If I had any idea Willow was going do this I would try my best to talk her out of this and remind her danger you be getting in said Colby.

I am going change my  plea there’s no point in prolonging said Dean. 

Colby gives Dean hug and says Dean mate like I said before you still got me as you frined I be doing my best to make sure you stay safe in there said Colby. 

Thanks Colby  I might as well get over with and I know now it’s my own stupidity that got me  said Dean. 

Judge says  Dean Thompson I am sentencing you to 25 years imprisonment and with no  proloe period of 20 years. 

Mackenzie cry’s and Colby and Ziggy hug her. 

Angelo smiles as Dean taking away and Colby gives evil eyes to both Angelo and Willow . 

Outside Diner flat . 

I appreciate what you done I know it wasn’t easy said Angelo. 

What would you know and you got what you wanted back off  and we done said Willow. 

Diner flat .

I can tell you now all what was  stopping me giving few rounds to Rosetta to wipe that smirk look  of his face was knowing how much he love to get me lock up as well said Colby .

But please Colby you not going too think of Bella and Jai said Ziggy .

No of course not I have managed this long enough to   not give  him what his wants said Colby . 

Willow comes in and says I am so very sorry 
please let me explain said Willow .

I don’t what to hear it because of you I don’t have brother anymore and I had just found him and now I have lost him  said Mackenzie and Mackenzie runs out . 

Look Colby you said so yourself that for weeks that   Dean was  spiral  out of control  and not even you had control of him anymore and  he was going bring us all down and Rosetta was not going to give up said Willow. 

Look you don’t have any idea what you have done you have sent to Dean back to very prison where it’s death sentence for him and you sent you best friend to his death bed said Colby. 

I know there’s no going back form this but at least Bella not going to lose her big brother and Jai won’t lose his father and  you already lost so much and you are so loyal you would always stand by Dean said Willow. 

Keep my son and sister out of this and just so you know Dean is even more loyal then both of us  as only reason he  killed Ross was because he had some crazy idea I was going to do it now just get  out Said Colby.

Willow leaves. 

Colby listen at end of day it was Dean who stole you gun and chose to shoot Ross and you were shot and unconscious at time so there was no way of you being  in position of you looking like you were going to shoot Ross and you certainly weren’t in position where couldn’t stop Dean and I am sorry  for Dean but was his choice to shoot Ross said Ziggy. 

 

Chapter 10 
Early 2021. 

Dean ended up in hospital after fight in prison  and returns to prison and 
Bella returns home and gives Colby hug .

I hated what Willow done and Dean being in jail and before you asked I don’t hate Dean for killing Ross after everything he did and most importantly I did not lose  my big brother Said Bella . 

We have to be in pretty crazy universe before you lose  me kiddo and gives Bella kiss on check and Colby here’s letter for you it was posted by prison I think it’s  from Dean . 

G’day Colby. 

If you reading this now I am back in jail and I supposed if you have read paper  you know I am now on second murder charge and I know you told me not to do  anything stupid and   I appreciate you still trying protect me but you done enough for me and more then I deserve and there’s  no easy way of saying this but can’t have you  or Mackenzie or anyone else visiting me in prison anymore or you applying to be prison guard here or you coming here and  acting as under cover prisoner as  I need to do this on my own and after all I accept it was my choice to shoot  Ross and I am very sorry for all stupid things I have done and you will  always be my best friend but I need you to let me go and not feel guilty as  I am here because of  my own choices and I what you to know I will always love you as my brother. 

Always Dean. 

Dinner flat 

Bella and Colby walk in and  Willow knocks on door . 

Willow what are you doing here said Colby .

Please I am only back in town for few days please just me let explain once and for all said Willow. 
 
Fine let’s here it then said Colby. 

Okay Rosetta wasn’t going to give up and yes I know you did not  find out Dean killed Ross until after his arrest but longer we hid secret worst it was going to be for us and I didit what to see you lose everything Colby after everything you lost in you life and you so loyal  or see Bella and Ziggy and Jai lose you and so just losing Dean was lesser evil as more people would be hurt by losing you too said Willow. 

Okay then fine I see you point even though hate seeing Dean lock up for only knows  how long now as he sent me and Mackenzie letters to say he doesn’t want anyone visiting him anymore said Colby. 

I know about letters I sure Mackenzie earlier she didit want hear me first but she gave me chance and I think she come to some even level with me and you Bella said Willow. 

I hate Dean going to jail but I have to say thank you for saving me from  losing my brother Said Bella .

Anyway Willow I have to admit  if  we were in other  crazy universe and I was only going  out of control like Dean was  I hope you put everybody else  before me said Colby.
