  1. B.L. holds onto Daisy just a little bit tighter as Daisy starts to cry knowing it's tears of relief this time instead of worry and fear. B.L. gives Bo a wink of approval as he looks over at her and Daisy although she too wasn't happy with Bo's actions. Luke has stepped away from the rest of the group a few paces and sat down on the ground his legs having felt like they were going to collapse from under him. Trying to get his pounding heart and hard angry breathing under control. Jesse takes a few moments of his own to lean against a nearby tree and collect his ownself.
  2. Jesse eyes Bo with a critical eye checking for obvious injuries that Bo may be hiding but when nothing catches his eye an it seems the only thing wrong besides the arm is Bo's ragged breathing Jesse sighs relieved. By this time the troopers have the two henchmen cuffed and are escorting them up the hill back to the patrol cars. Alan shakes Jesse's hand in farewell as he prepares to follow his men. "Thanks Alan for all your help. Maybe we can get together sometime on a happier note." Cooter gives B.L. another brief hug as he turns going back up the hill to get the tow truck so he can tow the truck back to hazzard. B.L. steps over to Daisy wrapping an arm around her friend's waist. Luke hasn't said anything since just before Bo jumped. He's trying to get his warring emotions under control before speaking to Bo. He was worried Bo would get hurt seriously when he jumped now seeing there was no real damage Luke's worry has turned to anger at Bo for scaring him so badly after Bo made Luke promise he wouldn't beat the guys up on his word as a Duke only to do something as stupid as jumping on the moving truck when not fully recovered from the hospital stay and brief death experience.

  4. As the truck skids down the embankment Luke hits the ground running the troopers catching up and then making it to the truck pulling the two guys from the inside as Luke pulls Bo from the truck just as Uncle Jesse,Daisy,B.L. and Cooter reach them. Jesse taking Bo from Luke's grasp turns Bo to face him asking frantically "Bo are you ok" B.L. leans weakly with the relief against Cooter who wraps his arm around her shoulders hugging her close.
  5. "Wha............" Luke never gets to finish his question as Bo leaps from the window landing on the truck below. Luke's heart stops as he see's Bo from the corner of his eye. Mumbling to himself "If that didn't kill him I will" Luke surges ahead to the point where the two roads come together. Veering off the upper road onto the lower sliding to a sideways stop across the road in front of the truck giving it only two choices,stop or drive off the other side down the steep embankment.
  6. Luke grips the steering wheel so hard his knuckles turn white as he sees Bo half out the General's window. Keeping his eyes on the road ahead as he holds the car steady silently praying Bo doesn't fall. The fear that Bo will be hurt due to his weakened state comes through Luke's voice. "Bo what the hell are you doing get back in here before ya fall out and I run over ya"
  7. Luke is puzzled by Bo's words but seeing the widened eyes,he throws the general lee in reverse stepping on the gas hard doing a 180 before glancing back at Bo "You wanna tell me why we're runnin?"
  8. Jesse tenses in his seat as the headlights approach heading for Bo and Luke's position. Just as the truck gets even with the pickup the headlights of the troopers come on and sirens blare. The truck speeds up heading straight for the General. Luke pulls out blocking the road the approaching truck slams on the brakes,backs up and tries to get around the General but Luke quickly counter acts their move forcing them to turn back the way they came. Seeing a little sideroad the truck veers in that direction only to be met with more bright lights as Uncle Jesse and B.L. cut their lights on bright blinding the driver who stops as the troopers surround the truck jumping from their cars and pulling their weapons. Luke looks over at Bo grinning triumphantly "Looks like we did it"
  9. "That's an affirmative Bo" as the vehicle passes his hiding spot Cooter pulls out onto the road blocking it not bothering to turn on the lights to do so figuring the element of surpise if they try to escape that direction. Picking up the cb once again after getting into position "The backdoor is closed the rest is upto ya'll now"
  10. Luke grins in the dark he should have known Bo wouldn't let it be till he made that promise. "On my word as a Duke" The cb suddenly comes to life with Cooter's voice "Hey ya'll I think I see headlight's comin"
  11. Luke sighs resignedly wondering for the humteenth time in their lives how he let Bo talk him into things good or bad. "Alright Bo I won't touch 'em"
  12. Luke half smiles it's usually him trying to talk Bo into reason when he's in a temper. Only half joking knowing they don't have time to get into a big discussion over this and Bo needs him to be sensible and not let his emotions run his actions. "I'd feel alot better if I bashed their heads THEN they got put away for a good part if not the rest of their lives."
