Chapter 6: Peter's Trial

A certain Peter Griffin soon found himself heading toward Minish court. The judge, the new Minish leader whom was going to trial Peter for crimes against the Minish people. The Minish were quite angry as they saw Peter head into court to sit at the defendants seat. As the trial was going to get ready, Stewie, along with Brian, Quagmire, Joe and Cleveland headed toward the court room but were barred from entering it.

"Sorry, can't allow any friends of the fat evil one in" said the Minish guard.

"Well, I say it seems for an impressive small society, you folks are quite totalitarian" said Stewie.

"Beat it, no friends of the evil fat one should be at this trial" said the Minish guard.

"You're talking more like a show trial to me" said Cleveland, "I know Peter didn't mean to destroy my garden, he was just over protective."

"Wait a minute, you're the large ebony one whom was responsible for building our home?" asked the Minish guard.

"Er, yeah, I believe so" replied Cleveland.

"This complicates things a bit" said the Minish guard to which he immediately went in as the trial was beginning.

"This better be important" said the Minish leader.

"Sir, you're not going to believe this, the kind, large ebony one is here" said the Minish guard, "he was responsible for building our home in the first place."

"Really, let him in then" said the Minish leader.

Suddenly, a light shined down on Cleveland as he made his entrance toward the court room and took the stand to defend his friend Peter.

"You're going to defend him?" asked the Minish leader, "But you're the Great One to us, you're the one who helped build our home."

"You don't understand, Peter didn't mean any harm, he was just over protective of my garden" replied Cleveland.

"Well, the fat evil one was responsible for killing my predecessor" said the Minish leader to which he showed the picture of a humble, old Minish.

"Well, I do not think even your late leader would approve of this horrible show trial you are providing my friend with" said Cleveland, "if you all Minish folks believe that I am the Great One for building your home, then I as the Great One order you to let my friend Peter Griffin go free."

"But Great One" said the Minish prosecutor, "he was the one who destroyed our home."

"Well, perhaps I can be of some assistance in building you a new home with Peter's help to redeem his past mistakes." said Cleveland.

"I got a better idea" said the Minish leader, "you can help build our new home if Peter lives with us for at least three months."

"What, what do you mean by that?" asked Peter.

"It means you'll have to live with us for three months, so that you know how our lives work, and what devastating things you did would do onto you" replied the Minish leader.

"So it's settled then, that would be his punishment" said the Minish prosecutor.

After the trial, Cleveland went back right outside where Quagmire, Joe, Brian and Stewie were waiting for him.

"So how did things go in there?" asked Brian.

"They think I'm the Great One whom helped build their homes" said Cleveland, "I got Peter off scot free from any major charges. The only thing is that he shouldn't go back to his regular size for about another three months. In the mean time, I think it's best we better get back to our normal sizes and help those Minish build their new home."

After going outside in the living room of the house, Stewie took out his Shrink and Grow Ray and enlarged the radius of the ray to encircle everyone which Cleveland, Quagmire, Joe, Brian and Stewie all grew back to their original sizes. Lois came into the scene wondering where was Peter.

"Have you seen Peter lately?" asked Lois.

"Er, I think he's still small sized" replied Brian, "he's going to spend three months with the Minish to know what it's like being small.

"Apparently, they see me like some sort of a god" added Cleveland, "since I'm responsible for building their original home, and I'll be more than happy enough to build their second home."

"Oh thank goodness" said Lois, "finally these Minish can leave."

About another hour later or so, Cleveland was outside in his new garden creating tiny homes for the Minish. One of the homes was build quite poorly on purpose by one of the Minish to be for a certain Peter Griffin to stay for three months.

"You sure this is going to be stable enough for whoever's going to live there?" asked Cleveland to the Minish leader.

"Sure Great One" replied the Minish leader.

After Cleveland had put on the finishing touches of his new garden, the Minish for the most part were really happy. The only one whom wasn't was a certain Peter Griffin whom had to live in a shack that Cleveland helped the Minish people create. The shack was quite in poor condition for Peter, and the bed there didn't really have any soft covers but instead with rags for the covers.

"Ah this sucks!" cried Peter.

"Should thought about that before you destroyed our homes" laughed a Minish guard whom walked by his shack.

"Well face it Peter, it could be worse" said Cleveland as Peter could see Cleveland's eye through the window, "it could be raining."

Suddenly Cleveland spoke too soon, as storm clouds gathered in the sky, drops of rain came tumbling down on the new homes of the Minish which were well protected except for Peter's. Peter soon found his shack quite a bit flooded.

"I take that back, this sucks even more!" cried Peter who then sat sadly in his bed.

"Look on the bright side Peter, you only have to do this for three months, see you in three months oh also there's an owl that use to come by here to pick up its prey that was in my old garden" added Cleveland, "you may want this."

Cleveland hands Peter a large tooth pick which was going to be used as a weapon by Peter.

"Ah, thanks Cleveland, you always know how to lighten things up here" said Peter.

The scene ends with Peter still trying to get the water out of his shack, and Cleveland heading inside his house to rest, while his Minish friends also rested in their homes.
