[ She seems to believe that hitting him is going to solve her problems anyways. ]

Why don't you see for us Miles Edgeworth? Think of it as an experiment of sorts.

Well, if it's harmless as you say then you have nothing to fear.

[It's going to literally eat you alive. Please don't take her bait Edgeworth, be smarter than that. ]

[And now she's using him for her experiment. Great. Of all the days he enters ViViD without a weapon...

He looks at her but doesn't budge from where he is. Edgeworth isn't foolish enough to investigate it without any means of defending himself.]

I only said it seems harmless. Appearances can be deceiving, after all.

You're quite right. I wouldn't underestimate it. It might look as foolish as Scruffy, but if we aren't careful it could lead us to our demise.

I'll whip it down before that happens. It's as simple as that.

[ Yeah, simple....only it's not that easy. ]

[You'll soon find that very little here is as simple as that.]

[Edgeworth stares up at the big ol' whale, which also hasn't moved from where it is.]

It isn't fazed by your threat.

We'll see about that!

[ Within a brief second she amplifies the ferocity of her whip strikes by one hundred. She doesn't know what will make the whale grovel if that doesn't work. Her whip's going all over the damn place, Miles might want to watch out so he doesn't get hit by accident. ]

[ Franziska irritates the whale so much that it begins to open its mouth! Soon her whip gets caught within the whale's jaw and it looks like it's tugging her towards the sea. Rest in peace. ]

Miles Edgeworth! Don't just stand there!

Franziska!

[No need to tell him twice, he's already on his way. He bounds toward her and wraps his arms around her waist. Edgeworth digs his feet into the ground as he tries to pull her back.]

Let your whip go! [As if she would. So, saying that was probably useless.

He glares at the whale as if the power of his glare would be enough to intimidate it.]

No, I refuse! It insists on pulling us then I'll just tug harder!

Stand your ground!

[Yeah, it was pointless alright. Having Miles there helps a bunch, she's slipping less. The whale resists in spite of that. ]

Nrrrgh...!

[After today I won't ever take off my sword, whether I'm in the shower or in my bed!]

[Edgeworth DOES stand his ground, amazingly so. All that time that went into training has paid off, and he has enough strength to ensure that Franziska remains on the ground. It also helps that his sister is stubborn as a mule especially when it comes to her whip, except for That One Time.

He skids slightly forward but that only makes him plant his heels more firmly.]

[ Oh woops. If Edgeworth wants Franziska to let go of the whip he's about to get his wish. This time it's completely unintentional as she lets go of the whip while trying to punch Edgeworth. You can't do both things at once. Letting go of the whip results in impact sending Franziska flying.]

I've had enough of this foolishness. What happened to the whale?

[And Edgeworth twists, trying to avoid her punch. When Franziska goes flying, so does he, albeit at a shorter distance; she may or may not have landed on top of him. Either way...]

Oof! [He groans, rubbing his head.] It's no longer interested in us, apparently.

It's got some nerve. You were holding on far too tightly, so I tried to punch you.

And yet you managed to avoid my fatal strike. Next time I won't miss.

[ Franziska stop wanting to hit everything that moves...Edgeworth has such a violent sister. ]

[Perhaps now he'll have a better chance of evading the violence. Or so he hopes. Edgeworth gets back onto his feet and offers a hand for Franziska if she hasn't stood up yet.]

I had to hold on tightly, or else the whale would pull you into its mouth!

You know I realized something, Miles Edgeworth.

People who enter the whales stomach don't come out. There'd be little chance of us getting out if we were to enter it.

But what if...what if our way out is in there?

[ Just a thought, look she's not seeing anything else resembling a door or an exit. The whale's mouth is wide enough to pose as a door. This is terrible logic. ]

[He just stares at her. It's terrible logic, but who ever said ViViD was logical? Perhaps that was how they could get out and back into the real world.]

You believe that since this place is improbable as it is, an exit could be concealed in the least likely location?

That's precisely it. Nothing makes sense here so why bother thinking rationally?

Normal rules do not apply.

[ Thanks for nothing, VIVID. It's her first experience here but she's thinking outside of the box literally. ]

It's...worth a try.

[He nods slowly, not believing what he's going to say next but believing how illogical ViViD is.]

Because you would be right. Nothing doesn't make sense here.

We might discover something of interest.

How do we get that blasted whale to open its foolish mouth? Shall I hit it again?

[ Her answer is always violence, always. ]

I can't believe I'm saying this, but...yes. Whip it again.

[Surprisingly, this time violence just might be the answer!]

On three I'm going to give it as many whips as I possibly can.

[ There's not even a brief pause before she mercilessly whips the whale until it opens its mouth again. ]

THREE!!

[ Soon he'll be greeted by her whip. Does she have a normal greeting? Nope. ]

It took you long enough. Where in foolsvillage are we now, Miles Edgeworth?

[ It sure doesn't look like a sandy beach. Everything's so confusing what is going on? This is Franziska's first time experiencing the ViViD and she already hates it. ]