  13. For the second time that day Luke's mouth opens and closes like a fish at Bo's words. The fire dies in his eyes being replaced by defeat "No Bo that's not what I want at all I just......damn it Bo they had you so scared you couldn't tell me what was going on and then I was being a jackass and on your case which wasn't a real good way to get you to tell me what was wrong even if ya wanted to. I just wanna hurt them as bad as they hurt you and the rest of the family. But mostly you"
  14. Now it's Luke's turn to get the stubborn defiant look Bo had worn all day. Shaking his head he looks back at Bo his blue eyes having sparks in them even in the dark car. In the silence of the car his breath can be heard coming and going in angry puffs now that the worry he's felt all week has given way to pure and unconcealed hatred. "I can't promise that Bo not after what they've put you through,they almost killed you. I know they weren't there and they didn't shoot ya or nothin but they nearly killed ya just the same as if they had and I can't let that go so easy. I owe these guys at least a broken nose. I'd really love to break their necks."
  15. Luke raises his own arm gripping Bo's hand for a few minutes smiling reassuringly although he's not quite as calm as he appears to be. If they weren't in the General he'd be pacing or trotting nervously by now. "No goin back.....let's show these city dudes what happens when ya mess with Hazzard County folk, Dukes in particular."
  16. Cooter and the troopers hideout along the road waiting for the truck to come along so they can fence them in from their end. Cooter picks up his cb and tells Bo "Me and the troopers are ready to slam the backdoor when they come in." B.L. parks where Bo told her,shutting off the headlights tapping a nervous rythmn on the steeringwheel as she checks in with Bo "10-4 Bo ready and waitin here too"
  17. Luke is slightly suprised when Bo moves the hand from shoulder to elbow, knowing how important doing things on his own is for Bo right now. But seeing the underlying tiredness beneath the excitement Luke understands. At Bo's words and Daisy's questioning look B.L. slides back in her window sticking an arm out giving a thumbs up that she remembers what it meant. The sad look in Bo's eyes when he asks Luke to help him get in the car makes Luke's heart do a flip flop. That one quiet question had to have practically killed Bo but with a nod and shakey smile of his own Luke discreetly lifted Bo's legs helping him slide into the General. Scrambling across the hood and sliding in the driver's seat. Silently cursing the men once again,this isn't how it's supposed to be it should be Bo driving and him giving orders. Cooter explained to Alan what Bo's signal meant before the agent and troopers got in their cars as he gets in the tow truck. Once everyone is ready to go Luke pulls out with Uncle Jesse not far behind leading the procession to the designated place and getting into position.
  18. Luke smiles proudly as Bo gives out everyone's orders. Even though he's trembling and fear can be detected ever so slightly in his eyes Bo isn't letting on making Luke all the prouder. Everyone nods or says something to let Bo know they understand their jobs. Still wanting to give Bo support but not seem overly protective Luke puts a steadying hand on Bo's shoulder as everyone goes to their vehicles. Not sure Bo can quite make it in the General without help Luke waits to see if Bo will ask for help. Jesse climbs in his old pickup with a mixture of fear and the excitement of the younger folk. Although Bo seems to be ok Jesse still thinks he's much too sick to be participating,but realizing how important it is for Bo in order to get his life back together he doesn't say anything. Just waits for the General to pull out intending to be second in line so he's closest to Bo. B.L. climbs in the window of Red Fury forgoing the use of the door as she usually does it being quicker this way. Starting the car she taps the gas pedal revving the motor slightly the closer it gets to the showdown the antsier she is getting. Looking at her cb she remembers suddenly that nothing was mentioned about keeping in touch so sliding back out of the car onto the window ledge to ask the boys "We need to keep in touch so we know where these goons are what channel ya'll on?" Cooter is drawing a quick map to show the troopers where all the best hiding places are as they wait for the others to get ready to go.
  19. Luke pats Bo on the back grinning proud of the fact the Agent is so impressed with his youngest cousin's plan. Claps once as Bo asks is everyone ready "Let's get the show on the road" Jesse nods a brief flutter of anxiety goes through his stomach but he takes a deep breath getting it under control smiling at the youngsters around him. "Let's teach those city boys a lesson they won't soon forget" B.L. for the first time has a gleam of retribution in her eye. It really hitting home how they had almost destroyed Bo as she sees a glimmer of the old Bo behind the pale face and dark circles under the eyes. "Ready as I'll ever be" Cooter eyes flash with revenge, eager to get his hands on the goons taking a piece of their hide for his own. "Ready Freddy"
  20. Luke grins catching the excitement of both his cousins he's just itching to teach the thugs a lesson they won't soon forget. Noticing Bo preparing to stand he holds out his hand to help same as any other time not intending to do more than give Bo's arm a gentle but firm jerk to assist him to his feet. Suddenly mindful that Bo needs to appear in good health from this point on especially if the men who put him in this weakened state get a look at him so that they can see they didn't succeed in getting Bo down. Mutters to himself more than the others "Let's get this show on the road" Uncle Jesse walks out to greet his friend Alan Dredson from the state police. Shaking the agents hand "Alan it's goot ta see ya again, thanks for helpin us" Cooter pulls up a fraction of a second after the state police quickly jumping out of the tow truck striding toward the barn where everyone is congregated. Giving Daisy and B.L. both a hug and shaking the boys hands. "Lookin good Bo, sorry I didn't make it to the hospital but I was swamped at the Garage. Lucas lookin a little peaked there buddy" "I'm ok Coot be alot better when this is all over." Cooter and the girls nod knowing exactly what Luke means.
