After a car accident claimed Ema’s parents, she was raised by her much older sister, Lana. For awhile, things were great. That all changed one day when Ema was about fourteen years old. There was an award ceremony at the prosecution office, and Ema waited for it to finish in Lana’s office, which was shared between her and Detective Gant. A thunderstorm caused a power outage at about the same time, which created a perfect opportunity for a dangerous serial killer to escape questioning. Joe Darke, the serial killer, exit pursued by Neil Marshall, a prosecutor. Joe Darke tried to hide out in Lana’s office. Ema was still waiting in there. It doesn’t take a genius to add up two plus two and get trauma.
Not murder, though. Due to an unfortunate series of events, Ema, Neil, and Joe ended up unconscious on the floor. Detective Gant returned at about this point, and proceeded to solve the problem. Namely, by murdering Neil with a pointed statue and making it look like Ema did it. When Lana entered the room, Gant blackmailed her with that information and got her to re-arrange the crime scene to frame Joe Darke instead.
For two years, the true events of what would become known as SL-9 remained hidden. In the meantime, life went on. Ema repressed most of what happened to her, and picked up a liking for science. Gant got himself promoted to chief of police for catching Joe Darke. Lana got promoted to chief prosecutor, and began to act very coldly to Ema. Still, it wasn’t until the February when Ema was almost sixteen that all the hanging threads in the air started tying together.
Lana was arrested for murdering a detective, and Ema went to Phoenix Wright for help. More specifically, she went to her sister’s old friend Mia Fey for help, not realizing that she’d been dead for a few months by the time she showed up. Even so, Phoenix took the case and Ema went along with him as his assistant. He not only proved that Lana didn’t murder the detective, he also proved that Ema didn’t accidentally murder Neil Marshall all those years ago. Gant was the man behind the murders, and the blackmail, and the forged evidence plaguing the department.
Ema and Lana repaired their relationship, even though Lana served some time for her role in forging the evidence. After the cases were solved, Ema went to study forensics with a family friend in Europe. She visited Japanifornia on occasion, even pitching in to help Mr. Edgeworth once. Still, for the most part, she stayed in Europe, studying. She came back for good to take the test that’d make her an official forensic scientist.
She failed that test and ended up a detective. So much for a lifelong ambition. This, naturally, lead to a slight attitude adjustment, as well as a habit for munching on snackoos when she was frustrated. It only got worse when she was forced to work for Klavier Gavin. Not only was he more sparkly than a Twilight vampire, Klavier was the one who stripped Mr. Wright of his badge a few years ago. Needless to say, she didn’t like him very much.
When Apollo Justice started investigating his second case, Ema didn’t give him the time of day until he proved he knew Mr. Wright. That roadbump out of the way, she gave him as much assistance as scientifically possible. New devices were tested, DS styluses were abused, and snackoos were used as projectile weapons. Most importantly, Ema successfully tested numerous objects for poison in the very first case used in the Jurist System. This helped prove Kristoph Gavin guilty of murdering Drew Misham, attempting to murder Drew’s daughter, Vera, and being the source of the forged evidence that got Mr. Wright disbarred.
