A/N Hello everyone, i'm really nervious about this chapter. I know nothing about prisons, other then what i've seen on movies and tv shows. I hope I have everything correct. I also tried to be more detailed in this chapter, which is something i'm not very good at lol. Anyway, i'll shut up here. It's almost 2:00am and I want to do some reading before bed. I hope you like this chapter! Oh, one question. Does anyone know how often people are allowed to visit inmates in prison? I don't have a clue lol.

gerfan: I'm glad you liked it. I can already tell you, Alex will go visit Bobby as much as she can. However, when she visits in prison, there will be a glass window between them ( cries ). I wish I could have them be in a room together again, but I want this to be as real as possible. Thanks!

Shellster: I'm really glad you liked it. Thanks for correcting me on my spelling. I'm not the best at English so... I do mess up sometimes. Plus I do most of my writting late at night, so i'm usually not totally awake lol. Anyway, thanks for pointing those words out to me. I tried to make this chapter more detailed too. I hope you likeit. Thank you!

The story continues.

The prison bus drove through the gates and onto the prison grounds. Bobby turned around, looking behind him through the rear view mirror. He watch as the prison gates closed, he knew it might be the last time that he would ever see the outside of the prison again. Then he turned and looked out the bus window at his surroundings. He saw huge brick walls with barbed wire loops on top, tall chain link electric fences, then he look straight ahead and saw the prison itself. It was a large brick building, bars covered all of the windows, armed guards could be seen on the roof top. The next thing Bobby saw was the large prison yard. It was filled with many prisoners, all watching the prison bus through the fence. Bobby wondered if they knew that he was a cop as the prisoners in the bus had? The bus then drove into what looked like a large garage. Once inside, Bobby saw six armed guards standing by an entry door that lead into the prison. The bus pulled up next to the small door and came to a stop. The doors of the bus flung open and two of the guards entered the bus. They started leading prisoners out one by one. It took about a half hour before Bobby was lead out of the bus by two guards. They lead him through the small prison door. Once inside he was taken into a small room and searched from head to toe. After being cleared of having any weapons, he was assigned his prison number, given his new cloths and lead to the shower. After that, two new guards came and lead Bobby down a long hallway. At the end of the hallway was a door, Bobby was lead through the door and there in front of his was the long cell block. He couldn't believe how many cells and prisoners he saw.

As soon as the guards lead him down the cell block, the screaming began. All Bobby could hear was prisoners screaming threatsat him. The screams were coming from everywhere. This sittuation was becoming more and more uncomfortable by the minute. The walkto the cell was a long one. Bobby was getting more and more worried as he was lead down the cell block. I'm gonna be in big trouble if they toss me in a cell with some of these guys. Bobby thought to himself. A moment later, the two guards stopped at an empty cell. They opened the door and put Bobby inside. Needless to say, Bobby was very, very thankful that he was put into an empty cell, instead of being put in with some of the men he had just walked past. It was clear that he was not going to be a well liked inmate and he knew that some of the inmates would kill him in a second if they were given the chance. At least Bobby was safe, for now anyway and he wasn't totally surrounded by inmates for there were three concreate walls that blocked most of the other inmates views. Bobby climbed in the bottom bunk and layed down. He pulled the covers up over his head and tried to block the angry shouting that was coming from the other inmates. Bobby couldn't believe how just much his life had changed in such a short peroid of time. He had gone from being a crime solving detective one day to being a convicted murder the next. Now here he was, sitting in a prison cell. The whole ordeal seemed like a dream in so many ways, yet he knew it wasn't. After all, this was begining to get worse then any nightmare he had ever had.

Alex had done as Deakins instructed, she worked on her current case until around 5:00pm. She was finished for the day, well offically anyway. Alex may have been done with work for the day, but she wasn't going home. Instead she pulled out her and Bobby's past case files. She looked over case after case, hoping to find the answers she was looking for. After about an hour, Alex found a case file that she and Bobby had worked on about a year earlier. A 26 year old man was accused of murdering his girlfriend. Both Bobby and Alex knew the man was guilty, but they had no way of directly linking the young man to the crime. It was one case where there just wasn't enough evidence to prove their suspect was guilty so he walked. However, he had threatened to get even with Bobby and Alex for trying to put him away. The young man lived only 6 blocks from where Denise Willows was murdered and even more interesting was the fact that Bobby had been dating Denise at the time of the investigation. Alex still didn't know how the young man would have gotten Bobby's blood, but she figured it was possible and she felt it was a leadworth checking out. Alex took the file, which included the young man's address and headed over to his apartment. She had a some questions for this young man.
Somehow, Bobby had managed to fall asleep for a little while. He was awaken about an hour later by the sound of the prisoners shouting once again. They had stopped for a little while, but now they were back at it again. Bobby started thinking about his partner again. He wondered if she was okay. He remembered how emotional she had been earlier that morning just before he left. He couldn't get the image of her sitting in the visiting room crying out of his mind. Bobby had been surprized when Alex wrapped her arms around him and he wished that he would have been able to wrap his arms around at that moment. He wished he would have been able to comfort her, make her understand that it wasn't her fault, but he couldn't. The hand cuffs had held his hands behind his back. Bobby hated to see his partner like that.

The sound of footsteps coming down the cell block pulled Bobby from his thoughts. They got closer and closer, until they finally stopped outside his cell. Bobby heard the guard unlocking the door to his cell, and he knew he was getting a cell mate. Bobby felt a bolt of fear go through his body, he hoped that whoever was entering the cell wasn't one of the shouting, police hatingprisoners that he had passed as he walked down the cell block.Suddenly, the cell door swung open.