  21. Luke smiles greatfully as Bo obeys without protest, he just hopes that Bo's in a cooperative mood tonight if things get ugly and there's a chase on foot and ensuing fist fight because there is no way he will let Bo out of the car to participate. That was the agreement that Bo got to go along was he stayed in the car and Luke intends to hold him to that promise. After making sure they have everything needed to make the arrows, Luke takes a seat on a bale of hay opposite Bo. Picking up an arrow and stick of dynamite. Uncle Jesse kisses Daisy's temple in silent thanks but lets the conversation drop as they are in earshot of the boys now. "You boys got things ready to go?" Luke looks up smiling as he nods "Yes sir, I just thought we might need a few more dynamite arrows." Jesse nods approvingly "Good idea" Inside the house as the cb crackles to life B.L. rolls off the couch to her knees startled at the sudden sound interrupting her sleep. "Craaaazy Cooter comin atcha any you Duke's home on the hazzardnet come on" Seeing and picking up the note B.L. reads it before getting to her feet and rushing over to the cb in the kitchen picking up the mic. "Crazy C ya got tinkerbell here what's up" The cb crackles again as Cooter keys his mic answering "Hey cousin, I was just wonderin how the lost sheep was and if things are all set for the rendesvous tonight." B.L. keys the mic answering not wanting to give too much information over the hazzardnet in case the theifs are listening "That's a big 10-4 we're just waiting on you and the other contestants of tonights game. The lost sheep is doing better than expected he's feeling his oats today." Cooter can be heard laughing before he answers "Can't keep that boy down for long.....I'll be there in 5, Crazy C down and gone" B.L. laughs at Cooter's assessment of Bo's ability to bounce back "10-4 Crazy C, Tinkerbell over and out" After hanging up the cb mic B.L. goes out the back door wandering over to the barn where the note said everyone was. "Hey ya'll Cooter just hollered on the cb and said he'd be here in 5 minutes" Uncle Jesse nods relieved things are about to get underway soon so this whole mess can be over. Luke looks up as he finishes another arrow. "Thanks for the info B.L."
  22. Once inside the barn Luke guides Bo to a bail of hay gently but firmly depositing him there,although Bo won't say it the day has been long and beginning to catch up with him,but there's still things to do so Luke is bound and determined to make sure Bo at least takes it easy before things get underway pointing a warning finger at Bo before issuing an order in his best Marine tone of voice. "Stay put" After issuing the order Luke gathers arrows,a box of dynamite and a roll of duct tape bringing them back to Bo to construct the dynamite arrows. Jesse drawing in a deep breath as they exit into the yard lets it out slowly and some of the day's frustrations with it. Then giving Daisy a quizzical look asks "Scared for me?" They meander across the yard really in no hurry entering the barn after Luke has set Bo to work on the arrows. Jesse is at least relieved to see Luke has gotten Bo something to do that he can do sitting still instead of being up moving around.
  23. Swinging Bo's legs off the General, Luke gives his hands a gentle tug to get him on his feet. Laying an arm across Bo's shoulders the two make their way slowly to the barn. Jesse returned the smile as he got to his feet "Girl if you don't beat all first ya so mad at Bo for his defiance ya walk on him now ya tellin me not to be too hard on him." Kisses Daisy's forehead before wrapping an arm around her waist as they leave the room going to get ready for the night's events "Don't worry I'm hopin after everythin is said and done I can just scare him good tomorra without resortin to actually switchin him."
  24. Luke hugs Bo best he can with the two of them laying on the General's hood. "Your welcome cuz....I'll be glad when this is all over and things can get back to normal....well what passes for normal in Hazzard anyway." Luke looks at his watch to see how long it is before things get going. "Won't be long now till things get underway. Cooter and the troopers should be here soon." Uncle Jesse smiles a real smile this time "I know Dais, I ain't never doubted a day in you kids lives that ya didn't love me as much as I love ya'll." In the meantime while alone B.L. has dozed off truly being relaxed for the first time in a week.
