When Andorra entered the courtroom once again, she took place besides her lawyer and never looked at Pedres, going through the whole process again. They stood up when the judge entered and sat down when the judge told them to. The entire Spanish and Barca teams were sitting on the benches behind Andorra, the lawyers and Pedres, Pedres his family and and some old RFEF members sitting there too.

Andorra knew that the team had her back but she was still shitting her pants.

Then a whole list of what could and couldn't be done was read and then the judge started this day of trial, luckily nearing the last day.

"Today there are two witnesses who will testify in Andorra de Los Santos' favor. Can we bring in the first witness?"

The judge looked at one of the police officers who nodded his head in response and opened the door.

Alexia was the one who would be questioned on the stand first and she walked in, long strides as she walked. Her eyes had fire and a will to fight in them. She made eye-contact with Pedres and if looks could kill, Alexia would have killed him right then and there. Alexia walked straight to the witness stand and offered Andorra a small smile before she sat down, the judge telling her to. There was no doubt that Alexia was the captain. Even outside of the field and in a courtroom, her aura screamed strength and power.

"Please state your full name."

"Alexia Putellas Segura-Robbie."

"Do you vow to speak the truth and nothing but the truth within these four walls?"

"Si, yes, I do."

"Okay. Miss Lopez, you are now allowed to question the witness."

Andorra's lawyer stood up and folded her papers. She walked around the table and looked at Alexia with soft eyes. "First off, thank you for taking time out of your schedule to be here today. Is it true that you are a teammate of Miss De los Santos?"

"That's true."

"Is it true that you saw negative behavioral differences within Miss De los Santos between the time period of the start of the World Cup and the recent events that caused a pause in the World Cup?"

Alexia nodded her head firmly. "That's true."

"Would you care to elaborate on these changes?"

"Alexia nodded her head again. "Of course. Andorra is a very talented and young player. She joined us for the first time during this World Cup and in the beginning she was very excited to be there. She wasn't much of a talker but she did pick particular people to talk to. I was one of them but after we were through the group stage, something changed within Andorra's behavior. She started being more quiet and showed a little bit of fear whenever higher up from the RFEF joined us in the room or when they joined us during practices. Especially when Pedres was there."

Santana Lopez nodded her head. "And how would you describe that you saw this.. fear. Withing miss De los Santos?"

"Her eyes slightly grew. Her pupils dilated. Her breathing quickened and she would mostly fall silent the moment that she saw Pedres in particular."

Santana nodded her head and the questions continued like that, Pedres' lawyer trying to hold back on the harsh and truthful answers that Alexia was giving but the lawyer's attempts fell to deaf ears. Alexia hadn't lied. Pedres was really going to go down.

After Alexia's statement and examination, it was Jennifer's turn and she had taken the video evidence.

After the first few general questions, the evidence would be shown. The judge asking Andorra if she wanted to be there or not. Andorra chose to stay.
