It's official, Nova Hawke thought whilst sitting in the accused's chair in the middle of a crowded courthouse, this town blows.

Nova was currently under trial for daring to peek at the Mayor of the port town he currently lived in's daughter. Admittably, that was fair cause for Nova to be at least punished. If, of course, Nova had been the one who did it. The daughter only reported a man with wild blonde hair having been seen looking through her window while she took an open-stall shower. Now, normally this would not mean Nova would be immediatley accused. However, during this time, Nova happened to be, unluckily enough, the only blonde-haired man in the whole town. ''I mean, come on! Nova fumed silently, if I had been the one to do it, then I wouldn't have been caught. And besides, she's at MOST a 7. No motivation for me at all.''

"Mr. Hawke!" came a booming voice, directed at Nova. Nova glanced up wearily at the Mayor, a rather muscular man with a beautiful handlebar mustache that must have taken years to groom and perfect. The Mayor continued, "Despite the overwhelming evidence, do you continue to plead Not Guilty?"

"Yeah," Nova replied simply, not believing that this man deserved a "sir" from his lips. The Mayor sighed, leaning back and petting that god-so-immaculate handlebar mustache, searing the eyes of every self-respecting male (save for Nova), with incredible envy. The Mayor looked at Nova again.

"While normally," the Mayor spoke, "we would just convict you, the fact that you have done several good deeds to our town, as well as your status as the 'Prince of Take-Over', we cannot simply put you in jail."

"Does that mean I'm cleared?!" Nova couldn't keep the excitement out of his voice.

"No."

"Shit."

Ignoring Nova's loud swear (and oblivious to thousands of women covering their children's ears), the Mayor continued. "Instead, you will be placed on probation. We recently contacted two female mages to aid us with several issues around our town. You will be assigned to aid them, and they will regularly report on your... conduct. Any perverse actions that are reported will be placed on your record, and when your missions are finished, we will conclude this court."

"Seems fair enough," Nova said, standing up, "will I be paid with them?"

"No. Your duties start tommorow."

"Shit!"
