my mother asked.

"To obtain this from researchinc." she said as she showed us the papers that she had at her hands.





"And remember," director Osvaldo was talking to the judge, just before the session started, "don't grant them rights, and 5 millions of dollars will be added to you bank account."

"I'll try." he responded. "But the situation here is very delicate. There's too much pressure from the public that if they present something big, I'll have no other choice but to surrender."





The session started, although Melissa had to wait outside since her presence was not required.

I had to testify the moment in which I met this fillies so I could be here.

Even though we had great pressure at our side, we still had to face the fact that Tia and Luna were technically property of resaerchinc. Our lawyer did an amazing job doing her defense, but it still wasn't enough to convince the court.

But when I was starting to loose hope, Anna decided to play her last card. A card that neither me or my mother knew what was exactly.

"... And this papers a worker from reaserchinc was so kind to hang me, shows that the fillies brain structure is exactly the same as a human one."

Wow. I didn't know that, but that might help. I just hope that is good enough for us to win.





When we get out, Melissa was waiting for us. When she noticed us, she immediately stood up and spoke:

"What happened in there?" she asked. "Do we won?"

Then, to her delight, Tia appeared from behind me and shouted:

"Victory!"
