Inspector Anderson was reading Cas’ file when the door opened and a deputy appeared.
“Eh, Luke?” he asked careful. Anderson looked up. “Chief Barnes wants to speak with you”
“I’ll be there in a minute” Anderson promised and he looked down again.
“He said it was urgent” the deputy continued.
Anderson closed the file and stood. “Then I’ll be there now” he sighed and he followed the deputy outside to Chief Barnes’ office. Without knocking Anderson entered. Barnes was reading a paper, which he put down when Anderson walked towards him.
“Have a seat, Luke” Barnes said. Luke. This was not good. Luke sat down. “How are you doing?”
Luke assumed Barnes was talking about Isabel. “I’m coping, sir”
“You and Isabel were pretty close” Barnes said. “How do you feel now you know who killed her?”
“Angry” Luke replied obvious.
Barnes nodded in understanding. “We have charges against you. From Novak himself. He claims you attempted his life by piercing him with dozens of razor blades”
“He what?” Luke exclaimed in disbelief. What a pretentious prick, he thought disgusted. He had always believed Isabel exaggerated when she talked about him. And she had talked about him a lot. “Chief, I guarantee you that I did not lay a finger on the suspect. I bet you anything he did it himself”
“Why would he do that?” Barnes asked skeptic.
“So, we’d have to transfer him to the hospital so he could find a way out. He’s good at that” Luke explained obvious.
Barnes nodded. “I’ll have the security footage checked” he said. “In the meantime I want you to get in contact with the guard in the hospital”
Luke said he’d do it right away and left the office.

The jury had made a decision and woman walked to the judge and gave him a piece of paper.
“To the question if Castiel abused Alexia Moore the jury finds him not guilty” the judge said.
“Yes!” Dean triumphed. He jumped up and walked quickly towards Cas.
Zoey took Alexia by the hand and walked down the aisle.
“Zoey, wait!” Daphne shouted desperate.
Zoey turned around.”Do you have any idea what you put me through? What you put Alex through? After everything I’ve done for you. Gerard killed himself, because of you! How many lives do you have to destroy, before you realize you’re the one who needs to be put away in a cell?”
Daphne grabbed Zoey’s arm. “Please, listen to me. I never meant to hurt you or Alex. I thought I was helping. Tell me how I can make it up”
Zoey jerked her arm. “Stay away from me and Alex. And if you even care a little about Cas, you stay away from him, too”
She turned around and walked away.
